0:00The man awoke to find himself in a
0:02magnificent palace shrouded in ethereal
0:04mist and exquisitly decorated. Inside
0:07there were some instruments that
0:08appeared to possess magical powers.
0:10Before him lay an elixir as white as
0:12chocolate. The man was utterly stunned
0:14and couldn't help but slap himself
0:16twice. He was certain it was real.
0:18Before he could recover, fragmented
0:20memories flooded back like a tide.
0:22Tanuan realm, daunting immortal sect,
0:25outer disciples. He quickly regained his
0:28memories. This is a cultivation world
0:30called Tan Yuan. Such Chanqing is an
0:32outer disciple of the Donging immortal
0:35sect. Because he awakened the wood
0:36spirit route, he was assigned to the
0:38spirit field. Unexpectedly, after a long
0:41period of confusion, he finally
0:43unraveled the mystery of his birth and
0:46awakened the wisdom of his past life.
0:48Not bad at all. Reincarnated and still
0:51in a world of cultivation. Isn't this
0:53exactly what I've always longed for?
0:55Such Chanqin climbed out of the hard
0:57wooden bed, his face full of excitement.
1:00He had dreamed of cultivating
1:01immortality in his previous life, and
1:03now he could finally realize it. Knock,
1:06knock, knock. Suddenly, there was a
1:08knock on the door. Such Chongqing
1:10neither opened the door nor spoke, but
1:12merely stared wearily at the entrance.
1:14He wasn't used to this place yet, so
1:16being cautious was always a good idea. A
1:18slightly familiar voice came from
1:20outside the door. I'm senior brother
1:22Jeang, who's in charge of the
1:23assessment. Jangir. Su Chongqing quickly
1:26recognized the man and instinctively
1:28took a step back. Jangir said, "I know
1:31you're in there. You failed the test and
1:33you failed twice in a row." Su Chongqing
1:35immediately thought of the formal
1:37disciple assessment. One moo of spirit
1:39rice must produce at least 1,000 gene of
1:42spirit rice with a time limit of three
1:44quarters. As long as he succeeds in one
1:46quarter, he can become a formal
1:48disciple. However, the original Su
1:51Chongqing, because he gradually
1:53unraveled the mystery of his birth when
1:55he awakened his spiritual root, was
1:57sometimes clear-headed and sometimes
1:59confused, resulting in extremely poor
2:01comprehension. While others could learn
2:03the evergreen technique in a month or
2:05even as quickly as 10 days or half a
2:07month, Su Chonqing took a full 2 months
2:09to reach the first level, thus failing
2:11for the first time. The second attempt
2:14started well, but problems arose in the
2:16middle stage with the rice, leading to a
2:18drop in yield. In the end, the yield was
2:20only 900 gene, 100 gene short of
2:23success, resulting in another failure.
2:26The daunting immortal sect has a rule
2:28that if someone fails three times in a
2:30row, they will not only be unable to
2:32become a formal disciple, but will also
2:34be expelled from the sect. Therefore,
2:36Such Chonqing only has one last chance.
2:38If he failed, he would either have to
2:40join a minor sect. In any case, Su
2:43Chongqing was unwilling to leave. The
2:45daunting immortal sect was one of the
2:47three top tier immortal sects in the
2:48Tianuan realm. In terms of resources,
2:51magic, and social status, none of these
2:54can compare to those of branch sects,
2:56unorthodox sects, or immortal
2:57cultivation families. You only have one
3:00last chance. Think carefully about what
3:02I said before. Seeing that there was no
3:04response from inside, Jangir turned and
3:06left after speaking. After a long while,
3:09the wooden door creaked open. Su
3:11Chongqing glanced inside to make sure
3:12the other person was gone before opening
3:14the door and going out. As soon as Su
3:17Chongqing stepped out of the cramped
3:18room, he was immediately struck by the
3:20visual impact of the spirit fields. As
3:23far as the eye could see, there were
3:24endless fields stretching as far as the
3:26eye could see. He arrived at his
3:28destination shortly after. The entire
3:30spirit field had already been harvested
3:33with only three inferior spirit rice
3:35stocks remaining in a corner. Such
3:37Chonqing stepped forward to examine them
3:39closely. Such Chongqing activated the
3:41Chongqing technique and a layer of pale
3:44blue spiritual energy appeared on his
3:46right hand. He touched the inferior
3:48spiritual rice in front of him and
3:50quickly received a response.
3:51Malnutrition. He decided to get one and
3:54carry it with him, then asked someone
3:56for advice. But as soon as it broke, he
3:58heard a ding in his mind. Harvest one
4:00inferior spiritual rice plant lifespan
4:03plus one day. The system has detected
4:05that the host has solved the mystery of
4:07their birth and awakened their past life
4:09wisdom. Meeting the activation
4:11conditions, the Shinong system is
4:13activated immediately. The attribute
4:16panel appeared before Su Choning<unk>s
4:18eyes. Remaining lifespan 1826 days due
4:22to awakening innate wisdom and the
4:24system. It will be restored later. Wood
4:26spirit root effect one affinity with
4:29plants. Earlyq chi refining stage effect
4:32one increase stamina. Evergreen
4:34technique level one. Effect one,
4:36cultivation speed plus 10%. Effect two,
4:40touching plants can determine their
4:41basic status. Consume 1,66 days of
4:45lifespan to upgrade the evergreen
4:47technique from level one to level two.
4:49Such Choning<unk>s eyes lit up. This was
4:51his cheat code. Aside from the one that
4:53had just been broken, two stocks
4:55remained in front of him. He tried to
4:57break the remaining two inferior spirit
4:59rice stocks. Harvest one inferior spirit
5:02rice plant lifespan plus one day. Su
5:04Chonqing immediately looked at the
5:06attribute panel. Sure enough, the
5:08remaining lifespan line had changed. The
5:10lifespan increased from 1826 days to
5:141828 days. Such Chonqing was shocked to
5:16realize that the function of this cheat
5:18was to harvest mature spiritual plants
5:20to gain lifespan and then consume
5:22lifespan to upgrade the cultivation
5:24techniques he had already learned.
5:26Wouldn't that mean endless farming and
5:28endless enjoyment? farming every single
5:30day. With such a cheat-like ability, he
5:33could even outlive immortals. Just as he
5:35was lost in thought, a familiar voice
5:37rang out again. Junior brother Sue. Huh?
5:40Su Chongqing snapped out of his days and
5:42looked over alertly at the sound. A
5:44young man dressed in white with a blue
5:46rice seedling tattooed on his chest was
5:48smiling at him. In the Daunting immortal
5:51sect, only formal disciples wear white
5:53robes. Outer disciples can only wear
5:55gray. It's you again. Su Chongqing
5:58quickly recognized the other person as
6:00Jangir, the senior brother who had
6:02knocked on the door earlier during the
6:03assessment. He thought the other party
6:05had already left, but he didn't expect
6:07to run into them here. Jeang asked with
6:09a half smile, "What's your decision?"
6:11"The spirit field." Su Chongqing
6:13decisively refused. "I won't hand it
6:15over." Once Su Chongqing becomes a
6:18formal disciple, he will receive a land
6:20deed for 1 acre of second grade spirit
6:22land. This represents a continuous
6:24stream of resources in the future. So,
6:26how could he easily give it up? First
6:28grade is the lowest. 9th grade is the
6:30highest. Jangir was surprised, still not
6:33handing it in. Yes. Su Chongqing nodded
6:36vigorously. Jeang air coaxed him gently.
6:39With my help, you can become a formal
6:41disciple. The only thing you'll lose is
6:43an acre of lowquality spirit field. Su
6:46Chanching questioned, "Is that all?"
6:48Jangir remained silent for a moment. Su
6:50Choning couldn't help but say, "Spirit
6:53fields represent resources. Even if one
6:55becomes a formal disciple of the Donging
6:58immortal sect without resources, how can
7:00he cultivate immortality? According to
7:03the regulations of the Donging immortal
7:05sect, formal disciples only need to
7:07submit 5,000 caddies of spirit rice or
7:10spirit plants of equivalent value each
7:12year. Any remaining output belongs to
7:14the individual. On the surface, Such
7:16Chonqing only lost an acre of low-grade
7:19spirit land. In reality, the other party
7:21was blatantly robbing him of his
7:23cultivation resources. Jangir raised an
7:26eyebrow, surprised that Su Chongqing had
7:28become so clever and then made a
7:30threatening remark. Su Chongqing said
7:32earnestly, "Thank you for your kindness,
7:34senior brother, but he wants to try
7:36again." Jeang sneered upon hearing this
7:39and blurted out, "Your spirit field
7:41can't possibly grow a thousand caddies
7:43of spirit rice." Perhaps realizing he
7:45had said the wrong thing, Jangir
7:47immediately shut up, but still sneered.
7:50Su Chongqing was taken aback and quickly
7:52asked, "How did you know?" Congr replied
7:54dismissively, "From experience." Su
7:57Chongqing wasn't stupid, so he naturally
7:59didn't believe it. Air continued,
8:02"Seeing how pitiful you are, your senior
8:04brother will show you some leniency. As
8:06long as you agree, you can become my
8:08tenant farmer and receive the most basic
8:10cultivation resources. Although it's
8:12little, it's enough for you at theQi
8:14refining stage. Jangir felt he was very
8:17kind. Other formal disciples wouldn't
8:19even be given resources. Su
8:21Chongqing<unk>s eyes were firm. I'll say
8:23it again. He wants to try again. Things
8:25are different now. With the system
8:27around, he's really not worried. Jeangs
8:30eyes turned slightly cold upon hearing
8:32this, but he didn't say anything more
8:34and turned to leave. Such Chongqing
8:36wasn't the only outer disciple he had
8:38his eye on. Such Chongqing calmly
8:40watched his opponent leave. The
8:41disparity in their status and strength
8:43was too great. He couldn't afford to
8:45offend them, nor could he defeat them,
8:47so he could only endure it for now. With
8:49his cheat-like abilities, he was sure
8:51he'd outlive his opponent. A thousand
8:53days passed in the blink of an eye, and
8:55the assessment was about to begin. Such
8:58Chongqing, clutching half a piece of
9:00spirit rice, soon returned to the outer
9:02sect disciples quarters. This time,
9:04however, he didn't return to his room,
9:06but walked in the other direction. A
9:08short while later, Su Chongqing arrived
9:10at a half-open door. Hearing faint
9:12sounds inside, he immediately asked, "Is
9:15senior brotherly in? Who is it?" Soon,
9:18the sound of footsteps grew closer. Then
9:20the half-open wooden door was pulled
9:22open, revealing a mature face filled
9:24with doubt. Su Chongqing smiled
9:26slightly. "It's me, Chongqing." Su
9:29Chonqing. Li Sanankai barely recognized
9:31him and then asked, "What do you want
9:33with me? Everyone says that senior
9:35brother Lee is very powerful and has
9:37already mastered the Chongqing technique
9:40to the second level. So I would like to
9:41ask you to take a look at the condition
9:43of this spirit rice. Su Chongqing said
9:46handing over the spirit rice in his
9:48hand. Is this the inferior spirit rice
9:50you grew? Liengai took it with a
9:52surprised look and a layer of denser
9:54light blue spiritual power quickly
9:56appeared in his palm. Such Choning
9:59quickly asked, "How is it? Lack of
10:01nutrition, lack of water, and
10:03insufficient spiritual energy. Li
10:05Sanankai blurted out. Is this why my
10:07yield is insufficient? Such Chanqing
10:09frowned upon hearing this. Yes. Leani
10:12nodded. Logically speaking, a normal
10:14grade one spirit field shouldn't be like
10:16this. Such Chonqing pondered. You mean
10:19there's a problem with the spirit field?
10:21Lienkai guessed. Judging from the
10:23current situation, there's a high
10:25probability that there's a problem with
10:26your acre of spirit field. Su Chanqing
10:29quickly pressed. Is there a solution? If
10:31you have connections, you can go to the
10:33water elemental disciples in the water
10:35pavilion and ask them to come and cast
10:37the minor cloud rain technique. Or you
10:39can go to the earth vein area and find
10:42the earth elemental disciples and ask
10:44them to come and loosen the soil. Li
10:47replied. Is there any other way? Suching
10:49asked looking slightly troubled. Leankai
10:52nodded slightly. Yes. What wet? Su
10:55Choning<unk>s eyes lit up. Li Sanankai
10:57immediately said, "Upgrade the Chongqing
11:00technique to the second level and the
11:02production will also increase. Upgrade
11:04to the second level, huh?" Such Chonqing
11:06used, "It seems you only have one chance
11:08left." Lienkai looked at him with a
11:11complicated expression. Yes. Such
11:13Chonqing gave an awkward smile. Good
11:16luck. Liang Kai returned the halfeaten
11:18spirit rice to him and then closed the
11:20door. "Thank you, senior brother." Such
11:22Chongqing bowed respectfully to express
11:24his gratitude. Back in his room, he
11:27looked at the halfeaten spirit rice in
11:28his hand, pondering the three solutions
11:31senior brotherly had given him.
11:32Currently, only by improving his
11:34Chongqing technique, could he solve his
11:36immediate problem as for seeking out
11:38disciples of the earth vein and water
11:40pavilion. Firstly, he lacked the
11:42connections and secondly, it would take
11:44time. Conversely, the lost lifespan
11:47could be recovered by harvesting
11:48spiritual plants, so this cost was
11:50negligible to him. It's always good to
11:52have powerful backers. Having chosen the
11:55path of cultivation, he couldn't easily
11:57leave a top tier cultivation sect like
11:59Daunting. So many people yearn for it
12:01but can't get the chance. They want to
12:03join but have no opportunity. Would you
12:05like to consume 1,66 days of your
12:08lifespan to upgrade the evergreen
12:10technique from level one to level two?
12:12The prompt appeared again. Yes, Su
12:15Chongqing readily agreed. Suddenly, a
12:17wealth of experience and techniques
12:19related to the evergreen technique
12:21flooded into my mind. successfully
12:23consumed 1,066
12:25days of lifespan, upgrading the
12:27evergreen technique to level two. Such
12:29Chongqing looked at the attribute panel
12:31again. Remaining lifespan 762 days.
12:35Chongqing technique second level. Effect
12:37one, cultivation speed plus 20%. Effect
12:41two, yield increase plus 10%. Effect
12:44three, detailed diagnosis of spirit
12:46plant status. The effects after the
12:48upgrade were indeed vastly different,
12:50and the second level really did increase
12:52production. Senior Brother Lee was
12:54right. Such Chonqing smiled. Next, he
12:56sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.
12:59However, it was discovered that while
13:01the cultivation speed had indeed
13:02increased, the concentration of what
13:04elemental energy in the room was far too
13:07thin. The next day arrived. The sun had
13:09just risen, and Su Chongqing<unk>s
13:11breakfast consisted of a bowl of thin
13:13porridge and a small dish of pickled
13:15vegetables. The food was only enough to
13:17fill their stomachs and offered no help
13:19to their cultivation. There was nothing
13:21they could do. This was the condition
13:23for outer disciples. Just then a
13:25commotion arose outside. It turned out
13:27that some people were leaving. Whether
13:29they succeeded or failed the assessment,
13:31they could not remain here. However, the
13:33number of outer disciples did not
13:35decrease. On the contrary, it increased.
13:38As one of the three top tier cultivation
13:40sects, the Donging immortal sect had no
13:42shortage of people. Several familiar
13:44faces around Su Chongqing disappeared,
13:47replaced by a host of unfamiliar ones.
13:49Since he didn't know him, he didn't
13:51bother to talk to him. After finishing
13:53breakfast, Su Chongqing carried his hoe
13:55and headed to the spirit fields. There
13:57were only 3 days left before the
13:59official start of the third quarter
14:01assessment. This time, success is the
14:04only option. Failure is not an option.
14:06Therefore, the preparations before
14:08planting the spirit rice are absolutely
14:10essential. The first step is to till the
14:12soil. This is done to improve the
14:14erration of the spirit field and
14:16incidentally to bury weeds and existing
14:19roots in the soil to decompose. My god,
14:22Linen actually invited a disciple with
14:24an earth elemental root to help him.
14:26He's really going all out. Even if it's
14:28just an outer disciple with an earth
14:30elemental root, he should still get 10
14:32low-grade spirit stones, right? He
14:34traded one/tenth of the harvest for a
14:36long-term partnership. The crowd erupted
14:38in astonishment. Such Chongqing stood
14:41before the spirit field, his gaze
14:42drifting to the other side. Lynn and
14:45spiritual field was not far away, and a
14:47young man was accompanying him. This
14:49person should be the earth elemental
14:51disciple that everyone was talking
14:52about. He looked tall and imposing.
14:55Soon, the earth elemental disciple
14:57stepped barefoot into the spirit field.
14:59As he walked forward, the ground
15:01trembled, accompanied by continuous bang
15:04sounds. He was incredibly efficient. In
15:06just a short while, he had already
15:08finished most of it. While others were
15:10working themselves to the bone, Linen
15:12hadn't even broken a sweat, leaving
15:14everyone around him speechless with
15:16amazement. However, it must be admitted
15:18that Lin Anne<unk>s move was indeed
15:20clever. Not only did it increase his
15:22chances of becoming a formal disciple,
15:24it also bound him to other disciples
15:26with different spiritual roots. Although
15:28they lost some of their harvest, they
15:30gained a partner. Su Chongqing saw this
15:32and was very interested and also began
15:34to consider cooperating. As soon as he
15:37was about to ask, everyone around him
15:39swarmed forward and he couldn't get a
15:40turn at all. Even the disciple with the
15:42earth elemental root was surprised, not
15:45expecting to be so popular. Chapter 3.
15:48Farming is chi refining using it as the
15:50foundation of the Dao. Three days passed
15:52in the blink of an eye and the third
15:54quarter was about to begin. Su Chongqing
15:57and the others lined up to receive
15:58spirit seedlings only to see that
16:01familiar face again. Jeangier looked at
16:03him with a half smile. Junior brother
16:05Su, this is your last chance. Have you
16:07thought it through? Su Chongqing
16:09suppressed his disgust and replied
16:11expressionlessly. Thank you for your
16:13kindness, senior brother. Jeang smile
16:16vanished instantly, and his eyes turned
16:18cold. He thought he had already given Su
16:20Chongqing a chance to become a full-time
16:22employee, but the other party repeatedly
16:24refused, and he immediately made a
16:26mental note of it. Su Chongqing didn't
16:29want to waste any more time, so he only
16:31reminded him, "Spirit seedling." Jeang
16:34snorted and casually tossed over the
16:36small storage bag containing the spirit
16:37seedling. After receiving the item, Su
16:40Chongqing did not leave immediately.
16:42Instead, he opened the storage bag and
16:44carefully sensed the contents with his
16:46spiritual power. Only after confirming
16:48that the spirit seedling was safe, did
16:50he turn and leave. Before long, he
16:53arrived at the first great spirit field
16:55he was managing, only to find someone
16:57already standing by the field. Su
16:59Chongqing recognized him at a glance. It
17:01was the Earth Spirit Route disciple who
17:03had previously loosened the soil for
17:05linen. He had originally planned to look
17:07for this person, but unexpectedly, the
17:09other party came to his door on his own
17:11initiative. Seeing Su Chongqing
17:13approach, the man asked with a smile,
17:15"Fellow Dowist, is this the spirit field
17:18you manage?" Su Chongqing nodded, "Yes."
17:21The man then introduced himself, "My
17:23name is Han Su, a disciple with the
17:25Earth spirit route." Su Chonqing calmly
17:28replied, "Su Chongqing." Han Su glanced
17:31at the spirit field, and said directly,
17:33"Fellow Daist Su, something's not right
17:35with this spirit field of yours." Su
17:38Chongqing immediately asked, "What did
17:40you notice?" Han Su didn't rush to
17:42answer, but instead asked, "If I'm not
17:44mistaken, is your yield low and the
17:46spiritual plants not growing well?" Su
17:49Chongqing<unk>s heart sank, and he
17:50quickly pressed for the reason. Han Su
17:52then slowly explained that he had
17:54awakened an earth spirit route, making
17:56him very sensitive to the Earth's
17:58energy, and that the Earth's energy in
18:00this spiritual field had clearly been
18:02partially drained away. Such Chanqing
18:04took a deep breath, finally confirming
18:06his suspicions. No wonder Jeang Air kept
18:09pestering him and was so certain he
18:11wouldn't pass the third test. It turned
18:13out he already knew there was something
18:14wrong with this field. Even this matter
18:16itself might be inextricably linked to
18:19Jeang Air. Seeing Su Chongqing<unk>s
18:21silence, Han Su<unk>s eyes flashed with
18:23a sly glint, and he offered, "I can help
18:26you replenish the earth's energy." Su
18:28Chongqing knew very well that there was
18:29no such thing as a free lunch, so he
18:32asked directly, "What's the price?" Han
18:34Su blurted out, "10 low-grade spirit
18:36stones or onetenth of each harvest." Su
18:39Chongqing refused without hesitation. "I
18:42don't have any spirit stones, and I
18:44can't even get onetenth of the harvest."
18:46Although he needed help, it didn't mean
18:48he would let others take advantage of
18:49him. Once he becomes a formal disciple,
18:52he will receive 1 acre of grade two
18:54spirit field, at which point the yield
18:56will at least double. 1/10enth may not
18:58sound like much, but that's 200 caddies
19:00of grade two spirit rice. If it were
19:02just a one-time deal, he might have
19:04gritted his teeth and agreed. But Han Su
19:07insisted on a share of the profits every
19:09time, clearly knowing he was eager to
19:11get a permanent position. Han Su
19:13blinked, still wanting to persuade him.
19:15Fellow Dowist Su, as long as you can
19:17become a formal disciple, what is this
19:19loss? Su Chongqing replied seriously,
19:22that's precisely why it's impossible.
19:24Han Su shrugged and said, "That's how
19:26Linen and I cooperate." Su Chongqing
19:29remained unmoved. He is him and I am me.
19:32He said this firmly, which also made his
19:35bottom line clear. Seeing his firm
19:37stance and unwilling to give up the
19:38deal, Han Su could only ask, "Then what
19:41do you suggest?" Su Chongqing said in a
19:43deep voice, "You will get onetenth of
19:45this cooperation, and we<unk>ll talk
19:47about it later." He genuinely couldn't
19:49afford spirit stones right now, so he
19:51could only use this season's harvest to
19:53get the other party to help. Han Su was
19:55stunned for a moment, clearly not
19:57expecting Su Chongqing to put such a
19:59tough demand on him. Su Chongqing added,
20:01"Don't forget, you're not the only one
20:03who has awakened the Earth's spiritual
20:05root." Han Su<unk>s eyes darted around,
20:08and after a moment's consideration, he
20:10finally nodded in agreement. He also
20:12knew that not everyone could be as
20:14willing to bleed as Linen. Since he
20:16could earn something, even a small
20:18amount, it was better than leaving
20:19empty-handed. Su Choning gestured,
20:22"Begin your performance." Han Su
20:24grinned, took off his shoes, stepped
20:26barefoot into the spirit field, and then
20:28immediately cast the earth pulling
20:30technique. Because Su Chongqing had
20:33already cleared the weeds, and loosened
20:34the soil, Han Soo saved a lot of effort.
20:37What he needed to do was to guide the
20:39free floating earth elemental energy
20:41into the ground to replenish the earth's
20:43energy that had been drained. As the
20:45earth's spiritual energy flowed into the
20:47field, the previously depleted earth
20:50energy gradually recovered and the soil
20:52of the spiritual field regained its
20:54nutrients. Such Chonqing watched this
20:56unfold and finally breathed a sigh of
20:58relief. As long as the earth's energy is
21:01replenished, the subsequent yield will
21:03increase. In this way, even if the
21:05spirit rise grows better, no one will
21:07suspect that he has some kind of cheat
21:09code. Not long after, Han Su returned to
21:12the edge of the field, his face somewhat
21:14shallow. Su Chonqing noticed his poor
21:16condition and asked, "Are you all
21:18right?" Han Su waved his hand, saying he
21:20had simply absorbed too much Earth's
21:22spiritual energy. Then, Han Su took out
21:25a yellow talisman, preparing to sign a
21:27contract with Su Chonqing. The two wrote
21:30their names down, and then each squeezed
21:32out a drop of blood and pressed it onto
21:34the talisman. The yellow talisman
21:36quickly emitted a layer of spiritual
21:38light, signifying that the cooperation
21:40had officially taken effect. If Su
21:42Chongqing breached the contract, Han Su
21:44could simply hand over the talisman to
21:46the sect steward to receive the
21:48spiritual rice he was entitled to. Even
21:50if Su Chongqing fails the assessment and
21:53cannot become a formal disciple, this
21:55talisman will still be valid. Although
21:57it is only first grade spirit rice, it
22:00is still very precious to outer
22:01disciples. Han Su put away the talisman
22:04and smiled with satisfaction. It's been
22:06a pleasure working together. Please come
22:08to me again next time. After all, the
22:10spirit rice contains spiritual energy,
22:13and long-term consumption can slowly
22:15increase spiritual power. He didn't lose
22:17out on this deal. After Han Su left, Su
22:20Chongqing watched his retreating figure,
22:22his eyes slightly narrowed. Jangir was
22:24the most ruthless, wanting to devour him
22:26entirely. Han Su was slightly better,
22:29but still wanted to take a tenth of him.
22:31Without his cheat-like abilities, Su
22:33Chongqing would probably have had no
22:35choice but to bow his head and
22:36compromise. But things are different
22:38now. He doesn't want to merely survive.
22:40He wants to use this spiritual field to
22:42truly complete his third assessment.
22:44Next, Su Chongqing, like the other outer
22:47disciples with wood elemental roots,
22:49began planting spirit seedlings around
22:51the spirit field. However, planting was
22:54not simply a matter of inserting the
22:55seedlings into the soil. They must first
22:58envelop the spirit seedling with their
23:00meager spiritual energy before planting
23:02it. It may seem like just an extra step,
23:04but it consumes a tremendous amount of
23:06spiritual energy. However, this is
23:08actually one of the methods of chi
23:10refining. For these disciples with wood
23:12elemental roots, farming itself is
23:14cultivation. Farming is essentially
23:16refining chi. In the early stages ofqi
23:19refinement, one only has a trace of
23:21spiritual power within their body
23:23through continuous consumption and
23:25recovery. The spiritual power gradually
23:27increases until it reaches nine traces.
23:30He still needs a large amount of wood
23:32elemental energy to truly break through.
23:34As time passed, the once empty spirit
23:37field gradually filled with spirit
23:38seedlings. Such Choning's spiritual
23:41power also slowly increased from the
23:43initial three strands to six strands.
23:45The moment he enveloped the last spirit
23:48seedling with spiritual power and
23:50inserted it into the soil, the entire
23:52spirit field suddenly changed and all
23:54the spirit seedlings resonated
23:56simultaneously. The seedlings began to
23:58grow at a visible speed and the wood's
24:00spiritual energy in the air rapidly
24:02became denser. The other spirit fields
24:05were the same. Initially just a few
24:07scattered plots, they eventually merged
24:09into a large expanse. In the end, all
24:12the spirit seedlings released a rich
24:14wood spirit energy as they grew. The
24:16outer disciples on the field ridges were
24:18all excited and sat down to cultivate.
24:20Some exclaimed with delight, "The wood
24:22elemental energy is so strong this
24:24time." Others were looking forward to a
24:27breakthrough, but were immediately
24:28dampened by others. Without reaching the
24:30second level of the evergreen technique,
24:32it's impossible to break through. There
24:34are three stages in farming
24:36corresponding to rise, stability, and
24:38decline. The wood elemental energy rises
24:41during the seedling stage, remains
24:43stable during the growth stage, and
24:45begins to decline during the harvest
24:47stage. Therefore, for disciples with
24:49wood elemental roots, the growth and
24:51stability stages are the most beneficial
24:53as they can absorb rich wood elemental
24:55energy every day, and their cultivation
24:57will improve rapidly during these two
24:59stages. Such Chonqing also began
25:02circulating the evergreen technique, and
25:04his feeling could be summed up in one
25:06word, exhilarating. After the evergreen
25:08technique reached the second level, it
25:10increased his cultivation speed by 20%.
25:13While others absorbed elemental energy
25:15like sips of water, Su Chongqing felt as
25:18if he were gulping it down. A massive
25:20amount of wood elemental energy was
25:22drawn to him and surged into his body.
25:24Although he had failed the first two
25:26tests, his spiritual power had already
25:28reached a certain level due to his
25:30continuous accumulation during this
25:31period. Now with the surge of massive
25:34wood elemental energy, changes
25:36immediately occurred. A soft sound
25:38seemed to resonate within his body and
25:40the six strands of spiritual energy
25:42began to rapidly split, quickly becoming
25:44nine. Normally, one should stop at this
25:47point and pause for a while. However,
25:49with the cultivation speed boost, the
25:51nine strands of spiritual energy did not
25:53stop. Instead, they gradually converged
25:56and intertwined like thin snakes,
25:59constantly impacted by the wood
26:00elemental energy. As the spiritual power
26:03became more and more solid, the
26:05originally weak threads eventually
26:07merged into a stronger strand. Nine
26:10threads transformed into one strand. The
26:12quantity had decreased, but the
26:14concentration had at least doubled. Such
26:16Chanqing suddenly opened his eyes, his
26:18heart filled with astonishment. I broke
26:20through. He didn't dare to delay and
26:23immediately checked his attribute panel.
26:25The panel displays Su Chongqing male 18
26:28years old remaining lifespan for,414
26:32days with spirit root mid-stage chi
26:34refining and adds the following effects.
26:37Increased stamina and increased blood
26:39and chi add 10 years to my lifespan.
26:42Such choning<unk>s eyes widened.
26:43Immediately afterward, a notification
26:45popped up on the panel. Evergreen
26:47technique level two. Consume 2,600 days
26:51of lifespan to upgrade evergreen
26:53technique from level two to level three.
26:56Chapter four, spiritual power divided in
26:58two. First encounter with Shiao Yunyu.
27:00Do you wish to consume 2,600 days of
27:03lifespan to upgrade the second level of
27:06the evergreen technique to the third
27:07level? Faced with the system prompt, Su
27:10Chongqing did not hesitate at all and
27:12directly chose yes. The next moment, a
27:15flood of experience and techniques
27:17related to the evergreen technique
27:19rushed into his mind as if he had been
27:21diligently cultivating for many years.
27:23Not long after, the upgrade ended and
27:25the system notification reappeared.
27:27Successfully consumed 2,600 days of
27:30lifespan to upgrade the evergreen
27:32technique to level three. Remaining
27:34lifespan 1814 days. The effects of the
27:37evergreen technique level three have
27:40also changed increasing cultivation
27:42speed by 30%. Production increased by
27:4520% and it could even predict and
27:47diagnose problems with spiritual plants.
27:50Such Chanqing couldn't help but gasp.
27:52Just a few days ago, he was still that
27:54outer disciple who had failed
27:55assessments repeatedly and whom everyone
27:57thought had no hope. But now both his
28:00cultivation level and magical abilities
28:02are approaching the level of a formal
28:04disciple. All of this happened too fast.
28:06So fast it felt like a dream. Just then
28:09the surrounding disciples also noticed
28:11something was wrong. A buzz of
28:12discussion arose, wondering why the wood
28:15elemental energy had suddenly diminished
28:17when it had been so abundant just
28:19moments before. Some looked grim,
28:21lamenting that if there had been more
28:23wood elemental energy, they might have
28:25been able to break through.
28:26Unfortunately, in the end, only Su
28:28Chongqing truly reaped the greatest
28:30benefit from this opportunity. However,
28:33Su Chongqing was neither smug nor
28:35boastful. Instead, he deliberately kept
28:37a low profile. He understood very well
28:40that while the Shinong system was
28:41incredibly powerful, it didn't mean he
28:43was invincible. Before truly maturing,
28:46keeping a low profile is the safest
28:48choice. In the days that followed, Su
28:50Chongqing, like other outer disciples,
28:53worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.
28:55appearing to be nothing special. After
28:58breakfast that day, he came to the
28:59spirit rice field again. Looking at the
29:01spirit rice, which was much stronger
29:03than the previous season, Su Chongqing
29:05finally felt more at ease. The first two
29:08assessments failed because once the
29:10comprehension was too slow, causing the
29:12opportunity to be missed, and the other
29:14time, it was due to a lack of experience
29:17coupled with problems with the spirit
29:18field itself. But this time, the
29:21situation is completely different. Han
29:23Su has already replenished the earth's
29:25energy, allowing the spiritual fields
29:27nutrients to recover. He himself has
29:29also entered the mid-stage ofQi
29:31refining, making his senses more acute.
29:33Combined with the effects of the three
29:35layers of the evergreen technique,
29:37barring any unforeseen circumstances,
29:39the yield will definitely exceed 1,000
29:42caddies. Even exceeding a thousand
29:44caddies wouldn't be a problem. But Su
29:46Chonqing didn't want to go too far. He
29:48only planned to keep the production at a
29:50little over a thousand caddies, just
29:52enough to meet the assessment
29:53requirements and successfully become a
29:55formal disciple. After all, making too
29:58conspicuous a move would easily arouse
30:00suspicion. He then sat cross-legged on
30:02the edge of the field and began his
30:04daily cultivation, circulating the third
30:06level of the evergreen technique. The
30:08wood elemental energy released by the
30:10spiritual rice was quickly absorbed into
30:13his body. A moment later, the wisp of
30:15spiritual energy that Su Chongqing
30:17originally possessed actually split into
30:19two wisps which slowly circulated
30:21between his meridians. As his spiritual
30:24energy circulated, a few impurities were
30:26expelled from his pores. Such Chanqing
30:29was overjoyed, clearly feeling that he
30:31had become stronger again. Just then, a
30:33commotion arose around him. Someone
30:35whispered, "Why is Lynn and bringing
30:37people again? This time, it doesn't seem
30:39to be a disciple with an earth spirit
30:41route." Su Chongqing stopped cultivating
30:44and followed everyone's gaze. He saw
30:46that Linen had brought another
30:48unfamiliar face, and this time it wasn't
30:50a man, but a female disciple. The other
30:53person was slender with an ordinary
30:54face, and her clothes clearly belonged
30:57to the Imperial Water Pavilion. She
30:59glanced at the surrounding disciples,
31:01and seeing that they were all covered in
31:02mud, a look of disgust flashed in her
31:05eyes. Linen, however, was very polite,
31:08cupping his hands and saying, "Fellow
31:10Dist Xiao, I'm entrusting this to you."
31:13Ziao Exin only gave a vague reply, then
31:15raised his hand to cast a spell. Soon,
31:18the water elemental energy in the
31:20surrounding air rapidly gathered,
31:22transforming into an increasingly dense
31:24mist that floated above the spirit
31:26field. Not long after, the sound of
31:28raindrops pattering began. This was no
31:31ordinary rain, but spiritual rain imbued
31:34with the essence of water. After
31:36absorbing it, the leaves of the
31:37spiritual rice immediately became more
31:40moist, and even the rice grains visibly
31:42became plumper. Such Chongqing raised an
31:45eyebrow, immediately recognizing it as
31:47the minor cloud rain technique. Compared
31:49to earth elemental disciples like Han Su
31:52who only collaborated a few times a
31:54quarter, water elemental disciples were
31:55the truly suitable partners for
31:57long-term cooperation. Because the
31:59spirit fields need to be irrigated every
32:01so often. Ordinary spring water and
32:04stream water can only play a basic role.
32:06While the spirit rain condensed by the
32:08minor cloud rain technique can not only
32:10increase yield but also repel insects
32:12and heal and repair damage to spirit
32:15plants. It has to be said that Linen
32:17really went all out to become a formal
32:19disciple this time. Such Chonqing was
32:21even a little curious about exactly how
32:23much he had gained in return, one/tenth
32:25or more. Such Chongqing was initially
32:28tempted but quickly suppressed his
32:29interest. Given his current situation,
32:32as long as he proceeded steadily,
32:34passing the assessment was not a
32:35problem, and there was absolutely no
32:37need for him to take any further steps.
32:40Moreover, judging from Xiao Xai's
32:42strained expression while casting the
32:44spell, it was clear that her mastery of
32:46the minor cloud rain technique was not
32:48deep and her spiritual energy was not
32:50abundant. She was obviously just a
32:52beginner. It was precisely for this
32:54reason that she sought cooperation with
32:56the outer disciples of the spirit field
32:58sect. If it were a second grade spirit
33:00field, with her current strength, it
33:02would most likely be a thankless task.
33:04Such Chongqing knew very well that if he
33:06really wanted to cooperate with a water
33:08spirit root disciple, he would have to
33:10wait until he had a second grade spirit
33:12field before looking for a water spirit
33:13root cultivator who had already become a
33:16formal disciple. As for why Linen was in
33:18such a hurry, it was because he also
33:20only had one last chance to take the
33:22test. In addition, his cultivation level
33:24was still at the early stage of chi
33:26refining and he only had one level of
33:28the evergreen technique. So his control
33:30over the spiritual field was far
33:32inferior to Sue Chonings. Therefore,
33:34Linen could only try his best to
33:36increase production even at a cost to
33:39take this gamble. But this meant that
33:41even if he became a formal disciple in
33:43the future, Han Su and Xiao Xin would
33:45take a significant portion of the
33:47harvest. This was in fact the true
33:49predicament of most outer disciples.
33:52Unless one possesses exceptional talent
33:54and passes the assessment on the first
33:56try, one can only constantly compromise
33:58and make concessions all for the sake of
34:00a chance to stay. Without the Shinong
34:03system, Su Chongqing<unk>s fate would
34:04essentially be one of three things. They
34:07could either beg for help like Linen,
34:09losing part of their harvest, or become
34:11tenant farmers like Jangir, a formal
34:13disciple, losing almost all their
34:15income. The worst outcome was to leave
34:17the Donging immortal sect completely,
34:19losing even their spiritual fields.
34:22Thinking of this, Su Chonqing didn't
34:24exactly mock Lynn and choice. At this
34:27moment, someone nearby came over and
34:28advised, "Fellow Dais Su, why don't you
34:31go ask him? You only have one chance
34:33left. You can't fail again." Everyone
34:35around was actually tempted. But no one
34:37was willing to speak first. Because they
34:39all realized Xiao Xen wasn't very
34:41capable. They wanted Su Chongqing to
34:43test the waters first. If the price
34:45wasn't too high, they could naturally
34:47cooperate. But if the price was too
34:49high, they'd have to give up. Seeing
34:51everyone staring at him, Su Chongqing
34:53knew it wouldn't be good to refuse.
34:55Although he didn't need Xiao Xian<unk>s
34:57help, he still had to maintain
34:59appearances, otherwise it would seem
35:00strange, so he nodded and said, "Okay,
35:03I'll go ask." At this moment, Ziao Xian
35:06had just finished using the minor cloud
35:08rain technique and was recovering her
35:10spiritual energy. Lynen saw Su Chongqing
35:13approaching and a hint of resistance
35:14immediately appeared in his eyes. Both
35:17of them only had one more chance for the
35:19assessment and it was inevitable that
35:20others would compare them behind their
35:22backs. Although there was no direct
35:24conflict, both sides felt somewhat
35:26uncomfortable. Lynen raised an eyebrow
35:28and asked, "Fellow Daist Su, is there
35:30something you need?" Su Chongqing
35:32remained calm, shrugged, and said, "I'd
35:35like to ask this fellow Daist what the
35:37price is for casting the minor cloud
35:39rain technique once." Linen hesitated
35:41for a moment, then turned his gaze to
35:43Zhiao Exin. Ziao Excin merely glanced at
35:46Su Chongqing and said in a calm tone,
35:48"40% of the profits." Upon hearing this,
35:52Su Chongqing looked at Lynn and in
35:54disbelief, and everyone around them was
35:55stunned. Even Han Su with his earth
35:58elemental root only wanted 10%. while
36:01this female disciple with a water
36:02elemental root asked for 40%. In other
36:05words, Linen would have to give away a
36:07full 50% of his future harvest. How
36:09ruthless. Chapter 5. Assessment is not
36:12difficult, but making things difficult
36:14will only lead to a slap in the face.
36:16Part one. Three months have passed in
36:18the blink of an eye, and the spirit
36:20fields have ushered in the third quarter
36:22assessment. According to the sect rules,
36:24as long as the yield of each moo of
36:26grade one spirit field reaches a
36:28thousand gene, the outer disciples can
36:30officially join. Early in the morning,
36:32everyone stood on the ridge of the field
36:34waiting for the assessment. Jangir was
36:37late, so Su Chongqing simply sat down
36:39cross-legged and took advantage of the
36:41brief respit to try his hand at
36:42cultivation. In the past two months,
36:45relying on the effects of the third
36:46level of the chonqing technique, his
36:48spiritual power had increased to five
36:50strands distributed in his limbs and
36:53lumbar spine. Now examining the
36:55spiritual plants no longer requires
36:57touching each one individually. He can
37:00simply release his spiritual energy to
37:02cover a 5 m radius, easily sensing the
37:04plant's condition and even predicting
37:06changes over the next 3 days.
37:08Unfortunately, the wood elemental energy
37:10is too thin during the harvesting stage,
37:13causing slow progress in his cultivation
37:15after several attempts. After trying for
37:17a while, Su Chongqing had no choice but
37:20to give up, thinking to himself.
37:22Fortunately, the focus this time isn't
37:24on spiritual energy. Then, he looked up
37:27at the golden spiritual field in front
37:29of him. Under his meticulous care for
37:31the past 3 months, the spiritual rice
37:33had grown exceptionally well. The heavy
37:35rice stalks swayed in the wind, each
37:37grain plump and bright, which put him in
37:40a good mood. Not long after, someone
37:42shouted, "The examiners are here. Senior
37:44brothers Jangir and Li are here." The
37:47third one is quite unfamiliar. Everyone
37:49immediately perked up and looked over.
37:52Jangir, Liang Kai, and a newly arrived
37:55formal disciple walked to the edge of
37:56the field. Jangir introduced, "Everyone,
37:59this is senior brother Luo from Spirit
38:01Beast Valley." After speaking, his gaze
38:04quickly fell on Su Chongqing. He had
38:06expected Su Chongqing to be nervous, but
38:09to his surprise, the other was calmer
38:11than the others. He couldn't help but
38:13sneer inwardly. Could this kid have
38:15already resigned himself to his fate? Su
38:17Chongqing and the others immediately
38:19bowed in greeting. Lu Buching spoke
38:22calmly. "Fellow disciples, I will be in
38:24charge of weighing the spirit rice this
38:26time." As he spoke, a ring flew out from
38:29his sleeve. The ring spun around a few
38:31times in the air, and the next second, a
38:33golden shadow suddenly shot out, rapidly
38:36expanding upon landing. With a bang, a
38:39huge golden toad appeared on the ridge
38:41of the field. The golden toad was
38:43entirely golden with round golden beads
38:45growing on its back. Like the others, Su
38:48Chongqing subconsciously took a step
38:50back, thinking to himself that this was
38:52a spirit beast. Lu Buching explained,
38:55"You can harvest the rice yourselves.
38:57When you're done, shout out and Lord
38:59Jeene will swallow the spirit rice. Then
39:01we can measure the yield. Everyone was
39:03amazed and nodded hurriedly. Such
39:05Chonqing, however, felt a little
39:07fortunate. Last time, the one who came
39:09for the assessment was a disciple with a
39:11gold spiritual route. He could harvest
39:13all the spirit rice with a wave of his
39:15hand. If it was the same this time, he
39:18wouldn't have a chance to harvest his
39:19lifespan. Jangir impatiently urged,
39:22"Let<unk>s begin." As soon as he
39:24finished speaking, all the outer
39:25disciples participating in the
39:27assessment picked up sickles and began
39:29to harvest in the fields. Su Chongqing
39:31mingled in the crowd, working with
39:33exceptional vigor. Each time he
39:35harvested a stock of highquality spirit
39:37rice, a notification would ring in his
39:39mind. Harvesting one stock of
39:41highquality spirit rice increases
39:43lifespan by 3 days. With each
39:45notification ringing, Su Chonqing felt
39:48incredibly excited. If he weren't afraid
39:50of arousing suspicion, he would have
39:52liked to harvest all the spirit rice in
39:54one go. But to keep a low profile, he
39:56could only control his speed to be about
39:58the same as those around him. On the
40:00other side, Jangir asked with a half
40:02smile. Fellow Daist Luo, how many people
40:05do you think will be able to become
40:06official this time? Lu Buching thought
40:09for a moment and said, "With 300 people
40:11taking the exam, it would be good if Tin
40:14could make it." Jangir then looked at Li
40:16Sanankai and asked, "What about you,
40:18fellow Dowist Lee?" Li Sananki replied
40:20calmly, "For a five, I guess." Jang Air
40:24and Lu Buching didn't know much about
40:25the spirit fields, but Li Sanankai, who
40:28was on duty year round and patrolled
40:30regularly, naturally knew who had a
40:32chance of passing and who was destined
40:33to fail. Air pressed, "Who are they?" Li
40:37said, "Lynn and his one." Jangir raised
40:39an eyebrow and said, "I remember he only
40:42had one chance left, and he even sought
40:44cooperation with disciples with Earth
40:46and Water Spiritual Roots a while ago.
40:48Lynen had also been targeted by Jeangair
40:50before. Jeang Air had tested him
40:52privately a few times, intending to make
40:54him a tenant farmer, but unexpectedly
40:57this person sought other methods, even
40:59going to extremes." Liengai nodded and
41:01said, "That's right." Jeang asked again.
41:04"Anything else?" Lie's gaze had already
41:07fallen on Su Chongqing, but after seeing
41:09Jang Heir<unk>s aggressive expression,
41:11he finally just shook his head. Liang
41:14Kai was well aware of what Jangir had
41:15been doing in private. In fact, every
41:18official disciple who received an
41:19assessment task did the same thing. It
41:22had practically become an unspoken rule
41:24in the spirit field. Time flew by, and
41:26the disciples who had finished
41:28harvesting called for the golden towed
41:30to weigh their grains. Luing reported
41:32the results one by one. Su Yuan 700 gene
41:36of spirit rice failed the test. Jang
41:38Benan 800 gene failed. Soon more good
41:42news came. Ziao Xiao, you have
41:44successfully completed the assessment
41:46with 1,000 caddies of spirit rice. The
41:49assessment of 300 people lasted from
41:51sunrise to dusk and finally only three
41:54people remained. Among the last three
41:56were Su Chongqing and Linen. In fact,
41:59they had already finished harvesting but
42:01the line ahead of them had been too
42:02long. So they had been waiting until
42:04now. As the golden toad drew closer,
42:07Lin<unk>s breathing quickened. Jeang
42:09smirked and teased. Junior brother Lynn
42:11went to so much trouble to find someone
42:13to help you. This time it should be a
42:15sure thing, right? Lynn Anne<unk>s
42:17expression changed slightly, and he
42:19could only lower his head, not daring to
42:22reply. The next moment, the golden toad
42:24stretched out its long golden tongue and
42:26swiftly swallowed the spirit rice in
42:29front of him. Before long, the golden
42:31beads on the toad's back swelled up one
42:33after another until the 11th bead
42:35appeared. Luo Buching announced loudly.
42:3811 golden beads, 1,100 caddies of spirit
42:42rice. The test is a success. Finally,
42:45upon hearing this, Linen immediately
42:47knelt down and wept uncontrollably. In
42:50order to become a formal disciple, he
42:52had given up 50% of his future earnings.
42:55He dared not even imagine the
42:56consequences if he failed. Fortunately,
42:58he won his gamble. Su Chongqing,
43:01watching this scene, felt a pang of
43:03sympathy and said softly,
43:04"Congratulations."
43:06Jeang then looked at the remaining two,
43:08preparing to continue the assessment. At
43:10this moment, another disciple stepped
43:12forward first. It's my turn. Jeang
43:15glanced at him. Xiaoing, right? He
43:17remembered this person because the two
43:18had talked about it privately. Xiaoing
43:21said meaningfully, "Senior brotherh. I
43:23agree." But Jangir only replied
43:25indifferently. We<unk>ll see. Without
43:28giving a clear response in public, the
43:30golden toad quickly swallowed
43:31Xiaoying<unk>s spirit rice, and the
43:33golden beads on its back began to swell.
43:36One, two, until it stopped at the ninth
43:38bead. The nine golden beads represent
43:41that Xiaoing only managed to grow 900
43:43caddies of spirit rice, falling short of
43:45the required 1,000 caddies. In other
43:48words, he failed the assessment. And
43:50more importantly, he cannot become a
43:52formal disciple. Chapter 6. The
43:55assessment is not difficult, but the
43:56harassment will only lead to a slap in
43:59the face. Part two. With only 100 gene
44:01left to go, Jangir immediately gave Luo
44:04Buching a wink. Lu Bing understood and
44:07gently moved his right hand towards the
44:09golden toad. The next moment, the 10th
44:11golden bead slowly bulged up, a small
44:14action that Liang Kai, standing nearby,
44:16clearly saw. However, Li Sanankai
44:19neither stopped it nor exposed it on the
44:21spot. After all, he would receive hush
44:23money after this matter was over, so
44:25there was no need for him to meddle.
44:27Jeang Air then announced with a smile,
44:29exactly 1,000 caddies. Congratulations,
44:32Junior Brotherho, on passing the test
44:35and becoming a formal disciple. Xiaoing
44:37was so nervous that he was covered in
44:39sweat and quickly bowed to express his
44:41gratitude. Now, only one person remains
44:44on the field. That person is naturally
44:46Such Chonqing. He could have verified it
44:48much earlier, but Jeangir deliberately
44:50dragged it out until the very end. The
44:53reason is simple. Jangir wanted to
44:55humiliate this guy who had repeatedly
44:57rejected him in front of everyone so as
44:59to make an example of him. Jangir asked
45:01with a mocking smile. Junior brother Su,
45:04"Are you ready?" Su Chongqing nodded and
45:06said, "Of course." Jeang then asked with
45:08amusement, "And how do you feel about
45:10yourself?" Su Chongqing grinned. I think
45:13we can succeed this time. Jeang Air
45:15sneered, clearly not believing him at
45:17all. In his opinion, Su Chongqing had no
45:20chance of passing the test. Because some
45:22of the Earth's energy in Su
45:23Chongqing<unk>s spiritual field had
45:25already been drained. Even if there were
45:27enough spiritual seedlings, the
45:29nutrition wouldn't be enough, and the
45:31yield would definitely be less than a
45:33thousand caddies. Lu Buching called out,
45:35"Lord Jeene." The golden toad
45:37immediately opened its mouth and used
45:39its tongue to roll the spirit rice in
45:41front of Su Chongqing into its mouth.
45:44The next moment, the golden beads on the
45:46toad's back bulged up one after another
45:48at an extremely fast speed, almost
45:50without any pause, reaching 10 beads in
45:53a short time. Jangir didn't even look at
45:55it carefully before he was about to
45:57start mocking. It seems that Junior
45:59Brother Su<unk>s third assessment, but
46:01before he could finish speaking, Luing
46:03had already announced it loudly. 10 gold
46:05beads, a yield of 1,000 caddies.
46:08Assessment successful. Upon hearing
46:10this, Su Chongqing remained calm. But
46:13Jangir<unk>s eyes widened suddenly. He
46:15quickly looked at the golden toad and
46:17found that the 10 golden beads had
46:19indeed swelled up, and the spiritual
46:21energy content in the rice was also very
46:23high. His face immediately showed an
46:25expression of disbelief. Su Chanqing
46:28smiled and cupped his hands in greeting.
46:30I have fulfilled my mission. Senior
46:32brotherhangs
46:33face darkened and he couldn't help but
46:35shout. You this is absolutely
46:38impossible. Upon hearing this, Lu
46:41Buchin<unk>s expression turned cold.
46:43What are you suspecting that there's
46:45something wrong with my Lord Jeene?
46:46Jangir<unk>s expression changed slightly
46:49and he quickly waved his hand in denial.
46:51But he was still unwilling to give up
46:53and said through gritted teeth, "It's
46:55not that there's a problem with the
46:56golden toad, but that this acre of
46:58spirit field simply cannot produce a
47:00thousand caddies of spirit rice." Lu
47:03Buching frowned, but Lord Jan would
47:05never make a mistake. Jangir immediately
47:08turned his attention to Su Chongqing,
47:10asking fiercely, "Tell me, did you
47:12cheat?" Su Chonqing looked at him
47:14coldly. Senior brotherhang, you can eat
47:17whatever you want, but you can't say
47:19whatever you want. The surrounding
47:21disciples were also stunned by these
47:22words and began to discuss among
47:24themselves. Jangir refused to give up
47:27and continued, "Your acre of spiritual
47:29field could never possibly produce a
47:31thousand caddies. How dare you say you
47:33didn't cheat?" After saying that, he
47:35glanced at Lekai. Although he didn't
47:37know what deal Chongqing and Liangai had
47:40made, he instinctively felt that someone
47:42must be helping them in secret. Su
47:44Chongqing remained calm and countered.
47:46You say it's impossible to mass-produce
47:48a thousand caddies. Where's your
47:50evidence? Jeang Air immediately replied,
47:53"You didn't even reach a thousand
47:54caddies last time." Su Chongqing replied
47:57confidently, "Last time I lacked
47:59experience. What was the problem?"
48:01Liengai also reminded him at the right
48:03time. "Fellow Dais Jang, don't speak
48:06recklessly without substantial
48:07evidence." Zang Air was already somewhat
48:10dazed and pointed directly at the
48:12spiritual field below, saying, "This
48:14acre of spiritual field lacks earth
48:16energy, and the soil is not nutritious
48:19enough. It's<unk> impossible for it to
48:21produce a thousand caddies of spiritual
48:23rice." Su Chongqing immediately
48:25retorted, "You're not an earth spirit
48:27root. How do you know this acre of
48:29spirit field lacks earth energy?"
48:31Jeangier opened his mouth, but was
48:33instantly choked. It's one thing for
48:35everyone to know something in their
48:36hearts, but it's quite another to admit
48:38it in public. Once it's out in the open,
48:40it won't just offend a few outer
48:42disciples. Luing also sensed something
48:45was wrong and looked at Jang Air in
48:47surprise. Fellow Dais Jang, what's going
48:49on? Jangir still stubbornly insisted. I
48:52just think he cheated. Su Chongqing said
48:55loudly. Since senior brother Jeang
48:57doubts me, why not find a disciple with
48:59an earth elemental route to examine the
49:01spirit field and see if there is a
49:03problem with the earth's energy? Lu
49:05Buching<unk>s eyes lit up after hearing
49:07this. That's a good idea. Jangir<unk>s
49:09heart skipped a beat when he saw Su
49:11Choning<unk>s confidence. Liengai looked
49:13at Linen and said calmly, "Junior
49:15brother Len, don't you happen to know a
49:17disciple with an earth elemental root?
49:19Could you bring that person over?" The
49:21question sounded like a request, but it
49:23didn't actually leave any room for
49:25refusal. Lynn nodded quickly, turned and
49:28left, and soon brought Han Su over. Han
49:31Su was completely bewildered when he saw
49:32that the area around the spirit field
49:34was surrounded by people, including
49:37several formal disciples. He had no idea
49:39what was going on. He was still
49:41wondering why he didn't need to loosen
49:42the soil at this time of year. Linen
49:44quickly said, "Senior brotherly, the
49:47person has arrived." Han Su immediately
49:49bowed nervously, saying, "Greetings,
49:51three senior brothers." Li Sanankai
49:54sized him up and asked, "You are Han
49:56Su." Hanu nodded hurriedly. "Yes, it's
49:59me." Li Sanankai pointed to Su
50:01Choning<unk>s spiritual field. "Go and
50:03check if the earth energy in this
50:04spiritual field is sufficient." Jangir
50:07immediately glared and added, "We must
50:09check it carefully and not be careless."
50:12Han Su scratched his head, his
50:14expression somewhat strange. He
50:16hesitated for a moment before saying,
50:18"This doesn't need an examination." Lu
50:20Buching and Jeang Air looked at him
50:22simultaneously and couldn't help but
50:24ask, "Why?" Han Su immediately became
50:27somewhat smug and loudly proclaimed,
50:29"Because it was I who restored the
50:31Earth's energy to this acre of spiritual
50:33land 3 months ago. In Han Su<unk>s view,
50:36this was a good opportunity to build his
50:38reputation. So, he spoke very loudly,
50:40and everyone around him could hear him
50:42clearly." Jeang was stunned. No wonder
50:44Su Chongqing had remained so calm
50:46throughout. It turned out that the other
50:48party had already arranged for someone
50:50to replenish the Earth's energy in the
50:52spirit field. He was both shocked and
50:54furious and subconsciously began to
50:56suspect who had leaked the information,
50:58allowing Su Chongqing to find a solution
51:00ahead of time. Su Chongqing then looked
51:03at Jeangir and asked calmly, "Senior
51:05brother Jeang, did you hear that
51:07clearly? Do you still think I cheated?
51:09Should we continue the investigation?"
51:11These three probing questions left Jeang
51:13Air speechless, his face turning stiff.
51:16In the end, he could only suppress his
51:18anger and force a dry laugh, saying,
51:20"It's a misunderstanding. All a
51:22misunderstanding." Su Chongqing didn't
51:25press the matter further, but turned to
51:27look at Lu Buching. Then, senior brother
51:29Luo, have I completed the assessment? Lu
51:32Buching immediately nodded. Since there
51:34are no problems, it's considered a
51:36success. As soon as these words were
51:38spoken, the attitude of the surrounding
51:40disciples changed immediately and they
51:43all stepped forward to offer their
51:44congratulations. Congratulations, fellow
51:47Daist Sue. No, we should call you senior
51:50brother Sue now. Congratulations, senior
51:52brother Sue, on becoming a full member.
51:55The people who were originally just
51:57watching the show all changed their
51:58tune. Su Chongqing returned the greeting
52:01with a cupped hand. Congratulations.
52:03Congratulations. However, what truly
52:06made him happy was not the
52:07congratulations, but the attribute panel
52:09that appeared before his eyes. Su
52:12Chongqing, male, 18 years old, remaining
52:15lifespan 16,814
52:18days with spirit root, mid-stage chi
52:20refining, Chongqing technique level
52:22three, and various effects are presented
52:25accordingly. the ability to improve
52:27affinity with plants, enhance physical
52:29strength, improve blood circulation,
52:31increase cultivation speed by 30%.
52:34Increase yield by 20% and predict and
52:36diagnose problems with spiritual plants
52:38are all clearly displayed. Converted to
52:41years, that's a full 46 years more in
52:43lifespan. Chapter 7, Chongqing ascends
52:46to the fifth level, becoming a
52:48full-fledged outer disciple. Chapter 7,
52:51Chongqing ascends to the fifth floor.
52:53The outer gate officially turns dark as
52:55dusk falls and everyone returns to their
52:57respective rooms. Han Su said with a
53:00smile, fellow Dowist Su. No, from now on
53:03I should call you Senior Brother Su.
53:05You're welcome, Su Chongqing said with a
53:07smile, waving his hand. Han Su said
53:10earnestly. Senior brother Su, you must
53:12take good care of me in the future. No
53:15problem. No problem, Su Chan replied
53:17somewhat peruncterly. Upon seeing this,
53:20Han Su<unk>s eyes darted around. After
53:22much deliberation, his expression
53:24hardened. He suddenly pulled out the
53:26contract the two had signed from his
53:28sleeve. Without any hesitation, he
53:30pulled hard right in front of her with a
53:32hissing sound. The talisman instantly
53:34split in two. The light that had
53:36appeared dimmed instantly. This also
53:39means that the contract between the two
53:40parties has completely failed. What's
53:42this? Such Chanqi was startled. Han Su
53:45said with a pained expression. If it
53:47weren't for senior brother Su, I
53:49wouldn't have been able to promote this
53:50in front of so many people today. In
53:52that case, what is a mere hund caddies
53:55of spirit rice worth? This Su Chongqing
53:58was both amused and exasperated upon
54:00hearing this. Senior brother Sue, since
54:02I'm being so sincere, could I buy spirit
54:05rice from you in the future? Han Su
54:07blinked. Lynon then asked himself and
54:09another female disciple with a water
54:11elemental root for help. 3 months of
54:13hard work. The result was only 1,100
54:17gene 650 kg and Su Chongqing is right in
54:21front of me. Although it failed twice,
54:23it succeeded on the third try. I heard
54:25they didn't find anyone to perform the
54:27minor cloud rain technique. He even
54:29personally took care of loosening the
54:31soil. What does this tell us? This shows
54:33that Su Chongqing's third success was
54:35due to his own efforts. He further
54:37stated that his talent in planting was
54:39superior to Lin Ans. From a potential
54:41perspective, it has investment value.
54:44Okay. Seeing the other party's sincere
54:46attitude, Su Chongqing did not refuse.
54:49Then I won't bother you any longer.
54:50Goodbye. Han Su breathed a sigh of
54:53relief, then turned and left. Su
54:55Chongqing saw them off at the door.
54:57After the other party has completely
54:58gone far away. He did not return to the
55:01room, but instead walked to the other
55:02side. Not long after, they arrived at
55:05Lissa's door again. Knock knock knock. A
55:08knock came at the door. Who is it?
55:10Lissi's voice came from inside the
55:11house. Su Chongqing chuckled and said,
55:14"Senior brotherly, it's me. Why are you
55:16here?" Lisenkai asked, somewhat
55:19surprised to see who it was when the
55:20door opened. "This time, I am very
55:22grateful for my seniors help." Such
55:24Chonqing came specifically to express
55:26his gratitude. "Don't get me wrong, I
55:29just can't stand that guy," Li said,
55:31pursing his lips. "In any case, you have
55:34helped me twice. If I ever need your
55:36help in the future, I will definitely
55:38help you without hesitation," Su
55:39Chongqing said sincerely. The first
55:42time, the other party informed us that
55:44there was a problem with Linkian. That
55:45is why I am cooperating with Han Su. The
55:48second time, if it weren't for this
55:49person's subtle but helpful words, I'm
55:52afraid Jang Air will never stop. Still
55:54calling me junior brother? Liang Kai
55:56reminded him meaningfully. Now that you
55:58are a formal disciple, call me fellow
56:00Daist. No, no, no. You became a formal
56:04disciple earlier than me, so of course
56:06you should call me senior brother. Such
56:08Chongqing hurriedly waved his hand.
56:10Since you call me senior brother, let me
56:12give you a heads up, Li Sanankai
56:14narrowed his eyes upon seeing this.
56:16Please speak, Su Chongqing said, perking
56:19up his ears to listen. Li Sanankai said
56:21in a low voice, "Don't pursue this."
56:24"Huh?" Such Chongqing was stunned. Li
56:26Sananki continued, "It is an accepted
56:29practice of the immortal sect for formal
56:31disciples to exploit outer disciples.
56:33Even if you are dissatisfied with
56:35someone, you can only endure it,
56:36suppress it, and guard against it."
56:39Junior brother understands. Su Chongqing
56:41understood instantly. It's good that you
56:43understand. You're leaving for another
56:45place tomorrow. So get some rest, Liang
56:47Kai said before closing the door. Senior
56:50brother, you should get some rest, too.
56:52Su Chongqing looked at the closed wooden
56:54door in front of him, his expression
56:55thoughtful. Lansai's words were clearly
56:58a warning to himself. Jeang Air dares to
57:00exploit. This shows that other formal
57:02disciples also dared to do it. Since
57:05everyone dares to do it, it's clear that
57:07the higher-ups are intentionally
57:08condoning it. This also means that
57:10Jangir or anyone else must have a
57:13powerful backer. Taking revenge on Jong
57:15Air would mean offending a whole host of
57:17people. This even includes the high and
57:19mighty immortals. With their current
57:22strength, this is tantamount to suicide.
57:24Although Liang Kai meant well, he never
57:26expected this. Such Choning may not have
57:29had much else, but he lived longer than
57:31anyone else. Others can't afford to
57:33wait, but he can. It was late at night.
57:36In the dimly lit room, Su Chongqing sat
57:38cross-legged on the wooden bed. He
57:40thought that he would become a formal
57:42disciple tomorrow. I couldn't help but
57:44grin, but he quickly calmed down. Then,
57:46focus your attention on the properties
57:48panel. Remaining lifespan, 16,814
57:52days. Evergreen technique level three.
57:55Effect one, cultivation speed plus 30%.
57:58Effect two, production increase plus
58:0120%. Effect three, it can predict and
58:04diagnose problems with the growth of
58:05spiritual plants. Would you like to
58:07consume 4,62
58:09days of your lifespan to upgrade the
58:11evergreen technique from level three to
58:13level four? Yes. Immediately, a massive
58:17amount of experience and techniques
58:18related to the evergreen technique
58:20emerged. successfully consumed 4,62
58:24days of lifespan to upgrade the
58:26evergreen technique to level 4.
58:29Remaining lifespan 12,212
58:31days. Evergreen technique level four.
58:34Effect one, cultivation speed plus 40%.
58:38Effect two, production increase plus
58:4030%. Effect three, can perceive the
58:43detailed condition of spiritual plants
58:45within a ten jang radius. It can be
58:47improved. Such Chonqing asked in
58:50surprise, "Would you like to consume
58:527,072
58:53days of your lifespan to upgrade the
58:55evergreen technique from level four to
58:57level 5?" Yes. In an instant, countless
59:01experiences and techniques related to
59:03the evergreen technique emerged.
59:05Successfully consumed 7,072
59:08days of lifespan to upgrade the
59:10evergreen technique to level 5.
59:12Remaining lifespan 5,140 days. Evergreen
59:17technique level five. Effect one,
59:19cultivation speed plus 50%. Effect two,
59:23production increase plus 40%. Effect
59:26three, can perceive the detailed status
59:28of spiritual plants within 10 ft. Effect
59:31four, can predict the best time to
59:33harvest spiritual plants. The five
59:35layers of the evergreen technique are
59:37terrifying. Such Chonqing took a deep
59:39breath. Such an effect can be achieved
59:41with mere low-level techniques. that
59:43higher level earthly rank and celestial
59:46rank, even the legendary immortal rank.
59:49The next day, before dawn, Su Chongqing
59:51had already prepared breakfast. It was
59:53just ordinary rice porridge and pickled
59:56vegetables. This is the last time I'll
59:58drink from you. I'll miss it, Su
1:00:00Chongqing sipped the wine from the rim
1:00:01of the bowl, taking small sips with
1:00:03obvious enjoyment. Su Chonqing. Not long
1:00:06after, someone's voice called out from
1:00:08outside. Such Chonqing hurriedly packed
1:00:10his things and then ran out. At a
1:00:13glance, one could spot Linen Xiaoing and
1:00:16Xiao Xiao who had passed the assessment.
1:00:18Even Lu Buching and Li Sanankai arrived.
1:00:21Liang Kai said calmly. Fellow Daoist
1:00:23Luo, I'm entrusting all the people to
1:00:26you. Lu Buching nodded slightly. Li
1:00:29Sanankai gave Su Chongqing a warning
1:00:31glance, then turned and left. At this
1:00:34moment, Luing took out several small
1:00:36storage bags from his sleeve and said,
1:00:38"You should be familiar with these,
1:00:40right?" Of course, Su Chongqing and the
1:00:43others nodded in agreement. Each time
1:00:45you receive a spirit seedling, you will
1:00:47come into contact with this small
1:00:48storage bag. This is so convenient. I've
1:00:51wanted it so much. From now on, they're
1:00:54yours. Lu Buching tossed them over one
1:00:56by one. Su Chongqing took it, tore it
1:00:59open, and used his spiritual power to
1:01:01sense it. He was surprised to find out
1:01:03inside was not only a brand new set of
1:01:05formal disciples clothes. Moreover, it
1:01:08also has a 100 caddies of firstgrade
1:01:10spiritual rice stored in its store. The
1:01:12internal space of the entire small
1:01:14storage bag is 5 cubic meters. Chapter
1:01:178. The sky is the limit and spiritual
1:01:19roots are vastly different. Chapter 8.
1:01:21The sky is high enough for birds to fly
1:01:24freely and spiritual roots are vastly
1:01:26different. There are 100 caddies of
1:01:28spiritual rice inside as well as a set
1:01:30of formal disciple clothes. Luing
1:01:33glanced at everyone. Yes, everyone
1:01:35checked and found it to be correct. Lu
1:01:38Buching then reminded him, "If you need
1:01:40to pack anything else, hurry up and do
1:01:42it." Upon hearing this, Linen and the
1:01:45others turned and left. Only Su
1:01:47Chongqing stood still, motionless
1:01:49because there was nothing he cherished.
1:01:51Before long, those who had left rushed
1:01:53back. Lu Buching said half- jokingly,
1:01:56"You must keep the small storage bag
1:01:58safe. After all, it's not a high-end
1:02:00item and can't be bound by blood. Don't
1:02:02come crying to me if you lose it. Haha.
1:02:05The group burst out laughing. Lu Buching
1:02:07then said, "If there are no mistakes, we
1:02:10should set off." Okay. Everyone was
1:02:12eager to leave as soon as possible. At
1:02:14this moment, Luing took out a token with
1:02:17a flying crane pattern engraved on it
1:02:19and shouted at it, "Lord 19, we are
1:02:22about to set off. B." Not long after, a
1:02:25crane's cry came from afar. Then, a
1:02:27massive shadow approached at an
1:02:29extremely fast speed. Such Chanqing and
1:02:32the others looked up. It was discovered
1:02:33to be a huge white crane with a wingspan
1:02:36of over 10 meters. As soon as it
1:02:38approached, gusts of wind immediately
1:02:40swept through. The wind blew so hard
1:02:42that everyone staggered and couldn't
1:02:44stand up straight. Linen, Xiaoing, and
1:02:47the others were forced to stagger
1:02:48backward. Such Chanqing was all right.
1:02:51After all, he was in the mid-stage ofQi
1:02:53refining and had five strands of
1:02:55spiritual power in his body. But he
1:02:57still pretended to take a few steps
1:02:58back, looking shocked. Monster? That's a
1:03:01celestial beast. If we were monsters, we
1:03:04would have been eaten long ago. The
1:03:06crowd was buzzing with discussion. Lu
1:03:08Buching said helplessly. Your
1:03:10Excellency, please stop teasing these
1:03:12juniors. He The giant white crane
1:03:15chuckled in a human-like manner, and
1:03:17then the wind suddenly subsided. Su
1:03:19Chongqing and the others finally
1:03:21regained their footing. He then looked
1:03:23at the enormous white crane with
1:03:24lingering fear, but they discovered that
1:03:26others were also observing them with
1:03:28pink eyes. Everyone, please follow me
1:03:31and climb onto the back of Lord 19.
1:03:33Luing called out immediately after he 19
1:03:36landed and then took the lead on his
1:03:38way. Su Chonqing and the others looked
1:03:40at each other. No one dared to step
1:03:42forward. What are you standing there
1:03:44for? Lu Buching urged impatiently when
1:03:47no one followed. Come on up. At this
1:03:49moment, the group carefully stepped onto
1:03:51Crane 19th's broad and sturdy back. As
1:03:54soon as I stood still, I realized that
1:03:56the scenery around me was rushing past
1:03:58me. Out of curiosity, I looked up and
1:04:00discovered that we had unknowingly taken
1:04:02to the air. The spiritual fields and
1:04:04buildings below are getting smaller and
1:04:06smaller. Looking down from above, the
1:04:09outer disciples resembled a dense swarm
1:04:11of ants. Lu Buching laughed and said,
1:04:14"We should indeed take a closer look.
1:04:16After all, it's the last day on the
1:04:18outskirts. The periphery. Su Chonqing
1:04:21was taken aback. Lu Buching said in a
1:04:23playful tone, "You don't actually think
1:04:25the spirit field is that big, do you?"
1:04:27Uh, Su Chongqing and the others were
1:04:30speechless. "In fact, what's below is
1:04:32just the outer perimeter of the spirit
1:04:34field. Only those who have become formal
1:04:36disciples are qualified to enter the
1:04:38true core area," Lu Bing explained
1:04:41briefly. "I see." The group realized,
1:04:44"There's still time. What do you want to
1:04:45ask? Lu Bing shrugged. This Linen and
1:04:49the others hesitated slightly. Senior
1:04:51brother Luo, may I ask what spiritual
1:04:53route you have awakened? Seeing that no
1:04:55one dared to ask, Su Chonqing simply
1:04:58spoke first. We are all formal
1:05:00disciples, so please call me fellow
1:05:02Daist Luo. Lu Buching then added, "I
1:05:05have awakened the water and with
1:05:06spiritual roots, duel spiritual roots."
1:05:09The group exclaimed in surprise. Su
1:05:11Chongqing pressed further. Fellow Daoist
1:05:14Luo, is there a difference between a
1:05:16single spiritual route and a dual
1:05:17spiritual route? Lu Bing affirmed, "Yes,
1:05:21and it's quite large. How big?" Not only
1:05:23Such Chongqing, but everyone was
1:05:25curious. Why should they be confined to
1:05:27this spirit field just because they
1:05:29awakened the wood spirit route? But this
1:05:31person with both water and wood
1:05:33spiritual roots has entered the spirit
1:05:35beast valley. You should know that once
1:05:37you awaken your spiritual root, you will
1:05:39gain a spiritual shield. From then on,
1:05:42all attacks from mortals will have no
1:05:44effect on us, right? Luo Buching asked
1:05:46rhetorically. Upon hearing this, Su
1:05:49Chongqing and the other two looked
1:05:51completely bewildered. The well-informed
1:05:53Lynn and nodded and said, "That is
1:05:55indeed the case." Lu Buching said with a
1:05:57hint of pride, "I have too, huh?" The
1:06:00group was dumbfounded. "How so?" Lu
1:06:03Buching explained when he saw that the
1:06:04others did not quite understand. It's
1:06:07like the mutual generation and restraint
1:06:09of spiritual roots. Especially the five
1:06:11elements of spiritual roots. For
1:06:14example, what overcomes earth, earth
1:06:16overcomes water, water overcomes fire,
1:06:19fire overcomes metal, and metal
1:06:21overcomes wood. Yes. Everyone nodded
1:06:24subconsciously. Lu Buchin continued.
1:06:26Therefore, although you can restrain the
1:06:28earth elemental root, you will be
1:06:30suppressed when you encounter other
1:06:32types, especially the metal and fire
1:06:34elemental roots, and the spiritual light
1:06:36shield will not be able to defend
1:06:38against them at all. Is that so? Xiaoing
1:06:40seemed to understand, but not quite. No
1:06:43wonder I get scared when I encounter
1:06:44someone with a metal spiritual route.
1:06:46Linen suddenly realized. Su Chongqing
1:06:49pondered. So the more spiritual roots
1:06:52one has, the higher one's defense and
1:06:54the fewer weaknesses one has. Lu Buching
1:06:57shook his head and said, "Not only that,
1:06:59it also means that you can use more
1:07:01types of spells. Most spells have
1:07:03attributes. For example, a person with a
1:07:06wood elemental root can only cast wood
1:07:08attribute spells. The more spiritual
1:07:10roots one has, the more spells one can
1:07:12cast and the better one can counter
1:07:14one's opponents. Does that mean that the
1:07:16five elements spiritual roots are the
1:07:18best?" Such Chonqing raised an eyebrow.
1:07:21Lu Buching revealed an appreciative
1:07:23look. Currently, the mainstream in the
1:07:25entire cultivation world is the five
1:07:27elements spiritual root. It's just a
1:07:30pity that there are too few such
1:07:31talents. Once they appear, they will
1:07:33definitely cause a great deal of
1:07:35competition among the major cultivation
1:07:37sections. Online novels have ruined me,
1:07:40Such Chonqing exclaimed inwardly.
1:07:42Unexpectedly, what is truly valued in
1:07:44the Tianuan realm is not spiritual root,
1:07:47but comprehension. spiritual roots are
1:07:49merely a necessary condition or rather a
1:07:52threshold for cultivating immortality.
1:07:55Seeing the sad expressions on their
1:07:57faces, Lu Buching couldn't help but
1:07:59comfort them, saying, "Don't be sad."
1:08:01Since spiritual roots can be mutually
1:08:04destructive, they can also be mutually
1:08:06reinforcing. Su Chonqing quickly pressed
1:08:08on. How do they generate each other?
1:08:11It's very simple. Luo Buching revealed a
1:08:13meaningful expression and then said,
1:08:15"After you have accumulated a certain
1:08:17amount of experience, you can find
1:08:19Dowist partners with different spiritual
1:08:21roots. By cultivating together, a new
1:08:24spiritual root can be born. I see." Such
1:08:27Chongqing suddenly realized, "Of course,
1:08:29you must find a compatible spiritual
1:08:31root such as water nourishing wood, but
1:08:34you must never find a conflicting
1:08:35spiritual route, otherwise you will be
1:08:37killed before the new spiritual route
1:08:39even emerges." Lu Buching blinked. How
1:08:42long does it usually take? Such Chonqing
1:08:45was very curious about this. Lu Buching
1:08:47replied, "It takes about a hundred years
1:08:49for the first spiritual root to be born,
1:08:51and the time doubles for each subsequent
1:08:54spiritual route." Huh. Linen and the
1:08:56others were instantly dumbfounded.
1:08:58Although cultivators with spirit roots
1:09:00have a longer lifespan than others, even
1:09:02if one cultivates to the perfection of
1:09:04the chi refining stage, it will only
1:09:06take 120 or 30 years. In other words, it
1:09:10died of old age before it could develop
1:09:12a new spiritual root. So, you'd be
1:09:15better off spending this time
1:09:16cultivating. Lu Buching shrugged,
1:09:18spreading his hands. Time. Su Chongqing
1:09:21narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself,
1:09:24I have plenty. Others can't wait, but I
1:09:26don't care. Since I'm going to just stay
1:09:28put and farm anyway, this is a good
1:09:30opportunity to gather all my spiritual
1:09:32roots. Don't even mention a 100 years. I
1:09:35can wait a thousand years. Chapter 9.
1:09:37Choosing a place to call home, a
1:09:39solitary bloom of youth. Chapter nine.
1:09:42Choosing a place to make home. Alone in
1:09:44her youthful days. She didn't know how
1:09:46long she had flown by. Suddenly,
1:09:48everyone, including Su Chongqing, felt a
1:09:51sense of relief. He quickly sensed it
1:09:53and discovered that the amount of wood
1:09:55elemental energy in the surrounding air
1:09:57was soaring. What is this? Su Chongqing
1:09:59and Lynn and exchanged glances. Luo
1:10:02Buching pointed ahead and said, "We are
1:10:04approaching the core area of the spirit
1:10:06field." Immediately, everyone looked
1:10:08down. They were immediately dumbfounded.
1:10:11The variety of spiritual plants broaden
1:10:13their horizons. The spiritual plants in
1:10:15the lower left corner resemble a green
1:10:18ocean. The wind blows, creating wave
1:10:20after wave. On the other side, vines
1:10:23stretch for tens of meters, transforming
1:10:25into a giant nest in the air. It even
1:10:27produced one human-faced fruit after
1:10:30another. In the distance, a golden
1:10:32sunflower stands tall like a towering
1:10:34tree. It radiates a dazzling golden
1:10:36light comparable to the sun. Such
1:10:38Chongqing glanced at it briefly and
1:10:40immediately had the illusion that he had
1:10:42been pierced by a sharp weapon. Looking
1:10:44out over the entire core area of the
1:10:46spirit field. There is no end in sight.
1:10:49It extends endlessly, seemingly without
1:10:51end. My god, these are the real
1:10:54spiritual plants. Do we have a chance to
1:10:56plant it? Such Chongqing, Linen, and the
1:10:59others all appeared quite excited
1:11:01because it was completely different from
1:11:02what they had imagined. "I thought it
1:11:04was all about spiritual rice and such,
1:11:06but now I've really seen something new,"
1:11:08Lu Buching said confidently. "As long as
1:11:11you meet the annual assessment target of
1:11:135,000 caddies or equivalent value, you
1:11:16can plant whatever you want." Su
1:11:18Chongqing was the first to calm down and
1:11:19pondered, "It shouldn't be that easy,
1:11:21right?" "Of course." Lu Buchin glanced
1:11:24at him with a hint of surprise, then
1:11:26continued. These things have
1:11:27requirements regarding cultivation level
1:11:29and spell level, so you have to act
1:11:31according to your ability. At this
1:11:33moment, Crane 19's flight slowed down.
1:11:36It slid down at an extremely steady
1:11:38speed. At the same time, a bare mountain
1:11:40appeared in front of them. It's not very
1:11:42high, only a little over a 100 meters.
1:11:45There were no plants around. At the top
1:11:47is a platform. A small antique-style
1:11:49palace stands at top it. Luo Buching
1:11:52pointed to the palace and introduced,
1:11:54"This is the spirit field core
1:11:56management office. You will submit
1:11:58resources or apply for spirit plant
1:12:00seeds here in the future. In any case,
1:12:02all your needs will be handled through
1:12:04here." "Okay." The group nodded. Lu Bing
1:12:07chuckled and said, "My mission is
1:12:09complete once I've brought you here.
1:12:11Thank you, fellow Daist Luo." Such
1:12:13Chanqing and the others quickly cuped
1:12:15their hands and thanks. You're too kind.
1:12:18I'll need your help again in the future.
1:12:20Lu Buching waved his hand. He treated
1:12:22outer disciples with the same
1:12:23indifference as most formal disciples.
1:12:26But now Su Chongqing and others have
1:12:28been promoted to full-fledged employees,
1:12:30which means they are now on the same
1:12:32level as him. Therefore, one should not
1:12:34maintain a cold expression lest one
1:12:36leave a bad impression. Although the
1:12:38disciples of Lintion are not very
1:12:40strong, they provide a lot of resources.
1:12:43Therefore, they are the type of people
1:12:44you absolutely cannot afford to offend.
1:12:47After Su Chongqing and the others jumped
1:12:49off the crane's back, Crane 19 took off
1:12:51again. Not long after, it disappeared
1:12:54into the horizon carrying Lu Bing.
1:12:56Everyone, let's go inside. Such Chonqing
1:12:59called out. The group headed towards the
1:13:01entrance of the spirit field core
1:13:03management office directly ahead. Upon
1:13:05entering, they found no one there
1:13:07because we need to take care of the
1:13:08spiritual plants. Therefore, most of the
1:13:11formal disciples in the spiritual field
1:13:13rarely leave their homes. They only come
1:13:15to the LinkedIn core management office
1:13:17when there's a reason. However, deep
1:13:19within the palace grows a spiritual
1:13:21plant. It is a red flower. There was a
1:13:24cluster of huge flower buds. Linen
1:13:26couldn't help but call out, "Is anyone
1:13:28there?" "Yes," came the reply. Suddenly,
1:13:31the flower buds bloomed. It revealed a
1:13:33human face, but it appeared rather old.
1:13:36Its surface is wrinkled like the peel of
1:13:38a dried orange with one wrinkle
1:13:40overlapping the other. It looks like
1:13:42it's lived for a very long time. It's
1:13:44covered in the marks of time. Demon
1:13:46Linen was startled and almost screamed.
1:13:49Su Chonqing quickly stopped him then
1:13:51respectfully greeted him. Senior, there
1:13:53is a precedent with Crane 19 since the
1:13:56other party dared to appear at the
1:13:57Lingian core management office. That
1:14:00means it's not simple. The junior
1:14:02reacted quite quickly. The man forced a
1:14:04slightly stiff smile. Su Chongqing then
1:14:06asked curiously, "We are outer disciples
1:14:09of the Spiritfield sect who successfully
1:14:11passed the third quarter's assessment.
1:14:13We've come here specifically to become
1:14:14official disciples. May I ask who you
1:14:17are, senior? The face replied, My name
1:14:19is Huao and I am in charge of the core
1:14:21area. Su Chonqing and the others were
1:14:24shocked. Unexpectedly, the person in
1:14:26charge of this spirit field core
1:14:28management office is actually a flower.
1:14:30No, to be precise, it's a flower fairy
1:14:33who has lived for an unknown amount of
1:14:34time. Greetings, Steward. This time,
1:14:37everyone reacted quickly. Elder Hua
1:14:40smiled and said, "Youngsters, you have
1:14:42been officially recognized as disciples
1:14:44from the moment you received your formal
1:14:46disciple robes. The reason you are here
1:14:48is mainly to distribute second grade
1:14:50spirit fields and land deeds." "I see
1:14:52the group understood. Come on, pick
1:14:55one." After saying that, Old Hua
1:14:57unfurled a huge scroll. Inside was a map
1:15:00of the core area of the spirit field.
1:15:02Surprisingly, many places have already
1:15:04been marked. For example, the golden
1:15:07sunflowers that Su Chongqing and his
1:15:09group had seen earlier were among them.
1:15:11Is there any difference? Lenin couldn't
1:15:13help but ask. Ha replied. The difference
1:15:16is that some are near and some are far.
1:15:18Ziao Xiao immediately said, "I want to
1:15:20be closer to here." "All right." The
1:15:23contents of the scroll and old man
1:15:24Hua<unk>s hand blurred for a while, and
1:15:26soon only a few parts remained. All of
1:15:29them are grade two spirit fields closest
1:15:31to this spirit field core management
1:15:33office. Ziao Xiao made his choice after
1:15:35glancing at it a few times. In his view,
1:15:38the closer the better. This makes
1:15:40everything convenient. Soon it was Lin
1:15:42An's turn. This person chose a sacred
1:15:44field that was neither too close nor too
1:15:46far away, but the area was full of
1:15:48people. Then there's Su Chongqing. And
1:15:51you, young man. Old Master Hua had a
1:15:53good impression of this young man. Su
1:15:55Chongqing said slowly, "I like quiet. I
1:15:58want to be far away in a secluded place.
1:16:01There were only three places. Old Hua
1:16:03remembered this very clearly. Soon,
1:16:05three locations appeared before Su
1:16:07Chongqing. They are all the furthest
1:16:09from the Lingian core management office.
1:16:12One place is at the foot of the
1:16:13mountain. One is on its way. One is
1:16:15located near an abandoned cave. Su
1:16:17Chongqing asked, "May I ask, Steuart,
1:16:20are there any powerful formally trained
1:16:22disciples nearby?" Old Hua said, "There
1:16:25are people at the first and second
1:16:27locations, but there's no one around the
1:16:29third location." Su Chongqing
1:16:31immediately decided. Then I'll choose
1:16:33the third option. Why choose such a far
1:16:35place? Linen didn't quite understand.
1:16:38Wouldn't it be better if you stayed with
1:16:39us? Ziaozi was also puzzled. I'm not
1:16:42much of a communicator. Haha. Su
1:16:44Chonqing grinned. It's your turn to
1:16:46choose. At this moment, old Hua<unk>s
1:16:48gaze fell on Xiaoing. Iing was about to
1:16:51start choosing with an excited
1:16:53expression. Choose the one closest to
1:16:54me. At that moment, a familiar voice
1:16:57rang out. Xiaoing couldn't help but
1:16:59shudder after hearing the voice. The
1:17:01smile on his face vanished. A hint of
1:17:03pain surfaced deep in his eyes. Everyone
1:17:06turned around and saw that it was indeed
1:17:08air. Old Hua said bluntly. It was his
1:17:11choice, not yours. What do you think?
1:17:13Jeang looked at Xiaoing, then smiled
1:17:16meaningfully. Ziaoing chuckled dryly and
1:17:18said, "Yes, I chose the spirit field
1:17:21closest to Senior Brotherhang." Such
1:17:23Chanqing and Lynn and exchanged a
1:17:25glance. The two then looked at Xiaoing
1:17:27with a hint of sympathy. Judging from
1:17:29this, the reason this person was able to
1:17:31become a formal disciple is, "It's
1:17:33definitely related to Xangir. Even if I
1:17:36get a permanent position, so what?" From
1:17:38then on, he was no better than someone
1:17:40else's slave. All right, everyone has
1:17:42made their choices. Here are your land
1:17:44deeds. Old Hua didn't care about any
1:17:46tricks involved and directly took out
1:17:48the land deeds. Su Chongqing took it and
1:17:50found it was a talisman. because it is
1:17:53not activated, the surface is dull.
1:17:55Without hesitation, he immediately
1:17:57forced a drop of blood from his right
1:17:59hand and pressed it onto the wound. Sure
1:18:01enough, as soon as the blood was
1:18:03absorbed, a faint halo appeared on the
1:18:05talisman. Linen and Ziao Xio, who were
1:18:08standing nearby, followed suit and did
1:18:10the same. Xiaoing felt a thousand
1:18:12regrets. But my hands were still
1:18:14shaking. He handed it to someone who was
1:18:16eyeing him menacingly nearby. However,
1:18:18Zangir was far from satisfied with the
1:18:20land deed he had obtained. His eyes
1:18:22darted greedily towards Su Chongqing and
1:18:25Linen. The grand competition for formal
1:18:27disciples is held once every 10 years.
1:18:30The next one will be in 2 years. The
1:18:32higher the ranking, the better the
1:18:33corresponding benefits. If you're lucky,
1:18:36you might even become an apprentice of a
1:18:37celestial master and become a core
1:18:39disciple. If these spiritual fields
1:18:41provide resources, Jangir's strength
1:18:44will definitely grow rapidly within two
1:18:46years and he may even break through to
1:18:48the foundation establishment stage. Then
1:18:50we can start climbing the rankings.
1:18:52However, Su Chongqing and Lynn and not
1:18:54only did not compromise but even became
1:18:57formal disciples. Not only did the three
1:18:59become peers, but they also remained
1:19:01competitors. This made Jeang air very
1:19:04unhappy. Chapter 10. Fate is bound by
1:19:06a,000 lb walking alone through thorns.
1:19:10Chapter 10. Fate is bound by a,000 lb
1:19:13walking alone through thorns and
1:19:14flowers. The old man reminded them there
1:19:17are houses near the spirit field, so you
1:19:19don't need to worry about resting. If
1:19:21you are not satisfied or if you have
1:19:23your own ideas, you can ask the earth
1:19:25spirit route disciples to help you
1:19:26modify them. Yes, the group nodded. Hao
1:19:30added. In addition, considering that the
1:19:32fourth quarter is winter and you have
1:19:34just joined, the production report can
1:19:36be waved this year and will officially
1:19:38begin at the beginning of spring next
1:19:39year. That's fantastic. Linen and Xiao
1:19:42Xiao<unk>s eyes lit up upon hearing
1:19:44this. So, it can be planted. Such
1:19:46Chanqing blinked. Elder Hua immediately
1:19:49said, "If you choose to plant it, you
1:19:51must submit at least 1,000 caddies of
1:19:53grade two spirit rice by the end of the
1:19:55year. I want to give it a try." Su
1:19:57Chongqing didn't want to give up the
1:19:59opportunity to harvest lifespan. Old
1:20:01Master Hua reminded him, "Young man, you
1:20:04should think this through carefully as
1:20:06production will decrease in winter."
1:20:08"Lin couldn't help but advise." "Yes,
1:20:10fellow Daist Su. Is it really necessary
1:20:13to work so hard? The way you're doing it
1:20:15makes it sound like we all like to slack
1:20:17off," Xiaoza said, slightly displeased.
1:20:20"Since I'm just idling around anyway, I
1:20:22should at least do something." Su
1:20:23Chaning shrugged. Whatever you like, Old
1:20:26Hua wrote down Su Choning<unk>s name.
1:20:28The reactions of the people nearby to
1:20:30this were varied. After struggling with
1:20:32the decision, Linen ultimately chose to
1:20:34give up, not daring to plant in winter.
1:20:37There are two main reasons. First,
1:20:39winter production will be lower and it
1:20:40is very likely that the task will not be
1:20:42completed. Second, once the crops are
1:20:45planted, half of the harvest must be
1:20:46shared with Hans Su and Ziao Xian. This
1:20:49means that if production is
1:20:50insufficient, it may be impossible to
1:20:52submit the task. It would be better to
1:20:54wait until the beginning of spring next
1:20:56year to officially begin. Not only did
1:20:58they have several months to prepare. You
1:21:00can also learn about the operation of
1:21:02the entire core area of the spirit
1:21:04field. Ziao Xiao was surprised to see
1:21:06that Su Chongqing, who had failed twice
1:21:08in a row, dared to accept the mission.
1:21:11He was very dissatisfied. Therefore, he
1:21:13also received a task from Elder Hua and
1:21:16planned to give it a try. As for
1:21:17Xiaoing, he had no choice at all. Jeang
1:21:20Air was forced to step forward and
1:21:21submit his name with just a glance.
1:21:24Elder Hua added, "By the way, formal
1:21:26disciples can receive a highle spell."
1:21:28"High level," Su Chongqing and the
1:21:31others eyes lit up. "There are three
1:21:33parts in total. Wood spirit cultivation
1:21:35technique, wood spirit entanglement
1:21:37technique, and wood spirit health
1:21:39preservation technique," Elder Hua
1:21:41explained. "What are the detailed
1:21:43effects?" Such Chanching pressed. The
1:21:45wood spirit cultivation technique is an
1:21:47advanced version of the evergreen
1:21:49technique. The wood spirit entanglement
1:21:52spell is the only offensive spell. As
1:21:54for the wood spirit nourishing life
1:21:56technique, as the name suggests, it is
1:21:58to prolong your lifespan. Elder Hua
1:22:00explained. Su Chongqing thought to
1:22:02himself, "Neither first nor third is
1:22:05suitable for me. First of all, his
1:22:07evergreen technique has already reached
1:22:09level five, which is more than enough.
1:22:12Secondly, I don't need to worry about
1:22:13lifespan at all, so I ignore it.
1:22:15Considering that Jeang Air next to him
1:22:17kept giving him a cannibalistic look.
1:22:20Clearly, this guy is up to something.
1:22:22Without proper protective measures, one
1:22:24might be killed. "Come and get it when
1:22:25you've made up your mind," Old Ha said,
1:22:28yawning. Lenon pondered. "Is there even
1:22:30a need to choose?" "It's definitely the
1:22:32wood spirit cultivation technique."
1:22:34"Yes," Ziao Xiaoa wholeheartedly agreed.
1:22:37"What should I choose?" Xiaoing looked
1:22:39at someone beside her. Zang Air said
1:22:41expressionlessly. Cultivation technique.
1:22:44Okay. Ziaing nodded. Soon everyone in
1:22:47front had finished receiving theirs.
1:22:49Seeing that Elder Hua's gaze was fixed
1:22:51on him, Su Chongqing asked, "Can these
1:22:53highle spells be exchanged later? If you
1:22:56have enough points, that's fine." Elder
1:22:58Hua replied affirmatively. Su Chongqing
1:23:01no longer hesitated. He decisively
1:23:03stepped forward to receive the wood
1:23:04spirit entanglement technique. The
1:23:07reason for choosing offensive spells was
1:23:08to prevent Jeang Air from retaliating
1:23:10later. So, it was better to strike
1:23:12first. In terms of planting, the maxle
1:23:15evergreen technique is sufficient. At
1:23:17worst, I can use the points to redeem
1:23:19the with spirit cultivation technique
1:23:21later. Huh. Elder Hua seemed quite
1:23:24surprised to see that the spell he had
1:23:25chosen was the only offensive spell
1:23:27among the three spells. However, he
1:23:30didn't say much more. Everyone has the
1:23:32right to choose. Even if it is in
1:23:34charge, it cannot interfere. What did
1:23:36you choose? Linen asked curiously as he
1:23:38stepped forward. Just like you guys, Su
1:23:41Chanqing shrugged. Linen and Xiao Xiao
1:23:43immediately showed expressions of I knew
1:23:45it. For Lenong, yield is everything.
1:23:48Since there's no need to go out and
1:23:50fight, there's no need to choose with
1:23:52spirit entanglement. As for lifespan,
1:23:55those who cultivate with a wood
1:23:56elemental root are born to live longer
1:23:58than others. At this moment, Su
1:24:00Chongqing held the jade tablet in his
1:24:02hand and then covered it with spiritual
1:24:05power. Immediately, information about
1:24:07the would spirit entanglement technique
1:24:09appeared in his mind. As expected of a
1:24:12highle spell, it is much more profound
1:24:14than the low-level evergreen technique.
1:24:16Because it is an offensive spell, there
1:24:18are certain requirements. One must be at
1:24:20least in the mid-stage chi refining to
1:24:22be qualified to cultivate. The initial
1:24:25stage ofqi refining was somewhat
1:24:26difficult. Upon successful cultivation,
1:24:29a spirit seal will appear within the
1:24:31body. After that, you can control the
1:24:34surrounding plants simply by consuming
1:24:36spiritual energy. Elder Huaz gaze
1:24:38shifted back and forth as he asked,
1:24:40"Next, will you choose the familiar
1:24:42spirit rice or some other spirit plant?"
1:24:45Su Chonqing put the jade pendant into
1:24:47his small storage bag, then asked
1:24:49curiously. "Anything else?" "Of course
1:24:51there are, and plenty of them," Old Hua
1:24:54said confidently. There probably aren't
1:24:56many that are suitable for us, right?
1:24:58Xiao Xiao wasn't stupid. If you are in
1:25:00the early stage ofQi refining and your
1:25:02evergreen technique is below level two,
1:25:04you can only choose spirit rice. Once
1:25:07you reach the middle stage of chi
1:25:08refining, you can choose up to 10 kinds
1:25:10of spirit plants. Elder Hua explained
1:25:12briefly, "I choose spirit rice." Su
1:25:15Chongqing didn't even ask any questions
1:25:17this time, although his cultivation
1:25:19level had reached the mid-stage ofQi
1:25:21refining. He even upgraded the evergreen
1:25:23technique to the fifth level meets the
1:25:26requirements. Logically, one should be
1:25:28able to choose other spiritual plants.
1:25:30But these things cannot be leaked out
1:25:32for the time being. Therefore, spirit
1:25:34rice is the only option. Otherwise, it
1:25:37would easily attract the attention of
1:25:38others, especially Jeang Air. I'll
1:25:41choose the spirit rice, too. Seeing that
1:25:43Su Chongqing was so decisive, Ziao Xiao
1:25:45naturally didn't dare to be careless.
1:25:48Soon, Ziaing also chose Linga. While
1:25:50they were on the outskirts, they planted
1:25:52for two to three seasons. They are very
1:25:54familiar with this and have a wealth of
1:25:56experience in it. Even if other
1:25:58spiritual plants were used, the yield
1:26:00would not be high, even if they did not
1:26:02fail. Pack your things. You can leave
1:26:04now. After Elder Hua finished
1:26:06distributing the spirit seedlings, the
1:26:08reception task was also over. Let's go.
1:26:11Such Chongqing took the lead and walked
1:26:13outside. Before long, everyone arrived
1:26:15outside the palace. Then you look at me.
1:26:18I'm looking at you. Finally, everyone
1:26:20looked at Xiaoing, who was standing next
1:26:22to Jeang Air. Only the four of them were
1:26:24officially promoted this time, and their
1:26:26feelings were somewhat complicated as
1:26:28they parted ways. From now on, we<unk>ll
1:26:31be stuck in our own little worlds, and
1:26:32there probably won't be many chances for
1:26:34us to meet. Good luck to everyone. Such
1:26:37Chonqing cupped his hands in greeting to
1:26:39the group before leaving. Linen smiled
1:26:41at Ziao Xi Yao and said, "We live close
1:26:43by, so we can visit each other more
1:26:45often." "Okay." Ziao Xiao naturally
1:26:48wouldn't refuse. The two had originally
1:26:50planned to have a talk with Xiaoing, but
1:26:52upon seeing Zangir beside the other
1:26:54person, he finally shook his head. Soon,
1:26:57only Zang Air and Xiaoing remained on
1:26:59the huge mountaintop platform, watching
1:27:01Su Chongqing, Linen, and Xiao Xiao
1:27:04leave. Xiaoing was incredibly envious.
1:27:07At that moment, a hand was placed on his
1:27:09shoulder. It may seem weightless, but it
1:27:11brings immense pressure. Xiao Ying<unk>s
1:27:13back suddenly became hunched and she
1:27:15could never straighten it again. Chapter
1:27:1711, The Wandering Merchant who doesn't
1:27:19return, relieving worries and solving
1:27:22difficulties. Chapter 11, The Wandering
1:27:24Merchant does not return, solving
1:27:26worries and difficulties as the view
1:27:28broadens. Such Chan finally saw the
1:27:31second grade spirit field that belonged
1:27:33to him alone. At first glance, it seems
1:27:35to be similar to the first grade spirit
1:27:37fields on the outskirts. There is no
1:27:39difference in either the area or the
1:27:41height of the field ridges. However,
1:27:43upon closer inspection, you will find
1:27:45that the soil is black. This is clearly
1:27:48black soil with higher nutrient content.
1:27:50Not only can it produce spiritual plants
1:27:52of extremely high quality, even
1:27:54production will increase. Not far away,
1:27:57about 10 m away, there was an abandoned
1:27:59wooden house. Such Chonqing took a
1:28:02closer look and found that there was no
1:28:03dust inside. There weren't even any
1:28:05snakes, insects, rats, or ants. It was
1:28:09exceptionally clean. Inside, it has one
1:28:12bedroom, one living room, one bathroom,
1:28:14and one kitchen. The house wasn't
1:28:16decorated much, only containing everyday
1:28:18items like beds and kitchen wear. Not
1:28:21bad. Such Chonqing was quite satisfied.
1:28:23Whatever is missing, we can fill it in
1:28:25gradually later. At least it's sheltered
1:28:27from the wind and rain. The first thing
1:28:29Su Chongqing did was change his clothes.
1:28:32He always disliked the gray clothes worn
1:28:34by the outer disciples. They quickly
1:28:36changed into the white robes that only
1:28:38formal disciples wore. A green rice
1:28:40seedling was embroidered on her chest.
1:28:42Her entire demeanor also changed. It
1:28:45appears more composed. He wouldn't be
1:28:47immediately recognized as a spiritual
1:28:49farmer. Next up is the spirit rice
1:28:51porridge I've been longing for. Su
1:28:53Chonqing grinned. As long as you become
1:28:55a formal disciple of the Daing immortal
1:28:57sect, then there's no need to drink
1:28:59regular rice porridge anymore. This 100
1:29:01caddies of spirit rice should last until
1:29:04at least next spring. Such Chonqing
1:29:06immediately went to the kitchen, set up
1:29:07a pot, and boiled water. Half an hour
1:29:10later, a pot of fragrant spirit rice
1:29:12porridge was ready. The wood element
1:29:14content in the kitchen has been
1:29:15significantly increased. Su Chongqing
1:29:18ladled out a small bowlful and then
1:29:20examined it closely. This spirit rice is
1:29:22more plump than ordinary rice. Even
1:29:25after being cooked, it doesn't feel like
1:29:26it's falling apart. It's even a bit
1:29:28bouncy. And after solidifying, it's like
1:29:31jelly. Such choning took a small bite
1:29:33and his eyes lit up. The texture of
1:29:35Lingi is absolutely amazing. With one
1:29:38bite, the spiritual energy bursts forth,
1:29:41mingling with the aroma. I was
1:29:43completely mesmerized by the aroma. Huh?
1:29:45Su Chongqing exclaimed in surprise. The
1:29:48spiritual power is increasing, although
1:29:50it is relatively slow, but this thing
1:29:52itself has no restrictions and can be
1:29:54consumed for a long time. W Jangir, Han
1:29:57Su, Xiaoaxin and others. Every single
1:30:00one of them is eyeing the spirit rice.
1:30:02That's the reason. Moreover, the spirit
1:30:05rice produced in the first grade spirit
1:30:07field has this effect. If it's a second
1:30:09rank or higher, you can imagine how
1:30:11astonishing that would be. After eating
1:30:13and drinking his fill, Su Chongqing did
1:30:15not rest. There were no spirit seedlings
1:30:18planted. Instead, he took out the jade
1:30:20tablet and continued learning the with
1:30:22spirit entanglement technique. As long
1:30:25as Jeangir is alive, he will always feel
1:30:27a sense of crisis. Therefore, it is
1:30:30essential to have the ability to protect
1:30:31oneself. However, this with spirit
1:30:34entanglement technique is after all a
1:30:37highle spell. It's impossible to learn
1:30:39it all at once. Fortunately, Such
1:30:42Chonqing is different now. Previously,
1:30:44it would have taken more than 2 months
1:30:46to even begin to grasp the basics. But
1:30:48now, Su Chonqing feels that it will take
1:30:50no more than a month. Once you learn it,
1:30:53you can use the cheat code to forcibly
1:30:55level up. The time has come to the third
1:30:57day since I became a formal disciple. Su
1:31:00Chongqing carried a hoe and began to
1:31:02loosen the soil in this acre of second
1:31:04grade spiritual land. It's winter now
1:31:06and the temperature is getting lower and
1:31:08lower, and the weather is getting colder
1:31:10and colder. This results in the black
1:31:12soil being harder than expected. If it
1:31:14weren't for reaching the mid-stage ofQi
1:31:16refining with five strands of spiritual
1:31:18energy supporting him within his body,
1:31:21it's really impossible to get everything
1:31:23done in a short time. Su Chonqing
1:31:25thought to himself, "I wonder how much
1:31:27production there will be." "Oh my god,
1:31:29there's someone here." Just then, a
1:31:31surprised exclamation came from not far
1:31:33away. Such Chonqing hurriedly looked
1:31:35over and was immediately stunned. Then
1:31:37they saw a fat man leading a mythical
1:31:39beast that looked like a camel
1:31:41approaching step by step. The spirit
1:31:43beast had a bell the size of a palm
1:31:45hanging around its neck. The moment it
1:31:47was moved, a ringing sound immediately
1:31:49rang out. The spirit beast's back was
1:31:52covered with bundles. As the other party
1:31:54drew closer, a foul odor began to w
1:31:56through the air. My name is Hubuay, and
1:31:59I am a formal disciple of the spirit
1:32:01beast valley. May I ask who you are,
1:32:03fellow daist? The slightly plump Hubuay
1:32:06grinned, and the two lumps of fat on his
1:32:08cheeks jiggled a few times. Such
1:32:10choning. Su Chongqing introduced
1:32:12himself. Hubui then asked, "Fellow
1:32:15Daoist Su, are you a newly arrived
1:32:17spirit farmer?" "Yes, I just became a
1:32:20formal disciple." Su Chonqing nodded
1:32:22slightly. "You're loosening the soil.
1:32:24Are you planning to plant in the
1:32:25winter?" Hubui asked, quite surprised.
1:32:28Such Chonqing laughed and said, "Anyway,
1:32:31I'm just idling around." "What a
1:32:33coincidence. I have what you need here."
1:32:35Hubu<unk>s eyes lit up. "Are you a
1:32:37trafficker?" Su Chonqing asked in
1:32:40astonishment. That's one way to put it,
1:32:42but to be precise, I'm a businessman on
1:32:44the rise. Hubuay revealed a smug
1:32:47expression. What are you selling? Such
1:32:49Chonqing asked very curious. I come from
1:32:51the spirit beast valley, so naturally I
1:32:54brought spirit beast excrement. Hubuay
1:32:56turned around, took down a small
1:32:58package, and then opened it, facing Su
1:33:00Chongqing. Immediately, an even more
1:33:03pungent stench wafted out. The choking
1:33:05caused Su Chongqing to stumble back
1:33:07several steps. Only after the smell had
1:33:09dissipated somewhat did they move
1:33:11forward again. Upon closer inspection,
1:33:13it was found to be filled with chunks of
1:33:15spirit beast droppings. It is dark in
1:33:17color and contains a lot of plant
1:33:19fibers. It must have been collected over
1:33:21a period of time, which is why it's a
1:33:23bit dry. Hubuay laughed and said, "This
1:33:26is the excrement of a 100-year-old
1:33:28spirit beast, which is a perfect match
1:33:30for your second grade spirit field. What
1:33:32price?" Su Choning asked thoughtfully.
1:33:35Black soil is naturally highly
1:33:37nutritious, but if you add the excrement
1:33:39of spirit beasts, it will definitely be
1:33:41like adding wings to a tiger. Especially
1:33:44now that it's winter, everyone wants to
1:33:46increase production, Hubui said
1:33:48generously. Originally, 100 caddies of
1:33:51dung from a 100-year-old spirit beast
1:33:53would cost 10 low-grade spirit stones.
1:33:55But since you're a new customer, I'll
1:33:57give you eight. Su Chongqing shook his
1:33:59head and said, "I don't have spirit
1:34:01stones. I only have spirit rice." Hubuay
1:34:04nodded. Spirit rice is better. Such
1:34:07Chanqing asked, puzzled. How many spirit
1:34:09stones can 10 caddies of first grade
1:34:11spirit rice be exchanged for? Uh Hubui
1:34:14chuckled dryly. 10 caddies of first
1:34:17grade spirit rice is worth one low-grade
1:34:19spirit stone on the market. Although
1:34:21there is a high demand for lingi rice,
1:34:23its production is also quite high. The
1:34:25price of premium rice has remained
1:34:27relatively stable. Only the higher the
1:34:29quality and the rarer the species of the
1:34:31spiritual plant, the more expensive it
1:34:33will be. So 10 caddies of firstgrade
1:34:36spirit rice is equivalent to 10 caddies
1:34:38of excrement from a 100-year-old spirit
1:34:40beast. Such choning was stunned by this
1:34:43result. Well, things are valued for
1:34:45their rarity, who Buguay awkwardly
1:34:47explained. It's too expensive. Can you
1:34:50give me a friendly price? We're not
1:34:51doing this once and for all. You can't
1:34:53just never come back to me, can you?
1:34:55Such Chanqing didn't want to give up
1:34:57easily. who Buguay wholeheartedly
1:34:59agreed. That's how business works. There
1:35:01should be give and take and mutual
1:35:03trust. So he thought about it for a
1:35:05moment and then raised his two chubby
1:35:07fingers on his right hand. What do you
1:35:08mean? Such Chanqing didn't understand.
1:35:11Hubui said seriously. Give me 10 caddies
1:35:14of first grade spirit rice and I'll give
1:35:16you 20 caddies of 100-year-old spirit
1:35:18beast excrement. How about it? Just 20
1:35:21lb. Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow. 25
1:35:24gan that's the most I can do. Hubuay
1:35:27gritted his teeth. Deal. Su Chongqing
1:35:30didn't want to ruin the relationship.
1:35:32After the two finished their
1:35:33transaction, Hubuay suddenly smiled
1:35:35mysteriously. I have some good things
1:35:37here. Fellow Daist Su, would you like to
1:35:40take a look? Good stuff. Such Chongqing
1:35:42expressed serious doubt about it. If
1:35:44they're selling manure, what good stuff
1:35:46can they possibly have left? Perhaps to
1:35:48prove his strength, Hubuay took out a
1:35:50small storage bag, opened it, and took
1:35:52out several items. Each contained a pot
1:35:54of wine, a paper figure. There were also
1:35:57a few seeds stuck with the droppings of
1:35:59the spirit beast. Su Chongqing
1:36:01immediately showed a disgusted
1:36:02expression and said, "What is all this?
1:36:05You're all alone. You definitely need
1:36:07help and support. This paper figure was
1:36:09personally designed by the talisman
1:36:11drawing master of Royal Water Pavilion.
1:36:13It can be made to look like a man or a
1:36:15woman, and its lielike effect is
1:36:17comparable to that of a real person.
1:36:19It's currently priced at only 50 caddies
1:36:21of first grade spirit rice. Hubuay
1:36:24finished speaking and made a series of
1:36:26winking gestures. Such Chonqing was
1:36:28immediately speechless. Chapter 12. The
1:36:31spirit seedling is growing strong and
1:36:33the market opens for the new year.
1:36:35Chapter 12. The seedlings were thriving.
1:36:37During the New Year market, they noticed
1:36:39that the other party remains silent and
1:36:41had a strange expression. Well, Hubu
1:36:44sighed and said, "I admit I used it. 40
1:36:47caddies of spirit rice should be fine,
1:36:49right? What? Such Choning<unk>s eyes
1:36:51widened upon hearing this. This is a
1:36:53used one. 30 caddies of spirit rice.
1:36:56That's the lowest I can go. Hubuay said
1:36:59with a pained expression. Who said they
1:37:01were going to buy it? Su Chongqing
1:37:03rolled his eyes in annoyance. Huh? No
1:37:05way. Hubuay was extremely embarrassed.
1:37:08Su Chongqing waved his hand and said, "I
1:37:11don't want the paper figure. What's in
1:37:12this bottle?" Hubui immediately said, "A
1:37:16century old monkey wine. Absolutely a
1:37:18good thing. What effect?" Su Chongqing
1:37:20asked curiously. Hubuay replied, "It can
1:37:23slowly replenish spiritual energy.
1:37:26It's<unk> not very useful to me." Su
1:37:28Chongqing shook his head, then looked at
1:37:30the third item and asked, "What kind of
1:37:32seed is this?" Hubay shook his head and
1:37:34said, "I don't know what kind of
1:37:36spiritual plant the seed is, but it was
1:37:38pulled out by a thousand-year-old
1:37:40spiritual beast, so the price is not
1:37:42low. You probably can't afford it. Name
1:37:44a price so I can give up. Such Chongqing
1:37:46really didn't believe the new gadget
1:37:48could be that expensive. Since it was
1:37:50eaten by a thousand-year-old spirit
1:37:52beast, it must not be an ordinary spirit
1:37:54plant. Although, there is an element of
1:37:56gambling involved. Isn't that part of
1:37:58its appeal? Anyway, I'm just idling
1:38:00around. So, who knows? Maybe I'll get
1:38:02some unexpected goodies. 300 caddies of
1:38:05second grade spirit rice. Hubuay raised
1:38:08his three chubby fingers on his right
1:38:09hand. A swindler. Such Chanqing
1:38:12instantly lost interest. If you don't
1:38:14buy it, I'm leaving. Hubuay didn't want
1:38:16to linger for too long. Su Chonqing
1:38:18called out. Wait. Hubuay chuckled. I
1:38:21knew you needed paper figures. Such
1:38:23Choning quickly said, "I don't want to
1:38:25buy anything, but could you help me find
1:38:27a recipe for brewing wine? You want to
1:38:29brew spirit rice wine?" Hubuay put away
1:38:32his lwd expression. Yes. Su Choning
1:38:35nodded. Okay, I'll bring it to you next
1:38:37month, but you have to pay a deposit
1:38:39first. A sly glint flashed in
1:38:41Hubu<unk>'s eyes. Such Chong immediately
1:38:44asked, "How much?" Hubui blurted out,
1:38:46"10 caddies of first grade spirit rice.
1:38:49Give me five caddies first. Take it."
1:38:51Such Chongqing didn't lack this little
1:38:53bit of spirit rice. Same time next
1:38:55month. Hubway, looking smug, let his
1:38:58spirit beast camel away quickly. When we
1:39:01arrived at a secluded place, he opened
1:39:03his small storage bag, rummaged through
1:39:05it, and pulled out a recipe for brewing
1:39:07spirit rice wine. While this thing isn't
1:39:10ubiquitous, many spiritual farmers
1:39:12possess it. Although the price of Lingi
1:39:14rice is not high, Lingi wine is
1:39:16different. Why didn't you just sell it
1:39:17earlier? Wouldn't that make it a
1:39:19one-time transaction? Only by making the
1:39:21other person constantly think about you
1:39:23can you be remembered. A few more days
1:39:25passed and the temperature dropped
1:39:27further. Such Chonqing then began to
1:39:29plant the spirit rice. The quality of
1:39:32spirit rice is closely related to the
1:39:34spirit field. The higher the grade of a
1:39:36spirit field, the more spiritual energy
1:39:38it contains. Naturally, the quality of
1:39:40the spiritual plants grown will also
1:39:42improve. At the same time, production
1:39:45also increased. At a firstgrade
1:39:47spiritual field, the production capacity
1:39:49is only 1,000 caddies. No matter how
1:39:52many there are, it won't exceed 1,500
1:39:55gene. Linen even brought in earth and
1:39:57water spirit roots to help, but it still
1:40:00only weighed 1,100 gene. In a second
1:40:03grade spirit field, the yield can be
1:40:05doubled directly starting at 2,000
1:40:07caddies. If we combine cultivation
1:40:09realm, spell level, external factors,
1:40:12etc., it can even reach 3,000 caddies.
1:40:15This is why Sue Chongqing would buy
1:40:17spirit beast excrement. However, these
1:40:20few dozen kg are simply not enough to
1:40:22cover the entire spirit field.
1:40:24Therefore, it was deliberately placed in
1:40:26a corner as an experiment. Let's see how
1:40:28the quality of the spiritual plants is
1:40:30and how much yield they have after
1:40:32adding the excrement of a 100-year-old
1:40:34spirit beast. And so the fourth season
1:40:36of planting officially began. When the
1:40:38spirit seedlings filled the second grade
1:40:40spirit field, the surrounding wood
1:40:42spirit energy rapidly increased. It
1:40:44truly lives up to its reputation as a
1:40:46core area. The wood element content is
1:40:49higher. Such Chonqing immediately sat
1:40:51cross-legged on the edge of the field
1:40:53and then began to circulate the Chonqing
1:40:55technique. Instantly, a powerful suction
1:40:58force drew the wood elemental energy
1:41:00from the spirit field into its body.
1:41:02Five strands of spiritual energy began
1:41:05to circulate. It cycles through one day
1:41:07after another. In the days that
1:41:09followed, Su Chongqing continued his
1:41:11cultivation. Finally, next month,
1:41:13December, is here. The appointed time
1:41:15for meeting with Hubui, a disciple of
1:41:18the spirit beast valley, had arrived.
1:41:20Such Chanching cultivated while
1:41:22patiently waiting. Just then, as more
1:41:24and more spiritual energy accumulated
1:41:26within his body, suddenly a sixth wisp
1:41:29of spiritual energy appeared, although
1:41:31it may seem like just an extra wisp of
1:41:33spiritual energy, but it represents a
1:41:35further step forward in strength. Fellow
1:41:38Daist Su who Buguay<unk>s voice rang out
1:41:40from afar, Su Chongqing, opened his eyes
1:41:43and looked toward the source of the
1:41:44sound, the familiar mythical creature,
1:41:47the camel, the familiar ringtone, a
1:41:49familiar package, and his familiar plump
1:41:51cheeks. Hubui said with a smile. Fellow
1:41:54Daist Su, I'm<unk> very punctual, aren't
1:41:56I? Of course. Su Chongqing nodded
1:41:59slightly. Is this the spirit rice you
1:42:01planted? Hubuay didn't care at first,
1:42:04but he suddenly froze as he looked at
1:42:05it. Although he was a disciple of the
1:42:07spirit beast valley. However, because he
1:42:10often trades in the core area of
1:42:11Linkion, he has a good eye for business.
1:42:14Upon closer inspection, one could see
1:42:16that the rice in front of them was
1:42:17incredibly robust. Keep in mind, this
1:42:20was planted in winter. It is more
1:42:22difficult and requires more skill. Now
1:42:24he is in no way inferior to those
1:42:26experienced old ling nongs. If I
1:42:28remember correctly, the other party had
1:42:30only been a formal disciple for 2
1:42:32months. This startled Hubu. Then the
1:42:35smile on his face became even brighter.
1:42:37It's<unk> indeed difficult to cultivate
1:42:39them in winter. Su Chongqing said with a
1:42:41smile. Uh yes, yes, yes. Hubu agreed on
1:42:45the surface, but was actually
1:42:46speechless. If this is still considered
1:42:48difficult to cultivate, what about the
1:42:50others? Is it useless? Did you bring the
1:42:53brewing recipe? Such Chanqing asked
1:42:55expectantly since you promised,
1:42:57"Brother, then you have to get it."
1:42:59Hubui patted his chest and then took it
1:43:01out of his small storage bag. Such
1:43:03Chonqing took it and looked at it. It
1:43:06was indeed the recipe for brewing spirit
1:43:08rice wine. The main ingredient is lingi,
1:43:10a type of rice. The process involves
1:43:12soaking rice, steaming, cooling, mixing
1:43:15with yeast, sacrification, and alcoholic
1:43:18fermentation. The steps are very
1:43:20detailed and easy to understand.
1:43:22However, to Sue Choning surprise, the
1:43:25properties panel suddenly changed. Below
1:43:27is the evergreen technique, five levels.
1:43:30Another new item has been added. Spirit
1:43:32rice wine beginner. What does this tell
1:43:34us? This means that you can also improve
1:43:36your lifespan by consuming it. Don't
1:43:38worry, it's definitely not fake. who
1:43:40Buguay assured him. Okay, I'll give you
1:43:43the remaining five catties of spirit
1:43:44rice. Su Chongqing snapped out of his
1:43:47days and took out his small storage bag.
1:43:49After receiving the remaining five
1:43:51catties of grade 1 spirit rice, Hubu
1:43:54asked with a curious look, "Brother Su,
1:43:56how many caddies of grade two spirit
1:43:58rice can your acre of spirit field
1:44:00produce?" After thinking for a moment,
1:44:02Su Chongqing replied, "About 1,500 gene.
1:44:06If all goes well, the yield should be
1:44:08around 2,000 gene." The quarterly task
1:44:11only requires submitting 1,000 kg. In
1:44:14other words, he has an additional
1:44:16thousand caddies of profit. I certainly
1:44:18couldn't tell everything, so I
1:44:19deliberately concealed half of it. In
1:44:22any case, one should always be wary of
1:44:24others. Hubui pondered. 500 caddies of
1:44:27second grade spirit rice. That should be
1:44:29enough. What do you mean? Su Chongqing
1:44:32raised an eyebrow. During the spring
1:44:34festival, the immortal sect will hold a
1:44:36market in Red Maple Valley where formal
1:44:38disciples and even core disciples from
1:44:40all regions will participate. Hubuay
1:44:43explained, "What does this have to do
1:44:44with me?" Su Chonqing still didn't
1:44:46understand. You can use spirit rice to
1:44:49trade for other things. Hubuay said
1:44:51earnestly. That's right. Such Chonqing
1:44:54finally realized. Chapter 13 with spirit
1:44:56entanglement technique. Necrotic insects
1:44:59sprout in the spirit field. Chapter 13
1:45:01with spirit entanglement technique. Bad
1:45:04insects sprout in the spirit field.
1:45:06Hubuay is gone. But Su Choning kept the
1:45:09idea of opening a market during the
1:45:11spring festival in mind. Even if you
1:45:13don't get anything good in return, you
1:45:14can still join in the fun. Moreover,
1:45:17this is inside the daunting immortal
1:45:19sect. So there is no danger at all. As
1:45:21evening fell, after eating rice cooked
1:45:24with spirit rice, Su Chongqing sat
1:45:26cross-legged on the bed, holding the
1:45:28jade pendant containing the with spirit
1:45:30entanglement technique in his right
1:45:32hand. He continued to study diligently.
1:45:34After about half an hour, the attribute
1:45:36panel appeared before my eyes. Such
1:45:39Chanqing, male, 18 years old. Remaining
1:45:42lifespan 5,140 days. Wood spirit root
1:45:46mid-stage chi refining low-level
1:45:49evergreen technique level five lingi
1:45:51wine beginner advanced with spirit
1:45:54entanglement level one effect one weeds
1:45:57turn into green vines effect two 50
1:45:59caddies tinsel strength per strand
1:46:02effect three temporarily binds the
1:46:04target finally such choning<unk>s eyes
1:46:06lit up for the past month I have been
1:46:08practicing during the day and studying
1:46:10continuously at night they compress
1:46:12their rest time to the absolute minimum
1:46:15Finally, all the hard work paid off and
1:46:17I learned my first highle spell.
1:46:19Slightly circulate the spiritual energy
1:46:21within your body. The elucory image of
1:46:24the character Vu would immediately
1:46:27appeared in the palm of his right hand.
1:46:29This is the spirit seal for the wood
1:46:30spirit entanglement technique. It seems
1:46:33impossible to remove, but it will
1:46:35automatically hide once the spiritual
1:46:37energy is dissipated. Su Chongqing
1:46:39decisively got out of bed, hurriedly
1:46:41went outside, and randomly found a
1:46:44vacant lot overgrown with weeds. He
1:46:46simply poured his spiritual energy into
1:46:48the wood character spirit seal.
1:46:50Suddenly, the weeds underfoot began to
1:46:52sway violently. Whoosh! Whoosh! Soon,
1:46:56one weed after another transformed into
1:46:58vines and sprang up. The more you have,
1:47:01the more spiritual energy you consume. A
1:47:03wisp of spiritual energy can support
1:47:05about 10 vines. A single vine can
1:47:08withstand a pulling force of 50 kg. 10
1:47:11pieces would weigh 500 gene, 250
1:47:13caddies, and so on. Therefore, the more
1:47:16vines there are, the greater the pulling
1:47:18force. With Such Chongqing's current six
1:47:20strands of spiritual power, he can
1:47:22support at least 50 vines. Hold for 3
1:47:25minutes. But Su Chongqing felt a little
1:47:27disappointed. As expected, the wood
1:47:30spirit route is not suitable for combat
1:47:32in the early stages. It is much weaker
1:47:34than the metal and fire spiritual roots.
1:47:36Even if it's the only offensive spell
1:47:38used by the wood spirit route, she
1:47:40refining stage cultivator of the
1:47:42daunting immortal sect. Nothing
1:47:44particularly outstanding. Then Su
1:47:47Chongqing walked to the other side. The
1:47:49vines around him followed closely
1:47:50behind. Soon we arrived at a popular
1:47:53tree that one person could encircle. Su
1:47:55Chongqing<unk>s heart skipped a beat,
1:47:57and the weeds under his feet immediately
1:47:59began to entangle around him. Click,
1:48:01click. Instantly, marks appeared on the
1:48:04surface of the popppler tree's trunk.
1:48:06Such Chonqing observed this and thought
1:48:08it was all right. Would you like to
1:48:09consume 2,233
1:48:11days of your lifespan to upgrade the
1:48:14wood spirit entanglement technique from
1:48:16level one to level two? As expected,
1:48:18highle cultivation techniques consume
1:48:21more lifespan. Such Chan was not
1:48:23surprised at all. The most urgent task
1:48:25is to improve our ability to protect
1:48:27ourselves. No matter how much you spend,
1:48:29it's an investment in your own security.
1:48:32He immediately selected agree.
1:48:34Successfully consumed 2,233
1:48:37days of lifespan to upgrade the wood
1:48:39spirit entanglement technique to level
1:48:41two. Remaining lifespan 2,97 days.
1:48:45Advanced wood spirit entanglement
1:48:47technique level two. Effect one, evolve
1:48:50into poison stinger. Effect two, 100
1:48:53caddies tinsel strength per single
1:48:55strand. Effect three, persistently binds
1:48:58the target. Effect four, paralyzing
1:49:00toxin. It can actually evolve. Su
1:49:03Chongqing was very surprised. He looked
1:49:05down. They discovered that all the vines
1:49:07had shrunk back into limp, weak growth.
1:49:10Immediately afterwards, another wisp of
1:49:12spiritual energy was injected into the
1:49:14wood spirit seal. Instantly, the weeds
1:49:17rapidly evolved into black, thorny,
1:49:19poisonous plants. When they entwined
1:49:21around the popular tree again, they were
1:49:23indeed different. The dense, sharp
1:49:25spikes covered it up, instantly creating
1:49:28one pinhole-sized hole after another.
1:49:30With a simple pull, large chunks of bark
1:49:32can be easily torn off. It was shocking
1:49:34in just a few moments. Although the
1:49:36paralytic toxin has not yet been tested.
1:49:39However, judging from the current
1:49:41situation, the power of the second level
1:49:43of the wood spirit entanglement
1:49:44technique is limited. It is obviously
1:49:47several times stronger than the first
1:49:48floor. This also means that Su Chongqing
1:49:51now has a certain ability to protect
1:49:53himself. Next, he turned his attention
1:49:55to the attribute panel. Lingi wine
1:49:57beginner effect one increases spiritual
1:50:00energy absorption speed by 5% within 1
1:50:03hour since the would spirit entanglement
1:50:06technique can only be upgraded to level
1:50:08two for the time being. Why not upgrade
1:50:10it as well? Would you like to consume
1:50:12888 days of your lifespan to upgrade
1:50:15your spirit rice wine skill from
1:50:17beginner to proficient? Yes. Immediately
1:50:20all sorts of experiences and techniques
1:50:22related to wine-making emerged. Before
1:50:24long, Su Chongqing had fully grasped the
1:50:27meaning. Successfully consumed 888 days
1:50:30of lifespan to upgrade spirit rice wine
1:50:33from beginner to proficient. Remaining
1:50:35lifespan 2019 days. Spirit rice wine
1:50:39proficient. Effect one, increases
1:50:41spiritual energy absorption speed by 10%
1:50:44within 1 hour. Effect two, increases the
1:50:47speed of learning low-level skills by 5%
1:50:50when slightly tipsy. Not bad. Such
1:50:52Choning nodded. This spirit rice wine is
1:50:55after all one of the most common wines
1:50:57in the cultivation world. The results
1:50:59are actually quite good. Would you like
1:51:01to consume 1566 days of your lifespan to
1:51:05upgrade your spirit rice wine skill to
1:51:07mastery? Let's continue. Such Chongqing
1:51:10was accepting. In an instant, a wealth
1:51:12of experience and skills emerged.
1:51:14Successfully consumed, 1566 days of
1:51:18lifespan to raise the skill level of
1:51:20spirit rice wine to mastery. Remaining
1:51:22lifespan 453 days. Lingi wine
1:51:26proficient. Effect one, increases
1:51:29spiritual energy absorption speed by 15%
1:51:31within 1 hour. Effect two, spiritual
1:51:34energy consumption during the use of
1:51:36woodtype techniques minus 10%. Effect
1:51:39three, increases the speed of learning
1:51:41low-level skills by 10% when slightly
1:51:43tipsy. Negative effect one, long-term
1:51:46consumption may slow down reaction
1:51:48speed. It actually has a negative
1:51:50effect. Su Chonqing raised an eyebrow.
1:51:53However, the increased speed of
1:51:55spiritual energy absorption is actually
1:51:57a bonus. Combined with the 50%
1:51:59cultivation speed bonus from the
1:52:01evergreen technique, level five, I feel
1:52:03that I will soon be able to break
1:52:05through to the late stage ofqi refining.
1:52:07In the days that followed, Su Chongqing
1:52:09did not let his guard down. I immerse
1:52:11myself in cultivation everyday. Finally,
1:52:142 months after becoming a formal
1:52:16disciple, the seventh strand of
1:52:18spiritual energy was born. Thus, we are
1:52:21not far from the late stage ofqi
1:52:22refining. This cultivation speed has far
1:52:25surpassed that of Lynn and the others.
1:52:27They even caught up with those veteran
1:52:29spirit farmers who had been in the core
1:52:30area of the spirit field for several
1:52:32years. These people have abundant
1:52:34resources plus at least two layers of
1:52:36the evergreen technique to help them.
1:52:38Some people even advanced to the third
1:52:40level. But compared to Such Chongqing,
1:52:42he still falls short. After all, his
1:52:45evergreen technique had already been
1:52:46upgraded to the fifth level. The
1:52:48cultivation speed increased by a full
1:52:5150%. Strange. Why are these spiritual
1:52:54plants covered with yellowish brown
1:52:55spots. Such Chongqing came to the edge
1:52:58of the field just about to start
1:53:00cultivating when he made an unexpected
1:53:02discovery. He immediately sensed it and
1:53:04his expression changed slightly. It
1:53:06turns out that these yellowish brown
1:53:08dots are actually live insects. They
1:53:10have occupied the vast majority of the
1:53:12second grade spirit fields. The trunk
1:53:14and ears of the sacred rice were almost
1:53:16completely covered with it. This was the
1:53:18first time Su Chongqing had encountered
1:53:20such a situation. In the past, when we
1:53:23were outside the spirit field, nothing
1:53:25like this had happened for almost a
1:53:26year. After thinking it over, he
1:53:28immediately headed towards the core
1:53:30management office, hoping to consult
1:53:32with Elder Hua. Upon arriving at the
1:53:34mountaintop palace, I noticed many
1:53:36fellow disciples coming and going. Old
1:53:38Hua Su Chongqing saw him again. Su
1:53:41Chongqing. Elder Hua had a vague
1:53:43impression of him, remembering that he
1:53:45could grow top grade spirit rice. Yes,
1:53:47it's me. Su Chonqing nodded hurriedly.
1:53:50Old Hua smiled and said, "You probably
1:53:52came here because of those insects,
1:53:54right?" Such Choning was surprised. Yes.
1:53:57The spirit field is full of yellowish
1:53:59brown insects. Hao explained, "Those
1:54:02yellowish brown insects are called
1:54:03winter awakening insects. They only
1:54:06awaken in winter when the temperature
1:54:07reaches a certain level and then crawl
1:54:09out of the soil. Winter awakening
1:54:11insects. Su Chongqing looked slightly
1:54:14bewildered. Elder Huan nodded slightly.
1:54:17These insects only appear in spirit
1:54:19fields of grade 2 and above because they
1:54:21have been dormant in the black soil for
1:54:23a long time. I see. Such Chongqing
1:54:25realized, then asked, "How do we solve
1:54:27this? There are only two ways." Elder
1:54:30Hua paused for a moment, then continued.
1:54:33The first way is to find disciples with
1:54:35the golden spirit route and have them
1:54:36come to kill the insects. The second
1:54:39method is to have a disciple with a
1:54:40water elemental root perform the minor
1:54:42cloud rain technique. What if we just
1:54:44ignore it? Such Chongqing asked
1:54:46tentatively while Lao said with a hint
1:54:49of seriousness. Regardless, although
1:54:51your spiritual plants won't be
1:54:52completely eaten, the yield will drop by
1:54:55at least 2/3 and you won't be able to
1:54:57complete the quarterly task. Such
1:54:59Chonqing said helplessly. It seems we
1:55:02have no choice but to ask someone for
1:55:04help. Go over there and post the task.
1:55:06Then choose the specific reward. If
1:55:08someone accepts it, dealing with these
1:55:10little bugs will be quick. Elder Hua
1:55:12pointed to the other side of the palace.
1:55:14This time there were more people.
1:55:16Therefore, you can see many disciples
1:55:18who come here specifically to work
1:55:20part-time. Su Chongqing glanced at it
1:55:22and felt that the process was similar to
1:55:24that in his previous life. Each person
1:55:26has their own window and then they queue
1:55:28up. Having no other choice, Such
1:55:30Chongqing had to select a team with
1:55:32fewer people. After about 10 minutes, it
1:55:34was finally his turn. What do you want,
1:55:36fellow Daist? The female disciple
1:55:38opposite asked with a smile. Su
1:55:40Chongqing immediately said, "I want to
1:55:43issue a mission to kill the winter
1:55:45awakening insect." The female disciple
1:55:47asked, "And what about the reward?
1:55:49What's the minimum?" Su Chongqing didn't
1:55:51know much about this. Spirit stones or
1:55:54spirit rice? Spirit rice. First rank or
1:55:57second rank? First class. The minimum
1:56:00weight for a first grade product is 50
1:56:02caddies. Good. The pest control task was
1:56:05completed very quickly. Before long, the
1:56:07other party handed over a talisman and
1:56:09explained, "When someone accepts the
1:56:11insect killing task you posted, the
1:56:13talisman will light up. The closer the
1:56:15person is, the faster the talisman will
1:56:17flash." Understood. Such Chaning took
1:56:20the hand. By this point, he had very
1:56:22little spiritual rice left. Chapter 14.
1:56:25Sword pill eliminates pests. Lin Annie
1:56:27comes to seek. Chapter 14. Sword Pill
1:56:30Eliminates pests. Linen specially comes
1:56:32to see Su Chongqing originally planned
1:56:35to use the remaining spirit rice to brew
1:56:37spirit rice wine. Unexpectedly, the plan
1:56:40was ruined by these winter awakening
1:56:42bugs. I had already given Hubu 20
1:56:45caddies of spirit rice. Adding what I've
1:56:47consumed during this period, I only have
1:56:4960 lbs left. Now, they have to send out
1:56:5250 caddies in one go, even if it's just
1:56:54first grade spiritual rice. This is also
1:56:57a considerable loss for him. After all,
1:56:59the spirit rice still has at least
1:57:01another month before it can be
1:57:02harvested. Looking at the dense swarm of
1:57:04yellowish brown insects in front of me,
1:57:07Su Chongqing didn't even have the mind
1:57:09to cultivate. We just stared at each
1:57:11other helplessly. Just then, the
1:57:12talisman in my hand suddenly vibrated.
1:57:15Then, a faint light appeared. It lit up.
1:57:17Su Chongqing exclaimed in surprise. I
1:57:20went to the core management office this
1:57:21morning to post a task. Unexpectedly,
1:57:24someone took on the pest control task at
1:57:26noon. I don't know what kind of
1:57:27spiritual route it is. If it is a water
1:57:29spirit route, it can both kill insects
1:57:31and nourish the spirit rice. As
1:57:33afternoon approached, the talisman began
1:57:36to flash faster and faster. This means
1:57:38that the person who takes on the pest
1:57:40control task should be in the vicinity.
1:57:42Such Chanqing hurriedly went to the edge
1:57:44of the field and waited patiently.
1:57:46Before long, a thin man approached. The
1:57:49other person was holding a constantly
1:57:51flashing talisman. This is clearly the
1:57:53person who received the pest control
1:57:55assignment. Su Chongqing squinted and
1:57:57looked at the other person's chest. The
1:57:59imagined water ripple pattern did not
1:58:01appear. Instead, it was an upside down
1:58:03golden sword. This means that the person
1:58:05who came was not a disciple with the
1:58:07water elemental root, but a disciple
1:58:09with the metal elemental root. The metal
1:58:11element is associated with killing and
1:58:14warfare. Even in the early stages ofQi
1:58:16refining, he possessed considerable
1:58:18combat power. As soon as the man
1:58:20approached, Such Chongqing felt like he
1:58:22was being pricricked by thorns and was
1:58:24very uncomfortable. There's no way
1:58:26around it. The wood elemental root is
1:58:28countered by the metal and fire
1:58:30elemental roots and its instinct will
1:58:31produce a rejection reaction. Lu Xiao
1:58:34looked him up and down and asked, "Are
1:58:36you fellow Daoist Su who issued the pest
1:58:38control task?" Su Chaning nodded, "Yes."
1:58:42Lu Xiao waved the constantly flashing
1:58:44talisman in his hand and teased, "Your
1:58:46place is really remote. I like peace and
1:58:49quiet, Su Chongqing explained with a
1:58:51smile. Lu Xiao continued before you kill
1:58:54the insects. Let me take a look at the
1:58:56spirit rice. Why? Su Chongqing<unk>s
1:58:58smile faded and his expression became
1:59:01puzzled. Lu Xiao said with a rice smile.
1:59:04I've been owed money so many times, so
1:59:06I'm a bit helpless. I see. Su Chongqing
1:59:09suddenly realized. Without hesitation,
1:59:12he immediately took out the spirit rise
1:59:14from the small storage bag. After
1:59:16confirming that everything was correct,
1:59:18Lu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and a
1:59:20friendly smile appeared on his face. My
1:59:22name is Luh Xiao and I am a disciple
1:59:25with a golden spiritual route from
1:59:27weapon forging peak. Su Chongqing asked
1:59:30with slight surprise. The forging peak
1:59:32that forges spiritual weapons and
1:59:34magical artifacts. That's right, Luhao
1:59:37affirmed. Su Chongqing couldn't help but
1:59:40say, you guys quite busy. I'm just an
1:59:42apprentice, Lu Xiao said, shrugging his
1:59:45shoulders. Su Chaning blinked. Then can
1:59:48I buy a magical artifact from you? Since
1:59:50he started planting in the second grade
1:59:52spirit fields, he discovered that
1:59:54ordinary farming tools were no longer
1:59:55effective. If it weren't for the lack of
1:59:57spirit rice and spirit stones, I would
2:00:00have wanted to buy a set of spirit
2:00:01artifacts long ago. I'm not qualified to
2:00:03sell, but I can help you find someone to
2:00:05sell to. Lu Xiao waved his hand. Let's
2:00:08talk about it later. Upon hearing this,
2:00:10Su Chongqing decided not to waste any
2:00:12more time. Okay. Lu Xhiao didn't waste
2:00:15any more words. With a flick of his
2:00:17wrist, a white sphere flew out of his
2:00:19sleeve. The spiritual energy within his
2:00:22body was continuously poured into it.
2:00:24Immediately, Su Chongqing saw the sphere
2:00:26light up. It emitted a white halo. At
2:00:29the same time, a sharp and piercing aura
2:00:31permeated the air. Lu Xiao seized the
2:00:34opportunity and swung the weapon at the
2:00:36spirit field in front of him. With a
2:00:38whoosh, the white sphere flew over. It
2:00:40releases a faint trace of platinum
2:00:42energy through splashing. A plop sound
2:00:45kept coming from wherever it went. Su
2:00:47Chonqing was shocked to discover that
2:00:48the yellowish brown winter awakening
2:00:51insects were on the spirit rice. They
2:00:53were all chopped up. One after another,
2:00:55they died without even a chance to
2:00:57struggle. In no time, onethird of the
2:01:00area was cleared. The spirit rice,
2:01:02however, was completely unharmed without
2:01:04a single scratch. This shows that Lu
2:01:07Xhiao has a very strong sense of
2:01:08control. What is this thing? Such
2:01:11Chongqing stared wideeyed. Luh
2:01:13Xiao<unk>s voice rang out. This is
2:01:15called a sword pellet. Sword pellet? Su
2:01:17Chongqing asked, his eyes filled with
2:01:19inquiry. Lu Xiao immediately explained.
2:01:22We formal disciples who awaken the
2:01:24golden spirit route will all receive a
2:01:27Shint Thai sword pill which we must
2:01:29nurture with our own spiritual power
2:01:31every day. If I don't come out to earn
2:01:32extra money, I simply can't afford to
2:01:35nurture it. Such Chanqing immediately
2:01:37understood. It seems that different
2:01:39spiritual roots bring different
2:01:40troubles. Although wood spirit roots are
2:01:42not suitable for combat, at least they
2:01:45have decent resources. After comparing
2:01:47them like this, I immediately felt much
2:01:49better. Before they knew it, it was
2:01:51evening. Lu Xiao used up almost all his
2:01:54spiritual power to clean up the insects
2:01:56in the spirit field. Thank you, fellow
2:01:58Daist Luo. Such Chanqin quickly cuped
2:02:00his hands and thanks. Lu Xhiao handed
2:02:03over a talisman and said, "Don't be shy.
2:02:05If you need help next time, just use
2:02:07this communication talisman to contact
2:02:09me." "Okay," Su Chaning took it. I'm
2:02:12leaving. Lu Xiao put 50 caddies of first
2:02:15grade spirit rice into his small storage
2:02:17bag, then turned and left. Such Chonqing
2:02:20watched the other person walk further
2:02:22and further away. Then he turned his
2:02:24attention back to his own second grade
2:02:26spirit field. Actually, dealing with
2:02:28these insects is not difficult at all.
2:02:30If you have a metal or water spiritual
2:02:32root, you don't even need to ask
2:02:34outsiders for help. It wouldn't consume
2:02:36that much spirit rice. At this moment,
2:02:38he became even more eager for the other
2:02:40spiritual roots. Fellow Daist Su.
2:02:43Suddenly, a voice called out from afar.
2:02:46Fellow Daist Lu Su Chongqing thought it
2:02:49was Lu Xiao who had returned, but it
2:02:51turned out not to be. He's someone I
2:02:53know. Who? Linen. Those who become
2:02:55formal disciples at the same time as
2:02:57you. The other person came running up
2:02:59panting, their face covered in sweat.
2:03:02Linen complained. Fellow Daist Su, I've
2:03:04been looking for you for ages. Su
2:03:06Chongqing looked at the other person
2:03:08with a surprised expression. Do you need
2:03:10something? Linen was about to explain
2:03:12when he was drawn to the spiritual rice
2:03:14in front of him. The entire grade 2
2:03:16spirit field was covered with crops,
2:03:18presenting a prosperous scene. These
2:03:20rice plants are very robust with each
2:03:23ear of rice full of plump grains. It's
2:03:25obvious at a glance that the quality is
2:03:27high and the production volume is also
2:03:29high. Such Chongqing spoke up reminding
2:03:32him, "What do you want from me?" "Yes."
2:03:34Linen then came to his senses and said,
2:03:37"Tomorrow, a foundation establishment
2:03:39stage senior brother needs help
2:03:41harvesting spiritual plants. I've
2:03:43already notified Xiao Xiao. Do you want
2:03:45to come along harvesting?" Su
2:03:47Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up upon hearing
2:03:49this. The spiritual plans cultivated by
2:03:51foundation establishment disciples are
2:03:53absolutely extraordinary. It might bring
2:03:56you unexpected benefits. Linen
2:03:58continued, "I won't<unk>t help for
2:03:59nothing. I'll be rewarded with 10
2:04:01caddies of second grade spirit rice
2:04:03afterward." Su Chongqing couldn't help
2:04:05but press. How many days? Linen pondered
2:04:08for a moment. One moo of second grade
2:04:10spirit land per person should be
2:04:12achievable in a day, right? I'll take
2:04:14it. Su Chongqing agreed with a smile.
2:04:17It's not because of the reward of 10
2:04:19caddies of second grade spirit rice, but
2:04:21because I can't let you down since
2:04:23you've come all this way to find me.
2:04:25Huh? Linen was immediately in a good
2:04:27mood and couldn't help but laugh out
2:04:29loud. Don't leave either. Let's<unk> go
2:04:31together tomorrow. Seeing that it was
2:04:33getting late, Su Chongqing pulled the
2:04:35other person towards his wooden house.
2:04:37This friend was worth making. Linen felt
2:04:39a little touched. Chapter 15. Going out
2:04:42to help with the harvest greatly
2:04:43increases lifespan. Chapter 15. Going
2:04:46out to help with the harvest greatly
2:04:48increases lifespan. Time quickly came to
2:04:50the next day. Early in the morning, just
2:04:52as the sun was rising, Su Chonqing and
2:04:55Lynn left quickly without even eating.
2:04:57The location of that foundation
2:04:59establishment stage spirit farmer
2:05:01happened to be near Lynn and spirit
2:05:03field. That's why he was able to get the
2:05:04information immediately and then spread
2:05:06the word. Lynn and said, "Seriously, let
2:05:09me tell you theqi refining stage and the
2:05:11foundation establishment stage are
2:05:13really different. Why? Such Chaning
2:05:16asked, looking at the other person, Lynn
2:05:18encountered. Do you know how many acres
2:05:20of spirit fields a foundation
2:05:21establishment stage spirit farmer has?
2:05:24How would I know? Su Chongqing shook his
2:05:26head. A full 10 acres of grade two
2:05:28spiritual fields, Linen said, raising
2:05:31his hands. Huh? Su Chongqing was very
2:05:34surprised. Linen was satisfied with his
2:05:36reaction and continued. I later found
2:05:38out that after reaching the foundation
2:05:40establishment stage, you can obtain an
2:05:42additional acre of grade 2 spirit land
2:05:44for each advancement in realm. But even
2:05:47if it reaches perfection, it's only 5
2:05:49acres. Su Chonqing raised an eyebrow.
2:05:52You Xiaoing and I should all know how we
2:05:54got the remaining 5 acres of grade 2
2:05:57spirit fields. Linen said meaningfully.
2:05:59I understand. Su Chongqing understood
2:06:02instantly. It seems this is a spirit
2:06:04farmer in the foundation establishment
2:06:06stage. Like Jeang Air, he must have
2:06:08served as an assessment mentor in the
2:06:10outer areas. These extra 5 acres of
2:06:12grade two spirit fields were all
2:06:14acquired at that time. Lenon instructed,
2:06:16"This foundation establishment stage
2:06:18senior brother is named Jang Su. He has
2:06:21a decent reputation. As long as we don't
2:06:23damage the spiritual plants, we
2:06:25shouldn't provoke him." Su Chongqing
2:06:27waved his hand and said, "Don't worry."
2:06:29Before looking for Jeang Su, the two met
2:06:31with Xiaoza. Although Su Chongqing
2:06:34hadn't seen the other party for several
2:06:35months, they didn't have much to talk
2:06:37about. However, he discovered that the
2:06:39man's spirit rise was not doing well. It
2:06:42seems that the output will not be very
2:06:43high. At best, we barely meet the
2:06:46quarterly targets. Before long, the
2:06:48three arrived near Jang Su spirit field.
2:06:51Su Chonqing glanced around and found
2:06:53that the area was surrounded by fences.
2:06:55The area is surrounded by 10 acres of
2:06:58spiritual fields and the air is rich in
2:07:00wood-based spiritual energy. However,
2:07:03what surprised Su Chongqing the most was
2:07:05different spiritual fields produced
2:07:07different spiritual plants. Some of them
2:07:09look like eggplants. Some of them are
2:07:11covered with frost. There wasn't even a
2:07:13single stock of sacred rice. With the
2:07:15addition of these three, the group of 10
2:07:17is complete. They were all chi refining
2:07:20stage cultivators who had just been
2:07:21officially promoted less than a year
2:07:23ago. Remember, whatever you do, don't
2:07:26damage the spiritual plants. Every
2:07:28single one of these plants is more
2:07:30important than your lives. Anyone whose
2:07:32hands are unsteady should leave now.
2:07:34Jang Su did not resemble an ordinary
2:07:37spiritual farmer. She appeared extremely
2:07:39arrogant and wealthy. While speaking,
2:07:41his gaze never lingered on Su Chongqing
2:07:44and the others. I basically just glance
2:07:46at them and make a quick impression of
2:07:47their faces. Yes, senior brother. Alton
2:07:50nodded. Go to spirit field number one.
2:07:53It's on the far left. Zang Su began to
2:07:55assign tasks. Su Chongqing, Linen, and
2:07:58Ziao Xiaoa were arranged to be together.
2:08:01It is the three moo of second grade
2:08:02spiritual land on the far right. The
2:08:05spiritual plants that Su Chongqing was
2:08:07about to harvest looked very strange. It
2:08:09resembles a tangled thicket of thorns
2:08:11appearing strangely shaped. The
2:08:13harvesting method involves digging up
2:08:15the soil and starting from the exposed
2:08:17roots. Look, two Dowist couples. Linen
2:08:20glanced back and immediately showed an
2:08:22envious look. Such Chongqing and Xiao
2:08:24Xiao looked over upon hearing this. Two
2:08:27incredibly beautiful female disciples
2:08:29were standing next to Jeang Su. Curvy
2:08:31figure with prominent breasts and
2:08:33buttocks. Her appearance is also quite
2:08:35refined. Judging from the embroidered
2:08:37patterns on their chests, they are all
2:08:39water spirit roots. It seems that Jang
2:08:42Su is also attempting to generate new
2:08:44spiritual roots through this method.
2:08:46Ziao Xiao shook his head and said,
2:08:48"Don't look. He's only at the foundation
2:08:50establishment stage. What do you know? I
2:08:52want to become a spiritual farmer like
2:08:54that in the future. Linen was full of
2:08:56longing. Su Chongqing couldn't help but
2:08:58complain. You should plant the spirit
2:09:00plants first. Linen was immediately
2:09:02extremely embarrassed. Su Chongqing and
2:09:05Ziao Xiao are at least involved in
2:09:07planting. Even the most ordinary spirit
2:09:09rice, and he's still wandering around
2:09:11aimlessly. They didn't even dare to
2:09:13plant them easily for fear of making a
2:09:15mistake. Soon the three arrived at their
2:09:18respective spirit fields to harvest.
2:09:20Because it was covered in sharp thorns,
2:09:22Su Chongqing did not approach it rashly.
2:09:24Holding a magical scythe, he wandered
2:09:27around searching for a place to descend.
2:09:29In contrast, linen and Xiao Xio were
2:09:32much more relaxed. One of them is a
2:09:34spiritual plant shaped like an eggplant.
2:09:37The other one is covered with tiny red
2:09:38flowers. See, just 10 catties of second
2:09:41grade spirit rice is enough to get a
2:09:43group of people to help me. I don't need
2:09:45to go down and do anything myself.
2:09:47Getting covered in mud. Jang Su looked
2:09:49at the busy chi refining stage spirit
2:09:51farmers, his face radiating a clear
2:09:54sense of superiority. Others toil away
2:09:56for 10 caddies of secondgrade spirit
2:09:58rice. On the other hand, all he had to
2:10:01do was deliver these medicinal herbs to
2:10:03the alchemy pavilion. You can earn tens
2:10:05of thousands of low-grade spirit stones.
2:10:07You're amazing. The water elemental
2:10:09dowist partner on the left had stars in
2:10:11her eyes. The water elemental dowist
2:10:13partner on the right has only been with
2:10:15the group for a short time and is not
2:10:17yet fully adapted, but she could tell
2:10:19this man may seem to be showing off, but
2:10:22he is actually enjoying the admiration
2:10:23of women. Finally, Such Chongqing found
2:10:26a suitable entry point. A thought struck
2:10:28him and he used the evergreen technique
2:10:30to sense the spiritual plants around
2:10:32him. Mature, no damage, abundant
2:10:35spiritual energy. Today's highlights,
2:10:38tomorrow's best. In other words, the
2:10:40actual harvest time is tomorrow. This is
2:10:43equivalent to moving it forward by one
2:10:45day. Although they are ripe, harvesting
2:10:47them is not a problem. However, in terms
2:10:49of quality and output, it is obviously
2:10:51lacking. Such Chanqing had no intention
2:10:54of reminding him since it wasn't his own
2:10:56spiritual plant anyway. The reason I did
2:10:58this was purely out of curiosity. He
2:11:00then began digging through the slightly
2:11:02hardened black soil to harvest the
2:11:03roots. Harvesting one premium black
2:11:06thorn will increase its lifespan by 5
2:11:08days. Harvesting one premium blackthorn
2:11:11will increase its lifespan by 5 days.
2:11:14Harvesting one premium black thorn will
2:11:16increase its lifespan by 5 days. They
2:11:19were busy from daytime until nearly
2:11:21evening. During that time, I almost
2:11:24never stopped drinking water, let alone
2:11:25eating. Fortunately, his strength had
2:11:28reached the mid-stage ofQi refining, and
2:11:30he had ample spiritual energy to support
2:11:32him. Jeang Su looked at the completely
2:11:34harvested black thorns and showed a
2:11:36satisfied expression. She asked, "Very
2:11:38good. What's your name?" Su Chongqing
2:11:41replied, replying to senior brother, "My
2:11:43name is Su Chongqing." Jeang Su then
2:11:45asked, "How long have you been in the
2:11:46core area?" Before Su Chongqing could
2:11:49answer, Linen, who was standing next to
2:11:51him, spoke first. "We've all been here
2:11:53for less than half a year." Jang Su
2:11:56glanced at Linen, startling the latter
2:11:58into quickly lowering his head. Only
2:12:00then did he turn his gaze back to Su
2:12:02Chongqing and say with a smile, "To
2:12:04harvest so completely on the first try,
2:12:07especially the most troublesome black
2:12:08thorns, shows you have a very good
2:12:10foundation." "Thank you for the
2:12:12compliment, senior brother." Su
2:12:14Chongqing cupped his hands in greeting.
2:12:16Since you are so outstanding, I will
2:12:18give you an extra 10 caddies of grade
2:12:20two spirit rice. Jang Su waved his hand.
2:12:23Those around him immediately looked on
2:12:25with envy. Ziao Xiao was even a little
2:12:27jealous. Thank you, senior brother. Su
2:12:30Chongqing cupped his hands and thanks
2:12:32again. Jang Su gently patted Su
2:12:34Chongqing on the shoulder and said with
2:12:36a smile. I'll remember you. Just come
2:12:38next time you're harvesting. You don't
2:12:40need to register. Okay. Su Chongqing
2:12:43nodded vigorously. You can go back now,
2:12:45Jang. Su said, then turned and left. Lyn
2:12:48and said enviously to be appreciated by
2:12:50senior brotherhang. You're really going
2:12:52to make it big. Su Chongqing smiled upon
2:12:55hearing this, then took out five catties
2:12:57of second grade spirit rice and handed
2:12:59it over. Thanks to you this time, I have
2:13:02nothing else but spirit rice to express
2:13:04my gratitude. What are you doing? You're
2:13:06too kind, Lynn quickly waved his hand.
2:13:09Just accept it, Su Chongqing insisted.
2:13:11Ziao Xio chimed in. At least we're
2:13:13planting spirit rice. You've been
2:13:15walking around like this. You must be
2:13:17running out of spirit rice. Well, all
2:13:19right. Linen had no choice but to
2:13:21reluctantly accept it. He had to admit
2:13:23that Xiao Xiaoa<unk>s assessment was
2:13:25very accurate. For some time now, I've
2:13:27been circling around the core area. I
2:13:29met many people, but I also gave away a
2:13:31lot of spiritual rice. He was already
2:13:34broke, which is why he came here to help
2:13:35Jeang Su harvest spiritual plants. Su
2:13:38Chongqing also noticed this and he was
2:13:40genuinely grateful to the other party.
2:13:42That's why I specially took out five
2:13:44catties of second grade spiritual rice.
2:13:46After putting away the spirit rice,
2:13:48Linen asked, "Are you going back
2:13:50tonight?" Going back is exhausting. I
2:13:52probably won't be able to get up
2:13:54tomorrow, Su Chongqing said, rubbing his
2:13:56shoulders. All right, then. I won't let
2:13:58you stay overnight. Linen smiled
2:14:00knowingly. And so the three parted ways.
2:14:03Su Chongqing walked for about half an
2:14:05hour before returning to his wooden
2:14:07house. But the first thing I did when I
2:14:09got home was not to eat nor to rest.
2:14:11Instead, they immediately checked the
2:14:13property's panel. Such Chonqing, male,
2:14:1618 years old. Remaining lifespan 29,672
2:14:21days. Wood spirit root mid-stageq chi
2:14:24refining evergreen technique level 5
2:14:27lingi wine proficient wood spirit
2:14:29entanglement level two this time by
2:14:32helping Jeang Su harvest the black
2:14:34thorns I gained a full 80 years of
2:14:36lifespan. Chapter 16 lifespan reaches a
2:14:39100red years yields a bumper harvest.
2:14:42Chapter 16 lifespan reaches a century.
2:14:45Bumper harvest. Consume 4567
2:14:48days of lifespan to upgrade the wood
2:14:51spirit entanglement technique from level
2:14:53two to level three. Yes, in an instant,
2:14:56a vast amount of experience and skills
2:14:59emerged. Su Chongqing seemed to have
2:15:01cultivated for many years, absorbing the
2:15:03essence rapidly. Successfully consumed
2:15:0645,567
2:15:08days of lifespan to upgrade the wood
2:15:10spirit entanglement technique to level
2:15:12three. Remaining lifespan 25,15
2:15:16days with spirit entanglement third
2:15:19layer. Effect one, evolve into a
2:15:21100-year-old black iron vine. Effect
2:15:24two, penetrating force of 100 gene per
2:15:27strand. Effect three, wood spirit seal
2:15:30can store seeds. Effect four, can switch
2:15:32between three forms, green vine,
2:15:35poisonous stinger, and black iron vine.
2:15:37Effect five. After switching, the
2:15:39original power, attributes, and other
2:15:41effects will be restored. Only three
2:15:43floors. Su Choning asked in surprise.
2:15:46Even the lowest level of the I evergreen
2:15:48technique has five levels. As a result,
2:15:51the wood spirit entanglement technique
2:15:53only reached level three. But then I
2:15:55thought about it again and realized that
2:15:57this was only a highle spell for theqi
2:16:00refining stage. Moreover, it takes
2:16:02longer than low-level spells. Such
2:16:04Chongqing quickly went outside the
2:16:06wooden house and found the popppler tree
2:16:08he had tested earlier. He opened his
2:16:10right hand and the u spirit seal
2:16:12appeared in his palm. Then they
2:16:14discovered that it had actually
2:16:15transformed from a phantom into a real
2:16:17image. At this moment, it looks like a
2:16:20blue tattoo embedded in the palm of your
2:16:22hand. Su Chongqing poured a wisp of
2:16:24spiritual energy into the area,
2:16:26instantly creating a domain with a
2:16:28perception range of Ten Jang. The weeds
2:16:31within the area instantly became active
2:16:33and began to sway constantly. They
2:16:35looked like a pack of puppies wagging
2:16:37their tails and desperately trying to
2:16:39please their owner. Su Chongqing<unk>s
2:16:41heart stirred and a nearby weed whooshed
2:16:44and actually evolved into a black iron
2:16:46vine with a surface that looked like
2:16:48metal. Then the meterlong black iron
2:16:50vine immediately jabbed towards the
2:16:52battered popppler tree in front of it.
2:16:54With a soft, it pierced through the
2:16:56entire torso in an instant. There was no
2:16:59obstruction at all. As smooth as a
2:17:01cleaver cutting tofu. H. Such Chanin
2:17:04gasped. The power of this attack is
2:17:06terrifying. I feel that I simply cannot
2:17:08withstand an opponent of the same level.
2:17:10Moreover, I'm not just controlling one.
2:17:13Although after thee would spirit
2:17:14entanglement technique, reaches the
2:17:16third level. A wisp of spiritual power
2:17:18can only generate five black iron vines.
2:17:22The number is half that of other
2:17:23species, but it should not be
2:17:25underestimated. Then Su Chongqing tried
2:17:28several more times and discovered that
2:17:29the black iron vine was as hard as
2:17:31metal, not just the tree trunk. Even
2:17:34harder stones, as long as they are not
2:17:36too thick, can be penetrated. When all
2:17:38five of them rushed at once, they were
2:17:40instantly reduced to dust. After testing
2:17:42the power of the black iron vine, he
2:17:44tried switching forms. Soon, the hard
2:17:47black iron vines began to change. It
2:17:49transforms into a poisonous plant
2:17:51covered in sharp thorns at a speed
2:17:53visible to the naked eye. Then it
2:17:55returned to its original form, a soft
2:17:57yet resilient green vine. However, Su
2:18:00Chongqing discovered that each switch
2:18:02consumed a portion of his spiritual
2:18:04energy. Switching from layer three to
2:18:06layer 2 and then to layer 1 doesn't
2:18:08consume much energy. Switching between
2:18:10the first and second layers and then the
2:18:12third almost consumes a wisp of
2:18:14spiritual energy. Next, Su Chonqing
2:18:17turned his attention to the spirit rice
2:18:19wine. Lingi wine proficient effect one
2:18:22increases spiritual energy absorption
2:18:25speed by 15% within 1 hour effect two
2:18:28spiritual energy consumption during the
2:18:30execution of wood type spells minus 10%.
2:18:34Effect three increases the learning
2:18:36speed of low-level spells by 10% while
2:18:38slightly tipsy. Negative effect one
2:18:41long-term consumption may slow down
2:18:43reaction speed. Should I consume 2,378
2:18:47days of my lifespan to upgrade Lingi
2:18:49alcohol master to expert level? Yes. In
2:18:53a short time, deeper experiences and
2:18:55techniques regarding Lingi wine emerged.
2:18:57Su Chongqing seemed like an expert who
2:18:59had been brewing wine for many years,
2:19:01and he had an exceptional understanding
2:19:03of it. Successfully consumed 2,378
2:19:07days of lifespan to upgrade spirit rice
2:19:09wine to expert level. Remaining lifespan
2:19:1222,727
2:19:14days. Lingme wine expert. Effect one
2:19:18increases spiritual energy absorption
2:19:20speed by 20% within 1 hour. Effect two,
2:19:24spiritual energy consumption during the
2:19:26execution of wood type spells minus 15%.
2:19:29Effect three, increases the learning
2:19:31speed of low-level spells by 15% while
2:19:34slightly tipsy. Effect four, increases
2:19:37the learning speed of higher level
2:19:38spells by 5% while slightly tipsy.
2:19:41Negative effect one, long-term
2:19:43consumption will continuously reduce
2:19:45reaction speed. Negative effect two,
2:19:48long-term consumption may damage
2:19:50internal organs. P.S. Those at theqi
2:19:52refining stage or above are immune to
2:19:54negative effects. Besides me, I don't
2:19:57think anyone else could get this quality
2:19:59of spirit rice wine, right? Suching
2:20:01smiled. He glanced at the attribute
2:20:03panel again. Would you like to consume
2:20:055,033 days of your lifespan to upgrade
2:20:09spirit rice wine to master level? After
2:20:11thinking it over and over, I finally
2:20:13shook my head. Reaching expert level is
2:20:16sufficient at present. Spirit rice wine
2:20:18is just one of the most common spirit
2:20:20wines in the cultivation world. Even if
2:20:22it can increase the speed of learning
2:20:24higher level spells. However, Such
2:20:26Chonqing did not possess a second highle
2:20:29spell. More importantly, since Lingi
2:20:31wine has this effect, then we could look
2:20:33for higher quality and rarer spirit wine
2:20:35recipes. When the time comes, wouldn't
2:20:37it be better to sell the spirit rice
2:20:39wine and drink it ourselves? However,
2:20:42Lin's appearance this time has given me
2:20:44some ideas. When I have free time, I can
2:20:46help others harvest crops. Not only will
2:20:48I get paid, but I can also increase my
2:20:50lifespan. Su Chongqing<unk>s lips curled
2:20:53up slightly. Time passed day by day. The
2:20:55temperature is getting lower and lower,
2:20:57and the weather is getting colder and
2:20:59colder. In the blink of an eye, it has
2:21:01been 3 months since I became a formal
2:21:03disciple. During this time, Su Chongqing
2:21:06used the remaining first grade spirit
2:21:07rice to brew some spirit rice wine. Not
2:21:10much, only £10. Firstly, I wanted to try
2:21:13it myself. Secondly, I plan to exchange
2:21:16some spirit stones at the market. There
2:21:18are less than 5 days left until the
2:21:19Chinese New Year. This also means that
2:21:21you will soon be able to participate in
2:21:23the Red Maple Valley Market. Standing on
2:21:26the edge of the field, looking at the
2:21:27somewhat frozen spirit rice, Su
2:21:29Chongqing began to sense it. Mature
2:21:32abundant spiritual energy, no loss.
2:21:35Second grade spirit rice. Today's best
2:21:38production 2,100 gene. It's time to
2:21:41harvest. Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up
2:21:43and he decisively picked up a sickle.
2:21:45Harvesting one supreme spirit rice plant
2:21:48increases lifespan by 6 days. Harvesting
2:21:51one supreme spirit rice plant increases
2:21:53lifespan by 6 days. Harvesting one
2:21:56supreme spirit rice plant increases
2:21:58lifespan by 6 days. Such changing worked
2:22:01from day to night. Looking at the
2:22:03abundance of spirit rice in front of
2:22:05him, he felt extremely happy. Moreover,
2:22:08the previous experiments using spirit
2:22:10beast excrement have already yielded
2:22:12results. compared to areas that were not
2:22:14fertilized. The same amount of spiritual
2:22:16rice, the same range. There has indeed
2:22:19been an increase. That's why the initial
2:22:21estimate was over 2,000 gene, 1,000 kg.
2:22:24When it was time to actually harvest, it
2:22:26weighed 2,100 gene, 1,000 kg. Others who
2:22:30plan in winter are lucky if their yield
2:22:32doesn't decrease. This was his first
2:22:34time planting in winter, and the yield
2:22:36not only did not decrease, but actually
2:22:39increased. After putting all the spirit
2:22:41rice into the small storage bag, Su
2:22:43Chonqing looked at the attribute panel
2:22:45again. Su Chonqing, male, 18 years old.
2:22:49Remaining lifespan 36,544
2:22:52days. Wood spirit root mid-stage chi
2:22:55refining evergreen technique level 5.
2:22:58Lingi wine expert wood spirit
2:23:01entanglement third layer. This harvest
2:23:03added another 6,872
2:23:06days to the lifespan, making it a total
2:23:09of 100 years. Chapter 17, Auspicious
2:23:12Snow for a bountiful year. Lingong
2:23:14controls prices. Chapter 17. Auspicious
2:23:17snow for a bountiful year. Lingong
2:23:19controls prices. Such Chongqing was not
2:23:21in a hurry to submit the task. He needs
2:23:24to put himself on the same level as
2:23:25others. By the time there were only 2
2:23:27days left until the Lunar New Year,
2:23:29everyone had almost finished harvesting.
2:23:31Only then did I arrive at the link core
2:23:34management office where I met Elder Hua
2:23:36once again. Similar to the last time I
2:23:38came, there were many people, so some
2:23:40disciples worked part-time. "Master
2:23:42Hua," Su Chonqing said respectfully.
2:23:44"After all, the other party was a
2:23:46manager." "It's you," Old Hua hadn't
2:23:49forgotten. He still had some
2:23:50recollection of it. Su Chonqing nodded
2:23:53slightly. I'll complete the winter
2:23:54mission and submit the spirit rice. Upon
2:23:57hearing this, Elder Hua looked you up
2:23:59and down and said, "If I remember
2:24:00correctly, this is your first time
2:24:02planting in winter. Could it be that
2:24:04you've already achieved your target
2:24:05yield?" "Barely done." Su Chongqing
2:24:08forced a bitter smile. Hao was slightly
2:24:10surprised. "It's good that you can
2:24:12complete it. The people in your batch
2:24:14didn't even meet the production target
2:24:16of 1,000 gene." Xiao Xio, "The name
2:24:19popped into Su Chan<unk>s mind." "Yes."
2:24:21Old Huan nodded slightly. Such Chongqing
2:24:24was somewhat surprised by this, but he
2:24:25didn't take it to heart. The two had
2:24:27only a SOS relationship to begin with.
2:24:30If it weren't for Lynn and getting
2:24:31involved, "I'm afraid we<unk>ll never
2:24:33see each other again." Subsequently, Su
2:24:35Chongqing submitted 1,000 gene of second
2:24:38grade spiritual rice for the winter.
2:24:40"Top grade spiritual rice," Old Man Hua
2:24:43exclaimed in surprise. "These days, very
2:24:45few newcomers can grow top quality
2:24:47spiritual rice. I never expected that
2:24:49this person could actually do it." Such
2:24:51Chan thought to himself, "It seems that
2:24:54not everyone can grow top grade spirit
2:24:55rice, but this is the only spirit rice I
2:24:58have." Then they discovered that the
2:25:00points earned from exchanging premium
2:25:02spiritual rice were different. If the
2:25:04rice is of high quality and produced
2:25:06from a second grade spirit field, you
2:25:07can earn 200 points for every 1,000
2:25:10caddies. The top grade spirit rise
2:25:12produced in a second grade spirit field
2:25:14also weighing 1,000 caddies can be
2:25:17exchanged for 250 points which is 50
2:25:19more points and praise from Elder Hua.
2:25:22Before leaving, Su Chonqing made a point
2:25:24of asking. I learned that to exchange
2:25:26for another highle cultivation
2:25:27technique, I would need 2,000 points.
2:25:30That is to say, either submit 10,000
2:25:32caddies of grade two spiritual rice in
2:25:35one go. Either accumulate little by
2:25:37little and you'll be able to redeem it
2:25:39sooner or later. It seems we can only
2:25:41wait a little longer, Such Chanqing
2:25:43pondered. He then left the Lingian core
2:25:45management office. Unexpectedly, they
2:25:48had just arrived at the entrance to the
2:25:49mountain road outside the palace. I ran
2:25:51into a familiar face. Who? Ziao Xiao.
2:25:55The other person looked worried and was
2:25:56clearly in a bad mood. However, Ziao
2:25:59Xiao<unk>s eyes lit up when he saw Su
2:26:01Chongqing and he quickly stopped him.
2:26:03Fellow Daois Su, what is it? Su
2:26:06Chongqing stared at the other party
2:26:07wearily. Ziao Xiao couldn't help but
2:26:09ask, "Have you completed the winter
2:26:11mission?" Su Chongqing thought it over
2:26:14and over again, but in the end, he did
2:26:16not lie. Since Elder Hua casually
2:26:18revealed Xiao Xiao<unk>s situation, that
2:26:21means the news of completing the winter
2:26:23mission couldn't be kept secret. If
2:26:25that's the case, concealing it from Ziao
2:26:27Xiao now might provoke his displeasure.
2:26:29Therefore, it's better to be open about
2:26:31it and see what this guy is up to first.
2:26:33A hint of displeasure flashed in Xiao
2:26:35Xiao<unk>s eyes upon seeing this, but he
2:26:37quickly concealed it and then asked,
2:26:39"Could you lend me a hundred caddies of
2:26:41grade two spirit rice?" As expected, Su
2:26:45Chongqing knew something was wrong with
2:26:46this guy and then said with a troubled
2:26:48look, "I barely managed to complete the
2:26:50winter mission, and I don't even have
2:26:52enough left for myself." Xiaoza pressed
2:26:55further, "How much is left?" "50 gene."
2:26:57Su Chanqing shrugged. "That's a bit too
2:27:00little," Zhia Xiao frowned. Admittedly,
2:27:02there is a possibility that the other
2:27:04party is concealing information.
2:27:06However, they failed to complete their
2:27:08winter tasks due to a lack of
2:27:09production. Therefore, the possibility
2:27:12of concealment is unlikely. Maybe we'll
2:27:14just get lucky this time. I can only
2:27:16lend you 10 gene. That's all. Su
2:27:18Chonqing said with a pained expression.
2:27:2110 caddies is fine, too. Xiaoza did not
2:27:23refuse. Su Chonqing immediately took out
2:27:2610 caddies of grade two spirit rice from
2:27:28his small storage bag. I'll definitely
2:27:30pay you back next year. Ziao Xiao
2:27:32promised after receiving the money.
2:27:34Okay. Such Choning chuckled. Afterwards,
2:27:37Ziao Xiao continued walking towards the
2:27:39mountaintop platform. Su Choning turned
2:27:42his head to look at the other person's
2:27:43hurried back, his eyes instantly turning
2:27:46cold. This person is not someone you
2:27:48should get too close to. The two parties
2:27:50already had a mediocre relationship, yet
2:27:52the other party took the initiative to
2:27:54borrow things. In contrast, Linen,
2:27:56although they were somewhat resistant
2:27:58when they were on the periphery, but
2:27:59after becoming a formal disciple, he
2:28:02never asked to borrow anything from him.
2:28:04Even when Jeang Su was offered spirit
2:28:06rice, she reluctantly accepted it. It's
2:28:08snowing. Thank goodness the harvest was
2:28:11timely. A timely snow promises a bumper
2:28:13harvest. Next year will be even better.
2:28:16Suddenly, heavy snow began to fall from
2:28:18the gray sky. An extreme chill swept
2:28:21across the entire spirit field. Such
2:28:23Chanqing had nothing better to do, so he
2:28:25stopped and watched the snow scene for a
2:28:27while. He discovered that not all areas
2:28:29were covered in snow. Many sacred fields
2:28:32remain unchanged from autumn, completely
2:28:34unaffected. In some places, even steam
2:28:37was rising from the ground. The
2:28:38snowflakes melted before they even fell.
2:28:41Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
2:28:43The moment Su Chongqing opened the door,
2:28:45a gust of cold wind mixed with
2:28:47snowflakes rushed in. Fortunately, he
2:28:50was a cultivator, so he wasn't afraid of
2:28:52the cold. Outside, the spiritual fields
2:28:55were covered in ice and snow. The vast
2:28:57world suddenly entered a state of
2:28:59lockdown. Crunch, crunch. Su Chonqing
2:29:02stumbled away from home, walking in the
2:29:04opposite direction. When we get close to
2:29:06the Linkon core management office, I
2:29:08noticed that there were more and more
2:29:10people in the vicinity. Everyone walked
2:29:12in the same direction without prior
2:29:14arrangement. The flying paper crane can
2:29:16withstand a weight of 300 gene and
2:29:18arrive at the market in half an hour.
2:29:20Renting for one day costs five low-grade
2:29:22spirit stones, while purchasing requires
2:29:2550 lowgrade spirit stones. The spirit
2:29:27beast only needs an incense sticks worth
2:29:30of time to travel to and from the
2:29:31market, and you can earn 10 low-grade
2:29:33spirit stones a day. Such Chongqing came
2:29:36to a fork in the road. Surprising
2:29:38discovery. There were quite a few
2:29:39disciples from the Imperial Water
2:29:41Pavilion and the Spirit Beast Valley
2:29:43standing by the roadside. They're all
2:29:45selling and renting all sorts of things
2:29:47that can move quickly. But it is clear
2:29:49that compared to spirit beasts, people
2:29:51prefer flying paper cranes because the
2:29:53price is cheaper. Five low-grade spirit
2:29:55stones are equivalent to 10 caddies of
2:29:58second grade spirit rice. At this
2:30:00moment, a disciple with the wood spirit
2:30:02route who had rented a flying paper
2:30:03crane shouted to the surroundings, "We
2:30:05can take two more people to Red Maple
2:30:07Valley. Just give us one low-grade
2:30:09spirit stone or two caddies of second
2:30:11grade spirit rice. I'll do it. Such
2:30:14Chongqing quickly took out the rice. It
2:30:16didn't take long for the three of them
2:30:17to gather. Then the flying paper crane
2:30:20began to flap its wings vigorously.
2:30:22However, it did not take off. No, to be
2:30:25precise, it can't fly very high. I don't
2:30:27know if it's because three people are
2:30:29too heavy or if it was designed that
2:30:31way. The flying paper crane was only
2:30:33about 5 m above the ground. The person
2:30:35renting out the paper cranes asked with
2:30:37a smile. Fellow Dowists, how was your
2:30:40harvest this year? Su Chonqing shrugged.
2:30:42Not bad. The other person, a female
2:30:45disciple who had awakened her with
2:30:47elemental root, said calmly, "Stronger
2:30:49than last winter." The person who rented
2:30:52the paper crane, introduced himself, "My
2:30:54name is Su Ming, and I have been a
2:30:56formal disciple for 5 years." Su
2:30:58Chongqing thought for a moment and said,
2:31:00"Kai, two and a half years." The female
2:31:04disciple concluded, "Lin Mingru, two
2:31:06years." Su Mingshing said with a playful
2:31:09tone, "Fellow Dowists, this year's Red
2:31:11Maple Valley Market will be very
2:31:13lively." Su Chongqing asked in
2:31:15confusion, "Why?" Su Ming explained,
2:31:18"Because there are still two years until
2:31:20the formal disciple competition begins.
2:31:23All the formal disciples have started
2:31:24preparing resources. It has nothing to
2:31:27do with us," Lin Mingru said, pursing
2:31:29her lips. Disciples with the wood spirit
2:31:32route are not suited for combat. Even if
2:31:34they participate in the formal disciple
2:31:36competition, their ranking will not be
2:31:38high. No matter how powerful you are,
2:31:40you'll still be helpless against those
2:31:42with metal or fire spiritual roots. Su
2:31:44Ming waved his hand and said, "Fellow
2:31:47Daist Lynn, you are mistaken about
2:31:49that." "Oh," Lin Manu raised an eyebrow,
2:31:52slightly unconvinced. Su Ming said
2:31:55earnestly. We can take this opportunity
2:31:57to sell our spirit rice and spirit
2:31:59plants at a higher price. That makes
2:32:01sense. Su Chonqing wholeheartedly
2:32:03agreed. Therefore, I would like to
2:32:05discuss with you in advance the market
2:32:08price. Suing got to the point. Su
2:32:10Chongqing has always believed that every
2:32:12Lingome is a free spirit. Therefore,
2:32:15there is no need to travel in large
2:32:17groups. Only after meeting Su Ming did
2:32:19they realize that everything was wrong.
2:32:21Lingi is generally sold through two
2:32:23channels. One is through official
2:32:25channels such as exchanging Lingi
2:32:27points. One is through unofficial
2:32:29channels based on market transaction
2:32:31prices. The transaction price which is
2:32:33not based on official channels has
2:32:35always been determined by Sue Ming or
2:32:37the forces behind him. This force
2:32:39consists of veteran spirit farmers who
2:32:41have been in the core area of the spirit
2:32:43field for at least 3 years. Its name is
2:32:46Nongsham Society. When our price is
2:32:48high, when our price is low, they
2:32:50control everything. With only two years
2:32:52left until the formal disciple grand
2:32:54competition, the competition is drawing
2:32:56near. Therefore, Su Mingshing and others
2:32:59deliberately limited the number of
2:33:01spiritual plants. First, reduce the
2:33:03output flowing into the market and
2:33:05increase customer demand. They then take
2:33:07this opportunity to raise prices,
2:33:09thereby making a fortune. Normally, two
2:33:12caddies of grade two spirit rice can be
2:33:14exchanged for one low-grade spirit
2:33:16stone, but under their control, two can
2:33:18now be sold. Chapter 18, Monopolies
2:33:21Everywhere. Everyone has no choice.
2:33:24Chapter 18, Monopolies Everywhere.
2:33:26Everyone has no choice. Gentlemen, I've
2:33:28said everything I needed to say. Do you
2:33:30want to join or? Suing<unk>s gaze
2:33:32shifted back and forth between the two
2:33:34men. Su Chongqing was very interested in
2:33:37this. I'll join. Su Ming immediately
2:33:39smiled broadly. Welcome fellow Daoist
2:33:42Kai to the team. And what about fellow
2:33:44Daist Lynn? Immediately, both he and Su
2:33:47Chongqing turned their gazes to the
2:33:49third person. Lin Mingru frowned
2:33:51slightly, and after thinking it over,
2:33:53she said, "I<unk>ll think about it some
2:33:54more." "Of course, no problem. Even if
2:33:57we don't cooperate this time, it's
2:33:59fine." Su Mingshing nodded. Nang
2:34:01Corporation controls the vast majority
2:34:03of spiritual rice and spiritual plants.
2:34:06Even if a small amount enters the
2:34:08market, it will not have any impact on
2:34:10the overall situation. But it was
2:34:11precisely because of Lin Mingru's
2:34:13rejection. Throughout the journey, Su
2:34:15Ming primarily interacted with Su
2:34:17Chongqing. Through this communication,
2:34:20Su Chongqing learned a lot of
2:34:22information. For example, the five
2:34:24spiritual roots represent the five
2:34:25forces. The group led by Mu Ling Jen is
2:34:28the Nongshin Society. The group led by
2:34:30the water spirit root is the Talisman
2:34:33Master Association. The fire spirit root
2:34:35faction is led by the alchemy alliance.
2:34:38The one led by Gene Ling Jen is the
2:34:40spirit weapon workshop. The group led by
2:34:42the earth spirit route is the formation
2:34:44master. All five factions have trading
2:34:47points in red maple valley. Actually,
2:34:49you can tell just from the name. Nangim
2:34:51has monopolized the market for spiritual
2:34:53plants. The Daniela Ming Dyum
2:34:56monopolizes the elixir market. The
2:34:58talisman masters association monopolizes
2:35:01the talisman market. Lingi workshop
2:35:03monopolizes the spiritual artifact
2:35:05market. The formation master is a
2:35:07special case because not all disciples
2:35:10with earth elemental roots can become
2:35:12array masters. This field requires
2:35:14extremely high comprehension to even
2:35:16begin to understand. However, it must be
2:35:19admitted that most people have only
2:35:21average comprehension skills. Because of
2:35:23its scarcity, it cannot be replaced.
2:35:25Hence its high price. Unfortunately,
2:35:28everyone needs the help of formations.
2:35:30And the higher the cultivation level,
2:35:32the greater the need. Of course, that
2:35:34doesn't mean there aren't any truly
2:35:36independent individuals. Yes, but not
2:35:38many. They're either newcomers and not
2:35:40qualified to be recruited. Either they
2:35:42are powerful enough to look down on a
2:35:44certain faction. Su Chongqing asked
2:35:46curiously, "Fellow Dist, isn't it true
2:35:49that most of the spirit farmers in our
2:35:51spirit fields, especially those senior
2:35:53brothers who have reached the foundation
2:35:55establishment stage, are in the farmers
2:35:57heart society?" Not bad, Su Ming
2:36:00affirmed. I remember there was a
2:36:01foundation establishment stage senior
2:36:03brother named Jean Su. Is he here? Su
2:36:06Choning asked again. Senior brother
2:36:08Jeang Su is not here. However, Su Ming
2:36:11shook his head. Huh? Su Chongqing was a
2:36:14little surprised. Su Ming explained,
2:36:16"Senior brother Jeang Su has some
2:36:18connections with the people from the
2:36:19alchemy alliance. So, the spirit fields
2:36:22are planted with medicinal herbs." Su
2:36:24Chongqing suddenly realized. This
2:36:26explains why the other party doesn't
2:36:27grow spirit rice. We've arrived at Red
2:36:30Maple Valley. At this moment, Lin
2:36:32Mungrew, who had been silent for a long
2:36:34time, spoke up to remind them. Upon
2:36:36hearing this, Such Chan looked ahead. I
2:36:39was immediately struck by the scenery.
2:36:41It truly lives up to its name, Red Maple
2:36:43Valley. Everywhere you look, there are
2:36:46red maple leaves. Together, they
2:36:48resemble a blood red ocean. In the
2:36:50deepest part, there is an incredibly
2:36:52huge ancient red maple tree. Its
2:36:54branches and leaves are lush, and its
2:36:56height reaches into the clouds. Its
2:36:58leaves resemble the pink palms of a
2:37:00human baby. When the wind blew, a clap
2:37:03clap clap sound immediately came as if
2:37:05applauding and welcome. Soon, under Su
2:37:08Ming<unk>s control, the flying paper
2:37:10cranes slowly descended and the three of
2:37:12them landed. Lin Manu didn't say much
2:37:14and walked straight ahead. Su Chongqing
2:37:17followed Su Ming to the Nomshin
2:37:19Society's trading point. Soon, an
2:37:21antique wooden building came into view.
2:37:24There are three floors in total. I don't
2:37:25know about the top two floors, but the
2:37:27first floor has the highest foot
2:37:29traffic. Almost all of them were people
2:37:31queuing above the trading window.
2:37:33Today's transaction price is clearly
2:37:35displayed. Thanks to the deliberate hype
2:37:37by Su Ming and others, the price of
2:37:39Lingi, a type of rice, has skyrocketed.
2:37:42The spirit rice produced in second grade
2:37:44spirit fields may vary in price
2:37:46depending on the quality, but it won't
2:37:48be outrageously expensive. Originally,
2:37:50two caddies of second grade highquality
2:37:52spirit rice could only be exchanged for
2:37:55one low-grade spirit stone. Now it's 1.5
2:37:57colon 1. That is 1.5 gene can be
2:38:00exchanged for one low-grade spirit
2:38:02stone. Even the top quality spiritual
2:38:04rice has changed from a ratio of 10:1 to
2:38:077:1. As for the premium spiritual rice,
2:38:10it was snapped up even more frantically.
2:38:12There's no way around it. Many people
2:38:14want to make a name for themselves at
2:38:16the formal disciple competition. If
2:38:18you're lucky, you might be noticed by
2:38:20the immortal master and become a core
2:38:22disciple. Hu Chanqing couldn't help but
2:38:25gasp as he watched. Su Ming said with a
2:38:27smug look, "Fellow Dowist Kai, now you
2:38:30know how wise your choice was. Then how
2:38:32should I make the transaction?" Su
2:38:34Chongqing quickly calmed down. Su Ming
2:38:37smiled and said, "You haven't been a
2:38:39member for 3 years yet, so you can't
2:38:41fully join the Nongshin Society, but
2:38:43with my introduction, you can exchange
2:38:451.8 gene of grade two highquality spirit
2:38:48rice for one low-grade spirit stone."
2:38:511.81, huh? Such Chonqing said
2:38:54thoughtfully. "This is higher than the
2:38:56market share. That is 1.51.
2:38:59It's obvious that they're the ones who
2:39:00suffer the loss. To tell you the truth,
2:39:03that fellow Daist Lynn was targeted by
2:39:05our people because he refused to join.
2:39:07The next one will be 1.9 colon 1, even
2:39:10higher than yours. Now that things had
2:39:12come to this, Su Ming stopped pretending
2:39:14and his eyes turned fierce. Over the
2:39:17years, the market has long been
2:39:18monopolized by Nsham. Even if some
2:39:21escaped the net, they couldn't cause any
2:39:23waves. Okay, Su Chongqing couldn't find
2:39:26a reason to refuse. Even if I sell it
2:39:28outside, I'll still be targeted. They
2:39:30don't even know how long it will take to
2:39:31sell them and the proportion will
2:39:33definitely be higher than it is now. Why
2:39:35not collaborate with Nonsham? It may
2:39:37seem like a loss, but that's not
2:39:39actually the case. The market price
2:39:41itself is manipulated by others. Even
2:39:43without Nonsham, there would be no such
2:39:45thing as a Nonsham Sha. Two caddies of
2:39:48second grade highquality spirit rice can
2:39:50only be sold for one low-grade spirit
2:39:52stone. Therefore, even if you sell it at
2:39:54a 1.8:1 ratio, you will still make a
2:39:57profit. If you want to get out of the
2:39:59situation, you have no choice but to
2:40:01change the spiritual plant. High quality
2:40:03naturally comes at a higher price or
2:40:05like Jeang Su, cultivate various
2:40:08expensive medicinal herbs. Su Ming said
2:40:10earnestly. Fellow Daist Kai, "You will
2:40:13never regret your decision today." Su
2:40:15Chongqing directly took out 300 caddies
2:40:18of top grade spirit rice produced from a
2:40:20second grade spirit field. This can be
2:40:22considered an initial test. It's
2:40:24actually top grade spirit rice. Su
2:40:26Mingshing couldn't help but look at his
2:40:28fellow disciple with new respect. I
2:40:30thought it would be good enough if it
2:40:31reached the high quality level. The
2:40:33proportions of premium rice are
2:40:35naturally different now. The premium
2:40:36grade is 1.8. The best one is 1.6. He
2:40:40promptly and readily gave them 187
2:40:43low-grade spirit stones. Now, let's
2:40:46exclude the 10 gene that were lent to
2:40:47Xiaozi Yao. In addition, there are the
2:40:50300 gene that have been sold so far. Su
2:40:52Chongqing still had 790 gene of top
2:40:55grade spirit rice from a second grade
2:40:57spirit field. This is my communication
2:40:59talisman. You can contact me anytime. Su
2:41:02Ming took out a talisman. Okay. Su
2:41:04Chonqing tossed everything into his
2:41:06small storage bag and then left the
2:41:08trading point. Once outside, he quickly
2:41:11spotted Lining Ru in a corner. That is
2:41:13the female disciple with the wood spirit
2:41:15route who just arrived at the red maple
2:41:17valley market. She indeed chose to sell
2:41:19the second grade premium spiritual rice
2:41:22herself. The ratio is 1.6:1, slightly
2:41:25higher than the market average. Just
2:41:27then, a disciple with a wood elemental
2:41:29root suddenly appeared from the side. He
2:41:31also started setting up a stall and his
2:41:33share was even higher than Lin Manu's.
2:41:36Lin Manu 1.6:1.
2:41:38This person's ratio is 1.7:1. No matter
2:41:42how much Lin Manu improves, he will
2:41:44always strive to be even better. They
2:41:46even managed to come back to two to one
2:41:48at one point. That is two caddies of
2:41:50second grade spirit rice are equal to
2:41:52one low-grade spirit stone. Lin Manu
2:41:55lost all her clients and was even called
2:41:57a propheteer. Su Chongqing observed
2:42:00silently and discovered that no matter
2:42:02how many places she changed to as soon
2:42:04as you set up a stall, people
2:42:06immediately pop up. Finally, having no
2:42:08other choice, I obediently headed
2:42:10towards the Nongsham society trading
2:42:12point. This fellow Dowist Lynn seems to
2:42:15distrust. Nomin Society. Su Chongqing
2:42:17pondered. Because of his experience in
2:42:20his previous life, he agreed to sue
2:42:21Ming<unk>s request. If you don't agree,
2:42:24you'll offend not this person, but Nam
2:42:26Society. What can a mere small-scale
2:42:28farmer do against a behemoth that
2:42:30monopolizes the market? However, as
2:42:32things stand, Nongsham society is
2:42:35leaning towards the spirit of farmers
2:42:37because as long as the ratio doesn't
2:42:38return to 2:1, there will be no loss.
2:42:41It's just a matter of how much or how
2:42:43little you earn. Chapter 19. Gene
2:42:45Kimming and Po's attempt to reconcile
2:42:47with the law is hindered. Chapter 19.
2:42:50Gene Kimu Pmo wanting to cooperate with
2:42:52the law, but being thwarted, Such
2:42:54Chongqing casually found a spot to start
2:42:56setting up a stall. But what they were
2:42:58selling was not spirit rice, but spirit
2:43:00rice wine. This went unnoticed by many
2:43:03members of the Nsham Society who were
2:43:05secretly observing. Fellow Dowist, how
2:43:07much is your spirit rice wine? 10
2:43:09lowgrade spirit stones per pound. Holy
2:43:12crap. Is this made with second grade
2:43:14spirit rice or third grade spirit rice?
2:43:16Look, it's definitely different from
2:43:18what's on the market. Can I try some?
2:43:21Can. Such Chongqing sized up the male
2:43:23disciple opposite him. The person was
2:43:25wearing white clothes with a white crane
2:43:27pattern embroidered on the chest. His
2:43:29head was shaved and he had a
2:43:31centipede-like scar on his face. He was
2:43:33also carrying a rather heavy-looking
2:43:35chains. Judging from his appearance, he
2:43:37should be a disciple with multiple
2:43:39spiritual roots and be skilled in
2:43:41combat. The other person reached out and
2:43:43took a small cup of spirit rice wine
2:43:45first smelling it. After confirming that
2:43:47the taste was fine, I took a small sip
2:43:50with my lips touching the rim of the
2:43:51glass. The cool liquor glides into your
2:43:54mouth, releasing a rich aroma of rice
2:43:56and alcohol. In an instant, the
2:43:58suspicious expression on the male
2:44:00disciples face disappeared. Instead,
2:44:02they have bright eyes. They smack their
2:44:04lips, savoring the memory. Su Chongqing
2:44:07asked with a smile, "How is it?" "Good
2:44:09wine!" the male disciple shouted,
2:44:11instantly attracting the attention of
2:44:13those around him. Isn't this PM mo the
2:44:15sword mad man with dual spiritual roots?
2:44:18He's come to the market again, looking
2:44:20for wine. Get away from him. This guy
2:44:22goes on a rampage when he's drunk. He'll
2:44:24start slashing at anyone he sees. I
2:44:27heard it's because of incompatible
2:44:28spiritual roots that he has such an
2:44:30eccentric personality. Jean Keming. This
2:44:33guy's future is already decided. Many
2:44:35people recognized him and immediately
2:44:37ran as far away as possible. It was as
2:44:40if I had seen a plague god. Su Chongqing
2:44:42observed the reactions of those around
2:44:44him, then asked the other person, "Buy
2:44:46or not." "Buy it?" Pmo finished the rest
2:44:49of the spirit rice wine in one gulp,
2:44:51then nodded vigorously. "How much?" Su
2:44:54Chonqing asked, preparing to repackage
2:44:56the items. To everyone's surprise, Pmo
2:44:59waved his hand dismissively. All of
2:45:01them. Su Chonqing was taken aback. Ten
2:45:04Xene is worth 100 low-grade spirit
2:45:06stones. Are you sure? Po stared intently
2:45:09at him and asked, "Do I look like I'm
2:45:11joking?" Su Chonqing stopped wasting
2:45:14words and handed over all 10 caddies of
2:45:16spirit rice wine. Pmo readily took out
2:45:19100 low-grade spirit stones. Just as Su
2:45:21Chongqing was about to leave after the
2:45:23transaction was completed, PMO suddenly
2:45:26stopped him, chuckling. Buddy, this is
2:45:28my communication talisman. If you ever
2:45:30have any more wine of this quality, just
2:45:32let me know. UK. Su Chonqing took it.
2:45:35Good wine. Good wine. Po said as he
2:45:38swayed away while drinking. The
2:45:39transactions are almost complete. It's
2:45:41time to make some purchases. Su Chonqing
2:45:43pondered. Everyday items, magical tools,
2:45:46and so on all need to be replaced.
2:45:48Firstly, it's definitely not enough.
2:45:51Secondly, the new year brings a new
2:45:52look. Next, he walked further down the
2:45:55trading street. Although the vast
2:45:56majority of resources are monopolized by
2:45:58the five major grassroots forces.
2:46:01However, there are still many individual
2:46:03sellers, but the quality is not high.
2:46:05Soon, Su Chongqing spotted a familiar
2:46:07face. The familiar mythical creature,
2:46:10the camel, the familiar bell who, of
2:46:13course, he's a peddler who doesn't
2:46:14return. Selling spirit beasts, all young
2:46:17spirit beasts at reasonable prices. Who
2:46:20Booga continued to shout, "You really
2:46:22are here." Su Chan leaned closer. Oh,
2:46:25isn't this fellow Daist Su? Hubuay<unk>s
2:46:27eyes lit up. What? Su Chonqing joked,
2:46:30not selling excrement this time. Hubui
2:46:33said somewhat awkwardly. Things are
2:46:35different now. How about we choose a
2:46:37spirit beast? Upon hearing this, Su
2:46:39Chon<unk>s gaze swept back and forth
2:46:41over these strangely shaped young spirit
2:46:43beasts, but he couldn't find a single
2:46:45one that satisfied him. Upon seeing
2:46:47this, Hubui immediately made a
2:46:50recommendation. You are a disciple with
2:46:52a wood spirit route and you need to stay
2:46:54in the spirit fields for a long time. In
2:46:56that case, why not buy a spirit ax?
2:46:58First, spirit cattle have a relatively
2:47:00long lifespan. Secondly, this thing can
2:47:03also be used for farming. Therefore, it
2:47:05is the first choice for many disciples
2:47:07with the wood spirit route. I don't want
2:47:09to ride on Chun Lau's coattails. Su
2:47:12Chonqing shook his head. Huh? What's the
2:47:14buzz? Hubuay looked completely
2:47:16bewildered. It's nothing. I'll take
2:47:18another look. Su Chongqing was too lazy
2:47:20to explain. Woof woof. Just then, a dog
2:47:23barked. This immediately caught Su
2:47:25Chongqing<unk>s attention, and he
2:47:27quickly looked over. There was a young
2:47:29yellow puppy in the corner. Yellow dog
2:47:31with white face. His eyes were bright
2:47:33and lively. Its little tail stood up
2:47:35high. It will be wary of anyone who gets
2:47:37too close. This little yellow dog
2:47:39inevitably brought Su Chongqing back to
2:47:42his memories. In his previous life, he
2:47:44was born in a rural area. My family has
2:47:47kept many cats and dogs. One of the dogs
2:47:49named Big Yellow is very intelligent.
2:47:52Every time I came home from school, I
2:47:54would see it greeting me at the village
2:47:56entrance. Before anyone even got close,
2:47:58its tail started wagging wildly. It's
2:48:01not exactly the same as the one we see
2:48:02now, but this feeling seemed familiar.
2:48:05You like it? Hubui reacted quickly,
2:48:07waving his hand. It's yours. No, I'll
2:48:10buy it. Su Chonqing did not accept this
2:48:12offer. Hubui said nonchalantly. The
2:48:16little yellow dog is worthless. In your
2:48:18eyes, it may be dirt and worthless, but
2:48:21in my eyes, it's different. Such
2:48:23Chonqing said, taking out five low-grade
2:48:25spirit stones from his small storage bag
2:48:27and handing them over without saying a
2:48:29word. Hubuay did not accept the offer,
2:48:32but instead asked with a dry laugh, "Can
2:48:34I exchange it for spirit rice? You don't
2:48:36have any rice?" Su Choning asked in
2:48:39surprise. Hubuay said helplessly. Rice
2:48:42is too expensive now, let alone second
2:48:44grade spirit rice. We can't even afford
2:48:46first grade spirit rice. Okay. Such
2:48:49Chanqing exchanged the low-grade spirit
2:48:51stones for 10 caddies of second grade
2:48:53spirit rice and handed it over. Wow.
2:48:56Hubui exclaimed in astonishment. He
2:48:59initially thought the other party was
2:49:00just going through the motions. I didn't
2:49:02expect them to give so much. It's just a
2:49:04little yellow dog not worth 10 catties
2:49:06of second grade spirit rice at all.
2:49:08Clearly, this person truly considers you
2:49:11a friend. I was deeply moved. After
2:49:13giving the spirit rice, Su Chongqing
2:49:15slowly approached the little yellow dog.
2:49:17It's strange really. It is very wary of
2:49:20anyone who gets close to it. It even
2:49:22barked, giving off a keepa away vibe.
2:49:24But when it was Su Chongqing<unk>s turn,
2:49:26it not only didn't get angry, but
2:49:28instead wagged its tail. Perhaps this is
2:49:30fate. Su Chongqing<unk>s gaze softened.
2:49:33He reached out and scooped the little
2:49:35yellow dog into his palm. Slurp, slurp.
2:49:37The little creature immediately stuck
2:49:39out its soft black and pink tongue and
2:49:42began to lick skillfully. Hubuay asked
2:49:44curiously, "Have you decided on a name
2:49:46yet?" "Not yet. Let the readers decide."
2:49:49Such Chongqing shook his head. "You're
2:49:51saying things I don't understand again."
2:49:53Hubui rolled his eyes. "It's nothing. I
2:49:56still need to buy some daily
2:49:57necessities. I'll be going now." Su
2:49:59Chongqing turned to leave. "Wait."
2:50:02Hubuay hurriedly took out a metal ring.
2:50:04This is a spirit beast ring which can
2:50:06hold a spirit beast that is no more than
2:50:085 meters in size and no more than 10
2:50:11meters in length. This thing is quite
2:50:13expensive. Ordinary spirit beasts would
2:50:15not normally be willing to take them
2:50:17out. Since Such Chonqing is so sincere,
2:50:20he can't be stingy. It's so small. It
2:50:22seems like it doesn't matter whether
2:50:24it's embellished or not. Su Chonqing
2:50:26took it and examined it carefully. Take
2:50:28it first just in case there are other
2:50:30spirit beasts later. Hubui chuckled.
2:50:33Such Chanqing tried to inject spiritual
2:50:35energy into the spirit beast circle. The
2:50:38words owned immediately appeared on it.
2:50:41Immediately afterwards, the little
2:50:42yellow dog, in the other hand, was
2:50:44sucked in with a whoosh. At the same
2:50:46time, a scene flashed through Su
2:50:48Chong<unk>s mind. The contents are a
2:50:50three-dimensional space similar to a
2:50:52small storage bag. A small yellow dog,
2:50:55now without its owner, is looking around
2:50:57blankly. Su Chongqing<unk>s heart
2:50:59stirred, and the image reappeared in his
2:51:01palm the next second. Woof woof. The
2:51:03little guy barked excitedly twice upon
2:51:05seeing his owner again. Don't worry, I
2:51:08won't abandon you. Su Chonqing gently
2:51:10stroked it. They were then put back into
2:51:12the spirit beast enclosure. Then, after
2:51:15saying goodbye to Hubuay, we continued
2:51:17shopping. They were able to purchase
2:51:19some daily necessities in no time. They
2:51:21quickly arrived at this spirit weapon
2:51:23shop Trading Point only to find that the
2:51:25prices were too high. Even a casual
2:51:27everyday magical artifact costs more
2:51:30than 10 low-grade spirit stones.
2:51:32Clearly, this spirit weapon workshop is
2:51:34the same as Nomshin Society. Everyone
2:51:37wants to take this opportunity to fleece
2:51:39the people. This has led to an increase
2:51:41in the price of everyday magical
2:51:43artifacts. But unfortunately, Such
2:51:45Chanching currently has no other
2:51:47purchasing channels. I can only be the
2:51:49sucker. In the end, it cost 40 lowgrade
2:51:52spirit stones. I've bought four
2:51:54life-saving gadgets. They are sickle,
2:51:57hoe, shovel, and kitchen knife. because
2:51:59I've already bought all the daily
2:52:01necessities. Seeing that there was still
2:52:03time, Su Chongqing decided to look for
2:52:05magic. After wandering around for a
2:52:07while, they couldn't find a single one.
2:52:09Only after asking did I learn that
2:52:11spells could be exchanged for points.
2:52:13Alternatively, you could find someone
2:52:15else privately. If you really want to
2:52:16buy it, you'll have to go to the
2:52:18outlying markets. However, the spells
2:52:20there are mostly of varying quality, and
2:52:22some are even incomplete. Truly complete
2:52:24spells are almost monopolized by
2:52:26immortal sex and cultivation families. I
2:52:29won't go out without the strength of the
2:52:31foundation establishment stage, Such
2:52:33Chongqing said, raising an eyebrow.
2:52:35There is no need to worry about danger
2:52:37within the immortal sect. But things are
2:52:39different outside. We must be wary of
2:52:41everything. Chapter 20. Leing, the core
2:52:44figure, celebrates the new year in a
2:52:46dream. Chapter 20. Leing, the core
2:52:49character, celebrates the new year in a
2:52:52dream. The Red Maple Valley Market
2:52:54continues. Since it was Sue
2:52:55Choning<unk>s first time participating,
2:52:57everything was new and exciting to him.
2:52:59As noon approached, more and more people
2:53:01joined the market. Suddenly, something
2:53:04in the sky not far away started
2:53:05flashing. In the blink of an eye, rows
2:53:08of dark-colored shuttles floated above
2:53:10the market. Among them was a rather
2:53:12stylish red boat adorned with a flag.
2:53:14The foundation establishment stage
2:53:16disciple has arrived. That red boat,
2:53:19even the core disciples have appeared.
2:53:21We either walk or use paper cranes. Look
2:53:23at other people. Like everyone else
2:53:25around him, Such Chongqing looked up.
2:53:27The shuttle's interior is small and
2:53:29can't accommodate many people. The red
2:53:31boat is different. It is several times
2:53:33larger. Then I saw him surrounded by a
2:53:35group of formal disciples. The core
2:53:37disciples on the red boat floated down
2:53:39to the ground. The purple clothes stood
2:53:41out like a crane among chickens in a
2:53:43group of white clothes. Su Chongqing
2:53:46observed carefully and found that the
2:53:48pattern embroidered on the chest of this
2:53:49core disciple was different from the
2:53:51others. A triangular mountain with a fu
2:53:54character written in a vigorous and
2:53:56flowing style on it. It seems to have
2:53:58some connection with Yushu pavilion, but
2:54:00it's not the same. At this moment,
2:54:02someone nearby introduced. It turns out
2:54:04to be Lee Lingbi, the core disciple who
2:54:06has awakened three spiritual roots. Such
2:54:09Chonqing couldn't help but ask, "Fellow
2:54:12Daist, why is the pattern on his chest
2:54:14different from ours?" The person next to
2:54:16him explained, "Because the core
2:54:18disciples all have masters, and all
2:54:20those immortal masters live on the
2:54:22immortal mountains of our daunting
2:54:23immortal sect." Another person added,
2:54:26"The character Fu on this triangular
2:54:28mountain represents the shape of the
2:54:30mountain and the lineage of its master.
2:54:32A talisman, does that mean drawing
2:54:34talismans? Is very powerful?" Such
2:54:36Chanqing speculated. Those around him
2:54:38agreed wholeheartedly, saying, "This
2:54:40Leing is not only a genius with the
2:54:43three spiritual roots of metal, water,
2:54:45and wood complimenting each other. But
2:54:47his master is also the Grandmaster of
2:54:49Talisman Dao of our Daing immortal sect.
2:54:52The nent soul true monarch
2:54:56Such Chan could tell that many people
2:54:58envied Lee Ling by this core disciple.
2:55:00After all, the status of outer disciples
2:55:02and formal disciples is generally not
2:55:04high. Only by becoming a core disciple
2:55:07can one have a sliver of a chance to
2:55:09glimpse the path to immortality. This is
2:55:11why the formal disciple competition is
2:55:13so popular. Isn't that senior brother
2:55:16Lee Sanankai? Su Chonqing asked in
2:55:18astonishment. He noticed that an
2:55:20acquaintance was standing next to Leing.
2:55:22It was Li Sanankai who had helped him
2:55:24many times on the outskirts of Lingian.
2:55:26Judging from their positions, the other
2:55:28party was clearly closer to Leing. After
2:55:31all, there were quite a few formal
2:55:32disciples around who were even stronger
2:55:34than Li Sanankai. Noticing someone
2:55:37watching him, Li Sanankai subconsciously
2:55:39looked over. He was stunned for a moment
2:55:41when he saw that familiar face. I never
2:55:43expected to run into them here. Seeing
2:55:46this, Leing asked, "What's wrong,
2:55:48cousin?" Li Sananki replied, "I saw an
2:55:50acquaintance." Upon hearing this, Leing
2:55:53smiled and asked, "Should I wait for
2:55:55you?" Li quickly shook his head. No
2:55:58need. Admittedly, he and Su Chongqing
2:56:01did have some connection, but the
2:56:02relationship between the two has not yet
2:56:04reached that level. Moreover, his cousin
2:56:07had come to the Red Maple Valley Market
2:56:08on urgent business. Therefore, he simply
2:56:11nodded to Sue Chongqing as a greeting.
2:56:13Then, the group led by Lee Lingbi
2:56:16continued forward. Before long, they
2:56:18arrived at the entrance of the Nongshim
2:56:20trading point. Soon, nearly 10 people
2:56:22came out to greet them. Who dares to
2:56:24grace us with their presence? Its senior
2:56:26brother, Lingi. The leader was a female
2:56:28disciple with a wood elemental root
2:56:30possessing delicate features and a
2:56:32slender figure. Several handsome male
2:56:35dowist partners with water elemental
2:56:37roots accompanied her. Junior Sister Lu
2:56:40Leing joked, "It's been a long time
2:56:42since I've seen you. You've changed your
2:56:44dowist partner again." Lu Yuan Yuan
2:56:46smiled slightly. These spiritual plants
2:56:49are replaced once a year. This means
2:56:51that her daist companion is like the
2:56:53spiritual plants in the spiritual field.
2:56:55When the time is up or when people get
2:56:57tired of it, they'll replace it with a
2:56:59new batch. Anyway, there are always new
2:57:01disciples every year, and handsome guys
2:57:03are never short of them. Leing then
2:57:06followed Lu Yuan Yuan into the Nongshim
2:57:08society trading point. The crowd
2:57:10gradually dispersed. Could it be that
2:57:12Leing is here to buy resources? Su
2:57:14Chongqing wondered thoughtfully. This
2:57:16shows just how fierce the competition
2:57:18for resources is right now. Even core
2:57:20disciples had to come to Nam Society for
2:57:23help. Therefore, if you want to earn
2:57:25more, you need to come into contact with
2:57:27people at this level. We can't just grow
2:57:29spirit rice. We need to grow other
2:57:31spirit plants that are indispensable to
2:57:32others. Such Chonqing was not a pedantic
2:57:35person. You really do need to play it
2:57:37safe when it's time to play it safe. But
2:57:39we must also seize the opportunities
2:57:41that are worth seizing. He has made up
2:57:42his mind that he will plant more than
2:57:44just sacred rice in the spring. Only by
2:57:46striving to improve one's self-worth can
2:57:48one avoid being manipulated by people
2:57:50like Jeang. There's even the possibility
2:57:52of negotiating with a behemoth like
2:57:54Nonsham. It was evening. Such Chongqing
2:57:57returned to the core of the spiritual
2:57:59field on a flying paper crane. This trip
2:58:02was incredibly enriching in terms of
2:58:03both what I gained and what I learned.
2:58:06The house was exactly the same as when I
2:58:08left, covered in snow everywhere. After
2:58:10settling everything in, he released the
2:58:12little yellow dog from the spirit beast
2:58:14enclosure. When it was moved to an
2:58:16unfamiliar place, it seemed very
2:58:18nervous, constantly looking around. From
2:58:21now on, this will be your home. Don't
2:58:23pee everywhere. Once it's not cold
2:58:25anymore, you'll have to go outside to
2:58:27check on the fields. Such Chonqing
2:58:29reached out and touched the little guy's
2:58:31fluffy head. Then, they began preparing
2:58:33dinner. Because we have an extra pet,
2:58:35and it's a spirit beast at that,
2:58:37therefore, the portion size should be
2:58:39slightly larger than before. Anyway, I
2:58:42still have several hundred catties of
2:58:43grade 2 spirit rice on me, so I don't
2:58:45have to worry about food at all.
2:58:47Outside, the cold wind held. Snowflakes
2:58:50drifted slowly down from the sky. The
2:58:52world is getting colder and colder. The
2:58:54light also became increasingly dim.
2:58:56Inside the simple wooden house at the
2:58:58narrow dining table, a man and a dog ate
2:59:01second grade spirit rice and drank first
2:59:03grade spirit rice wine. Although it is
2:59:05somewhat lonely and monotonous, it has a
2:59:08unique charm. A toast to myself. I'll
2:59:10work even harder next year. Such
2:59:12Chongqing raised his glass and downed it
2:59:14in one gulp, smacking his lips as he
2:59:17savored the lingering aroma of the
2:59:18alcohol. Woof woof. The little guy
2:59:21barked twice and wagged his tail
2:59:22excitedly. "All right, I'll toast you,
2:59:24too. You'd better take good care of the
2:59:26house from now on." Such Choning
2:59:28grinned, then refilled his wine glass
2:59:30and lightly clinkedked it against its
2:59:32water bowl. And so it went, one cup
2:59:34after another. In the end, I didn't eat
2:59:37much food, but I drank my fill of
2:59:38alcohol. I had originally planned to
2:59:40stay up all night on New Year's Eve.
2:59:43Before long, he felt dizzy and fell
2:59:45asleep. Fellow Dowist Sue. After an
2:59:48unknown amount of time, someone's voice
2:59:50called out from outside. Chapter 21.
2:59:52Life is inherently unpredictable. The
2:59:55human heart is the most complex. Chapter
2:59:5721. The world is inherently
2:59:59unpredictable and the human heart is the
3:00:02most complex. Fellow Daist Su Linen
3:00:05called out again from outside the door.
3:00:06There was still no movement inside. This
3:00:09made him wonder if the other person
3:00:10wasn't there. After all, many people
3:00:12went to the Red Maple Valley Market to
3:00:14celebrate the new year yesterday. Who is
3:00:16it? Such Chonqing got upon hearing the
3:00:18voice. With a creek, the door opened.
3:00:21Suddenly, a cold, damp wind rushed in.
3:00:24Su Chonqing, being a cultivator, didn't
3:00:26react much. The sleepy little guy was
3:00:29shivering from the cold. It's me. Lynn
3:00:31and<unk>s eyes lit up immediately and he
3:00:33quickly stepped forward. So early, Su
3:00:35Chongqing was taken aback for a moment,
3:00:37then stepped aside to make room for him.
3:00:39Come in and let's<unk> talk. Linen wiped
3:00:42the snow off the soles of his shoes
3:00:44before going inside. I was a little
3:00:46surprised to see an extra little yellow
3:00:47dog. I'm lonely, so I got a pet for
3:00:50company. Such Chonqing explained as he
3:00:52closed the door. Lynn nodded. That's
3:00:54understandable. Most spirit farmers are
3:00:56like that. Su Chongqing poured the other
3:00:58person a glass of water and then asked,
3:01:00"What do you want?" Linen seemed
3:01:02hesitant to speak this. Just tell me
3:01:05directly. Su Chongqing knew that the
3:01:07person who came to see him during the
3:01:09spring festival must have something to
3:01:10say. Lynen gritted his teeth and said,
3:01:13"As you know, I didn't plant anything
3:01:15last winter, so I don't have much spirit
3:01:17rice on hand. That wouldn't have been a
3:01:19problem, but who knew that resources
3:01:21would be so scarce this year? The earth
3:01:23and water spirit root disciples I
3:01:25cooperated with before are even urging
3:01:27me to plant more rice. Su Chonqing
3:01:29understood instantly. Because the five
3:01:32major powers are speculating on
3:01:33resources, the prices of many things
3:01:35have skyrocketed. One low-grade spirit
3:01:38stone could normally buy 10 caddies of
3:01:40first grade spirit rice. The current
3:01:42ratio changes every day. Yesterday it
3:01:44was 1 col 7. Today it could be 1 6. As
3:01:48for the second grade spirit rice, the
3:01:50ratio is an astonishing 1 minute and 1.5
3:01:53seconds. There's even a downward trend,
3:01:56making it unaffordable for many ordinary
3:01:58disciples. I have no spirit rice, so I
3:02:00can only ask you for help, Linen said
3:02:03helplessly, Su Chongqing looked slightly
3:02:05surprised. Why the sudden rush? Linen
3:02:08immediately said angrily. They got lucky
3:02:10and all of them became formal disciples.
3:02:13There was an element of gambling
3:02:14involved when I signed the spiritual
3:02:16contract with these two people. I'm
3:02:18betting that one or even both of them
3:02:19will fail to get permanent positions.
3:02:21Then the initiative will be in our own
3:02:23hands. Even if only one person is
3:02:26successfully promoted to a permanent
3:02:27position, it's barely enough to get by.
3:02:30As it turned out, either they weren't
3:02:31promoted to permanent positions or they
3:02:34were promoted together. Once one becomes
3:02:36a formal disciple, the demand for
3:02:38spiritual rice will increase
3:02:39significantly. The two have now made
3:02:41their statements public. If it is top
3:02:43grade spiritual rice, each person should
3:02:46consume at least 300 gene 150 kg. If it
3:02:50is second grade spirit rice, each person
3:02:52will receive 100 caddies. The problem is
3:02:55that Lynn and didn't plant any spirit
3:02:56rice last winter. He doesn't even have
3:02:58much grade one spirit rice, let alone
3:03:01grade two spirit rice. Su Chongqing
3:03:03narrowed his eyes, weighing the options
3:03:05in his mind. Admittedly, I have a good
3:03:08relationship with linen, but if a large
3:03:10amount of spirit rice is actually
3:03:12produced, it doesn't matter whether it's
3:03:14first grade or second grade. Once this
3:03:16news gets out, it will definitely arouse
3:03:18suspicion from others. A person who
3:03:20failed two consecutive external
3:03:21assessments. How come someone who just
3:03:24joined the core of the spirit field can
3:03:25grow so much spirit rice? The key is
3:03:28still the winter when production
3:03:29decreases. As the saying goes, a small
3:03:32favor is appreciated, but a large one
3:03:34breeds resentment. Linen is probably all
3:03:37right. He's not that vicious. But Xiaozi
3:03:39Yao is the kind of person who will
3:03:41definitely turn on you and might even
3:03:43cause trouble. If it attracts
3:03:44Jangir<unk>s attention, the situation
3:03:46will become even more dire. If you're
3:03:49having difficulties, then forget it.
3:03:51Linen saw this and knew that it was
3:03:53indeed a bit much to ask someone to
3:03:54borrow rice so soon after the new year.
3:03:57Su Chongqing thought for a moment and
3:03:59said, "To tell you the truth, I only
3:04:01have 40 caddies of second grade spirit
3:04:03rice left. Then could you lend me some?
3:04:06Lynn and eyes held a glimmer of hope. In
3:04:09the Donging immortal sect, contracts are
3:04:11taken very seriously. If you break the
3:04:13contract, you will be severely punished,
3:04:16even if you are a formal disciple. They
3:04:18might even be driven out of the spirit
3:04:19field. At most 20 caddies, I'll use the
3:04:22rest myself. Su Chongqing only agreed
3:04:25because the other party had helped
3:04:26introduce Jang Su. Thank you so much. I
3:04:29will definitely repay you double. Linen
3:04:31was extremely excited. Su Chongqing
3:04:33asked curiously. But even if we give you
3:04:3620 gene, what will you do with the rest?
3:04:38Lynon instantly slumped, his face
3:04:40hanging low as he replied. I'll have to
3:04:42borrow from someone else. Good luck, Su
3:04:45Chongqing said, taking out 20 caddies of
3:04:48second grade spirit rise from his small
3:04:49storage bag. Fellow Daist Su, I will
3:04:52never forget this kindness. Linen
3:04:54promised repeatedly before accepting the
3:04:56gift. Su Chongqing said earnestly. If I
3:04:59can still stay in the core of the spirit
3:05:01field, I'll treat you to a drink. Then
3:05:03Linen paused for a moment, then nodded
3:05:05vigorously. Okay. Then he left. Such
3:05:09Chonqing stood at the door, looking at
3:05:11the other person's rather disheveled
3:05:12back and murmured, "Fellow Daist Lynn,
3:05:15now it's up to your own fate." As the
3:05:17saying goes, "One should not have the
3:05:19heart to harm others, but one should not
3:05:21be without the heart to guard against
3:05:23others. It's not that he's unwilling to
3:05:25help, but rather that people's hearts
3:05:27are too complicated. Unexpectedly,
3:05:29around noon, someone else came to the
3:05:31door. Senior brother Sue, it's been a
3:05:33long time. Han Su, who has the Earth
3:05:36Spirit Route, said with a dry laugh. Why
3:05:38are you here? Su Chonqing asked somewhat
3:05:41surprised. I came here specifically to
3:05:43wish my senior brother a happy new year,
3:05:45Hanu grinned. Now that you've paid your
3:05:47respects, you can go back. Su Chonqing
3:05:50waved his hand. No. Hanu exclaimed
3:05:52anxiously. What exactly happened? In
3:05:55fact, Su Chongqing already had a guess
3:05:57in his heart. Han Su said with a rice
3:05:59smile, "I'd like to borrow some rice
3:06:01from you." Su Chongqing was not
3:06:03surprised at all and even decisively
3:06:05refused. "No." Hansu still refused to
3:06:08give up and said with a mournful face,
3:06:10"I didn't want to borrow rice from you.
3:06:12But who knew that damned Lynn and didn't
3:06:14have any rice?" Su Chongqing leaned
3:06:17against the door frame, his expression
3:06:19slightly amused, and said, "Isn't it
3:06:21normal to not have rice? Formal
3:06:23disciples don't need to plant in the
3:06:25winter." Han Su hadn't expected this
3:06:27rule and immediately frowned. But now
3:06:29that I've become a formal disciple, I
3:06:32have a great need for spirit rice. Oh,
3:06:34Su Chan blinked. From now on, I'll have
3:06:37to call you fellow Daist Han. Han Su was
3:06:40so frightened that he quickly said, "No,
3:06:42no, no. Just call me Junior Brother."
3:06:44Upon hearing this, Su Choning stopped
3:06:47joking and spread his hands, saying, "I
3:06:49really don't have any rice." Han Su
3:06:52asked tentatively, "Didn't you promise
3:06:54me to loosen the soil on the outer
3:06:56perimeter earlier? It would be best if
3:06:58we could borrow some rice." But the key
3:07:00issue this time wasn't borrowing rice.
3:07:02Rather, it is meant to be used to
3:07:04introduce the matter of loosening the
3:07:06soil in the Lion field in the spring.
3:07:08This is a great opportunity for
3:07:09publicity. Such Chanqing was surprised
3:07:12to find himself waiting here and raised
3:07:14an eyebrow. You already have linen, and
3:07:16didn't you loosen the soil for many
3:07:18people when you were on the outskirts?
3:07:20Hans Su was immediately furious. In the
3:07:23autumn, you and Lynn became formal
3:07:25disciples. But as for the winter, it was
3:07:27all a failure. He had his doubts in
3:07:29private as well. Is there something
3:07:31wrong with my eyes? You can't judge
3:07:33people accurately. Linen in particular
3:07:36is a heavyweight, a complete scoundrel.
3:07:38this. Su Chonqing hesitated. He could
3:07:41now choose to cooperate with a disciple
3:07:43with more experience in earth spirit
3:07:44roots. 50 caddies. I only need 50
3:07:47caddies of grade two spirit rice for a
3:07:50quarter. Han Su gritted his teeth and
3:07:52stomped his foot, going all out. Chapter
3:07:5422. Going out to collect spring
3:07:56seedlings, recommending fourleaf
3:07:58clovers. Chapter 22. Going out to
3:08:01collect spring seedlings. Recommending
3:08:03fourleaf clover. As the days passed, the
3:08:05winter snow began to melt. The
3:08:07temperature is getting lower and lower.
3:08:09The little ones are too cold to leave
3:08:11their nest. You stay home and rest. I'm
3:08:13going to get the spring seedlings. Such
3:08:15Chongqing didn't care whether it
3:08:17understood or not. And after saying
3:08:19that, he opened the door and walked
3:08:20towards the core management office. With
3:08:23only a few days left until spring, the
3:08:25necessary steps cannot be skipped.
3:08:27Normally, it takes about half an hour to
3:08:29get to the core management office.
3:08:31However, the thawing issue made the
3:08:33roads difficult to navigate. It took a
3:08:35full hour to arrive this time. If all
3:08:37else fails, let's buy a paper crane
3:08:39first. Su Chongqing stood on the steps,
3:08:42wiping the mud off the soles of his feet
3:08:44with a look of disgust before stepping
3:08:46into the hall. Because it was still
3:08:48early, there weren't many disciples.
3:08:50Regardless of gender, they were all
3:08:52disciples with the wood spirit route.
3:08:54Manager. Su Chongqing greeted him
3:08:56respectfully as he stepped forward.
3:08:58You've arrived. Old Hua recognized him
3:09:00quickly this time. Su Chongqing nodded
3:09:02and said, "I've come to collect this
3:09:04year's spring seedlings." Upon hearing
3:09:07this, Mr. Hua said with great
3:09:08satisfaction, "It's good to be
3:09:10diligent." In his view, if one's
3:09:12aptitude is lacking and one's
3:09:14comprehension is average, then the only
3:09:16way is to shorten the innate gap between
3:09:19oneself and others through hard work. It
3:09:21greatly admires people like Su
3:09:23Chongqing. Last winter, even knowing
3:09:25that production would be reduced, we
3:09:27still insisted on planting. It can even
3:09:29grow superb quality rice. He is both
3:09:32talented and extremely hardworking,
3:09:34which is truly commendable. Even before
3:09:36the new year is over, people are coming
3:09:38early in the morning to collect spring
3:09:40seedlings. Such Chanqing asked, "May I
3:09:43ask the steward, what if I want to plant
3:09:44other spiritual plants?" Elder Hua
3:09:47countered, "Have you reached the
3:09:48mid-stage ofQi refining?" Su Chongqing
3:09:51was taken aback for a moment, then
3:09:53replied, "It's still a few strands of
3:09:55spiritual energy short." Elder Hua then
3:09:58asked, "Which level of the evergreen
3:10:00technique?" Such Chongqing frowned
3:10:02slightly. Being able to grow top grade
3:10:04spirit rice meant it couldn't be just
3:10:06one level, so he replied, "The third
3:10:08level." Elder Hua shook his head.
3:10:10Although the cultivation technique is of
3:10:12a good level, your cultivation realm is
3:10:15too low. I suggest you continue planting
3:10:17spirit rice. Anyone who reaches the
3:10:19middle stage ofqi refining, you can
3:10:21exchange them for other spiritual plants
3:10:23here. However, old man Hua was unaware
3:10:26of this. The person before me had
3:10:28already reached the mid-stage ofQi
3:10:30refining. Now, we're just one step away
3:10:32from the later stages. Even the
3:10:33evergreen technique isn't just three
3:10:35levels, but a five level technique
3:10:38that's hard to find anyone who can
3:10:39replicate it. Uh, Such Chaning said
3:10:42helplessly. Hua said meaningfully. Here,
3:10:45I can only act according to the rules.
3:10:47Whatever level you reach, that's the
3:10:49kind of spiritual plant you can exchange
3:10:51for. Su Chan blinked. What if I buy
3:10:54seeds from other spiritual farmers? Old
3:10:56Hua turned his face away. I don't care
3:10:58about this and I can't control it. Su
3:11:01Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up immediately.
3:11:03Clearly, Mr. Hua made his point very
3:11:06clearly. Here, you can only follow the
3:11:08rules of the Donging immortal sect, but
3:11:10this will not prevent Lenon from trading
3:11:12in private. In other words, all you need
3:11:14to do is complete the annual tasks. As
3:11:17for where the seedlings and seeds came
3:11:18from, in reality, those above don't care
3:11:21at all. while Lao turned his face again.
3:11:24Let me remind you again. Exchanging for
3:11:26spirit seedlings is free, but if you
3:11:28exchange them for other spirit plants,
3:11:30you will have to deduct points. The
3:11:32rarer and more valuable something is,
3:11:34the more points it consumes. Most
3:11:36spiritual plant seeds on the market can
3:11:38be traded privately. However, the higher
3:11:41quality items are almost all controlled
3:11:43by the Donging immortal sect. Private
3:11:45transactions are not allowed. They even
3:11:47forbade ordinary disciples from planting
3:11:49it. For example, outer disciples can
3:11:52only grow spirit rice. Formal disciples
3:11:55apart from those who cultivate spiritual
3:11:57rice will progress as their cultivation
3:11:59realm and skill level increase. You can
3:12:01unlock more spiritual plants step by
3:12:03step, but they are mostly common types.
3:12:06Only those who reach the core disciple
3:12:07level can cultivate extremely rare and
3:12:10highquality spiritual plants.
3:12:12Understood? Such Chonqing couldn't help
3:12:14but take a deep breath. No wonder the
3:12:16five major powers monopolize resources.
3:12:19It turns out that if the upper beam is
3:12:20crooked, the lower beam will be crooked
3:12:23too. From the management level of the
3:12:24immortal sect down to the middle and
3:12:26lower levels. Layer upon layer of
3:12:29monopoly, layer upon layer of
3:12:31exploitation. He controlled almost all
3:12:33the resources for cultivating
3:12:35immortality. If you want to gain more,
3:12:37you can only improve your cultivation
3:12:39realm and technique level, even class
3:12:41status. Soon, Such Chongqing had
3:12:43collected all the spring seedlings for
3:12:45this year. However, after descending the
3:12:48mountain, he did not head towards the
3:12:49remote spiritual field where he was
3:12:51located. Instead, after going around in
3:12:54circles, he ended up at the door of
3:12:56Jeang Su, a formal disciple. Su
3:12:58Chongqing called out into the room, "Is
3:13:00senior brother Jeang there?" Not long
3:13:02after, a female disciple with a water
3:13:05elemental root walked out of the house
3:13:07directly opposite. Su Chongqing cupped
3:13:09his hands in greeting, "Fellow Daoist."
3:13:12The female disciple with the water
3:13:13elemental root looked him over and
3:13:15asked, "What do you want with senior
3:13:17brotherhang?" Su Chonqing chuckled and
3:13:19said, "I've come to offer my New Year's
3:13:21greetings." The female disciple with the
3:13:24water elemental root nodded slightly.
3:13:26Please wait a moment. Har Junior Brother
3:13:29Su. After about 2 or 3 minutes, Jeang Su
3:13:32walked out of the house laughing.
3:13:33"Senior brother Jeang." Su Chanqing
3:13:35quickly bowed and greeted him. Jang Su
3:13:38smiled and asked, "It's not harvest time
3:13:40yet. Why have you come looking for me,
3:13:42Junior Brother? Su Chonqing understood
3:13:44the meaning behind the other party's
3:13:46words and explained, "There were too
3:13:48many people a few days ago, so I didn't
3:13:50dare to disturb you. I could only come
3:13:52to wish my senior brother a happy new
3:13:53year when there were fewer people."
3:13:55Hearing this, Jang Su<unk>s smile grew
3:13:57even brighter. "It's good that you have
3:13:59this thought. Come in." Only then did he
3:14:02open the fence gate. The two then
3:14:04entered the house step by step. After
3:14:06sitting down, Jeang Su called out, "Come
3:14:08on, serve tea for my junior brother Su."
3:14:10Su Chongqing looked around the room with
3:14:12curiosity and found it to be quite
3:14:14luxurious. The walls are covered with
3:14:16various valuable calligraphy and
3:14:18paintings. Even the meditation cushions
3:14:20used for cultivation were made of spirit
3:14:22stones. Soon the female disciple with
3:14:25the water elemental root who had
3:14:27appeared earlier brought over two cups
3:14:29of hot tea. This tea is also quite
3:14:31special. It was permeated with a faint
3:14:34spiritual aura. Jang Su asked with a
3:14:36smile. Junior brother Su, how is this
3:14:38tea? Good tea? Su Chongqing took a small
3:14:42sip. It has a sweet aftertaste and a
3:14:44lingering fragrance on the lips and
3:14:45teeth. The spiritual energy contained
3:14:48within it even touches my spiritual
3:14:50power. Jang Su said with considerable
3:14:52pride. Of course, this is a century old
3:14:55flower and tree tea. Su Chongqing said
3:14:57with a hint of envy. Senior brother
3:14:59really knows how to enjoy life. Jang Su
3:15:02put down her teacup, leaned back with
3:15:04her bulky body, and said lazily,
3:15:06"Cultivating immortality is no different
3:15:09from being a human. You should eat,
3:15:11drink, and enjoy life as you please." Su
3:15:14Chongqing wholeheartedly agreed. "My
3:15:16senior brother has a clear understanding
3:15:18of life." Jang Su squinted and stared at
3:15:21Su Chongqing for a long time before
3:15:23asking, "Junior Brother Su, you've paid
3:15:25your respect for the new year. Is there
3:15:27anything else?" As the saying goes, one
3:15:29doesn't visit a temple without a reason.
3:15:32Moreover, this is a formal disciple who
3:15:34has only recently joined the core. He
3:15:36was prepared to borrow rice or spirit
3:15:38stones. Su Chongqing hesitated for a
3:15:40moment before saying, "Junior brother
3:15:42wants to buy some seeds, but he doesn't
3:15:44have any channels, so he can only bother
3:15:46senior brother." Jang Su looked slightly
3:15:49surprised. So, you wanted to buy seeds?
3:15:51That's right. Su Chongqing shrugged
3:15:53matterofactly. It's nothing. Jang Su
3:15:56waved his hand slightly awkwardly, then
3:15:58asked, "I wonder what type of seeds or
3:16:00spirit seedlings Junior Brother would
3:16:02like." Su Chongqing shook his head. I'm
3:16:05not quite sure which seeds or seedlings
3:16:07to choose either. Jang Su then asked,
3:16:09"Junior Brother, what is your
3:16:11cultivation level? How many levels have
3:16:13you reached in your cultivation
3:16:14technique?" Approaching the mid-stage
3:16:16ofQi refining, Su Chongqing paused for a
3:16:19moment, then continued, "The Chongqing
3:16:21technique is currently at the third
3:16:23level. the third level of the evergreen
3:16:25technique. Jang Su was quite surprised
3:16:27by this. After all, once you become a
3:16:30full member, you can learn the more
3:16:31advanced with spirit cultivation
3:16:33technique. Few people have elevated the
3:16:36evergreen secret to such a level. This
3:16:38junior brother in front of me really has
3:16:40perseverance. Therefore, Jang Su
3:16:42thoughtfully stroked the stubble on his
3:16:44chin. My cultivation level is a bit low,
3:16:46so there aren't many seeds and spiritual
3:16:48seedlings I can choose from. Considering
3:16:50it's springtime, my senior recommends
3:16:52fourleaf clovers. Four-leaf clover. Su
3:16:55Chonqing had never heard of it before,
3:16:57so he was quite bewildered. Jang Su then
3:17:00explained, "This four-leaf clover is
3:17:02slightly more advanced than spirit rice,
3:17:04barely matching your current cultivation
3:17:06realm and technique level. Of course,
3:17:08the most important thing is that the
3:17:10price isn't expensive." Such Chanin
3:17:12quickly asked, "How much?" Senior
3:17:14brother, you happen to have a batch
3:17:16here. It only costs 10 lowgrade spirit
3:17:18stones. Jang Su took out a large storage
3:17:21bag and quickly took out the seeds of
3:17:23the four-leaf clover. Upon closer
3:17:25inspection, Su Chongqing discovered that
3:17:27these seeds were extremely small. Some
3:17:30of them were even extremely shriveled.
3:17:32Jeang Su curled the corners of her lips.
3:17:34Let me make it clear beforehand. This
3:17:36batch of fourleaf clover seeds has been
3:17:38stored for many years. How many you can
3:17:40grow depends entirely on your own skill
3:17:42and luck. Su Chongqing pretended to
3:17:45think about it. Jang Su did not urge
3:17:47him. We drank tea while waiting. Su
3:17:49Chongqing nodded after a while. Junior
3:17:51brother wants to give it a try. "Very
3:17:53good," Jang Su said with great
3:17:55satisfaction. "If you can really grow
3:17:57it, your senior brother is willing to
3:17:59buy it all at the current market price."
3:18:01Chapter 23. A swarm of carp for the
3:18:04flowing water. The slow bird must fly
3:18:06first. Chapter 23. A swarm of carp
3:18:09fights for the flowing water. A clumsy
3:18:11bird takes the lead. Su Chongqing had
3:18:14just left when the female disciple with
3:18:16the water spirit root immediately
3:18:18appeared. She and Jeang Su stood
3:18:20together watching that receding figure.
3:18:22How many people have asked you to borrow
3:18:24spirit stones or spirit rice? Junior
3:18:26brother Sue has come to buy seeds from
3:18:28me. That's all right. Too many people
3:18:30have been coming to borrow things
3:18:31lately. This is just the beginning.
3:18:33There are still 2 years until the formal
3:18:36disciple grand competition. My god, are
3:18:38we going to have to live like this for
3:18:40another 2 years? The appointed day
3:18:42arrived. The frozen snow has melted.
3:18:45Temperatures are gradually rising.
3:18:47Spring is approaching and everything is
3:18:49coming back to life. Woof woof. The
3:18:51little yellow dog was running around
3:18:53wildly on the ridge of the field. A
3:18:55slightly chilly breeze brushed against
3:18:57Sue Choning<unk>s face. Strands of hair
3:18:59swayed back and forth across her
3:19:01forehead. His gaze remained fixed on the
3:19:03newly sprouting weeds at his feet. It is
3:19:05said that ducks are the first to know
3:19:07when the river warms in spring. But
3:19:09these weeds are the prophets who know
3:19:11best that spring is coming. Woof woof.
3:19:13The little yellow dog barked twice more,
3:19:16sounding quite shrill. Hey, senior
3:19:18brother Sue, why are you raising a dog?
3:19:20Han Su<unk>s voice followed. Su
3:19:22Chongqing raised his head, looked in the
3:19:24direction of the sound, and smiled. I
3:19:26raised it during the new year, but you
3:19:28just didn't see it. Han Su scratched his
3:19:30head, looking at this little guy bearing
3:19:33his teeth. He won't bite me, will he? Su
3:19:36Chongqing was both amused and
3:19:37exasperated. You, a disciple with an
3:19:40earth elemental root, have the best
3:19:42defense, yet you're afraid of being
3:19:44bitten by a dog. Just kidding, Hanu
3:19:47grinned. Su Chonin pointed to the grade
3:19:49two spirit field in front of him and
3:19:51said, "It's frozen solid. I wonder if
3:19:54you can finish it in one go." Hansu
3:19:56nimly took off his shoes, then stepped
3:19:58onto the frozen black soil, feeling the
3:20:00chilling aura emanating from below, and
3:20:03frowned, saying, "This second grade
3:20:05spirit field is indeed different from a
3:20:07first grade spirit field. How is it?" Su
3:20:10Chongqing raised an eyebrow. "If it's
3:20:12not good enough, we<unk>ll find someone
3:20:13else." "Senior brother Su is looking
3:20:16down on me." "Junior brother is a formal
3:20:18disciple after all." Han Su<unk>s
3:20:20expression changed upon hearing this,
3:20:22showing some dissatisfaction. Su
3:20:24Chongqing replied earnestly. I only care
3:20:26about output. Loosening the soil,
3:20:29fertilizing, raining, and pest control.
3:20:31This is the same process for almost
3:20:33every planting. Unfortunately, it is all
3:20:36related to the final output. So, it
3:20:38cannot be ignored. If Han Su hadn't only
3:20:40collected 50 caddies of second grade
3:20:42spirit rise per quarter, he would have
3:20:44been replaced long ago. I will do my
3:20:46best and never let my senior brother
3:20:48down, Han Su promised through gritted
3:20:50teeth. Okay. Such Chanqing didn't waste
3:20:53any more words. Hanu took a deep breath
3:20:56and then activated the earth guidance
3:20:57technique. It felt as if a valve had
3:21:00been opened in my body. The earth's
3:21:02energy surged in instantly. But this
3:21:04time was different. It was mixed with an
3:21:06extreme chill. Bang. Bang. Bang. As the
3:21:09ground continued to shake, it felt as if
3:21:12earth dragons were burrowing through the
3:21:13soil. The black soil, which had been
3:21:16frozen solid, first cracked open, then
3:21:18it flips over suddenly, revealing the
3:21:20soft part underneath. As time went by,
3:21:23most of the soil in Linton was loosened.
3:21:25Strangely, Han Su's expression grew
3:21:28increasingly strange. Normally, after
3:21:30circulating the Earth guidance
3:21:32technique, for a period of time, the
3:21:34skin will turn yellowish brown. But this
3:21:36time, it was extremely modeled with
3:21:38patches of white spots of varying sizes
3:21:40appearing. After realizing what had
3:21:42happened, Su Chongqing asked with
3:21:44concern, "Are you all right? I feel so
3:21:46cold." Han Su shivered uncontrollably.
3:21:49Such Chanqing quickly waved his hand.
3:21:51"You should stop and rest first." Upon
3:21:54hearing this, Han Su did not stubbornly
3:21:56insist and immediately climbed up the
3:21:58ridge of the field. The physical
3:22:00condition only improved after the earth
3:22:02guiding technique was interrupted. Even
3:22:04so, her face still looked terrible. A
3:22:07faint chill emanated from his body. Is
3:22:09it because your magic hasn't reached the
3:22:11second level? Su Chanqing guessed. Han
3:22:14Su was stunned and after several
3:22:15seconds, he asked in shock. How did you
3:22:18know, senior brother? Seeing the other
3:22:20party's reaction, Su Chonqing
3:22:22immediately understood. Because magic is
3:22:24very important. Each level has different
3:22:27or even better effects. Take myself as
3:22:29an example. Different levels of the I
3:22:31evergreen technique have different
3:22:33effects. Once you reach level five, you
3:22:36will definitely be able to grow top
3:22:37quality spirit rice. If that's the case,
3:22:40then the spells the other party
3:22:41cultivates must be the same. Soon, Han
3:22:44Su took a deep breath, trying to calm
3:22:46himself down, and continued. As long as
3:22:48I reach the mid-stage ofQi refining, I
3:22:51can go deep into the earth veins again.
3:22:53At that time, with the help of the
3:22:54earth's energy, I will definitely be
3:22:56able to raise my cultivation of the
3:22:58earth guiding technique to the second
3:23:00level. This is why he so desperately
3:23:02needs Layme. Earth veins, earth energy,
3:23:05Such Chan asked slightly puzzled. Seeing
3:23:08this, Han Su explained, "If we disciples
3:23:10with earth spirit roots want to improve
3:23:12our strength, we must repeatedly venture
3:23:15deep into the earth's veins to find deep
3:23:17earth energy to temper our bodies." Su
3:23:20Chongqing exclaimed in surprise, "The
3:23:22body will just become a vessel." Han Su
3:23:25revealed a hint of envy in his eyes.
3:23:27Unlike you with spirit roots, we earth
3:23:29spirit roots only have two and a half
3:23:31ways to become core disciples. First,
3:23:34those with low comprehension can
3:23:36practice body cultivation, absorbing a
3:23:38wisp of yellow energy through their
3:23:40bodies. Second, those with high
3:23:42comprehension can become array masters,
3:23:44continuously enhancing their spiritual
3:23:46power. What about the remaining half? Su
3:23:49Chongqing asked curiously. Han Su smiled
3:23:52Riley and said, "I will participate in
3:23:54the formal disciple grand competition."
3:23:57Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing<unk>s
3:23:58lips twitched several times. The entire
3:24:01Donging immortal sect has tens of
3:24:03thousands of disciples. The number of
3:24:05formal disciples participating in the
3:24:07formal disciple competition is as
3:24:09numerous as karp crossing a river.
3:24:11Standing out is more than just
3:24:13difficult. I have low comprehension, so
3:24:15I can only use the most rudimentary
3:24:17method. Han Su<unk>s face was full of
3:24:19helplessness. Su Chonqing reached out
3:24:21and patted his shoulder, comforting him.
3:24:24With your hard work, you'll definitely
3:24:26succeed. Han Su said wistfully. I wonder
3:24:29when I'll be able to absorb even a wisp
3:24:31of yellow energy. Su Chongqing asked in
3:24:33surprise. I've only ever heard of Shin
3:24:35Huang Chi. What is this, Hong Chi? Han
3:24:38Su thought for a while before saying,
3:24:40seemingly understanding, it is said to
3:24:42be a relatively highle earth energy. It
3:24:45is not invisible, but rather a yellow
3:24:47mist floating in the Earth's veins. A
3:24:49wisp of yellow mist weighing 10,000 lb
3:24:53is one of the high-grade materials for
3:24:54forging spiritual weapons and magical
3:24:57artifacts. Su Chongqing suddenly
3:24:59realized since they had nothing better
3:25:01to do. The two chatted for a long time.
3:25:03Then I learned that Han Su had a
3:25:05miserable childhood. Originally, he came
3:25:07from a decent family, not extremely
3:25:09wealthy, but still quite well off.
3:25:12However, because the father offended a
3:25:14villain, the whole family was framed.
3:25:16The father died after being humiliated
3:25:18and the mother hanged herself in grief
3:25:20and indignation. He managed to escape by
3:25:23crawling through a dog hole. From then
3:25:25on, he wandered from place to place.
3:25:27Years later, while sheltering from the
3:25:29rain in a dilapitated temple, I met an
3:25:32old Tauist priest. Seeing that Han Su
3:25:34had the potential to cultivate
3:25:36immortality, the other party introduced
3:25:38him to the sect. Unexpectedly, it turned
3:25:40out to be the legendary Donging immortal
3:25:43sect. Su Chongqing couldn't help but
3:25:45sigh. That's fate. Han Su said
3:25:48apologetically, "Senior brother Su, this
3:25:50time it was my fault. I'm sorry." Su
3:25:52Chongqing chuckled and said, "No, we've
3:25:55already taken care of most of it." Han
3:25:57Su could still feel the intense chill
3:25:59emanating from his body, but I can't
3:26:01help you for now. Su Chan took out a
3:26:04daily magical artifact hoe from his
3:26:06small storage bag. You rest first. I'll
3:26:08just try out this new hoe and see how it
3:26:10works. Han Su<unk>s eyes instantly
3:26:12welled up with tears. Senior brother
3:26:14Sue, I He could only choke back tears
3:26:17before he could finish speaking. He
3:26:19selfishly thought that senior brother
3:26:20Sue was a very pragmatic person. But it
3:26:23was only after this exchange that I
3:26:25realized they overestimated themselves
3:26:27and underestimated others. Chapter 24.
3:26:30Reaching the late stage ofqi refining.
3:26:32Production reaches its maximum. Chapter
3:26:3524. Reaching the late stage ofqi
3:26:37refining. Maximizing production. Han Su
3:26:39finally completed the loosening of the
3:26:41soil. Although I had to take several
3:26:43breaks during that time, I persevered to
3:26:45the end. Such Chanqing did not add any
3:26:48extra spirit rice despite the other
3:26:50party's poor health. Whatever amount was
3:26:52agreed upon beforehand, that's what it
3:26:54will be. They were neither kind-hearted
3:26:56nor soft-hearted. People should be
3:26:58realistic. With the soil loosened in
3:27:00this acre of grade 2 spiritual field,
3:27:02all that's left is to wait for spring.
3:27:05Why choose the day at the beginning of
3:27:06spring? Once spring arrives, everything
3:27:09begins to grow. There will be an
3:27:11explosion of spiritual energy between
3:27:13heaven and earth. It is called the
3:27:15spiritual tide. This day is of utmost
3:27:17importance to all disciples with the
3:27:19wood spirit root. At that time with the
3:27:22help of the planted spiritual plants, we
3:27:24can absorb more wood spiritual energy.
3:27:26Such chonqing was also prepared to break
3:27:28through to the late stage ofqi refining.
3:27:30On the day of spring, time passed day by
3:27:33day and spring arrived with blooming
3:27:35flowers. The wind brought warmth and
3:27:37coolness. Everything returned to normal.
3:27:39As the time approached the early morning
3:27:41of the beginning of spring before dawn,
3:27:44Su Chonqing was already standing on the
3:27:46edge of the field. He then took the
3:27:48spring seedlings he had received out of
3:27:50his small storage bag. But this time, he
3:27:52didn't take his usual magical tool, the
3:27:54hoe, and bend down to start planting.
3:27:57Instead, he used strands of spiritual
3:27:59energy within his body to wrap around
3:28:01these spring seedlings before throwing
3:28:03them out. Upon landing, take advantage
3:28:05of the powerful effect of entanglement,
3:28:08three layers. It controlled all the
3:28:10spiritual plants within a ting jang
3:28:12radius to burrow into the turned up
3:28:14black soil. This is the benefit of
3:28:16improving one's cultivation realm and
3:28:18spell level. However, a small area was
3:28:21left unplanted and no spring seedlings
3:28:23were planted there. Instead, I bought
3:28:25fourleaf clover seeds from Jeang Su. Su
3:28:28Chonqing wanted to see how much profit
3:28:30these 10 low-grade spirit stones could
3:28:31bring. As time passed, the east began to
3:28:34lighten with the first light of dawn.
3:28:36The faint golden light resembled a
3:28:38slowly opening umbrella. The sky was
3:28:40getting brighter and brighter.
3:28:42Instantly, the spiritual energy
3:28:44circulating in the world doubled at an
3:28:46extremely rapid pace. Finally, it's
3:28:48here. Such Chanqing hurriedly sat
3:28:51cross-legged on the edge of the field.
3:28:53The moment when the sun rises completely
3:28:55and the whole world is reborn, an even
3:28:58richer spiritual energy of heaven and
3:29:00earth like an invisible tide. It was as
3:29:02if it had been pre-arranged, but it
3:29:04suddenly erupted. Immediately, the
3:29:06spring seedlings in the spiritual field
3:29:08grew at a speed visible to the naked
3:29:10eye. Even some of the fourleaf clover
3:29:12seeds have begun to sprout. They drew
3:29:15large amounts of wood elemental energy
3:29:17to the vicinity of the spirit field
3:29:19where they greedily absorbed it. Su
3:29:21Chongqing, enveloped by a massive amount
3:29:23of wood elemental energy, was extremely
3:29:26excited. He took out the remaining first
3:29:28grade spirit rice wine. Without
3:29:30hesitation, I poured it into my mouth.
3:29:32Then he activated the evergreen
3:29:34technique. Instantly, cultivation speed
3:29:36increased by 50%. Within 1 hour, the
3:29:39speed of spiritual energy absorption
3:29:41increases by 20%. With such a terrifying
3:29:44dual effect, before long, the spiritual
3:29:47energy changed from seven strands to
3:29:49eight strands. And there was no sign of
3:29:51stopping. Instead, it continues to grow
3:29:54stronger, eventually transforming into
3:29:56nine strands. This means that we are
3:29:59just one step away from the late stage
3:30:01ofQi refining. I don't want to stay in
3:30:03the mid-stage ofQi refining for another
3:30:05second breakthrough. Such Chonqing
3:30:07roared. After all, the higher one's
3:30:10level of understanding, the greater
3:30:11one's sense of security. A continuous
3:30:14stream of wood elemental energy flowed
3:30:16into the body under the guidance of the
3:30:18wood elemental root. At that moment, he
3:30:20seemed to hear the sound of rushing
3:30:22water. under such a frenzied impact. The
3:30:25spiritual energy within the body
3:30:26underwent changes. At first, it kept
3:30:29wandering around as if it were trying to
3:30:31escape. However, as the spiritual energy
3:30:34within the body becomes more abundant,
3:30:36the range becomes narrower and narrower.
3:30:39With nowhere to escape, the nine strands
3:30:41of spiritual energy had no choice but to
3:30:43intertwine, and the space is being
3:30:45compressed even further. There was no
3:30:48other way but for them to begin merging
3:30:49with each other. After an unknown amount
3:30:51of time, Su Chongqing suddenly took a
3:30:54deep breath. Then thick white mist
3:30:56gushed out from his mouth and nose. With
3:30:58a pop, the nine strands of spiritual
3:31:01energy within his body completely
3:31:03merged. It transformed into a thick,
3:31:05strong strip. Then all the remaining
3:31:08spiritual energy in the body converged
3:31:10towards this spiritual power. The
3:31:12surface becomes increasingly crystal
3:31:14clear. His body became increasingly
3:31:16agile. At first glance, it doesn't seem
3:31:19to be a spiritual force. It was a loach.
3:31:21Once there are no more restrictions or
3:31:23obstacles, it begins to roam freely
3:31:25within the body. More and more black
3:31:27impurities seeped out from Sue
3:31:29Choning<unk>s pores. But it
3:31:31automatically slides off the clothes as
3:31:32soon as it touches them, and it can't
3:31:34get dirty at all. It turns out that the
3:31:36clothes worn by formal disciples have
3:31:38the effect of warting off dust and
3:31:40removing dirt. Finally, I've broken
3:31:42through. Su Chongqing opened his eyes,
3:31:45his gaze shining brightly. Then I looked
3:31:47at the properties panel. Su Chonqing,
3:31:50male, 19 years old. Remaining lifespan
3:31:5343,769
3:31:56days. Wood spirit root. Late stage ofQi
3:31:59refining. Effect one, increased stamina.
3:32:02Effect two, enhancedqi and blood. Effect
3:32:05three, improved physical fitness.
3:32:07Evergreen technique level five. Lingi
3:32:10wine expert with spirit entanglement
3:32:13third layer. After breaking through the
3:32:15realm, his lifespan was increased by 20
3:32:17years. He reached the late stage ofQi
3:32:20refining in just half a year after
3:32:22joining the core area of the spirit
3:32:24field. Even though they've only just
3:32:26entered this realm, their speed is
3:32:28already very fast. After all, neither
3:32:30Linn and nor Xiao Xao and the others had
3:32:33reached the mid-stage ofQi refining. Of
3:32:35course, this is thanks to the spiritual
3:32:37energy tied between heaven and earth.
3:32:40The two of them may also make a
3:32:42breakthrough. Even so, a huge gap still
3:32:44exists. Su Chongqing<unk>s heart
3:32:46stirred, and he deliberately sensed his
3:32:48surroundings. To my surprise, when the
3:32:50cultivation level reached the late stage
3:32:52ofQi refining, the original sensing
3:32:55range of Ten Jang has actually doubled.
3:32:57It reached 20 Jang, approximately 33 m.
3:33:01It is approximately 66 m. The strength
3:33:04of this spiritual power within the body
3:33:06is almost the sum of the previous nine
3:33:08strands and nine threads. He couldn't
3:33:11help but activate the would spirit
3:33:13entanglement technique level three. The
3:33:15surrounding weeds immediately became
3:33:17active, swaying constantly. Then with a
3:33:20series of whoosh sounds, they evolved
3:33:22one after another. In an instant, it
3:33:24transformed into 10 thick black iron
3:33:27vines. However, this time only one/tenth
3:33:30of the spiritual power was consumed.
3:33:32When the black iron vines reach 20, it
3:33:34was only two nights complete. This shows
3:33:37that even if there are more than 50, the
3:33:39spiritual energy will not be exhausted.
3:33:41Faced with such astonishing results, Su
3:33:44Chongqing<unk>s eyes shone with an eerie
3:33:46light. With a wave of his hand, all the
3:33:48black iron vines withered. He did not
3:33:50get up, but continued to cultivate.
3:33:53After all, the spiritual energy in this
3:33:55world, especially the wood spiritual
3:33:57energy, the content is far too high.
3:34:00It's impossible to finish it all.
3:34:01There's simply no way to finish it all.
3:34:03Even if one cannot reach the foundation
3:34:06establishment stage, at least one's
3:34:08spiritual power can be increased. For
3:34:10seven whole days, I barely rested. Apart
3:34:12from preparing food for the little
3:34:14yellow dog, he devoted himself entirely
3:34:16to cultivation. In addition, there's the
3:34:19cultivation speed of the five layers of
3:34:21the evergreen technique and the rate at
3:34:23which expert grade spirit rice wine
3:34:25absorbs spiritual energy. After finally
3:34:28cultivating three streams of spiritual
3:34:30power, the growth slowed down. Hey,
3:34:32Laauo Su, were you waiting for me this
3:34:34early in the morning? Hubu asked,
3:34:36looking at him with surprise as he led
3:34:38the spirit beast camel. More or less, Su
3:34:41Choning blinked. This touched Hubu
3:34:43deeply, and he quickly said, "Next time,
3:34:46I'll come here first and then go
3:34:48somewhere else." A sly glint flashed in
3:34:51Su Choning<unk>s eyes. It settled then.
3:34:53While unloading the excrement, Hubui
3:34:56said, "This time the excrement is very
3:34:58fresh." Su Chongqing stepped closer to
3:35:00take a look and found that it was indeed
3:35:02true. The last time the stool was
3:35:04relatively dry and had a musty foul
3:35:06odor. This time it was not only round
3:35:09and plump, but also very moist. The
3:35:11flavor has a fresh herbal aroma. It
3:35:14looks very fresh, completely different
3:35:16from the previous ones. But this time,
3:35:18Su Chan wasn't just buying spirit beast
3:35:21excrement to use as fertilizer. He also
3:35:23needs to invite a formal disciple with a
3:35:25water elemental root to perform the
3:35:27minor cloud rain technique. Maximize the
3:35:30yield of this acre of grade two spirit
3:35:32field to reap a huge harvest. Chapter
3:35:3525. Many secrets. Keeping a low profile
3:35:38is the key to success. Chapter 25. There
3:35:41are many secrets. Only by keeping a low
3:35:43profile can you win. After unloading the
3:35:46spirit beast's excrement, Hubuga did not
3:35:49make a direct offer. Instead, he opened
3:35:51his mouth, seemingly wanting to say
3:35:53something but holding back. Su Chonqing
3:35:56asked in confusion. What? Hubui chuckled
3:35:59dryly. Can I? No, I mean make an
3:36:02investment. Huh? Such Choning<unk>s eyes
3:36:04widened. Hubuay said helplessly. There
3:36:07are still 2 years until the official
3:36:09disciple competition. During this
3:36:11period, the prices of various resources
3:36:13will continue to rise. It's not enough
3:36:15to just sell manure to make a living. Su
3:36:18Chonqing suddenly realized. You want to
3:36:20use the excrement of spirit beasts to
3:36:22invest in my second grade spirit field.
3:36:24Yes, yes, yes. Hubuay nodded vigorously.
3:36:28Such Chonqing couldn't help but ponder
3:36:29it. Fertilizing rice does indeed
3:36:32increase yield. This was tested last
3:36:34winter. If Hubuay could provide
3:36:36long-term investment, the benefits would
3:36:38definitely outweigh the drawbacks. The
3:36:40question is, how much does the other
3:36:42party intend to take? This is the key
3:36:44point. If it's too little, the other
3:36:46party definitely won't agree. But there
3:36:48are too many and I don't agree to that.
3:36:50Hubuay seemed to have seen through his
3:36:52thoughts. So he immediately said, "If
3:36:55you only want the excrement of the
3:36:56100-year-old spirit beast, then I will
3:36:58take one/10enth of the total output.
3:37:01That is 100 divided among a,000." 200
3:37:05gene were taken from the 2,000 gene. Of
3:37:07course, the part about submitting tasks
3:37:09must be subtracted. You have even better
3:37:12spirit beast droppings. Su Chonqing
3:37:14asked in surprise. Upon hearing this,
3:37:16Hubuay patted his chest and said, "I
3:37:19have some connections in this area. I
3:37:21can even get the excrement of spirit
3:37:23beasts that are 500 or even a thousand
3:37:25years old." Su Chonqing thought for a
3:37:28moment and said, "How about this? Let's
3:37:30try it out in the spring first. If
3:37:32everyone is satisfied, we can continue
3:37:34our cooperation later." Hubui's eyes lit
3:37:37up. No problem. In this way, Su
3:37:39Chongqing obtained enough spirit beast
3:37:41dung to cover the entire spirit field.
3:37:44Afterwards, as long as one to 200
3:37:46caddies of grade two spiritual rice are
3:37:48produced, it will not be considered a
3:37:50breach of contract. The reason Hubuay
3:37:53asked for so little was because a
3:37:54cunning rabbit has three burrows. He
3:37:57didn't just invest in Su Chonqing. In
3:37:59fact, we saw collaborations with many
3:38:01Lingome partners. To put it bluntly,
3:38:03they've gone from being mere feces
3:38:05dealers to feces suppliers. You might
3:38:08lose money at first, but you could make
3:38:09a lot of money later. The only loss is
3:38:12the excrement that the spirit beast
3:38:14produces every day. But for Lingong,
3:38:16this was a good thing to increase
3:38:18production. Therefore, even Su Chongqing
3:38:20couldn't help but be tempted. After
3:38:22fertilizing all the spiritual plants in
3:38:25the spiritual field without hesitation,
3:38:27Su Chongqing turned and walked towards
3:38:29the core management office. Now that
3:38:31we've started, we can't waste any more
3:38:33time. We must seize every opportunity.
3:38:36Let's just issue the rainfall task now.
3:38:38Find a formal disciple with a water
3:38:40elemental route to perform the minor
3:38:42cloud rain technique. Actually, there is
3:38:45another option. That means finding a
3:38:47dowist partner with a water elemental
3:38:49route. This way, you don't need to post
3:38:51tasks and wait for others to help you.
3:38:54The problem is that Su Chongqing has too
3:38:56many secrets that cannot be easily
3:38:58revealed. If others knew that a newly
3:39:00joined spirit farmer could produce a
3:39:01yield from an acre of spirit field that
3:39:03was comparable to or even exceeded those
3:39:06of foundation establishment stage
3:39:08cultivators, the results would be quite
3:39:10different. This will definitely cause a
3:39:12sensation and may even attract the
3:39:14attention of the immortals. Attributing
3:39:16it solely to talent is a stretch. After
3:39:19all, Such Chonqing only succeeded on his
3:39:21third attempt in the external
3:39:22assessment. Therefore, one must first
3:39:25raise one's cultivation level to a
3:39:27certain height before considering this
3:39:28matter. Just like last time, post the
3:39:31task and fill in the reward. Afterwards,
3:39:33I received a notification talisman.
3:39:35Next, all you need to do is wait
3:39:37patiently. The next day arrived quickly,
3:39:40and Su Chongqing had just finished
3:39:42breakfast. The talisman on his body
3:39:44vibrated and began to flash. This means
3:39:46that a disciple with a water elemental
3:39:48route has already accepted the mission
3:39:50and is on their way. Such Chongqing
3:39:52wasn't in a hurry. He first cultivated
3:39:54on the ridge of the field, absorbing the
3:39:56woods spiritual energy. Then it chased
3:39:59the little yellow dog all over the place
3:40:01until the dog was so tired that it stuck
3:40:03out its tongue. Finally, the talisman
3:40:05began to flash faster and faster. Such
3:40:08Chonqing had assumed the other party
3:40:10would come over. Unexpectedly, I found
3:40:12myself stepping on the back of a flying
3:40:14paper crane. Such Chongqing looked up
3:40:16and saw a female disciple with a water
3:40:19elemental root. She has a rather
3:40:21innocent and pure appearance. Her large
3:40:23eyes were particularly eye-catching. Is
3:40:25this fellow Daist Su? Came the voice
3:40:28from above. Su Chongqing replied. I am
3:40:30Su Chongqing. And who is this fellow
3:40:32Dowist? My name is Binger and I am a
3:40:35formal disciple with the water elemental
3:40:37route who has accepted your rainfall
3:40:39mission. At the same time, the flying
3:40:42paper crane above slowly descended.
3:40:44Whoosh! Binger jumped down and then it
3:40:47was a little awkward. Su Chongqing went
3:40:49from looking up to looking down.
3:40:51Bilinger tilted her head back and stood
3:40:53on her tiptoes. Seeing that the other
3:40:55person only reached his chest, Su
3:40:57Chongqing couldn't help but laugh and
3:40:59ask, "Didn't your parents come along?"
3:41:01Binger said indignantly, "This is the
3:41:04mission I was given. What are my parents
3:41:06doing here?" Su Chongqing had meant it
3:41:08as a joke, but upon hearing this, he was
3:41:10taken aback for a moment and then
3:41:12tentatively asked, "Are your parents
3:41:14also in the Imperial Water Pavilion?"
3:41:16Binger nodded slightly. My father is a
3:41:19talisman master of the Imperial Water
3:41:21Pavilion. Oh ho. Such Choning<unk>s
3:41:24smile vanished instantly and his
3:41:26attitude became even more polite. Thank
3:41:28you for your help, fellow Daist. By good
3:41:31grief, this is someone we can't mess
3:41:33with. Although he had never been to the
3:41:35Imperial Water Pavilion, but they also
3:41:37knew that the status of a talisman
3:41:38master was not low. If I offend by
3:41:40Linger with my words and her parents
3:41:42come knocking on my door, that would be
3:41:44bad. Therefore, it's best to be honest.
3:41:47All right. Binger turned around and
3:41:49faced the spirit field. Activate the
3:41:51lesser cloud rain technique level two.
3:41:53She waved her little hand. The water
3:41:56elemental energy in the air ahead
3:41:58quickly gathered. A layer of mist formed
3:42:00above the spirit field in no time.
3:42:02Moreover, the fog appeared to be
3:42:04somewhat black. It seems to be evolving
3:42:06into a real dark cloud. Su Chongqing
3:42:09raised an eyebrow thinking to himself. I
3:42:11saw him once before on the outskirts and
3:42:14he's not even in the same league as this
3:42:15one. It seems Binger has quite a bit of
3:42:18talent. Splash. The sound of rain began.
3:42:21A dense rain of spiritual energy fell
3:42:23covering most of the spiritual field.
3:42:26Moments later, the spiritual plants that
3:42:28had received the rain were noticeably
3:42:30more robust. It has a layer of dewy skin
3:42:32covering both the top and bottom. Done.
3:42:35Binger seemed very relaxed. This is the
3:42:38reward. 20 low-grade spirit stones. Such
3:42:41Chongqing decisively took out the money.
3:42:43The reason for using spirit stones. The
3:42:45main purpose is to create the illusion
3:42:47for others that one does not have any
3:42:49spiritual rice. In this way, no
3:42:52suspicion will be aroused. After all,
3:42:54the price of Lingi has skyrocketed.
3:42:56Binker took the spirit stone, then took
3:42:58out a spirit talisman. This is my
3:43:01communication talisman. Just say the
3:43:03word if you need help, and you won't
3:43:04need to issue a mission. Okay. Su
3:43:07Chongqing carefully took it. I'm
3:43:09leaving. Binger jumped onto the flying
3:43:11paper crane and then quickly departed.
3:43:13Su Chongqing breathed a sigh of relief
3:43:15only after he could no longer see her.
3:43:17Luckily, she's young and didn't
3:43:19understand what she just said.
3:43:21Otherwise, I would have been in trouble.
3:43:23Then he turned his attention to the
3:43:24spirit field. Now the soil loosening,
3:43:27fertilization, and rainfall have been
3:43:29completed. Barring any unforeseen
3:43:31circumstances, production will
3:43:33definitely surge this time. It could
3:43:35even exceed 3,000 gene. Chapter 26.
3:43:38Senior brother invites me. Golden core
3:43:40is divided into three grades. Chapter
3:43:4326. My senior brother invited me. The
3:43:45golden core is divided into three
3:43:47grades. In the days that followed,
3:43:49everything became cyclical. Cooking,
3:43:51cultivating, walking the dog and tending
3:43:54to the spiritual field. Day after day,
3:43:56every single day is the same. If it were
3:43:58someone else, they might not be able to
3:44:00stand the loneliness. But every time Su
3:44:02Chongqing saw the rice seedlings and the
3:44:04spiritual field becoming more and more
3:44:06robust, he would be amazed. You will
3:44:09feel incredibly happy. As he continued
3:44:11to cultivate, the spiritual energy
3:44:13within his body increased to four
3:44:15strands. At this moment, he stood on the
3:44:18edge of the field and my feet was a
3:44:20slightly larger little yellow dog.
3:44:21Looking at the four-leaf clover growing
3:44:23quietly in the corner, I couldn't help
3:44:25but raise an eyebrow. Jeang clearly said
3:44:28four-leaf clover. But nowadays, most of
3:44:31them only have one leaf. This situation
3:44:33is clearly not right. After all, the
3:44:35fertilizer has already been applied. The
3:44:37rain has already fallen. When it was
3:44:39planted, it was specially wrapped with
3:44:41spiritual energy. Logically, they should
3:44:44have grown up normally. However, the
3:44:46current situation is quite mixed. Most
3:44:48of them are green leaves. A few or two
3:44:50pieces, but let alone four pieces, there
3:44:53weren't even three. Is it due to a long
3:44:55growth cycle, or is there something I've
3:44:57overlooked? Su Chonqing said
3:44:59confidently. There is absolutely no
3:45:01problem with the nutrition. Woof woof.
3:45:03Just then, the little yellow dog at my
3:45:05feet started barking at the other side.
3:45:08Hearing the noise, Su Chongqing couldn't
3:45:10help but turn his head. A person is
3:45:12walking towards us from a distance. But
3:45:14the person who came was not Hubu. It
3:45:16wasn't Lin or Xiao Xiao either. You
3:45:19would never have guessed. It turned out
3:45:20to be Lee Sani. It was senior brother
3:45:23Lee who had helped him many times on the
3:45:24outskirts of the spirit field. What
3:45:26brings you here, senior brother? Such
3:45:28Chongqing hurriedly stepped forward to
3:45:30greet him. Li Sanankai looked around and
3:45:32said with a smile, my task of guarding
3:45:35the outer perimeter has been completed,
3:45:37so I'm returning to the core area. Su
3:45:39Chonqing<unk>s eyes lit up. Great.
3:45:41Senior brother, please give me a seat.
3:45:43I'll pay you a visit next time. Li Kai
3:45:46took out a communication talisman and
3:45:47handed it over, then explained, "Last
3:45:50time at the Red Maple Valley Market. I
3:45:52didn't mean to ignore you, but my cousin
3:45:54had something important to do and
3:45:56couldn't delay. Cousin Su Choning took
3:45:58the communication talisman and exclaimed
3:46:00in realization. Leing is actually my
3:46:03senior brother's cousin. Li Sanankai
3:46:06nodded slightly. As you know, the prices
3:46:08of all kinds of resources have been
3:46:10soaring in the past 2 years. Whether
3:46:12it's spiritual plants or spiritual
3:46:14artifacts, even the rewards for missions
3:46:16are much higher than before. Su Chonqing
3:46:19wholeheartedly agreed. That's right. I
3:46:21just spent 20 low-grade spirit stones to
3:46:23hire someone to bring rain. The two
3:46:25walked along the ridge of the field and
3:46:27Li Sanankai continued precisely because
3:46:30my cousin is a core disciple. His demand
3:46:32for various resources is increasing.
3:46:35Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
3:46:37pondered, "Could it be that this factor
3:46:38is also involved in senior brothers
3:46:40return this time?" Li Sanankai revealed
3:46:43an appreciative look. I came here
3:46:45specifically to see you. Firstly, to
3:46:47confirm our position and secondly to
3:46:49discuss cooperation. cooperation. Su
3:46:52Chongqing was very surprised, but at the
3:46:54same time extremely delighted. A
3:46:56fourleaf clover. Liisai's eyes lit up as
3:46:59he looked at the thriving spirit rice,
3:47:01but he paused for a moment when he saw
3:47:02the spirit plant in the other corner.
3:47:05Such Chongqing grinned. Yes, fourleaf
3:47:07clover. Leankai suddenly revealed a
3:47:10playful expression. Your ability to grow
3:47:12fourleaf clovers is quite surprising to
3:47:14your senior brother, but didn't the
3:47:16person who sold you the seeds explain
3:47:17how to grow them? Su Chongqing<unk>s
3:47:20heart skipped a beat when he saw the
3:47:21other person's expression, and he
3:47:23quickly shook his head and said, "No, I
3:47:25thought it was the same as the
3:47:27cultivation method of spirit rice." Li
3:47:29Sanankai couldn't help but sneer. This
3:47:31four-leaf clover has a high demand for
3:47:33water, so even if you want to plant it,
3:47:35you have to find a place with plenty of
3:47:37water, otherwise it will compete with
3:47:39your spirit rice for water. Su Chongqing
3:47:42shook his head. But there is nothing
3:47:43wrong with the spiritual rice I planted.
3:47:46I sense it once a day. Moreover, when
3:47:48the I evergreen technique reaches level
3:47:50five, this allows one to sense all the
3:47:53conditions of the spiritual plants in
3:47:54advance. Lienkai looked like he knew
3:47:57everything. First, because you have a
3:47:59lot of spiritual rice. Second, there is
3:48:02a problem with the fourleaf clover
3:48:03seeds. Thirdly, I think your evergreen
3:48:06technique should have improved by now. I
3:48:08see. Su Chongqing neither confirmed nor
3:48:11denied it. Seeing this, Li Sanankai
3:48:13didn't press the matter. Instead, he
3:48:15pointed to the spot where the four-leaf
3:48:17clover was planted and said, "Next time,
3:48:19you can dig a ditch next to it, and that
3:48:21will do." Su Chongqing sighed. "I never
3:48:24expected to be helped by my senior
3:48:26brother again. I can never repay this
3:48:28kindness," Li said, both amused and
3:48:31exasperated. "It's nothing. Many things
3:48:33are reciprocal." Although the other
3:48:35party did not acknowledge whether the
3:48:37evergreen technique had improved, but
3:48:39that's not the point. After all, more
3:48:41than half a year has passed. Even with
3:48:43poor aptitude, one can still improve
3:48:46little by little. Moreover, judging from
3:48:48the current growth of the spiritual
3:48:49rice, the yield is definitely not low.
3:48:52By the way, what does senior brother
3:48:54want to collaborate with me on? Such
3:48:55Chanqing was very curious about this.
3:48:57Lance Sai smile faded and he said,
3:49:00"Seriously, my cousin Leing plans to
3:49:02break through to the Earth Golden Core
3:49:04within 10 years, so he needs a lot of
3:49:06resources." Such Chongqing couldn't help
3:49:09but change the subject. What is a great
3:49:11Earth golden core? Le Sanankai replied,
3:49:13"There are three grades of golden
3:49:15elixir, human, earth, and heaven. The
3:49:18human character golden elixir is the
3:49:20worst type of golden elixir. Both in
3:49:22terms of magical strength and the power
3:49:24of the spell, it is the weakest.
3:49:26However, most golden core cultivators
3:49:28are actually golden core cultivators
3:49:30with high moral character. This involves
3:49:32many reasons. One is qualifications. The
3:49:35other is resources. A grade Earth golden
3:49:37elixir can completely overwhelm a grade
3:49:39human golden elixir. However, to achieve
3:49:42the desired quality, a large amount of
3:49:44resources are required. Moreover, they
3:49:46also have to go out and hunt down
3:49:48ancient monsters to obtain their core
3:49:50parts. Strengthen your spiritual route
3:49:52by absorbing the power of its core. As
3:49:55for the heavenly grade golden elixir,
3:49:57that involves even more things. One such
3:50:00person might only appear once every
3:50:02thousand years in the entire Tanuan
3:50:04realm. Therefore, for many geniuses, the
3:50:07Earthrade golden elixir represents the
3:50:09ultimate goal and the ultimate pursuit.
3:50:11Such Chongqing immediately pressed
3:50:13further. Is it difficult to achieve a
3:50:15heavenly grade golden elixir? Leankai
3:50:18said with a serious expression, "This is
3:50:20not a question of whether it can be
3:50:22achieved, but rather that it requires a
3:50:24certain opportunity which is almost
3:50:26impossible for those without great
3:50:28fortune." Such Chanqing thought to
3:50:30himself, "Just because others can't do
3:50:32it doesn't mean I can't. Even a genius
3:50:34like Leingai who possesses three
3:50:36spiritual roots that complement each
3:50:38other. We must also seek breakthroughs
3:50:40within our limited lifespan. But I am
3:50:42different. I have an almost infinite
3:50:44lifespan. So I can accumulate little by
3:50:47little. Seeing that the other party
3:50:48remained silent, Li Sankai thought he
3:50:50had been discouraged and comforted him.
3:50:53These things are too far away for you.
3:50:55Let's talk about them when you reach the
3:50:56foundation establishment stage. Such
3:50:58Chan nodded. Senior brother is right. Li
3:51:01Sanankai got back to the main point.
3:51:03Junior brother, as long as you join our
3:51:05team, although you will be very busy and
3:51:08demanding for the next 10 years, you
3:51:09will receive the greatest benefits
3:51:11regardless of whether my cousin succeeds
3:51:13or fails in the end. Benefits? Such
3:51:16Chonqing asked thoughtfully, Lee
3:51:18Sanankai said meaningfully. Even if my
3:51:20cousin fails to break through to the
3:51:22Earth grade golden core, he is still a
3:51:24genius with three spiritual roots
3:51:26complimenting each other, which is
3:51:28incomparable to some people. Su
3:51:30Chongqing knew who the other party was
3:51:31referring to, but he did not agree
3:51:33directly. Instead, he hesitated and
3:51:36said, "Since it is my senior brother's
3:51:38invitation, I certainly cannot refuse.
3:51:40I'm just afraid I won't be able to
3:51:42help." Le Sanankai chuckled. I actually
3:51:44had this concern before I came. Seeing
3:51:47how well you've taken care of the spirit
3:51:49rice and even started planting four leaf
3:51:51clovers, my concerns have been
3:51:52dispelled. Chapter 27 chose cooperation.
3:51:56The first spring rain. Chapter 27 chose
3:51:58to cooperate. After some discussion, Su
3:52:01Chongqing agreed to cooperate. The price
3:52:03is that at least 800 caddies of second
3:52:06grade spiritual rice must be provided
3:52:08each quarter. In other words, if his
3:52:10output is only 2,000 caddies per
3:52:12quarter, besides the 1,000 gene required
3:52:15for the task, another 800 gene need to
3:52:17be provided. Thus, he only had about 200
3:52:20caddies of second grade spirit rice left
3:52:22on him. At first glance, it seems like a
3:52:24huge loss. In reality, it is not
3:52:27provided for free. Leeling by would take
3:52:29out a sum of spirit stones to purchase
3:52:31it. The only difference is that the
3:52:33price won't be high. It may even be
3:52:34lower than the market price. Therefore,
3:52:37it is estimated that the company will
3:52:38break even over the next 10 years. But
3:52:41regardless of whetherly Lingai succeeds
3:52:43in breaking through to the Earth golden
3:52:45core, the result is worthwhile. After
3:52:48all, the other party is a genius with
3:52:50three spiritual roots complimenting each
3:52:52other. He is also a core disciple. There
3:52:54is also a nent sold true monarch as a
3:52:57backer. Junior brother, I know this is a
3:52:59bit of a stretch for you and you might
3:53:01even have to live a rather frugal life
3:53:03for the next 10 years, but this is a
3:53:05chance to change your destiny, isn't it?
3:53:07Le Sanankai stared at the person in
3:53:08front of him, his eyes gleaming with an
3:53:11inexplicable light. Yes, Such Chonqing
3:53:13admitted. Li Sanankai took out a spirit
3:53:15stone from his storage bag. This is a
3:53:17mid-grade spirit stone, equivalent to
3:53:20100 lowgrade spirit stones. Consider it
3:53:23a deposit for the cooperation. Of
3:53:25course, regardless of whether you
3:53:26ultimately succeed or fail, we will not
3:53:29take this spirit stone back. Su Chonqing
3:53:31took it, then cuped his hands in a
3:53:33gesture of respect and said, "Thank you,
3:53:36senior brother." Liang Kai was quite
3:53:38satisfied with the outcome of this trip
3:53:40and immediately waved his hand and said,
3:53:43"Let's go." Then he turned and walked
3:53:45towards the core management office. But
3:53:47strangely, the frequency of each step
3:53:50was not fast. Such Chanqing noticed that
3:53:52in just a few breaths, only a blurry
3:53:54silhouette remained of the other person
3:53:56and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
3:53:59A movement technique, huh? Then he
3:54:01looked down at the mid-grade spirit
3:54:03stone in his palm. Compared to low-grade
3:54:05spirit stones, this thing is bigger. If
3:54:08we consider lowgrade spirit stones as
3:54:09quail eggs, that mid-grade spirit stone
3:54:12is an egg. The spiritual energy
3:54:14contained within is several times more
3:54:16concentrated. This is good stuff. It can
3:54:19be used not only for cultivation but
3:54:21also for setting up formations. Of
3:54:23course, for Su Chongqing now, the
3:54:25significance of collecting outweighs its
3:54:27actual value. Time passed day by day.
3:54:30Boom. A clap of thunder boomed. Before
3:54:32long, churning dark clouds gathered
3:54:35above the spirit field. Rumble. The dull
3:54:37rumble of thunder continued, making the
3:54:40atmosphere increasingly oppressive. It
3:54:42was daytime, yet it grew increasingly
3:54:44dark. This is the first rain of spring,
3:54:46and I've heard it's good for spiritual
3:54:48plants. Su Chanqing stood at the
3:54:50doorway, looking up at the sky. The
3:54:52little yellow dog also squatted down
3:54:54next to him. It raised its head, looking
3:54:56at us with its dark eyes, seemingly
3:54:58understanding, but not quite. Although,
3:55:00I don't know why my owner did this, but
3:55:02I feel an instinctive fear of the
3:55:04occasional thunder, crackling sounds.
3:55:07Soon, the rain poured down. The dense
3:55:09raindrops seemed to be strung together
3:55:11by invisible threads. One after another,
3:55:13they were countless. The moment it fell,
3:55:16it exploded into countless smaller water
3:55:18droplets. Before long, the ground was
3:55:20full of potholes. Seeing this, Su
3:55:23Chongqing simply moved a chair over and
3:55:25sat down at the door. Then she held the
3:55:27little yellow dog in her arms. Feeling
3:55:29the other person's slightly trembling
3:55:31body, he would gently soothe them with
3:55:33his hands from time to time. Perhaps the
3:55:36voice was too soothing because he
3:55:37actually fell asleep. I don't know how
3:55:39much time has passed. When I opened my
3:55:41eyes again, the rain had stopped.
3:55:43Although the dark clouds hadn't moved
3:55:45away, there was no sign of the rain
3:55:47continuing. That was a really good
3:55:49sleep. Su Chongqing stood up, put the
3:55:51sleeping little yellow dog on a chair,
3:55:53and then went outside. The air after the
3:55:56rain was quite complex. It has the
3:55:58earthy smell of soil that has been
3:55:59soaked. There was also a sour stench
3:56:01from the flushing out of rotten matter,
3:56:03and because it had rained, the water
3:56:05element content soared. This caused Su
3:56:08Chongqing to experience a slight feeling
3:56:10of sluggishness when walking. It felt as
3:56:12if I was being gently pulled by
3:56:14something unseen. Similarly, the content
3:56:16of what elemental energy has also
3:56:18increased. But now is not the time for
3:56:20cultivation. Although it was only 1 acre
3:56:22of spiritual land, Such Chonqing still
3:56:25inspected it carefully. I tried my best
3:56:27to sense the condition of all the
3:56:29spiritual plants and dared not be
3:56:31careless. It must be said that the
3:56:33moisture brought by the rain is indeed
3:56:34very good. All the spiritual plants that
3:56:37have been absorbed, whether it's
3:56:38spiritual rice or four-leaf clover, they
3:56:41all became moist and smooth and grew
3:56:43even stronger, especially fourleaf
3:56:46clovers. Most of them originally only
3:56:48had one green leaf, but after the spring
3:56:50rains, many of them split into two. What
3:56:53originally had two green leaves now has
3:56:55three. All of them were improved. It
3:56:57seems like everything is fine. Wait, why
3:57:00are so many bugs crawling out of these
3:57:01puddles? I knew it wouldn't be that
3:57:03simple. After a thorough inspection, the
3:57:05spiritual plants were found to be
3:57:07without any problems. However, Su
3:57:10Chongqing discovered that insects were
3:57:11crawling out of many puddles and pools.
3:57:14It is very small in size. It resembled a
3:57:16tiny cicada. Moreover, there are two
3:57:18types. One type has long narrow wings.
3:57:22One type has short round wings. Seeing
3:57:24this, Su Chonqing took out a
3:57:26communication talisman from his small
3:57:28storage bag, infused it with spiritual
3:57:30power, and called out after it lit up,
3:57:32"Fellow Dist Luo, help me get rid of the
3:57:35insects." Although these insects have
3:57:37not yet climbed onto the rice, it may
3:57:39not cause any harm. However, Su
3:57:41Chongqing still dared not let his guard
3:57:43down, even if it means wasting a few
3:57:45spirit stones. It's worth it. A voice
3:57:48came through the communication talisman
3:57:49shortly after. Although it was a bit
3:57:51blurry, it was still barely audible. I'm
3:57:54so busy. I simply can't find the time.
3:57:57When are you free? I'm busy right now.
3:57:59How about I find someone for you?
3:58:01Anything is fine as long as they can
3:58:03come and get rid of the pests. Good. The
3:58:05conversation between the two ended. Su
3:58:08Chonqing looked at the dimly lit
3:58:09communication talisman in his hand and
3:58:11couldn't help but complain. It looks
3:58:13like a cell phone. It can not only make
3:58:15calls over long distances. Even rainy
3:58:18days can affect the signal. Fortunately,
3:58:20Lu Xiao was unable to come and help, but
3:58:22the other party found someone else. I
3:58:24just don't know how long I'll have to
3:58:26wait. An hour later, a figure holding an
3:58:28umbrella approached. Woof! Woof! The
3:58:31little yellow dog barked. The person on
3:58:33the other end was clearly startled and
3:58:35immediately stopped in their tracks.
3:58:37Seeing this, Su Chongqing walked out of
3:58:39the wooden house and asked the person
3:58:41opposite, "Is this the fellow Dowist
3:58:43that fellow Daist Luo found to help me
3:58:45get rid of the insects?" "Yes." A timid
3:58:48voice quickly rang out. Then come
3:58:50quickly. Su Chongqing waved. I I'm
3:58:53afraid of dogs. The person on the other
3:58:55end seemed very resistant. Su Chongqing
3:58:58was taken aback. My dog is only a few
3:59:00months old. It doesn't bite. Are you
3:59:02sure? The other person was still
3:59:04hesitant. Su Chongqing nodded
3:59:06helplessly. I promise I won't bite
3:59:08anyone, so you can rest assured. All
3:59:10right, then. Only after receiving
3:59:12assurances did the other party approach
3:59:14step by step. As they got closer, Su
3:59:16Chongqing finally saw clearly. It turned
3:59:18out that under the umbrella was a female
3:59:20disciple with a rather androgynous face,
3:59:23and she also had a golden sword stuck
3:59:25upside down in her chest. Clearly, the
3:59:27other party and Lu Xiao both possessed
3:59:29the metal spiritual root. How did you
3:59:32determine that she was a female
3:59:33disciple? Because although her face is
3:59:35androgynous, her body shape is not. It
3:59:38has even reached a considerable scale
3:59:40and should not be underestimated. At
3:59:42this moment, the female disciple with a
3:59:44golden spirit root introduced herself.
3:59:46Fellow Daist, my name is Lu Mumu. Su
3:59:50Choning replied, "Su Chonqing." Lu Mumu
3:59:53patted her chest with a look of relief.
3:59:55Looks like I didn't get lost. Su Choning
3:59:58asked curiously, "What is your
4:00:00relationship with fellow Daist Luo?" Lu
4:00:02Mumu smiled and said, "That's my
4:00:04brother. My own brother?" Su Choning
4:00:07asked in surprise. Lu Mumu nodded as she
4:00:10folded her umbrella. Yes, Su Chongqing
4:00:13sighed inwardly. No wonder they look
4:00:15exactly alike. It's hard to believe that
4:00:17such an amazing physique is topped with
4:00:19a face that looks just like a man.
4:00:21Chapter 28, yield 3,000 gene, lifespan
4:00:2550,000 days. Chapter 28, production of
4:00:283,000 caddies, lifespan of 50,000 days.
4:00:32Lu Mumu is still a bit lacking compared
4:00:34to her brother Lu Xiao. She seemed very
4:00:36cautious. Luh Xiao lacked composure. To
4:00:39put it bluntly, I'm just not confident.
4:00:41Fortunately, this time the pests were
4:00:43discovered relatively early. Most of
4:00:45them had just crawled out of the puddles
4:00:47and puddles, and there weren't many on
4:00:48the rice plants. Therefore, no loss was
4:00:51caused, which is fortunate in a bad
4:00:53situation. Adhering to the principle of
4:00:55asking questions when in doubt, Su
4:00:57Chongqing asked the other party, "What
4:00:59kind of insects are these?" Lu Mumu
4:01:02struggled to control the sword pellet,
4:01:04and after several seconds, she said,
4:01:06"Indigo plant hopper. rice plant hopper.
4:01:09Such Chanqing memorized the name, seeing
4:01:11that her spiritual energy was about to
4:01:13run out. Lu Mumu quickly stopped to rest
4:01:16and then continued. In spring,
4:01:18especially right after it rains, these
4:01:20insects are very common. Such Chonqing
4:01:23then took the opportunity to ask, "Is
4:01:25there any way to solve this once and for
4:01:26all?" Last winter, the winter awakening
4:01:29insect crawled out of the black soil.
4:01:32This spring, rice plant hoppers
4:01:33reappeared after the rains. If it
4:01:35happens in all four seasons, then you'll
4:01:37always need to ask someone for help. To
4:01:40be honest, although the cost wasn't
4:01:41high, it was a bit troublesome. Lu Mumu
4:01:44sat cross-legged, slowly recovering her
4:01:47depleted spiritual energy and then said,
4:01:49"This is a natural phenomenon and it can
4:01:52be avoided if you want to. Either ask us
4:01:54for help or install the formation, an
4:01:56array formation, huh?" Such Chanqing
4:01:58used. Lu Mumu nodded and said, "Many
4:02:01spirit farmers, especially those who
4:02:03have reached the foundation
4:02:04establishment stage, will almost always
4:02:07ask an Earth spirit route array master
4:02:08to install a low-level gold killing
4:02:10array to avoid losses." Su Chongqing
4:02:13quickly followed up, "What's the price
4:02:15of this low-level golden killing array?"
4:02:18Lu Mumu frowned. Last year, it cost
4:02:20about 10 mid-grade spirit stones to hire
4:02:23a formation master to install the
4:02:24low-level golden killing formation.
4:02:27However, every now and then, we had to
4:02:29hire a disciple with a golden spiritual
4:02:31route to input spiritual power to
4:02:34maintain the formation's continuous
4:02:35operation. So, it cost about 11 spirit
4:02:38stones. Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow.
4:02:40Why last year? Lu Mumu said helplessly.
4:02:44Everything has gone crazy in price this
4:02:46year. Su Chongqing fell silent
4:02:48immediately. Really, many things were
4:02:50quite cheap last year, but this year
4:02:52with only 2 years left until the formal
4:02:54disciple competition come. In addition,
4:02:57the five major forces deliberately
4:02:59controlled market prices to fleece
4:03:01investors. The price changes every day.
4:03:03Now, last year, installing the formation
4:03:06only cost 11 mid-grade spirit stones.
4:03:09That means maybe 20 mid-grade spirit
4:03:11stones this year. It seems that I can't
4:03:13keep up the act anytime soon. After a
4:03:15long time, Lu Mumu finally finished
4:03:17cleaning up the pests. The reason for
4:03:19this delay is this is mainly because Lu
4:03:22Mumu's cultivation level and spell level
4:03:24are low. Therefore, in order to prevent
4:03:26damage to the spirit rice in Su
4:03:28Chongqing<unk>s second grade spirit
4:03:29field, they deliberately reduced the
4:03:32speed and efficiency of insecticide
4:03:34application. However, Su Chongqing did
4:03:36not offer first grade spirit rice as
4:03:38payment. Instead, he offered second
4:03:41grade rice. How many? 20. Last time Lu
4:03:44Xiao came to remove pests, he gave me 50
4:03:47catties of premium rice. In market
4:03:49terms, that's only five low-grade spirit
4:03:52stones. This time it's grade two Lingi
4:03:54rice. Calculated at the current market
4:03:56ratio of 1 minute and 1.5 seconds.
4:03:59Approximately 14 low-grade spirit
4:04:01stones. It nearly tripled. Expensive.
4:04:04Too expensive. Su Chonqing felt as if
4:04:07his heart was bleeding. Only then did he
4:04:09realize how extraordinary multiple
4:04:11spiritual roots, especially five
4:04:13spiritual roots, were. If you have a
4:04:15metal spiritual root, you don't need to
4:04:17ask someone else to remove the pests.
4:04:19Anyone with an earth elemental root can
4:04:21install formations on their own. If one
4:04:24has a water elemental root, one can cast
4:04:26the minor cloud rain spell every day.
4:04:29Spring is coming to an end in the blink
4:04:30of an eye. The day for harvesting the
4:04:32spiritual plants has arrived. Su
4:04:34Chongqing stood on the edge of the field
4:04:36using the Chongqing technique to sense
4:04:38the condition of the spiritual rice.
4:04:41Mature abundant spiritual energy. No
4:04:44loss. Second grade spirit rice. Today's
4:04:47best yield 3,500 gene. The quality has
4:04:51not changed, but the output has indeed
4:04:53increased significantly. Such Chanqing
4:04:56nodded slightly. Last time, that is last
4:04:58winter. If you only loosen the soil
4:05:01yourself and then apply a small amount
4:05:02of fertilizer, the final yield of Ling
4:05:05Dao was 2,100 gene. This spring, we
4:05:08loosened the soil around the corn and
4:05:10applied fertilizer to all of them. They
4:05:12even summoned by Linger to perform the
4:05:14little cloud rain technique and the
4:05:16terrifying blessing of the five layers
4:05:18of the evergreen technique. Even after a
4:05:20spring rain, the yield finally broke
4:05:22through 3,000 gene and even reached
4:05:253,500 gene. All the previous efforts
4:05:28were clearly worthwhile. Now the 1,000
4:05:31gene that was handed over has been
4:05:32reduced. There were also 800 gene
4:05:35provided to Leing. In addition, there
4:05:37were 50 caddies of loosened soil from
4:05:39Han Soo and Hubuay's 150 gene. That
4:05:43means there are still 1,500 gene of top
4:05:46quality ling rice left. Based on the
4:05:48market ratio from a certain period of
4:05:49time, the ratio of second grade
4:05:51spiritual rice to premium spiritual rice
4:05:54is 1 minute and 1.5 seconds. 1500 gene
4:05:57of grade 2 spirit rice is equivalent to
4:06:001,000 lowgrade spirit stones. That is 10
4:06:03mid-grade spirit stones. Now, in
4:06:06addition to the previous 800 gene of
4:06:08premium spiritual rice, I have a total
4:06:10of 2,450
4:06:12gene 1275 caddies. If we save money this
4:06:16year, wouldn't we be able to install the
4:06:17array? Such Choning<unk>s eyes lit up.
4:06:20Then, he decisively picked up his
4:06:22everyday magical weapon, the scythe, and
4:06:24began to happily harvest. Harvesting one
4:06:27supreme spirit rice plant increases
4:06:29lifespan by 6 days. Harvesting one
4:06:32supreme spirit rice plant increases
4:06:34lifespan by 6 days. Harvesting one
4:06:37supreme spirit rice plant increases
4:06:39lifespan by 6 days. After all the spirit
4:06:42rice was harvested, Su Choning looked at
4:06:44the attribute panel. Such Chonqing male
4:06:4819 years old. Remaining lifespan 50,769
4:06:52days. Wood spirit root late stage ofqi
4:06:56refining evergreen technique level five.
4:06:59Lingi wine expert with spirit
4:07:01entanglement third layer. I remember it
4:07:04was 43,769
4:07:06days ago. That means this harvest of
4:07:08spiritual rice will take 7,000 more
4:07:11days. Although production increased, the
4:07:13number of days did not increase
4:07:15significantly. Converted it has a
4:07:17lifespan of about 140 years. Now for a
4:07:20cultivator, more than 100 years is
4:07:22nothing. But you should know that Su
4:07:24Chongqing has only just begun and his
4:07:26potential will continue to grow. After
4:07:28resting for a while, he focused his
4:07:30attention on the four-leaf clover. This
4:07:32is a spiritual plant I bought from Jeang
4:07:34Su, who was in the foundation
4:07:36establishment stage. According to them,
4:07:38it is slightly superior to spirit rice.
4:07:41Of course, what Su Chongqing cared about
4:07:43most was the value of this thing. If
4:07:45it's worthless, wouldn't we have been
4:07:46tricked by Jeang Su? There is no need to
4:07:49continue planting thereafter. The clover
4:07:51was not yet mature. The two-leaf clover
4:07:53was not yet mature. Abundant spiritual
4:07:55energy mature tomorrow. They're actually
4:07:58split into two groups and even their
4:08:00names are different. Su Chongqing raised
4:08:02an eyebrow. Judging from its name, it
4:08:04seems that although it is called
4:08:06four-leaf clover, but in reality, it
4:08:09should be calculated based on quality.
4:08:11Judging from the current situation,
4:08:12clover is considered superior to
4:08:14two-leaf clover. Unfortunately, due to a
4:08:17lack of planting experience, not a
4:08:19single four-leaf clover grew. Since the
4:08:21fruit won't be ripe until tomorrow, Su
4:08:23Chongqing wasn't in a hurry and turned
4:08:25to walk towards the wooden house. After
4:08:27being so busy for so long, it's time to
4:08:30treat myself to a meal. Before we knew
4:08:32it, it was the next day. After numerous
4:08:34searches, the time for the four-leaf
4:08:36clover to mature has finally arrived.
4:08:38The clover is ripe. The two-leaf clover
4:08:40is mature. Abundant spiritual energy,
4:08:43undamaged, completely ripe. This time,
4:08:46Su Chongqing didn't use a sickle, but
4:08:49instead used a hoe to dig. Harvesting
4:08:51one clover plant increases its lifespan
4:08:53by 3 days. Harvesting one clover plant
4:08:56increases its lifespan by 2 days.
4:08:58Ultimately, the clover granted Su
4:09:00Chongqing 510 days of life. Two leaf
4:09:03clover provides a lifespan of 482 days.
4:09:07Altogether, it takes nearly a,000 days.
4:09:10Su Chongqing was not surprised by this
4:09:12result. First, the planting method was
4:09:14incorrect. Secondly, this is a
4:09:16small-cale experiment. It should be
4:09:18noted that this spiritual plant is small
4:09:20in size. Moreover, it hasn't reached the
4:09:22final quality of fourleaf clover yet. If
4:09:25it covers the entire grade 2 spirit
4:09:28field, it will still be of the fourleaf
4:09:30quality. The extra days would definitely
4:09:32exceed those gained from harvesting the
4:09:34spirit rice. However, at present, Linga
4:09:37is more cost effective for Such
4:09:38Chongqing. It can be sold and eaten at
4:09:41the same time. In contrast, the value of
4:09:43the four-leaf clover is still unknown.
4:09:46There was only one seller, and that was
4:09:48Jeang Su. Su Chongqing then deliberately
4:09:50waited a few days. After going through a
4:09:52phase like most barbarians, they finally
4:09:54left with their harvest. I plan to
4:09:56submit the task to the core management
4:09:58office first, then find Jang Su. First,
4:10:01see if she needs help harvesting, and
4:10:03then see if she wants these four leaf
4:10:05clovers. Chapter 29. Help me cut, cut,
4:10:08cut, and increase my lifespan. Chapter
4:10:1129. Helping with harvesting. Lifespan
4:10:13increased by 1,000 caddies of top grade
4:10:16spirit rise produced from second grade
4:10:17spirit fields. Points plus 250. Adding
4:10:20to last winter's 250, it has now reached
4:10:23500. However, there is still a gap of
4:10:261500 points between that and the time
4:10:28needed to exchange for the second
4:10:30advanced cultivation technique. In fact,
4:10:33Such Chongqing had calculated it. Each
4:10:35year, 5,000 caddies of premium spiritual
4:10:38rice must be handed over, which is worth
4:10:401,250 points. Therefore, as long as you
4:10:43persist for a year, you can exchange it
4:10:45for a highle cultivation technique. This
4:10:48might be difficult for others,
4:10:49especially for those who have just
4:10:50joined the core. But for Su Chongqing,
4:10:53it was as simple as drinking water.
4:10:55You've completed the task once again.
4:10:57Very good. Old Master Hua was very
4:10:59satisfied. Of course, what I was most
4:11:01satisfied with was that the other party
4:11:03submitted the top quality Lingi again.
4:11:05If it happens once, it might be a
4:11:07coincidence, but if it happens twice in
4:11:09a row, then it's inevitable. The
4:11:11disciple before me is simply a born
4:11:13spiritual farmer. Su Chongqing bowed
4:11:16respectfully. Manager, is there a way to
4:11:18quickly increase points? Huao said with
4:11:21a half smile. It seems you haven't
4:11:23successfully mastered the wood spirit
4:11:25entanglement technique. Such Chonqing
4:11:27didn't answer. He just blinked. It's not
4:11:29that he doesn't want to talk about it,
4:11:31but if I were to say it, it would
4:11:33probably scare the other person. Hao
4:11:35continued, "You can earn points by
4:11:37helping others complete tasks." Su
4:11:39Chongqing was surprised. Doesn't that
4:11:41mean that those who accepted my missions
4:11:43not only received rewards, but also
4:11:45points? Old Hua retorted matterof
4:11:47factly. Otherwise, what? Such Chan Xiing
4:11:50was speechless. No wonder so many people
4:11:52enjoy doing quests. I initially thought
4:11:54it was due to the compensation. It now
4:11:57seems clear that they're trying to
4:11:58profit from both sides. They ate the
4:12:00reward and then the points. Elder Hua
4:12:02chuckled and said, "Any task that
4:12:04requires the help of a disciple with a
4:12:06wood spirit route can be found here. As
4:12:08long as you meet the requirements, you
4:12:10can accept it." Upon hearing this, Su
4:12:13Chongqing quickly bowed and took his
4:12:14leave. Then headed towards the direction
4:12:16where he would receive the mission. Soon
4:12:19he arrived at a wall. There are
4:12:20countless tasks here. Seeking Foundation
4:12:23establishment stage disciples with wood
4:12:25elemental roots to help cultivate
4:12:27century old spiritual plants. Points
4:12:29plus 60 reward plus five mid-grade
4:12:32spirit stones. The bamboo outside is a
4:12:35bit withered. Disciples with the wood
4:12:37spirit root are helping to restore it.
4:12:39Points plus one reward plus 10 lowgrade
4:12:42spirit stones. Urgent mission. Disciples
4:12:45with wood spirit roots must master the
4:12:47evergreen technique. Level two points
4:12:49plus 50 reward plus one mid-grade spirit
4:12:53stone. The missions are all soso. Su
4:12:56Chongqing said dissatisfied with any of
4:12:58them. It's either time-consuming and
4:13:00laborious. Either the score is not high
4:13:02enough. Instead of wasting time, we
4:13:05should plant more spiritual plants.
4:13:07After looking around and finding nothing
4:13:09suitable, he turned and left. Just as I
4:13:11stepped outside the palace, I suddenly
4:13:13caught a glimpse of a familiar figure
4:13:15flashing by. Xiao Xiao. Su
4:13:17Chongqing<unk>s face darkened as he
4:13:19watched the other man's hurried
4:13:20departure. We agreed to return the 10
4:13:23caddies of second grade spiritual rice
4:13:25we borrowed after the spring season
4:13:26ended. But now upon seeing me, they
4:13:29actually turned around and left.
4:13:31Clearly, they have no intention of
4:13:33paying it back. It looks like this guy's
4:13:35spring harvest won't be good. Using 10
4:13:38caddies of second grade spiritual rice
4:13:40to understand a person is not a bad
4:13:42deal. However, Su Chongqing had no
4:13:44intention of letting Xiao Xiao off
4:13:46easily. If they still haven't returned
4:13:48it by the end of summer, go to their
4:13:50door directly. Then he walked toward
4:13:51Jeang Su<unk>s spirit field. They were
4:13:54getting closer and closer. One can
4:13:56clearly feel the wood elemental energy
4:13:58gradually becoming stronger. Although
4:14:00they are both second grade spirit
4:14:02fields, but they own a full 10 acres.
4:14:04Moreover, the herbs grown there are all
4:14:06expensive medicinal plants. Junior
4:14:08Brother Sue, I was just about to ask
4:14:10someone to inform you. It seems we're on
4:14:12the same wavelength. As the saying goes,
4:14:14timing is everything. Jang Su smiled
4:14:17slightly. Su Chongqing agreed
4:14:19wholeheartedly. Indeed. Jang Su warmly
4:14:22put his arm around Su's shoulder and
4:14:24pointed to the spirit field in front of
4:14:25him, saying, "Junior brother Su, this
4:14:28time it's a bit tough. You'll have to
4:14:29help your senior brother harvest 3 acres
4:14:32of spirit field." Three Mu Su Chongqing
4:14:35found it unbelievable. Emu was very
4:14:37happy before she arrived. Unexpectedly,
4:14:39this time it actually covered three
4:14:41acres. Jang Su misunderstood and quickly
4:14:44said, "Don't worry. The reward for one
4:14:46moo of spirit field is 20 gene of second
4:14:49grade spirit rice or 14 lowgrade spirit
4:14:52stones." Su Chongqing grinned. Senior
4:14:54brotherhang, "Don't misunderstand. I'd
4:14:57be willing to do it even if it's just 30
4:14:59acres." Upon hearing this, Jean Su was
4:15:02immediately delighted and became even
4:15:04more enthusiastic. You've worked hard.
4:15:06If you get thirsty or hungry, just ask
4:15:09your senior brother's Daist partner,
4:15:10Shir, and she will make arrangements.
4:15:13Okay. Su Chongqing nodded. Then he
4:15:16picked up a sickle and went into the
4:15:17first moo of spiritual field. The herbs
4:15:20planted here this time look quite
4:15:21peculiar. The top is very small with
4:15:24only one grayish brown leaf. At first
4:15:26glance, it looks like a small insect is
4:15:28crawling on it. Yet, its trunk and the
4:15:31roots in the black soil are surprisingly
4:15:33large. Circulate the evergreen
4:15:35technique. Level five. The information
4:15:37suddenly appeared before my eyes.
4:15:39Mature, no damage, abundant spiritual
4:15:42energy. Today's highlights. Top tier
4:15:45quality acquired later. It's<unk> ahead
4:15:47of schedule again, Su Chongqing thought
4:15:49to himself. It seems that Jeang Su has
4:15:51no control over the timing of the
4:15:53spiritual plant's maturity. Or perhaps
4:15:55he simply doesn't care. Harvest as long
4:15:57as it's ripe. Nothing else matters.
4:15:59Then, under Jeang Su<unk>s command, Su
4:16:02Chongqing began harvesting from close to
4:16:04the roots. Harvesting one highquality
4:16:06Cortiseps plant increases its lifespan
4:16:09by 4 days. Harvesting one highquality
4:16:11Cortiseps plant increases its lifespan
4:16:14by 4 days. Harvesting one highquality
4:16:16Cortiseps plant increases its lifespan
4:16:19by 4 days. After finishing the work on
4:16:21the 1 acre of Spirit Field, Su Chonqing
4:16:24stopped to rest and took a look at his
4:16:26attribute panel. Remaining lifespan
4:16:2855,345
4:16:30days. If he remembers correctly, that
4:16:33includes the harvesting of fourleaf
4:16:34clovers. Its previous lifespan was
4:16:3751,761
4:16:39days. That is to say, after harvesting 1
4:16:42acre of Cortiseps militarus, it added
4:16:443,584
4:16:46days to its lifespan. Junior Brother Su,
4:16:49you've worked hard. Have a cup of tea.
4:16:51At this moment, Jean Su<unk>s daist
4:16:53partner, Wuir, approached. Su Chongqing
4:16:56snapped out of his days and quickly
4:16:58accepted the gift with both hands. Thank
4:17:00you, senior sister. Although the other
4:17:03party's level may not be as high as
4:17:05mine, but who could blame them for
4:17:06finding Jeang Su, who was in the
4:17:08foundation establishment stage, as their
4:17:10backer, Wuieru said with a smile. Before
4:17:13you came, Brother Su kept talking about
4:17:15it. Su Choning was quite surprised.
4:17:18You've been talking about me. Wooier
4:17:20nodded. They said you cut it well and
4:17:22are sensible, so you deserve to be taken
4:17:24care of. Such Chonqing knew immediately
4:17:26that the other party had made it up on
4:17:28the spot, but he still pretended to be
4:17:30flattered. I didn't expect my senior
4:17:32brother to value me so much. The more
4:17:34respectful the person in front of her
4:17:36was, the happier Wooir felt. Because of
4:17:39her poor comprehension, she became a
4:17:41Dowist partner at a young age. So why
4:17:43choose Jang Su this fat pig? Of course,
4:17:45they'll give more. Although it's a bit
4:17:47of a hassle occasionally, it's not a big
4:17:49deal. Now we have both resources and
4:17:51status. Anyone whose level of
4:17:53understanding was lower than Jang Su
4:17:55treated him with utmost respect. Even
4:17:58those more capable than Jang Su would
4:18:00not choose to ignore him. The vanity and
4:18:02sense of superiority that are lacking
4:18:04can always be satisfied the most. Seeing
4:18:06that the other party was very happy, Su
4:18:09Chongqing immediately asked, "Senior
4:18:11sister, do you remember the fourleaf
4:18:13clover seeds I bought from senior
4:18:14brother last time?" Wuier replied, "I
4:18:17remember." Such Chongqing picked up the
4:18:19small storage bag and then took out all
4:18:21the harvested four-leaf clovers. I only
4:18:24planted some of those seeds and they
4:18:25were all three leaf and two leaf
4:18:27clovers. I wonder if senior brother
4:18:29would like to buy them. What? Wooier
4:18:31exclaimed incredulously. You really grew
4:18:33it? Looking at the four-leaf clover in
4:18:36Su Chongqing<unk>s hand, although most
4:18:38of them have three or two leaves, but I
4:18:40was still shocked. After all, she
4:18:42believed from the beginning that the
4:18:43other party would fail. Su Chongqing
4:18:46handed it over. Senior sister, could you
4:18:48ask her for me? Wier took a deep breath,
4:18:51calmed herself down, and then took over,
4:18:53saying, "Okay." She quickly put the
4:18:55fourleaf clovers into her storage bag.
4:18:57He then turned and walked towards the
4:18:59house on the other side. Seeing this, Su
4:19:02Chongqing picked up the sickle again and
4:19:03then walked towards the second Moo of
4:19:05Spirit Field. Chapter 30, Jangir's
4:19:08sabotage resulted in a lifespan of 200
4:19:10years. Chapter 30, Jang Air causes
4:19:13trouble. His lifespan of 200 years will
4:19:15pass quickly. Wuier came to Jean Su.
4:19:18Have you taken good care of my junior
4:19:20brother Su? Certainly. That's good. I
4:19:23admire him. Your junior brother is quite
4:19:25impressive. What's the meaning? Take a
4:19:27look for yourself. Then Wier took out
4:19:29the four-leaf clover from her storage
4:19:31bag. Jeang Su glanced at them casually.
4:19:34These are all three leaf and two leaf
4:19:36varieties. Nothing special. He was
4:19:38initially dismissive and even intended
4:19:40to mock them. But before he could finish
4:19:42speaking, he suddenly realized
4:19:43something. He hurriedly looked up, his
4:19:46eyes filled with a look of confirmation
4:19:47as he gazed at his dais partner. Wu
4:19:50Sierra nodded. These were all grown by
4:19:52your junior brother, Su. Jeang Su
4:19:54couldn't help but put aside her contempt
4:19:56and squinted her eyes, saying, "Although
4:19:58there isn't a single four-leaf plant,
4:20:00it's actually possible to cultivate one
4:20:02under this cultivation level and
4:20:04technique. It seems I underestimated
4:20:06this junior brother Sue. During the last
4:20:08transaction, he deliberately didn't
4:20:10mention how to plant it. The point is to
4:20:12see if the other party can actually
4:20:14succeed. Unexpectedly, although the
4:20:16quantity was small, it was indeed
4:20:18accomplished. It seems that this junior
4:20:20brother Sue is skilled in both
4:20:22harvesting and planting. They all
4:20:24possess considerable talent and are
4:20:26indeed exceptional individuals. Wooier
4:20:28agreed, saying, "This junior brother not
4:20:31only has a good attitude, but also great
4:20:33talent." Jeang Su asked in surprise,
4:20:35"Why did you bring it over?" Wuier
4:20:38shrugged and guessed, "Because they're
4:20:40all three leaf and two leaf varieties,
4:20:42and I was afraid you'd be disappointed."
4:20:44"Huh?" Jang Su couldn't help but burst
4:20:46into laughter, appearing very happy. The
4:20:49herbs in Su Chongqing<unk>s second moo
4:20:51of spiritual field looked just like
4:20:53green vegetables. One after another,
4:20:55they were densely packed together. It
4:20:57was almost everywhere in the entire
4:20:58spirit field. Su Chongqing activated the
4:21:01evergreen technique once again. Mature,
4:21:04no damage, abundant spiritual energy.
4:21:07Today's highlights, top-notch evening.
4:21:09In other words, if this thing is
4:21:11harvested at night, its quality can be
4:21:13improved by one level from high quality
4:21:15to top quality. But clearly, Jang Su
4:21:18didn't want to wait. Such Chonqing also
4:21:20did not intend to notify the other
4:21:22party, so he wielded his sickle and
4:21:24began harvesting from the base.
4:21:26Harvesting one highquality grass plant
4:21:29increases its lifespan by 4 days.
4:21:31Harvesting one highquality grass plant
4:21:33increases its lifespan by 4 days.
4:21:36Harvesting one highquality grass plant
4:21:38increases its lifespan by 4 days.
4:21:41Harvesting a plant will increase its
4:21:42lifespan by 4 days. It's the same as the
4:21:45first acre of insect earrass. Time
4:21:48flies. This time, because of the larger
4:21:50quantity, it took longer. Such Chonqing
4:21:53only finished after everyone around him
4:21:55had left. He quickly put the grass back
4:21:57in place before returning to rest.
4:21:59Meanwhile, focus your attention on the
4:22:01properties panel. Remaining lifespan
4:22:0461,318
4:22:06days. Its previous lifespan was 55,345
4:22:10days. After harvesting this acre of
4:22:13grass, my lifespan was extended by 5972
4:22:16days. Such Chonqing is now 167 years
4:22:20old. 200 years is not far off and may
4:22:23even be reached soon. After all, there's
4:22:25still a third acre of spiritual land yet
4:22:27to be harvested. Perhaps there will be a
4:22:29pleasant surprise. Brother Su, a voice
4:22:32called from the doorway. Su Chongqing
4:22:34looked over instinctively and was
4:22:36immediately stunned. He knew the person
4:22:38very well and even harbored some
4:22:40resentment towards him. Who? Jong-air.
4:22:42He's the guy who tried to steal my
4:22:44spirit field from the outside. Speaking
4:22:46of which, ever since I joined the core
4:22:48of Link, the two had not seen each other
4:22:50for more than half a year. I never
4:22:52expected to run into you here. Could
4:22:54Jang Air and Jang Su have some kind of
4:22:56relationship? Su Chongqing wondered to
4:22:58himself, "Isn't that Su Chongqing?"
4:23:01Jeang recognized him at a glance. At
4:23:03this moment, Wuier came out of the
4:23:05house. Because of the distance, Su
4:23:07Chongqing couldn't hear very clearly,
4:23:09but you can tell from their conversation
4:23:11and laughter that they are obviously
4:23:12very familiar with each other. Soon,
4:23:15Jang Air arrived at the door, escorted
4:23:17by Wuier, but before entering, he
4:23:19glanced at Su Chongqing again. His gaze
4:23:22was meaningful. Harvest the third Moo of
4:23:24Spiritual Field directly, Su Chongqing
4:23:26felt a sense of crisis. Even though he
4:23:28had just rested, he returned to the
4:23:30spirit field without stopping. The herbs
4:23:32in the third moo of spiritual field
4:23:34looked quite strange. There was only one
4:23:37leaf about the size of a palm. It stands
4:23:39upright. The overall color is orange
4:23:42red. When the wind blew, these herbs
4:23:44immediately began to sway. At first
4:23:46glance, they look like patches of
4:23:48burning flames. I don't know if it's
4:23:50just my imagination, but I feel like the
4:23:52temperature in the spirit field has
4:23:54risen quite a bit. Mature, no damage,
4:23:57abundant spiritual energy. Today's best.
4:24:00He activated the evergreen technique and
4:24:02looked at the information that appeared.
4:24:04Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up
4:24:05immediately. Sure enough, this third
4:24:08acre of spiritual field brought a
4:24:09pleasant surprise. He picked up a sickle
4:24:12and began to harvest diligently. Harvest
4:24:14one premium fire ear plant lifespan
4:24:17increased by 9 days. Harvest one premium
4:24:20fire ear plant. Lifespan increased by 9
4:24:23days. Harvest one premium fire ear plant
4:24:26lifespan increased by 9 days. As
4:24:28expected of a medicinal herb, it is of
4:24:31the highest quality. However, the
4:24:33lifespan increase after harvesting is
4:24:35greater than that of Ling Dao Ling.
4:24:37Meanwhile, Jeangir had already run into
4:24:40Jeang Su. Why did my cousin come? Why
4:24:42didn't you use a communication talisman
4:24:44to let me know beforehand? Jeang Su
4:24:46asked slightly surprised. Jangir
4:24:48chuckled and said, I just went to the
4:24:50core management office to submit the
4:24:52spring mission, and I'm not in a hurry
4:24:54to go back, so I came here to have tea
4:24:56with my cousin. Jang Su instructed
4:24:58Wuier, "Serve the tea." Soon, Wuier
4:25:01turned and walked towards another room.
4:25:03At this moment, Jang Air stepped forward
4:25:05and asked, "Cousin, do you know who that
4:25:08person outside is?" Jang Su introduced
4:25:10with a smile, "That man is called Su
4:25:12Chongqing. He has good harvesting skills
4:25:14and some talent for planting. He has
4:25:16helped me with the harvest for two
4:25:18consecutive quarters." Seeing the smile
4:25:20on his cousin's face and the admiration
4:25:22in his eyes, Jeang Air felt quite
4:25:24jealous and couldn't help but sneer.
4:25:27This person is one of the outer
4:25:28disciples who refused my recruitment
4:25:30last year. Upon hearing this, the smile
4:25:33on Jang Su<unk>s face vanished
4:25:34instantly. Why was Jeang Air allowed to
4:25:36go to the outer perimeter of the spirit
4:25:38field as an assessment disciple? It's
4:25:41all because of him. To put it bluntly,
4:25:43all the tricks played outside were just
4:25:45leftovers from Jeang Su. This is why one
4:25:48can have 10 acres of second grade
4:25:49spiritual fields during the foundation
4:25:51establishment stage. It's already dark,
4:25:54but we've finally finished everything.
4:25:56Su Chongqing looked at the dim sky and
4:25:58couldn't help but breathe a sigh of
4:26:00relief. In one day, he managed to
4:26:02harvest three acres of spiritual fields.
4:26:05If you haven't reached the late stage
4:26:06ofQi refining, supported by internal
4:26:09spiritual energy. In addition, there is
4:26:11endurance. It's actually quite difficult
4:26:13to get it all done in one go. Of course,
4:26:16the most important point is actually the
4:26:18appearance of Jeang Air. This guy really
4:26:20provoked Su Chongqing, so he didn't dare
4:26:22to delay. Although I don't know what
4:26:24Jang Su and Jangir were talking about,
4:26:26but this guy definitely wasn't holding
4:26:28back a good fart. Senior brother Jang, I
4:26:30have finished harvesting everything. Su
4:26:32Chonqing shouted. It took quite a while
4:26:35before someone came out. But it wasn't
4:26:36Jang Su, it was Wuier. She approached Su
4:26:39Chongqing with a strange expression on
4:26:41her face. His eyes held a complex mix of
4:26:44emotions. Senior sister. Su Chonqing
4:26:47smiled. Wuier didn't speak immediately.
4:26:50Instead, she carefully examined all the
4:26:52harvested herbs before asking
4:26:54expressionlessly, "Spirit rice or spirit
4:26:56stones?" Sensing the other party's cold
4:26:59attitude, Su Chongqing remained calm and
4:27:02said, "Spirit stones, please." Without
4:27:05wasting any words, Wuier immediately
4:27:07took out a few items from her storage
4:27:09bag. "Keep these safe. A total of 62
4:27:12lowgrade spirit stones." Su Chongqing
4:27:15asked in surprise. Isn't three moo of
4:27:17spirit fields supposed to yield 42
4:27:20pieces? Wuier said calmly. And those
4:27:23miscellaneous fourleaf clovers of yours
4:27:25add up to 20 low-grade spirit stones.
4:27:28Such Chanqing suddenly realized what was
4:27:30happening and then took the spirit stone
4:27:32into his hand. Seeing that the other
4:27:34party hadn't even checked the contents,
4:27:36Wuier trusted them completely and put
4:27:38the items into the storage bag. She felt
4:27:40a little regretful, but her attitude
4:27:42remained indifferent. You can leave now.
4:27:45Should we tell senior brotherhang? Su
4:27:47Chanqing asked. No need. Wuier shook her
4:27:50head. Such Chongqing understood more or
4:27:52less and walked towards the fence gate.
4:27:55Wu Sierra followed closely behind,
4:27:57escorting him to the door, seeing that
4:27:59the other person had already stepped
4:28:00out. She said in a deep voice, "You
4:28:03don't need to come anymore." Huh? Such
4:28:05Chanqing pretended to be confused.
4:28:07Seeing this, Wuier couldn't bear it and
4:28:10reminded him. Jeang Su and Jeang are
4:28:12cousins. Su Chongqing immediately
4:28:15understood. Sure enough, the sense of
4:28:17crisis I felt earlier was not an
4:28:19illusion. After closing the fence gate,
4:28:21Wuier turned and left without lingering
4:28:24for a moment. Su Chongqing watched the
4:28:26other person returned to the house
4:28:27before heading towards his home. It got
4:28:29completely dark. Similarly, his
4:28:32complexion was also somewhat dark.
4:28:34Finally, we found a place where we could
4:28:35harvest top quality medicinal herbs. I
4:28:38never expected Jeang Air to ruin it.
4:28:40Fortunately, the final hall was a
4:28:42pleasant surprise. Such Chanqing, male,
4:28:4519 years old. Remaining lifespan 78,316
4:28:50days. Wood spirit root. Late stage ofQi
4:28:53refining evergreen technique level 5.
4:28:56Lingi wine expert wood spirit
4:28:58entanglement third layer an hour
4:29:01earlier. Its lifespan is 61,318
4:29:04days. After harvesting the top quality
4:29:07fire ears, 16,998
4:29:10days were added. In other words, Sue
4:29:13Choning<unk>s lifespan has now exceeded
4:29:15200 years. Chapter 31, market prices
4:29:18stable. Lynn Ns whereabouts. Chapter 31,
4:29:21market prices are stable. Lynn Ns
4:29:23whereabouts. Su Chongqing returned home
4:29:25in the dark. The little yellow dog
4:29:27immediately wagged its tail excitedly.
4:29:30You must be starving. Su Chongqing
4:29:32squatted down and patted the dog's head.
4:29:34Woof woof. I don't know if it was
4:29:35responding. Don't worry, I'll get you
4:29:38something to eat right away. Such
4:29:39Chonqing got up and walked toward the
4:29:41kitchen. This was a pretty good hall.
4:29:43Points plus 250. Low-grade spirit stone
4:29:46plus 62. Lifespan exceeds 200 years. The
4:29:50only pity is that I can no longer go to
4:29:52Jean Su<unk>s place. Even though he was
4:29:54very dissatisfied with Jeangier, Su
4:29:56Chongqing was still in no hurry. He
4:29:58won't take action until he's absolutely
4:30:00certain. At the very least, we should
4:30:02wait until our cultivation reaches the
4:30:04foundation establishment stage before
4:30:06discussing it further. If possible, it
4:30:08would be best to make another spell. The
4:30:10movement technique is the best. Defense
4:30:13is secondary. Offensive attacks don't
4:30:15matter since there's the advanced with
4:30:17spirit entanglement technique. Three
4:30:19layers. Dinner was ready in no time. The
4:30:21man and his dog happily began to eat.
4:30:24After eating and drinking his fill, Such
4:30:26Chanqing conveniently stepped down to
4:30:28wash the dishes. Then I took a hot
4:30:30shower. Once everything was settled, I
4:30:32finally climbed into bed. The little
4:30:34yellow dog skillfully laid down under
4:30:36the bed. Turning to the side, Su
4:30:38Chongqing looked through the open wooden
4:30:40window at the star-studded night sky.
4:30:42Although the world is without cell
4:30:44phones, computers, and the like, it
4:30:46seems dull and boring. To be fair, the
4:30:49scenery is quite beautiful, and you can
4:30:51see countless stars at night. A gentle
4:30:53night breeze blew in, making the
4:30:55atmosphere inside the room even more
4:30:57tranquil. Not long after, Su Chongqing
4:31:00fell asleep. Nothing was said that
4:31:02night, and the next day arrived because
4:31:04the sacred rice has already been
4:31:06harvested. Therefore, the content of
4:31:08what spiritual energy in the spiritual
4:31:10field is very thin. Therefore, Su
4:31:13Chongqing did not cultivate as usual.
4:31:15Bored, he began to explore the area
4:31:17around his home. I've been here for
4:31:19almost a year now, but I don't really
4:31:21know much about the surrounding area. If
4:31:23I remember correctly, there's an
4:31:24abandoned cave nearby. Su Chongqing
4:31:27stood on high ground, his gaze sweeping
4:31:29over the surroundings. On the other side
4:31:31of the spiritual field, about a 100
4:31:33meters away, there is a small hill. It's
4:31:35not very high, maybe only a few dozen
4:31:38meters at most. It was all stone from
4:31:40top to bottom and looked completely
4:31:41bare. Let's go, Such Chongqing called
4:31:44out and walked over with the little
4:31:45yellow dock. Before long, the man and
4:31:48his dog arrived. First, climb up to get
4:31:50a better view. To be honest, this is a
4:31:52rocky mountain. It was just a pile of
4:31:55stones of all sizes, nothing special.
4:31:57Fortunately, the air is fresh at the top
4:31:59of the mountain, and you can see much
4:32:01farther. Su Chongqing stood on the
4:32:03highest rock, gazing into the distance.
4:32:05He was immediately surprised to
4:32:07discover. There seems to be a sacred
4:32:09field in a very far place. Moreover,
4:32:11many spiritual plants grow inside. It's
4:32:14important to know that the end of spring
4:32:16signifies the end of the first quarter
4:32:17of planting. Most of the spiritual
4:32:19plants will be harvested and then we
4:32:21will wait for the start of summer. If
4:32:23there is no harvest, then there are only
4:32:25two possibilities. One is that the
4:32:27manager Gino forgot. Another advantage
4:32:30is its longer growth cycle. It's
4:32:32unlikely that he forgot. That leaves
4:32:34only one possibility, a longer growth
4:32:36cycle. If that's the case, it means that
4:32:38the Ling Nong in the distance is at
4:32:40least at the foundation establishment
4:32:42stage. If one has not reached a certain
4:32:44level of cultivation, or perhaps it's a
4:32:46highle spell like the evergreen
4:32:48technique or the cultivation technique,
4:32:50the best choice is actually Ling Dao
4:32:52Ling. He lives in an even more remote
4:32:54place than I do. This guy is
4:32:56interesting, Su Chongqing said
4:32:58thoughtfully. Is senior brother Sue
4:33:00here? At this moment, someone called
4:33:02from the back of the house. Woof woof.
4:33:04The little yellow dog immediately
4:33:06barked. When someone calls me, what are
4:33:08you going to do? Su Chongqing rolled his
4:33:10eyes. Senior brother Su, the voice on
4:33:12the other end kept calling out, "Let's
4:33:14go back." Su Chongqing had originally
4:33:17planned to take a look at the cave
4:33:18below, but since someone had come
4:33:20looking for him, he had to give up the
4:33:21idea for the time being. He then
4:33:23returned the way he came with the little
4:33:25yellow dog. When the distance gets
4:33:27closer, they discovered that the visitor
4:33:29was Han Su, that is the earth spirit
4:33:31route disciple who helps loosen the
4:33:33soil. Junior brother Han Such Chongqing
4:33:36smiled slightly. Senior brother, you're
4:33:38in high spirits, actually climbing a
4:33:40mountain. Han Su felt relieved when he
4:33:42saw the person appear. Su Chongqing
4:33:44smiled and took out the spirit rice from
4:33:46his small storage bag, then said,
4:33:48"You've come at just the right time.
4:33:50This is the 50 caddies of second grade
4:33:52spirit rice you promised last time." The
4:33:55two had made an agreement. Each time the
4:33:57soil loosening is completed, a reward is
4:33:59given at the end of the quarter. If it
4:34:01were someone else, especially a formal
4:34:03disciple with an earth elemental route,
4:34:05they would never help unless it was at
4:34:07least a 100 caddies of second grade
4:34:08spirit rice. But the other party was
4:34:11cheaper, and the two had known each
4:34:12other on the sidelines. It's actually
4:34:14top grade spirit rice. Sensing the rich
4:34:17spiritual energy within the spirit rice,
4:34:19Han Su<unk>s eyes widened, and he
4:34:21excitedly took it, his voice trembling
4:34:23slightly. Senior Brother Sue. 50 catties
4:34:27of second grade spiritual rice may not
4:34:29seem like much, but if it were top grade
4:34:31spiritual rice, it would weigh 200 gene.
4:34:33If you're eating alone, you can
4:34:35definitely last for 6 months. The key
4:34:37point is that this is the highest grade
4:34:39spiritual rice with the highest
4:34:41concentration of spiritual energy. Its
4:34:44value is even more astonishing. The
4:34:46exchange rate is also higher. Su
4:34:48Chongqing then asked, "How is linen?"
4:34:50Han Su<unk>s smile froze and he shook
4:34:53his head saying, "He was taken away by
4:34:55the Ministry of Punishments because he
4:34:57failed to fulfill his contract and we
4:34:59don't know if he will be able to come
4:35:00back. They took them away." Such Chan
4:35:03was quite shocked. Han Su quickly
4:35:05explained, "I have seen your brother
4:35:06Sue's help, so there's no rush, but that
4:35:09female disciple with the water elemental
4:35:11root is relentless and has even taken
4:35:13the matter to the Ministry of
4:35:14Punishments." Su Chongqing frowned. If
4:35:17it weren't for the formal disciple
4:35:19competition, this wouldn't have
4:35:21happened. Fellow Dowist Lynn, what a
4:35:23pity. But the female disciple with the
4:35:25water elemental root did nothing wrong.
4:35:27When it comes to one's own interests,
4:35:29one must fight for them. You should know
4:35:31that Linen doesn't owe just a couple
4:35:33hundred, but several hundred. In
4:35:36particular, the way they cooperate with
4:35:37female disciples with water elemental
4:35:39roots is that the other party takes 40%.
4:35:42Han Su was helpless about this. I don't
4:35:45even know whether or not to pursue the
4:35:46matter. Su Chongqing nodded and said,
4:35:49"Of course, you should hold them
4:35:50accountable. That's your right." But Han
4:35:53Su looked at the person in front of him,
4:35:55hesitant to speak. Such Chanqing
4:35:57understood perfectly and immediately
4:35:59waved his hand, saying, "Although my
4:36:02relationship with Lynn and is good, it
4:36:04hasn't reached a particularly good
4:36:05level. In fact, the improvement in my
4:36:08relationship with Lynn and started with
4:36:09Jeang Su. While on the periphery, there
4:36:12was basically no communication.
4:36:14Moreover, the other party was in the
4:36:15wrong in this matter. Han Su wanted to
4:36:17hear those words, so he stopped arguing
4:36:19about it. He plans to hold Lynn and
4:36:22accountable upon returning home and seek
4:36:24compensation. Such Chonqing suddenly
4:36:26remembered the Red Maple Valley market.
4:36:28So, he asked, "How's the market doing
4:36:30now?" During the Chinese New Year
4:36:32period, the ratio of premium lingi rice
4:36:34is 1:7. The ratio of second grade lingi
4:36:37rice is 1 minute and 1.5 seconds. Hanu
4:36:41replied, "The price of second grade
4:36:42spiritual rice has stabilized at 1
4:36:44minute and 1.5 seconds. Although it
4:36:47occasionally drops to 1.4, it will rise
4:36:50again in a few days. The ratio of
4:36:52premium Lingi rice has now become 1 to8.
4:36:55Of course, the premium spirit rice here,
4:36:57senior brother, is different. The
4:36:59proportion is lower and it's more
4:37:01expensive. Su Chongqing raised an
4:37:03eyebrow after hearing this. How come you
4:37:05got promoted? Han Su glanced around and
4:37:08seeing only two people and a dog,
4:37:11whispered, "Because the prices inside
4:37:13the immortal sect are too high, many
4:37:15people go to the outside market where
4:37:17cultivators sell their goods." Su
4:37:19Chongqing said with a playful
4:37:20expression, "It seems that Nongshim is
4:37:22feeling external pressure, which is why
4:37:24it is maintaining this ratio." Han Su
4:37:27wholeheartedly agreed. "That's right.
4:37:29The prices in the independent cultivator
4:37:31market are even cheaper. I went there
4:37:33once before and bought a lot of spirit
4:37:35rice, which helped me withstand the
4:37:37pressure. Wait a minute. Such Chonqing
4:37:39was surprised to hear this. Since you
4:37:41can buy spirit rice cheaper in the
4:37:43markets for independent cultivators
4:37:44outside, why doesn't Linen go there?
4:37:47Hans Su twitched his lips. I tried it,
4:37:49but I was caught by the Ministry of
4:37:51Punishments as soon as I got to the
4:37:52teleportation array. Su Chonqing was
4:37:55speechless for a moment. Han Su glanced
4:37:57at the spirit field beside him, then
4:37:59tentatively asked, "Senior brother,
4:38:01shall I come again next time I loosen
4:38:03the soil?" He didn't want to miss the
4:38:05opportunity to obtain top grade
4:38:06spiritual rice, even if it was only 50
4:38:09caddies. Su Chongqing waved his hand,
4:38:12signaling the other party to come
4:38:13closer. Hanu was puzzled, but he still
4:38:16stepped forward. Such Chanqing then took
4:38:18out 50 caddies of second grade spirit
4:38:20rise from his small storage bag and
4:38:22handed it over saying earnestly, "Could
4:38:24you help me find a suitable spell for
4:38:26wood elemental cultivators in the
4:38:28market? The best movement and defense.
4:38:31Offensive spells are also acceptable.
4:38:33This is a deposit. Any overpayment will
4:38:35be refunded and any underpayment will be
4:38:37collected later." Okay. Although Han Su
4:38:40was puzzled, he did not hesitate and was
4:38:43even afraid that the other party would
4:38:44change his mind. As for why Su Chongqing
4:38:47needs magic, he was curious but dared
4:38:49not ask. After all, the more you know
4:38:52about certain things, the worse the
4:38:53outcome may be. As long as I can
4:38:55consistently obtain top quality
4:38:57spiritual rice, what does it matter if I
4:38:59have to work like a beast of burden?
4:39:01With the addition of another 50 caddies
4:39:03of top grade spirit rice from a second
4:39:05grade spirit field, Su Chonqing still
4:39:07had 2,400 caddies left. Chapter 32. The
4:39:10foot of the mountain is all black soil.
4:39:13A rendevu with senior brotherly. Chapter
4:39:1632. The foot of the mountain is all
4:39:18black soil. And we made an appointment
4:39:20with senior brotherly. Watching Han
4:39:22Su<unk>s figure gradually disappear into
4:39:24the distance. Su Chongqing withdrew his
4:39:26gaze. At the same time, he was very
4:39:28curious. They wanted to know what kind
4:39:30of cultivation technique the other party
4:39:32would bring from the market for rogue
4:39:34cultivators. As long as it's suitable
4:39:36for cultivation with a wood elemental
4:39:38route, there will be absolutely no
4:39:39problem. Moreover, with the help of a
4:39:41cheat system, one can instantly reach
4:39:44the maximum level. With a lifespan of
4:39:46over 70,000 days, he was already
4:39:48ravenously thirsty. Immediately
4:39:50afterwards, the man and the dog headed
4:39:52back towards the Rocky Mountain. The
4:39:55situation on the mountain has been
4:39:56learned, but there's still one cave we
4:39:58haven't entered. Since it's still early,
4:40:00I can go take a look. Soon, Su Chongqing
4:40:03returned to the foot of Stone Mountain.
4:40:05The cave is on the other side. It's
4:40:07fairly well hidden. The entrance is
4:40:09rather low and narrow. Given Su
4:40:11Chongqing<unk>s height and build, he had
4:40:13to duck and turn sideways to enter. In
4:40:15contrast, the little yellow dog didn't
4:40:17have this restriction and darted in
4:40:19instantly. Seeing this, Su Chongqing
4:40:21quickly shouted, "Slow down. What if
4:40:24there's danger inside?" He then quickly
4:40:26followed. "The deeper you go, the dimmer
4:40:28the light becomes." Fortunately, the
4:40:30passage was straight and had no corners.
4:40:33We've reached the end of the road after
4:40:34about 10 m. At its deepest point, there
4:40:37is only a very small internal space.
4:40:40Such Chongqing glanced around and saw
4:40:42almost nothing except for the little
4:40:44yellow dog. The interior of the cave,
4:40:46like the entire Rocky Mountain, was
4:40:48unremarkable. Woof! The little yellow
4:40:51dog squatted down in the corner, looking
4:40:53very energetic. Su Chongqing said
4:40:55irritably. The air is already bad and
4:40:58then you take a dump. He took a few
4:41:00steps back and then stood on the other
4:41:01side to wait. Not long after, the little
4:41:04yellow dog finished defecating. Then it
4:41:06used its hind legs to push off the
4:41:08ground, attempting to bury the evidence
4:41:10with mud. This is nothing unusual. It's
4:41:13normal behavior. But Su Chongqing
4:41:15glanced at it out of the corner of his
4:41:16eye, and suddenly his eyes widened.
4:41:18However, it wasn't that pile of dog poop
4:41:20that caught his eye. It was the soil
4:41:22that had been kicked aside by the dog's
4:41:24legs. The surface layer is yellow, but
4:41:27the bottom is black. Could it be? Such
4:41:29Chan ignored the stench and immediately
4:41:31went over. Woof woof. The little yellow
4:41:34dog thought its owner was hungry and
4:41:36instinctively blocked the dog poop. Such
4:41:38Chan pushed it away, then reached out
4:41:40and touched the black soil. It feels
4:41:43somewhat hard to the touch. However, it
4:41:45becomes quite sticky after being crushed
4:41:47with your fingers. Black soil. It's
4:41:49definitely black soil. Such Chanqing
4:41:51exclaimed excitedly. Woof woof. The
4:41:54little yellow dog tilted its head,
4:41:56looking at its owner with a puzzled
4:41:57expression. Little thing, you've done a
4:42:00great job this time. Such Chonqing
4:42:02immediately picked up the dog and rubbed
4:42:04its head angrily. Next, he cast with
4:42:06spirit entanglement three layers.
4:42:09Released the 10 grass seeds stored in
4:42:11the spirit seal. The moment they landed,
4:42:13these grass seeds evolved into 10 black
4:42:15iron vines. Then under Su
4:42:18Chongqing<unk>s control, it burrowed
4:42:19around. Gradually, the surface layer of
4:42:22yellow soil was turned over. Just as he
4:42:24had guessed, the ground below was all
4:42:26black soil. Although it has been buried
4:42:28for too long, its quality may not be as
4:42:31good as that of the spirit fields
4:42:32outside, but it's perfectly fine to use
4:42:34it to grow the most common type of rice.
4:42:37After a period of cultivation, it might
4:42:39be able to grow other spiritual plants.
4:42:41Not long after, Su Chongqing left the
4:42:44abandoned cave with the little yellow
4:42:45dog. Once outside, he couldn't help but
4:42:48take a closer look at the rocky mountain
4:42:50before him. The more I look at it, the
4:42:52more suspicious it seems, or rather
4:42:54deliberate. If it's a normal mountain,
4:42:56then there's no problem. But it happens
4:42:58to be a rocky mountain. Unfortunately,
4:43:01there is a lot of black soil underneath.
4:43:03Unsurprisingly, this place was once a
4:43:05sacred field. Because of the black soil,
4:43:08it is at least grade two. I just don't
4:43:10know who deliberately covered it up.
4:43:12However, not many people know about this
4:43:14at the moment, especially now. Perhaps
4:43:16only Su Chonqing remains. We'll secretly
4:43:19cultivate some of it. Then Su Chonqing
4:43:21was able to grow spirit rice while also
4:43:23growing other spirit plants. You should
4:43:25know that if it weren't for the
4:43:26four-leaf clover occupying a portion of
4:43:28the spirit field, the yield this time
4:43:30will definitely be more than 3,500 gene.
4:43:34It was almost noon. For lunch, Such
4:43:36Choning specially prepared a lavish meal
4:43:38for the little yellow dog. There's
4:43:40nothing we can do about it. It just did
4:43:42a great job this time. After finishing
4:43:44his meal, Su Chongqing washed the dishes
4:43:46and then took out a communication
4:43:48talisman from his small storage bag.
4:43:50This was given to me by Liang Kai when
4:43:52he came. We haven't been in contact
4:43:54privately since. Spring is almost over.
4:43:57As agreed, 800 caddies of second grade
4:43:59spirit rice were to be sent to Leing. Is
4:44:02senior brotherly here? What is it,
4:44:04Junior Brother Sue? Don't we have a
4:44:06partnership? Uh, you've prepared 800
4:44:08caddies of grade two spirit rice. I
4:44:11managed to gather the necessary pieces
4:44:13though I didn't fail in my mission. Go
4:44:15east and after crossing three hills, you
4:44:18will see a river. I am on the other side
4:44:19of the river. Good. Communication ended.
4:44:23Such Choning put the communication
4:44:24talisman back into the small storage bag
4:44:27and then began preparations. The little
4:44:29yellow dog, having eaten and drunk its
4:44:31fill, lay down comfortably by the door
4:44:33for a rest. Even when its owner
4:44:35approaches, it's too lazy to move, just
4:44:38wagging its tail peruncterly. Su
4:44:40Chongqing smiled and instructed, "I'm
4:44:42going out for a bit. Take good care of
4:44:44the house. If there are bad guys, run
4:44:47quickly and hide in that abandoned
4:44:48cave." He closed the door and then
4:44:50walked towards Le Sanankai. After
4:44:52crossing three hills, we finally saw a
4:44:54river. The river water was quite clear.
4:44:57There are quite a few small white fish
4:44:58inside. Across the river stands a stone
4:45:01house and two acres of sacred fields.
4:45:03This shows that Liang Kai was a
4:45:05care-free and detached person. Such
4:45:07Chongqing went around to the other side
4:45:09and crossed the river using the pontoon
4:45:11bridge. Upon reaching the other side, he
4:45:14immediately approached the fence gate.
4:45:16Why? Because Li Sanankai was already
4:45:18waiting at the door. Senior brother.
4:45:20Upon approaching, Su Choning quickly
4:45:22bowed. Come in, Liangai said, opening
4:45:25the fence gate. The two immediately
4:45:27walked side by side. Su Chonqing looked
4:45:30at the two acres of spiritual fields on
4:45:32either side with a curious expression.
4:45:34One mu approximately 0.16 acres is
4:45:38planted with the familiar ling rice.
4:45:40Judging from its condition, the quality
4:45:42is absolutely top-notch. The spiritual
4:45:44plants in the other acre of spiritual
4:45:46field were relatively unfamiliar. It
4:45:49resembles an orchid but is multicolored.
4:45:51After noticing this, Lee Sankai
4:45:53explained, "This is called Kylon. It is
4:45:55specially used to make talisman ink and
4:45:57is a spiritual plant specially supplied
4:46:00to the Yushua pavilion. One acre yields
4:46:02approximately 1,500 plants which can be
4:46:05sold for five mid-grade spirit stones.
4:46:08Five. Such Choning asked in surprise.
4:46:11Leankai continued. Moreover, it is
4:46:14harvested every 2 months. Su
4:46:16Choning<unk>s expression changed
4:46:17slightly. Once every two months. There
4:46:20are 12 months in a year. That's
4:46:21equivalent to harvesting six times a
4:46:23year. If each time it's five mid-grade
4:46:25spirit stones, that year there were a
4:46:28total of 30 mid-grade spirit stones.
4:46:30This is equivalent to 3,000 low-grade
4:46:33spirit stones. Li Sanankai seemed to
4:46:35sense Su Chongqing<unk>s interest, but
4:46:37then changed the subject. But not
4:46:39everyone can grow it. Huh? Su Chongqing
4:46:42was taken aback. Li Sanankai shrugged.
4:46:44First of all, you must reach the late
4:46:46stage ofQi refining. Secondly, one must
4:46:49have connections within the Imperial
4:46:51Water Pavilion. Such Chongqing wasn't
4:46:53stupid. He immediately understood. I
4:46:55have no problem with my own abilities.
4:46:57But the second requirement cannot be met
4:46:59at all. The only person he could vaguely
4:47:01recognize in the Imperial Water Pavilion
4:47:03was by Linger, unlikely Sanankai, who
4:47:06had his cousin Lee Ling by backing him
4:47:08up. This is a genius who has reached the
4:47:10earthly grade golden core at a very
4:47:12young age. The two then arrived at the
4:47:14stone house. There is a pavilion here.
4:47:17Inside there is a stone table. Hot water
4:47:19and tea leaves were already prepared
4:47:21above. Without wasting words, Su
4:47:24Chongqing decisively took out 800
4:47:26caddies of second grade spiritual rice,
4:47:28top grade spirit rice. Lissi's initial
4:47:31perception was casual, but his eyes
4:47:33widened in surprise. The 800 caddies of
4:47:36top grade spirit rice produced from the
4:47:38second grade spirit field were neither
4:47:40more nor less. In fact, during their
4:47:42first collaboration, he was prepared
4:47:44that the other party would not be able
4:47:46to reach 800 gene for 100 kg. After all,
4:47:50for many spirit farmers who have just
4:47:51joined the core of the spirit field,
4:47:54completing each quarter's tasks is
4:47:55already a struggle. It would be a bit
4:47:57difficult to hand over another 800
4:47:59caddies of second grade spirit rice.
4:48:02Now, this junior brother Sue has not
4:48:04only not disappointed him, but has even
4:48:06far exceeded his expectations. Liengai
4:48:09felt extremely fortunate that he had
4:48:10helped the other party when they were on
4:48:12the outside. Now, he has even brought Su
4:48:15Chongqing into his cousin Leing<unk>s
4:48:17team. This top grade spiritual rice is
4:48:19something that ordinary people cannot
4:48:21grow. Even those who are skilled in it
4:48:23can only do so. Judging from
4:48:25appearances, this junior brother Sue has
4:48:27a real talent for farming. Immediately,
4:48:29Liang Kai said, "Junior Brother Sue, you
4:48:32also know the current market share of
4:48:34grade two spirit rice. But our
4:48:36cooperation will obviously not be like
4:48:38the market." Su Chonqing expressed his
4:48:41understanding. Liang Kai took out four
4:48:43spirit stones from his storage bag and
4:48:45handed them over. Of course, your senior
4:48:47brother won't bully you. While a 1
4:48:49minute and 1.5 seconds ratio is no
4:48:52longer feasible at the current market
4:48:53rate, a 1:7 ratio is still achievable.
4:48:56Su Chongqing took the money and saw that
4:48:58it was indeed four mid-grade spirit
4:49:00stones. How? Not much. If we add the
4:49:04mid-grade spirit stone given before,
4:49:06this transaction yielded five mid-grade
4:49:08spirit stones. It's a situation where
4:49:10you neither lose money nor make a
4:49:12profit, but its strength lies in its
4:49:14stability. Now, Su Chongqing has 10
4:49:17mid-grade spirit stones in his
4:49:19possession. Chapter 33, Lee Lingbi<unk>s
4:49:21birthday. The powers of the Tianuan
4:49:23realm. Chapter 33, Lee Lingbi<unk>s
4:49:26birthday. Li Sanankai, a member of the
4:49:28Tan Yuan realm, raised his teacup,
4:49:31gesturing for everyone to drink
4:49:32together. After taking a sip, he said,
4:49:35"By the way, there's something else you
4:49:37might be interested in." Such Chanqing
4:49:39held the teacup in his hand but felt it
4:49:41was a bit too hot so he didn't drink
4:49:43from it. Instead, he asked curiously,
4:49:45"What is it?" Liang Kai smiled and said,
4:49:48"In a few days, it will be my cousin
4:49:50Leing<unk>s birthday. We will hold a
4:49:52banquet at the Yushua Pavilion. Then
4:49:54upon hearing this, Su Chanqing took out
4:49:56a spirit stone from his small storage
4:49:58bag, making up five mid-grade spirit
4:50:00stones, and handed them over, then said,
4:50:03"Happy birthday to him." Seeing this, Li
4:50:06Sanankai didn't take it, but instead
4:50:08waved his hand and said, "That's not
4:50:10what I meant. Don't misunderstand."
4:50:12"Huh?" Such Chaning seemed slightly
4:50:14surprised. Li Sanankai explained, "Since
4:50:17you have successfully submitted 800 gene
4:50:19of grade 2 spiritual rice, it means you
4:50:22have officially joined our team. You can
4:50:24also attend the birthday party then." Su
4:50:26Chongqing blinked. Since it's a
4:50:28birthday, I have to give a birthday
4:50:29present. Consider these five mid-grade
4:50:32spirit stones a gift from me. Le
4:50:34Sanankai shook his head and said, "No,
4:50:36the 800 caddies of top grade spirit rice
4:50:38is the birthday gift you gave me. It is
4:50:41much more precious than spirit stones.
4:50:43Currently, it is monopolized by five
4:50:45major forces. Resources are becoming
4:50:47increasingly scarce." Seeing that the
4:50:49other party had refused repeatedly, Su
4:50:52Chongqing knew that continuing to insist
4:50:54might affect his impression in Lie mind.
4:50:56So, he had no choice but to withdraw all
4:50:59his refusal. Of course, the most
4:51:01important point. I'm not some kind of s.
4:51:03There's no need for me to rush around
4:51:05trying to please them. Le Sanankai
4:51:07revealed a satisfied expression. I will
4:51:09use a communication talisman to notify
4:51:11my junior brother so that we can meet in
4:51:13advance and then head to the royal water
4:51:15pavilion together. Okay. Su Chonqing
4:51:19nodded, then asked in confusion. Senior
4:51:21brother, I heard that senior brother
4:51:23Leing lives on a sacred mountain. Why is
4:51:25he celebrating his birthday at the
4:51:27Imperial Water Pavilion this time? Le
4:51:29Sanankai put down his teacup and
4:51:31answered. Firstly, my cousin<unk>s
4:51:33master is the highest administrator of
4:51:35the Imperial Water Pavilion. Secondly,
4:51:37his primary cultivation method is the
4:51:39water spiritual route. Su Chongqing
4:51:42smiled awkwardly. I thought that the
4:51:44mutual generation spiritual route meant
4:51:46cultivating all three spiritual roots.
4:51:49Lienkai shrugged. It is indeed possible
4:51:51to study them together, but it will take
4:51:53more time and a lot of resources. My
4:51:56cousin wants to participate in the
4:51:58southern light secret realm which opens
4:52:00only once every 50 years. Only those who
4:52:03have reached the golden core stage can
4:52:04enter this realm. Su Chongqing
4:52:06understood. For normal cultivators, time
4:52:09is limited. Even geniuses choose to
4:52:11cultivate only one type of spiritual
4:52:13route. The extra spiritual route is more
4:52:15inclined towards support. After that,
4:52:18their conversation no longer revolved
4:52:20around Lee Lingbi. Instead, they chatted
4:52:22casually. We talk about whatever comes
4:52:24to mind. After all, both Su Chongqing
4:52:27and Li Sanankai were alone. Having
4:52:29finally found someone to talk to, I
4:52:31naturally didn't want to leave too soon.
4:52:33Su Chongqing glanced at the spirit field
4:52:35behind him seemingly casually and then
4:52:37asked, "Senior brother Lee, would you
4:52:39like me to help you harvest it? Help me
4:52:41harvest?" Li asked in surprise. Su
4:52:44Chongqing explained briefly. I wanted to
4:52:47practice my harvesting skills, but the
4:52:49spiritual rice is no longer enough. Li
4:52:52Sanankai suddenly realized, "You want to
4:52:54help me harvest that colorful orchid?"
4:52:56"Yes, yes, yes." Su Chongqing nodded
4:52:58vigorously. Liengai had no doubts and
4:53:01immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll let you
4:53:04know next month." Su Chongqing was
4:53:06immediately satisfied and bowed, saying,
4:53:08"Thank you for your kindness, senior
4:53:10brother." When Su Chongqing returned
4:53:13home, it was already evening. I had a
4:53:15long and fruitful conversation with
4:53:17Senior Brotherly this time. I have
4:53:19gained a better understanding of the
4:53:20core of the spirit field. It also gives
4:53:23you a general understanding of the
4:53:24entire tanuan realm. This tanuan realm
4:53:28has three top immortal sects. They are
4:53:31Donging immortal sect, dragon tiger
4:53:33immortal sect, inviting the moon
4:53:36immortal sect. Among them, the dragon
4:53:38tiger immortal sect has the oldest
4:53:40lineage dating back tens of thousands of
4:53:43years. The daunting immortal sect has
4:53:45existed for a shorter period, but it is
4:53:47still over 10,000 years. As for the
4:53:50inviting moon immortal sect, it is quite
4:53:52mysterious and female disciples make up
4:53:54the majority of its members. These three
4:53:57immortal sects are the highest ruling
4:53:59forces in the entire Tianuan realm.
4:54:01Below that are the five great dynasties
4:54:03that occupy the five regions. They are
4:54:06eastern plains, great Yu dynasty,
4:54:09southern ice plains, Chiian Yuan
4:54:11dynasty, the western mountains, Liua
4:54:13dynasty, northern desert, northern Luo
4:54:16dynasty, central battlefield, Black Rust
4:54:19dynasty. Further down the line are some
4:54:21of the more famous cultivation families.
4:54:23Among the more famous ones are Luibai,
4:54:26Shir, Fulling O Yang, and Nanu Wooi.
4:54:29These cultivation families have a
4:54:30history of over a thousand years, some
4:54:32even several thousand years. It has deep
4:54:35connections with the three major
4:54:36immortal sects and the five major
4:54:38dynasties. The Lee family including Lee
4:54:40Lingbi and Li Sanankai is also a very
4:54:43famous family of cultivators. The Jeang
4:54:45family including Jeang and Jang Su also
4:54:49held a prominent position in the outside
4:54:50world. In the Donging immortal sect,
4:54:53each type of spiritual root has at least
4:54:55one large cultivation family. Over at
4:54:58the Imperial Water Pavilion, the genius
4:55:00Lee Lingbi, who possesses three
4:55:02spiritual roots that complement each
4:55:03other, has appeared. As a result, the
4:55:06Lee family status rose accordingly. If
4:55:08Leing can successfully break through to
4:55:10the Earth Golden Course stage, the Lee
4:55:13family will become the dominant family.
4:55:15As for Ling, things turned out
4:55:17differently than Su Chongqing expected.
4:55:20Surprisingly, the first place wasn't
4:55:21held by the Jeang family, but by the
4:55:23Rome family. But so far, Such Chanqing
4:55:26has never met a Rome family spiritual
4:55:28farmer. But it doesn't matter. After
4:55:30all, it's a very ancient cultivation
4:55:33family, inheriting the power of even the
4:55:35oldest traditions. Ultimately, they will
4:55:38all gradually decline with the passage
4:55:40of time. Only someone like Su Chongqing,
4:55:43who stands at top the river of time, can
4:55:45achieve true eternity. Several days have
4:55:48passed in the blink of an eye. Su
4:55:50Chonqing was not leisurely. On the
4:55:52contrary, he was very busy. These past
4:55:54few days, we've been clearing out some
4:55:56caves at the foot of the Rocky Mountain.
4:55:58In addition, it is irrigated with spring
4:56:00water every day. Although it still
4:56:02cannot compare to the second grade
4:56:04spiritual field outside, but planting
4:56:06things like ling rice or fourleaf clover
4:56:08shouldn't be a big problem. At this
4:56:10moment, Su Chongqing sensed a
4:56:12fluctuation of spiritual power in the
4:56:14communication talisman, so he took it
4:56:16out of the small storage bag. Junior
4:56:18brother Sue, I am here. Today is my
4:56:21cousin's birthday. Come over. Okay, I'll
4:56:23be right there. Okay, I'll wait for you.
4:56:25The communication was brief, but Su
4:56:28Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up. This is the
4:56:30birthday of Lee Lingbi, a core disciple.
4:56:32He's sure to meet many impressive
4:56:34people. Therefore, he made a special
4:56:36effort to tidy up. Then I prepared
4:56:38dinner for the little yellow dog. Only
4:56:40then did he set off to leave the same
4:56:42path, crossing three hills. Then we
4:56:44crossed the clear river. They arrived at
4:56:46Lissa's fence gate once again. The other
4:56:49person remained in the pavilion,
4:56:51leisurely sipping tea and patiently
4:56:53waiting. Upon seeing that people had
4:56:55arrived, the first thing they did was
4:56:56not to leave, but to let Su Chongqing
4:56:59rest. There's still plenty of time
4:57:01before the birthday party tonight, so
4:57:02there's no need to rush. Leankai seemed
4:57:05to sense Su Shitty's nervousness, so he
4:57:07instructed him. Just follow me then. Su
4:57:09Chongqing nodded. Okay. As a spirit
4:57:12farmer who has been a core member of the
4:57:14spirit field for less than a year, it's
4:57:16amazing that I was able to attend the
4:57:18birthday banquet of a core disciple like
4:57:20Leingai. It would be impossible not to
4:57:22be excited. I was even a little
4:57:24apprehensive, but more than anything,
4:57:26it's anticipation. Chapter 34. The Black
4:57:29tortois' companion beast, thirsty for
4:57:31spiritual roots. Chapter 34. The Black
4:57:34tortois' companion beast, thirsty for
4:57:36its spiritual roots. A yellow flying
4:57:38paper crane floats downstream. There
4:57:41were two people standing on it. One of
4:57:42them is Li Sanankai. One is Su
4:57:45Chongqing. As they flew further and
4:57:47further away, a large dense forest
4:57:50suddenly appeared ahead. Low growls
4:57:52could be heard from the woods from time
4:57:53to time. Leankai pointed over there and
4:57:56introduced. After passing this forest,
4:57:58you will reach the spirit beast valley.
4:58:00If you have any needs in the future, you
4:58:02can go deeper in this direction. Okay.
4:58:05Such Chanqing glanced at him again upon
4:58:07hearing this. They continued forward for
4:58:09about the time it takes for an incense
4:58:11stick to burn. Suddenly, the surrounding
4:58:13terrain changed, becoming like a
4:58:15continuous mountain range. Every now and
4:58:18then, you can see huge craters appearing
4:58:19on the ground. Some are very shallow,
4:58:22some are bottomless. The golden
4:58:24spiritual energy in the air gradually
4:58:26became denser. It even had a rusty
4:58:28smell. Leankai continued, "The casting
4:58:31peak is right above us. Be careful when
4:58:33you pass by as occasionally discarded
4:58:35artifacts fall down. Be careful not to
4:58:37get hit. Su Chonqing looked up but
4:58:40couldn't see the so-called forging peak
4:58:42at all and couldn't help but joke.
4:58:44Shouldn't we be wearing helmets? Li
4:58:46Sanankai was stunned for a moment, not
4:58:49quite understanding, but still waved his
4:58:51hand. That's not the case. There was a
4:58:53noise when this piece of junk fell. You
4:58:55could hear it from far away. No sooner
4:58:57had the words left his mouth than a
4:58:59whooshing sound came from ahead.
4:59:01Immediately afterwards, the two saw a
4:59:03burning fireball fall from the sky.
4:59:05Because they are so far apart, it is
4:59:07impossible to tell their exact size, but
4:59:10you can still feel a heat wave sweeping
4:59:12in from afar. Both of them had what
4:59:14elemental roots, so they were very
4:59:16uncomfortable. Normally, you should stay
4:59:18away from this situation. Such Chonqing
4:59:20discovered that quite a few people were
4:59:22approaching him. Li Sanankai explained,
4:59:24"These people are disciples with earth
4:59:26spiritual roots from the earth veins.
4:59:28They occasionally find some heavy
4:59:30discarded artifacts to train their
4:59:32bodies. Or you could take them to the
4:59:33markets for independent cultivators
4:59:35outside. There are independent
4:59:36cultivators there who specialize in
4:59:38buying up trash from top tier sects like
4:59:40us. No wonder it came out of the pit. Su
4:59:43Chongqing suddenly realized. The next
4:59:45period of time, or rather the distance,
4:59:48almost all of them were shrouded in the
4:59:50forging peak. A fireball would
4:59:52occasionally fall from the sky. Some are
4:59:54very large, some are very small.
4:59:56Regardless of size, they were all
4:59:58snatched up by the disciples with earth
5:00:00spirit roots. Such Chongqing and Liang
5:00:03Kai, relying on this flying paper crane,
5:00:05spent a long time finally getting away.
5:00:08The rest of the journey was relatively
5:00:10normal. It's either an empty lot, it's
5:00:12either grassy. As they got closer, Su
5:00:14Chongqing noticed that the number of
5:00:16streams, rivers, and swamps around them
5:00:18was gradually increasing. It wasn't very
5:00:20noticeable at first. You could only see
5:00:22it occasionally, but soon everything was
5:00:25sparkling. Various tributaries emerged
5:00:28one after another. The moisture in the
5:00:30air is becoming increasingly
5:00:31concentrated. About 10 more minutes
5:00:33passed. Suddenly, countless tributaries
5:00:36began to converge. Eventually, an
5:00:38enormous lake formed in front of them.
5:00:40But strangely, the water was black. Near
5:00:43the center of the lake, there is a
5:00:44strange pavilion suspended in the air.
5:00:47It has a total of nine floors. Each
5:00:49floor is at least 5 m high. Ripples
5:00:51occasionally appeared on the surface.
5:00:53You can even see big fish leaping out.
5:00:56This appears to be a n-story pavilion
5:00:58formed of water. Liengai said, "We've
5:01:01arrived at the Imperial Water Pavilion."
5:01:03Su Chongqing<unk>s Adams apple bobbed
5:01:05and it took him a while to speak. Senior
5:01:07brother, could it be that the Imperial
5:01:09Water Pavilion is made of water? Liang
5:01:12Kai didn't speak, but simply nodded
5:01:14slightly. As the two drew closer, more
5:01:16and more paper cranes are appearing.
5:01:18Some are incredibly huge. There were
5:01:20about 10 people standing on it. Some are
5:01:22quite tiny. It can only accommodate one
5:01:25person sitting cross-legged. But it's
5:01:27not just paper cranes. There are many
5:01:29other flying props as well, such as
5:01:31boats, rafts, shuttles, and mythical
5:01:33beasts. Such Chongqing even saw a blood
5:01:36red flag fluttering in the wind. Just as
5:01:38the two were about to approach the Royal
5:01:40Water Pavilion. Suddenly, the lake water
5:01:43below began to churn inexplicably. The
5:01:46air, or rather this entire space, was
5:01:49trembling. This caused many flying props
5:01:51to become extremely unstable and start
5:01:53shaking constantly. The watery aura in
5:01:56the air became increasingly chaotic,
5:01:58turning into something eerie. Everyone
5:02:00looked down and their expressions
5:02:02changed drastically. A huge and
5:02:04ferocious snake head with a yellow snake
5:02:07body hundreds of feet long broke out of
5:02:09the water. A little below its head, it
5:02:11has a pair of huge fleshy wings. The
5:02:14moment it opened in the air, it
5:02:15practically blotted out the sky. A large
5:02:18area instantly became pitch black. The
5:02:20terrifying atmosphere made one feel as
5:02:22if they had fallen into an icy abyss.
5:02:25Such Chanqing hurriedly shouted, "Senior
5:02:27brother, what should we do?" Li Sanankai
5:02:30struggled to control the flying paper
5:02:32crane, forcibly stabilizing it before
5:02:34replying, "Don't panic. There is a
5:02:36Schwan Wu suppressed below the Yushu
5:02:38pavilion, and this Tinga is its
5:02:40companion beast." Once Schwan Wu falls
5:02:42into slumber, Tunga will emerge and stir
5:02:45up trouble. But don't forget this is the
5:02:47territory of the Imperial Water
5:02:49Pavilion. Sure enough, as soon as he
5:02:51finished speaking, the black Imperial
5:02:53Water Pavilion in front of them suddenly
5:02:55trembled. Immediately afterwards,
5:02:57enormous yellow talismans flew out from
5:03:00within. Su Chongqing looked up and found
5:03:02that the contents of the talisman were
5:03:04obscure and difficult to understand. The
5:03:06characters don't look like characters,
5:03:08and the symbols don't look like symbols,
5:03:10but when strung together, they exude a
5:03:12heartpounding energy. In an instant,
5:03:15nine enormous yellow talisman swept
5:03:17towards the tongue snake, which was
5:03:19about to cause trouble. It was given
5:03:21absolutely no time or chance to resist.
5:03:24They released streaks of brilliant blue
5:03:26spiritual light, which quickly
5:03:28intertwined. Instantly, it transformed
5:03:30into a vast net, trapping the hundred
5:03:32jonglong yellow snake. Although the
5:03:34tongue snake struggled continuously,
5:03:37causing the large net woven from
5:03:38spiritual light to make a sizzling
5:03:40sound, it did not cause any substantial
5:03:43damage. Before long, the large snake was
5:03:46forcibly pushed into the dark lake
5:03:47water. This sense of crisis came quickly
5:03:50and went quickly. They become active as
5:03:52soon as summer arrives. Why can't this
5:03:54thing snake be completely suppressed?
5:03:56I've heard that either the black
5:03:58tortoise or the tongue snake must
5:03:59appear. They cannot both be asleep at
5:04:02the same time. Complaints could be heard
5:04:04from the surrounding area. Seeing that
5:04:06everything was all right, Su Chongqing
5:04:08finally felt relieved. Subsequently,
5:04:10under Lysansai's control, the flying
5:04:12paper crane gradually approached the
5:04:14first floor of the Royal Water Pavilion.
5:04:17The moment Su Chongqing landed, he heard
5:04:19a splash of water beneath his feet. It
5:04:22wasn't hard soil at all. It was still
5:04:24black water. Strangely, it doesn't sink
5:04:27in. Instead, it has a peculiar buoyancy.
5:04:30Leankai reminded him, "Each floor of the
5:04:32Imperial Water Pavilion has its purpose.
5:04:35The first floor is mainly for issuing
5:04:37tasks to formal disciples with water
5:04:39spirit roots. My cousin's birthday party
5:04:41is on the third floor. Let's go. Su
5:04:44Chongqing quickly followed, looking
5:04:45around with curiosity. The Imperial
5:04:48Water Pavilion is enormous. It feels
5:04:50like it's expanding silently. Upon
5:04:52entering the first floor, one discovers
5:04:54an interior space comparable to a plaza.
5:04:57You can see many disciples with water
5:04:59elemental roots. There are both men and
5:05:01women. There are both old and young
5:05:03people. Upon entering, Such Chongqing
5:05:06had a very peculiar feeling. My body
5:05:08felt like it was growing and developing.
5:05:10He didn't ask Li Sankai because it was
5:05:12easy to understand. The feeling of
5:05:14development is likely closely related to
5:05:16the spiritual root. The element itself
5:05:19is water-based and wood-based. And this
5:05:21place is full of water elemental roots,
5:05:23and the water elemental energy is
5:05:25extremely rich. A combination of factors
5:05:28has made the wood spirit root
5:05:30exceptionally thirsty. Chapter 35. Jang
5:05:32Su shock at seeing PMO again. Chapter
5:05:3535. Jang Su shock at meeting PMO again.
5:05:39Each floor of the Imperial Water
5:05:40Pavilion has strict requirements for
5:05:42cultivation level. Starting from the
5:05:44second level, one must be at least in
5:05:46the late stage ofQi refining. As for the
5:05:48third level, one must reach the
5:05:50foundation establishment stage. Such
5:05:52Chanqing and Li Sankai were both formal
5:05:54disciples with the wood spirit route,
5:05:56and neither of them had reached the
5:05:58foundation establishment stage, so they
5:06:00shouldn't have been able to advance. But
5:06:02who made it so that the person holding
5:06:03the birthday party on the third floor
5:06:05was Leing by? This genius has three
5:06:08spiritual roots that complent each
5:06:10other. Not only is he young, but he also
5:06:12wants to strive for the golden elixir of
5:06:14earth. Moreover, his master was a nent
5:06:17soul true lord. Of course, he is also
5:06:19the highest ranking administrator of the
5:06:21Imperial Water Pavilion. Therefore,
5:06:23Leingai had the right to let Su
5:06:25Chongqing come up. When we got to the
5:06:27third floor, there were already quite a
5:06:29few people waiting there. They have all
5:06:31kinds of spiritual roots. They were all
5:06:33unfamiliar faces, but the main
5:06:35character, Leiling, has not yet arrived.
5:06:38Li Sanankai led Su Chongqing to sit down
5:06:40on the other side. Let's rest for a bit.
5:06:43Such Chongqing nodded and then they sat
5:06:45down together. It happened to be near
5:06:47the window. Su Chongqing glanced
5:06:48outside. You can see many people moving
5:06:51around using flying devices. Suddenly, a
5:06:54red carp swam over. It is very fat. Her
5:06:57belly was round and plump. They look
5:06:59like they've eaten a lot. Su Chongqing
5:07:01raised an eyebrow and tentatively
5:07:03reached out his hand. Upon first contact
5:07:05with the water wall, there is a
5:07:07noticeable layer of resistance, but with
5:07:09a little force, the finger still manages
5:07:11to go in. Next, the whole hand. He
5:07:14quickly caught the big red carp. Just as
5:07:16he was about to pull it out, Le
5:07:17Sanankai, who was standing next to him,
5:07:20was startled and quickly stopped him.
5:07:22Don't do anything reckless. Some of
5:07:24these fish are raised by immortals. If
5:07:26you kill them, I can't protect them.
5:07:28Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing gave an
5:07:30awkward smile and quickly withdrew his
5:07:32hand. The large red carp turned and left
5:07:35after swimming for a while. As time went
5:07:37by, it grew darker and darker. The
5:07:40number of people attending Lee Ling's
5:07:42birthday banquet gradually increased.
5:07:44There are not many people at theQi
5:07:46refining stage. In fact, they are few
5:07:48and far between. Apart from Liang Kai,
5:07:51everyone else was a marginalized person.
5:07:53On the contrary, the foundation building
5:07:55period accounts for the majority of the
5:07:56time. While not all of them are handsome
5:07:59men or beautiful women, they all possess
5:08:01extraordinary charisma. At the Red Maple
5:08:04Valley Market, the female foundation
5:08:06establishment cultivator with the wood
5:08:07spirit route that I had seen at the
5:08:09entrance of Nomin Society was
5:08:11prominently listed. If Su Chongqing
5:08:13remembered correctly, this person's name
5:08:15seemed to be Lu Yuan Yuan. She only
5:08:18brought one male Tauist partner to the
5:08:20birthday banquet this time. He's still a
5:08:22handsome guy. She has a slender figure
5:08:24and delicate features. In his previous
5:08:26life, he would definitely have been a
5:08:28male idol. Many female foundation
5:08:30establishment cultivators looked at him
5:08:32with aggressive eyes. Su Chongqing
5:08:34thought to himself, "They're cultivating
5:08:36immortality. Why are they still judging
5:08:38by looks?" At that moment, a familiar
5:08:41yet unfamiliar face caught his
5:08:43attention. "Be he has a centipede-shaped
5:08:45scar on his face." The chest is
5:08:47embroidered with a white crane pattern.
5:08:49"This time, I didn't carry any weapons.
5:08:52You know him." Lisa's voice rang out
5:08:54from the side. Su Chongqing nodded
5:08:56slightly. I've seen you before at the
5:08:58Red Maple Valley Market. Li Sanankai
5:09:00introduced. This person is called PM Mo.
5:09:03It's a great pity. Originally possessing
5:09:06dual spiritual roots, yet both are
5:09:08mutually destructive spiritual roots.
5:09:10Because fire overcomes metal, the
5:09:12cultivation speed and spell power are
5:09:15all half. But he also possessed
5:09:17exceptional comprehension. and through
5:09:19sheer willpower he managed to cultivate
5:09:21to the foundation establishment stage.
5:09:23His words were full of regret. It's
5:09:25clear that they greatly admire PMO. If
5:09:27they are not mutually destructive dual
5:09:29spiritual roots, but rather mutually
5:09:31reinforcing dual spiritual roots with
5:09:34his exceptional comprehension, PMO
5:09:36should be no weaker than Leing in his
5:09:38current state. But fate played a cruel
5:09:40joke on him. He clearly possesses
5:09:42extremely high comprehension. However,
5:09:45they are two conflicting spiritual
5:09:46roots. Therefore, its position within
5:09:49the Donging immortal sect is somewhat
5:09:51awkward. I started in Linkion and later
5:09:54joined Forging Peak. Finally, he was
5:09:56kicked to Spirit Beast Valley and has
5:09:58been going around in circles all these
5:10:00years. This is why you can see traces of
5:10:02many things in PMO. Why not let him
5:10:05repair the sword pill? Then, let's
5:10:06practice with our swords. Did Rayon have
5:10:09long hair? Just shave your head.
5:10:11Therefore, PMO gives everyone the
5:10:13impression of being both rebellious and
5:10:15stubborn. Perhaps they sensed that they
5:10:17were being watched. Pmo looked over
5:10:19instinctively and was stunned. Su
5:10:21Chongqing<unk>s face was unfamiliar one
5:10:23second, but familiar the next. It even
5:10:25made him thirsty. Immediately, Pmo
5:10:28walked over excitedly. Upon seeing this,
5:10:31Leansai's expression changed slightly,
5:10:33and he immediately became vigilant.
5:10:35Although he greatly admired PMO, but
5:10:38their reputation over the years has been
5:10:39quite poor. Once drunk, he's bound to
5:10:42get into a fight. We're just starting to
5:10:44look for people to do it. Later, they
5:10:46simply started fighting with spirit
5:10:47beasts. The scar on his face was left by
5:10:50a powerful spirit beast. It's you.
5:10:52However, PMO ignored Liang Kai and
5:10:55stared straight at Su Chongqing. Long
5:10:57time no see. Such Chongqing smiled
5:10:59slightly. Upon seeing this, Liang Kai
5:11:02was startled. You really know him? What
5:11:04he meant by having seen was simply that
5:11:06he had seen Pmo. Unexpectedly, the two
5:11:09actually knew each other. That was
5:11:11indeed a bit unexpected. Po licked his
5:11:13thick lips with his tongue, then asked,
5:11:15"Did you bring it?" Such Chanqing shook
5:11:18his head and said, "I'm not available
5:11:20this spring." Upon hearing this, Pmo
5:11:22showed a regretful expression and asked
5:11:24unwillingly, "Then when will you get it
5:11:26done?" Such Chonqing thought about it
5:11:28carefully and said, "Summer, I guess."
5:11:31In the spring, the focus is on
5:11:33cultivating spirit rice. Production
5:11:35volume trumps everything. Therefore, no
5:11:37spirit rice wine was brewed. But things
5:11:40change starting in the summer. Po nodded
5:11:42slightly. Okay, remember to let me know
5:11:44when you're done. No problem. Su
5:11:47Chongqing readily agreed. Then Pmo
5:11:49walked to the other side being alone.
5:11:52After a while, Leen asked in a low
5:11:54voice, "What are you talking about?" Su
5:11:56Chongqing explained, "I know how to brew
5:11:58wine." Li Kai suddenly realized, "Oh, I
5:12:01see." Upon seeing how eager PMO was.
5:12:04They're talking about it so
5:12:05mysteriously. They mistakenly believe
5:12:07that the two had some kind of secret. I
5:12:09really didn't expect that this junior
5:12:11brother Sue would actually know how to
5:12:12brew wine. Pmo is a notorious drunkard.
5:12:15So for him to be so eager to buy things,
5:12:17he must be quite something. Su Chongqing
5:12:20smiled and said, "I'll send some to my
5:12:22senior brother to try after it's
5:12:23brewed." Okay. Liengai was genuinely
5:12:26curious about just how good the wine was
5:12:28that PMO was so eager to buy. Leing has
5:12:31arrived. The Rome family is here too.
5:12:34Wow, this birthday party was quite a
5:12:35grand affair. At that moment, a sound
5:12:38came from the entrance. Such Chongqing
5:12:40and the others all looked over. Then
5:12:42came Lee Lingbai, dressed in a purple
5:12:44robe, surrounded by a group of
5:12:46foundation establishment cultivators. He
5:12:49appeared in the sight of everyone on the
5:12:50third floor with a leisurely and
5:12:52carefree demeanor. The people next to
5:12:54him were no ordinary people either. Each
5:12:56and every one of them is a genius at the
5:12:58foundation establishment stage. Let's go
5:13:01see my cousin, Li Sanankai said,
5:13:03standing up. Such Chongqing hurly got up
5:13:05as well. Soon the two arrived at the
5:13:08front. Upon seeing Liang Kai,
5:13:10Leing<unk>s eyes lit up immediately.
5:13:12Cousin. Li Sanankai introduced with a
5:13:14smile. Ling by this is Su Chongqing.
5:13:18Leing shifted his gaze and looked the
5:13:20other person up and down. Although the
5:13:22other person had an ordinary appearance,
5:13:24he did not look down on him. Instead, he
5:13:26said solemnly, "Junior Brother Sue, I'm
5:13:29entrusting the spiritual rice to you
5:13:31from now on." To be honest, he wasn't
5:13:33very interested in his cousin's
5:13:35recommendation. At first, she simply
5:13:37regarded Su Chongqing as an ordinary
5:13:39spiritual farmer who could help
5:13:41alleviate her cousin's burden, nothing
5:13:43more. Unexpectedly, the other party
5:13:45submitted top grade spiritual rice,
5:13:47which contained rich spiritual energy.
5:13:50This point alone is not to be
5:13:51underestimated. In fact, it deserves our
5:13:54utmost attention. Su Chanqin quickly
5:13:56replied, "I will do my best. In fact,
5:13:59these are all interconnected." He gave
5:14:01the other party the finest spiritual
5:14:03rice. The other party became his backer.
5:14:06It's mutually beneficial. Isn't that
5:14:08junior brother Su? One of the wrong
5:14:10family members exclaimed in surprise,
5:14:12"Who, Jung Su? He spent a lot of money
5:14:15this time just to be with the R family
5:14:17and attend Lee Ling<unk>s birthday
5:14:18banquet. The goal of course is to get to
5:14:21know more outstanding young people.
5:14:23Let's see if we can act as a bridge to
5:14:25help plant more rare spiritual plants.
5:14:27Unexpectedly, the junior brother Sue
5:14:29whom I had left behind was also there.
5:14:31Moreover, they were very close to
5:14:33Leingai at this time. The two chatted
5:14:35and laughed. It's obvious at a glance
5:14:37that their relationship is more than
5:14:38just friendship. In contrast, Jang Su
5:14:41followed the Rong family like a lackey.
5:14:43Even though they were both at the
5:14:45foundation establishment stage, they
5:14:47were not qualified to get close to Lee
5:14:48Lingai at all. Chapter 36. Mysterious
5:14:51golden light talisman. Bloodcoled pool
5:14:54of boiling flesh. Chapter 36. Profound
5:14:57origin. Golden light talisman. Boiling
5:15:00flesh in the blood colored pool.
5:15:01Leing<unk>s gaze lingered on Su
5:15:03Chongqing for only a moment. After all,
5:15:06he was the star of this birthday party.
5:15:08After exchanging greetings, Li Sanankai
5:15:10led Su Chongqing back to their previous
5:15:12seats and the two sat down again. At
5:15:15this moment, Lu Yuan Yuan, one of the
5:15:17managers of Nsham Society, spoke first.
5:15:20Let me start by wishing senior brother
5:15:21Lee a happy birthday on behalf of all
5:15:23members of Nsham Society. This mere
5:15:2610,000 catties of grade 2 spirit rice is
5:15:28but a small token of my respect. H those
5:15:32around gasped in shock. They can
5:15:34understand whether it's a thousand kg or
5:15:36even several thousand kg. But Lu Yuan
5:15:39Yuan actually gave away 10,000 caddies
5:15:41of second grade spiritual rice in one
5:15:43go. You should know that the current
5:15:45market ratio is terrifying. This is no
5:15:47longer as simple as giving a birthday
5:15:49gift. This is clearly a way of
5:15:51expressing the degree of importance
5:15:53attached to something. Thank you, Junior
5:15:55Sister. Lu Liingbai was also surprised,
5:15:58her face beaming with a smile. At this
5:16:00moment, another person stepped forward.
5:16:02I, Ron Tong, represent the R family to
5:16:05present 5,000 caddies of grade two
5:16:08spirit rice. Upon hearing that it was
5:16:10the R family, the number one cultivation
5:16:13family in Linton, one immediately
5:16:15understood. Such Chongqing looked over
5:16:17curiously. I found that this man named
5:16:19Rong seemed quite ordinary in every way.
5:16:22Average appearance, an ordinary
5:16:24demeanor, ordinary clothing. If he
5:16:26weren't a member of the R family, you'd
5:16:28think he was just a stranger. But after
5:16:30all, they are the number one cultivation
5:16:32family in the spiritual field, so they
5:16:34should not be underestimated. However,
5:16:36one of the people next to Rong Tong
5:16:38surprised Su Chongqing somewhat. It was
5:16:40Jang Su. I never expected that the other
5:16:43person would be able to attend a
5:16:44birthday party of this caliber. However,
5:16:47judging from the way the other party was
5:16:49standing next to Rom Tong, it must have
5:16:51been obtained by piggybacking. Just like
5:16:53myself, I, Juja, have given away a core
5:16:56part of a 500-year-old demon. Senior
5:16:59Brotherly, please accept this
5:17:01thousand-mile lightning shuttle. This is
5:17:03the yellow earth flag. Planting it in
5:17:05the ground can seal off an area of 100
5:17:08ft. Because Lu Yuan Yuan set a good
5:17:10example, so everyone started giving
5:17:12gifts. Hearing what these people were
5:17:14giving away, Su Chongqing couldn't help
5:17:16but look at Le Sanankai. He asked with
5:17:18his eyes whether he should also send
5:17:20something. However, Li Sankai still
5:17:22shook his head. Remember, these people
5:17:24who give gifts are outsiders. We don't
5:17:26need to be polite with our own people.
5:17:29Such Chonqing was stunned for a moment.
5:17:31Lu Yu and Yuing gave away 10,000 caddies
5:17:33of second grade spirit rice and that
5:17:35Jesi Xiao even gave away the core part
5:17:37of a 500-year-old demon. They were all
5:17:40outsiders. These people invested in
5:17:42Leingai in this way. Logically speaking,
5:17:44they should all be our own people.
5:17:47Otherwise, why would you send such a
5:17:48nice gift? Le San Kai said meaningfully.
5:17:51When you are good enough, especially
5:17:53when you have a powerful backer, you
5:17:55will get used to it. Such Chongqing was
5:17:57stunned. He had assumed that these
5:17:59people were giving gifts because they
5:18:00valued Lee Lingbi. It turns out that
5:18:03this is only one aspect. The real reason
5:18:05seems to be to curry favor with Lee
5:18:07Ling's master. That is the nent sole
5:18:10true lord who is in charge of the entire
5:18:12Imperial Water Pavilion. Indeed,
5:18:14interpersonal relationships and social
5:18:16interactions are indispensable
5:18:18everywhere. With the exception of a few
5:18:20people, almost everyone who attended Lee
5:18:23Ling's birthday banquet this time was
5:18:25giving gifts. It's impossible to tell
5:18:27their size, but they all look incredibly
5:18:29valuable. Even PMO offered a pot of
5:18:31wine. Judging from the pained look on
5:18:33his face, you can tell it's not bad.
5:18:35Next, it was time to eat. The food was
5:18:38plentiful. The most abundant species are
5:18:40fish. After all, the lake is located
5:18:42directly below the Imperial Water
5:18:44Pavilion. It is home to a wide variety
5:18:46of rare and exotic fish. There are even
5:18:49species that have lived for over a
5:18:50hundred years, like this plate of fish
5:18:53soup in front of me. It has a fresh and
5:18:55delicious flavor. The fish meat is
5:18:57extremely springy and chewy. In
5:18:59particular, the spiritual energy
5:19:01contained within it is incredibly rich.
5:19:03In comparison, the second grade spirit
5:19:06rice is far inferior. However, at
5:19:08Leing<unk>s birthday banquet, similar
5:19:10food was served in an endless stream,
5:19:12and there was simply not enough to eat.
5:19:15Half an hour later, Su Chongqing felt
5:19:17his spiritual energy rising steadily. It
5:19:20should be noted that he has maintained
5:19:21four positions since the end of spring.
5:19:23After consuming these spiritually imbued
5:19:26foods, a fifth one was actually
5:19:27conceived. It's easy to imagine how
5:19:30amazing the effects of these delicacies
5:19:32are. However, one could tell from the
5:19:34rapturous expressions of those around
5:19:36them. Obviously, they don't eat this
5:19:38kind of food everyday. Since Lee Lingbi
5:19:40accepted everyone's gifts, he naturally
5:19:42couldn't be stingy. Moreover, this is
5:19:45also one of the manifestations of the
5:19:46power of the Royal Water Pavilion. Just
5:19:49as everyone was enjoying the feast, the
5:19:51surrounding space suddenly shook.
5:19:53Everyone immediately stopped and became
5:19:55cautious. Then, golden threads began to
5:19:58emerge from the nearby water wall. They
5:20:00traced patterns in the air, eventually
5:20:02forming an undulating spiritual symbol.
5:20:05This This seems to be the mysterious
5:20:07golden light talisman, one of the three
5:20:09great talismans of the Imperial Water
5:20:11Pavilion. Such a grand gesture clearly
5:20:14comes from that important person.
5:20:16Greetings, Lord Emojan. In their shock,
5:20:19everyone bowed and clasped their hands
5:20:21in greeting. Leing looked at the
5:20:23mysterious origin golden light talisman
5:20:25before him, his eyes slightly moist.
5:20:28Thank you, master. Having accepted this
5:20:30generous gift, the birthday party ended
5:20:32not long after. Apart from Lu Yu and
5:20:34Yuan, they left one after another. What
5:20:37are you waiting for? Rung Tong looked at
5:20:39Jang Su who was hesitating beside him.
5:20:41And nothing, it's nothing. Jang Su gave
5:20:44an awkward smile. He originally wanted
5:20:46to wait for Su Chongqing to come out so
5:20:48the two of them could have a proper
5:20:49chat. To my utter surprise, even Rong
5:20:52Tong came out. The other party was still
5:20:54inside. Seeing that Rong Tong was
5:20:56becoming increasingly dissatisfied, Jang
5:20:58Su had no choice but to give up waiting.
5:21:01on the other side on the third floor of
5:21:03the Imperial Water Pavilion. Leing said
5:21:06earnestly, "Junior Sister Lu, your gift
5:21:08this time is extremely precious." Lu
5:21:11Yuan Yuan blushed and said, "I'm glad
5:21:13senior brother Lee likes it." Leing
5:21:16continued, "Given the opportunity, I
5:21:18will definitely pay a visit to express
5:21:20my gratitude." Lu Yuan Yuan paused for a
5:21:23moment, then said with a hint of regret,
5:21:25"Then I'll go first." Soon, she turned
5:21:28and left with her handsome male partner.
5:21:30Only five people remained on the third
5:21:32floor of the Imperial Water Pavilion.
5:21:34They are Li Sanankai, Su Chonqing,
5:21:37Liingbai, and Pmo. Su Chonqing did not
5:21:40recognize the fifth person. I don't even
5:21:42have any impression of this person. I
5:21:44had no idea when they came in. Only
5:21:46after seeing the other person will one
5:21:48suddenly realize that there was someone
5:21:49there. Li Sanankai teased, "Cousin Lu
5:21:52Yuan Yuan seems to really like you."
5:21:54Leing shook his head. She just likes
5:21:56handsome guys. The fifth person couldn't
5:21:59help but laugh out loud. Leeling by
5:22:01turned his head and asked, "Junior
5:22:03Sister Han, where is your gift?" Han
5:22:06Xian casually tossed something over.
5:22:08This is a highle formation called
5:22:10Earthqi drawing. Once installed, it will
5:22:12accumulate a large amount of EarthQi in
5:22:15a short time with a pressure of up to
5:22:1750,000 gene. A formation master? Such
5:22:20Chonqing couldn't help but take a second
5:22:22look. After taking over, Leingi said in
5:22:24a deep voice, "The rest are all our own
5:22:26people, so I won't hide it from you.
5:22:28After the birthday banquet, I'm going to
5:22:30the central region to hunt down demons.
5:22:33This is also why master bestowed the
5:22:35mysterious origin golden light
5:22:36talisman." The central region? Su
5:22:39Choning quickly remembered the black
5:22:41rust dynasty. Leing nodded slightly.
5:22:44Yes, that's the place. Li Sanankai
5:22:47couldn't help but worry. I heard that
5:22:49demons are everywhere there and humans
5:22:51are like domesticated pigs turning into
5:22:53food on the dinner table. Leing
5:22:56shrugged. Only in the central region do
5:22:58demons that have existed for over a
5:23:00thousand years. Pmo stepped forward, the
5:23:03centipede scar on his face twitching
5:23:05several times. I'll go with you. Oh,
5:23:07Leing asked in surprise. Po said with a
5:23:10playful tone, I've heard that the black
5:23:12rust dynasty has a blood simmering pool
5:23:14for tempering the body. I'd like to see
5:23:16what its effects are. Upon hearing this,
5:23:19everyone fell silent. He's a madman.
5:23:21He's a complete madman. This idea popped
5:23:24into everyone's head. Chapter 37.
5:23:26Cultivating the ironwood armor technique
5:23:28and brewing grade two spirit wine.
5:23:30Chapter 37. Cultivating ironwood armor
5:23:33technique and brewing second grade
5:23:35spirit wine. Leing travels to the
5:23:37central region black rust dynasty to
5:23:40hunt down millennial old demons. This
5:23:42will take at least a year. It's even
5:23:44uncertain when they'll be back. Su
5:23:46Chongqing didn't care about this. Time
5:23:48meant nothing to him. You'll be done
5:23:49farming a few times. The only thing that
5:23:52puzzled Su Chongqing and even surprised
5:23:54him was since Leing has no shortage of
5:23:57people around him. Why did Le Sanai
5:23:59bring himself along? Could they even
5:24:01become so-called one of us? After all,
5:24:04if Leing lacks spirit rice or any spirit
5:24:06plants, he can get them all by asking Lu
5:24:09Yu Yuan. If that doesn't work, we can
5:24:11ask Leang Kai to spend time planting it.
5:24:13In contrast, Su Chanqing had only been a
5:24:16member of the Lingian Corps for a year.
5:24:18It was just a transaction involving 800
5:24:20caddies of second grade spiritual rice.
5:24:23It's absurd that he became a member of
5:24:24Leil Ling by team. To put it bluntly,
5:24:27Lingian has so many formal disciples.
5:24:29There are even a large number of spirit
5:24:31farmers in the foundation establishment
5:24:33stage. Why did it have to be Su
5:24:35Chongqing, who only appears to be at the
5:24:37mid-stage ofQi refining? Therefore, he
5:24:40began to have doubts about Li Sankai and
5:24:42even Lee Lingbi. Asking directly is
5:24:44definitely not an option. We can only
5:24:46take it one step at a time. Come on,
5:24:48I'll take you home first, Li Sanankai
5:24:50said. Such Chongqing originally planned
5:24:53to find by Linger and arrange a time
5:24:54when it would rain. It's<unk> too late.
5:24:57I reckon everyone's already resting.
5:24:59They had no choice but to abandon the
5:25:01idea and then jumped onto the flying
5:25:03paper crane together with Li Sanankai.
5:25:05The two remained silent the entire way,
5:25:07neither of them uttering a word. Such
5:25:09Chanqing dared not be careless and was
5:25:11even on guard. Liengai seemed to be
5:25:14preoccupied, keeping his head down in
5:25:16thought. Under the cover of night,
5:25:18countless stars twinkled incessantly.
5:25:20Every now and then, you can see a
5:25:22fleeting shooting star. Zukafang remains
5:25:24the same as always. Fireballs keep
5:25:27falling day and night. The valley of
5:25:29spirit beasts was much quieter. Only
5:25:31occasionally could one hear a beast's
5:25:33roar. Finally, the two returned to the
5:25:35core of the spirit field. Liengai was
5:25:38very responsible and first took Su
5:25:40Chongqing home. Then he controlled the
5:25:42flying paper crane to fly towards his
5:25:44sacred field. Su Chongqing<unk>s gaze
5:25:46was deep as he watched the other
5:25:47person's figure gradually disappear into
5:25:50the darkness. Why me? Why did you choose
5:25:52me? What exactly is senior brotherly
5:25:54planning to do? He is not a stupid
5:25:56person. after witnessing just how
5:25:58outstandingly Lingai was and how many
5:26:00fans he had. Only then did I realize
5:26:02that I could become a member of their
5:26:04team. That's absolutely outrageous.
5:26:07Although this is definitely closely
5:26:08related to Lee Sanankai, but this stroke
5:26:11of luck didn't excite Su Chongqing.
5:26:13Instead, it made him very wary. Just
5:26:15like how a pie doesn't fall from the sky
5:26:17for no reason. People wouldn't be so
5:26:19kind to a stranger for no reason. The
5:26:21problem is that spirit stones are hard
5:26:23to obtain. The worst thing is that it's
5:26:25not easy to be one of our own. Several
5:26:28days passed in the blink of an eye and
5:26:30nothing much happened. The temperature
5:26:31is getting higher and higher. Summer is
5:26:34almost here. Therefore, Su Chongqing
5:26:36used a communication talisman to notify
5:26:38Han Su asked them to come over and
5:26:40loosen the soil sometime. Having learned
5:26:42from the experience of the spring
5:26:44season, he decided to focus on
5:26:46increasing production. Of course,
5:26:48because there is a small area suitable
5:26:49for planting at the foot of the rocky
5:26:51hill, we will definitely need to
5:26:53cultivate some additional spiritual
5:26:54plants, but on the surface, they will
5:26:57definitely still be growing spirit rice.
5:26:59Senior brother Sue, Han Su arrived
5:27:01around noon. Su Chongqing came out to
5:27:03greet him. You've come so quickly. Han
5:27:06Su grinned. As long as you give me the
5:27:08order, I will not delay. Compared to the
5:27:10unreliability of Lin and others, the one
5:27:13in front of me is still more appealing.
5:27:15Although 50 catties of grade two
5:27:17spiritual rice is not much, at least the
5:27:19source is stable enough. This will
5:27:21prevent the awkward situation of having
5:27:23it this time, but not next time. Such
5:27:26Chongqing didn't stand on ceremony and
5:27:28pointed to the spirit field. Then let's
5:27:30begin. However, Han Su waved his hand
5:27:33and said, "Before we begin, let me show
5:27:36you something good." Oh. Upon hearing
5:27:38this, Su Chongqing couldn't help but
5:27:40look the other person up and down. Han
5:27:42Su leaned closer and took something out
5:27:44of his small storage bag. Seen your
5:27:46brother? You need magic, right? This is
5:27:48what I got from the rogue cultivator
5:27:50market a few days ago. Su Chongqing took
5:27:53it. It was a thin book. There are a few
5:27:55blurry words on it. Ironwood armor
5:27:57technique. He immediately began to read
5:27:59it and discovered that it was a highle
5:28:01spell, but I was stunned when I saw the
5:28:03end. It's not even complete. It's just a
5:28:06fragment. Hansu scratched his head. I do
5:28:08have a few low-level spells, but I think
5:28:10senior brother should want higher level
5:28:12ones more. Although it's an incomplete
5:28:14piece, the seller said that even the
5:28:16first layer of its effect is very
5:28:18powerful. Su Chongqing wasn't angry.
5:28:21Instead, he nodded and said, "Thank you
5:28:24for your hard work, Junior Brother.
5:28:26It's<unk> good enough to have it." They
5:28:27went to the independent cultivators
5:28:29market at great risk. Therefore, there
5:28:32is no need for me to be picky. Han Su
5:28:34breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing
5:28:36this, then began to rummage through his
5:28:38small storage bag. After buying this
5:28:40incomplete book, I still have 10 caddies
5:28:42of second grade spirit rice left. Su
5:28:45Chongqing stopped him abruptly. Consider
5:28:47the rest as a reward for your hard work.
5:28:50Huh? Han Su was very surprised, even a
5:28:52little excited. Although it was only 10
5:28:54caddies of second grade spirit rice, but
5:28:57given the current market proportions,
5:28:59whether you sell it or exchange it for
5:29:00premium spiritual rice, you'll actually
5:29:02make a profit. Su Chongqing carefully
5:29:05put away the ironwood armor technique,
5:29:07then smiled and said, "Begin your
5:29:09performance." Han Su didn't waste any
5:29:11words and immediately took off his
5:29:13shoes. Having learned from his previous
5:29:15experience, he was well prepared this
5:29:17time. But strangely, the underground
5:29:19chill is not strong these days. Although
5:29:21I could still feel it, I could hold on
5:29:23for longer than the first time. And so
5:29:26Han Su loosened the soil in the
5:29:27spiritual field while Su Chongqing
5:29:30supervised from above. Drink water when
5:29:32you're thirsty. Take a rest when you're
5:29:34tired. The soil loosening was completed
5:29:36in half an hour. Su Chongqing took out a
5:29:38contract talisman. It's the same as
5:29:40before. You will receive 50 caddies of
5:29:43second grade spirit rice as a reward
5:29:45after the summer ends. Han Su quickly
5:29:47replied. I trust my senior brother, so
5:29:50there's no need to sign a spirit
5:29:51talisman contract. Su Chongqing knew the
5:29:54other party wanted to get closer, but he
5:29:56still insisted. This is to protect you.
5:29:58What if my summer yield is low? Well,
5:30:01Han Su was deeply moved upon hearing
5:30:03this and had no choice but to agree. All
5:30:05right. After signing the spirit talisman
5:30:08contract, he left. But the direction is
5:30:11not to leave the sacred field. Actually,
5:30:13I also need to help others loosen the
5:30:15soil. But I'll start with Su Chongqing
5:30:17first. In the days that followed, Su
5:30:20Chongqing had been practicing the
5:30:21incomplete version of the highle spell,
5:30:24ironwood armor technique that Han Su
5:30:26brought from the market of rogue
5:30:27cultivators. Even if I can only reach
5:30:29the first level, it's still worth it.
5:30:32After all, this is a defensive spell
5:30:34according to its meaning. Even if you
5:30:36only reach the first level, you can
5:30:38still be covered with a layer of
5:30:39ironwood armor. It can withstand
5:30:41penetrating force of several hundred kg.
5:30:44It even has effects such as fire
5:30:46resistance and metal resistance.
5:30:48However, it must be said that learning
5:30:49highle spells is a very slow process. I
5:30:52want to finish as quickly as possible.
5:30:54It is best paired with expert grade
5:30:56Lingi wine. Therefore, Su Chongqing
5:30:59began brewing wine. This time, instead
5:31:01of using first grade spiritual rice,
5:31:03they used 100 gene of second grade
5:31:05spiritual rice. The quality will
5:31:07therefore be improved. It happened very
5:31:09quickly, only 3 days. They had already
5:31:12begun producing spirit rice wine.
5:31:14Although the quantity is small, this is
5:31:16just the beginning and more will be
5:31:18produced in the future. Such Choning
5:31:20took a small bite and his eyes widened
5:31:22immediately. Second grade Lingi wine
5:31:24expert. Effect one, increases spiritual
5:31:27energy absorption speed by 30% within 1
5:31:30hour. Effect two, spiritual energy
5:31:33consumption during the execution of wood
5:31:35type spells minus 20%. Effect three,
5:31:38increases the learning speed of
5:31:40low-level spells by 25% while slightly
5:31:43tipsy. Effect four, increases the
5:31:45learning speed of highle spells by 10%
5:31:48while slightly tipsy. Negative effect
5:31:50one, long-term consumption will
5:31:52continuously reduce reaction speed.
5:31:54Negative effect two, long-term
5:31:56consumption may damage internal organs.
5:31:59While the negative effects remain
5:32:00unchanged, all the positive effects are
5:32:03enhanced. Chapter 38 by Linger in the
5:32:06rain. Hubuay unloading manure. Chapter
5:32:0938 by Linger. It's raining. Hubuay is
5:32:12unloading manure. Time flies and it's
5:32:14time to collect the summer seedlings.
5:32:16Let the little yellow dog guard the
5:32:17house. Su Chongqing arrived at the core
5:32:20management office early in the morning.
5:32:22Many bar farmers are already queuing up.
5:32:24Not long after, Su Chongqing received
5:32:26the rice seedlings to be planted in the
5:32:28summer. But instead of leaving, he
5:32:30walked towards old man Hua. He's here.
5:32:33After several encounters, Old Ha was
5:32:35quite familiar with this young man. Such
5:32:37a talented spirit farmer is rare in the
5:32:39core of the entire spirit field. Su
5:32:42Chongqing respectfully bowed and said,
5:32:44"Manager." Old Master Hua asked, "Is
5:32:46there something you need to ask?" Su
5:32:48Chongqing smiled slightly. This disciple
5:32:51has already entered the mid-stage ofQi
5:32:53refining and would like to inquire with
5:32:55you about what new spiritual plants I
5:32:57can choose. I see. Old Master Hua said,
5:33:00suddenly understanding. Those who came
5:33:02last winter have reached the mid-stage
5:33:04ofQi refining this summer. The speed is
5:33:06not fast, it's about average. In the
5:33:09early stages of chi refining, there is
5:33:11only one type of spiritual plant to
5:33:13choose from, spiritual rice. Upon
5:33:15reaching the mid-stage ofqi refining,
5:33:17the options become more numerous,
5:33:19exceeding a dozen, offering greater
5:33:21variety. Soon, with Mr. Hua's
5:33:24introduction, Su Chongqing finally
5:33:26learned about the spiritual plants that
5:33:27could be chosen during the mid-stage
5:33:29ofQi refining. In layman's terms, they
5:33:32can be divided into four categories:
5:33:34flour, grass, tree, vegetable. Besides
5:33:38the most common ling rice, there are
5:33:40indeed more choices nowadays. However,
5:33:42there aren't many suitable candidates
5:33:44for such chonqing. After all, different
5:33:46spiritual plants have different growing
5:33:48environments. Elder Hua reminded us,
5:33:51"Most of the spiritual plants available
5:33:52during theqi refining stage are related
5:33:55to food. Only by reaching the foundation
5:33:57establishment stage can one obtain
5:33:59higher quality and more valuable
5:34:00spiritual plants. After much
5:34:02deliberation, Su Chongqing finally made
5:34:05a decision. They are fourleaf clover,
5:34:08watermelon, Chinese cabbage. Choosing a
5:34:10four-leaf clover mainly requires
5:34:12familiarity and experience. Moreover,
5:34:15this thing is one of the foods of small
5:34:17spirit beasts. It just so happens to be
5:34:19sold to hugay. Watermelon and Chinese
5:34:22cabbage, on the other hand, were
5:34:24consumed because of cravings. While
5:34:26lingio, a type of rice, is good, we
5:34:29can't just eat that all the time. The
5:34:31seeds of the three kinds of spiritual
5:34:32plants cost a total of 30 points.
5:34:35Subtracting 30 from 500 leaves, 470. I
5:34:39got home early. Su Chongqing was not in
5:34:41a hurry to plant. Let's start with a
5:34:43glass of second grade Lingi wine to get
5:34:45into a slightly tipsy state. He then
5:34:47took out a fragment of the highle spell,
5:34:50ironwood armor, and began to study it in
5:34:52depth. Now, with the added benefit of
5:34:54second grade spirit rice wine, I can
5:34:56master it completely in less than a
5:34:58month. It wasn't until noon when the
5:35:00effects of the alcohol gradually wore
5:35:02off that Sue Chongqing finally stopped.
5:35:05Then I cooked, washed the dishes, and
5:35:07fed the dog. Once everything was in
5:35:09place, planting finally began. But the
5:35:11whole process is very simple and quick.
5:35:14He first wrapped the rice seed in his
5:35:16spiritual energy and then casually
5:35:18tossed it out. The seed is being
5:35:20controlled to burrow into the soil using
5:35:22the wood's spirit entanglement
5:35:23technique, three layers. It can all be
5:35:26done in minutes without taking up any
5:35:28time or effort. This is actually quite
5:35:30similar to the spring season. The most
5:35:32abundant crop is still ling rice as it
5:35:34is the main source of yield. The
5:35:36fourleaf clovers were planted along the
5:35:38pre-dug irrigation ditch. Watermelon and
5:35:41Chinese cabbage are more optional. If
5:35:43there's space, we'll plant it. If there
5:35:45isn't, it doesn't matter. After all,
5:35:47there is still space at the foot of the
5:35:49Rocky Mountain on the other side.
5:35:51Everything was done in the time it takes
5:35:52for an incense stick to burn. Such
5:35:54Chonqing took by Linger's communication
5:35:56talisman out of his small storage bag
5:35:59and then infused it with a wisp of
5:36:01spiritual power. Who? I am Su Chonqing.
5:36:04Sorry, I forgot. It's really remote.
5:36:06There's nobody around. Now that you
5:36:08mention it, I remember you. It's you.
5:36:10I'd like to make an appointment with
5:36:12you. Do you have time? Of course. When
5:36:14are you coming? H how about tomorrow at
5:36:17noon? Okay. Communication ended. Su
5:36:20Chonqing carefully put away the
5:36:21communication talisman. He planned to
5:36:23have by linger come more often since the
5:36:26temperature was high in the summer.
5:36:27Moreover, this time they planted more
5:36:29than just spirit rice. There are also
5:36:31fourleaf clovers, watermelons, and
5:36:34Chinese cabbages. To ensure production,
5:36:36it is necessary to have several more
5:36:38miraculous reigns. The seeds have now
5:36:40been sewn. All that remained was
5:36:42Hubu<unk>'s excrement. Binger's spirit
5:36:45reign. Next, Su Chanqing immersed
5:36:47himself in his studies again. The next
5:36:49day arrived. Binger arrived at noon as
5:36:52expected. Because the other person was a
5:36:54child, the two didn't have much
5:36:55interaction. Binger finished casting the
5:36:58minor cloud rain technique. Su Chongqing
5:37:01immediately took out 20 low-grade spirit
5:37:03stones and handed them over. Bilinger
5:37:05took it, then asked with a smile, "How
5:37:07many more times do we need to go?" Such
5:37:10Chan had already thought it through,
5:37:12raising two fingers of his right hand to
5:37:14indicate, "At least twice." By Linger
5:37:17blinked, "You have to pay a deposit
5:37:18first, then we<unk>ll set a time. In the
5:37:20summer, disciples with water elemental
5:37:22roots are extremely busy. Because of the
5:37:25great need of the barrens, it rains
5:37:27everywhere. If you don't arrange a time
5:37:29in advance, it's easy to have conflicts
5:37:31with others. Su Chongqing thought about
5:37:33it carefully. Come once during the grain
5:37:35and ear and once during the great heat.
5:37:38Okay. Binger nodded slightly. Then Su
5:37:41Chongqing took out 40 lowgrade spirit
5:37:43stones and handed them over. In the
5:37:46past, he would have felt the pinch. It's
5:37:48all right now. After all, five mid-grade
5:37:50spirit stones are equivalent to 500
5:37:52low-grade spirit stones. This is
5:37:54considered a huge sum of money during
5:37:56theqi refining stage. Binger held the
5:37:58cup in both hands, her eyes shining. So
5:38:01many ring ring. Just then, the sound of
5:38:04camel bells came from not far away. Su
5:38:07Chongqing knew without even looking that
5:38:09it was who Buguay who had arrived. After
5:38:11all, only the other party would be
5:38:13willing to come to such a remote place.
5:38:15It stinks. Binger exclaimed with disgust
5:38:18upon smelling the odor in the air. Go
5:38:20back now. Such Chanqing was both amused
5:38:22and exasperated by the sight. Before
5:38:25Hubuay could get close, Binger stepped
5:38:27on a flying paper crane and turned to
5:38:29run away. They didn't give the other
5:38:31side any time to pollute the air. "Who
5:38:33was that?" Hubui asked, watching the
5:38:36figure hurry away. "Flying so fast." Su
5:38:39Chongqing shrugged. "The girl with the
5:38:41water spirit route who helped me with
5:38:42the rain. You made her run away because
5:38:44of her stench." "Uh" Hubuguay said,
5:38:47feeling extremely embarrassed. However,
5:38:50this kind of thing is commonplace.
5:38:52Therefore, although I felt a little
5:38:53uncomfortable, I didn't pay much
5:38:55attention to it. The moment you choose
5:38:57to sell spirit beast excrement, you've
5:38:59long since lost all sense of pride. Su
5:39:02Chongqing called out, "Don't just stand
5:39:04there. Let's unload the manure." Hubui
5:39:07said irritably, "I've come all this way.
5:39:09Can I even rest for a bit?" Su Chongqing
5:39:12smiled and said, "Then I'll do it
5:39:14myself." Hubui paused for a moment, then
5:39:16shook his head. Let's<unk> go together.
5:39:19Soon the two unloaded some of the dung
5:39:21from the camel. This is enough for Su
5:39:23Chongqing to cover the entire grade two
5:39:25spirit field. After everything was
5:39:27settled, Hubuay finally sat down to
5:39:30rest. Su Chongqing brought out a bowl of
5:39:32the second grade spirit rice wine he had
5:39:34brewed from the house, handed it to the
5:39:36other person and said, "Try it. It
5:39:39smells so good." Hubuay exclaimed in
5:39:41surprise as he took the hand. After just
5:39:43one small bite, their eyes widened in
5:39:46surprise. He knew the other person could
5:39:48brew wine, but I didn't expect the
5:39:49technology to be so good and the quality
5:39:52to be so high. He immediately drank the
5:39:54second grade spirit rice wine in the
5:39:56bowl in one gulp. Then he squinted his
5:39:58eyes, looking completely absorbed. After
5:40:01Su Chongqing sat down, he said, "If you
5:40:03like to drink, fill a pound when you
5:40:05leave." "Really?" Hubui immediately
5:40:08opened his eyes, revealing an extremely
5:40:10eager look. Su Chongqing nodded. "Why
5:40:13would I lie to you? We're<unk> friends."
5:40:15Hub Buguay<unk>s eyes lit up. Yes, we
5:40:17are friends. Such Choning then took out
5:40:20a small storage bag and while taking out
5:40:22spirit rice, he said, "According to the
5:40:24agreement last time, you can take
5:40:261/10enth of my total spring production."
5:40:28Subtracting the 1,000 gene submitted,
5:40:30there are still,00 gene left. 1/10enth
5:40:33of that is 110 gene of second grade
5:40:36spirit rice. Adding what was left over,
5:40:38the total is 2,290 gene. This involves
5:40:42both delivering wine and fulfilling an
5:40:44agreement. In particular, the Lingi rice
5:40:46has reached the highest quality, far
5:40:48exceeding expectations. Hubuay was
5:40:51deeply moved. After putting the top
5:40:53grade spirit rice into his storage bag,
5:40:55he decisively took out a spirit beast
5:40:57ring and introduced it. There is a
5:40:59spirit beast inside called the pearl
5:41:01hen. It lays an egg containing a trace
5:41:03of spiritual energy every 3 days.
5:41:06Chapter 39. After learning the wooden
5:41:09armor technique, the spirit rice
5:41:11mutated. Chapter 39. After learning the
5:41:13wooden armor technique, the spirit rice
5:41:16underwent such a mutation and Su
5:41:18Chongqing and the little yellow dog
5:41:19gained another chicken by their side.
5:41:21No, to be precise, it's called pearl
5:41:24chicken. It was entirely gray. It is
5:41:26covered with regular circular white
5:41:28dots. It does look similar to a pearl.
5:41:30It lays one egg every 3 days. It
5:41:33contains a faint spiritual energy. It's
5:41:35fairly nutritious because there is no
5:41:37rooster. These eggs cannot hatch. To put
5:41:40it bluntly, it's only good for eating.
5:41:42The chicken cannot lay an egg or the egg
5:41:44cannot hatch from the chicken. Woof
5:41:46woof. The little yellow dog was probably
5:41:48seeing it for the first time and seemed
5:41:50unusually excited. It would occasionally
5:41:52pretend to bite. The guinea fowl were so
5:41:54frightened that they trembled. Such Chan
5:41:57grabbed the drooling dog's mouth and
5:41:59warned, "If you dare to bite, I'll beat
5:42:01you." Now the rain has fallen.
5:42:03fertilizer has been applied. Although
5:42:05the content of wood elemental energy is
5:42:07constantly increasing, unfortunately,
5:42:09there is no spiritual tide in the
5:42:12summer. The only option is to allow the
5:42:14spiritual plant to grow while
5:42:16simultaneously gathering with spiritual
5:42:18energy. This naturally leads to lower
5:42:20efficiency. Su Chonqing knew that there
5:42:22was no use in being anxious. The current
5:42:25situation could not be changed. Since
5:42:27I'm already in the late stage ofQi
5:42:29refining, breaking through to the
5:42:31foundation establishment stage is only a
5:42:33matter of time. Two weeks later, Su
5:42:35Chongqing, who was practicing the
5:42:37incomplete version of the ironwood armor
5:42:39technique, suddenly had a thought. He
5:42:41looked at the attribute panel. Ironwood
5:42:43armor technique fragment level one.
5:42:46Effect one, consume spiritual power to
5:42:49cover the body with a layer of ironwood
5:42:51armor. Effect two, plus 10% resistance
5:42:54to fire and metal attributes. Wait a
5:42:56minute. Such Chongqing was surprised.
5:42:58There is an upward arrow next to this
5:43:00fragment. Is the Shinong system not just
5:43:03about increasing spell levels? Would you
5:43:05like to consume 15,000 days of your
5:43:07lifespan to repair the incomplete
5:43:09ironwood armor technique? A prompt
5:43:11appears. As expected, Su Choning's eyes
5:43:14lit up. Doesn't that mean I can't afford
5:43:17the complete spell, but as long as it's
5:43:19a fragment or incomplete piece, you can
5:43:21get it for a low price. Then by using
5:43:23the shinome system to repair it, you can
5:43:26obtain the complete spell. Would you
5:43:28like to consume 15,000 days of your
5:43:30lifespan to repair the incomplete
5:43:32ironwood armor technique? The prompt
5:43:34appears again. Yes. This time, Su
5:43:37Chongqing readily agreed. Although
5:43:3915,000 days is approximately equal to 41
5:43:42years, but this amount of exertion was
5:43:44negligible for him. Instantly, countless
5:43:47pieces of information about the ironwood
5:43:49armor technique appeared. In a days, Su
5:43:52Chongqing used his limited knowledge,
5:43:54experience, and skills. It took a full
5:43:5641 years to repair the fragments and
5:43:59complete the work. Although to the
5:44:00outside world, it was just a matter of a
5:44:02moment, but this state feels incredibly
5:44:05real and immersive. Successfully
5:44:07consumed 15,000 days of lifespan to
5:44:10repair the incomplete Ironwood armor
5:44:12technique. Remaining lifespan 63,290
5:44:16days. Ironwood armor technique level
5:44:19one. Effect one, consume spiritual power
5:44:21to cover the body with a layer of
5:44:23ironwood armor. Effect two, plus 15%
5:44:26resistance to fire and metal attributes.
5:44:29Effect one remains unchanged, but effect
5:44:32two has been amplified, Su Chongqing
5:44:34thought to himself. Moreover, if I
5:44:36remember correctly, in the fragmented
5:44:38version, the ironwood armor technique
5:44:40was not actually a highle technique.
5:44:42These two words were added after the
5:44:44system was fully repaired. Would you
5:44:46like to consume 888 days of your
5:44:48lifespan to upgrade ironwood armor
5:44:51technique from level one to level two?
5:44:53The prompt appears for the third time.
5:44:55Yes, Su Chonqing replied. The upgrade
5:44:58was completed in an instant because he
5:45:00had already mastered the experience and
5:45:02skills and repairing. It's like starting
5:45:04over after your powers have been
5:45:05depleted. The efficiency is
5:45:07astonishingly fast. successfully
5:45:09consumed 888 days of lifespan to upgrade
5:45:13Ironwood armor technique from level one
5:45:15to level two. Remaining lifespan 62,42
5:45:20days. Advanced Ironwood armor technique
5:45:22level two. Effect one, consume spiritual
5:45:25power to cover the body with a layer of
5:45:27ironwood armor. Effect two, plus 20%
5:45:31resistance to fire and metal attributes.
5:45:33Effect three, the surface of the wooden
5:45:35armor is covered with a layer of sharp
5:45:37thorns. Upgrade to the highest level in
5:45:40one go. Su Chongqing said seriously.
5:45:42Successfully consumed 1888 days of
5:45:45lifespan to upgrade ironwood armor
5:45:47technique from level two to level three.
5:45:50Successfully consumed 2,888
5:45:53days of lifespan to upgrade ironwood
5:45:56armor technique from level 3 to level
5:45:58four. Remaining lifespan 59,514
5:46:02days. Advanced ironwood armor technique
5:46:05level four. Effect one, ironwood armor
5:46:08evolves into silverwood armor with an
5:46:10additional plus 10% defense. Effect two,
5:46:14plus 25% resistance to fire and metal
5:46:17attributes. Effect three, the surface of
5:46:19the wooden armor is covered with a layer
5:46:21of sharp thorns. Effect four, sharp
5:46:24thorns plus 10% damage reflection.
5:46:27Effect five, automatically absorbs with
5:46:29elemental energy to repair damage after
5:46:31activation. Impressive. Su Choning<unk>s
5:46:34eyes lit up. He immediately activated
5:46:36ironwood armor level four. Instantly, a
5:46:39faint silver light covered his body. If
5:46:41you look closely, you'll see patterns
5:46:43like tree rings. Moreover, it is covered
5:46:46with sharp thorns that resemble fine
5:46:48needles. Since there are no opponents
5:46:50for the time being, we don't know
5:46:51exactly how good their defense and
5:46:53resistance are. Such Chongqing went to
5:46:55the popular tree that he had been
5:46:56ravaging all along, but this time he did
5:46:59not attack it. Instead, he went up and
5:47:01hugged it like an old friend. laughed.
5:47:04Instantly, a piercing sound rang out.
5:47:07Hearing the noise, Su Chongqing released
5:47:09his grip and took a few steps back. Then
5:47:11I saw the popular tree that I had
5:47:13hugged. Its surface in a terrible state
5:47:15everywhere. There were countless needle
5:47:17marks. Although no damage reflection
5:47:19effect was tested, but it is clear that
5:47:21these sharp thorns can cause significant
5:47:23damage. After thinking it over, Su
5:47:26Chaning turned his gaze to the guinea
5:47:28fowl and the little yellow dog. The
5:47:30guinea fowl instantly curled up into a
5:47:32ball, trembling again. Seeing that
5:47:34something was wrong, the little yellow
5:47:36dog immediately tucked its tail between
5:47:38its legs and ran away. It disappeared
5:47:40without a trace very quickly. We feed
5:47:43you and give you drinks, but you can't
5:47:44be relied on when it really matters. Su
5:47:47Chonqing rolled his eyes. Several days
5:47:49later, rumble. Thunder rumbled. Soon, a
5:47:52dark cloud gathered in the sky. Su
5:47:55Chonqing was not surprised at all by
5:47:56this. Summer is hot and prone to
5:47:58drought, but it rains occasionally. It
5:48:01was just a thunderstorm. It comes
5:48:02quickly and goes quickly. For the
5:48:04spiritual plants, this is like a
5:48:06godsend. There are only benefits and no
5:48:08drawbacks. However, Su Chongqing
5:48:11remained cautious. After all, when it
5:48:13rains in the spring, many rice plant
5:48:15hoppers crawl out of the water. There
5:48:17should be insects in the summer, too,
5:48:19but I don't know what kind they are.
5:48:20Soon, a series of crackling sounds rang
5:48:23out. Rain fell. The rice, four-leaf
5:48:25clover, watermelon, and Chinese cabbage
5:48:28were nourished. They all became moist
5:48:30and smooth. Such Chongqing stood under
5:48:32the eaves. The little yellow dog was
5:48:34squatting on the left. The guinea fowl
5:48:36is perched on the armrest of the chair
5:48:38on the right. Humans, animals, and
5:48:40nature are perfectly integrated at this
5:48:42moment. It feels perfectly natural. A
5:48:45few minutes later, the rain stopped and
5:48:46the sky cleared. The temperature rose
5:48:48again. Su Chonqing walked slowly to the
5:48:51edge of the field with his hands behind
5:48:53his back. Consuming spiritual energy,
5:48:55the entire spirit field was quickly
5:48:57perceived. He immediately exclaimed,
5:48:59"Eh." The next second, he took off his
5:49:02shoes and entered the spirit field
5:49:03barefoot. Soon they arrived at a very
5:49:06special looking stalk of spiritual rice.
5:49:08It was entirely golden. The wood
5:49:10elemental energy is extremely rich,
5:49:13especially the rice ears, which have
5:49:15three to five ears. Unlike other
5:49:16varieties, this particular plant has as
5:49:19many as nine stems. Upon seeing this, Su
5:49:22Chonqing immediately activated the
5:49:24Chonqing technique. Mutant spirit rice.
5:49:27Many children, many blessings. I don't
5:49:29know if it's because of the rain that
5:49:30just fell or is it caused by some other
5:49:32reason. This sacred rice plant has
5:49:34actually mutated. The color is darker.
5:49:37There are more rice ears. There was even
5:49:39an unbelievable entry. Chapter 40.
5:49:42Transferring mutant rice. Its value is
5:49:44astounding. Chapter 40. Transfer of
5:49:46mutant rice. Its value is astounding. a
5:49:49mutated spiritual plant. Its value
5:49:52should not be underestimated. But Su
5:49:54Chongqing<unk>s first thought was not to
5:49:55sell it. Instead, they moved elsewhere.
5:49:58For example, in that hidden cave at the
5:50:00foot of the Rocky Mountain. Therefore,
5:50:02he decisively released his spiritual
5:50:05power to completely envelop the mutated
5:50:07spirit rice from top to bottom,
5:50:09including its roots in the black soil.
5:50:11Then, he carefully dug with his other
5:50:13hand. Not long after, the mutated spirit
5:50:16rice was dug up, and there was no damage
5:50:18at all. Soon, Su Chongqing transported
5:50:21the mutated spirit rice to the foot of
5:50:23the Rocky Mountain. They were replanted
5:50:25in the black soil. Then, the spring
5:50:27water was pumped back and forth several
5:50:29more times. The spiritual energy was
5:50:31never interrupted during this time for
5:50:33fear that something might happen.
5:50:35Fortunately, there were no problems in
5:50:37the end. If every single one of my
5:50:39spirit rise plants is this mutated
5:50:41variety, wouldn't the yield be at least
5:50:435,000 catties? Su Chongqing squatted
5:50:46down, carefully examining the
5:50:48transplanted mutated spirit rice. Even a
5:50:51single plant can reveal its future
5:50:52potential. In particular, what Su
5:50:55Chongqing cared about most was the entry
5:50:57for many children, many blessings. Does
5:50:59that mean the more rice ears or seeds
5:51:01there are, the greater the degree of
5:51:03mutation? With this conjecture in mind,
5:51:06Su Chongqing left the interior of the
5:51:08stone mountain. As soon as they stepped
5:51:10outside, the communication talisman
5:51:12vibrated. Upon taking it out of the
5:51:14small storage bag, I discovered it was
5:51:16Lee Sankai. Senior brother, come over
5:51:18tomorrow. What's wrong? Didn't you say
5:51:21you'd help me harvest the orchids? Oh,
5:51:23and oh, I forgot about that. You don't
5:51:25have to come if you have something to
5:51:26do. No, I'm fine. I'll definitely go
5:51:29tomorrow. Communication ended. Such
5:51:31Chongqing raised an eyebrow as he put
5:51:33down the communication talisman in his
5:51:35hand. This is like someone bringing you
5:51:37a pillow just when you're about to fall
5:51:39asleep. The lifespan that has been
5:51:41consumed needs to be replenished. You
5:51:43can also get information about mutated
5:51:45spiritual plants from Liang Kai. Before
5:51:47we knew it, it was noon the next day. Su
5:51:50Chongqing finished feeding the little
5:51:51yellow dog and the guinea foul before
5:51:53setting off. It's the same route as
5:51:55before, but this time it's faster. When
5:51:58they arrived, Liangai was already
5:52:00sitting in the pavilion waiting for
5:52:01them. Senior brother Su Chongqing bowed.
5:52:04Li Sanankai opened the fence gate and
5:52:06then waved, "Come in." The two walked
5:52:09one in front of the other. Since it
5:52:10wasn't his first time there, Su Chanqing
5:52:13didn't observe the other areas. His gaze
5:52:15immediately turned to the colorful
5:52:16orchid waiting to be harvested. I
5:52:19discovered that the color of this thing
5:52:20has actually become darker. It looks a
5:52:22bit thick. A faint fragrance permeated
5:52:25the air. Liengai asked, "Do you want to
5:52:27rest first or start harvesting now?"
5:52:30Such Chanqing immediately smiled and
5:52:32said, "This is the spirit rice wine I
5:52:34brewed. Senior brother, please taste it
5:52:36while you guide me through the harvest.
5:52:38Spirit rice wine. Leansai's eyes lit up
5:52:41with anticipation. If even the drunkard
5:52:43PMO likes it so much, then it must be
5:52:46something special. Such Chonqing took
5:52:48out a pound of second grade spirit rice
5:52:50wine that he had prepared in advance
5:52:51from his small storage bag and handed it
5:52:53over. Then he walked towards the spirit
5:52:55field where the colorful orchid was
5:52:57planted. After taking over, Li Sankai
5:53:00returned to the pavilion and immediately
5:53:02poured himself a cup. Immediately, the
5:53:04rich aroma of rice and wine filled the
5:53:07air. Although I haven't tasted it yet.
5:53:09You can tell the quality is definitely
5:53:11not bad just by looking at the aroma. Li
5:53:13Sanankai couldn't help but glance at Su
5:53:15Chongqing, who had entered his spiritual
5:53:17field. I didn't expect the other person
5:53:19to be so young. The wine- makingaking
5:53:21technique is truly remarkable. At this
5:53:24moment, Su Chongqing, who is in the
5:53:26spirit field, called out, senior
5:53:28brother, is the harvesting method for
5:53:30this colorful orchid also starting from
5:53:32the roots. Yes, Liengai replied, then
5:53:35picked up his wine glass and took a
5:53:37small sip. Suddenly, he felt as if he
5:53:39had been struck by lightning. The rich,
5:53:42mellow liquor slid down the mouth and
5:53:44throw it into the stomach. In an
5:53:46instant, a warm current surged through
5:53:48my entire body. It's important to know
5:53:50that spirit rice wine is very common and
5:53:52many spirit farmers brew it. But this is
5:53:54the quality, the taste, the standard of
5:53:57lingi wine. Liengai swore that no one in
5:53:59the entire Lion region except for Su
5:54:02Chongqing could brew it. Unbelievable.
5:54:05This is actually the most common, even
5:54:07the most ordinary spirit rice wine. The
5:54:09taste and the feeling after drinking it
5:54:11made him completely intoxicated. He
5:54:14immediately downed the drink in one
5:54:15gulp, then squinted his eyes and savored
5:54:18the taste. On the other side, Su
5:54:20Chongqing saw that the other person was
5:54:22drinking and did not disturb them. He
5:54:24quietly activated the evergreen
5:54:26technique to sensed Sylon's condition.
5:54:28Mature, no damage, abundant spiritual
5:54:31energy. Today's highlights. Top quality
5:54:34item in 3 days. Upon seeing this
5:54:36information, Su Chonqing frowned. I
5:54:38thought Le Sanank Kai was stronger than
5:54:40Jang Su. It turned out that the two were
5:54:42equally bad at each other. My
5:54:44understanding of spiritual plants is not
5:54:46detailed enough. None of them could
5:54:48grasp the best time to improve quality.
5:54:51However, he had no intention of offering
5:54:53any warnings. My persona is that of a
5:54:55formal disciple who has only been
5:54:57studying for a year. If one is actually
5:54:59more outstanding than Liang Kai and Jang
5:55:01Su, it is easy to offend people.
5:55:04Therefore, Such Chongqing bent down and
5:55:06began harvesting obediently. Harvesting
5:55:08one premium variegated orchid will
5:55:10increase its lifespan by 5 days.
5:55:13Harvesting one premium variegated orchid
5:55:15will increase its lifespan by 5 days.
5:55:18Harvesting one premium variegated orchid
5:55:20will increase its lifespan by 5 days.
5:55:24Time flies when you're doing something.
5:55:25An hour later, all the colorful orchids
5:55:28were harvested. One plant at a time,
5:55:30they were all neatly arranged on the
5:55:32edge of the field. The piled up
5:55:34structure reached a height of nearly 3
5:55:36m, resembling a colorful wall. Remaining
5:55:39lifespan 65,079
5:55:42days. Harvesting the orchid adds 5,565
5:55:46days to its lifespan, which is
5:55:48approximately 15 years. Senior brother,
5:55:51I've finished harvesting. Su Chongqing
5:55:53couldn't help but call out when he saw
5:55:55that there was still no response from
5:55:56the other side. Li Sanankai snapped out
5:55:59of his drunken stuper and said with
5:56:01dazed eyes, "Oh, one gene of second
5:56:04grade Lingi wine." In that one hour, he
5:56:06managed to finish half a gene, 250 g.
5:56:10Although he hadn't lost consciousness
5:56:11yet, he was already feeling like he was
5:56:13floating on air. Walking was unsteady,
5:56:16and one could fall at any moment. Su
5:56:18Chongqing climbed up the ridge and took
5:56:20a look, then froze, drunk, Lienkai asked
5:56:23with a smile, "Junior brother, where did
5:56:25you learn your brewing skills?" Su
5:56:27Chongqing shrugged. <unk>It<unk>s a
5:56:29family heirloom. Li Sanankai nodded
5:56:31slightly. As expected, there are many
5:56:33experts among the people. It is amazing
5:56:35that such ordinary spirit rice wine can
5:56:38achieve such quality. Su Chongqing
5:56:40smiled and said, "If you like to drink,
5:56:42I'll bring some more next time." Li
5:56:44Sanankai said with a regretful
5:56:46expression, "It's a pity that my cousin
5:56:48has already left the immortal sect for
5:56:50the central region. Otherwise, I would
5:56:51definitely have sent him some to try."
5:56:54Seeing that the other person was still
5:56:55drunk, Su Chongqing took the opportunity
5:56:57to ask, "Senior brother, I've heard that
5:57:00spiritual plants can mutate." Liang Kai
5:57:02was taken aback at first, then nodded.
5:57:05Yes, some spiritual plants can indeed
5:57:07mutate at a certain time, stage, or
5:57:10under certain conditions, but the
5:57:11probability is very, very low. In all
5:57:14his years in Linkon, he had only seen it
5:57:16twice. "It's easy to imagine how rare it
5:57:19is." "And what about its value?" Such
5:57:21Chanqing asked, his face full of
5:57:23curiosity. Mutant spiritual plants are
5:57:25rare commodities, and many people are
5:57:28collecting them. Either hand it over to
5:57:30the sect and receive a reward of at
5:57:31least 1,000 points. Either we sell them
5:57:34outside and we can get at least 100
5:57:36mid-grade spirit stones, Liai replied.
5:57:39Such Chan was shocked upon hearing this.
5:57:42Even a single mutated spiritual plant is
5:57:44worth 1,000 points or hundreds of
5:57:46mid-grade spirit stones. Wouldn't the
5:57:48mutated spirit rise with the attribute
5:57:51many children many blessings be even
5:57:53more astonishing? Chapter 41. The
5:57:56opportunity for mutation ordinary daily
5:57:58life. Chapter 41. The opportunity for
5:58:01mutation ordinary daily life. After
5:58:03saying goodbye to Lee Sanankai. Such
5:58:06Chanqing was still thinking about the
5:58:07mutated spiritual plants. If there is
5:58:10any way to induce mutations in spiritual
5:58:12plants, wouldn't that be equivalent to a
5:58:14continuous supply of spirit stones? He
5:58:16thought back carefully. Before the rain,
5:58:18the rice in the entire spiritual field
5:58:21was not much different. The only
5:58:23difference is the number of rice ears.
5:58:25Thunder rumbled and then the
5:58:26thunderstorm passed. This is the
5:58:28mutation that occurred in this spiritual
5:58:30plant. Could it be related to the
5:58:32thunder? Such Chonqing wondered to
5:58:34himself. But why this particular plant?
5:58:36Why didn't other types of rice mutate?
5:58:38However, the more I thought about it,
5:58:40the more confused I became. I simply
5:58:42can't figure out the key point here.
5:58:44Time has come for the grain in ear
5:58:46season. Externally, this indicates that
5:58:48the crops are ripe and ready for
5:58:50harvest. But within the immortal sect or
5:58:52the entire cultivation world, it was
5:58:54just an ordinary day. Even the most
5:58:56ordinary spirit rice matures every 3
5:58:59months and is harvested every quarter.
5:59:01After receiving by Linger's
5:59:03notification, Su Chongqing stood on the
5:59:05edge of the field and waited patiently.
5:59:07However, it must be admitted that summer
5:59:09is not very friendly to its spirit
5:59:11roots. The sun was scorching and the
5:59:13temperature was extremely high. When the
5:59:15sun shines on your body, your mouth and
5:59:17throat become dry in no time.
5:59:19Fortunately, Bilinger didn't keep him
5:59:21waiting too long. Not long after, a
5:59:24paper crane slowly approached from a
5:59:26distance. In such a remote place, apart
5:59:28from Bing, only Hubu was willing to
5:59:31come. Of course, there used to be a
5:59:33linen, but now his whereabouts are
5:59:35unknown. Su Chongqing waited for the
5:59:37other party to jump down, then
5:59:39immediately stepped forward to greet
5:59:40him. Welcome, fellow Daoist. Byinger was
5:59:44quite surprised to see a guinea fowl
5:59:45wandering around. You've started raising
5:59:48chickens. Such Chonqing smiled slightly.
5:59:50It was a gift from a friend. Binger
5:59:53suddenly realized, then blinked. Do you
5:59:55raise fish? Fish? Such Chonqing was
5:59:58taken aback. Bilinger explained, "It's
6:00:00that kind of chubby, plump carp." Su
6:00:03Chongqing waved his hand. Although I
6:00:05have a canal here, it's<unk> too
6:00:06shallow. If it's a burrowing loach, eel,
6:00:09toad, lobster, or the like, you could
6:00:12give it a try. As for fish, let's forget
6:00:14about it for now. Binger nodded in
6:00:16understanding, then said, "Then I'll
6:00:18begin." With a wave of her small hand,
6:00:21her spiritual energy began to be
6:00:23consumed. Immediately, a large amount of
6:00:26water spiritual energy began to gather
6:00:28above the spiritual field. In no time,
6:00:30it gradually formed a slightly blackish
6:00:33mist. At the same time, a cool sensation
6:00:35spread out. Such Chanqing, who had been
6:00:38feeling a bit hot, suddenly felt
6:00:40incredibly cool and refreshed from head
6:00:42to toe. Soon, the sound of rain
6:00:44powdering down began. The spiritual
6:00:46plants below immediately became plump
6:00:48and full under the nourishment of the
6:00:50spiritual rain. Seeing this, Su
6:00:53Chongqing<unk>s heart stirred, and he
6:00:54asked, "Fellow Daist B, will this lesser
6:00:57cloud and rain technique eventually turn
6:00:59into thunder and rain?" Binger shook her
6:01:02head and said, "The lesser cloud and
6:01:04rain technique won't work, but the
6:01:06greater cloud and rain technique will.
6:01:08What's the difference?" Such Chanin
6:01:10continued to ask by Linger explained,
6:01:12"The lesser cloud rain technique is a
6:01:14low-level spell, while the greater cloud
6:01:16rain technique is a highle spell.
6:01:18Casting the great cloud and rain
6:01:20technique requires a vast amount of
6:01:22spiritual energy to sustain. Therefore,
6:01:24only those at the foundation
6:01:26establishment stage or above can learn
6:01:28it." Su Chongqing, seemingly
6:01:30understanding but not quite, asked, "Can
6:01:33you simulate thunder?" "Of course," By
6:01:35Linger affirmed. Su Chongqing squinted
6:01:37and pondered. "Perhaps we should find a
6:01:39foundation establishment stage water
6:01:41elemental route disciple who has learned
6:01:43the great cloud and rain technique to
6:01:45give it a try. If it can truly stimulate
6:01:48your spiritual plants to mutate, then it
6:01:50means this method is correct. The only
6:01:52problem is that we need to ask a
6:01:54foundation establishment stage disciple
6:01:55for help. I might not have enough
6:01:57mid-grade spirit stones. Immediately his
6:02:00gaze fell on by Linger again. Why are
6:02:02you looking at me? Binger asked puzzled.
6:02:04May I ask if I may? Su Chongqing
6:02:07continued. What realm are you at now?
6:02:09Fellow Daist by what level have you
6:02:11reached with the lesser cloud and rain
6:02:13technique? Byinger said somewhat
6:02:15embarrassedly. Well, although my little
6:02:17cloud rain technique is already at level
6:02:19two, my cultivation realm is only at the
6:02:22midstage ofQi refining. only at the
6:02:24mid-stage ofQi refining. Su Chongqing
6:02:27was dumbfounded. He had assumed that the
6:02:29other party was at least in the late
6:02:30stage ofQi refining, if not in the
6:02:33foundation establishment stage. After
6:02:35all, this little cloud and rain
6:02:36technique is indeed very powerful.
6:02:39Unexpectedly, I overestimated it. By
6:02:41Linger shrugged, the advantage of our
6:02:43water elemental roots is that our
6:02:45spiritual power is more enduring, which
6:02:48is one of the main reasons why we choose
6:02:49the path of talismans. Faced with this
6:02:52explanation, Su Chongqing was
6:02:54speechless. Once Binger reaches the
6:02:56foundation establishment stage and
6:02:58learns the great cloud and rain
6:03:00technique. It will be at least 10 or 20
6:03:02years later, which is a bit too long. It
6:03:04seems that the most direct and effective
6:03:06method is to find a disciple with a
6:03:08water elemental route in the foundation
6:03:10establishment stage. The two then
6:03:12chatted casually. Time passed quickly
6:03:15because a deposit had already been paid.
6:03:17Therefore, Bilinger does not need to pay
6:03:19again this time to use the little cloud
6:03:21rain technique. After the other party
6:03:23stepped on the flying paper crane and
6:03:25left, Such Chonqing immediately jumped
6:03:27into the spirit field. He simultaneously
6:03:30activated the evergreen technique to
6:03:32perceive all the spiritual rice. He
6:03:34carefully observed all the spiritual
6:03:36plants. Unfortunately, not a single one
6:03:38mutated, whether it's rice, fourleaf
6:03:41clover, watermelon, or Chinese cabbage.
6:03:44Even after being nourished by a minor
6:03:45cloud and rain spell, it only becomes
6:03:48more moist and plump, it did not exhibit
6:03:50the exact same characteristics as the
6:03:52mutated spirit rice. Whether it's the
6:03:55lesser cloud rain technique or the
6:03:56greater cloud rain technique, they are
6:03:58both simulating natural rainfall, but
6:04:00they are still somewhat lacking. Such
6:04:02Chongqing said with a hint of regret.
6:04:04Then he ran towards the Rocky Mountain
6:04:06without stopping. They skillfully
6:04:08drilled into the interior space. Under
6:04:11his careful cultivation, the mutated
6:04:13rice thrived. After all, it absorbed all
6:04:16the nutrients from this black soil.
6:04:18Immature abundant spiritual energy. Many
6:04:21children, many blessings. After careful
6:04:23observation, Su Choning pondered. Once
6:04:26it matures, I will keep all the rice
6:04:28grains and cultivate them separately to
6:04:30see how they differ from normal spirit
6:04:32rice. Seeing that there was no problem,
6:04:34he turned and left. Once outside, the
6:04:37guinea foul made a clucking sound. You
6:04:39can tell from the sound that they've
6:04:40laid another egg. It happens every 3
6:04:43days, always at the same time, very
6:04:45punctually. However, Su Chonqing himself
6:04:48didn't eat much. He fed it all to the
6:04:50little yellow dog. In the past 6 months,
6:04:52it has grown taller and taller, but
6:04:55because it's reached an awkward stage,
6:04:57so his appearance is a bit rough. In
6:04:59particular, the hair became extremely
6:05:01messy. Su Chongqing couldn't help but
6:05:03laugh every time he saw the little
6:05:05yellow dog's monkeylike face. Sure
6:05:07enough, when we arrived at the spot
6:05:09where the guinea fowl lay their eggs,
6:05:11the little guy has been waiting for a
6:05:12long time. Although I was craving
6:05:14something, I kept drooling. But because
6:05:16Su Chongqing had privately disciplined
6:05:19beat him, he didn't dare to act
6:05:21recklessly. Woof woof. It barked a few
6:05:23times as if urging. What's the rush?
6:05:26It's all yours anyway. Such Chanqing
6:05:28shrugged. He took out a handful of
6:05:30second grade spirit rice from his small
6:05:31storage bag. There are probably around a
6:05:33hundred of them. Then place it in front
6:05:35of the guinea fowl. After it had
6:05:37finished pecking at each egg, it picked
6:05:39up the eggs from the ground and headed
6:05:41towards the kitchen. Soon, the room was
6:05:43filled with the aroma of food. In this
6:05:45kind of life, one person, one dog, and
6:05:48one chicken, repeats itself almost every
6:05:50day. Chapter 42. We agreed to go fishing
6:05:54using rice wine as bait. Chapter 42. We
6:05:57agreed to go fishing using rice wine as
6:05:59bait. The orange red sun hung in the
6:06:02sky. The intense heat radiates across
6:06:04the earth. The incessant chirping of
6:06:06cicas was deafening. Occasionally, a
6:06:08gentle breeze blows, but it doesn't
6:06:10bring any coolness. Summer is too
6:06:12unfriendly to its spirit roots. Su
6:06:15Chongqing slumped into a wooden chair by
6:06:17the door, his face showing a look of
6:06:19utter despair. I'm not afraid of the
6:06:21cold in winter, but I'm afraid of the
6:06:23heat in summer. The higher the
6:06:24temperature, the more listless and weak
6:06:26a person feels. It wasn't just him. Even
6:06:29the little yellow dog and Guinea Fowl
6:06:31were listless. They all huddled in dark
6:06:33corners, too afraid to go out. At that
6:06:36moment, a communication talisman in the
6:06:38small storage bag vibrated. Such
6:06:40Chongqing took it out and saw that it
6:06:42was Hubui. What? Want to go fishing?
6:06:45You're not selling manure anymore. It's
6:06:47too hot. It won't sell well. Oh, where
6:06:50are you going fishing? Just tell me if
6:06:51you're coming or not. I want to go, but
6:06:53I don't have any fishing gear. I have
6:06:56some here. Where should we meet? Wait
6:06:58for me at the fork in the road near the
6:06:59core area. I'll be there shortly. since
6:07:02he had nothing better to do. Su Chonqing
6:07:04accepted Hubu<unk>'s invitation.
6:07:06Although his fishing skills weren't
6:07:07great, but I'm quite curious about what
6:07:09kind of fish I can catch. However,
6:07:12before going, packed two caddies of
6:07:13spirit rice wine. Then they went to the
6:07:15second grade spirit field and picked a
6:07:17half-ripe watermelon. It's a bit far, so
6:07:20I won't take you. Just rest at home.
6:07:22Such Chanqing put a straw hat on his
6:07:24head and then walked towards the fork in
6:07:26the road near the core management
6:07:27office. Under the scorching heat, the
6:07:30speed naturally increased. There were
6:07:32hardly any people along the way. Almost
6:07:34everyone was staying at home and not
6:07:36going out. The fork in the road is where
6:07:38I rented paper cranes last time I went
6:07:40to the Red Maple Valley Market, waiting
6:07:42and waiting, waiting and waiting.
6:07:45Finally, a series of loud bangs came
6:07:47from not far away. Su Chonqing glanced
6:07:49to the side and saw a camel galloping
6:07:51towards him. From the middle of the
6:07:53camel<unk>s hump, Hubuay waved
6:07:55excitedly. Sorry to keep you waiting.
6:07:57Finally here, Su Chongqing breathed a
6:08:00sigh of relief. Soon the camel stopped
6:08:02in front of him. Then he lowered his
6:08:04body slightly. Upon seeing this, Su
6:08:06Chongqing immediately climbed up. Once
6:08:09he was settled, Hub Buguay shouted,
6:08:11"Run!" Instantly, the camel<unk>s four
6:08:13hoves pounded wildly, and it galloped
6:08:15away. To be fair, it is indeed quite
6:08:18fast, but it also raises a lot of dust.
6:08:21Such Choning had to pull his straw hat
6:08:23down a bit, otherwise his face would be
6:08:25all dirty. At this moment, Hubuay spoke
6:08:28up. You're so young. Why do you stay in
6:08:30the spirit fields all day long? Why
6:08:32don't you come out and wander around and
6:08:33have some fun? Su Chongqing shrugged
6:08:36upon hearing this. I'm a bit of a
6:08:38homebody. Stay at home. You like houses.
6:08:40Hubui<unk>s eyes were blank. Such
6:08:43Chonqing blinked, then explained. We
6:08:45just joined the core of the spirit
6:08:46field, so we dare not be careless for
6:08:49fear that the output will be
6:08:50insufficient and we will not be able to
6:08:52complete the mission. Hubuay nodded
6:08:55slightly. I understand. I was in the
6:08:57same boat as you when I first joined the
6:08:59spirit beast valley. The two chatted
6:09:01casually. Half an hour had passed, which
6:09:03is now an hour. The scene ahead
6:09:05gradually changed. To the left is a lush
6:09:08forest. On the right is a shimmering
6:09:10river. There are already quite a few
6:09:11anglers here. In the sweltering summer
6:09:13heat, he sat quietly on the fishing
6:09:16platform without uttering a sound. There
6:09:18are too many people here. Let's move
6:09:20forward a bit. Hubuay did not stop.
6:09:22Therefore, after going forward for about
6:09:24a few hundred meters, there is a left
6:09:26turn. There were hardly any people left
6:09:28to see. Even if there were, they would
6:09:30be on the other side of the river. At
6:09:32this moment, Hubuga controlled the
6:09:34camel, gradually slowing down its speed.
6:09:37After a short while, it stopped under a
6:09:39shady tree. The two men jumped off the
6:09:41camel's hump one after the other. While
6:09:43taking things out of his small storage
6:09:45bag, Hubu said, "If you don't want to go
6:09:47fishing, you can go for a swim. Is there
6:09:50something in this river?" Su Chongqing
6:09:52couldn't help but think of the Schwan Wu
6:09:54companion beast he had seen at the
6:09:55Imperial Water Pavilion before that hund
6:09:58Jong- tongue snake. In response, Hubui
6:10:02said mysteriously, "Apart from the
6:10:04spring water, all the streams and rivers
6:10:06in Link originate from the black lake in
6:10:08Yushu Pavilion." Su Chanqing raised an
6:10:11eyebrow, "You mean there really is
6:10:13something?" Hubui took a few steps
6:10:15closer to the riverbank, began to choose
6:10:17a fishing spot, and then said, "I heard
6:10:20from others that a black coffin floated
6:10:21down this river before." The blood that
6:10:24flowed from the cracks killed all life
6:10:26in the water. Even the immortal master
6:10:28was alarmed at that time. This piqued Su
6:10:30Chongqing<unk>s interest even more, and
6:10:32he couldn't help but move closer, asking
6:10:35with a curious expression, "Doesn't that
6:10:37mean that there were already people here
6:10:38before our daunting immortal sect? I
6:10:41think so." Hubuay wasn't entirely sure
6:10:43either. After all, that happened
6:10:45thousands, even tens of thousands of
6:10:47years ago. He was just a formal disciple
6:10:50who had joined the spirit beast valley a
6:10:52few years ago. All the information was
6:10:53heard from other people. Should we just
6:10:55go back? What if there's real danger? Su
6:10:58Chongqing thought to himself, "Are you
6:11:00still going to fish?" Hubui finished
6:11:02getting everything ready, turned around,
6:11:04and found that the other person hadn't
6:11:06even started fishing. Uh, fishing. After
6:11:09thinking it over, Su Chongqing finally
6:11:11gave up the idea of leaving. It's not
6:11:13easy to get out of the house. It was an
6:11:15invitation from a friend. We can't let
6:11:17the other person down. So, he found a
6:11:19spot nearby. The fish hooks, fishing
6:11:21lines, fishing rods, and bait were all
6:11:23provided by Hubu. Such Chonqing then
6:11:26took out a second grade spirit rice wine
6:11:28and a half-ripe watermelon. Spirit rice
6:11:30wine. Hubuay's eyes lit up. He really
6:11:33craved this stuff. The pound I brought
6:11:35back last time, I've already finished it
6:11:37all. Just as I was wondering what excuse
6:11:39to come up with, someone brought it to
6:11:40me on their own initiative. Su Chonqing
6:11:43chuckled and said, "Simply fishing is
6:11:45too boring." The two then went fishing
6:11:47and drank together. As a result, they
6:11:49didn't catch any fish, but instead drank
6:11:52most of the wine. Meanwhile, the angller
6:11:54on the other side was catching fish one
6:11:56after another, reaping a bountiful
6:11:58harvest. After a while, Hubui said with
6:12:01a flushed face, "Something's not right.
6:12:03Why are all the fish on the other side?"
6:12:05Su Chongqing observed this and pondered.
6:12:08This person seems to have used some kind
6:12:09of method. Although the river is not
6:12:11swift, it is not calm. But the opposite
6:12:14side remained completely still. It was
6:12:16as calm as a mirror. But something about
6:12:18it was definitely not right. Then what's
6:12:20the point of fishing? Huboo, fueled by
6:12:23alcohol, angrily flung his hand away.
6:12:26Immediately, the remaining half cup of
6:12:27spirit rice wine in his hand was spilled
6:12:29out. A miraculous scene unfolded. They
6:12:32didn't have a single fish here
6:12:33originally. As a result, almost at the
6:12:36same time, after the rice wine was
6:12:38dissolved in the water, both of their
6:12:39fishing rods began to shake. The fishing
6:12:42line tightened instantly, the fish took
6:12:44the bait. Such Chonqing and Hubu
6:12:46exchanged a glance, both extremely
6:12:48surprised.
6:12:51Soon, two large plump silver carp were
6:12:53pulled out of the water. Next, the two
6:12:56seemed to break a curse. The fish were
6:12:58coming one after another. What's going
6:13:00on? Ziao Zua asked, bewildered. from
6:13:02across the river. He used the water
6:13:04interception technique to stop the flow
6:13:06of water in front of him. Then the
6:13:08pre-prepared bait was sprinkled on top.
6:13:11Unexpectedly, ever since the two people
6:13:13on the other side appeared, there are
6:13:15fewer and fewer fish on our side. It's
6:13:17been 10 minutes since a fish took the
6:13:19bait. But the other side just wouldn't
6:13:21stop. In just a short while, at least
6:13:23dozens of big silver carp were caught.
6:13:25Chapter 43. Meeting Xiao Zua and
6:13:28agreeing to meet at Black Dragon Pool.
6:13:30Chapter 43. meeting Xiao Xiua and
6:13:33agreeing to meet at Black Dragon Pool.
6:13:35Such Chonqing was surprised to see that
6:13:37he was catching more and more fish.
6:13:39Unexpectedly, the spirit rice wine has
6:13:42this effect. This is truly an unexpected
6:13:44discovery. Huh, I can brag about this
6:13:47for a year when I get back. Hubui
6:13:49grinned. Although there was no air force
6:13:51before, the number of them was never
6:13:53large. This time it exploded. In just a
6:13:55short time, nearly a hundred big silver
6:13:57carp were caught. Such Chanqing looked
6:14:00across the river and suddenly froze. The
6:14:02person opposite seemed to have given up
6:14:04on the idea of fishing. Holding a
6:14:06fishing rod in one hand, he was holding
6:14:08on to the fishing net with one hand.
6:14:10They walked step by step towards them
6:14:12across the water. In no time at all,
6:14:14they were almost within reach. And so,
6:14:16the three of them stared at each other
6:14:18wideeyed. Look at me. I'm looking at
6:14:20you. For a moment, no one spoke. The
6:14:23atmosphere became increasingly awkward.
6:14:25Um, after a long while, Ziao Xi was the
6:14:28first to lose his composure. What's the
6:14:30matter? Hubuay looked at the other party
6:14:32wearily. Ziao Ziua gave an awkward
6:14:34smile. May I ask what kind of bake you
6:14:37use? No way. Hubuay refused decisively.
6:14:40Taking advantage of the other party's in
6:14:42attention, Su Chongqing secretly put the
6:14:44spirit rice wine into his small storage
6:14:47bag. Suddenly, only a faint smell of
6:14:49alcohol remained in the surroundings. In
6:14:52addition, there was a watermelon that
6:14:54was half ripe. Seeing that the two were
6:14:56somewhat wary, Ziao Ziua realized that
6:14:58his questioning earlier had been a bit
6:15:00excessive. So, he waved his hand and
6:15:02said, "Don't misunderstand. I'm not
6:15:04trying to steal your bait. I'm just
6:15:06curious." Su Chongqing said, "We're not
6:15:09familiar with you. Why should we say
6:15:11anything?" Xiao Zi suddenly realized and
6:15:14then introduced himself. My surname is
6:15:16Xiao. My given name is Zi. I have
6:15:19awakened the water spirit route and I am
6:15:21a foundation building disciple of the
6:15:23imperial water pavilion. Upon hearing
6:15:25this, Su Chongqing and Hubu were both
6:15:27taken aback. Good heavens, he's actually
6:15:30a fisherman in the foundation
6:15:31establishment stage. No wonder they can
6:15:33walk on water. And who are you two? Ziao
6:15:36Xua blinked. Hubui was a little
6:15:38confused, but upon seeing this, he
6:15:41grinned and introduced. So this is
6:15:43senior brother Xiao who is in the
6:15:45foundation establishment stage. I am
6:15:47Hubu, a formal disciple of the spirit
6:15:50beast valley. And this is Su Chongqing,
6:15:52a formal disciple of the spirit field.
6:15:54Su Chonqing frowned slightly. Why did
6:15:57this guy reveal the real information?
6:15:59What if the other party has ill
6:16:00intentions? Drinking is indeed harmful.
6:16:03It seems I can't bring Lingi wine with
6:16:04me next time. Ziao Xua nodded slightly.
6:16:07Greetings, fellow junior brothers. If
6:16:09you don't mind, could I join you? Huh?
6:16:12Su Chongqing and Hubu were quite
6:16:14surprised. Xiao Zua shrugged helplessly.
6:16:16I'm out of fish over there. Sure, of
6:16:18course. This time, Hubu didn't refuse.
6:16:22Such Chanqing saw it all, but had no
6:16:24idea what this guy was thinking. The
6:16:26other party is a complete stranger.
6:16:28Fortunately, he had already put away the
6:16:30spirit rice wine in advance. Next, Ziao
6:16:33simply chose a spot next to them. Then,
6:16:35we went fishing together. However,
6:16:38because there was no more spirit rice
6:16:39wine to continue using as bait, so the
6:16:42three of them didn't catch many fish in
6:16:43the time that followed. As afternoon
6:16:45approached, Ziao Xiua, holding a
6:16:47half-ripe watermelon, asked, "Do you two
6:16:50junior brothers know of Black Dragon
6:16:52Pool?" "Black Dragon Pool?" Su Chongqing
6:16:55looked bewildered. Hubui<unk>s eyes
6:16:57widened. "It's at the border of the
6:16:59spirit field and the spirit beast
6:17:01valley, that legendary black dragon
6:17:03pool, where a demonic dragon is said to
6:17:05have emerged. Not bad, Zia Xiua
6:17:08affirmed. Why did he suddenly bring this
6:17:10up? Su Chonqing wondered. Ziao Xiwa
6:17:12glanced at the two men and seeing their
6:17:15different reactions continued. Your bait
6:17:17is indeed very effective, but fishing
6:17:19here is pointless. How about we set a
6:17:22time to go to Black Dragon Pool and try
6:17:24out the dragonfish there? Upon hearing
6:17:26the words dragon fish, who instantly
6:17:28sobered up considerably, his gaze
6:17:31shifted back and forth between Su
6:17:32Chongqing and Xiaozi. It seems like they
6:17:35are weighing something. My two junior
6:17:37brothers, there's no rush. Take your
6:17:39time to consider it. It's getting late.
6:17:41I'll be leaving now. Xiao Zua put all
6:17:44his spoils into his storage bag. And
6:17:46before leaving, he suddenly took out a
6:17:48communication talisman, but he did not
6:17:50hand it to Su Chongqing. Instead, it was
6:17:52delivered to Hubu. They didn't rush
6:17:55them. He just watched with a smile.
6:17:57Hubuay did not hesitate and immediately
6:17:59took it. Xiao Zu showed a satisfied
6:18:01expression. Junior brother, contact me
6:18:04when you've thought it over. Then he
6:18:06walked away step by step across the
6:18:08river. In no time, the person was
6:18:10already over a hundred meters away. They
6:18:12quickly disappeared from their sight.
6:18:14What exactly is wrong with you? Su
6:18:16Chongqing stood up and questioned him
6:18:18with a serious expression. Sigh. Hubu
6:18:21sighed. Then replied, I was a little
6:18:23confused just now, and I thought that
6:18:25the other party was a foundation
6:18:26establishment disciple, so I decided to
6:18:29make friends with him. Such
6:18:30Choning<unk>s expression darkened
6:18:32slightly. I meant going to Black Dragon
6:18:34Pool. Hubui paused for a moment, then
6:18:36explained, "There is a kind of dragon
6:18:38fish in Black Dragon Pool, which is said
6:18:41to contain a thin bloodline of a demonic
6:18:43dragon, so each one is very valuable."
6:18:46And then Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow,
6:18:49neither confirming nor denying. Hubui
6:18:52gritted his teeth and simply told the
6:18:54truth. In the Spirit Beast Valley, there
6:18:56is a golden core stage fisherman who has
6:18:58very strict conditions for accepting
6:19:00disciples, one of which is rare fish.
6:19:03Therefore, I want to catch an arowana to
6:19:05see if I can become its apprentice. Upon
6:19:07learning that the other party had this
6:19:09idea, Su Chongqing was speechless, let
6:19:11alone in the Donging immortal sect. Even
6:19:14anywhere, everyone wants to improve
6:19:16themselves in order to change their
6:19:18identity and status. Hubui glanced
6:19:21around and seeing that no one was nearby
6:19:23said seriously I don't want to keep
6:19:25selling dirty smelly excrement and I
6:19:28don't want to beg people for cooperation
6:19:29everywhere as a friend you should
6:19:32understand right but Su Chongqing
6:19:34hesitated for a moment then continued
6:19:37this spirit rice wine may not be
6:19:38effective Hubuay took a deep breath
6:19:41let's give it a try what if it works
6:19:43what do you plan to do Chanqing asked in
6:19:46a gentler tone immediately laughed and
6:19:49said, "You don't need to get involved.
6:19:51I'll go with Xiao Xiua." Okay. Su
6:19:54Choning took out the remaining half a
6:19:56caddy of spirit rice wine. Hubuay took
6:19:58the hand and said, "Even if it doesn't
6:20:01succeed, at least I'll get to know a
6:20:03foundation establishment stage water
6:20:04elemental route, which is still
6:20:06worthwhile for me." As a friend, Su
6:20:08Chonqing naturally hoped that Hubuga
6:20:11could catch a dragonfish and even
6:20:13successfully become his apprentice.
6:20:15Therefore, since the other party has
6:20:17already considered the consequences,
6:20:19there is no need for me to interfere.
6:20:21Ultimately, the two are not related.
6:20:23They are not related by blood. There's
6:20:25no need to get involved. It was evening.
6:20:27Such Chongqing finally returned home.
6:20:30This fishing trip was very fruitful.
6:20:32There were dozens of large silver carb
6:20:34in the small storage bag. If you eat one
6:20:36a day, it will last for 2 months. Woof
6:20:38woof. The little yellow dog wagged its
6:20:40tail excitedly. Cluck cluck. The guinea
6:20:43fowls eyes darted around. Seeing this,
6:20:45Su Chanqing felt completely relaxed.
6:20:48Sure enough, nowhere is as good as home.
6:20:50I should just stick to farming from now
6:20:52on. He immediately went into the kitchen
6:20:54and began cooking with practiced ease. I
6:20:56ate it myself. The dog ate it. The
6:20:59guinea foul ate it. Finally, everyone
6:21:01had a delicious piece of braced fish in
6:21:03their bowl. Chapter 44. Busy summer
6:21:06harvest for Thousand Gene of Spirit
6:21:08Rice. Chapter 44. Busy Summer Harvest
6:21:11for Thousand Gene of Spirit Rice. The
6:21:13Great Heat. the hottest day of the year.
6:21:15The sun, like a dam bursting open,
6:21:18poured out its intense rays. All plants,
6:21:20whether flowers, grass, trees, or any
6:21:23other kind, were wilting. The rice,
6:21:26four-leaf clover, watermelon, and
6:21:28Chinese cabbage were all dried in the
6:21:30sun. The mutated spirit rice at the foot
6:21:32of the stone mountain remained
6:21:34unchanged. I don't know if it's because
6:21:36it's stronger in all aspects or because
6:21:38it doesn't get direct sunlight.
6:21:40Fortunately, Su Chongqing had made a
6:21:42promise with Binger a long time ago. On
6:21:44the day of the great heat, the other
6:21:46party will come to bring a divine rain.
6:21:48To prevent the other party from
6:21:50forgetting, I specifically reminded them
6:21:52this morning using a communication
6:21:54symbol. Binger is currently heading
6:21:56towards the spirit field. Once the great
6:21:58heat passes, it means the second quarter
6:22:00is entering its final countdown. We can
6:22:02harvest in just a few days. Such
6:22:05Chanqing, wearing a straw hat, stood on
6:22:07the edge of the field observing the
6:22:09condition of the spiritual plants.
6:22:11Normally, I wouldn't be this serious,
6:22:13not even a few days ago. However, extra
6:22:15care should still be taken during the
6:22:17solar terms. Not long after, a paper
6:22:20crane flew in from a distance with a
6:22:22person standing on it. It's<unk> obvious
6:22:24without even guessing. Only Binger would
6:22:26come to such a remote area. Fellow Daist
6:22:29by Su Choning said with a smile. Binger
6:22:32asked in surprise. Fellow Daist Su,
6:22:34it's<unk> so hot. Why did you wait for
6:22:36me outside? Su Chongqing shrugged.
6:22:38It's<unk> not just about waiting for
6:22:40you. After all, this is my first time
6:22:42experiencing the great heat, so I dare
6:22:44not let my guard down. I must keep a
6:22:46close eye on the spiritual plants to
6:22:48prevent any accidents from happening.
6:22:50Binger nodded slightly to show her
6:22:52understanding, then jumped off the
6:22:53flying paper crane. Then I won't waste
6:22:56any more words. I have to rush back
6:22:58after I finish what I'm doing here. Then
6:23:00she immediately cast the minor cloud
6:23:02rain technique. However, this time the
6:23:05efficiency was a bit lower than before.
6:23:07The speed at which water elemental
6:23:09energy gathers is slower than usual,
6:23:12especially the edges which were almost
6:23:14instantly evaporated by the intense
6:23:15sunlight. Fortunately, after several
6:23:18adjustments, ultimately it still
6:23:20coalesed into a slightly dark cloud.
6:23:23Soon, the sound of raindrops pattering
6:23:24could be heard. The temperature near
6:23:26Lingon has dropped. The long-lost
6:23:28coolness instantly filled the air. Su
6:23:31Chongqing felt the refreshing coolness
6:23:33of drinking cold water after being
6:23:35thirsty for days. He quickly moved
6:23:37closer to Binger and asked trying to
6:23:39make conversation. Are you in such a
6:23:41hurry to go back? Is something wrong at
6:23:43home? Binger replied, "There is still
6:23:45more than a year until the formal
6:23:47disciple grand competition. formal
6:23:49disciples who went out to do missions in
6:23:51places such as Yushua Pavilion, Forging
6:23:53Peak, Alchemy Pavilion, Spirit Field,
6:23:56Earth Vein, Spirit Beast Valley,
6:23:58Sorrowful Wind Cliff, and Thunder Forest
6:24:01are all rushing back. Therefore, my
6:24:03father ordered me to draw more talismans
6:24:05so I could sell them for a good price
6:24:07later. Isn't there still more than a
6:24:08year left?" Such Chanqing asked in
6:24:11astonishment. He couldn't understand it
6:24:13because he didn't plan to participate in
6:24:15the formal disciple competition. Binger
6:24:17chuckled and said, "These formal
6:24:19disciples who have been away for a long
6:24:21time must have a lot of spirit stones
6:24:23and rare items stored in their storage
6:24:25bags. Since we're going to participate
6:24:27in the formal disciple competition, we
6:24:29definitely need to improve our strength,
6:24:31especially those in the lateqi refining
6:24:33stage to the early foundation
6:24:35establishment stage have a greater
6:24:37demand for resources." Su Chongqing
6:24:39wasn't stupid. He understood what the
6:24:41other person meant as soon as he heard
6:24:43it. However, this also reminded him, "I
6:24:46just happen to have over 2,000 caddies
6:24:48of grade 2 spirit rice on hand. Another
6:24:50round of harvesting from the spirit
6:24:52fields will follow, yielding at least
6:24:54another 2,000 caddies. If what Binger
6:24:56said is true, then these people
6:24:58definitely need it. Although, an
6:25:00individual cannot compare to a behemoth
6:25:02like Noxam. It's even less likely that
6:25:04they will be able to compete for the
6:25:06market. Even if we can't eat meat, at
6:25:08least we can have some meat broth.
6:25:10Moreover, Such Chanqing also has the
6:25:12trump card of Lingi Wine. Everyone who
6:25:14has tried it has said it's bad. A while
6:25:16later, the little cloud rain technique
6:25:18ended. Binger jumped onto the flying
6:25:20paper crane and said, "As agreed, I have
6:25:23completed the third rainfall. If there
6:25:25is a need again, we will have to make a
6:25:27new agreement." Yes. Su Choning nodded.
6:25:30Binger smiled slightly. Then I'll go
6:25:33back first. Such Chonqing waved his hand
6:25:36and said, "Goodbye." Afterwards,
6:25:38Bilinger controlled the flying paper
6:25:40crane to rush towards the Imperial Water
6:25:42Pavilion. As Su Chongqing watched the
6:25:44other person's figure gradually blur, he
6:25:47couldn't help but ponder. With the
6:25:49increase in the number of returning
6:25:50formal disciples, the Red Maple Valley
6:25:52Market will definitely have to open
6:25:54ahead of schedule. I won't even sell
6:25:56spirit rice then. Just selling second
6:25:58grade spirit rice wine will earn me a
6:26:00lot of spirit stones, and I can even
6:26:02exchange it for various rare items.
6:26:05After thinking it over, he returned his
6:26:07attention to the spirit field. Sure
6:26:09enough, after the spiritual reign, these
6:26:11spiritual plants became plump again. The
6:26:14only pity is that there is still not a
6:26:16single mutated plant. The only
6:26:17difference from usual is that production
6:26:19will be higher. In the days that
6:26:21followed, Such Chongqing was brewing
6:26:23second grade spirit rice wine while
6:26:25waiting for the harvest. As for Hu
6:26:27Buguay and Xiao Zua's trip to Black
6:26:29Dragon Pool, they completely forgot
6:26:31about it. After all, he no longer has
6:26:34any connection with this. Whatever the
6:26:35final outcome, Hubuay will bear the
6:26:38consequences personally. Time flew by,
6:26:40and finally, the day of harvest arrived.
6:26:43Looking at the plump grains of spirit
6:26:45rice in the spirit field, Su Chongqing
6:26:47felt a strange sense of satisfaction,
6:26:50like having a child late in life.
6:26:52Immediately, he activated the evergreen
6:26:54technique to sense his surroundings.
6:26:56Mature, abundant spiritual energy, no
6:26:59loss. Second grade spirit rice. Today's
6:27:02best production for thousand gene. H Su
6:27:06Chongqing gasped for breath from 3,500
6:27:10in spring to 4,000 in summer. It seems
6:27:12that the span is only 500 gene. In fact,
6:27:16this means that the production of top
6:27:18grade spiritual rice has reached its
6:27:19limit. If more is to be added, mutated
6:27:22spirit rice must be added.
6:27:24Alternatively, one could increase the
6:27:26spiritual field size from one moo to two
6:27:28moo. Unfortunately, Su Chongqing did not
6:27:31reach the foundation establishment
6:27:32stage. Moreover, even if he met the
6:27:35requirements, he wouldn't tell anyone.
6:27:37Keep a low profile for at least a few
6:27:39years and then see how things go after
6:27:41you've reached the same level as most
6:27:43people. In fact, most gins do not have
6:27:45this kind of trouble. Even if one
6:27:47reaches the foundation establishment
6:27:49stage, the yield of one moo of spiritual
6:27:51field is only around 2 to 3,000. There
6:27:54are almost no people like Su Chongqing
6:27:57who have reached their limit in less
6:27:58than a year since joining. Perhaps this
6:28:00is what it means to experience both pain
6:28:02and pleasure. Then Su Chongqing picked
6:28:05up his everyday magical weapon, the
6:28:07sickle, and began harvesting. Harvesting
6:28:10one supreme spirit rice plant increases
6:28:12lifespan by 6 days. Harvesting one
6:28:15supreme spirit rice plant increases
6:28:17lifespan by 6 days. Harvesting one
6:28:20supreme spirit rice plant increases
6:28:22lifespan by 6 days. After a lot of hard
6:28:25work, the rice harvest was finally
6:28:27completed. In addition, there are 4,000
6:28:29caddies of second grade spiritual rice.
6:28:32I currently have a total of 6,240
6:28:35gene, 362.5
6:28:37caddies. However, considering that 150
6:28:40gene had to be given to Hubu, another
6:28:431,500 gene, 750 caddies must be handed
6:28:47over and a portion was used to brew
6:28:49spirit rice wine. The actual amount of
6:28:51spiritual rice in my possession is 4,390
6:28:55gene. However, Su Chongqing was not in a
6:28:58hurry to check the attribute panel.
6:28:59Instead, they harvested fourleaf
6:29:01clovers, watermelons, and cabbages all
6:29:04at once. Harvesting one four-leaf clover
6:29:06increases its lifespan by 5 days.
6:29:09Harvesting one premium Chinese cabbage
6:29:11increases its lifespan by 3 days.
6:29:14Harvesting one highquality large
6:29:16watermelon adds 3 days to its lifespan.
6:29:19It was evening. As the sun sets, the
6:29:21light grows dimmer. The sweltering heat
6:29:24finally came to an abrupt end. Such
6:29:26Chonqing also harvested all the
6:29:28spiritual plants in the spiritual field.
6:29:30Then he looked at the long-lost
6:29:31attribute panel. Such Chonqing, male, 19
6:29:35years old. Remaining lifespan 69,566
6:29:40days. Wood spirit root late stage ofqi
6:29:43refining evergreen technique level five.
6:29:46Lingi wine expert wood spirit
6:29:48entanglement third layer Ironwood armor
6:29:51technique level four if I remember
6:29:53correctly it was previously 59,480
6:29:57days after harvesting the rice fourleaf
6:30:00clover Chinese cabbage and watermelon
6:30:02these add up to exactly 10,086 days
6:30:06today the overall lifespan has reached
6:30:08190 years once again approaching 200
6:30:11years chapter 45 first mission first
6:30:14paper crane chapter 45. First mission,
6:30:17first paper crane. Facing so many
6:30:19lifespans in production. However, Such
6:30:22Chan was not satisfied. After climbing
6:30:24up the ridge, he didn't go back to the
6:30:26house. Instead, they immediately headed
6:30:29towards the Rocky Mountain. I plan to
6:30:31take another look at the mutated spirit
6:30:33rice before it gets dark. He quickly and
6:30:35skillfully crawled into the hole. As
6:30:37they ventured deeper, the only spiritual
6:30:39plant in the black soil came into view.
6:30:41It is taller and more robust than when
6:30:44we first met. The seeds on the rice ears
6:30:46are all very plump. It was so heavy that
6:30:48it even bent the mutated spirit rice
6:30:50over. It would occasionally sway up and
6:30:52down a few times. If the seed of this
6:30:55mutated spiritual plant grows into a
6:30:57mutated spiritual plant as well, then my
6:30:59future yield will exceed 4,000 gene and
6:31:02may even reach 5,000 or 6,000 gene. Such
6:31:05Chongqing approached and half squatted
6:31:07down, then activated the Chongqing
6:31:09technique. Level five, immature abundant
6:31:12spiritual energy. many children, many
6:31:15blessings. To my utter surprise, it
6:31:17still hasn't matured. It was clearly
6:31:19golden all over. Each seed is twice the
6:31:22size of the seeds of the finest
6:31:23spiritual rice found elsewhere. The
6:31:26result is that it is still in the growth
6:31:27stage, which is incredible. It's easy to
6:31:30imagine how amazing it will be once it
6:31:32matures. Keep waiting. I have plenty of
6:31:34time. Anyway, Such Chongqing took a deep
6:31:36breath. Next, he watered the hut several
6:31:39times with spring water before returning
6:31:41to the cabin. I started cooking for the
6:31:43little yellow dog, the guinea fowl, and
6:31:45myself. Even if you obtain a lot of
6:31:47spirit rice, harvest as many lifespans
6:31:50as possible. His life remained unchanged
6:31:52from beginning to end. Time quickly came
6:31:55to the day when the spirit rice was to
6:31:57be handed over. Early in the morning, Su
6:31:59Chonqing, wearing a straw hat, walked
6:32:02step by step toward the core management
6:32:04office. However, this time he is
6:32:06considering buying a flying paper crane
6:32:08as a means of transportation. Walking
6:32:11there every time is such a waste of
6:32:12time. When they arrived at the Ping Shan
6:32:14Palace, it was already packed with
6:32:16people. Normally, you wouldn't see many
6:32:18people, but now there was a huge crowd.
6:32:21Such Chongqing waited in line for a long
6:32:23time before it was finally his turn. In
6:32:25addition to the thousand caddies from
6:32:26the spring, this also includes the
6:32:28weight of the grain. Now, only half of
6:32:31the task for this year remains to be
6:32:32completed. That is 2,500 caddies of
6:32:36second grade spiritual rice. Although
6:32:38with the grain reserves Su Chongqing
6:32:40currently has, he can complete the
6:32:42mission ahead of schedule. But there's
6:32:44really no need for that. A formal
6:32:45disciple who has been a member of the
6:32:47core of the spirit field for less than a
6:32:49year. If the task is completed ahead of
6:32:51schedule, this is bound to arouse
6:32:53suspicion among many people. Su
6:32:55Chongqing<unk>s idea was very simple.
6:32:57Just play it safe and survive. There's
6:32:59no need to be too outstanding. There's
6:33:01no need to attract anyone's attention.
6:33:03Previously, I used 30 points to exchange
6:33:06for seeds of fourleaf clover, Chinese
6:33:08cabbage, and watermelon. Therefore, the
6:33:10remaining points are 470. Now, after
6:33:13submitting, 1500 gene of second grade
6:33:16spiritual rice, I have received 275
6:33:18points. Therefore, the points have
6:33:21successfully exceeded 700. We are one
6:33:23step closer to exchanging for the third
6:33:25part, the second part of the immortal
6:33:27sect of advanced cultivation techniques.
6:33:30However, Such Chanqing spent another 20
6:33:32points exchange for seeds of sweet
6:33:34potato and chili pepper. I still haven't
6:33:37used up the fourleaf clover, Chinese
6:33:39cabbage, and watermelon seeds I redeemed
6:33:41earlier. After everything was settled,
6:33:43he did not leave immediately. Instead,
6:33:46he greeted Elder Hua and then walked
6:33:48towards the mission wall. Upon reaching
6:33:50the base of the wall, I indeed saw a
6:33:52great many tasks. Compared to last time,
6:33:55this time there are even more items.
6:33:57Moreover, some of them seem to have even
6:33:59more demanding conditions. Seeking
6:34:01foundation establishment stage disciples
6:34:03with wood elemental roots to help
6:34:05cultivate century old spiritual plants.
6:34:08Points plus 60 reward plus five
6:34:10mid-grade spirit stones. This mission is
6:34:13still available. Such Chonqing was a
6:34:15little surprised, but then a task caught
6:34:17his attention. I couldn't help but take
6:34:19a closer look. Urgent mission. Find a
6:34:22disciple with a wood spirit route to
6:34:23care for the earth lotus for 7 days. 10
6:34:26points per day. Reward, one day plus 10
6:34:29lowgrade spirit stones. A 7-day mission.
6:34:32You can get plus 10 points and plus 10
6:34:34lowgrade spirit stones every day.
6:34:36Furthermore, there are no requirements
6:34:38regarding cultivation realm or technique
6:34:40level. Based on the strength that Su
6:34:42Chongqing has revealed to the public,
6:34:44there is no problem. Having nothing to
6:34:46do these past few days, he immediately
6:34:48accepted the task. Let's see how it goes
6:34:50first. If things really don't work out,
6:34:53you can give up anytime. As soon as Su
6:34:55Chongqing accepted the mission, he
6:34:57immediately received a communication
6:34:59talisman. This is the first time I've
6:35:01encountered this situation, so it's a
6:35:03bit unexpected. Soon after, it started
6:35:05flashing. Did you accept the task I
6:35:07posted? Right. May I have your name?
6:35:10Wood spirit route Su Chongqing. What
6:35:13about realm? Mid-stage chi refining. I
6:35:16am a foundation establishment stage
6:35:17disciple from the earth veins named who
6:35:19man. So it's senior brotherh. I live on
6:35:22the 18th floor of the lay line. You can
6:35:24open the entrance with a talisman. Okay.
6:35:26Senior brotherhood. Communication ended.
6:35:29Such Chanqing put it into his small
6:35:31storage bag. The other party only said
6:35:33they would take care of me, but did not
6:35:35explicitly say that they would live
6:35:36there. That means you only need to take
6:35:38care of the earth lotus everyday. In
6:35:41that case, there's no rush to go. Not to
6:35:43mention that we also have to cook for
6:35:44the little yellow dog and the guinea
6:35:46fowl. The daily commute between the
6:35:48spirit fields and the earth veins takes
6:35:50a lot of time. Therefore, Su Chongqing
6:35:53decided to buy a flying paper crane
6:35:54first. After thinking it over, he took
6:35:56out by Linger's communication talisman,
6:35:59then infuse a wisp of spiritual energy.
6:36:01Such Chonqing: Yes, it's me. Is it going
6:36:04to rain again? No. I came to you this
6:36:06time to buy paper cranes. I can draw
6:36:08talismans, but I can't make them. You've
6:36:10come to the wrong person. Then, who
6:36:13should I look for? Where are you? I am
6:36:15at the core management office of
6:36:16Linkion. If you post a purchase request,
6:36:19someone will contact you very quickly. I
6:36:21see. Thank you for your guidance, fellow
6:36:23Dowist. By then, let's not talk anymore.
6:36:26I'm very, very busy lately. By Linger
6:36:29ended the communication on her own
6:36:30initiative. Such Chonqing then gave a
6:36:33look of sudden realization and issued
6:36:35the task. The content is very simple. I
6:36:38urgently need a flying paper crane.
6:36:40Price plus 20 low-grade spirit stones
6:36:42just as Binger had said. As soon as the
6:36:45task was posted, someone immediately
6:36:47accepted it, and soon the location
6:36:49talisman began to flash continuously.
6:36:52Not long after, a disciple with a wood
6:36:54elemental route appeared in front of Su
6:36:56Chongqing. The man asked with a smile,
6:36:58"Fellow Dawist, is it you who wants a
6:37:00flying paper crane?" "Yes," Su Choning
6:37:03nodded. "My name is Haning. Although I
6:37:06am a disciple of the wood spirit route,
6:37:08I am also a middleman for a certain
6:37:10talisman master in the Imperial Water
6:37:12Pavilion." Haning introduced himself.
6:37:14The moment Su Chongqing saw the other
6:37:16person, he had already guessed what was
6:37:18going on. So, he wasn't surprised at all
6:37:20after hearing the introduction. Instead,
6:37:22he asked, "My name is Su Chongqing. When
6:37:25can I get the flying paper crane?" Upon
6:37:27hearing this, Haning took out several
6:37:29paper cranes from her storage bag and
6:37:31said, "I have three qualities here. Low,
6:37:34ordinary, and high. Which one do you
6:37:36need?" Upon seeing this, Su Chongqing
6:37:39raised an eyebrow and then examined it
6:37:41carefully. These inferior paper cranes
6:37:43look crudely made and the surface
6:37:45patterns are a mess. It might break down
6:37:47after only a few uses. Ordinary paper
6:37:49cranes are better in terms of material
6:37:51and texture and at least their
6:37:53appearance is not bad. As for high-grade
6:37:55paper cranes, they not only have a good
6:37:57texture, but also clear silky patterns
6:37:59that appear very regular. The three
6:38:01flying paper cranes are clearly the work
6:38:03of three talisman masters. At present,
6:38:06it is certain that the inferior one will
6:38:08not be chosen. basically choose between
6:38:11normal and advanced. Haing blinked has
6:38:13fellow Dowist Sue made his choice. Su
6:38:16Choni countered with what are the prices
6:38:18for the standard and premium models?
6:38:20Haing put away the inferior paper cranes
6:38:23and then replied ordinary ones only cost
6:38:2625 low-grade spirit stones while
6:38:28high-grade ones cost 88 low-grade spirit
6:38:30stones. How long will it last? Such
6:38:33Choning asked again. Haing grinned. If
6:38:36you use it normally, as long as it's not
6:38:38raining, it should last at least 2
6:38:40years. As for the advanced ones, they
6:38:42can last for 3 years regardless of wind
6:38:44or rain. Su Chongqing<unk>s lips
6:38:46twitched a few times. Then he said, "Too
6:38:48expensive." Haing shrugged helplessly.
6:38:51"Fellow Daist Su, don't you even look at
6:38:53the current market? All resources are
6:38:55going up in price. We can't possibly
6:38:57sell at a loss. 66 low-grade spirit
6:39:00stones of high quality," Su Chongqing
6:39:03said, frowning. Haing paused for a
6:39:05moment, then shook her head. Minimum 80
6:39:07pieces, no lower. Su Chonqing<unk>s face
6:39:10darkened. Stop talking nonsense. 70
6:39:13low-grade spirit stones. That's my
6:39:15bottom line. Deal. Hong Ying<unk>s
6:39:17expression changed instantly, revealing
6:39:19a warm smile. Damn, it drove too high.
6:39:23Such Chongqing was filled with regret.
6:39:25And so, after some haggling, I got a
6:39:27flying paper crane for 70 low-grade
6:39:29spirit stones. He then left without even
6:39:32taking the communication token. Haing
6:39:34watched the other person's departing
6:39:36figure. A sly glint in his eyes. This
6:39:38kid's good at bargaining, but he'll
6:39:40never guess that I only paid 40
6:39:42low-grade spirit stones for it. Chapter
6:39:4446. First entry into the earth's veins.
6:39:47Body weighing 1,000 lb. Chapter 46.
6:39:50First entry into the earth vein. Body
6:39:52weighing 1,000 lb. After buying the
6:39:54flying paper crane, Su Chongqing quickly
6:39:57went outside. However, instead of taking
6:40:00off from Pingshan, they walk down the
6:40:02steps to the bottom of the mountain.
6:40:03There are rules that unless one is an
6:40:05immortal master or a core disciple, one
6:40:08cannot approach or leave in this way.
6:40:10After arriving at the foot of the
6:40:11mountain, Su Chongqing found an open
6:40:13space and then took out the flying paper
6:40:15crane. Its initial form was not large,
6:40:18just a tiny one. When a wisp of
6:40:20spiritual energy was injected, this
6:40:22thing began to expand. In the blink of
6:40:24an eye, it grew to be more than 2 m long
6:40:27and more than 3 meters wide. At the same
6:40:29time, it produces a feeling like
6:40:31controlling one's own arm or fingers. It
6:40:34felt less like a flying paper crane and
6:40:36more like one's own hand. It can be
6:40:38controlled at will with just a thought
6:40:40without any hindrance. Such Chongqing
6:40:42continued to inject spiritual energy
6:40:44while jumping onto the back of the paper
6:40:46crane. Controlling it, it wobbled and
6:40:49flew towards its own spiritual field. At
6:40:51first, I wasn't very familiar with it,
6:40:53but as time went by, it became more and
6:40:55more adept at it. At a height of about
6:40:5710 m above the ground, the flying paper
6:41:00crane continued to move forward at an
6:41:02extremely stable speed. I'm quite
6:41:04satisfied with everything else. The only
6:41:06downside is that it lacks wind
6:41:08protection. When the speed is fast or
6:41:10when there is a wind blowing, there was
6:41:12always a whooshing sound in my ears.
6:41:14Fortunately, the novelty masks this
6:41:16drawback. Before long, Su Chongqing
6:41:19arrived directly above his own spiritual
6:41:21field. Perhaps it smelled its
6:41:23owner<unk>'s scent. The little yellow
6:41:24dog searched everywhere. It was right
6:41:27nearby, but I never saw it. She cried
6:41:29out in distress. Silly dog. Such
6:41:31Chonqing was both amused and
6:41:33exasperated. After teasing it for a
6:41:36while, he controlled the flying paper
6:41:37crane to fall. The moment the spiritual
6:41:40energy was interrupted, this thing
6:41:42immediately shrank back to its original
6:41:44size. Then came the normal routine of
6:41:46cooking, eating, and washing dishes. By
6:41:49the time everything was finished, half
6:41:50an hour had passed. Such Chongqing did
6:41:53not rest, but instead controlled the
6:41:55flying paper crane to take off. The next
6:41:57goal is to explore the lay lines, which
6:42:00I've never been to before. Along the
6:42:02way, he became more and more familiar
6:42:04with controlling the flying paper
6:42:05cranes. It no longer sways left and
6:42:07right. Even in strong winds, it remains
6:42:10as steady as a rock. As time went by,
6:42:13the surrounding scenery gradually
6:42:14changed and various pits came into view.
6:42:17This means we are approaching the range
6:42:19of Casting Peak. However, Su Chongqing
6:42:22did not go any further, but instead
6:42:24turned right. After some time, a huge
6:42:26crater appeared in the open space ahead.
6:42:28It was pitch black inside, and you
6:42:30couldn't see anything clearly.
6:42:32Occasionally, a pale yellow mist would
6:42:34drift up from the depths. As they drew
6:42:36closer, the Earth elemental energy in
6:42:38the air surged rapidly. Fortunately, Su
6:42:41Chongqing did not feel any discomfort.
6:42:44As you get closer, you can see that
6:42:46there are people stationed near the pit.
6:42:48Upon seeing Su Chongqing approaching on
6:42:50a flying paper crane, they immediately
6:42:52stepped forward to intercept him. Who is
6:42:54it? I am Su Chonqing, a wood spirit
6:42:57route, and I came here specifically to
6:42:59complete this mission. Whose mission? A
6:43:01foundation establishment stage senior
6:43:03brother named Human. Do you have any
6:43:05talismans? I have the other party's
6:43:08communication token here. The person who
6:43:10intercepted them was a tall, muscular,
6:43:12and strong man. His sharp hawk-like
6:43:15eyes-sized Su Choning up and down
6:43:17compared to the more lenient approach of
6:43:19the spirit field. The rules regarding
6:43:21lay lines are quite strict. Su Chonqing
6:43:24handed Huan's communication talisman and
6:43:26the other party infused it with
6:43:27spiritual power. After some discussion,
6:43:30it was confirmed that there were no
6:43:31problems. Moreover, they learned from
6:43:33Human how to take care of Dolian.
6:43:36Although there was no further
6:43:37obstruction, Su Chongqing was not
6:43:39allowed to enter alone. Instead, this
6:43:41person personally led the way and they
6:43:43could only walk, not use flying paper
6:43:46cranes. Su Chongqing asked puzzled,
6:43:48"Senior brother, why are the earth veins
6:43:50so strictly regulated?" "My name is Sha
6:43:53Feay." The man introduced himself, then
6:43:56continued, "Because the Earth's veins
6:43:58are very important." Su Chongqing looked
6:44:00like he understood, but didn't quite.
6:44:02Seeing this, Sha Feay explained, "There
6:44:04are spirit stone mines in the earth's
6:44:06veins. If we can freely enter and exit,
6:44:09wouldn't everyone be able to mine spirit
6:44:11stones? Therefore, disciples with earth
6:44:14elemental spiritual roots in the earth's
6:44:16veins not only have the responsibility
6:44:18of cultivation, but also of protection
6:44:20and excavation." I see. Su Chongqing
6:44:23suddenly realized. As Sha Fe led the
6:44:25way, he asked, "What is your cultivation
6:44:28level?" Su Chongqing replied, mid-stage
6:44:30chi refining. Shauna Feain nodded
6:44:33slightly. Who man's cave is on the 18th
6:44:35layer of the earth vein. It's<unk> good
6:44:37that you are in the middle stage ofQi
6:44:38refining. If you were in the early stage
6:44:40of chi refining, you would have to give
6:44:42up this mission. Why? Such Chanqing
6:44:45asked in surprise. Shan Feay said with a
6:44:47serious expression. The pressure
6:44:49increases by 10% with each layer of the
6:44:52earth's veins that goes down. If you're
6:44:54not strong enough, you simply can't
6:44:56withstand it. The two then entered the
6:44:58dark pit. Upon entering, Such Chongqing
6:45:01was surprised to find the road down
6:45:02there is not straight. Instead, it
6:45:05spirals downwards going in circles.
6:45:07Although when you're outside, it feels
6:45:09like a black hole. But once inside, they
6:45:12found that there was a bright lamp at
6:45:13regular intervals. Although it cannot
6:45:16illuminate the entire path, at least you
6:45:18can see the road beneath your feet. As
6:45:20Su Chongqing followed behind Sha Feay,
6:45:22he silently counted and seeing that they
6:45:24had already circled 18 times, he
6:45:27couldn't help but ask, "Aren't we there
6:45:28yet?" Sha Fe glanced back and said with
6:45:31a playful expression, "Fellow Daist Su,
6:45:34you may be disappointed. This pit is
6:45:36just an entrance. We haven't even
6:45:38reached the lay lines yet." Upon hearing
6:45:40this, Su Chongqing<unk>s lips twitched
6:45:42several times. Although it's a bit
6:45:44frustrating, there's not much to
6:45:46complain about. Since I've accepted this
6:45:48task, I can only try to complete it.
6:45:50After about the time it takes for an
6:45:51incense stick to burn, we finally reach
6:45:54the bottom of the pit. It looks very
6:45:56spacious here with excavated tunnels
6:45:58everywhere. There are many disciples
6:46:00with the earth's spirit route who come
6:46:02and go constantly. Strangely enough,
6:46:04these people clearly have nothing on
6:46:06them. They all look like they were
6:46:07struggling. Every step was heavy and his
6:46:10face was covered in fine sweat. It looks
6:46:12like it's carrying an invisible weight.
6:46:14It's worth noting that these people have
6:46:16yellowower skin, but it wasn't an
6:46:18unhealthy waxy yellow. Rather, it had a
6:46:21yellowish sheen. Upon arriving here,
6:46:23Shan Fe stopped leading the way and
6:46:25pointed to a passage, saying, "Go in and
6:46:28you'll reach the 18th level of the lay
6:46:30lines in about an hour. How much?" Such
6:46:33Choning<unk>s eyes widened. "An hour?"
6:46:35Sha Fe shrugged. If you had an earth
6:46:38elemental route, your resilience would
6:46:40be even stronger, and the time would be
6:46:42halfed. But although the other party
6:46:44didn't finish speaking, Su Chonqing
6:46:46understood. Clearly, only those with an
6:46:48earth elemental route are suitable for
6:46:50entering the earth veins. I never
6:46:52expected the first task to be so
6:46:54difficult. Although you can give up, you
6:46:56will have your points deducted.
6:46:58Therefore, they had no choice but to
6:46:59walk step by step towards the passage
6:47:01directly opposite. Anyway, let's give it
6:47:04a try. Shan Feay standing behind or a
6:47:07playful expression. If anyone can easily
6:47:09traverse the earth's veins, then what's
6:47:12the point of having an earth spirit
6:47:13route? Such Chongqing walked silently
6:47:16inside. The passageway was not flat, but
6:47:19rather a continuous downhill slope.
6:47:21Occasionally, you might run into one or
6:47:23two disciples with earth elemental
6:47:25roots, but they remained very silent. At
6:47:28first, Such Chongqing thought it was a
6:47:30rejection of outsiders, but as he
6:47:32continued down the path, he gradually
6:47:34realized what the problem was. The
6:47:36pressure on me is constantly increasing.
6:47:38At first, it was okay. I didn't feel too
6:47:40bad. However, as they delved deeper, the
6:47:43pressure increased. His body felt as if
6:47:45it were carrying a weight of over 1,000
6:47:47lb. He was so out of breath that he had
6:47:49no strength to speak. Within the earth's
6:47:51veins, only the earth's spirit root can
6:47:54withstand the pressure. If it were any
6:47:56other spiritual route, regardless of
6:47:58whether it was metal, wood, water, or
6:48:00fire, it would be impossible to
6:48:02withstand it. Chapter 47. transform the
6:48:05earth's sprouting lotus, but it costs
6:48:07extra. Chapter 47. Transformation of the
6:48:10earth lotus, but it costs more money.
6:48:12Faced with this pressure, Su Chongqing
6:48:14did not back down. As things stand,
6:48:17those at the mid-stage ofQi refining can
6:48:19indeed withstand it. There is pressure,
6:48:21but not too much. It hasn't reached an
6:48:23unbearable level. As I walked, a sign
6:48:26appeared ahead. The four large
6:48:28characters above read, "Earth Vein,
6:48:30level one. The line below is in smaller
6:48:32print. one floor for every 100 meters
6:48:35below. I never imagined that even after
6:48:37going so deep, we'd only be at the first
6:48:40level of the lay lines. After thinking
6:48:42it over, Su Chanqing took out the
6:48:44communication talisman from his small
6:48:46storage bag. I was planning to
6:48:47communicate with Human again. The signal
6:48:49was not very good. Several attempts
6:48:51failed. Never mind. Let's talk after I
6:48:54finished taking care of her. Such
6:48:55Chonqing put the communication talisman
6:48:58away again. He then continued down the
6:49:00passage. One more floor is added for
6:49:02every 100 m you go deeper. They soon
6:49:04arrived at the 10th level of the lay
6:49:06lines. Converted to depth, that's a full
6:49:091,000 m. This calculation doesn't start
6:49:12from the ground level, but rather after
6:49:14descending into the deep pit. That is to
6:49:16say, the actual depth is definitely more
6:49:19than 1,000 m. The immense pressure had
6:49:21already caused Su Chongqing to break out
6:49:24in a light sweat. Fortunately, he was
6:49:26not in the mid-stage chi refining. It is
6:49:28actually in the late stage ofQi
6:49:30refining. It has more spiritual energy
6:49:32to support it. Upon reaching the 10th
6:49:34level of the lay line, the view ahead
6:49:36suddenly opened up. It is no longer a
6:49:39dark passageway. Instead, it is a vast
6:49:41underground world. Such Chongqing
6:49:44continued forward and arrived at the
6:49:45plank road at the edge of the cliff. One
6:49:48step to the left and you'll fall into an
6:49:50abyss and die. Only by sticking close to
6:49:52the cold rock wall on the right can one
6:49:54ensure safety. Strangely, this
6:49:56underground world was not completely
6:49:58dark. Instead, it shimmerred with
6:50:00multicolored light. Such Choning could
6:50:03barely make out the scene in the
6:50:04distance. The undulating mineral veins
6:50:06resemble sleeping Earth dragons. Some
6:50:08are white dragons. Some are hang long.
6:50:11The portion of the light that was
6:50:12exposed was at least several hundred ft
6:50:14long. Every now and then, a wisp of
6:50:17yellow mist drifted out from the corner.
6:50:19If you listen carefully, you can hear a
6:50:21clinking sound coming from deep within.
6:50:23This is this the earth's veins. Su
6:50:26Chongqing felt a strong visual impact.
6:50:28This was completely different from what
6:50:30he had imagined the lay lines. I thought
6:50:32they were a series of mind tunnels. I
6:50:34never expected it to turn out like this.
6:50:36It took a full minute for me to recover
6:50:38from the shock. Then continue down the
6:50:40plank road. 11th floor of the Earth's
6:50:42lay lines. 15th layer of Earth's lay
6:50:44lines. 18th layer of Earth's lay lines.
6:50:47We finally arrived at our destination.
6:50:50But the pressure at this moment was
6:50:51already incredibly heavy. With each
6:50:53step, a clear footprint was left on the
6:50:55ground. Huff huff. While panting
6:50:58heavily, Su Chongqing took out the
6:51:00communication talisman again. Soon, its
6:51:02surface began to shimmer. Following the
6:51:05signs, we arrived at a rock wall. At
6:51:07first glance, there is nothing here. As
6:51:09Such Chongqing approached, it opened
6:51:11with a loud bang. Suddenly, a spacious
6:51:14interior came into view. If I'm not
6:51:16mistaken, it should be Human's cave. If
6:51:18the other person stays here everyday,
6:51:20this means that you have to endure
6:51:22tremendous pressure at all times. If it
6:51:24was someone with a different spiritual
6:51:26route, they simply couldn't withstand
6:51:27it. All I can say is that as expected of
6:51:30someone with an earth elemental route,
6:51:32they are indeed quite capable. Su
6:51:35Chongqin glanced around and found that
6:51:36the target he needed to take care of was
6:51:38on the other side of the cave. There is
6:51:40a spring there. What's bubbling up isn't
6:51:42spring water, but rather the earth's
6:51:44energy. They surged upwards and then
6:51:46spread outwards. It gradually turned
6:51:49into an earthy yellow lotus flower.
6:51:51Clearly, this is the earth emerging
6:51:53lotus. Is this considered a spiritual
6:51:55plant? Such Chongqing sat cross-legged
6:51:58with doubt, then released his own
6:51:59spiritual power. As we all know,
6:52:02different spiritual roots absorb
6:52:03different kinds of spiritual energy.
6:52:05Therefore, the spiritual energy within
6:52:07the body also possesses different
6:52:09attributes. Such Chongqing has a wood
6:52:12elemental root and uses wood elemental
6:52:14power. After being released, it emitted
6:52:16a pale blue light. After the lotus was
6:52:19injected, the original yellowish brown
6:52:21color began to fade. Gradually, it
6:52:23transformed into a blue lotus, radiating
6:52:26a dazzling spiritual light. At that
6:52:28moment, Such Chonqing made a surprising
6:52:31discovery. The aura released by the
6:52:33earth lotus has transformed from earth
6:52:35to wood. On one side is what elemental
6:52:37power. On one side is the earthy
6:52:40atmosphere. Instead of excluding each
6:52:42other, they gradually integrated.
6:52:44Gradually, it changed from its original
6:52:46gaseous state to become substantial.
6:52:48However, no matter how much would
6:52:50elemental power Sue Chongqing poured
6:52:52into it, there was no further change. It
6:52:55seems that this is the only place we can
6:52:56take care of or it may reach the current
6:52:58threshold. He then gradually reduced the
6:53:01amount of what elemental power he was
6:53:03investing. Finally, it was completely
6:53:05disconnected. However, the lotus still
6:53:07maintained its green lotus state,
6:53:09showing no signs of regressing. It seems
6:53:12to have already taken shape. It should
6:53:14be fine. Such Chan got up from the
6:53:16ground. He did not linger. He didn't
6:53:18even glance at his surroundings. They
6:53:20walked directly outside the cave. The
6:53:22moment the person emerged, the opening
6:53:24immediately closed. It was perfectly
6:53:26sealed, as if it had never been opened.
6:53:29An hour later, Su Chongqing returned to
6:53:31the bottom of the pit. Once outside, the
6:53:34heavy pressure covering me instantly
6:53:35lessened by more than half. I felt a
6:53:38huge weight lifted off my shoulders.
6:53:40Shani aircraft asked with a half smile,
6:53:42"You're out." Such Chonqing looked down
6:53:44at himself. Why haven't I turned yellow?
6:53:47Shan Fe shrugged. You haven't awakened
6:53:49your earth spirit root, so you can't
6:53:51bear the earth's energy. Su Chonqing
6:53:53suddenly realized. That explains why
6:53:55those disciples with earth elemental
6:53:57roots have yellowish skin. It turns out
6:53:59that this is because the body carries
6:54:01the earth's energy. If there's nothing
6:54:03else, you should hurry up and go up,
6:54:05Shae urged. Such Chanqing waved his hand
6:54:08and said, "No rush." He took out Huan's
6:54:11communication talisman again. Infuse a
6:54:14wisp of spiritual energy. Sure enough,
6:54:16the signal wasn't affected here. Hello,
6:54:19senior brother. Who? I am Sue Chonqing.
6:54:21How is the situation? I have finished
6:54:23taking care of the ground lotus. So
6:54:26fast. But but what you need to pay more.
6:54:29Such Chongqing is not the kind of person
6:54:31who would tolerate being taken advantage
6:54:33of. From the spiritual field to the
6:54:35earth veins, then up and down each time
6:54:38it takes two shirt or 4 hours. If it's
6:54:41just 10 points per day, reward one day
6:54:44plus 10 lowgrade spirit stones. What's
6:54:46the difference between that and working
6:54:48yourself to death like an ox or a horse?
6:54:51I can pay more. Human was not surprised
6:54:53at all and didn't even care. In its
6:54:55gaseous state, the Earth emerging lotus
6:54:58is not a spiritual plant at all. It will
6:55:00only materialize after being infused
6:55:02with spiritual energy of different
6:55:04attributes. It will transform into
6:55:06various forms such as blue lotus, fire
6:55:09lotus, and water lotus. The price of a
6:55:11single plant is now 50 mid-grade spirit
6:55:14stones converted to low-grade spirit
6:55:16stones. That's a full 5,000. But that's
6:55:19not all. It's also one of the main
6:55:21ingredients for foundation building
6:55:22pills. If it is made into a pill, the
6:55:25price will increase five-fold. One of
6:55:27them costs 250 mid-grade spirit stones.
6:55:30Therefore, they are not afraid of the
6:55:31other party raising the price since they
6:55:33can still make a profit. Of course,
6:55:35cultivating this earth lotus is not
6:55:37easy. It takes 3 years just to take
6:55:39shape and it needs to be irrigated
6:55:41almost every day with its own earth
6:55:43elemental power. It can only transform
6:55:46when it turns into a lotus flower in its
6:55:48gaseous state. However, Su
6:55:50Chongqing<unk>s next words completely
6:55:52stunned him. 100 points per day. Reward,
6:55:55one day salary plus one mid-grade spirit
6:55:57stone. Chapter 48, Han Su comes
6:56:00knocking. Earth guiding technique
6:56:02creates a nest. Chapter 48, Han Sue came
6:56:05to the door, and the earth guiding
6:56:06technique could create a nest that
6:56:08yielded one mid-grade spirit stone per
6:56:10day. So, 7 days would yield seven. for
6:56:13the earth lotus which can sell for 50
6:56:15mid-grade spirit stones. It only
6:56:17accounts for seventh. Logically
6:56:19speaking, this compensation is not
6:56:21expensive. But who man was a little
6:56:23unhappy? Why would a mere chi refining
6:56:25stage spiritual farmer dare to ask for
6:56:27such a high reward? Therefore, faced
6:56:30with Su Chongqing<unk>s exorbitant
6:56:32demands, he did not answer, but chose to
6:56:34remain silent. Let's see who gives up
6:56:36first. Su Chongqing wasn't in a hurry
6:56:39when he saw that the other party
6:56:40remained silent. As long as I haven't
6:56:42given up, the mission is still in
6:56:44effect. At that point, the other party
6:56:46will only have two choices left. One,
6:56:49the cooperation will be terminated after
6:56:51compensation is paid. Two, reissue the
6:56:54task. Both the first and second methods
6:56:56will waste time and resources.
6:56:58Therefore, it all comes down to who
6:57:00can't hold on any longer. Next, Su
6:57:02Chongqing planned to leave the pit. But
6:57:04then I thought about it again. Since
6:57:06you're already here, why not go and see
6:57:08Han Su? After all, there was a contract
6:57:10between the two of them. Send 50 gene of
6:57:13second grade Ling rice for the summer in
6:57:15advance and then arrange a time to
6:57:17loosen the soil in the autumn. Su
6:57:19Chongqing immediately took out Han
6:57:21Su<unk>s communication talisman and
6:57:22tried to communicate. The signal is bad
6:57:25and the other party can't receive it.
6:57:27This situation indicates that the person
6:57:29is located within the earth's veins.
6:57:31Seeing that the man was still lingering,
6:57:33Sha Fe raised an eyebrow and asked,
6:57:35"What are you still doawling about?" Su
6:57:38Chongqing put down the communication
6:57:39talisman and said, "I still need to find
6:57:42someone." Who? Shan Fe pressed. Su
6:57:45Chongqing said the name. Han Su. Han Su.
6:57:48Shan Fe had never heard of this name
6:57:49before. Su Chongqing gave a brief
6:57:52introduction. Here is a formal disciple
6:57:54of yours who is in theQi refining stage.
6:57:56Shan Feay frowned and walked to the
6:57:58other side. Arriving at what looked like
6:58:00a registration desk. He instructed a
6:58:02female disciple with an earth elemental
6:58:04rooe inside. see if there's a formal
6:58:07disciple named Han Su. Soon, the female
6:58:10disciple with the earth elemental root
6:58:12nodded. Indeed, Sha Fe asked, "Where are
6:58:15they?" The female disciple with the
6:58:17earth elemental root glanced at the
6:58:19form. He didn't finish his mining task
6:58:21today, so he's still in the lay lines.
6:58:24Su Chongqing stepped forward and asked,
6:58:26"When are you coming up?" Upon hearing
6:58:28this, the female disciple with the earth
6:58:30elemental root spread her hands and
6:58:32said, "Whenever it's finished, then come
6:58:34up." Anyway, the Earth Spirit Route can
6:58:37withstand pressure. Sometimes I can stay
6:58:39for several hours without any problem.
6:58:41You generally won't be able to log in if
6:58:43you don't complete the mining tasks. Sha
6:58:45Fe said in a deep voice. Those who are
6:58:47not of the Earth Spirit route are not
6:58:49allowed to go down into the mine tunnel.
6:58:52You can only wait here. Su Chongqing
6:58:54shook his head. Never mind. He didn't
6:58:56want to stay in this dark and gloomy
6:58:58place any longer. I still have to go
6:59:00home and cook for the yellow dog and
6:59:01guinea foul. Since we can't meet this
6:59:04time, let's<unk> do it next time. Come
6:59:05on, I'll take you up, Shan Feay called
6:59:08out. The two immediately began to return
6:59:10along the same route. It was evening.
6:59:12Han Su, whose face was salow, and
6:59:15several disciples with earth elemental
6:59:17roots came up from the mine tunnel. They
6:59:19all looked exhausted, their eyes filled
6:59:21with numbness. Mining is too tiring.
6:59:24Yes, loosening the soil is easier. But
6:59:27how can we chi refining stage
6:59:28cultivators compete with foundation
6:59:30establishment stage cultivators? Han Su,
6:59:33didn't you sign contracts with several
6:59:34Lingome? Yeah. Can you share one or two
6:59:37with us? Come on. Although this kid has
6:59:39partnered with several spirit farmers.
6:59:41The proportions are all too low. The
6:59:44proportions were all right compared to
6:59:45that linen guy, but the result was haha.
6:59:49The voices of the people around me were
6:59:50somewhat jarring. Han Su opened his
6:59:52mouth, but when the words reached his
6:59:54lips, he was powerless to refute them.
6:59:56If I had any better judgment, I wouldn't
6:59:59be working myself to the bone every day.
7:00:01At this moment, a female disciple with
7:00:03an earth elemental root asked, "Are you
7:00:05Han Su?" "Yes, it's me." Han Su looked
7:00:08at the other person with some surprise,
7:00:10wondering if he liked her. However, the
7:00:12female disciple with the earth elemental
7:00:14root said, "Someone came looking for you
7:00:17during the day." "Who is it?" Hanu
7:00:19asked, both surprised and somewhat
7:00:21disappointed. The female disciple with
7:00:23the earth elemental root recalled. She
7:00:25was tall and thin, wearing a bamboo hat,
7:00:28and seemed to be a spirit farmer.
7:00:30Lingome. A name instantly popped in a
7:00:32Hans Su<unk>s mind. And he blurted out,
7:00:34"Senior brother Sue, yes, summer is
7:00:37over. Senior brother Sue must have
7:00:39already harvested the spirit rice. Their
7:00:41sudden visit must be related to those 50
7:00:43gene of second grade spiritual rice.
7:00:46Although there aren't many, they are at
7:00:47least the most stable ones at this
7:00:50moment. Those who had previously mocked
7:00:51Han Su all revealed envious eyes. At
7:00:54least they have the Lingong cooperative.
7:00:56I can get a little bit of spirit rice
7:00:58every quarter. Even a small amount is
7:01:00better than the mining in the dark and
7:01:02sunless lay lines. The next morning,
7:01:05Such Chongqing was already busy as soon
7:01:07as the sun rose. He planned to dry the
7:01:09straw and then make a nest for the
7:01:10guinea fowl. The temperature will drop
7:01:12day by day, and the days will get colder
7:01:15and colder. They can no longer be
7:01:16allowed to graze freely. Woof! Woof! The
7:01:19yellow dog suddenly barked as I was
7:01:21working. Su Choning looked to his right
7:01:23and noticed someone approaching. "Senior
7:01:25brother Su." The newcomer waved. Su
7:01:28Chongqing recognized the voice
7:01:29immediately and exclaimed, "Han Su."
7:01:32Soon, Han Su came to him, his face full
7:01:35of excitement. He couldn't sleep all
7:01:37night. They rushed over from the lay
7:01:39lines before dawn. Although 50 caddies
7:01:41of second grade spiritual rice is not
7:01:43something that needs to be taken so
7:01:45seriously, but I'm just happy. Everyone
7:01:47says that Han Su has a poor eye for
7:01:49people. Even I think so. But sometimes
7:01:52even a blind cat can catch a dead mouse.
7:01:54This has led to people around them no
7:01:56longer daring to laugh at him. Such
7:01:58Chongqing didn't waste any words and
7:02:00took out 50 caddies of second grade
7:02:02spirit rice from his small storage bag.
7:02:04Han Su breathed a sigh of relief when he
7:02:06saw that it was still second grade
7:02:08spirit rice. He then took out the
7:02:10contract talisman from last time and
7:02:11tore it to pieces in front of the two of
7:02:13them. Their collaboration during the
7:02:15summer has come to an end. Such
7:02:17Chongqing stopped what he was doing,
7:02:19went to the kitchen to cut half a
7:02:20watermelon for Han Su, and then
7:02:22continued to move the remaining straw.
7:02:24Han Su, who was holding half a
7:02:26watermelon, didn't eat it when he saw
7:02:28this. Instead, he put it aside and
7:02:30joined in the work, saying, "Senior
7:02:33brother, let me help you." Such
7:02:35Chongqing did not refuse. Two people can
7:02:37work faster. Before long, the open space
7:02:40on the other side of the house was piled
7:02:42with straw. After drying for a few days,
7:02:44you can harvest a large amount of hay.
7:02:46Han Su clapped the grass clippings off
7:02:48his hands and asked curiously, "Senior
7:02:50brother, what are you doing?" Su
7:02:52Chongqing laughed and said, "I plan to
7:02:55build a chicken coupe for the guinea
7:02:56foul." Han Su asked thoughtfully, "Do we
7:02:59need to build an earthn shelter to
7:03:00protect us from the wind and rain?" Su
7:03:03Chongqing was taken aback for a moment,
7:03:05then nodded. You're right. It's<unk>
7:03:07definitely necessary. Han Su immediately
7:03:09patted his chest and said, "Junior
7:03:12Brothers, EarthGuiding technique has
7:03:14reached the second level and he can
7:03:16control the concentration of earth
7:03:17energy and change the shape of the
7:03:19soil." Then the two confirmed their
7:03:21positions. Immediately afterwards, Hanu
7:03:24activated the earth guidance technique,
7:03:26second level, at a speed visible to the
7:03:28naked eye. It created two burrows in the
7:03:31ground. Why are there two? One is for
7:03:33the guinea fowl. The other one is for
7:03:35the yellow dog. This thing is very
7:03:37sturdy. It won't deform even if you kick
7:03:39it. Under normal circumstances, it
7:03:41should last for several years without
7:03:43any problems. Such Chonqing specifically
7:03:45put a yellow dog and a guinea fowl in to
7:03:48test it out. The guinea foul are the
7:03:50perfect size with plenty of interior
7:03:52space. After all, they are already
7:03:54adults and will not grow up anymore. But
7:03:57a yellow dog won't do. It's a bit too
7:03:59small. Moreover, it is still in its
7:04:01growth stage and will continue to grow.
7:04:03Therefore, even if it can be
7:04:05accommodated now, it will definitely
7:04:06have to be changed in the future. This
7:04:08was no challenge for Han Su at all.
7:04:10Activate the Earth Pole technique again
7:04:12to double the size of the doghouse. This
7:04:15time, let alone one adult yellow dog.
7:04:17Even two wouldn't be a problem. Chapter
7:04:2049. Green Lotus gives birth to lotus
7:04:22seeds. Mutant rice ripens. Chapter 49.
7:04:25Lotus seeds born from green lotus.
7:04:27Mutant rice ripens. The next day
7:04:29arrived. On the other side, whom Manuela
7:04:32and the others grew increasingly
7:04:33anxious. Once the elemental power is
7:04:36infused, it cannot be interrupted. I
7:04:38thought Su Chongqing would back down,
7:04:40but he never said another word. In the
7:04:42end, Human had no choice but to
7:04:44compromise. The remuneration has been
7:04:46revised. We had to change 10 points per
7:04:49day to 100 points per day. Then the
7:04:52reward for spirit stones was changed
7:04:53from one day's reward plus 10 lowgrade
7:04:56spirit stones to one day's reward plus
7:04:59one mid-grade spirit stone. He has made
7:05:01up his mind. Once the collaboration
7:05:03ends, I will never ask this Ling Nong
7:05:05for help again. After receiving
7:05:07confirmation from the other party, the
7:05:09first thing Su Chongqing did was head to
7:05:11the Lingian core management office.
7:05:13First report the changes to the task to
7:05:15the staff inside. After confirming that
7:05:18everything was all right, he rode the
7:05:20flying paper crane towards the Earth
7:05:21vein. With the experience from last
7:05:24time, we need to be faster and more
7:05:26efficient this time. Less than an hour
7:05:27later, they arrived at Human's cave on
7:05:30the 18th level of the Earth's veins
7:05:32again. Compared to yesterday, the color
7:05:34of the lotus has faded considerably.
7:05:36However, it still retains the form of
7:05:38the wood attribute Azure Lotus. Such
7:05:41Chongqing wasted no time and decisively
7:05:43sat down cross-legged. The wood
7:05:45elemental power within his body was
7:05:47slowly poured into it. Instantly, the
7:05:49previously faded color of the Earth
7:05:51lotus brightened up again. It rotates
7:05:54silently in a clockwise direction. The
7:05:56speed is not fast, about 10 seconds per
7:05:59lap. With each rotation, the lotus
7:06:01leaves and lotus flowers become clearer.
7:06:04This time, it felt a bit bigger than
7:06:06yesterday, as if it was growing. And so,
7:06:08the days passed one by one. Such Chan
7:06:11would enter the earth's veins every day
7:06:13and then irrigate the earth emerging
7:06:14lotus. At first, Shani aircraft would
7:06:17follow, but eventually they stopped
7:06:19paying any attention to it altogether
7:06:21until the seventh day, which was the
7:06:23last time the irrigation was carried
7:06:25out. Such Chonqing activated the
7:06:27evergreen technique. The wood attribute
7:06:29spiritual power within his body was
7:06:31continuously poured into the lotus,
7:06:33which resembled a physical entity. As it
7:06:36rotates clockwise, it releases a faint
7:06:38fragrance. After seven consecutive days
7:06:41of irrigation, it has completely
7:06:43transformed from a gaseous state into a
7:06:45solid state. Just as the final moment
7:06:47was ending, Su Chongqing<unk>s right
7:06:49hand trembled. The spirit seal was
7:06:51originally created through the practice
7:06:52of the with spirit entanglement
7:06:54technique. It appears automatically even
7:06:57when not activated. The character
7:06:59emitted a bluish light. For some reason,
7:07:01it resonated with the blue lotus in
7:07:03front of it. The light flashed
7:07:05frequently. Then Su Chongqing<unk>s
7:07:07spiritual energy began to be
7:07:09continuously depleted. One was lost in
7:07:11just a few breaths. If one has not
7:07:13reached the late stage of chi refining,
7:07:15one will have five spiritual energies
7:07:17within their body. Moreover, once the
7:07:20evergreen technique is cultivated to the
7:07:22fifth level, the recovery speed
7:07:24increases. It simply cannot support this
7:07:26kind of loss as the spiritual energy
7:07:28within his body was absorbed one after
7:07:31another by the azure lotus when only one
7:07:33line remained. Finally, the absorption
7:07:36came to an abrupt end. At the same time,
7:07:38the lotus flower stamon trembled
7:07:40slightly and a lotus seed pod actually
7:07:42grew out. Then, with a pop, a green
7:07:45lotus seed fell out. It is oval in shape
7:07:47with pointed ends. The surface has very
7:07:50fine textures. Despite its small size,
7:07:52it contains an extremely rich wood
7:07:54elemental energy. The wood spirit seal
7:07:56flashed and absorbed the cyan lotus
7:07:59seed. "What's going on?" Su Chongqing
7:08:01asked in astonishment. who man never
7:08:03said there would be such a change. Or
7:08:05was this something unexpected? A thought
7:08:07struck him. The blue lotus seed stored
7:08:09in the spiritual seal appeared in the
7:08:11palm of the hand. After a moment of
7:08:13intuition, information surfaced,
7:08:16abundant spiritual energy, premium seeds
7:08:19to be matured. Su Chongqing raised an
7:08:21eyebrow. He saw the word top quality on
7:08:24the seed for the first time. This means
7:08:26that this thing is not simple. Looking
7:08:28at Chinglan again, there wasn't much
7:08:29change overall. After a lotus seed fell
7:08:32out of the lotus pod, it turned into gas
7:08:34and dissipated. The stammans are still
7:08:37there, only smaller than before. It
7:08:39appears that the blue lotus is still the
7:08:41same blue lotus. After some thought, Su
7:08:43Chongqing stored the lotus seed back in
7:08:45the wood spirit seal. Then he turned and
7:08:48walked out of the cave. If man hadn't
7:08:50asked, he would never have voluntarily
7:08:52handed it over. After all, this thing
7:08:54looks extremely rare and is probably
7:08:56very valuable. Then they left the lay
7:08:58lines and the pits. Returned to the
7:09:00spirit field as quickly as possible.
7:09:03They only breathed a sigh of relief when
7:09:04they saw their home, the yellow dog and
7:09:07the guinea fowl. I completely relaxed.
7:09:09As he drew closer, Such Chonqing
7:09:11suddenly caught a whiff of fragrance.
7:09:13The closer you get, the stronger the
7:09:15flavor. It tastes similar to Lingi wine,
7:09:18but it's not intoxicating. Could it be?
7:09:20Such Chonqing was startled and hurriedly
7:09:23flew towards the Stone Mountain. Once
7:09:25inside, they were immediately shocked by
7:09:27what they saw. The mutated rice has
7:09:29grown to 2 m tall. It looked as if it
7:09:31had been poured with gold from top to
7:09:33bottom, radiating a dazzling light. Each
7:09:36grain of rice on the rice stock is as
7:09:38plump and full as a fruit. Aroma is what
7:09:40it, or rather what they emit. Such Chan
7:09:43has been taking care of the earth lotus
7:09:45these past few days, so he hasn't paid
7:09:47much attention to the mutated spirit
7:09:48rice. Unexpectedly, it matured quietly
7:09:51at this time. Thankfully, no one was
7:09:53around. Otherwise, we would definitely
7:09:55have been exposed. Immediately, he
7:09:57activated the evergreen technique to
7:09:59check the specific situation. Mutant
7:10:01spirit rice, mature, no damage, abundant
7:10:05spiritual energy. Today's best, many
7:10:08children, many blessings. 0.25 gene,
7:10:11approximately 0.325
7:10:14caddies. The entry exists, and there are
7:10:16several more of them. It is fully
7:10:18mature. Even the quality is topnotch at
7:10:21this moment. Su Chongqing<unk>s
7:10:22breathing became heavy. I thought that
7:10:24the unexpected discovery of a lotus seed
7:10:26was just good luck. Unexpectedly, good
7:10:29luck continued to come. The long-
7:10:31awaited mutated spirit rice has finally
7:10:33ripened today. He took out a sickle from
7:10:35his small storage bag, intending to
7:10:37harvest, but suddenly stopped. Attention
7:10:40then turned back to the term many
7:10:42children, many blessings. If I
7:10:44understand correctly, the saying many
7:10:46children, many blessings should probably
7:10:48include a distinction between mother and
7:10:50child. If the rice on the rice ear is
7:10:52called Z, then isn't this golden mutated
7:10:55spirit rice the mother? Thinking of
7:10:57this, Su Chonqing stretched out his
7:10:59sickle but did not harvest the mutated
7:11:02spirit rice. Instead, they cut down the
7:11:04heavy ears of rice. After careful
7:11:06counting, it was found that the nine
7:11:08rice ears contained exactly 999 seeds.
7:11:12Then he took out an equal amount of
7:11:14second grade spirit rice for comparison.
7:11:16The mutated rice was found to be larger,
7:11:18heavier, and fuller. the same quantity.
7:11:21The left hand holds second grade spirit
7:11:23rice. The right hand contains mutated
7:11:25spirit rice. I could clearly feel that
7:11:28my right hand was heavier. After the
7:11:30rice ears were cut off, the light on
7:11:32this mutated spirit rice plant dimmed.
7:11:34Although it is still golden yellow, it
7:11:36is not glaring. Even the fragrance in
7:11:38the air gradually dissipated. How about
7:11:41try a little? Feeling the amazing
7:11:43spiritual energy within the mutated
7:11:45spirit rice, Su Chongqing swallowed. He
7:11:48suppressed his impulse and first watered
7:11:50the mutated spirit rice with spring
7:11:52water. Although I don't know if it will
7:11:53ripen a second time, I'm not in a hurry
7:11:56to harvest it. After all, it's better to
7:11:58be safe than sorry. After everything was
7:12:00settled, he rushed to the kitchen. Of
7:12:02course, there aren't many mutated spirit
7:12:04rice plants to begin with. Therefore,
7:12:07only a small portion was mixed into the
7:12:09second grade spirit rice. Before long,
7:12:11the fragrant rice was served. Most of
7:12:13them are second grade spirit rice. It is
7:12:16as white as snow without a single
7:12:18impurity. The mutated spirit rice is
7:12:20very obvious like golden grains
7:12:22scattered among it. The rich aroma even
7:12:25attracted yellow dogs and guinea fowl.
7:12:27They stayed nearby, their eyes fixed on
7:12:30the fragrant rice. The yellow dog was
7:12:32drooling profusely from between its
7:12:34teeth. Don't rush. Let me try it first.
7:12:37Such choning picked up his chopsticks,
7:12:39took a small amount, and put it in his
7:12:41mouth. The second grade Lingi rice is
7:12:43chewy and bouncy. The mutated spirit
7:12:45rice is even more potent. The moment you
7:12:48chew, your mouth waters. The rich aroma
7:12:51mixed with a large amount of spiritual
7:12:53energy was swallowed into the stomach.
7:12:56Instantly, Su Chanching<unk>s previously
7:12:58depleted spiritual energy was rapidly
7:13:00restored. And then you can't stop
7:13:02eating. You just keep eating more and
7:13:03more. The spiritual energy continued to
7:13:06grow, eventually increasing from five
7:13:08waves to six in an instant. Chapter 50.
7:13:11News of the dragon fish seedling mutant
7:13:13rice. Chapter 50. News about the dragon
7:13:16fish. The seedlings of mutated rice and
7:13:18mutated spirit rice regardless of their
7:13:21spiritual energy content or the taste.
7:13:23Both are superior to the second grade
7:13:25spirit rice grown in a second grade
7:13:27spirit field. Of course, Such Chaning
7:13:30wasn't selfish enough to eat it all by
7:13:31himself. Later, some was shared with the
7:13:34yellow dog and a guinea foul. The two
7:13:36little ones were eating and both of them
7:13:38had expressions of enjoyment on their
7:13:39faces. Its entire body even emitted the
7:13:42unique rich aroma of the mutated spirit
7:13:45rice. Even the hair became softer. Su
7:13:48Chongqing said with a hint of regret.
7:13:50It's a pity there isn't enough to eat.
7:13:52There are now 900 pills left and they
7:13:55cannot be consumed anymore. He plans to
7:13:57cultivate the mutated rice seedlings
7:13:59into mutated seedlings and replant them
7:14:01in the black soil. Let's see if it can
7:14:03grow and mature. If successful, it means
7:14:06that we can eat a continuous supply of
7:14:08mutated rice in the future. In this way,
7:14:10the speed of improvement in cultivation
7:14:12level will be greatly increased. He
7:14:14should be able to reach theqi refining
7:14:16perfection stage in less than a year or
7:14:19even break through to the foundation
7:14:20establishment stage. After all, there
7:14:23will be another wave of spiritual energy
7:14:25in spring. In the days that followed, Su
7:14:27Chongqing kept a close eye on the
7:14:29mutated spiritual rice. Although
7:14:31harvesting the rice stocks makes it lose
7:14:33its luster, but apart from that, there
7:14:35are no other problems. Mutant spirit
7:14:37rice mature no damage abundant spiritual
7:14:41energy today's best many children many
7:14:44blessings after watering the springs
7:14:46several more times Sue Chongqing left
7:14:49the cave then riding on a paper crane it
7:14:52flew towards the core management office
7:14:54with the start of autumn approaching the
7:14:56third quarter planting season is about
7:14:58to begin although other seeds are still
7:15:00available the spirit seedling must be
7:15:02obtained again because it wasn't the
7:15:04first time the whole process went very
7:15:06smoothly. Such Chanqing specifically
7:15:08checked the points. I previously
7:15:10obtained 700 by submitting Lingmi.
7:15:12Later, I helped Human cultivate the
7:15:14Earth Lotus and obtained 700. Together,
7:15:17they totaled over 1,400 points,
7:15:20equivalent to half a highle spell.
7:15:22Indeed, the best way to increase points
7:15:24is to complete tasks. But good
7:15:26assignments are like finding a lucky
7:15:28break. They're rare and hard to come by.
7:15:30Tasks similar to cultivating Euphoria
7:15:33Milli are extremely rare. Su Chongqing
7:15:36then left the core management office.
7:15:38Everything proceeded as planned. Have
7:15:40Han Su come over and loosen the soil. He
7:15:42made an appointment with Binger for the
7:15:44time when it would rain. Hubuay brought
7:15:46over the spirit beasts excrement. The
7:15:48first two are fine. No problems.
7:15:51Unfortunately, the third one who has a
7:15:54problem. Su Chonqing looked at the
7:15:56unfamiliar young man leading a camel and
7:15:58couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"
7:16:00"My name is Sunban." The unfamiliar
7:16:03young man explained with a dry laugh.
7:16:05Because senior brother who has some
7:16:06business to attend to, he asked me to
7:16:08deliver the excrement of the
7:16:10hundred-year-old spirit beast to you
7:16:12temporarily. Su Chonqing pressed, "What
7:16:14happened to him?" Sunban quickly said,
7:16:16"Senior brother who is injured." Upon
7:16:19hearing this, Su Chongqing thought of
7:16:21Xiao Zi and the black dragon pool. Then
7:16:24he had Sunban unload the excrement of
7:16:26the hundred-year-old spirit beast.
7:16:28Before leaving, the other party gave him
7:16:30a plump and juicy watermelon as a
7:16:32reward. He then took out a communication
7:16:34talisman from his small storage bag and
7:16:36infused it with spiritual power. Who is
7:16:39it? I uh fellow Daist Su, I heard you
7:16:42were injured. It seems you've already
7:16:44met Sunban. Is it related to Xiao Xiua?
7:16:47It has nothing to do with senior brother
7:16:49Xiao. What's the meaning? Next, Hubu
7:16:52will provide a detailed explanation. Su
7:16:54Chanqing finally realized what had
7:16:56happened to this guy. After the two
7:16:58separated last time, Hubuga and Ziao
7:17:01Xiwa soon headed to Black Dragon Pool. I
7:17:03want to see if I can catch a dragon fish
7:17:05with Lingi Wine. Unexpectedly, Black
7:17:07Dragon Pool contained not only dragon
7:17:09fish, but also fish demons. While
7:17:12fishing, I was suddenly attacked and
7:17:14pulled into the water. Fortunately, Ziao
7:17:16Zua has a water elemental route and has
7:17:19reached the foundation establishment
7:17:20stage. They successfully rescued Hubuay
7:17:23before he was eaten by the fish demon.
7:17:25The two dared not stay any longer and
7:17:28immediately ran away. However, Hubuay
7:17:30injured his arm as a result and is
7:17:32temporarily unable to go out. I see. Su
7:17:35Chonqing suddenly realized. Hubuay said
7:17:38in a low voice, "Fellow Dowist Su, your
7:17:41spirit rice wine is indeed effective."
7:17:43"Oh," Su Chonqing raised an eyebrow upon
7:17:46hearing this. Hubui said seriously.
7:17:49After I was dragged into the water by
7:17:50the fish demon, I happened to see a
7:17:52dragon fish swimming around where the
7:17:54spirit rice wine was being splashed. Su
7:17:57Chongqing frowned and said, "Unless it
7:17:59bites, it can't prove it's useful."
7:18:02Hubui immediately said, "No, no, I think
7:18:06the spirit rice wine is useful, but it's
7:18:08probably because the quality of the
7:18:09spirit rice isn't high enough, so it's
7:18:12not attractive enough." Quality, huh? Su
7:18:14Chongqing thought of the mutated spirit
7:18:16rice in his hand. Could it be that
7:18:18ordinary spirit rice wine while able to
7:18:21attract dragon fish won't make them bite
7:18:23the hook? If it were replaced with grade
7:18:25three spirit rice wine or mutated spirit
7:18:28rice wine, according to Hubu, they might
7:18:30actually take the bait. Aas are
7:18:33extremely expensive because they possess
7:18:35a rare monstrous dragon bloodline. The
7:18:38price of any one of them is over a
7:18:39thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
7:18:42Because of its extremely delicious
7:18:43taste, it is loved by many people. At
7:18:46this moment, Hubuay said with great
7:18:48regret, "It's a pity that I didn't
7:18:50succeed this time. Otherwise, I could
7:18:52have become a core disciple and wouldn't
7:18:54have had to participate in the damn
7:18:56formal disciple competition." Such
7:18:58Chonqing smiled upon hearing this. He
7:19:00himself had no intention of
7:19:02participating in the formal disciple
7:19:04competition, even if you have the
7:19:05ability, even if one's level of
7:19:07attainment is high enough. But I wasn't
7:19:09interested. Instead of wasting time, it
7:19:12would be better to plant more spiritual
7:19:13rice. The two then chatted briefly for a
7:19:16while. Hubuay will need at least 10 days
7:19:18to half a month to recover from this
7:19:20injury. We should meet again in winter.
7:19:22Such Chongqing felt that as long as
7:19:24everyone was safe, that was all that
7:19:26mattered. Hubui was one of my few
7:19:28friends. If something really happens, or
7:19:30even if someone dies, the lack of a
7:19:32supply of spirit beast excrement is only
7:19:35a secondary issue. The key issue is that
7:19:37there will be no one to drink and chat
7:19:39with in the future. Time flies. It was a
7:19:42rainy day when Binger arrived. Not long
7:19:44after, she arrived as promised. He
7:19:46seemed to be in a good mood today with a
7:19:48smile on his face the whole time. Such
7:19:50Chonqing couldn't help but ask, "Is
7:19:52something making you happy?" Binger
7:19:55blinked, "My sister is back from the
7:19:56eastern region, and she brought back a
7:19:58lot of local specialties. The eastern
7:20:01regions?" Su Chonqing quickly realized
7:20:04the great U dynasty. Binger nodded then
7:20:07took something out of a pink sache like
7:20:09storage bag. This is the most popular
7:20:11dessert in the great Yu dynasty right
7:20:12now. Peach blossom pastry. Try it. Such
7:20:15Chan took it and examined it carefully.
7:20:18A small box containing a shortbread. The
7:20:20color is pinkish. It has a shape similar
7:20:23to a peach blossom. It has a faint
7:20:25subtle peach blossom scent. He picked it
7:20:27up, put it in his mouth, and then bit
7:20:29off a third of it. It has a very crispy
7:20:31texture. It tastes a little sweet. When
7:20:34you chew it, a lot of tiny crumbs will
7:20:36fall out. Overall, it's all right, but
7:20:38nothing particularly amazing. It's
7:20:40starting to rain. Binger wanted to
7:20:42finish quickly so she could go back and
7:20:44chat with her sister. Soon, the lesser
7:20:46cloud rain technique began to operate. A
7:20:49wisp of slightly blackish water vapor
7:20:51condensed above the spirit field. It
7:20:53resembles mist, but is not mist. It
7:20:55resembles cloud, but is not cloud. Not
7:20:58long after, the sound of rain pattering
7:21:00down began. Seeing this, Su Chonqing
7:21:03hurriedly put away the remaining half of
7:21:05the peach blossom pastry and then took
7:21:07out several buckets from his small
7:21:08storage bag. Seeing this, Binger asked
7:21:11in confusion, "What are you doing?" Su
7:21:13Chongqing gave an awkward smile. I'll
7:21:15get some spiritual water. Binger
7:21:18suddenly realized and then warned, "Then
7:21:20you have to be careful. The spiritual
7:21:22energy will evaporate in a few days."
7:21:24Okay. Su Chan wrote it down. It didn't
7:21:27take long for several buckets to be
7:21:29filled. After Binger left, he ran
7:21:31towards Stone Mountain without stopping,
7:21:33but it's not for irrigating the mutated
7:21:35spirit rice. Instead, it's about raising
7:21:38seedlings. There are three steps in
7:21:40total. Soaking seeds. Soak the rice
7:21:42seeds in water. Germination. Place the
7:21:45soaked rice seeds in a warm and humid
7:21:47environment. Seedling. After the rice
7:21:49seeds germinate, they are placed in
7:21:51nutrient-rich soil. The entire process
7:21:54takes about 3 to 7 days, and the mutated
7:21:56rice seed may then become a mutated rice
7:21:59seedling. Chapter 51. Nearly 10,000
7:22:02caddies of spirit rice. Another new year
7:22:04in a flash. Chapter 51. Nearly 10,000
7:22:07caddies of spirit rice and another new
7:22:10year has passed in the blink of an eye
7:22:11after being soaked in spirit ring. The
7:22:14mutated rice variety continuously
7:22:16absorbs water and swells. 7 days later,
7:22:19fresh shoots indeed sprouted. Because it
7:22:21was an experiment, Su Chonqing only took
7:22:24out 100 pills. The success rate was very
7:22:26high with 95 seeds sprouting new shoots.
7:22:29The other five grains expanded but did
7:22:32not change at all. Next, he planted all
7:22:3495 seeds that had sprouted into the
7:22:36black soil, but it's not a second grade
7:22:38spirit field outside. It was at the foot
7:22:41of the Rocky Mountain. The entire theme
7:22:43revolves around mutated spirit rice like
7:22:45the moon surrounded by stars. What
7:22:48followed was a long wait. Time passed
7:22:50day by day. Autumn goes and winter
7:22:52comes. The third quarter harvest season
7:22:54is fast approaching. Su Chongqing stood
7:22:57on the edge of the field. Before me lay
7:22:59the golden glistening rice. Mature
7:23:02abundant spiritual energy. No loss.
7:23:04Second grade spirit rice. Today's best
7:23:07yield for thousand gene. Production has
7:23:10remained relatively stable since the
7:23:12summer. Even if the spirit beasts
7:23:14excrement were replaced with 500 years
7:23:16worth, the little cloud rain technique
7:23:18was used more than five times. Actually,
7:23:20it doesn't have much effect. This is the
7:23:22current limit for a second grade spirit
7:23:24field. Without hesitation, Su Chongqing
7:23:27decisively picked up a sickle and began
7:23:29harvesting. Harvesting one supreme
7:23:31spirit rice plant increases lifespan by
7:23:346 days. Harvesting one highquality sweet
7:23:36potato increases its lifespan by 3 days.
7:23:40Harvesting one premium chili pepper
7:23:42plant adds 3 days to its lifespan. After
7:23:45a lot of hard work, the second great
7:23:47spirit field in front of us has been
7:23:48harvested. Subtract 150 gene from
7:23:51Hubuga. Subtract 50 gene of Han Su.
7:23:55Subtract 800 gene from Leing's weight
7:23:58and the 1,500 gene 750 caddies handed
7:24:02over. Currently, Su Chongqing possesses
7:24:043,500 gene of grade two spirit rice.
7:24:08This harvest yielded a total of 10,345
7:24:11days of lifespan. The total lifespan
7:24:14reaches 79,881
7:24:16days, which is 218 years. It
7:24:19successfully broke the previous 200-year
7:24:22record and set a new high. Such Chonqing
7:24:24washed a sweet potato covered in black
7:24:26soil with water, then popped it into his
7:24:28mouth and took a bite. His eyes lit up
7:24:31immediately. It's so sweet. The potato
7:24:33flesh is crisp and tender. The juice is
7:24:36sweet. It truly lives up to its
7:24:38reputation as a highquality sweet
7:24:39potato. Then he walked briskly toward
7:24:42the Rocky Mountain. As soon as you get
7:24:44close, you can smell a faint fragrance
7:24:46in the air. This is the unique flavor of
7:24:48the mutated spirit rice, which is easy
7:24:51to identify. Such Chongqing entered the
7:24:53cave and soon arrived in front of the
7:24:55mutated spirit rice. It has become
7:24:58taller than it was in summer. It has
7:24:59reached about 2.5 m. The surface is
7:25:02plated with a layer of gold. Su
7:25:04Chongqing decisively activated the
7:25:06Chongqing technique to check the
7:25:08details. Mutant mother rice. Many
7:25:10children, many blessings. Reichy
7:25:12cultivation. One jang of domain. The old
7:25:15entries have disappeared and have been
7:25:17replaced by new ones. Such Chonqing is
7:25:20very knowledgeable about the domain one
7:25:21Jang. After he upgraded the evergreen
7:25:24technique to the fifth level, he also
7:25:26gains similar abilities. It can perceive
7:25:28the condition of all spiritual plants
7:25:30within a ten jang radius and in great
7:25:32detail. Then Su Choning<unk>s gaze
7:25:35shifted horizontally. Next to the
7:25:37mutated mother rice is her child. There
7:25:39are a total of 95 plants. Each rice
7:25:42plant has six ears of grain. They are
7:25:44like miniature versions of mutated
7:25:46mother rice. The only difference appears
7:25:48to be the number and size of the rice
7:25:50ears. Mutant rice. No damage. Abundant
7:25:53spiritual energy. Already matured. Yield
7:25:5640 gene. There is no distinction in
7:25:59quality. Young rice is just young rice.
7:26:01It will not continue to grow. It cannot
7:26:03replace mother rice. Seeing this, Su
7:26:06Chongqing thought for a moment and then
7:26:07picked up a sickle. Harvesting one
7:26:09mutant rice plant increases its lifespan
7:26:12by 10 days. Harvesting one mutant rice
7:26:15plant increases its lifespan by 10 days.
7:26:17Harvesting one mutant rice plant
7:26:19increases its lifespan by 10 days. A
7:26:22total of 950 days of lifespan were
7:26:25gained, adding to the previous 79,881
7:26:29days. The remaining lifespan is 80,831
7:26:33days. That's equivalent to 221 years.
7:26:36Clearly, the mutated rice is of a higher
7:26:38grade than the second grade spirit rice.
7:26:41Therefore, the harvest lifespan is
7:26:43increased by 4 days. If it can be
7:26:45planted on a large scale on a large
7:26:47scale, the result was predictable.
7:26:49However, this idea cannot be realized at
7:26:52present. If planted outdoors, it will be
7:26:54easily discovered. Staying at the foot
7:26:56of the Rocky Mountain, however, meant
7:26:58there wasn't enough space. Currently,
7:27:01each harvest involves approximately 100
7:27:03plants. Time flies and another 3 months
7:27:06have passed. Such Chonqing reaped
7:27:08another harvest. The second grade spirit
7:27:10fields outside still grow spirit rice,
7:27:12sweet potatoes, and chili peppers. There
7:27:15are still 100 mutant rice plants at the
7:27:17foot of the Rocky Mountain. The second
7:27:19grade Lingi rice weighs 4,000 gene,
7:27:22approximately 2,000 caddies. The mutated
7:27:24spirit rice weighs 40 gene. Subtract the
7:27:271,000 gene that was handed over. The 800
7:27:30gene given to Leing by 150 gene were
7:27:34given to Hubu. 50 gene of Hansu. In
7:27:37addition, there's daily consumption and
7:27:39wine-making. Currently, we have 5,000
7:27:42gene of grade 2 Lingi rice in our
7:27:44possession. The mutated spirit rice
7:27:46previously consumed 10 gene 5 kg and now
7:27:50it weighs 70 gene 35 caddies. The
7:27:53remaining lifespan has changed from
7:27:5580,741
7:27:56days to 92,072
7:27:59days. That's equivalent to 252 years.
7:28:02Only one quarter has passed. Such
7:28:04Choning's lifespan was extended by
7:28:06another 30 years. It should be noted
7:28:08that a normal wood spirit route is in
7:28:10the chi refining stage. At most, their
7:28:13lifespan is between 120 and 150 years.
7:28:16Although Su Chongqing was also in theQi
7:28:19refining stage, his lifespan had already
7:28:21reached the foundation establishment
7:28:23stage. Cultivators simply don't have
7:28:25enough time. Sometimes a single period
7:28:27of seclusion can last for decades. The
7:28:30higher the level, the more time is
7:28:31consumed. Many people strive to reach a
7:28:34higher level of spiritual attainment
7:28:36because they are afraid of death. A
7:28:38minor realm can extend one's lifespan by
7:28:40several decades. If you want to cross a
7:28:42major realm, that would be several
7:28:43hundred or even a thousand years. Even
7:28:46if one's lifespan is extended, even if
7:28:48one becomes an immortal, one still
7:28:50cannot achieve immortality. Death
7:28:53continues to loom, striking fear into
7:28:55the hearts of countless cultivators and
7:28:57immortals. Such Chonqing, however, did
7:29:00not have this problem. As long as you
7:29:02honestly farm, even if you have poor
7:29:04aptitude, you can one day become an
7:29:06immortal or an ancestor. Fellow Daist Su
7:29:10on this day, Hubuguay arrived at the
7:29:12spirit field. Such Chanqing was roasting
7:29:14sweet potatoes when he saw him arrive.
7:29:17He immediately stood up from his chair
7:29:18and said, "Let's go." The two had
7:29:21arranged to go to the Red Maple Valley
7:29:22Market together to sell goods the day
7:29:24before yesterday. The current yield of
7:29:26second grade Lingi wine has reached 500
7:29:29gene. There were also several hundred kg
7:29:31of various vegetables such as sweet
7:29:33potatoes, Chinese cabbage, and peppers.
7:29:36Although they can be stored in storage
7:29:37bags, there are too many of them. The
7:29:39small storage bag doesn't provide enough
7:29:41space at all. You must go to Nang
7:29:44Cooperative to sell it. Come on up.
7:29:46Hubui patted the spirit beast camel
7:29:48beneath him. Su Chongqing smiled upon
7:29:50hearing this and then took out a flying
7:29:52paper crane from his small storage bag.
7:29:55The moment spiritual energy was
7:29:56injected, it immediately expanded
7:29:58several times over. Hubuay was taken
7:30:01aback. When did you buy it? Such
7:30:03Chanqing shrugged. 6 months ago. Wow.
7:30:06Hubuay put the spirit beast camel into
7:30:09the spirit beast pin then jumped onto
7:30:11the back of the flying paper crane.
7:30:13After observing it for a while, he
7:30:14exclaimed in surprise, "It's actually a
7:30:17high-grade product." Su Chongqing
7:30:19controlled the flying paper crane to
7:30:21rise and then asked, "I heard that this
7:30:23year's red maple valley market is going
7:30:25to be even more lively than last
7:30:27year's." Hubui nodded and said through
7:30:30gritted teeth, "That's right. Many
7:30:32formal disciples who went out have come
7:30:33back because they have to participate in
7:30:35this damn formal disciple competition.
7:30:38The more people there are, the greater
7:30:39the competition. Their rankings will be
7:30:41even lower. This left him both angry and
7:30:44helpless. Such Chan blinked. I don't
7:30:46care about that. I just want to find a
7:30:48formation master to help me install an
7:30:50insect killing formation. Hubui<unk>s
7:30:53eyes widened. Everything is going up in
7:30:55price now. The price of any formation is
7:30:57at least 15 mid-grade spirit stones. Are
7:31:00you that rich? It's all right, Su
7:31:02Chongqing shrugged. That is 5,000
7:31:04caddies of second grade spiritual rice,
7:31:0770 caddies of mutated spirit rice, 500
7:31:10caddies of second grade lingi wine,
7:31:12hundreds of kilograms of highquality
7:31:14vegetables. That's all. Chapter 52.
7:31:17Spirit wine is scrambled for and an
7:31:19encounter with a formation master.
7:31:21Chapter 52. The spirit wine is scrambled
7:31:24for and the two encounter a formation
7:31:26master riding a flying paper crane. The
7:31:29two gradually approached the Red Maple
7:31:30Valley Market. This is Sue Chongqing's
7:31:33second time here. Compared to the first
7:31:35time, the foot traffic is indeed much
7:31:37greater. Every now and then, you can see
7:31:39a shuttle, a flying boat, or a
7:31:41spaceship. Of course, the most common
7:31:43type is the flying paper crane. After
7:31:46all, the price isn't high, and the speed
7:31:48isn't slow. It offers excellent value
7:31:50for money. After landing, Hubu asked,
7:31:53"Shall we find a stall first?" Su
7:31:55Chanqin carefully put away the flying
7:31:57paper crane, then pointed to the
7:31:59Nongshin Society building not far away
7:32:01and said, "Let's<unk> sell some of the
7:32:03spirit rice and high-quality vegetables
7:32:05I've stored and exchange them for some
7:32:07spirit stones." Hubui nodded upon
7:32:09hearing this. "Okay, let's go at your
7:32:12pace." Immediately, the two headed
7:32:14towards Nongshims trading point. As it
7:32:16gets closer, you can see many
7:32:18cultivators. Various spiritual roots
7:32:20come and go. It was a sea of heads.
7:32:23After all, there is only one year left
7:32:25until the official disciple competition.
7:32:27Everyone wants to take this opportunity
7:32:29to make a fortune. Even if they don't
7:32:31shine brightly, they can still improve
7:32:32their ranking. Such Chongqing and Hubu
7:32:35quickly entered the first floor of
7:32:37Nongshin society. Both of them looked at
7:32:39today's market share without prior
7:32:41arrangement. The quality of grade 2
7:32:43spirit rice remains stable. Inferior 1
7:32:46minute and 1.7 seconds. Premium 1 minute
7:32:49and 1.6 seconds. Top quality 1 minute
7:32:52and 1.5 seconds. There are occasional
7:32:54fluctuations, but the changes are not
7:32:56significant. However, the price of
7:32:58premium ling rise has rebounded from the
7:33:01previous 1 6 or 1 7. The ratio has now
7:33:05reached 1 to8. This ratio is acceptable
7:33:07to many people. It's neither high nor
7:33:09low. Therefore, most people are now
7:33:12buying yippenling rice. Hub Buguay said
7:33:14gloatingly, "It's definitely because of
7:33:16the impact of the scattered cultivators
7:33:18market that even a behemoth like
7:33:20Nongshim Society has to compromise."
7:33:22Such Chongqing neither confirmed nor
7:33:24denied this, perhaps. Then he found a
7:33:27window with fewer people and queued up.
7:33:29The exchange was completed shortly
7:33:31afterward. A 500 gene second grade
7:33:33spirit field yielded top quality spirit
7:33:36rice and yielded three mid-grade spirit
7:33:38stones and 33 lowgrade spirit stones.
7:33:41Several hundred kilograms of highquality
7:33:43vegetables when combined barely amount
7:33:45to one mid-grade spirit stone. There's
7:33:48no way around it. The market has no
7:33:50shortage of highquality vegetables right
7:33:52now. Because many barn farmers grow it,
7:33:54the price is particularly stable.
7:33:56Fortunately, this was due to our
7:33:58previous efforts. Such Chonqing already
7:34:00has more than 20 mid-grade spirit
7:34:02stones. Inviting a formation master to
7:34:04install the formation is absolutely no
7:34:07problem. Moreover, there are still 500
7:34:09gene of second grade Lingi wine that
7:34:11haven't been sold. Once things were
7:34:13settled here, the two immediately left
7:34:15the trading point. Once outside, Hubui
7:34:18took the lead in setting the pace. Such
7:34:20Chonqing had only been here twice
7:34:22before. Moreover, there was a year in
7:34:24between. On the other hand, Hubuay was
7:34:27more familiar with the place because he
7:34:28had visited it more often. The two
7:34:30walked toward a street with more people,
7:34:32talking as they went. These stalls are
7:34:34divided into free and paid ones. What's
7:34:37the difference? Free stalls can only be
7:34:39set up on streets with low foot traffic.
7:34:41Got it. Paid stalls can be set up on
7:34:43streets with high foot traffic. Yes. So,
7:34:46you can just come with me. The two of
7:34:47you can rent a bigger place. Under
7:34:49Hubuay's guidance, they quickly found
7:34:51the manager of the rented stall. The
7:34:53more people on a street, the higher the
7:34:55stall fee. The minimum requirement is 10
7:34:58low-grade spirit stones, and the maximum
7:35:00can reach one mid-grade spirit stone.
7:35:02Before long, Hubuay found a suitable
7:35:04stall for two people. The stall fee is
7:35:0730 low-grade spirit stones. If it were
7:35:09just one person, it would indeed be
7:35:11quite tall. But if the cost is split
7:35:13between the two of them, it's barely
7:35:15acceptable. Moreover, the street where
7:35:17this stall is located has a high volume
7:35:19of pedestrian traffic. It's located
7:35:21right next to an intersection. People
7:35:23come and go in an endless stream. Such
7:35:26Chonqing only sells spirit rice wine, so
7:35:29one table is enough. Hubuay is
7:35:31different. He sells spirit beasts, which
7:35:33require a larger space. Su Chongqing
7:35:36picked up the prepared paper and pen and
7:35:38wrote down the price of the spirit rice
7:35:40wine. 20 low-grade spirit stones per
7:35:42gene 500g. No bargaining. This price is
7:35:45a bit expensive. Normal spirit rice wine
7:35:48costs one low-grade spirit stone per
7:35:50pound. Some inferior ones can sell for
7:35:52two or three gene one caddies or more.
7:35:55Even 5 gene, 2.5 caddies. But Su
7:35:59Chongqing was genuinely confident that
7:36:00he could sell it. After all, this is not
7:36:03just a second grade spirit rice wine. It
7:36:05is, however, a second grade Lingi wine
7:36:08of expert quality. 20 low-grade spirit
7:36:10stones per pound. Are you out of your
7:36:12mind? Yeah, it's not like we haven't
7:36:14tried it before. Who would sell it for
7:36:16such a high price? This is definitely my
7:36:18first time selling something. I'm so
7:36:20inexperienced. Passers by glanced at it,
7:36:23but were all deterred by the price. Many
7:36:25people were even angry, feeling that the
7:36:27price was impolite. Su Chongqing
7:36:30remained silent, but instead took out
7:36:31another piece of paper. Six large
7:36:33characters, free one cup sample. Just a
7:36:36small glass full poured out, and the
7:36:38rich aroma of alcohol quickly filled the
7:36:40air. The passers by who were initially
7:36:43disgusted, angry, and contemptuous
7:36:45suddenly froze. Many people twitched
7:36:48their nostrils. As I kept sniffing, I
7:36:50got closer to the stall. One of the men,
7:36:52a rather thick-necked man, couldn't help
7:36:54but swallow hard. Fellow Daist, your
7:36:57spirit rice wine tastes so special. What
7:37:00grade of spirit rice was it brewed from?
7:37:02Second rank. Su Chongqing held up two
7:37:04fingers of his right hand. Everyone was
7:37:06taken aback by what they heard. They've
7:37:08had second grade spirit rice wine
7:37:10before. Most of the Lingi wine on the
7:37:12market is brewed from second grade Lingi
7:37:14rice. It definitely doesn't smell like
7:37:16alcohol. Finally, the burly man couldn't
7:37:19resist any longer and asked, "Can I
7:37:21really try a cup?" Su Chongqing nodded,
7:37:24"Of course. then I won't be polite. The
7:37:26other person immediately grabbed the
7:37:28wine glass and brought it to their lips,
7:37:30but he didn't drink it right away.
7:37:32Instead, they inhaled deeply the
7:37:34pervasive aroma of alcohol. Gradually, I
7:37:37became completely absorbed in the
7:37:39experience. After a long while, he
7:37:41cautiously took a sip. The moment it
7:37:43touched my taste buds, my eyes widened
7:37:45in surprise. The liquor wasn't very
7:37:48strong, but it had a wonderful
7:37:49aftertaste. After sliding into the
7:37:51abdomen, it immediately turned into a
7:37:54warm current that flowed throughout the
7:37:56body. I felt refreshed from the inside
7:37:58out. He even unconsciously let out a
7:38:00groan. Such Chongqing observed the other
7:38:02party's reaction and asked with a smile,
7:38:04"How was it? I'll buy 10." "No, I'll buy
7:38:0820, Jean." The burlynecked uncle
7:38:10immediately pulled out his money. "Huh?"
7:38:12The people around were completely
7:38:13dumbfounded. "Could it be a plant?"
7:38:15someone wondered. However, ignoring the
7:38:18suspicious looks from those around him,
7:38:19the burlynecked man gave Su Chongqing a
7:38:22fawning smile and asked, "Fellow Daist,
7:38:24could you give me one of your
7:38:26communication talismans?" Su Chonqing
7:38:28shook his head and said, "Sorry, I don't
7:38:31like being disturbed." "Just kidding. I
7:38:33have so many secrets about myself. If
7:38:35people keep coming to buy alcohol, it
7:38:37will be easy to be discovered. What a
7:38:39pity." The burlynecked man turned and
7:38:41left with a hint of regret. "Is it
7:38:43really that good?" People around them
7:38:45started trying it. However, everyone who
7:38:48had drunk it had the same reaction as
7:38:49the burlynecked uncle from earlier. That
7:38:52means paying money. Some people buy 5
7:38:54gene 2.5 caddies. Some people buy 10
7:38:57gene, five caddies. In just a short
7:38:59while, 100 gene of second grade Lingi
7:39:01wine were sold. It should be noted that
7:39:04one gene 500g costs 20 low-grade spirit
7:39:07stones. 100 gene is equal to 2,000
7:39:10lowgrade spirit stones. This is
7:39:12equivalent to 20 mid-grade spirit
7:39:14stones. Hubay,
7:39:17who was standing nearby, couldn't help
7:39:19but gasp. I haven't even opened for
7:39:21business yet. They earned 20 mid-grade
7:39:23spirit stones. The differences between
7:39:25people are just too great. However, this
7:39:27is just the beginning. As more and more
7:39:29people buy, a herd mentality will be
7:39:31triggered. As a result, not only did
7:39:34more people buy them, but word of mouth
7:39:35also began to spread. Su Chongqing
7:39:38started as an ordinary farmer. He
7:39:40suddenly became a well-known wine maker.
7:39:42Fortunately, he was cautious. They did
7:39:44not take out all 500 gene of second
7:39:46grade spirit rice wine. Otherwise, it
7:39:49will lead to two outcomes. First, it
7:39:51caused a looting frenzy. Second, it
7:39:53attracts attention. Of course, this has
7:39:56already happened. Fortunately, it was
7:39:57small scale within a controllable range.
7:40:00They watched as 200 gene of second grade
7:40:02Lingi wine were sold. Received 40
7:40:05mid-grade spirit stones. It's sufficient
7:40:07for both daily life and finding a
7:40:09formation master. Therefore, Su Chonqing
7:40:12decided to close up shop. Just then, a
7:40:14person squeezed through the crowd
7:40:16wearing a sun hood. She has a curvaceous
7:40:18figure. Judging from her appearance, she
7:40:20was clearly a female cultivator. They
7:40:23weren't wearing the formal attire of a
7:40:25disciple, so their spiritual roots and
7:40:27origins were not discernible. Han Exan
7:40:29smelled the lingering scent of alcohol
7:40:31in the air and immediately looked up to
7:40:33ask, "Is there any more?" Looking at
7:40:35this fairly delicate face, Su Chongqing
7:40:38felt like he'd seen it somewhere before
7:40:40and asked in return, "How many do you
7:40:42want?" Han Xen licked her lips and said,
7:40:44"I'll take as many as you have." Su
7:40:47Chaning took out five gene and handed it
7:40:49over. This is all that's left. Han Xen
7:40:52tossed out a mid-grade spirit stone and
7:40:54said generously, "Keep the change." Then
7:40:57under the astonished gazes of Su
7:40:59Chongqing and those around her, he
7:41:01poured it directly into his mouth and
7:41:03drank it like a guzzler. Glug glug glug.
7:41:06It took a full 10 seconds to stop and
7:41:08then he let out a burp. Hubui standing
7:41:11nearby exclaimed in surprise, "Wow,
7:41:13she's actually a female drunkard." Such
7:41:16Chanqing was also surprised, not
7:41:18expecting the other party to love
7:41:19drinking so much. Wait a minute. Han
7:41:22Xian savored the taste carefully, then
7:41:24suddenly felt it was familiar. She
7:41:26quickly remembered something and
7:41:28couldn't help but look at Su Chongqing
7:41:30in front of her. Then she tentatively
7:41:32asked, "Do you know PMO?" Su Chongqing
7:41:35paused for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."
7:41:37Han Xen then asked, "Do you know Leing?"
7:41:40Su Chongqing remained silent, only
7:41:43nodding repeatedly. Han Xen finally
7:41:45remembered and exclaimed with wide eyes.
7:41:48"So this wine tastes just like the one
7:41:49PMO gave me. It turns out you brewed
7:41:52it." At this moment, Su Chongqing
7:41:54finally remembered who this woman was
7:41:56and exclaimed, "I remember now. You also
7:41:59attended senior brother Lee Lingbi<unk>s
7:42:00birthday banquet. You were that
7:42:02formation master." Five people stayed
7:42:04behind after attending Lee Lingbi<unk>s
7:42:07birthday banquet. Myself, Li, Sankai,
7:42:09PMO, and Lee Lingbi. The fifth person is
7:42:12the one standing right in front of us, a
7:42:15female array mage who has awakened the
7:42:17Earth Elemental Route. Chapter 53.
7:42:19Everyone's had their own troubles.
7:42:21People, dogs, and chickens toasted.
7:42:24Chapter 53. Everyone has their own
7:42:26circumstances. Man, dog, and chicken
7:42:28cheers. Yes, yes, yes. Han Xen grinned,
7:42:32revealing a row of white teeth. I
7:42:34thought you were just a little brother
7:42:36following Leang Kai. But I didn't expect
7:42:38your brewing skills to be so excellent.
7:42:40H. Such Chonqing looked slightly
7:42:42embarrassed. Han Xin seemed unaware that
7:42:45her words were somewhat hurtful and
7:42:47continued nonchalantly. Ever since PM Mo
7:42:50went to the central region with Lee
7:42:51Lingbi, I've been craving this wine. Su
7:42:54Chongqing<unk>s heart skipped a beat.
7:42:56Could I ask you to install a formation?
7:42:58Since the other party was chosen by
7:43:00Liingbai as one of their own. This shows
7:43:02that he must have a talent for
7:43:03formations. Han Xen took a sip of the
7:43:06spirit rice wine, then wiped the wine
7:43:08from the corner of her mouth with her
7:43:10hand before replying, "Sure, what's the
7:43:12price?" Su Chaning asked with a curious
7:43:15look. Han Xian thought for a moment and
7:43:17said, "Forget about the spirit stones. I
7:43:20have a lot in my storage bag. You can
7:43:22use spirit rice wine as payment
7:43:23afterward." Upon hearing that no spirit
7:43:26stones were required, Su Chongqing<unk>s
7:43:28eyes lit up. How many kilograms do you
7:43:30want? Han Xen clicked her tongue and
7:43:32said, "Since we're<unk> on the same
7:43:34side, I'll give you a friendly price.
7:43:36100 caddies of spirit rice wine to
7:43:38install a low-level formation. It's not
7:43:41impossible." Such Choning thought for a
7:43:43moment and agreed. 100 caddies of second
7:43:46grade spirit rice wine is equivalent to
7:43:4820 mid-grade spirit stones. Currently, a
7:43:51low-level formation costs 15 mid-grade
7:43:53spirit stones on the market. Although it
7:43:56was a small loss, but it's all right. At
7:43:58least I made the acquaintance of a
7:43:59formation master. The two then exchanged
7:44:02communication tokens. Then Su Chongqing
7:44:04simply packed up and closed the stall.
7:44:06They started helping Hubuay sell spirit
7:44:08beasts. Perhaps it was because of Su
7:44:11Chongqing sale of spirit rice wine.
7:44:13Quite a few people did inquire about the
7:44:15price. They even bought spirit beasts. I
7:44:17made quite a bit of money throughout the
7:44:19day. It's much better than a few years
7:44:21ago. As afternoon approached and their
7:44:23stall session ended, the two did not
7:44:25return home. It's still early. You can
7:44:27wander around. Let's see what's new at
7:44:29the Red Maple Valley Market these days.
7:44:31As I wandered around, I didn't see many
7:44:33new things. We bought quite a lot of
7:44:35food. It's either a popular pastry from
7:44:37outside the market. It's either food
7:44:39imbued with spiritual energy. Although
7:44:42we are all cultivators, we usually eat
7:44:44lingi, a type of rice. They were
7:44:46drinking from a sacred spring. But it
7:44:48must be admitted that food from other
7:44:50places has a unique flavor. It
7:44:52especially contains the human touch that
7:44:54is familiar to everyone, but has
7:44:56gradually become distant from us.
7:44:58Suddenly, three familiar faces walk
7:45:00towards us. They are Xiao Xio, Xiaoing,
7:45:03and Jeang. When they saw Su Chongqing,
7:45:06they were all stunned. Jeang was all
7:45:08right. Even though the two of them had a
7:45:10very bad relationship to begin with,
7:45:12Ziao Xiao and Xiaoing on the other hand
7:45:15had extremely complicated expressions.
7:45:17Ziao Xiao in particular hesitated for a
7:45:20moment before turning to Zangir beside
7:45:22him and asking in a low voice, "Senior
7:45:25brotherh, could you lend me Tin of Grade
7:45:27two spirit rice?" "What?" Jeangier
7:45:30looked at him in surprise. Ziao Xiao
7:45:32pointed at Su Chongqing and said, "I owe
7:45:34him." Upon hearing this, Zangir narrowed
7:45:37his eyes and after a moment's thought,
7:45:39nodded, "Okay, but it will have to be
7:45:42deducted from your resources." Ziao Xio
7:45:44was stunned, then revealed an expression
7:45:47of extreme resentment. After
7:45:49encountering difficulties last time, he
7:45:51had no choice but to seek refuge with
7:45:53Zangir. Although the spirit field still
7:45:55belongs to them, the yield of each
7:45:57harvest must be shared with the other
7:45:59party. Therefore, they were not much
7:46:01different from tenant farmers like
7:46:02Xiaoing. Resources are scarce to begin
7:46:04with, and cultivation is slow. Now we
7:46:07have to deduct a portion, but there was
7:46:09nothing I could do. I had run into my
7:46:11creditors here. It's been almost a year
7:46:13since I last paid my dues, and I feel a
7:46:15bit guilty,"Hang asked, sounding
7:46:17slightly impatient. "How is it?" "Okay."
7:46:20Ziao Xiao took a deep breath and gritted
7:46:22his teeth to agree. Then Jang Airir took
7:46:25out ten gene of second grade spirit rice
7:46:27from his storage bag. But instead of
7:46:29handing it to the other person, he threw
7:46:31it on the ground with a look of disgust.
7:46:33Upon seeing this, Ziao Xiao<unk>s face
7:46:35darkened and a surge of anger welled up
7:46:38inside him. At this moment, Ziaoing, who
7:46:40was standing next to her, secretly
7:46:42tugged at the corner of her clothes.
7:46:44Finally, Ziao Xio, trembling all over,
7:46:48bent down and picked up the ten gene of
7:46:50grade two spiritual rice from the ground
7:46:52like a beggar begging for food. He
7:46:54immediately went up to Su Chongqing
7:46:56without saying a word. He stuffed the
7:46:58spirit rice directly into his arms, then
7:47:00turned and went back. Seeing this, Su
7:47:03Chongqing<unk>s gaze swept over Ziao
7:47:05Xio, Xiaoing, and Zangir one by one. He
7:47:08never expected that these three people
7:47:10or even two of them would come together.
7:47:12Unlike Xiaoing, Xiao Xiao possessed a
7:47:15natural talent for planting. He passed
7:47:17the assessment on the periphery in just
7:47:19two attempts and became a formal
7:47:21disciple. Logically speaking, they
7:47:23should have a bright future. Things are
7:47:25different now. The four of us who were
7:47:27promoted to permanent positions
7:47:28together. Lenon was arrested for breach
7:47:30of contract, and it's unclear what he's
7:47:32doing there. Xiao Xio and Xiaoing both
7:47:35joined Jangir<unk>s forces and became
7:47:37tenant farmers. Jang Aryan chuckled.
7:47:39Junior brother Su, it's been a long
7:47:41time. You're getting more and more
7:47:43carefree as you live. Su Chanqing stared
7:47:45at the other man with indifferent eyes
7:47:47and casually asked, "How have you been
7:47:49lately, senior brotherhair
7:47:51glanced at Xiao Xiao, who looked
7:47:53agrieved and then said meaningfully, "Of
7:47:56course, it would be great. It would be
7:47:57even better if you joined us, too. Apart
7:48:00from Hubu, everyone else here could
7:48:02understand. After all, Su Chongqing,
7:48:05Ziao Xiao, and Xiaoing were promoted to
7:48:07full-time positions together." Su
7:48:09Chonqing shrugged. Thank you for your
7:48:11concern, senior brother Jeang. But I'm
7:48:13currently with senior brother Liang Kai
7:48:15and can't get away for the time being.
7:48:17Upon hearing this, Jangir raised an
7:48:19eyebrow and took a few steps forward to
7:48:21stand in front of Su Chongqing. The two
7:48:24looked at each other, their eyes filled
7:48:25with each other's reflections. Then
7:48:28Jangir sneered. I knew that the person
7:48:30who helped you back then was Liang Kai.
7:48:32Unfortunately, compared to my cousin
7:48:34Jang Su, he is ultimately lacking. Su
7:48:36Chongqing smiled slightly. Senior
7:48:39brother Jang Su. I ran into him at Lee
7:48:41Lingb<unk>s birthday banquet last time.
7:48:43It's<unk> a pity he left too soon and we
7:48:45didn't get a chance to catch up. Upon
7:48:47hearing this, Jangir<unk>s pupils shrank
7:48:49immediately. After a moment of surprise
7:48:51and uncertainty, he turned around and
7:48:54shouted at Ziao Xiao and Xiaoing behind
7:48:56him. What are you standing there for?
7:48:58Let's go. Watching the other person's
7:49:00hurried departure, Su Chongqing revealed
7:49:02a mocking smile. Zangir originally
7:49:04wanted to use his cousin Jeang Su to
7:49:06disgust himself. After all, what
7:49:09happened last time is still fresh in my
7:49:11mind. The result was not only
7:49:12unsuccessful, but also quite shocking.
7:49:15Lisa's status in Linton was indeed
7:49:17inferior to Jeang Sus, which was obvious
7:49:20to all, but it has an advantage that
7:49:22many people don't have. That was my
7:49:24cousin Leing. This genius, whose three
7:49:27spiritual roots complement each other,
7:49:29is about to break through to the golden
7:49:30core stage. Moreover, what Jangir feared
7:49:33even more was his master behind him.
7:49:36This is a nent soul true monarch that
7:49:38the entire Jeang family cannot afford to
7:49:40offend. Hubuay asked with a displeased
7:49:42look. Who is this idiot? Su Choning
7:49:45shook his head. I'd say we're half
7:49:47acquaintances. Hubui curled his lip.
7:49:50This guy's words are so annoying. Such
7:49:52Chonqing didn't seem to care and instead
7:49:54said, "Let's go home." The two
7:49:56immediately left the Red Maple Valley
7:49:58Market. For the first half of the
7:50:00journey, we still used paper cranes. As
7:50:02they drew closer to the entrance of the
7:50:04spirit beast valley, Hubui summoned his
7:50:07spirit beast camel and said with a
7:50:09smile, "Fellow Daois Su, see you next
7:50:11year." "Okay, see you next year." Su
7:50:14Chongqing bowed with his hands clasped.
7:50:16Soon, Hubu ran far away. Su Chonqing, on
7:50:20the other hand, piloted the flying paper
7:50:22crane alone. I finally got home before
7:50:24sunset. Woof! Woof! The yellow dog
7:50:27excitedly rubbed against its owner's
7:50:28feet. The guinea fowl was still standing
7:50:31on the armrest of the chair just like
7:50:32always. He appears to rule the world,
7:50:35but in reality, his black eyes are
7:50:37constantly darting around. I don't know
7:50:39what he's thinking. Su Chongqing
7:50:41squatted down, stroked the dog's head,
7:50:43and laughed. A fellow Daist has already
7:50:46given you a name. From now on, you'll be
7:50:48called Wong Wong. Woof woof. Wong Wong
7:50:50grinned foolishly. Such Chanqing stood
7:50:53up and walked towards the kitchen,
7:50:54muttering to himself. A lot happened at
7:50:56the Red Maple Valley Market today. He
7:50:59didn't care whether Wong Wong and the
7:51:00Guinea Fowl could understand him. He
7:51:02began to pour out his heart to himself.
7:51:05After all, there's no other living
7:51:06person here. This year marks my first
7:51:08year as a formal disciple. Last year,
7:51:11only Lingi and Wa kept me company. This
7:51:13year, they've added a guinea fowl. Even
7:51:16the food was exceptionally plentiful.
7:51:18Roasted sweet potatoes, stir-fried
7:51:20cabbage with chili peppers, stir-fried
7:51:22eggs with chili peppers, half a
7:51:24watermelon, and various desserts.
7:51:26Whether you prepared it yourself or
7:51:27bought it at the Red Maple Valley
7:51:29Market, in short, there was so much
7:51:31stuff that it couldn't all fit on the
7:51:33table. Soon, a person, a dog, and a
7:51:36chicken were sitting at the table. In
7:51:37front of me is a steaming bowl of
7:51:39delicious food. Such Chanqing personally
7:51:42filled the bowls of Wong Wong and the
7:51:44Guinea Fowl with water, then filled his
7:51:46own small wine cup with spirit rice wine
7:51:48and then raised it up. Wong Wong is
7:51:50another year older. From now on, you
7:51:53should stay home and guard the house
7:51:54properly and not run around anymore.
7:51:57Don't always be so worried about eating
7:51:58guinea fowl. If you wanted to, you would
7:52:01have already done it. As for me, I
7:52:03worked fairly hard this year, but I need
7:52:05to avoid arrogance and impetuosity and
7:52:07strive to do better next year. Cheers.
7:52:10Chapter 54, 800 Tales of Spirit Fields.
7:52:13Low-level Golden Killing Array. Chapter
7:52:1554, 800 Tales of the Spirit Field.
7:52:18Low-level Golden Killing Array. New
7:52:20Year's Day. With a creek, the brown
7:52:22wooden door was pulled open from the
7:52:24inside. Suddenly, a cold, damp wind
7:52:27carrying a dense flurry of snow rushed
7:52:29into the house. The ground was covered
7:52:31with a layer of frost at a speed visible
7:52:33to the naked eye. In an instant, the
7:52:35temperature inside the room plummeted.
7:52:37The guinea fowl, who were still sleeping
7:52:39in, were suddenly woken up by the cold.
7:52:42The dog and the chicken quickly huddled
7:52:44together for warmth. Such Chongqing
7:52:46poked his head out and glanced outside.
7:52:48Everything was white without a single
7:52:50other color in sight. Everything in the
7:52:52world was frozen. The biting cold wind
7:52:54howled. The heavy snowflakes fell
7:52:56softly. The snow came later this year
7:52:58than last year, Su Chonqing remarked.
7:53:01Fortunately, he was completely
7:53:02unaffected. The hardest time for the
7:53:04wood spirit root is in the summer when
7:53:06the heat is unbearable. On the contrary,
7:53:09spring, autumn, and winter are
7:53:11relatively comfortable seasons.
7:53:13Moreover, his cultivation level has now
7:53:15reached the late stage of chi refining.
7:53:17After this period of improvement, the
7:53:19spiritual energy within my body has
7:53:21increased to seven strands. At this
7:53:24rate, he might break through to the
7:53:25foundation establishment stage on the
7:53:27day of the spiritual chi tide creek.
7:53:30Such Chongqing closed the brown wooden
7:53:32door again. The commotion outside came
7:53:34to an abrupt halt. The wind and snow
7:53:36that came in defiance felt like being
7:53:38turned away. Seeing the two little ones
7:53:40still trembling, Su Chongqing moved the
7:53:43portable stove from the corner. Although
7:53:45they don't need it themselves, they
7:53:47desperately need it right now. Of
7:53:48course, let's roast a few sweet potatoes
7:53:50while we're at it. A small amount of hay
7:53:52and scraps were thrown into the stove.
7:53:55Then strike the flints together to
7:53:57generate a dense shower of sparks. Soon,
7:54:00the orange flames quickly engulfed the
7:54:02hay and debris. The fire grew larger,
7:54:04and the temperature gradually increased.
7:54:06The chill that had seeped into the house
7:54:08gradually subsided as it lost its
7:54:10backup. Just a second ago, Wong Wong and
7:54:13the guinea fowl were snuggling together.
7:54:15The next second, they separated with
7:54:17expressions of disgust. Your friendship
7:54:19is so short-lived. Su Chongqing shook
7:54:21his head upon seeing this, then walked
7:54:23towards the kitchen and began preparing
7:54:25breakfast. Then I plan to go out and
7:54:27visit relatives and friends for the new
7:54:29year. Han Su and Hubu are a bit far
7:54:32away. Binger is not at that level. The
7:54:34Luo siblings haven't been in contact for
7:54:36several months. Now there is only one
7:54:39person left to send New Year's greetings
7:54:41to Liangai. Half an hour later, Su
7:54:44Chongqing opened the door again after
7:54:46finishing breakfast. The sky was still
7:54:48overcast. The heavy snow kept falling,
7:54:51covering the ground layer upon layer.
7:54:53Bury everything from the past deep
7:54:54inside. Such Chanqing took out a flying
7:54:57paper crane and leaped into the air. As
7:54:59it flew, it suddenly took out a straw
7:55:01hat and put it on its head. There was
7:55:04nothing wrong with it. Snow got into my
7:55:06eyes. The flying paper crane is
7:55:08excellent value for money.
7:55:09Unfortunately, it offers neither shelter
7:55:11from the wind nor protection from the
7:55:13rain. Fortunately, it's faster than
7:55:15walking. Before long, they arrived near
7:55:18Leansai's spiritual field. Su Chongqing
7:55:21stood in front of the fence gate and
7:55:22called out, "Senior brother? Who is it?"
7:55:25Li was quite surprised that someone came
7:55:27to see him so early in the morning.
7:55:29"It's me." Su Chongqing grinned. Seeing
7:55:32the other person braving the heavy snow,
7:55:34Liengai quickened his pace and asked
7:55:36with a surprised look. "Why are you
7:55:38looking for me so early in the morning?"
7:55:40Once the gate opened, Su Chongqing
7:55:42handed over a pound of second grade
7:55:44spirit rice wine that he had prepared in
7:55:45advance and then explained, "I've come
7:55:48to wish you a happy new year." "Uh"
7:55:50Leankai was stunned. Su Chongqing asked
7:55:53with a smile. "Senior brother, don't you
7:55:55need to go home to pay New Year's
7:55:56visits?" Li Sanankai shook his head and
7:55:59said sadly, "I haven't been home for
7:56:01many years since my parents died.
7:56:03Normally, cultivation families should be
7:56:05united and friendly. But ever since
7:56:07Leing's lineage rose to prominence, the
7:56:10atmosphere suddenly changed. Various
7:56:12forms of deceit and treachery. You
7:56:14scheme against me, I scheme against you.
7:56:17Home is no longer home. There is no
7:56:19warmth to be felt. The family members
7:56:21are becoming increasingly cold and
7:56:23impersonal. They never care. They only
7:56:25know how to take. After becoming
7:56:27completely disillusioned with his
7:56:28family, Liang Kai never went back. Such
7:56:31Chongqing could sense the emptiness in
7:56:33the person in front of him and
7:56:35immediately said, "Every year from now
7:56:37on, I will come to my senior brother's
7:56:39place to pay my respects." "Great,"
7:56:41Lienkai smiled with satisfaction, deeply
7:56:44moved. The two then went inside. "Junior
7:56:47brother, please sit down. I'll go
7:56:48prepare some food," Lienkai said and
7:56:51walked toward the kitchen. Su Chongqing
7:56:53sat on the cold, hard chair, his eyes
7:56:55curiously scanning his surroundings.
7:56:58"The interior is very simple. There are
7:57:00only the most basic table and chairs,
7:57:02nothing more. It seems that Liang Kai is
7:57:04not interested in many things. On the
7:57:06other hand, Jang Su is enjoying herself
7:57:09to the fullest. The room was filled with
7:57:11all sorts of antiques and calligraphy
7:57:13and paintings, making it a dazzling
7:57:15sight. The two people are completely
7:57:17opposite. Not long after, Lean took out
7:57:19the food. Such Chongqing glanced at it,
7:57:22his lips twitching several times. It's
7:57:24less of a meal and more of a snack to
7:57:26accompany drinks. It seems this pound of
7:57:28second grade Lingi wine won't last past
7:57:30today. Why isn't my junior brother
7:57:32eating? Lienkai asked puzzled. Su
7:57:35Chongqing chuckled dryly. In my
7:57:37hometown, we get red envelopes when we
7:57:39visit relatives for the new year.
7:57:41Liengai was taken aback, then said with
7:57:43a rice smile, "How much do you want?" Su
7:57:46Chongqing rubbed his hands together
7:57:48excitedly, "Senior brother, give me
7:57:50whatever you think is appropriate. I
7:57:52don't mind if it's one low-grade spirit
7:57:54stone, and I don't mind if it's one
7:57:56mid-grade spirit stone. Liang Kai nodded
7:57:58upon hearing this and then took out a
7:58:00mid-grade spirit stone from his storage
7:58:02bag. Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up, he
7:58:05hadn't expected such a generous offer.
7:58:07However, when the spirit stone was
7:58:09handed over, Li Sankai suddenly withdrew
7:58:11his hand. "Huh?" Su Chonqing looked at
7:58:14the other person in disbelief. Li
7:58:16Sanankai said with a serious expression.
7:58:18I suddenly feel that something else
7:58:20would be more helpful to you than spirit
7:58:22stones. Su Chongqing was very curious.
7:58:25What is it? Li Sanankai took out a book
7:58:27and handed it over while introducing it.
7:58:29This book is called the record of
7:58:31spiritual fields. It records in detail
7:58:34various spiritual plants and various
7:58:36emergencies. You've only been a member
7:58:38of the spirit field corps for a year, so
7:58:40you probably don't know much about many
7:58:41things. Su Chongqing immediately took it
7:58:44and said excitedly, "Thank you, senior
7:58:47brother. This is exactly what I
7:58:48desperately need. Otherwise, you'll
7:58:51always have to bother others." A sly
7:58:53glint flashed in Lissi's eyes. As
7:58:55everyone knows, one mid-grade spirit
7:58:57stone is equal to 100 low-grade spirit
7:59:00stones. "This book, the record of spirit
7:59:02fields, is sold for 10 lowgrade spirit
7:59:05stones." Su Chongqing excitedly began
7:59:08flipping through the pages. I quickly
7:59:10found some useful information. How to
7:59:12avoid insect infestations in spring? A
7:59:14turn the soil in the winter when the
7:59:16temperature is low. Why? Because the
7:59:18insect eggs will freeze to death. By
7:59:21noon, Su Chongqing had no choice but to
7:59:23leave. It wasn't because he was trying
7:59:25to freload that Leen kicked him out. It
7:59:27was the female array mage Han Xen who
7:59:30notified them. The formation will be
7:59:32installed today. Therefore, he had to go
7:59:34home early. About half an hour later,
7:59:36Han Xen arrived as expected. It has to
7:59:38be said, array masters are really rich.
7:59:41Others use flying paper cranes or
7:59:43mythical beasts. She was actually
7:59:45piloting a black flying shuttle. Su
7:59:47Chonqing couldn't help but ask, "It's
7:59:49snowing here. Are you sure you want to
7:59:51install the formation?" Han Xen
7:59:53carefully put away the shuttle, then
7:59:55said with a smile, "Isn't this taking
7:59:57care of our own people? Are you sure?"
7:59:59Su Chanqing looked at her with
8:00:01suspicion. Han Xian<unk>s smile
8:00:03vanished, and she rolled her eyes in
8:00:05annoyance. Fine. I came to you because I
8:00:07was out of alcohol. Su Chongqing
8:00:10exclaimed, "That's five catties of
8:00:11spirit rice wine. Is 5G a lot?" Han Xen
8:00:15curled her lip in disdain. I Su
8:00:18Chongqing was speechless. Han Xen waved
8:00:20her hand impatiently. Stop talking
8:00:23nonsense. Which low-level formation do
8:00:25you want to install? Su Chongqing
8:00:27snapped out of his revery and pondered.
8:00:29The insecticide is called Gene. What was
8:00:31it again? Although I obtained the
8:00:33records of spirit fields from senior
8:00:35brotherly. However, the formation must
8:00:38be installed. After all, it's safer and
8:00:40more secure. Han Xen blurted out, Golden
8:00:43Killing Formation. Su Chonqing nodded
8:00:46vigorously. Yes, yes, yes. Let's call it
8:00:49the golden killing formation. Chapter
8:00:5155, the five elements and four seasons
8:00:54formation. My goal. Chapter 55. Five
8:00:56elements and four seasons formation. The
8:00:59goal in my heart at this moment. Hanxen
8:01:01took out a spiritual artifact from her
8:01:03storage bag. Upon closer inspection, Su
8:01:06Chongqing felt it resembled a compass
8:01:08used in Geommancy. It's only the size of
8:01:10a palm and consists of many rings. Each
8:01:13ring has different markings and symbols.
8:01:15You can understand it? Han Xen glanced
8:01:18at him sideways, her eyes filled with
8:01:20provocation. Such Chanqing asked,
8:01:22seemingly understanding, but not quite.
8:01:25When installing an array, do we need to
8:01:27consider Funue? Hanxin looked surprised
8:01:29upon hearing this, then nodded and said,
8:01:32"Installing an array sounds like a
8:01:34simple matter, but in reality, it
8:01:36requires many steps. Direction,
8:01:39orientation, terrain, landform, and
8:01:41funue layout all need to be confirmed
8:01:43one by one." Su Chongqing suddenly
8:01:46realized, "No wonder array masters have
8:01:48very high requirements for
8:01:49comprehension." Next, Han Xen infused
8:01:52her earth elemental power into the
8:01:54compass. Instantly, an invisible aura
8:01:57spread out. Such Chonqing could vaguely
8:01:59sense the changes. This is especially
8:02:01pronounced in the east. This may be due
8:02:03to the awakening of the wood spirit
8:02:05route. As for the other directions, the
8:02:07perception is very vague. Next, Han Xen
8:02:11walked around the spirit field. Such
8:02:13Chongqing couldn't help and could only
8:02:14watch helplessly from the sidelines.
8:02:17After a long silence, Han Xen suddenly
8:02:19spoke up. I have already confirmed all
8:02:22the advantages and disadvantages of your
8:02:24acre of spirit field. And then Such Chan
8:02:27pressed. Han Xen continued. Even a
8:02:30low-level golden killing array needs a
8:02:32metal attribute spiritual artifact to
8:02:34reach its maximum effect. Therefore, you
8:02:37will have to sacrifice a few artifacts.
8:02:39Next, I'll tell you where to bury him,
8:02:41and you bury him there. Okay. Su
8:02:44Chongqing nodded as he took out his
8:02:45magical artifact. Han Xen then began to
8:02:48give instructions. Although this is an
8:02:50array that covers the spirit field, but
8:02:52in reality, most of the magical
8:02:54artifacts are buried in the west. Each
8:02:56magical artifact will have a low-grade
8:02:58spirit stone placed on top. Then she
8:03:01came to the very center of the spirit
8:03:02field. Then he took something out. Such
8:03:05Chongqing recognized him. This is the
8:03:07Tai sword pill, exclusive to those with
8:03:10the golden spirit route. It's like your
8:03:12signature weapon. Han XIN activated the
8:03:14earth shaking technique and the black
8:03:16soil covered in ice and snow and frozen
8:03:19solid instantly separated. The rich
8:03:21earth energy formed a clockwise rotating
8:03:24earthy yellow vortex. The concentration
8:03:26of earth elemental energy in the air has
8:03:29increased. Subsequently, Han Xen placed
8:03:32the Taibby sword pill into the vortex as
8:03:34the core of the formation. In an
8:03:36instant, the entire spirit field
8:03:38trembled and a chilling aura spread out.
8:03:41Su Chongqing felt threatened and
8:03:43subconsciously took a few steps back.
8:03:45Han Xian glanced at it and then smiled.
8:03:48Don't worry, although it's metal, it's
8:03:50just a low-level insect killing
8:03:51formation. It won't cause you much harm.
8:03:54That's good. Such Chongqing breathed a
8:03:56sigh of relief. At this moment, Han Xen
8:03:59tossed over a talisman and explained,
8:04:01"The golden killing array has two
8:04:03operating modes. One is continuous
8:04:05operation, which automatically kills
8:04:07insects. Another option is to keep it
8:04:09off normally and turn it on only when
8:04:11needed. Here's the activation talisman
8:04:13for the formation. Such Chanqing took it
8:04:16and felt a chill in his hand, but the
8:04:18material is very delicate, as smooth as
8:04:20human skin. The runes above are obscure
8:04:23and profound and cannot be understood at
8:04:25all. Hanxen put the compass away and
8:04:28then continued. Also, spirit stones are
8:04:30consumables and need to be replaced
8:04:32about every 6 months. The golden
8:04:34spiritual power that powers the Taibby
8:04:37sword pill is injected once a year. Such
8:04:39Chonqing kept it firmly in mind. At that
8:04:42moment, he noticed that Han Xian<unk>s
8:04:44eyes were staring straight at him. He
8:04:46would occasionally lick his lower lip.
8:04:48What are you going to do? Su Chonqing
8:04:50asked nervously. Han Xian put her hands
8:04:52on her hips and said angrily. I've
8:04:54already installed the formation for you.
8:04:56What are you still standing there for?
8:04:59Get some wine. You want spirit rice
8:05:01wine? I thought. Su Chonqing finally
8:05:03realized and hurriedly took out the
8:05:05spirit rice wine from his small storage
8:05:07bag. Han Xian glared at her and asked in
8:05:10an unfriendly tone, "What do you think?"
8:05:12Su Chan gave an awkward laugh. "Ahem, I
8:05:15thought you were hungry." Han Xen
8:05:17carefully put away the 100 gene of grade
8:05:192 spirit rice wine, then nodded. I
8:05:22really haven't had lunch. In fact, she
8:05:25ate alcohol as her meals. After drinking
8:05:27enough wine, one is full of food. Let's
8:05:30go together then, Su Chongqing offered.
8:05:32They specifically came from the Earth
8:05:34Vein area to install the formation for
8:05:36themselves. Even the lowest level of the
8:05:38golden killing formation took half an
8:05:40hour to prepare. Therefore, as the host,
8:05:42I should definitely treat them to a
8:05:44meal. Next, the two went inside. Han
8:05:47Xian sat in a chair drinking wine while
8:05:49waiting for her meal. His eyes would
8:05:51occasionally glance at Wong Wong and the
8:05:53guinea fowl. His eyes revealed a longing
8:05:55for the barbecue. This terrified them
8:05:58both as if they had encountered their
8:05:59natural enemy. They all huddled in the
8:06:02corner, their eyes filled with fear.
8:06:04Fortunately, although Han Xen has a
8:06:06somewhat eccentric temper, she is not
8:06:08crazy. There was nothing excessive. A
8:06:10moment later, Su Chongqing brought the
8:06:12prepared food to the table. They are all
8:06:14homestyle dishes. Stir-fried eggs, spicy
8:06:17stir-fried cabbage, and the like. The
8:06:20only difference is that it contains a
8:06:21rich spiritual energy. Han X and watched
8:06:24this unfold and couldn't help but say
8:06:27tsk.
8:06:28No wonder you're a spirit farmer. The
8:06:30second grade spirit rice that's all the
8:06:32rage outside. You can have as much as
8:06:34you want here. Su Chongqing said
8:06:36confidently. If even Lingong can't get
8:06:39enough to eat, then you people can
8:06:40forget about getting enough to eat.
8:06:43That's true. Hanxen agreed
8:06:44wholeheartedly. The two then ate and
8:06:46chatted. They also became more familiar
8:06:48with each other. Half an hour later,
8:06:51after we had eaten and drunk our fill,
8:06:53it was already past half an hour. Han
8:06:55Xen took a big sip of second grade
8:06:57spirit rice wine, and after showing a
8:06:59satisfied expression, said, "The golden
8:07:02killing array is ultimately a low-level
8:07:04array. If you can gather 1,000 mid-grade
8:07:07spirit stones and find the cores of
8:07:09monsters with five different attributes,
8:07:11I can help you install a highle array."
8:07:13Su Chongqing was washing dishes in the
8:07:15kitchen when he heard this and asked
8:07:17loudly, "What kind of advanced
8:07:18formation?" Han Xian replied, "It's
8:07:21called the five elements and four
8:07:22seasons array. As long as there are
8:07:24enough spirit stones, it can run
8:07:26continuously throughout the year, so
8:07:28there's no need to worry about it
8:07:29anymore." In the core of the spirit
8:07:31field, many foundation establishment
8:07:33stage spirit farmers install this kind
8:07:35of formation. As long as you replace the
8:07:38spirit stones periodically, it should
8:07:40last for 10 years without any problems.
8:07:42After all, this is a highle formation.
8:07:441,000 mid-grade spirit stones and
8:07:47monster cores of five different
8:07:48attributes. Such Chanqing frowned
8:07:50slightly. Not to mention how long it
8:07:52would take to collect those 1,000
8:07:54mid-grade spirit stones. Five types of
8:07:57monster cores. That sounds
8:07:58extraordinary. It doesn't feel like
8:07:59something I should be concerned about
8:08:01right now. I'm leaving. At this moment,
8:08:03Hanxen got up and walked outside. Su
8:08:06Chonqing quickly put down his chopsticks
8:08:08and then personally saw him out the
8:08:10door. The snow was still falling heavily
8:08:12outside, showing no signs of stopping.
8:08:14Han Xen staggered to the open space,
8:08:17then took out a valuable black shuttle.
8:08:19As soon as she stepped on it, it took
8:08:21off and instantly rose into the sky.
8:08:23Without saying a word, the person
8:08:25disappeared into the horizon in the
8:08:27blink of an eye. Su Chongqing withdrew
8:08:29his gaze and then looked at the spirit
8:08:31field where the low-level golden killing
8:08:33array had been installed. He pondered to
8:08:35himself, "Now we have the array. We
8:08:37don't lack resources and even our spells
8:08:40are at the maximum level. The only
8:08:42shortcoming is our cultivation realm.
8:08:44This spring, I must break through to the
8:08:46foundation establishment stage. Chapter
8:08:4856, Han Sue came to borrow rice. One
8:08:51must be realistic in life. Chapter 56.
8:08:54Han Sue comes to borrow rice. One must
8:08:56be realistic in life. Cold and warm
8:08:58grass requires summer planting. After en
8:09:01and yang are balanced, it becomes a
8:09:03inyong herb with a single plant worth
8:09:06approximately five mid-grade spirit
8:09:08stones. Centipede vine. A single plant
8:09:11can cover an entire spirit field and its
8:09:13fruit is sufficient for alchemy with a
8:09:15total value of approximately 30 mg-grade
8:09:17spirit stones. Fourleaf clover. One leaf
8:09:21is inferior, two leaves are good, three
8:09:23leaves are excellent, and four leaves
8:09:25are superb. A single superb herb costs
8:09:27about three low-grade spirit stones.
8:09:30Such Chanqing laid back in the chair,
8:09:32holding the records of spirit fields in
8:09:34his hands. After reading through the
8:09:36materials for the past few days, he has
8:09:38come to understand Lingian better and
8:09:40better. Although I still lack
8:09:42experience, I am no longer a complete
8:09:44novice. Woof woof. At this moment, Wong
8:09:47Wong barked towards the direction of the
8:09:48Pattyfield ridge. Su Chongqing looked up
8:09:51and saw someone approaching. When the
8:09:53other person got closer, it was a
8:09:55familiar face. Who? Han Su. Senior
8:09:58brother, I've arrived. Han Su said with
8:10:00a smile. Su Chongqing stood up from his
8:10:02chair and went to greet him. Still so
8:10:05fast. Han Su said with a smile. Since my
8:10:08senior brother is looking for me, I must
8:10:10come as soon as possible. Su Chongqing
8:10:12pointed to the frozen spirit field and
8:10:14said, I just learned that turning over
8:10:16the soil when the temperature is low can
8:10:18dig out the insect eggs inside and
8:10:20freeze them to death. Although there is
8:10:22a low-level formation called the Golden
8:10:24Killing Formation to kill insects, but
8:10:26save money where you can. After all,
8:10:29each activation consumes spirit stones
8:10:31and gold spirit power. This will cause
8:10:34wear and tear, especially on spirit
8:10:36artifacts buried in the ground. Taking
8:10:38action now will not only freeze the
8:10:40insect eggs, but also loosen the soil in
8:10:43advance. This can be described as
8:10:45killing two birds with one stone. Okay,
8:10:48Hanu didn't waste any words and
8:10:49decisively took off his shoes. The
8:10:52moment my feet touched the frozen
8:10:53ground, I immediately started shivering.
8:10:56Just like how the wood spirit root has a
8:10:58very difficult time in the summer, earth
8:11:00spirit roots are afraid of absorbing
8:11:02earth energy barefoot in winter because
8:11:04it is easy to inhale cold and dampness
8:11:06into the body, thus causing damage. Last
8:11:09year, he had to go back and rest for
8:11:11several days for the same reason.
8:11:13Fortunately, after a year of hard work
8:11:15in particular, they continuously
8:11:17obtained second grade spirit rice from
8:11:19Such Chongqing. His strength has already
8:11:21broken through to the mid-stage ofQi
8:11:23refining. Even the earthguiding
8:11:25technique has reached the second level.
8:11:27Not only is its ability to withstand
8:11:29pressure enhanced, physical fitness has
8:11:32also improved slightly now. Although
8:11:34they still fear the cold air, they are
8:11:36not as miserable as before. Su Chaning
8:11:39suddenly remembered something and
8:11:40quickly reminded him. The raised area in
8:11:42the middle of the spirit field is the
8:11:44core of a low-level formation. Don't
8:11:46damage it. Han Su paused for a moment,
8:11:49then nodded vigorously. Okay, Junior
8:11:51brother will remember. To my utter
8:11:53surprise, senior brother Sue actually
8:11:55installed an array. It's important to
8:11:57know that many spiritual farmers who
8:11:59have been with the spiritual field for
8:12:01several years cannot achieve this. As
8:12:03expected, he's the only person I haven't
8:12:05misjudged. Immediately, Hanu activated
8:12:08the second level of the earth guiding
8:12:10technique. Bang! Bang! Bang! As the
8:12:13ground continued to tremble, the frozen
8:12:15black soil cracked. The pent up chilling
8:12:18energy burst forth. Han Su drew upon the
8:12:21earth's energy while simultaneously
8:12:23inhaling it into his body. Instantly,
8:12:25his previously normal yellow face turned
8:12:28pale. A faint chill emanated from his
8:12:30body. Su Chongqing observed this and
8:12:32thought to himself, "This kid has gotten
8:12:34stronger." Compared to the disarray of
8:12:37the first time, I was much calmer the
8:12:39second time. Although Han Su needed to
8:12:41rest from time to time during the
8:12:42following period, however, the frequency
8:12:45of these occurrences has decreased. It
8:12:47was done in half an hour. Su Chanqing
8:12:49offered the other party a cup of second
8:12:51grade spirit rice wine to warm him up
8:12:53and then said, "Just like before, we
8:12:56will sign a spirit talisman contract
8:12:58once a quarter." After drinking the
8:13:00spirit rice wine, Han Su, who was
8:13:02shivering slightly, immediately felt
8:13:04warm. The lingering cold energy in his
8:13:07body actually began to dissipate.
8:13:09Therefore, he did not take the talisman
8:13:11when it was handed to him. Such Chonqing
8:13:14asked puzzled. Han Su hesitated for a
8:13:16moment, then took a deep breath. Senior
8:13:19brother, the formal disciple competition
8:13:21will be held in another year. I want to
8:13:23give it a try. Su Chonqing shrugged. I
8:13:26know. Didn't we talk about it last time?
8:13:28Hanu shook his head, then asked
8:13:30nervously. What I mean is, could we
8:13:32borrow some spirit rice and this spirit
8:13:34rice wine? Su Chongqing frowned
8:13:36slightly, looking somewhat hesitant.
8:13:38This? Hansu quickly said, "You may not
8:13:41know, but the proportion of spirit rice
8:13:44has been reduced again." During the
8:13:45Chinese New Year, the ratio of premium
8:13:48rice to premium brand is 1:8. Now, the
8:13:51ratio has actually dropped to 1:5. As
8:13:53for the second grade spirit rice, the
8:13:55ratio is an even more terrifying 1
8:13:57minute and 1.3 seconds. Su Chongqing was
8:14:01oblivious to what was happening outside,
8:14:03unaware of how crazy things were going
8:14:05on outside. Farmers Heart Society,
8:14:07Talisman Masters Association, Pill
8:14:09Alliance, Spiritual Weapon Workshop,
8:14:11Array Masters. These five major forces
8:14:14are no longer putting on a show. They're
8:14:16forcing you to buy at exorbitant prices.
8:14:19Such Chongqing asked non-committally,
8:14:20"So," Han Su said earnestly. "I'll
8:14:23borrow some spirit rice and spirit rice
8:14:25wine from you, Junior Brother, and you
8:14:27can loosen the soil for free this year."
8:14:30Of course, the reason it was free was
8:14:31mainly because of the spirit rice
8:14:33obtained from Such Chongqing. All
8:14:35qualities are at the highest level,
8:14:37which means they are top quality. It
8:14:39contains a great deal of spiritual
8:14:41energy, which is very beneficial for
8:14:43cultivation. Su Chongqing looked into
8:14:45the other person's cautious yet sincere
8:14:47eyes for a while before asking, "How
8:14:49much do you want to borrow?" Han
8:14:51Su<unk>s eyes lit up, and he said
8:14:52excitedly, "500 caddies of second grade
8:14:55spirit rice and 50 caddies of this
8:14:57spirit rice wine." Upon hearing this, Su
8:15:00Choning frowned again. You may not know,
8:15:02but although I produce more than 2,000
8:15:04gene every quarter, my inventory is not
8:15:07much. Huh? Hanu was taken aback. Such
8:15:10Chanqing asked. You should know Liing by
8:15:13right? Han Su nodded subconsciously. I
8:15:15know the genius with three spiritual
8:15:18roots from the Imperial Water Pavilion.
8:15:20Su Chongqing spread his hands and said
8:15:22helplessly. I have to provide Lee Ling
8:15:24by with several hundred catties of
8:15:26second grade spirit rice every quarter,
8:15:28so I really can't come up with 500
8:15:30caddies. Han Su gasped for breath.
8:15:33Before this, he had considered many
8:15:35possibilities. I had anticipated all
8:15:38sorts of excuses, but I never dreamed
8:15:40that senior brother Su would have a
8:15:42connection with a genius like Leing.
8:15:44That's a core disciple of the Imperial
8:15:46Water Pavilion, one of the most
8:15:47influential figures in the entire
8:15:49Daunting Immortal sect. I heard that I'm
8:15:52about to break through to the Golden
8:15:53Corp stage. To be honest, I had a tiny
8:15:56bit of disbelief in my heart. Su
8:15:58Chongqing seemed to sense the other
8:15:59party's suspicion and immediately said,
8:16:02"There's no need for me to lie to you
8:16:03about this." Upon hearing this, Han Su
8:16:06quickly waved his hand. "No, no, no.
8:16:09Junior brother believes me. Believe it
8:16:11or not, it doesn't matter. I can't come
8:16:13up with 500 gene anyway. Such Chonqing
8:16:16didn't care at all. After a moment of
8:16:17hesitation, Han Su asked, "How many
8:16:20kilograms can you produce now?" Su
8:16:22Chongqing thought for a moment and said,
8:16:24"250 gene." Having lived two lives, he
8:16:27knows all too well what it means to be
8:16:29grateful for a small favor, but
8:16:31resentful of a large one. Today, they
8:16:33borrowed 500 gene, 250 caddies. Maybe
8:16:36next time it will be 1,000 gene, 500
8:16:39caddies. If you refuse again later, you
8:16:41might very well end up arguing with
8:16:43them. 250 gene is fine, too. Hanu was
8:16:46already mentally prepared. Such
8:16:48Chongqing immediately said, "This 250
8:16:51gene is not a one-time payment. First
8:16:54100 gene will be given to my junior
8:16:56brother, and the other 150 gene will be
8:16:58given after the spring season ends."
8:17:00Although Han Su was somewhat surprised,
8:17:02he was still moved to tears and said,
8:17:05"It is already an immense favor that my
8:17:07senior brother is willing to lend me his
8:17:09money." Su Chongqing added, "The spirit
8:17:12rice wine is less than 50 gene, at most
8:17:1420 gene. No problem." Han Su is already
8:17:17satisfied. Many people outside want to
8:17:19borrow it, but can't. They had no choice
8:17:22but to bite the bullet and buy the
8:17:23expensive Lingi rice. Immediately, Su
8:17:26Chongqing Len Han Su 100 gene of second
8:17:28grade spirit rice and 20 gene of second
8:17:31grade spirit rice wine. However, a
8:17:33spiritual talisman contract was signed
8:17:35to borrow 250 gene of second grade
8:17:38spiritual rice and 20 gene of second
8:17:40grade spiritual rice wine. Doing so
8:17:42might hurt Han Su<unk>s feelings, but Su
8:17:44Chongqing felt it was necessary. After
8:17:47all, one has to be realistic. Chapter
8:17:4957, Breakthrough to Foundation
8:17:51Establishment stage, lifespan of 400
8:17:54years. Chapter 57. Breakthrough to
8:17:56foundation establishment stage. Lifespan
8:17:59of 400 years. Liuan temperatures are
8:18:01rising. Everything is coming back to
8:18:03life. Su Chongqing stood on the edge of
8:18:06the field, closing his eyes to carefully
8:18:08feel the sensation. The wood elemental
8:18:10energy that roams between heaven and
8:18:12earth continuously increases over time.
8:18:15The wood elemental root within the body
8:18:17is releasing signals of hunger and
8:18:19thirst. Suddenly, he opened his eyes. He
8:18:22quickly took out the spring seedling
8:18:24from the small storage bag. One side was
8:18:26enveloped with wood elemental power.
8:18:28They threw one side into the spirit
8:18:30field. Immediately afterwards, he
8:18:32activated the wood's spirit entanglement
8:18:34technique. Control all the spring
8:18:36seedlings, then burrow them into the
8:18:38black soil. Time passed second by
8:18:40second, and the east gradually
8:18:42brightened. Instantly, the already
8:18:44abundant with elemental energy in the
8:18:46world. This is where the climax begins.
8:18:49The spiritual tide has arrived. The
8:18:51seedlings of spiritual plants in the
8:18:53spiritual field are growing at a speed
8:18:55visible to the naked eye. Such Chongqing
8:18:58immediately sat cross-legged. First, he
8:19:00gulped down a mouthful of second grade
8:19:02spirit rice wine. Then, he circulated
8:19:04the fifth level of the evergreen
8:19:06technique. Instantly, his body
8:19:08transformed into a vortex. It
8:19:10continuously devours the surrounding
8:19:12with elemental energy. Cultivation speed
8:19:15plus 50%. Spiritual energy absorption
8:19:18speed plus 20%. The combined effect of
8:19:21the two effects, he already possessed
8:19:23seven strands of spiritual power. With a
8:19:26hiss, it split into eight. They travel
8:19:28inside the body, expelling excess
8:19:30impurities. Gradually, the whole person
8:19:33became clean and pure inside and out. It
8:19:36even emits a faint fragrance. This
8:19:38prompted Wong Wong and the guinea foul
8:19:40to approach them. They seemed to know
8:19:42their owner was at a crucial moment, so
8:19:44they didn't cause any trouble. Instead,
8:19:46they stayed nearby, absorbing the
8:19:48fragrance and spiritual energy emanating
8:19:51from the air. Before long, the hair on
8:19:53its body became even smoother. One by
8:19:56one, they entered a state of deep
8:19:58concentration. Half asleep, half asleep,
8:20:01confused and clueless. As time passed,
8:20:03the east brightened. A brilliant golden
8:20:06light broke through the dawn, dispelling
8:20:08all the cold and darkness. At that very
8:20:10moment, Su Chonqing generated his ninth
8:20:13spiritual power. As everyone knows, nine
8:20:16streams of spiritual energy signify the
8:20:18completion of chi refining. Logically,
8:20:20it should stop. But it didn't stop.
8:20:23Instead, it escalated further. They
8:20:25huddled together and stopped wandering.
8:20:27Instead, it follows the route provided
8:20:29by the evergreen manual. First, the
8:20:32microcosmic orbit circulates, allowing
8:20:34the ren and doom meridians to flow
8:20:36smoothly. After reaching 49 laps, begin
8:20:39circulating the body's chi and blood.
8:20:42Chi and blood circulate in the 12
8:20:44meridians and the eight extraordinary
8:20:45meridians. Such Chanqing heard the sound
8:20:48of blood flowing through continuous
8:20:50circulation, transportation, and
8:20:52accumulation. After reaching 81 laps,
8:20:55the nine streams of spiritual energy
8:20:57merged into one, transforming into a
8:21:00torrent that plunged downwards. With a
8:21:02pop, the sealed cheesec burst open. The
8:21:05innate vital energy stored inside surged
8:21:08out like a floodgate being opened.
8:21:10Suddenly, Su Chongqing felt as if he had
8:21:12returned to the fetal stage. It is
8:21:14exceptionally comfortable, relaxing,
8:21:17warm, and safe. All kinds of damage and
8:21:19defects are being repaired one by one.
8:21:21At this moment, the body undergoes a
8:21:24second growth and transformation. After
8:21:26an unknown amount of time, Su Chongqing
8:21:28opened his eyes. His eyes were like
8:21:30lightning, clear as a spring. Her skin
8:21:33is smooth and delicate. Su Chongqing was
8:21:35incredulous. I thought I would stop
8:21:37after reaching theqi refining stage, but
8:21:40I didn't expect to open my chi seed
8:21:41directly and break through to the
8:21:43foundation establishment stage. One year
8:21:46on the periphery, two years on the core.
8:21:48In 3 years, he progressed from the early
8:21:50stage ofqi refining to the early stage
8:21:53of foundation establishment. While this
8:21:55speed may seem fast, it can't compare to
8:21:57those geniuses who reached the
8:21:59foundation establishment stage in just
8:22:01one year. For example, Leingai, a genius
8:22:04with three spiritual roots. This person
8:22:06broke through from theqi refining stage
8:22:08to the foundation establishment stage in
8:22:11just one year. But to say it slow, many
8:22:13people who have joined Linton haven't
8:22:15made any breakthroughs even after 3 or 4
8:22:17years. If you get stuck in the late or
8:22:20perfect stage ofQi refining, you'll
8:22:22eventually have to exhaust your savings
8:22:24to buy a foundation establishment pill.
8:22:26Su Chongqing mastered the five layer
8:22:28evergreen technique and expert level
8:22:30Lingi wine. Large quantities of grade
8:22:32two spirit rice and even mutated spirit
8:22:35rice. The cultivation speed was raised
8:22:37to the third tier. Without a system, one
8:22:40might become a rogue cultivator. It will
8:22:42absolutely take 5 to 10 years to break
8:22:44through. After all, resources are the
8:22:46biggest problem. Su Chongqing suddenly
8:22:49realized the range of his perception of
8:22:51spiritual plants. It was actually
8:22:53increased from 20hang to 66 m and then
8:22:56to 50hang. And it is more detailed and
8:22:58clearer. It's like someone who is
8:23:00nearsighted and has a stigmatism
8:23:02suddenly becoming 5.0 in both eyes. And
8:23:05there are even more surprises when you
8:23:07activate the with spirit entanglement
8:23:09technique. Originally, he was in the
8:23:11late stage of chi refining and could
8:23:13control 50 black iron vines. Upon
8:23:15reaching the initial stage of foundation
8:23:17building, the number doubled, reaching a
8:23:19full 100. The biggest change in fact is
8:23:23in spiritual power. It began to liquefy.
8:23:26Although it has been compressed from
8:23:27nine drops to one drop, the quality is
8:23:30even better than before. After sensing
8:23:32the changes in his body, Su Chongqing
8:23:34finally looked at the attribute panel.
8:23:36Such Chonqing, male, 20 years old.
8:23:39Remaining lifespan 121,250
8:23:43days. Wood spirit root early stage of
8:23:45foundation building. Effect one,
8:23:48extraordinary physical condition. Effect
8:23:50two, external projection of spiritual
8:23:52awareness. Effect three, cultivation
8:23:55speed plus 10%. Effect four, recovery
8:23:58speed plus 10%. Evergreen technique
8:24:01level five. Lingi wine expert wood
8:24:04spirit entanglement third layer.
8:24:07Ironwood armor technique level four.
8:24:10Before we knew it, it was the next day.
8:24:12Su Choning was still on the edge of the
8:24:14field. But this time, he wasn't just
8:24:16cultivating. Still waiting for someone.
8:24:18Who? Binger. I made an appointment with
8:24:20them to come over today, even though
8:24:22it's raining. But unexpectedly, when the
8:24:24flying paper cranes got close, Su
8:24:27Chongqing discovered that it wasn't just
8:24:28one person who arrived, but two. One of
8:24:31them is a woman. The other one was also
8:24:33a woman. On the left is the short and
8:24:35young Biling. The person on the right is
8:24:37taller and has a more mature appearance.
8:24:39She has a better figure. No, to be
8:24:42precise, it's even hotter. Her breasts
8:24:44were prominent and her buttocks were
8:24:46curvy with her arms exposed. There is a
8:24:48beauty mark on the lower left corner of
8:24:50her red lips. Judging from their attire,
8:24:53they are both formal disciples. However,
8:24:55the design on his chest was not of the
8:24:57Imperial Water Pavilion, but rather a
8:24:59three-legged alchemy furnace. Su
8:25:01Chongqing asked curiously, "And who is
8:25:03this?" Binger smiled and said, "Didn't I
8:25:06say last time that my sister was coming
8:25:08back from the eastern region?" Su
8:25:10Chongqing suddenly realized, "This is
8:25:12your sister." Binger nodded. This is my
8:25:15sister Baijuer from the alchemy
8:25:17pavilion. Baiju looked su Chongqing up
8:25:19and down. There was a reason she came
8:25:21along. As everyone knows, Lingong has no
8:25:24shortage of Ling Rice. This time, in
8:25:26order to stand out in the formal
8:25:28disciple competition, he specifically
8:25:30followed his sister, hoping to find a
8:25:32spiritual farmer to cooperate with.
8:25:34After all, anyone who buys rice from
8:25:36Nongshim now is a fool. Unless you're
8:25:39very rich, you simply can't afford it.
8:25:41On by Linger's side, Su Chongqing had a
8:25:43very good reputation. One, never delay
8:25:46payment of wages. Second, never
8:25:48underestimate her. Three, give them food
8:25:50occasionally. Four, give them food
8:25:52occasionally. Five, give them food
8:25:55occasionally. Fellow Daist by Su
8:25:57Chongqing cupped his hands in greeting.
8:25:59Bhuer went straight to the point. Fellow
8:26:01Daist Sue, which formal disciple are you
8:26:04collaborating with? Su Chan paused, then
8:26:07asked in confusion, "Cooperation? What
8:26:10kind of cooperation? Baiju raised an
8:26:12eyebrow. It means providing spirit rice.
8:26:15Does lending it to someone else count?
8:26:17Su Chongqing thought of Hansu. Baihu
8:26:19shook her head and said, "It doesn't
8:26:21count." Su Chongqing shrugged. "That
8:26:24means there isn't one." Bhuer<unk>'s
8:26:26eyes lit up. "Perhaps we can cooperate
8:26:28at this moment." Su Chongqing changed
8:26:31the subject. "There are no formal
8:26:32disciples, but there is one core
8:26:34disciple. Maybe. Baijuer paused,
8:26:37stunned. Binger's eyes widened in
8:26:39disbelief as if she had misheard. Su
8:26:42Chongqing smiled slightly. To be honest,
8:26:44I've actually been cooperating with Lee
8:26:46Ling by the genius with three spiritual
8:26:48roots from the Imperial Water Pavilion
8:26:50and have been supplying him with second
8:26:52grade spiritual rice for a long time.
8:26:54Chapter 58. Arriving at the forging
8:26:57peak, heading to the marketplace for
8:26:58loose cultivators. Chapter 58. Arriving
8:27:01at the forging peak. Han Su returns to
8:27:03the earth vein resting place at the
8:27:05loose cultivator market. Because there
8:27:07was no expression on his face, it was
8:27:09impossible to tell whether he was sad or
8:27:12happy. Someone who knew them nearby
8:27:14couldn't help but ask, "Did you manage
8:27:16to borrow the rice?" Han Su glanced at
8:27:18the other person, then shook his head.
8:27:20Didn't manage to borrow it? Really? The
8:27:23price of spiritual rice is skyrocketing
8:27:25right now. How could I possibly borrow
8:27:27it? It seems that the senior brother su
8:27:29praise everyday is nothing special.
8:27:32Shall we go to the cultivator market
8:27:33again in a few days? Despite the mocking
8:27:36voices around him, Han Su remained
8:27:38expressionless. He felt absolutely no
8:27:40emotion. He clearly borrowed rice, but
8:27:43he wouldn't admit it. Why? Because these
8:27:45guys are unreliable. If we admit it, we
8:27:48will face two consequences. First, these
8:27:50guys will leak the information. Second,
8:27:53it doesn't matter if something happens
8:27:54to me, but it will implicate senior
8:27:56brother Sue. However, the matter of
8:27:58going to the market for unaffiliated
8:28:00cultivators served as a reminder to Han
8:28:02Su. He walked to the other side. After
8:28:05everyone was alone nearby, he
8:28:06immediately took out a communication
8:28:08talisman from his small storage bag.
8:28:10Meanwhile, at the core of the spirit
8:28:12field, Binger was eating a roasted sweet
8:28:15potato after casting the minor cloud
8:28:17rain technique. At this moment, the
8:28:19elder sister Baihuer showed a
8:28:21disappointed expression and then asked,
8:28:23"So, it seems I can't get second grade
8:28:25spirit rice from you." Su Chongqing
8:28:27nodded slightly. "Yes." Baiju instantly
8:28:30lost her patience and said, "There's
8:28:32nothing to talk about, sister.
8:28:34Let's<unk> go. That's just my sister's
8:28:36personality. Let's go." Binger said a
8:28:38little embarrassed. Such Chonqing didn't
8:28:40seem to care much about this. It took
8:28:42Han Su nearly 3 years to earn a sliver
8:28:45of trust, but they only managed to
8:28:47borrow 250 gene of second grade
8:28:49spiritual rice. This white pearl is a
8:28:51stranger. I am neither familiar with nor
8:28:53understand it. Why should we cooperate
8:28:55on a whim? In case the news leaks out,
8:28:58the interactions between Lingome were
8:29:00manageable. If this attracts the
8:29:02attention of Nang, things could get very
8:29:04bad. When Su Chongqing first went to the
8:29:06Red Maple Valley Market, we've already
8:29:08witnessed just how doineering this force
8:29:10is. either cooperate, either suppress
8:29:13them. He doesn't want to be bothered
8:29:14every day. At that moment, a vibration
8:29:17came from the storage bag. Seeing the B
8:29:19sisters fly away, Su Chongqing took out
8:29:22a communication talisman from his small
8:29:24storage bag. Senior brother Sue, is
8:29:26there anything else? Junior brother, I'm
8:29:28going to the cultivator market. Is there
8:29:30anything you need to buy, senior
8:29:32brother? The marketplace for
8:29:33unaffiliated cultivators. Yes, that's
8:29:36the place where I bought spells for my
8:29:38senior brother before. Can you confirm a
8:29:40time? I'll go with you. If he hadn't
8:29:42reached the foundation establishment
8:29:43stage, Su Chonqing definitely wouldn't
8:29:46want to go out. The main problem is that
8:29:48I'm not confident. But things are
8:29:49different now. Our strength has
8:29:51improved. It would be nice to go and
8:29:53take a look over there. Soon, the two
8:29:55set a time. Tomorrow, Su Chongqing will
8:29:58go and meet up with Han Su. Next, he sat
8:30:01cross-legged on the edge of the field to
8:30:03absorb the wood elemental energy. It
8:30:05must be said that during theqi refining
8:30:07stage, the five layer evergreen
8:30:09technique was indeed incredibly
8:30:11effective. Once one reaches the
8:30:12foundation establishment stage,
8:30:14especially after opening the chi sea.
8:30:16They discovered that even with a large
8:30:18amount of wood elemental energy,
8:30:20progress was extremely slow. That
8:30:22exhilarating feeling disappeared.
8:30:24Instead, there is unsatisfied desire.
8:30:27Clearly, low-level cultivation
8:30:29techniques are no longer sufficient to
8:30:31meet the needs of the foundation
8:30:33establishment stage. Time flew by and it
8:30:35was the morning of the next day. After
8:30:37finishing his cultivation, Su Chongqing
8:30:40cooked for Wong Wong and the guinea
8:30:41fowl, then rode away on a flying paper
8:30:44crane. Half an hour later, they arrived
8:30:46near the spiral pit of the earth's
8:30:48veins. At a glance, they saw Han Su
8:30:50waiting on the ground. Junior brother Su
8:30:53Chongqing lowered the flying paper
8:30:55crane. Han Su looked up and was
8:30:57immediately surprised. Senior brother
8:30:59already has flying paper cranes. Such
8:31:01Chongqing smiled and said, "We can't
8:31:04just walk here without a means of
8:31:05transportation." Han Su was extremely
8:31:08embarrassed upon hearing this and
8:31:09scratched his head sheepishly. Su
8:31:11Chonqing asked, "How do we get to the
8:31:13market for unaffiliated cultivators?"
8:31:16Han Su pointed in the direction of
8:31:18weapon forging peak and said, "Let's go
8:31:20up there and board the flying sword
8:31:22first." Upon hearing the word ride, Su
8:31:25Chongqing felt as if he had returned to
8:31:27his previous life. He immediately became
8:31:29very interested. He immediately took Han
8:31:32Su into the air and headed towards
8:31:34Forging Peak. A moment later, a huge
8:31:36mountain peak appeared in front of them,
8:31:38floating in the air. But surprisingly,
8:31:40it is not made of stone, trees, or soil.
8:31:44It's all metal from top to bottom. It's
8:31:46high, at least 100 ft tall. It is at
8:31:48least several hundred feet long. It
8:31:50floated in the air like a majestic
8:31:52mountain. Humans are as insignificant as
8:31:54ants in its presence. In addition, it
8:31:57exudes a strong golden spiritual energy.
8:32:00This made Su Chongqing very
8:32:02uncomfortable and he even felt a sense
8:32:04of resistance. Hanu sensed something was
8:32:06wrong and quickly asked with concern. Is
8:32:09seeing your brother all right? Such
8:32:10Chanqing took a deep breath. No, it's
8:32:13because it's my first time here, so I'm
8:32:15under a lot of pressure. Hansu nodded
8:32:17slightly. I felt the same way when I
8:32:19first came here. Fortunately, the Earth
8:32:22elemental route itself has a strong
8:32:24ability to withstand pressure. They
8:32:26gradually got used to it as the number
8:32:27of visits increased. The paper crane
8:32:30flew upwards and finally appeared in a
8:32:32square. It was very spacious and there
8:32:34were a lot of people. Many buildings
8:32:36over 100 meters high are being
8:32:38constructed in places like Lingian,
8:32:40Lingo Valley, and Hong Valley. The most
8:32:43common modes of transportation I saw
8:32:44were flying paper cranes and land-based
8:32:47mythical beasts. But here, Such
8:32:49Chongqing looked around. I saw shuttles,
8:32:51airships, and spaceships. But the most
8:32:54numerous were golden flying swords. They
8:32:56were incredibly large, comparable to the
8:32:58deck of a spaceship. People come and go,
8:33:01constantly weaving through these 100
8:33:03meter high buildings. Han Su pointed to
8:33:05a building to the left and said, "To get
8:33:08to the market for scattered cultivators,
8:33:10we need to take the giant flying sword
8:33:11from the sword pavilion first." Su
8:33:14Chongqing was utterly astonished. I
8:33:16thought the official disciples here
8:33:17spent all their time forging various
8:33:19magical artifacts, but I never expected
8:33:22them to be flying swords. Han Su
8:33:24explained, "Every formal disciple of the
8:33:26weapon forging peak is an apprentice.
8:33:28Unless they have a cultivation family
8:33:30supporting them or are valued by an
8:33:32immortal master, otherwise before
8:33:34reaching the foundation establishment
8:33:36stage, points are earned through these
8:33:38kinds of tasks." Such Chaning suddenly
8:33:40realized, "I see." The two then arrived
8:33:43at a sword pavilion. There are two
8:33:44payment methods for taking the ride.
8:33:46either deduct points, either consume
8:33:49spirit stones, but it's not calculated
8:33:51by distance, it's calculated by time. It
8:33:54takes 1 hour to get from the Daunting
8:33:55immortal sect to the Sonichcho market.
8:33:58Minus 10 points per round trip or minus
8:34:0020 low-grade spirit stones. Su Chonqing
8:34:03and Han Su chose to spend spirit stones
8:34:06and then boarded a giant flying sword.
8:34:08There is a formation eye at the hilt of
8:34:10the sword where a mid-grade spirit stone
8:34:12floats. The blade is engraved with
8:34:14numerous patterns that occasionally
8:34:16flash. At the tip of the sword guarded a
8:34:19male disciple with a gold spiritual
8:34:21route. Everyone who comes up gets a
8:34:23sharp look in their eyes. They say
8:34:24enemies often meet on a narrow road.
8:34:27Such Chongqing and Han Sugong sat
8:34:29cross-legged. Suddenly, Zangir led three
8:34:32people up the stairs. It seems they are
8:34:34also heading to the Sono market. Jeang
8:34:36was quite surprised when he saw Su
8:34:38Chongqing. The two of them looked at
8:34:39each other. No one spoke at first. They
8:34:42just stared at each other blankly. A few
8:34:44seconds later, Jang Air said with a
8:34:46playful expression, JJ brother Su, I
8:34:48didn't expect to run into you here. Su
8:34:51Chonqing said calmly, "Fellow Dist Jang,
8:34:54we're<unk> in the same boat, huh?"
8:34:56Jangir was stunned for a moment. Then
8:34:58his face turned very ugly. In the past,
8:35:01when the other party met him, they would
8:35:02respectfully call him senior brother.
8:35:05Now they've actually stopped shouting.
8:35:07Chapter 59. Golden Core. Master Wong.
8:35:09Exchanging spirit rice for spirit
8:35:11stones. Chapter 59. Golden core. Master
8:35:14Wong. Exchanging spirit rice for spirit
8:35:17stones. As time passed, more and more
8:35:19disciples came up. There are both men
8:35:21and women. It has all kinds of spiritual
8:35:23roots. After all, there are only two
8:35:26ways to leave the Ding immortal sect. I
8:35:29cross-domain teleportation array. Two.
8:35:32Long-d distanceance flying magical
8:35:33artifacts or magical implements. For the
8:35:36vast majority of formal disciples,
8:35:38teleportation arrays are too expensive.
8:35:40Each activation requires at least one
8:35:42mid-grade spirit stone. Therefore,
8:35:45flying artifacts became the preferred
8:35:46choice. Compared to teleportation
8:35:48arrays, it offers excellent value for
8:35:51money. It's not that flying paper cranes
8:35:53and land-based mythical beasts are no
8:35:55good, but they're too slow. For the same
8:35:57distance, a flying artifact only takes
8:35:59an hour. However, flying paper cranes
8:36:02and land-based mythical beasts require
8:36:04at least 5 hours. Anyone would know how
8:36:06to choose. Senior brotherhang, who's
8:36:09that kid? Also a jin farmer. He doesn't
8:36:11seem to respect you very much. He Jeang
8:36:14squinted, staring intently at Su
8:36:16Chongqing<unk>ing back. He didn't say
8:36:18anything more after hearing what the
8:36:20people around him said. He merely gave a
8:36:22meaningful cold smile. Suddenly, the
8:36:25giant flying sword beneath him shuddered
8:36:27violently. Immediately afterwards, the
8:36:29male disciple with the golden spiritual
8:36:31roots standing at the tip of the sword
8:36:33spoke up. "Fellow Dowists, the 1,145th
8:36:37giant flying sword is about to leave the
8:36:39sword pavilion. Please do not move, run,
8:36:42jump, or leave the area. Otherwise, you
8:36:45will be responsible for the
8:36:46consequences." Such Chongqing and Han Su
8:36:49exchanged a glance and immediately
8:36:51regained their composure. Soon, the
8:36:53vibrations emanating from the giant
8:36:55flying sword beneath them became
8:36:57increasingly noticeable. The stripes
8:36:59seemed to be infused with energy,
8:37:01lighting up one by one. Before long, the
8:37:04giant flying sword that had been parked
8:37:06slowly started moving. When they finally
8:37:08left the sword pavilion, they heard a
8:37:10whoosh sound. The giant flying sword
8:37:13instantly sliced through the sky for
8:37:14tens of thousands of meters. Like a
8:37:16golden streak of light, it sped forward
8:37:19at an extremely fast speed. Strangely,
8:37:22despite the high speed, no one was
8:37:24affected. There was not a breath of wind
8:37:26or any ripples. Such Chongqing observed
8:37:28this and thought to himself, "An array.
8:37:31Each giant flying sword should be like
8:37:32those flying shuttles, flying boats, and
8:37:35spaceships. It is equipped with various
8:37:37protective formations. After all, this
8:37:40is thousands of meters in the air. If an
8:37:42accident occurs, everyone will
8:37:43undoubtedly die. Therefore, there is no
8:37:46room for error." The giant flying sword
8:37:48moved as fast as lightning and as swift
8:37:50as thunder. Anything, including clouds
8:37:53and birds. Just a second ago, it was in
8:37:55front of us. The next second, it was
8:37:57left behind. Not long after, they
8:38:00encountered a flock of birds ahead,
8:38:02dense and numerous, resembling a large
8:38:04patch of dark clouds. Faced with this
8:38:07situation, the giant flying sword not
8:38:09only did not dodge, but instead charged
8:38:11straight at it. The hissing sound
8:38:13continued incessantly. Any bird that
8:38:15encountered it was utterly powerless
8:38:17against it and instantly turned into a
8:38:20bloody mist. Its far superior to flying
8:38:22paper cranes. Such Chongqing was
8:38:24shocked. An hour passes in the blink of
8:38:26an eye. The giant flying sword gradually
8:38:29slowed down. A small city appeared
8:38:31before them. In the very center of the
8:38:33city, there stands a towering tree. The
8:38:35height of the light alone is at least
8:38:37several thousand m. The branches and
8:38:39leaves are lush and green. You can see
8:38:41many birds and animals moving around
8:38:43inside. Han Su whispered, "Senior
8:38:46brother, we have arrived at the market
8:38:48town for rogue cultivators." Su
8:38:50Chongqing asked in surprise, "Is it this
8:38:52tree?" Han Su shook his head and said,
8:38:54"No, it's the entire city." "Huh?" Such
8:38:58Chongqing was quite surprised. Han Su
8:39:00explained, "The owner of this daing tree
8:39:02and this daing city is a golden elixir
8:39:05true person. His name is Wong Lin, and
8:39:08everyone respectfully calls him Master
8:39:10Wong. Everything here, especially the
8:39:12market town for independent cultivators,
8:39:14belongs to someone else. Upon hearing
8:39:16that he was a golden core cultivator,
8:39:18Such Chanqing began to look at him with
8:39:20new respect. After all, it's easy to be
8:39:23a rogue cultivator, as everyone has
8:39:25witnessed. Before long, the giant flying
8:39:28sword came to rest at a flying dock. At
8:39:30this moment, the male disciple with the
8:39:32golden spirit root said, "I will stay
8:39:34here for an hour. If you miss it, come
8:39:36back at this time tomorrow." All right.
8:39:39Thank you fellow Daist. Many people
8:39:41bowed and clasped their hands in thanks.
8:39:43Then go down from here, especially Su
8:39:45Chongqing, Han Su, and Jangir among
8:39:48others. After leaving the flight
8:39:50terminal, everyone stood at a fork in
8:39:52the road. The towering East China trees
8:39:54not far away exude a rich woody
8:39:57spiritual energy. Su Chonqing even felt
8:40:00that when the spiritual energy in the
8:40:02spiritual fields was insufficient, one
8:40:04could come here to cultivate. Han Su
8:40:06pointed to the left and said, "Senior
8:40:08brother, the main street of the Loose
8:40:10Cultivator Market is this way. Lead the
8:40:13way." Su Chongqing nodded. "When we
8:40:15arrived at the main street," Such
8:40:17Chongqing found it to be similar to the
8:40:18Red Maple Valley Market. The only
8:40:20difference is that the quality varies.
8:40:22Most of the items were of relatively low
8:40:24quality. These kinds of things wouldn't
8:40:26sell at the Red Maple Valley Market, but
8:40:29here in the market of the scattered
8:40:30cultivators in Daing City, quite a few
8:40:33people are buying things. Such Chanqing
8:40:35could understand. After all, independent
8:40:38cultivators and cultivation families
8:40:39from the outside world were inherently
8:40:41short of resources. It's good enough if
8:40:43there's anything to buy. However, the
8:40:45price is very strange. It's incredibly
8:40:48low. It's ridiculously high. For
8:40:50example, the ratio of first grade
8:40:52spiritual rice in the daunting immortal
8:40:54sect is 1:5, but here it's 1 col 7. It
8:40:58can be replaced with second grade
8:40:59spiritual rice, which is actually
8:41:01comparable to that of the daunting
8:41:03immortal sect. The ratio reaches 1
8:41:05minute and 1.4 seconds, which is only
8:41:080.1 more. Su Chongqing thought to
8:41:10himself, "Isn't this paradise to me?"
8:41:13Within the Donging immortal sect,
8:41:15because of the existence of the Nongshin
8:41:16Society, he dared not sell
8:41:18indiscriminately. But here, you don't
8:41:20have to be afraid. You can even do
8:41:22whatever you want. At this point, we
8:41:24arrived at a spirit rice trading point.
8:41:27Han Su immediately said, "Senior
8:41:29brother, I need to go in in exchange for
8:41:31some spirit rice. What about you? Su
8:41:33Chongqing shrugged. I'll just wander
8:41:35around. Okay, just call out with the
8:41:38communication talisman if you need
8:41:39anything. Hansu nodded and then walked
8:41:41towards the counter inside. Seeing this,
8:41:44Such Chanqing did not rush to sell the
8:41:46second grade spirit rice he had stored.
8:41:48Instead, they wandered around and found
8:41:50out the prices. There are more than one
8:41:52similar spirit rice trading point in the
8:41:55entire market of independent
8:41:56cultivators, but the prices were
8:41:58surprisingly consistent with no
8:42:00difference whatsoever. It seemed as if
8:42:02they had planned it in advance. That's
8:42:04actually normal considering the current
8:42:05price of Donging immortal sect is
8:42:07incredibly high. Many Lingong come here
8:42:10to sell their goods. If the price is
8:42:11different at each trading point, it will
8:42:13definitely cause chaos. This fellow
8:42:15Daist is clearly a disciple of an
8:42:17immortal sect. Suddenly, a middle-aged
8:42:20man blocked their way. This man was
8:42:22short and thin. He was wearing a long
8:42:24gown made of silk. There were obvious
8:42:26fluctuations in spiritual energy. He is
8:42:28clearly a cultivator. Such Chongqing
8:42:31raised an eyebrow non-committally.
8:42:32Something wrong? The middle-aged man
8:42:34smiled slightly. My name is Sunping, and
8:42:37I am the steward of a small cultivation
8:42:39family in Daing City. I wonder which
8:42:41immortal sect you belong to and whether
8:42:43you need any help. Su Chongqing asked
8:42:46calmly, "Is there anything wrong?"
8:42:48Suning paused for a moment, then
8:42:50continued to smile. "If you wish to
8:42:52offer something, I am willing to give it
8:42:53a try." Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
8:42:56narrowed his eyes, pondered for a
8:42:58moment, and then asked, "My name is Kai
8:43:00Coin. How did you know that I come from
8:43:02an immortal sect?" "So, its fellow
8:43:04Dowist Kai Sunping<unk>s eyes lit up,"
8:43:06and he then explained, "If you were a
8:43:08rogue cultivator, you would definitely
8:43:10be very careful here for fear of causing
8:43:13trouble. Only you disciples of the
8:43:15immortal sect are all calm and composed,
8:43:17even arrogant and doineering. They don't
8:43:20take us rogue cultivators seriously at
8:43:22all, so naturally they can recognize us.
8:43:24Such Chongqing silently memorized this
8:43:26explanation, intending to feain it next
8:43:29time he came. He then asked, "I have
8:43:31some spirit rice here. Do you want
8:43:32some?" Upon hearing the words spiritual
8:43:35rice, Sunping excitedly inquired, "What
8:43:38grade?" Su Chonqing lowered his voice,
8:43:40"Second rank." Sunping<unk>s eyes
8:43:42widened immediately. And then he said
8:43:44excitedly, "As expected of a disciple of
8:43:46the immortal sect, I'll take as many as
8:43:49fellow Daist Kai has." After spending
8:43:52and renting out rice over the past few
8:43:53days, Su Chongqing still had more than
8:43:564,000 gene of grade 2 spirit rice left,
8:43:58but he couldn't sell it all at once. So,
8:44:00he raised the five fingers of his right
8:44:02hand and said, "500 gene. 500 gene of
8:44:06grade 2 spiritual rice is definitely not
8:44:08much in a celestial sect, but this is a
8:44:11market town for independent cultivators.
8:44:13The person in front of me is a member of
8:44:15a small family that cultivates
8:44:17immortality. For them, being able to eat
8:44:19the finest spiritual rice is already a
8:44:21blessing. Second grade Lingi rice can
8:44:24only be eaten during festivals and
8:44:26birthdays. Sunping pondered 500 gene of
8:44:29grade 2 spirit rice. Today's market
8:44:31price is 1 minute and 1.4 seconds. Such
8:44:34Chanqing waved his hand to interrupt. I
8:44:37can't sell it to you at the market price
8:44:38of the loose cultivator market. Sunping
8:44:41was taken aback. How much do you want?
8:44:43Su Chongqing blurted out. 1 minute and
8:44:451.2 seconds. It's 0.1 lower than the
8:44:49immortal sect. Sunping was dumbfounded.
8:44:51Your proportions are a bit. Su Chongqing
8:44:54sneered. The proportion may be low, but
8:44:57this is top grade spirit rice. Top grade
8:45:00spirit rice. Upon hearing this,
8:45:02Sunping<unk>s pupils shrank. If that's
8:45:04really the case, I'm willing to buy them
8:45:06all at this ratio. He comes here every
8:45:09day to meet with the disciples of the
8:45:10immortal sect. The goal is to build good
8:45:12relationships and then acquire better
8:45:14resources. I can't believe I actually
8:45:16hit the jackpot today. Chapter 60. Azure
8:45:19Lotus Creation Technique. A small
8:45:21cultivation family. Chapter 60. Azure
8:45:24Lotus Creation Technique. A small
8:45:26immortal cultivation family asks 500
8:45:29caddies of second grade spiritual rice
8:45:31to be traded at a ratio of 1 minute and
8:45:331.2 seconds. How many low-grade spirit
8:45:36stones can I sell for? Sunping was
8:45:38unsure of what to do. So he said
8:45:40somewhat nervously, "Fellow Daist Kai, I
8:45:43am just a manager. The transaction of a
8:45:45large amount of spirit rice requires
8:45:47approval from the clan leader. Could you
8:45:49allow me to go back for a while?" Su
8:45:51Chan frowned. I won't wait too long.
8:45:54Thank you. Sunping didn't dare to delay
8:45:56and turned to leave, watching the other
8:45:58person's hurried departure. Such
8:46:00Chonqing walked to the other side. The
8:46:02main street of the Sonichcho market is
8:46:04very long, at least 1,000 m long. There
8:46:07are stalls and shops on both the left
8:46:09and right sides. Some of them are
8:46:10inhabited. Some sell goods. A dazzling
8:46:13array of all kinds of things were on
8:46:15display, but most of them are related to
8:46:17monsters. Various kinds of meat, fur,
8:46:20core parts, etc. Outside Doning City
8:46:23lies a dense black forest. It contains
8:46:25the layers of many monsters. The daily
8:46:28life of a wandering cultivator. Either
8:46:30form a demon hunting team or they sell
8:46:32things in the market. Such Chongqing
8:46:34thought to himself. If I remember
8:46:36correctly, in order to get Han Xin to
8:46:38install the five elements and four
8:46:40seasons array in addition to 1,000
8:46:43mid-grade spirit stones, I also need
8:46:45monster cores with the five elements
8:46:47attributes. Perhaps we can gather them
8:46:49all here. He immediately entered a
8:46:51trading firm called Doning. Judging from
8:46:53the name, it must be related to the
8:46:55golden elixir master Wong. Fellow Daist,
8:46:58what do you need? As soon as you
8:46:59entered, someone stepped forward. It was
8:47:02a slender female receptionist. Su
8:47:04Chongqing went straight to the point. Is
8:47:06there a monster core here? The female
8:47:08receptionist smiled slightly. Of course,
8:47:11we are the largest trading house in
8:47:12Daing City. Su Chongqing nodded and
8:47:15said, "Let me see." Unexpectedly, the
8:47:18female receptionist pointed to a bronze
8:47:20mirror in front of her and said, "This
8:47:22is a reflection mirror. You can see all
8:47:24the items in the trading house through
8:47:26it." Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
8:47:28stepped forward, but there was nothing
8:47:30in the mirror. He was surprised and
8:47:32immediately looked at him questioningly.
8:47:34The female receptionist explained, "Our
8:47:37trading firm values client privacy, so
8:47:39you need to inject a trace of spiritual
8:47:41energy to activate it. After it's
8:47:43finished, the mirror will automatically
8:47:45clear the record. Interesting. Su
8:47:47Chongqing<unk>s lips curled slightly and
8:47:49then he infused a wisp of spiritual
8:47:51energy into it. Suddenly, the mirror
8:47:54which had remained unchanged began to
8:47:57glow white. Then a series of words
8:47:59appeared such as monster core, spirit
8:48:01plant, spell, etc. There are many
8:48:04varieties. The female receptionist next
8:48:06to her reminded her, "Whatever you want,
8:48:09just think about it, and the mirror will
8:48:11automatically show it." Moreover, it's
8:48:13absolutely the latest stuff today. Su
8:48:15Choning originally intended to examine
8:48:18the demon core, but his gaze
8:48:19subconsciously focused on the spells. On
8:48:22a whim, he couldn't resist checking it
8:48:24out. Soon, various options for spiritual
8:48:26roots appeared. Aside from the five
8:48:28elements of spiritual roots which are
8:48:31metal, wood, water, fire, and earth,
8:48:34there are even other spiritual roots
8:48:36such as wind and thunder. However, the
8:48:38five elements spiritual roots have the
8:48:40most spells. There are few if any
8:48:43different spiritual roots either. There
8:48:45isn't a single one. The spells used in
8:48:47this trading house are mostly based on
8:48:49metal, water, and wood. Each type has at
8:48:51least a dozen parts. Such Chanqing
8:48:54decisively chose the wood spirit route.
8:48:56Suddenly, three more subcategories
8:48:58appeared. They are respectively low
8:49:00tier, high tier, and earth tier. There
8:49:03are seven books in the low-level
8:49:04category. There are five parts in the
8:49:07advanced category. The earth rank is
8:49:09zero. Such choning chose high level.
8:49:12Suddenly, five spells came into view.
8:49:14The art of wood storage, fragment.
8:49:17Ironwood armor technique, fragment. The
8:49:20wood heart method for inducing
8:49:21childbirth, fragment. Daunching hashing
8:49:24jew fragment. Azure lotus creation
8:49:26technique fragment. Su Chongqing raised
8:49:29an eyebrow. Why are they all incomplete
8:49:31pieces? The female receptionist said
8:49:33helplessly. The complete spells have all
8:49:36ended up in the auction house. Complete
8:49:38spells are precious enough, let alone
8:49:40highle ones. Most spells available on
8:49:43the market regardless of quality. It's
8:49:45either something that's common and
8:49:46readily available everywhere. Either
8:49:48it's an unwanted fragment. Complete
8:49:50spells are given priority in the auction
8:49:52house and the highest bidder wins. Oh,
8:49:55Such Chongqing was somewhat
8:49:57disappointed. The female receptionist
8:49:59continued. There are several complete
8:50:01low-level spells available for you to
8:50:02take a look at. Such Chongqing shook his
8:50:05head. We<unk>ll see. I don't have a lot
8:50:07of spirit stones, so I'll choose the
8:50:08higher level ones if I can. As for the
8:50:10complete low-level spells, let's take a
8:50:12look first. Then he began to examine
8:50:14them one by one. Wooden storage
8:50:16technique. This is a combination of
8:50:18movement techniques and escape
8:50:20techniques. Ironwood armor technique. No
8:50:23need to say more. Wood heart method for
8:50:25inducing childbirth. Similar to the wood
8:50:27spirit cultivation technique. Doning
8:50:30transformation formula. It turns out to
8:50:32be a spell that Master Wong practiced in
8:50:34his early years. Azure lotus creation
8:50:36technique. Based on the blue lotus, it
8:50:39enhances physical constitution and
8:50:41cultivates spiritual roots. Of these
8:50:43five highle spells, three were the most
8:50:45attractive to Sue Chonqing. They are
8:50:48wooden storage technique, Donging
8:50:50transformation formula, Azure lotus
8:50:52creation technique. As for the other
8:50:54two, the ironwood armor technique has
8:50:56been mastered to its highest level. As
8:50:58for the wood heart fertility method,
8:51:00there is an alternative called wood
8:51:02spirit cultivation technique. Do it
8:51:04according to your own needs. The first
8:51:06choice would definitely be the wood
8:51:08concealment technique since it combines
8:51:10movement techniques and escape
8:51:12techniques. The doning haingju might be
8:51:15related to master Wong. When faced with
8:51:17a choice, Such Chongqing couldn't let go
8:51:19of the Azure lotus creation technique.
8:51:21Why? Because he truly possessed a blue
8:51:24lotus seed. He was very interested in
8:51:26this creation route. Therefore, after
8:51:28much thought, I decided to temporarily
8:51:31abandon the wood concealment technique
8:51:33and the eastern green transformation
8:51:34technique. I spent 50 low-grade spirit
8:51:37stones to acquire the fragment of the
8:51:39azure lotus creation technique. He then
8:51:41looked at the demon core and his eyes
8:51:43widened in surprise. A monster core of
8:51:46any attribute requires at least 50
8:51:48mid-grade spirit stones. Su Chongqing
8:51:50couldn't help but ask, "Are monster
8:51:52cores really that expensive?" The female
8:51:55receptionist replied, "Because monsters
8:51:57only develop their core after a hundred
8:51:59years or more, hunting them is extremely
8:52:01difficult." Upon hearing this, Su Chanin
8:52:04gave up on buying the monster core and
8:52:06decided to wait until he had the money.
8:52:08The female receptionist was very
8:52:10welcoming. "Is there anything else you
8:52:12need? You get a commission every time a
8:52:14customer makes a purchase. The more you
8:52:16buy, the higher the commission, the more
8:52:18generous the bonus." Su Chongqing asked,
8:52:20"Do you have a brewing recipe here?" On
8:52:23the other side, the Sun family. Sunping
8:52:25hurriedly found the clan leader who was
8:52:27cultivating and shouted, "Clan leader."
8:52:29Sun rog, his cultivation interrupted,
8:52:32showed a displeased expression, "What is
8:52:34it?" Sunping quickly replied, "Spirit
8:52:37rice." Sun<unk>s face darkened, and he
8:52:40questioned sharply, "Didn't we just give
8:52:42you this month's spirit rice?" Upon
8:52:44hearing this, Sunping realized he had
8:52:46misunderstood and quickly waved his
8:52:48hand. Then explained, "No, it's not that
8:52:51I want spirit rice, but that I want to
8:52:53find a disciple of a celestial sect who
8:52:55is willing to sell us spirit rice." Oh.
8:52:58Son Rome was quite surprised and asked
8:53:00with great interest, "How many kilograms
8:53:02of grade one spirit rice?" To everyone's
8:53:05surprise, Sunping shook his head, "It's
8:53:07not top grade spiritual rice." Upon
8:53:10hearing this, Sun Ro jokingly said, "If
8:53:13it's not first rank, could it be second
8:53:15rank?" To everyone's surprise, Sunping
8:53:17nodded, then excitedly exclaimed, "Yes,
8:53:20yes, yes, it's grade two spirit rice, a
8:53:23full 500 gene." Chapter 61, first
8:53:26battle, instant wealth. Chapter 61,
8:53:29first battle, instant fortune. Sue
8:53:31Choning<unk>s hall this time was decent.
8:53:33A fragment of a highle cultivation
8:53:35technique called the Azure Lotus
8:53:37Creation Technique. A recipe for brewing
8:53:39a higher grade wine than Lingi wine,
8:53:41yellow rice wine. As soon as I stepped
8:53:43out of the trading house, I noticed
8:53:45someone was following me. As is
8:53:47wellknown, reaching the foundation
8:53:49establishment stage activates spiritual
8:53:51consciousness. Centered on itself, it
8:53:53has a range of approximately 10 jang.
8:53:56Everything within the spiritual
8:53:57consciousness can be perceived. After
8:53:59thinking it over, Su Chongqing decided
8:54:02to head towards where there were more
8:54:03people. Unexpectedly, the other party
8:54:05was like a leech clinging to a bone.
8:54:07They follow me everywhere I go. I can't
8:54:09shake them off at all. Senior brother
8:54:11Jeang, where is this kid going? Have no
8:54:14idea. Should we continue? He must have
8:54:16bought something good when he came out
8:54:17of the trading house. I understand what
8:54:20you mean. Let's continue. The people
8:54:22following Su Chongqing were none other
8:54:24than Jang Air and his group. They
8:54:26happened to see Su Chongqing coming out
8:54:27of the Daing trading house. Therefore,
8:54:30they followed closely. At this moment,
8:54:32Su Chongqing suddenly walked towards the
8:54:34north gate of Daing City. Jeang Air and
8:54:36his companions exchanged glances and
8:54:38immediately followed. Before long, they
8:54:41all arrived outside the north gate.
8:54:43There are many gathering points here,
8:54:45and monster hunting teams are
8:54:46everywhere. Some are waiting for
8:54:48someone. Some are hiring. Would you like
8:54:50to hunt demons together, fellow
8:54:51cultivator? A female cultivator
8:54:53approached. Su Chongqing ignored him and
8:54:56took out a flying paper crane, soaring
8:54:58into the air. Before long, he arrived at
8:55:01the outskirts of the black forest.
8:55:03Although monsters occasionally run out
8:55:04here, but most of the time it is safe.
8:55:07Still following us? Su Chongqing asked,
8:55:09hiding among the leaves and looking in
8:55:11the direction they had come from. Soon a
8:55:14paper crane approached for people were
8:55:16standing crowded up there. I don't
8:55:17recognize three of them, but there's one
8:55:19I'm very familiar with. It's actually
8:55:21Jangir. Such Chan was quite surprised.
8:55:24He initially thought the person
8:55:25following him was a greedy rogue
8:55:27cultivator. Unexpectedly, in a sense,
8:55:30they turned out to be one of our own.
8:55:32They all came from the same immortal
8:55:33sect, especially Jeangir, who came from
8:55:36the spirit field. The bald man among the
8:55:38four sneered. A mere spirit farmer dares
8:55:41to explore the black forest alone.
8:55:43Jangir sneered. This just gives us the
8:55:45perfect opportunity to make our move. He
8:55:48had long wanted to cause trouble for Su
8:55:50Chongqing. However, the opponent
8:55:52remained in the spirit field and did not
8:55:54come out. So, there was no way to make a
8:55:56move. Unexpectedly, this time I actually
8:55:59found an opportunity in the market town
8:56:00for scattered cultivators. In fact, the
8:56:03other party deliberately entered the
8:56:05black forest. If someone dies, their
8:56:07body doesn't even need to be buried. It
8:56:10will soon be eaten by monsters. This
8:56:12wasn't the first time Jeang and his
8:56:14group had done something like this.
8:56:15They'd killed several fellow disciples
8:56:17before. He knew that even if the
8:56:19immortal sect investigated the cause of
8:56:21death, it would be dropped without any
8:56:23evidence. Just as the four men were
8:56:25excitedly imagining the scene of
8:56:27dividing the spoils in their minds,
8:56:29suddenly several whooshing sounds rang
8:56:31out. Whoosh! Whoosh! A large number of
8:56:34black iron vines flew out from the dense
8:56:36foliage ahead. Fortunately, Jeang Air
8:56:39and the others had combat experience, so
8:56:41they reacted quickly. He immediately
8:56:43activated the spiritual power within his
8:56:45body. One person controls the vines. One
8:56:48person unleashed a burst of golden
8:56:50energy. One person forms an earthn
8:56:53shield. One person hid in the water
8:56:55bubble. They easily blocked the
8:56:56attacking black iron vine. Jeang Air
8:56:59couldn't help but sneer. Is this all
8:57:01you've got to launch a sneak attack? Su
8:57:03Chongqing, seemingly responding from
8:57:05within the leaves, said, "Of course,
8:57:08it's more than that." "Huh?" Jeang was
8:57:10taken aback upon hearing this. The next
8:57:12second, the flying paper crane shook
8:57:14violently. The four looked down and
8:57:16their faces turned deathly pale. It
8:57:19turns out that hideiating wasn't just
8:57:20attacking them and there are flying
8:57:22paper cranes at your feet. This thing is
8:57:24just paper with the ability to fly. No
8:57:26protective array was installed. If it's
8:57:28just one or two people, it can be barely
8:57:30controlled. But there were four of them.
8:57:33Instantly, the two people standing on
8:57:34the very edge fell down. One is the
8:57:37earth spirit route that just formed the
8:57:39earth shield. One is the golden
8:57:41spiritual route that just unleashed its
8:57:43golden energy. Having an earth elemental
8:57:45root is good. It's a physical
8:57:47cultivation method, so it has strong
8:57:49resistance to attacks. The one with the
8:57:52golden spiritual root was in a terrible
8:57:54predicament, helpless and at a loss in
8:57:56midair. With a bang, one person smashed
8:57:59a hole. One person suffered broken bones
8:58:01and tendons. H. Gene Ling Jen let out a
8:58:04heart-wrenching scream. Luckily, I'm
8:58:06tough enough. Earth spirit root
8:58:08struggled to climb out of the pit, but
8:58:10just then, the weeds on the ground began
8:58:12to rise wildly. In an instant, it
8:58:15transformed into dozens of black iron
8:58:17vines, giving them no chance to breathe,
8:58:19piercing them into pink cushions and
8:58:21killing them instantly. Jeang Air and
8:58:24the other water elemental being on the
8:58:25flying paper crane were not safe, even
8:58:28though they hadn't fallen. With only 5 m
8:58:30left to the ground, dense black iron
8:58:32vines shot out from the leaves of the
8:58:34opposite tree. Sorry. After saying that,
8:58:37Jeang Air suddenly jumped down and
8:58:39decisively abandoned the flying paper
8:58:41crane. The person is in the air and
8:58:43swings their arms. Two thick vines flew
8:58:46out and entangled two large trees
8:58:48nearby. The whole person felt like they
8:58:50were swinging on a swing. It sways up
8:58:52and down at a height of 3 m above the
8:58:54ground. It was a close call, but
8:58:56ultimately safe. You son of a
8:58:58Shuer Ling Jen cursed loudly upon seeing
8:59:01this. He wanted to control the flying
8:59:03paper crane, but it bore Jangir's mark.
8:59:06In the end, the person and the paper
8:59:08crane crashed into a large tree in front
8:59:10of them. Fortunately, the blisters
8:59:12protected the body and prevented most of
8:59:14the damage. Just as I breathed a sigh of
8:59:16relief, I heard a rustling sound
8:59:18overhead. He looked up and saw the
8:59:20familiar black iron vines again. Whoosh!
8:59:23Whoosh! The bubbles were already
8:59:24weakened by the impact. Moreover, this
8:59:27is a black iron vine formed by three
8:59:29layers of with spirit entanglement
8:59:31technique, and each vine has a
8:59:33penetrating force of 100 gene. The
8:59:35bubble burst with a pop, and the person
8:59:38became completely still. Damn it. Jeang
8:59:40Air landed on the ground, his face
8:59:42extremely gloomy. The entire process
8:59:45took less than 10 seconds, and the three
8:59:47companions died one after another. They
8:59:50didn't even know who the attacker was.
8:59:52I've never been so passive before.
8:59:54Suddenly, a noise came from ahead. Jeang
8:59:56Air immediately looked over, and when he
8:59:58saw who it was, he was struck dumb. Who?
9:00:01Su Chongqing. Jeang Air never imagined
9:00:04that the person who launched the sneak
9:00:05attack would be Su Chongqing. After all,
9:00:08in everyone's eyes, the other party was
9:00:10just an ordinary spiritual farmer. He
9:00:13has no other skills besides farming. He
9:00:15hid for almost 3 years before leaving
9:00:17Link Tian, which shows how cowardly he
9:00:19was. Su Chongqing brushed the leaves off
9:00:22his clothes, then revealed a cold,
9:00:24indifferent look as if he were looking
9:00:25at a dead man. Now you know why I don't
9:00:28call you senior brother. You're actually
9:00:30at the foundation establishment stage.
9:00:32Jeang Air felt a chill run down his
9:00:34spine. Only by reaching the foundation
9:00:36establishment stage can one kill them as
9:00:38easily as killing dogs. It took me three
9:00:41years to finally achieve theqi refining
9:00:43stage. But the other party had actually
9:00:45reached the foundation establishment
9:00:46stage. This person is terrifying. It was
9:00:49hidden too well. Su Chongqing, too lazy
9:00:52to waste words, immediately waved his
9:00:54hand. Instantly, hundreds of black iron
9:00:57vines sprouted out. They resembled
9:00:59venomous snakes, exuding a dangerous
9:01:01aura. Jeangier was unable to move. He
9:01:04was terrified.
9:01:06The next second, the black iron vines
9:01:08swarmed in. Jeang Air was stabbed into a
9:01:10pulp. His blood splattered everywhere.
9:01:13Next, Su Chongqing controlled the black
9:01:15iron vines to shred all the corpses
9:01:17until they were indistinguishable from
9:01:19the soil before he began to check the
9:01:21storage bags of the four people. There
9:01:23are so many good things here. There are
9:01:25more than a dozen spiritual artifacts,
9:01:27things like sword pellets and shields.
9:01:29There are more than a dozen bottles of
9:01:31pills. They have all kinds of
9:01:32strengthening pills and chi cultivation
9:01:34pills. The premium rice weighs over 800
9:01:37gene. There are over 300 gene of second
9:01:40grade lingi rice. The total value of the
9:01:42spiritual plant alone exceeds 10
9:01:44mid-grade spirit stones. Not to mention,
9:01:46there are many I don't recognize. As for
9:01:49spirit stones, there are even more.
9:01:51There are more than 300 low-grade
9:01:53pieces. There are 17 medium grade
9:01:55pieces. Such Chanqing even found a
9:01:57highle spell in Jangir's storage bag. It
9:02:00was the fragment of the wooden treasure
9:02:02technique that he originally wanted to
9:02:04buy. Looking at all this stuff, Su
9:02:06Chongqing couldn't help but raise an
9:02:08eyebrow. Now I finally understand what a
9:02:10horse won't get fat without night grass.
9:02:13And a person won't get rich without
9:02:14unexpected wealth means. Look at all
9:02:16this money. Chapter 62. After trading
9:02:19the spirit rice, I went to the brothel
9:02:21to listen to music. Chapter 62. After
9:02:24trading the spirit rice, we went to the
9:02:26brothel to listen to music. Just then, a
9:02:28roar came from the depths of the black
9:02:30forest. The sound was so loud that it
9:02:32spread outwards like rolling thunder.
9:02:35Wherever the sound waves passed, the
9:02:37flowers, grass, and trees trembled. The
9:02:40fish plunged to the bottom of the water
9:02:41and hid in the mud. Insects will squeeze
9:02:44into any crack or crevice almost as if
9:02:46they are fleeing. Countless startled
9:02:48birds took flight from the forest,
9:02:50fleeing in panic. What's that noise?
9:02:53Such Choning<unk>s expression changed
9:02:55slightly. Judging from the source of the
9:02:57sound, it should be deep in the black
9:02:59forest. You should know that it's full
9:03:01of monster layers. A monster that can
9:03:03make such a sound is definitely not
9:03:04simple. Therefore, Su Chongqing
9:03:07immediately summoned a flying paper
9:03:08crane and decisively moved away. As the
9:03:11north gate of Donging City drew closer,
9:03:13my heart finally settled down. After
9:03:15all, there is a golden core cultivator
9:03:17inside. Even if a monster does escape,
9:03:20it can be easily dealt with. Along the
9:03:22way, Su Chongqing saw many demon hunting
9:03:25teams heading towards the Black Forest.
9:03:27It's definitely a powerful demon. Go and
9:03:29take a look. Next month's auction is
9:03:31going to be amazing. These independent
9:03:33cultivators showed no signs of tension.
9:03:36In fact, they were visibly excited. Su
9:03:39Chongqing watched this unfold and
9:03:40murmured, "If I also become a rogue
9:03:42cultivator, will I be the same as them?"
9:03:45At this moment, he was incredibly
9:03:47grateful that he had chosen to stay with
9:03:48the Daunting immortal sect. Soon, Su
9:03:52Chongqing returned to Daing City. But
9:03:54their first priority wasn't to find Han
9:03:56Su, but to go to the trading house. The
9:03:58most urgent task is to dispose of the
9:04:00stolen goods. Jangir and the others sold
9:04:03whatever they could find. Under no
9:04:05circumstances should any clues,
9:04:07evidence, or incriminating evidence be
9:04:09left behind. Although magical artifacts,
9:04:12elixirs, and spiritual plants are
9:04:14tempting, but compared to fate, it
9:04:16ultimately falls short. Of course, it's
9:04:18not about selling to a trading house.
9:04:20Instead, there are multiple units sold
9:04:23in batches. He does have that much
9:04:25cunning. They even clean up some of the
9:04:26stalls they encounter on the street.
9:04:28Soon, these stolen funds were converted
9:04:31into spirit stones. All the spiritual
9:04:33plants were sold for 15 mid-grade spirit
9:04:36stones. All the magical artifacts were
9:04:38sold for 20 mid-grade spirit stones. All
9:04:41the pills were sold for five mid-grade
9:04:43spirit stones. There were also some
9:04:45miscellaneous items totaling three
9:04:47mid-grade spirit stones. The final
9:04:50reward for the first battle was a total
9:04:51of 63 mid-grade spirit stones. In other
9:04:55words, this trip to the Sono market not
9:04:57only didn't result in a loss, but
9:04:59actually made a fortune. There wasn't
9:05:01even a cost. I can contact Junior
9:05:03Brother Han Su now. Such Chonqing took
9:05:05out a communication talisman. Not long
9:05:07after, a sound came from the other side.
9:05:10Senior brother, I'm all set here. How
9:05:12about you? Junior brother is all set
9:05:14now. Let's meet up. Okay. Right where
9:05:16you exchanged the rice. The two quickly
9:05:19agreed on a specific location. As Su
9:05:21Chongqing was walking, two people
9:05:23approached him. One of them is a man.
9:05:25The other one was also a man. One is a
9:05:27middle-aged person. The other one was
9:05:29also middle-aged. Sonu breathed a sigh
9:05:32of relief. Fellow Daist Kai, I finally
9:05:34found you. Su Chongqing recognized him.
9:05:37Manager son. Son Yu pointed to the
9:05:39person next to him and introduced,
9:05:41"Fellow Daist Kai, this is Sun Rome, the
9:05:44current patriarch of my son family." Su
9:05:46Chongqing casually looked them over,
9:05:48then asked, "Have you thought it
9:05:50through?" Son R smiled slightly. Fellow
9:05:52Daist Kai, this is not the place to
9:05:54talk. Why don't you go to my son family
9:05:56mansion to rest for a while? Su Chonqing
9:05:59decisively refused. Sorry, I don't want
9:06:01to waste my time. Just kidding. Even
9:06:03though I'm a disciple of the immortal
9:06:05sect, logically speaking, there's no
9:06:07need to fear these rogue cultivators.
9:06:09One should not have the intention to
9:06:11harm others, but one should not be
9:06:13without the intention to guard against
9:06:14others. Who knows what will happen after
9:06:16going with them? Ultimately, life is the
9:06:19most important thing. Son Rome was taken
9:06:21aback for a moment, then smiled and
9:06:23nodded. Okay, to show our sincerity,
9:06:26let's make a deal directly. Su Chongqing
9:06:28extended his right hand. Spirit stones
9:06:31are your greatest token of sincerity.
9:06:33Sun R and Sun Yu understood immediately
9:06:36and hastily took out spirit stones that
9:06:38could buy 500 caddies of second grade
9:06:40spirit rice and handed them over. There
9:06:42are a total of four mid-grade spirit
9:06:44stones and 17 lowgrade spirit stones. It
9:06:47may seem like a small amount, but it is
9:06:49actually quite a lot. It should be noted
9:06:51that the ratio of immortal sex is 1
9:06:53minute and 1.3 seconds. In the market
9:06:56for independent cultivators, the ratio
9:06:58is 1 minute and 1.4 seconds. The Sun
9:07:01family purchased 500 gene of second
9:07:03grade Lingi rice at a ratio of 1 minute
9:07:06and 1.2 seconds. To be above the market
9:07:09and even above the immortal sect is a
9:07:11huge disadvantage, but there's nothing
9:07:13we can do. Grade 2 spirit rice is simply
9:07:15scarce. Especially in resource poor
9:07:18independent markets, it is even more
9:07:20difficult to buy them. Very good. Su
9:07:23Chongqing took out the spirit rice with
9:07:24satisfaction. After checking the spirit
9:07:27rice, Sun Rang suddenly took out his
9:07:29communication talisman and handed it
9:07:31over with a smile. Fellow Dowist Kai,
9:07:34please let me know in advance next time
9:07:36you come so that the manager can make
9:07:37adequate preparations. Such Chanqing
9:07:40knew immediately that the other party
9:07:41was reminding him, so he took the
9:07:43communication talisman and nodded. Okay.
9:07:46Then he walked toward the place he had
9:07:48agreed to meet with Han Su. Sun R and
9:07:50Sun Yu stood together watching Su
9:07:52Chongqing leave. Sun R said slowly. To
9:07:56be honest, I initially thought he was a
9:07:58fraudster. Sun Yu standing nearby was
9:08:01taken aback upon hearing this. And now,
9:08:03Sun Rang said earnestly, but after
9:08:06seeing these top grade spirit rice, I am
9:08:08certain that this person is not only not
9:08:10a fraud, but is definitely a disciple of
9:08:12the immortal sect. Sunu asked with great
9:08:15interest. Why? Sun Romero said with
9:08:18considerable pride, "In my early years,
9:08:20I followed Master Wong for a period of
9:08:22time and learned from him that spiritual
9:08:24rice comes in three qualities: inferior,
9:08:27superior, top quality. Different
9:08:29qualities of spiritual rice have
9:08:31different concentrations of spiritual
9:08:33energy. Outside, even in the markets of
9:08:36independent cultivators, it's considered
9:08:38good to be able to eat first grade
9:08:40spirit rice. Only disciples of immortal
9:08:42sex could sell so much top grade spirit
9:08:44rice produced from second grade spirit
9:08:46fields in one go. I bought these 500
9:08:49gene of second grade spiritual rise from
9:08:51Kaiuan who is also Su Chongqing. The
9:08:54concentration of spiritual energy is
9:08:56extremely high. All of them reach the
9:08:58highest grade among second grade
9:09:00spiritual rice. If consumed over a long
9:09:02period, it will be of great benefit to
9:09:04everyone in the sun family. Even if they
9:09:07can't compare to the disciples of the
9:09:08immortal sect, they will still have a
9:09:10place in this small daing city.
9:09:12Therefore, Sunr was prepared to
9:09:14cooperate with the other party for a
9:09:16long time, even if he suffered some
9:09:18losses. Meanwhile, Su Chongqing had
9:09:20already reunited with Han Su. Su
9:09:23Chongqing asked, "Junior brother, what
9:09:25do we do next?" Han Su glanced at the
9:09:27sundial, confirmed the time, and
9:09:29replied, "We've already missed the giant
9:09:31flying sword, so we<unk>ll have to spend
9:09:33the night here." Okay, Su Chongqing
9:09:36didn't seem to care. Then, led by Han
9:09:38Su, the two arrived near the East Green
9:09:41Tree. This place is actually much more
9:09:43lively and bustling than the scattered
9:09:45cultivator market. Even the air smelled
9:09:47sweet. You can see many disciples of
9:09:49immortal sects, rogue cultivators, all
9:09:52sorts of people. As Han Su led the way,
9:09:54he said, "Senior brother, most of the
9:09:57immortal sect disciples who come here
9:09:59spend the night at the invitation
9:10:00fragrance pavilion. Since this is your
9:10:02first time here, we'll do the same. Upon
9:10:05hearing this, Su Chongqing released his
9:10:07spiritual sense and became aware of
9:10:09everything within a 100 meter radius.
9:10:12Listening to indescribable sounds, feel
9:10:14the impact of these people's actions.
9:10:16How could he not understand what this
9:10:18invitation pavilion was? But far from
9:10:20feeling repulsed, I was actually quite
9:10:22excited. There's an old saying that
9:10:24goes, "Food and sex are human nature."
9:10:27Chapter 63. Participating in the auction
9:10:29house. Nine-layered Green Finger.
9:10:31Chapter 63. Participating in the auction
9:10:34house. Su Chongqing and Han Su who are
9:10:36at the ninelayer green finger pavilion
9:10:38have just arrived at the invitation
9:10:40pavilion. The sound of musical
9:10:42instruments came from nearby. The sound
9:10:44of the zithther was clear and resonant
9:10:46like a person fleeing. The sound of the
9:10:48zither murmured softly as if following
9:10:50closely behind. When chords are played,
9:10:53they transform into melodious,
9:10:55captivating sounds that tug at the
9:10:57heartstrings, drawing people in. As soon
9:10:59as the two eagerly stepped inside, their
9:11:02eyes widened in surprise. The entire
9:11:04Yaoang pavilion is divided into three
9:11:07floors. The first floor is mostly
9:11:09occupied by independent cultivators. The
9:11:12second floor is occupied by members of
9:11:14the Doningqing immortal cultivation
9:11:16family. The third floor is occupied by
9:11:18disciples of top tier forces or immortal
9:11:20sex. They formed one small circle after
9:11:23another. Yet they are doing the exact
9:11:25same thing. Most men have a beautiful
9:11:27woman by their side. Her jade-like hands
9:11:29fed the green grapes. Red lips deliver
9:11:31the spirit wine. In the pool in the
9:11:33middle of the first floor, the
9:11:35fluttering sleeves stirred up gusts of
9:11:37fragrant breeze. The fragrance of
9:11:39flowers, wine, clothes, and body lingers
9:11:42for a long time. Her slender, supple
9:11:44figure was soaked through like a tender
9:11:46lotus swaying in the morning mist, hazy
9:11:49and indistinct. As Su Chongqing was lost
9:11:52in thought, the sight of beautiful women
9:11:54came into view. Two immortals. I am Hong
9:11:57Xhu, the manager of Yao Pavilion. May I
9:11:59ask which floor you would like to visit?
9:12:01The woman in the lead had a very soft
9:12:03and sweet voice, and her eyes were three
9:12:05parts drunk, three parts hazy, and 94
9:12:08parts flirtatious. Such Chonqing was
9:12:10visiting for the first time, so he
9:12:12looked at Han Su. After thinking it
9:12:14over, the latter gritted his teeth and
9:12:16said, "Third floor prices vary depending
9:12:19on the floor. The higher you go, the
9:12:21more spirit stones you need." In
9:12:23addition to the cost of climbing the
9:12:24stairs, there is also a minimum spending
9:12:27requirement. Su Chongqing was visiting
9:12:29for the first time, so Han Su had to be
9:12:31very generous. In the past, when he
9:12:33came, he would only play on the second
9:12:35floor at most. Of course, Han Su at
9:12:38least acted very magnanimously in the
9:12:40face of a group of beautiful women. With
9:12:42a wave of his hand, he tossed the spirit
9:12:44stone into Hungju<unk>s arms.
9:12:47Immediately, surrounded by a group of
9:12:48beauties, the two went up to the third
9:12:50floor. The two immortals should choose
9:12:53their consorts," Hungju said, waving her
9:12:55hand. Immediately, the beautiful women
9:12:58lined up in a row. "They come in all
9:13:00shapes and sizes, tall and short, fat
9:13:03and thin. They were all quite
9:13:04attractive." Han Su was very sensible.
9:13:07"Please, senior brother." Su Chongqing
9:13:10waved his hand. "You can choose. I'm
9:13:12fine with either." Upon hearing this,
9:13:14Han Su felt that senior brother Su was a
9:13:16little shy, so he took the initiative to
9:13:18make a selection. They quickly selected
9:13:20the two most attractive ones. Unin Tao,
9:13:24aren't you going to get ready? Hung Xu
9:13:26urged. Immediately, the two chosen
9:13:28individuals turned around and went to
9:13:30change into new clothes. Bring along
9:13:32some fine wine and food. Approaching the
9:13:34brothel, Su Chonqing looked down and saw
9:13:37it more clearly. The dancers below were
9:13:39moving back and forth. The side with the
9:13:41most people cheers the loudest. Some
9:13:43people even threw spirit stones, causing
9:13:46water to splash everywhere. Immortal
9:13:48Master, let's drink. A soft, sweet voice
9:13:51suddenly rang out. A wave of heat wafted
9:13:53over, and then a delicate white hand
9:13:55holding a round porcelain cup came into
9:13:57view. Su Chongqing slowly shifted his
9:14:00gaze, moving it horizontally along the
9:14:02slender arm until he saw a rosy face
9:14:05after passing over the notso high
9:14:07fragrant shoulder. Willow leaf eyebrows,
9:14:10cherry lips. When she smiles, her eyes
9:14:12curve like crescent moons. Her eyes were
9:14:14the same as those of the steward named
9:14:16Hong Xu, seemingly drunk, but not quite,
9:14:19in a hazy, indistinct state. If I
9:14:22remember correctly, her name seems to be
9:14:24Tao. Thank you. Such Chanqing took the
9:14:26wine glass and took a small sip.
9:14:29However, the taste was quite good.
9:14:31Unfortunately, it's just ordinary wine,
9:14:33lacking any spiritual energy. Compared
9:14:35to its own spirit rice wine, it was
9:14:38worlds apart, like heaven and earth. At
9:14:40this moment, Han Su was holding another
9:14:42chubby baby named Anun as they ate and
9:14:45drank. He would occasionally tell a joke
9:14:47that wasn't funny. Although Su Chongqing
9:14:49didn't react at all, but the two
9:14:51beauties beside him were very
9:14:53supportive. Even if it's not funny,
9:14:55they'll still laugh. They even laughed
9:14:57so hard they were shaking. It was
9:14:58evening. The invitation pavilion was not
9:15:01deserted at all. On the contrary, it
9:15:03became even more lively. Suddenly, a
9:15:06silver bell rang out. It made a clanging
9:15:08sound. The floats are here, gentlemen.
9:15:11I'll take my leave first. Tsk tsk tsk so
9:15:16impatient. Soon people left each floor
9:15:18and headed outside. Su Chongqing asked
9:15:21curiously. What's afloat? To everyone's
9:15:23surprise, Anin and Tao immediately
9:15:26covered their mouths and giggled. Han Su
9:15:28gave a meaningful look. A place to
9:15:30sleep. Huh? Su Chonqing was taken aback.
9:15:33Han Su chuckled. Senior brother, if
9:15:35you're tired, you can take Taow to the
9:15:37float. Su Chongqing wasn't stupid. He
9:15:40immediately understood what it meant. No
9:15:42wonder those people were so eager to
9:15:44try. I just don't understand why it has
9:15:46to be inside the float. Hansu explained,
9:15:48"The float is a unique feature of Daing
9:15:50City. As long as someone gets on it, it
9:15:53will fly into the depths of the branches
9:15:54and leaves of the Daunching Tree." Su
9:15:57Chongqing couldn't help but ask, "Isn't
9:15:59this Daing Tree Wongjen?" Han Su
9:16:02blinked. Don't even mention Daing Tree.
9:16:04The entire city, especially this
9:16:07invitation fragrance pavilion, belongs
9:16:09to Master Wong. Su Chan was speechless.
9:16:12Han Su took a sip of strong liquor and
9:16:14said drunkenly. Senior brother, we came
9:16:17here to enjoy ourselves. After all,
9:16:19there are no such conditions or
9:16:21opportunities in the immortal sect. Su
9:16:23Chongqing smiled and said, "You go
9:16:26ahead. I'm afraid of heights. Daytime
9:16:28has arrived." Seeing that there was
9:16:30still time, the two entered the only
9:16:32auction house in Doning City, Daing
9:16:34auction House. Compared to various
9:16:36trading points, auction houses actually
9:16:38have a wider selection of items and the
9:16:40quality is better. You can even see the
9:16:43complete spell. The only downside is
9:16:45that it's more expensive. Moreover, they
9:16:47also have to compete with others.
9:16:49Spiritual plants, spiritual artifacts,
9:16:51and spells. Each item has a starting bid
9:16:53exceeding one mid-grade spirit stone.
9:16:56Why is it pointing green finger again?
9:16:58Yes, it was sold last time, wasn't it?
9:17:00Although this is a low-level spell, it
9:17:02has nine levels, and no one can
9:17:04cultivate it to the end. Many people buy
9:17:07and sell, learn from their mistakes.
9:17:09I'll wait for the Azure water sword that
9:17:11I've been longing for. At this moment, a
9:17:13complete low-level cultivation technique
9:17:15appeared. However, the reactions and
9:17:18attitudes of those around him showed
9:17:19great disdain. It sounds like it has
9:17:21been auctioned off many times before,
9:17:23but they usually end up in auction
9:17:25houses again not long after they're
9:17:26sold. Su Chongqing asked thoughtfully,
9:17:29"What is the effect of this green
9:17:30finger?" The waitress next to him
9:17:32immediately said, reporting to the
9:17:34immortal master, "It can enhance the
9:17:36spiritual plants." Han Su couldn't help
9:17:39but remind him, "Senior brother,
9:17:41although this green finger is a complete
9:17:43spell, as you can see, nobody wants it,
9:17:46so there must be something wrong with
9:17:47it." Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
9:17:50asked again. The person just now said,
9:17:52"It has nine floors." The waitress
9:17:54nodded. Yes, it's a low-level spell, but
9:17:57once you reach level 9, it's no
9:17:59different from a highle one. I'll take
9:18:01it. Such Chonqing really wanted to give
9:18:03it a try. After all, others cannot
9:18:05cultivate to the ninth level. But I can
9:18:07do it myself, even very quickly. If
9:18:09reaching the ninth level of true magic
9:18:11is no different from highle spells, then
9:18:13you've made a huge profit. Soon, Su
9:18:16Chongqing bought the low-level spell
9:18:18pointing green finger for three
9:18:20mid-grade spirit stones. The main
9:18:22problem is that there's no competition.
9:18:24Nobody wants it. Even with cultivators
9:18:26of the woods spirit route present, they
9:18:28all look disgusted. There are even
9:18:30people with deep-seated grudges buying
9:18:32this. It'll probably end up in auction
9:18:34houses again in a few days. Isn't it
9:18:36good if some fool is willing to buy? At
9:18:38least it will get us into the next round
9:18:40sooner. Such Chonqing ignored the
9:18:42sarcasm and ridicule from those around
9:18:44him. Soon, a jade slip was delivered to
9:18:47him. It contains the complete contents
9:18:49of the low-level spell, pointing green
9:18:51finger. Chapter 64. Green wood water
9:18:54dividing hoe. Green finger max level.
9:18:57Chapter 64. Green wood water dividing
9:18:59hoe. Green finger max level auction
9:19:01continues. One item after another was
9:19:04brought out for auction. There are many
9:19:05kinds of magical artifacts, spells,
9:19:08spiritual plants, and elixirs. However,
9:19:11most of them ultimately only have one
9:19:13result. They failed to sell at auction.
9:19:15After all, most people who attend
9:19:17auctions are there for necessities. The
9:19:19next item up for auction is a magical
9:19:21artifact. It is named Bluewood Water
9:19:23Dividing Hoe. It has two effects. I
9:19:26excavation. Two, water diversion. The
9:19:29starting bid is three mid-grade spirit
9:19:31stones and the minimum bid increment is
9:19:34one mid-grade spirit stone. Another
9:19:36magical artifact was placed on the
9:19:38table. It is a hoe. It belongs to the
9:19:40category of everyday magical artifacts.
9:19:43This is certainly not unfamiliar to any
9:19:45of the Grenfellians, but the others were
9:19:47different. They had absolutely no
9:19:49interest. No more than five people in
9:19:51the entire auction house wanted to bid.
9:19:53However, this magical artifact is
9:19:55different. Ordinary magical artifacts
9:19:57rarely have prefixes. Once it appears,
9:20:00it means that it has a special effect.
9:20:02The greenwood water dividing hoe has
9:20:04already been introduced. It has two
9:20:06effects. They are digging and diverting
9:20:08water respectively. Digging soil, as the
9:20:11name suggests, means digging up the
9:20:13soil. This effect is similar to that of
9:20:15Han Su's method of loosening the soil.
9:20:18As for water diversion, it involves
9:20:20guiding the flow of water and also
9:20:21digging irrigation canals. In terms of
9:20:24effectiveness, the second one is better
9:20:26than the first one. After all, all
9:20:28spiritual plants need spiritual rain and
9:20:30spring water for irrigation. Because it
9:20:33has a prefix, it is more efficient and
9:20:35effective than ordinary spiritual
9:20:37artifacts. I'll offer four mid-grade
9:20:39spirit stones. I'll put up five. Even
9:20:42with the prefix, more than five pieces
9:20:44are a bit expensive. Only a handful of
9:20:46people in the entire auction house were
9:20:48interested. Moreover, they were all
9:20:50spirit farmers. Cultivators with other
9:20:52spiritual roots did not participate.
9:20:55Such Chongqing originally didn't care
9:20:57and wasn't even interested. After all,
9:20:59loose soil contains Han millet. The rain
9:21:01brought white spirits. But then I
9:21:03suddenly remembered that there was a
9:21:05patch of black soil at the foot of the
9:21:07Rocky Mountain. In particular, it
9:21:09contains mutated spirit rice. The idea
9:21:11of bidding suddenly came to mind. After
9:21:13all, the soil there still needs to be
9:21:15turned over. But obviously, it was
9:21:17impossible to ask Han Soo for help. Once
9:21:20the secret is leaked, the consequences
9:21:22are predictable. If I were to do it
9:21:24myself, the daily magical artifacts
9:21:26would be barely enough. If you use a
9:21:28greenwood hoe with the prefix, the
9:21:30effect will definitely be better.
9:21:31Therefore, when the person in front
9:21:33calls out six mid-grade spirit stones,
9:21:35and no one else is competing, Su
9:21:37Chongqing decisively bid seven pieces.
9:21:40Immediately, all the Lingong who had
9:21:42previously had ideas about the Greenwood
9:21:44water spplitter fell silent. Although
9:21:46this magical artifact has a prefix, it
9:21:49is considered to be overpriced if it
9:21:50exceeds five pieces. Thus, Su Chongqing
9:21:54successfully obtained the daily magical
9:21:56artifact with the prefix greenwood water
9:21:58splitting hoe. Upon seeing this, Hanu
9:22:01immediately became nervous, thinking to
9:22:03himself, could it be that I didn't
9:22:05entertain senior brother Sue well
9:22:06yesterday, so they don't intend to let
9:22:08me loosen the soil again? Such Chongqing
9:22:11seemed to have guessed as much and asked
9:22:13with a smile. It's<unk> reasonable for a
9:22:15spiritual farmer like me to have a hoe,
9:22:17isn't it? That seems to be true. Han Su
9:22:20paused for a moment, then realized he
9:22:21had been overthinking it. Neither of
9:22:23them were interested in what came next.
9:22:25Not long after, they got up and left for
9:22:27the flight dock. When they arrived, the
9:22:30giant flying sword had just landed.
9:22:32Several more disciples from the daunting
9:22:34immortal sect came down from above.
9:22:36Since they didn't know each other,
9:22:38neither of them took the initiative to
9:22:39greet each other. After paying, I found
9:22:42a spot to sit cross-legged and waited to
9:22:44depart. Such Chonqing finally returned
9:22:46home. Woof! Woof! The yellow dog Wong
9:22:49Wong was overjoyed, and as it
9:22:51approached, it excitedly peed itself.
9:22:53Cuckoo! The guinea fowl remained perched
9:22:55on the armrest of the chair, silently
9:22:57watching. For humans, it might only take
9:23:00a day and a night, but for the spirit
9:23:02beast, it felt like a very long time had
9:23:04passed. They didn't know the exact time,
9:23:06only that their master hadn't been seen
9:23:08for a long time. He Such Chongqing
9:23:11squatted down and angrily rubbed Wong
9:23:13Wong<unk>s head. Then he went to the
9:23:15Guinea Fowl and personally fed them a
9:23:17handful of second grade spirit rice.
9:23:19Only after all the service was completed
9:23:21did they enter the house. First, she
9:23:23glanced at the food and water she had
9:23:25prepared for the two little ones before
9:23:27leaving. Seeing that the food was all
9:23:28gone, he immediately went into the
9:23:30kitchen to start cooking. Half an hour
9:23:32had passed by the time everything was
9:23:34settled. Su Chongqing sat cross-legged
9:23:37on the wooden bed and took out all the
9:23:38spoils of this trip to take stock. There
9:23:41are still more than 50 spirit stones.
9:23:43There are three parts to magic. They are
9:23:46wooden storage technique, pointing the
9:23:48green finger, azure lotus creation
9:23:50technique. Apart from pointing to green
9:23:52finger, the other two are incomplete
9:23:54works. However, this was not a problem
9:23:57for Su Chonqing. Anyway, with the system
9:23:59around, it can be fixed as long as time
9:24:01is spent. The only question is which one
9:24:04should I learn first? Normally, the
9:24:06Azure lotus creation technique should be
9:24:08prioritized. This technique places more
9:24:11emphasis on cultivation and is a
9:24:13substitute for the evergreen technique.
9:24:15However, learning any highle spells or
9:24:17techniques requires a long time. It
9:24:19takes at least a month to get the hang
9:24:21of it. Therefore, after much
9:24:23deliberation, Su Chongqing finally
9:24:25picked up the low-level spell, pointing
9:24:27green finger. The lower level ones are
9:24:29easier to get started with. It can even
9:24:31reach level 9, comparable to highle
9:24:33spells. He took out a bottle of second
9:24:35grade spirit rice wine and took a big
9:24:37gulp before starting to study. As time
9:24:39went by, thanks to the effects of expert
9:24:42grade Lingi wine, I finally mastered the
9:24:44basics after 10 days. pointing to green
9:24:46finger first layer effect one early
9:24:49maturity rate plus 5%. Would you like to
9:24:52consume 150 days of your lifespan to
9:24:55upgrade the Azure finger technique from
9:24:57level 1 to level two? So little Such
9:25:00Choning asked in surprise 150 days is
9:25:03equivalent to 5 months. It should be
9:25:05noted that it took more than 1,000 days
9:25:07to upgrade the evergreen technique to
9:25:09the second level. Although it was
9:25:11unexpected, we definitely need to
9:25:13improve. Therefore, select yes.
9:25:16Immediately, experience and techniques
9:25:18regarding the fingerpointing technique
9:25:20emerged. In the blink of an eye, the
9:25:22upgrade was over. Pointing green finger,
9:25:24second layer. Effect one, early maturity
9:25:27rate plus 5%. Effect two, increase
9:25:30quality of spiritual plants by 3%. Two
9:25:33layers of green dots. Add a second
9:25:35effect while keeping the first effect
9:25:37unchanged. However, its effect is still
9:25:39minimal or even negligible. Especially
9:25:42for Linga, a type of rice, it's
9:25:44practically zero. After all, the quality
9:25:47of the spiritual rice that Su Chongqing
9:25:49grows is all topnotch, and there is
9:25:51currently no room for improvement. Would
9:25:53you like to consume 240 days of your
9:25:55lifespan to upgrade the Azure finger
9:25:57technique from level two to level three?
9:26:00Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow. How many
9:26:02days would it take to directly advance
9:26:04to the ninth level? Soon the
9:26:06notification changed. Would you like to
9:26:08consume 3,285
9:26:11days of your lifespan to upgrade the
9:26:13Azure finger technique from level 2 to
9:26:15level 9? 9 years. Such Chongqing could
9:26:18accept it. So he readily agreed.
9:26:20Immediately a vast amount of experience
9:26:22and techniques regarding finger pointing
9:26:24emerged. It ended after a while.
9:26:26Remaining lifespan 154,315
9:26:30days. Pointing green finger nine layers.
9:26:33Effect one, premature maturity rate plus
9:26:3615%. Effect two, improvement rate of
9:26:39inferior products plus 20%. Effect
9:26:42three, quality improvement rate plus
9:26:4410%. Effect four, top tier item upgrade
9:26:47rate plus 5%. Effect five, plant
9:26:50mutation rate plus 0.1%.
9:26:53Mutation. Such Choning's eyes lit up.
9:26:56After using the pointing finger
9:26:57technique, there is a one in a thousand
9:26:59chance that the spiritual plant will
9:27:01mutate. The chances of that happening
9:27:03are not high. It can be said to be very
9:27:05low, but it looks different from another
9:27:07perspective. After all, there are a lot
9:27:09of spiritual plants. The chances of
9:27:11success are relatively higher. Moreover,
9:27:14if this one in a thousand chance were
9:27:15applied to mutated spirit rice, wouldn't
9:27:18that mean it could mutate again? Chapter
9:27:2065, Mutant Cabbage, Mutant Rice. Please
9:27:23urge for more updates. Chapter 65,
9:27:25Mutant Cabbage, Mutant Rice, please urge
9:27:28for more updates. In the early morning,
9:27:30a thin mist covered the fields. On the
9:27:32spiritual plant, there were drops of
9:27:34crystal clearar dew. Cuckoo. The guinea
9:27:37fowls dark eyes darted around, searching
9:27:39for insects on the ground. The yellow
9:27:41dog, Wong Wong, lay at the doorway with
9:27:44its two front paws crossed, its posture
9:27:46appearing extremely elegant. With a
9:27:48creek, Such Chongqing, dressed, stepped
9:27:51out of the door and walked briskly
9:27:53towards the spirit field, putting on his
9:27:55bamboo hat as he went. Once he stood on
9:27:57the edge of the field, he spread his
9:27:59spiritual sense outwards. Instantly,
9:28:02information about spiritual rice,
9:28:04vegetables, fourleaf clovers, and other
9:28:06spiritual plants appeared one after
9:28:08another. Immature, undamaged, abundant
9:28:11spiritual energy. All the spiritual
9:28:13plants were the same as yesterday
9:28:15without any difference. Upon seeing
9:28:17this, Su Chongqing<unk>s lips curled up
9:28:20into a smile. For a Jinseng farmer, the
9:28:22greatest happiness is when everything is
9:28:24normal. However, he did not turn around
9:28:27and leave. Instead, they took off their
9:28:29shoes and entered the sacred field
9:28:31barefoot. It was a spring morning, and
9:28:33the temperature hadn't risen yet.
9:28:35Therefore, the soil contains a slight
9:28:37coolness. When disturbed by outsiders,
9:28:40they all launched an attack. However, Su
9:28:42Chongqing did not have an earth
9:28:44elemental root, so he was not afraid of
9:28:46the cold. Soon, he arrived at a stock of
9:28:48sacred rice. Its height is approximately
9:28:511.2 m. The top was covered with heavy
9:28:54ears of rice. It was covered with unripe
9:28:56green rice grains. At this moment, Su
9:28:59Chongqing raised his right hand,
9:29:01accompanied by the depletion of his
9:29:03spiritual energy. The next second, a
9:29:05bluish light appeared on his right index
9:29:07finger. Clearly, this is the low-level
9:29:10spell, pointing green finger. Lightly
9:29:12tapped the rice seedling in front of
9:29:14you. In an instant, the blue light found
9:29:16an outlet and surged forth wildly.
9:29:18Instantly, the delicate body of the
9:29:20spirit rice trembled. Gradually, a faint
9:29:23blue light also appeared on his body.
9:29:26It's visibly taller now. Unfortunately,
9:29:28there were no other changes. Let's try
9:29:30them one by one. Such Chongqing was not
9:29:32disappointed. Next, he used his finger
9:29:35technique to touch each plant one by
9:29:36one. Unfortunately, a one in a thousand
9:29:39chance is indeed quite low. Ultimately,
9:29:42without exception, none of them mutated.
9:29:44However, Such Chanqing still did not
9:29:46give up because there are still Chinese
9:29:48cabbage, chili peppers, and four-leaf
9:29:50clover that I haven't tried yet. So, I
9:29:52patiently started working on these
9:29:54vegetables again. Plant by plant
9:29:56location. Failure after failure. Before
9:29:58long, the chili peppers and fourleaf
9:30:00clovers were all taken care of. Only a
9:30:03small number of Chinese cabbages
9:30:04remained, still starving for food. My
9:30:07spiritual energy is almost depleted.
9:30:09Such chonqing since this dantion. If
9:30:12this were during theqi refining stage, I
9:30:14would have already gone back to my room
9:30:16to rest after expending so much energy.
9:30:18Now that I'm in the foundation
9:30:19establishment stage, my spiritual energy
9:30:22can sustain me for longer. After
9:30:24thinking it over, he decided to order
9:30:25the rest of the cabbages. But as I was
9:30:27clicking, a ding sound suddenly came
9:30:29from inside. Such Chongqing thought it
9:30:32was a system notification, so he looked
9:30:33at the attribute panel. But it turned
9:30:35out that nothing had changed. No, to be
9:30:38precise, yes, it means that your
9:30:40remaining lifespan has decreased by a
9:30:42few days, which means you've aged a few
9:30:44more days. Lamenting the fleeting nature
9:30:46of time, Su Chongqing once again
9:30:48searched for the source of the sound.
9:30:50Ultimately, their focus settled on a
9:30:52large Chinese cabbage. Because he wanted
9:30:54to finish quickly, he ordered very fast
9:30:56and didn't notice anything a miss. I
9:30:59just realized that this cabbage is twice
9:31:01the size of the ones next to it. There
9:31:03is one next to it. It looks like a lump.
9:31:05Could it be? Su Chongqing<unk>s heart
9:31:07skipped a beat and he hurriedly
9:31:09enveloped the area with his spiritual
9:31:10sense. The next second, information
9:31:13about the cabbage appeared. Mature
9:31:15mutant Chinese cabbage. Spiritual energy
9:31:18content doubled. Pest resistance
9:31:20doubles. That's it. Such Chonqing
9:31:22blinked. This lucky cabbage received two
9:31:25effects. One is that it matures ahead of
9:31:27time. One is mutation. However, no
9:31:30matter how things change, one fact
9:31:32remains unchanged. That's water shield
9:31:34shinsai. This thing is only used for
9:31:36stir frying or pickling Chinese cabbage.
9:31:39It has no other uses. Fortunately, this
9:31:41at least proves that the blue finger
9:31:43technique is indeed effective.
9:31:45Afterwards, Su Chonqing ordered all the
9:31:47remaining cabbages. Once it was
9:31:49confirmed that there was only one
9:31:51mutated seed, it was immediately pulled
9:31:53out of the ground with a pop. Harvest
9:31:55one mutant cabbage plant. Lifespan
9:31:58increased by 7 days. It has a lifespan
9:32:00that is 4 days longer than that of
9:32:02normal high-quality vegetables. Wong
9:32:04Wong Pearl Chicken. Today's breakfast is
9:32:07quite substantial. Su Chongqing held a
9:32:09mutated cabbage in his hands, waved it
9:32:12at the two little ones, and then walked
9:32:13to the ditch to start cleaning it. In no
9:32:16time at all, it was washed clean. Of
9:32:18course, I didn't forget the mud stuck to
9:32:20my feet either. Then he went to the
9:32:21kitchen and began preparing breakfast.
9:32:24The sounds of dudu rang out one after
9:32:26another. The cutting board even
9:32:28vibrated. This cabbage even has
9:32:30increased defense after it mutated. It
9:32:32wasn't so easy to cut it. It took a bit
9:32:34of effort. Half an hour later, a
9:32:36delicious breakfast was ready. Two fried
9:32:38eggs, a plate of stir-fried chili
9:32:41peppers with mutated Chinese cabbage, a
9:32:43pot of mutated Chinese cabbage, and
9:32:45second grade spirit rice porridge. It
9:32:47may not seem like much, but it's
9:32:49actually much better than other jennins.
9:32:51Second grade spirit rice is something
9:32:52others have to eat sparingly. Such
9:32:54Chonqing didn't skimp on food at all. He
9:32:57ate every meal. Not to mention the
9:32:59mutated vegetables with even higher
9:33:01spiritual energy content. Cuckoo. The
9:33:04guinea foul hopped into the house and
9:33:05headed straight for the dining table.
9:33:07When they got close, they leaped up.
9:33:09Just then, the yellow dog Wong Wong
9:33:12rushed in, drooling. Whether they didn't
9:33:14see it or did it on purpose, they kicked
9:33:16the guinea foul away. Afterwards, he
9:33:18even gave Su Chongqing a fawning smile.
9:33:21Its tail wagged incessantly as if it
9:33:23were asking for praise. Gurgle, gurgle.
9:33:26The guinea fouls calls have become much
9:33:27weaker. They dare not approach any
9:33:29further, huddled in the corner, looking
9:33:31on pitifully. You guys, Such Chongqing
9:33:34said, both amused and exasperated.
9:33:37However, he did not show favoritism.
9:33:39Everyone gets a share, and the portions
9:33:41are generous and filling. The first bite
9:33:43of stir-fried chili peppers with mutated
9:33:45Chinese cabbage was chewed. Such
9:33:47Choning<unk>s eyes lit up immediately.
9:33:50This mutated Chinese cabbage is crisp
9:33:52and refreshing. One bite and the juices
9:33:54burst in your mouth. Next up is the
9:33:56mutated cabbage and second grade spirit
9:33:59rice porridge. The flavor is also soft
9:34:01and delicate. The more you eat, the more
9:34:04delicious it becomes. The more you eat,
9:34:06the more you want to eat. After
9:34:08finishing the meal, my stomach was full.
9:34:10It contains a large amount of spiritual
9:34:12energy waiting to be refined. Such
9:34:15Chongqing didn't wash the dishes. He
9:34:17went straight back to the wooden bed and
9:34:19sat cross-legged. Then he activated the
9:34:21evergreen technique and began to refine
9:34:23the spiritual energy within his body.
9:34:25Time passed second by second and the
9:34:27refining was completed after an incense
9:34:29stick had burned. The spiritual energy
9:34:32within his body has recovered and has
9:34:34even increased slightly. Such Chongqing
9:34:36clicked his tongue. If I eat mutated
9:34:38vegetables and mutated spirit rice
9:34:41everyday, I feel like I can reach the
9:34:43foundation establishment stage in less
9:34:45than 10 years. Unfortunately, while the
9:34:47dotting the blue finger technique is
9:34:49effective, the success rate is too low.
9:34:52After washing the dishes, he quickly
9:34:54headed towards the Rocky Mountain. After
9:34:56all, there are still many mutated rice
9:34:58varieties that haven't been tried. As
9:35:00you get closer, a faint fragrance fills
9:35:02the air. This is the unique flavor of
9:35:05the mutated spirit rice. The more mature
9:35:07it is, the stronger its flavor becomes.
9:35:10Currently, Such Chongqing has no way to
9:35:12avoid this. The good thing is that this
9:35:14place is very remote and sparsely
9:35:16populated. They skillfully entered the
9:35:18cave and saw the mutated spirit rice
9:35:21again. The mutated mother rice in the
9:35:23very center is still golden and looks
9:35:25quite plump. Mutant mother rice. Many
9:35:27children, many blessings. Reiki
9:35:29cultivation. One jang of domain. The
9:35:32entry hasn't changed much. Such Chanqin
9:35:35felt that this needed to be maintained
9:35:36for a long time. Soon his gaze fell on
9:35:39the rice seedlings beside him. They are
9:35:41growing very well. Immature mutant rice.
9:35:44No damage. Abundant spiritual energy. No
9:35:47problem. Su Chonqing decisively cast the
9:35:50low-level spell, pointing green finger.
9:35:52A rich blue light gathered at the
9:35:54fingertips. We started with the mutant
9:35:56rice. One plant after another. I don't
9:35:59know how much time has passed. As I was
9:36:01clicking, a ding sound suddenly came
9:36:03from inside. If I heard correctly, it
9:36:05seems there's a mutated rice plant. It's
9:36:07mutated. Chapter 66. A spiritual root
9:36:10like a green lotus taking 50 years.
9:36:13Chapter 66. A spiritual root like a
9:36:15green lotus. 50 years of developing
9:36:18golden rice gathering spirit rice.
9:36:20Golden rice bears gathering spiritual
9:36:23energy. Abundant spiritual energy.
9:36:26Immature with a prefix. Such choning
9:36:29asked in surprise. He had seen it in the
9:36:31rayata hayakaman raku. Ordinary
9:36:33spiritual plants do not have prefixes.
9:36:36Even if there is a mutation, a prefix
9:36:38may not necessarily appear. This is
9:36:40based on chance, not a 100% probability.
9:36:43Prior to this, there were no mutant
9:36:45mother rice and mutant daughter rice.
9:36:48Multiple mutations may occur, increasing
9:36:50the likelihood of the prefix appearing.
9:36:52For example, there are not only two of
9:36:54these plants in front of us. They are
9:36:56respectively golden rice, gathering
9:36:58spirits. Gathering spiritual energy is
9:37:01easy to understand. It means gathering
9:37:03spiritual energy. But Jinmi made Su
9:37:06Chongqing a little suspicious. After
9:37:08all, the mutated rice itself is golden.
9:37:11He took out the records of spirit fields
9:37:13and examined it carefully. We have
9:37:15indeed made a discovery. It is clearly
9:37:17written in the mutation chapter. There
9:37:19is a certain chance that the spiritual
9:37:21rice will mutate. There are many types
9:37:24such as common mutations or the five
9:37:26elements may change. Common mutations
9:37:28are like mutant rice. Different
9:37:30variations of the five elements will be
9:37:32indicated by a prefix. Golden rice
9:37:34contains golden spiritual energy. This
9:37:37means that it produces spirit rice that
9:37:39is more suitable for the golden spirit
9:37:41root to consume. It's useless to me, but
9:37:43it's useful to leing. Su Chonqing said
9:37:46thoughtfully. My own with elemental
9:37:48root. There are only two types of
9:37:50spiritual energy that can be absorbed.
9:37:52One type is wood attribute spiritual
9:37:54energy. One type is attributeless
9:37:57spiritual energy. Attribute free
9:37:59spiritual energy is the purest spiritual
9:38:02energy in the cultivation world. For
9:38:04example, the spirit stone minds in the
9:38:06earth's veins are formed by the
9:38:08condensation of spiritual energy without
9:38:10any inherent attributes. As for
9:38:12spiritual eyes and spiritual veins,
9:38:14these are extremely rare and are all
9:38:16occupied by immortals. Therefore, for
9:38:19ordinary cultivators, eating lingi is
9:38:21the best choice. Although the spirit
9:38:23rice needs with spirit energy to grow.
9:38:26However, once mature, the spirit rise
9:38:28produced has no inherent properties.
9:38:30Having no attributes means that anyone
9:38:32can absorb it. This is also the main
9:38:34reason why people buy Lingi. Of course,
9:38:37spirit stones can also be used for
9:38:38cultivation and are even more effective
9:38:40than spirit rice. But the question is,
9:38:43how many cultivators in the entire
9:38:44Tanuan realm can do that? After much
9:38:47thought, Su Chongqing decided that there
9:38:49was no need to hide the golden rice
9:38:51gathering spirit rice. Either hand it
9:38:53over to the immortal sect, in which case
9:38:55you will be rewarded with 1,000 points.
9:38:58Either tell Leing by and let the other
9:39:00party exchange benefits for it. After
9:39:02all, you can't eat it if you keep it
9:39:04yourself. It's better to maximize
9:39:06profits. However, there's no need to
9:39:08rush to publicize this. The message will
9:39:10be sent out when it rains and thunders.
9:39:12A formal disciple at the core of the
9:39:14spirit field cultivated a mutated spirit
9:39:17rice. Similar things have happened
9:39:18before and more than once. Many
9:39:21spiritual farmers would love for their
9:39:22cultivated spiritual plants to mutate.
9:39:25To put it bluntly, it's purely a matter
9:39:27of luck. If you're lucky, you'll get it.
9:39:29Therefore, Su Chongqing composed himself
9:39:32and began to move the spiritual spring
9:39:34water for irrigation. Once everything
9:39:36was settled, he returned the way he
9:39:38came, acting as if nothing had happened.
9:39:40Next, we will learn the Azure lotus
9:39:42creation technique. Once you reach the
9:39:44foundation establishment stage, higher
9:39:46level cultivation techniques become even
9:39:49more useful. As for the evergreen
9:39:51technique, it will not be discarded
9:39:52until the with spirit cultivation
9:39:54technique is learned. Sitting
9:39:56cross-legged on the bed, Su Chonqing
9:39:59took out the jade slip containing the
9:40:00fragments of the azure lotus creation
9:40:02technique. I want to cultivate this
9:40:04advanced technique. There is one
9:40:06premise. It means having a companion
9:40:08blue lotus. No, to be precise, it
9:40:11possesses the seeds of the blue lotus,
9:40:13nurturing it daily with what elemental
9:40:15power until it sprouts. When the person
9:40:17and Shinglian are of one mind, they can
9:40:20proceed to the next step. Su Chongqing
9:40:22raised his right hand and the spirit
9:40:24seal of the character would instantly
9:40:26appeared. With a thought, a tiny green
9:40:29lotus seed appeared in his outstretched
9:40:30palm. It's no different from when I
9:40:32first saw it. After all, spirit seals
9:40:35only have a storage function and no
9:40:37nurturing ability. Cultivation, eating,
9:40:40irrigation, weeding. Such Chonqing
9:40:42repeats the same thing every day. Far
9:40:45from finding it boring, they actually
9:40:46enjoyed it immensely. This feeling of
9:40:48constant growth is truly captivating. In
9:40:51the early morning, 10 days later, Su
9:40:53Chongqing sat cross-legged on the bed,
9:40:55cultivating lotus seeds. Suddenly, a
9:40:58clicked sound rang out in the quiet
9:41:00room. To his surprise, the lotus seed in
9:41:02his palm moved slightly. Then, a very
9:41:04tiny crack appeared on the surface. If
9:41:07you look closely, you'll see a faint
9:41:08green light emanating from inside. The
9:41:11jade shimmers and sparkles beneath the
9:41:13water. Clearly after 10 days of
9:41:15cultivation, the lotus seed has finally
9:41:17sprouted. The tinder shoots grew slowly
9:41:20under the infusion of with spirit power.
9:41:22It slowly emerges from its hard shell.
9:41:24At the same time, a feeling of mutual
9:41:27understanding arises spontaneously. It
9:41:29was as if this was not a sprouting lotus
9:41:31seed. It's more like a part of the body,
9:41:33something that can be perceived and
9:41:35controlled at will. Such Chonqing was
9:41:37overjoyed and began to increase his
9:41:39efforts, releasing more with elemental
9:41:41power. The green shoots are growing at a
9:41:44rate visible to the naked eye. Finally,
9:41:46before dawn, it transformed into a very
9:41:49small blue lotus. The leaf lobes are
9:41:51above, gradually decreasing in size from
9:41:54the outside in like a small blue green
9:41:57goblet. At this stage, we can move on to
9:41:59the next step. This step is called
9:42:01chinglian temple. Visualize a blue lotus
9:42:04and transform your own spiritual root
9:42:06into a blue lotus. At that time,
9:42:09cultivation speed, spiritual energy,
9:42:11concentration, and physical strength
9:42:13will all be greatly improved. However,
9:42:15Su Chongqing did not continue. Instead,
9:42:18he got out of bed and went outside.
9:42:20Outside, the temperature is not high. A
9:42:23thin morning mist floated by. He
9:42:25proceeded directly to his daily
9:42:26training. As spring draws to a close,
9:42:29the wood elemental energy circulating in
9:42:31the world is dwindling. Even with the
9:42:34help of spiritual plants to gather
9:42:35spiritual energy, the growth of
9:42:37spiritual power is still slow. After the
9:42:40sun rose, the cultivation practice
9:42:42ended. Next, Such Chanqing began
9:42:44cooking, weeding, and irrigating. By the
9:42:47time everything was finished, it was
9:42:48already noon. Only then did I have time
9:42:50to begin visualizing the blue lotus.
9:42:52This observation lasted for more than 20
9:42:55days. Finally, the wood spirit root
9:42:57within his body transformed into the
9:42:59shape of a blue lotus. Although it only
9:43:02has the form, it still represents the
9:43:04successful entry into the Azure Lotus
9:43:06Creation Technique. Su Chongqing<unk>s
9:43:08heart stirred and he began to check the
9:43:10attribute panel. Azure lotus creation
9:43:12technique level one. Effect one,
9:43:15physical fitness increased by 5%. Effect
9:43:18two, cultivation speed increased by 5%.
9:43:21Effect three, increases spiritual energy
9:43:24absorption efficiency by 5%. As expected
9:43:27of a highle cultivation technique, Such
9:43:30Choning<unk>s eyes lit up. It has the
9:43:32effect of the second level of the
9:43:33evergreen technique on only the first
9:43:35level. It's easy to imagine how powerful
9:43:38it would be to upgrade it to the highest
9:43:39level. Would you like to consume 20,58
9:43:43days of your lifespan to repair the
9:43:44incomplete Azure Lotus Creation
9:43:46Technique? How much? Su Chongqing<unk>s
9:43:49eyes widened, his expression one of
9:43:51disbelief. 20,058 days is equivalent to
9:43:5554 years. You should know that you only
9:43:57have a lifespan of 300 years. It took so
9:44:00much time to repair this technique.
9:44:02Although surprised, Such Chongqing did
9:44:04not hesitate. For him, the least
9:44:06important thing is lifespan. Therefore,
9:44:09select yes. Instantly, countless pieces
9:44:11of information about the Azure Lotus
9:44:13creation technique appeared. In a days,
9:44:16Su Chongqing used his limited knowledge,
9:44:18experience, and skills. It took a full
9:44:2154 years to repair the fragments and
9:44:23complete the manuscript. At the same
9:44:25time, the content on the properties
9:44:27panel changes. Remaining lifespan
9:44:30134,237
9:44:32days. Azure lotus creation technique
9:44:35level one. Effect one, physical fitness
9:44:38increased by 10%. Effect two,
9:44:40cultivation speed increased by 10%.
9:44:43Effect three, increases spiritual energy
9:44:46absorption efficiency by 10%. Special
9:44:49effect. Initial perception of plant life
9:44:51force can accelerate the growth of
9:44:53ordinary plants. After the Azure lotus
9:44:55creation technique was repaired, not
9:44:57only were its ordinary effects enhanced,
9:44:59but it even produced special effects.
9:45:02Chapter 67. The Azure Lotus Blooms in
9:45:05the domain production breaks through
9:45:06again. Please urge for more updates.
9:45:09Chapter 67. The Azure Lotus Birth
9:45:11Domain. Production breakthrough again.
9:45:14Please urge update. Special effect. Such
9:45:16Chonqing was very surprised. It seems
9:45:19that the Azure Lotus Creation Technique
9:45:21is not simple. Is this really a highle
9:45:23cultivation technique? Would you like to
9:45:25consume 666 days of your lifespan to
9:45:28upgrade the Azure Lotus Creation
9:45:30Technique to level two? Yes.
9:45:33Immediately, a wealth of experience and
9:45:35techniques regarding the Azure Lotus
9:45:37Creation Technique emerged. The
9:45:39elevation ended after two breaths.
9:45:41Remaining lifespan 133,571
9:45:45days. Azure lotus creation technique
9:45:48second level. Effect one, physical
9:45:50fitness increased by 20%. Effect two,
9:45:54cultivation speed increased by 20%.
9:45:56Effect three, increases spiritual energy
9:45:59absorption efficiency by 20%. Special
9:46:02effect can manipulate ordinary plants,
9:46:05accelerating their growth rate. The
9:46:06three common effects are doubled. The
9:46:08special effects have changed again.
9:46:10However, it still falls within the
9:46:12category of ordinary plants. After
9:46:14probing, Such Chongqing had a general
9:46:16idea in mind. Therefore, he no longer
9:46:18promoted himself step by step. Instead,
9:46:21they went all in and went all the way to
9:46:23the maximum level. Would you like to
9:46:25consume 5,525
9:46:28days of your lifespan to raise the Azure
9:46:30Lotus Creation Technique to level 9?
9:46:33Yes. In an instant, Su Chongqing seemed
9:46:36to enter a state of sudden
9:46:37enlightenment. The brain becomes
9:46:39extremely active and excited. He had a
9:46:41thorough understanding of all the
9:46:43experiences and techniques related to
9:46:45the Azure lotus creation technique. This
9:46:47state lasted for quite a while before
9:46:49ending and then I came out of it. Azure
9:46:51lotus creation technique ninth level.
9:46:54Effect one, physical fitness increased
9:46:56by 100%. Effect two, increases spirit
9:47:00power recovery speed by 100%. Effect
9:47:03three, increases spiritual energy
9:47:05absorption speed by 100%. Effect four,
9:47:09increases spiritual energy conversion
9:47:11efficiency by 50%. Effect five, speed of
9:47:14learning would attribute spells plus
9:47:1650%. Special effect one, perceive
9:47:19specific information about all plants.
9:47:22Special effect two, creates a ten jang
9:47:24long green lotus domain, increasing
9:47:26plant growth speed within the domain by
9:47:2850%. Special effect three, the
9:47:31concentration of spiritual energy within
9:47:33the area is greatly increased and the
9:47:35recovery speed is increased by 50%.
9:47:38Special effect four adapts well to
9:47:41natural environments, enhancing stealth
9:47:43capabilities. Special effect 5 reduces
9:47:46the aura emitted by oneself and the
9:47:48fluctuations caused by one's realm. H
9:47:51Such Chongqing gasped for breath. This
9:47:53has already fallen outside the scope of
9:47:55advanced techniques. It is at least
9:47:57close to the Earth rank cultivation
9:47:59technique. While both are highle
9:48:01techniques, the wood spirit entanglement
9:48:03technique isn't nearly as outrageous.
9:48:06Judging from this, the Azure Lotus
9:48:07creation technique is definitely not
9:48:09simple. It might even be hiding some
9:48:11unknown secret. Such Chonqing ran
9:48:14outside barefoot without even putting on
9:48:15shoes. In an open space, he immediately
9:48:18activated the Azure Lotus creation
9:48:20technique. The next second, the
9:48:22companion green lotus in his hand flew
9:48:24out with a drip. The moment it landed, a
9:48:27cyan halo radiated outwards at an
9:48:29extremely fast speed. Instantly, a cool
9:48:32and refreshing sensation surged through
9:48:34Su Choning<unk>s body. It felt like
9:48:36soaking in a cool spring and summer,
9:48:38very comfortable. As time goes by, the
9:48:41weeds and wild flowers underfoot change.
9:48:43It continues to grow at a rate visible
9:48:45to the naked eye. The weeds are getting
9:48:47taller and taller. The wild flowers are
9:48:49getting more and more mature. Even the
9:48:52content of wood elemental energy is
9:48:53steadily increasing. Su Chongqing<unk>s
9:48:56heart stirred and he activated the with
9:48:58spirit entanglement technique.
9:49:00Instantly, the surrounding weeds
9:49:02transformed into black iron vines. The
9:49:04number exceeds 100, even reaching 150.
9:49:08If consumed normally, the spiritual
9:49:10energy in the cheese sea can last for
9:49:12about 5 minutes. If they stayed in the
9:49:14azure lotus domain, this time would be
9:49:16greatly extended. At least 10 minutes is
9:49:19no problem. Such Chongqing waved his
9:49:21hand and the black iron spikes shot
9:49:23towards the popppler trees in front of
9:49:24him. The aggressive sounds continued
9:49:27incessantly, pierced its entire body
9:49:29through, making it look like a hedgehog.
9:49:31After trying it, Su Chongqing waved his
9:49:34hand, and the companion lotus returned
9:49:36to his hand. The area affected by the
9:49:38spread quickly dissipated. The weeds,
9:49:40reaching the height of an adult's leg,
9:49:43appeared remarkably resilient. The wild
9:49:45flowers exuded a faint fragrance and
9:49:48were covered with a layer of honey
9:49:49powder. Seeing this, Such Chongqing
9:49:51shifted his gaze and fixed it on the
9:49:53spirit field. Since plants are useful,
9:49:56then spiritual plants must also be
9:49:58useful. Therefore, he immediately
9:50:00stepped forward and threw the companion
9:50:02lotus in his handout. It landed in the
9:50:04black soil with a whoosh, and the blue
9:50:06aura quickly spread out. Ten Jang is
9:50:09equivalent to 33 m, enough to contain a
9:50:1225 meter wide second grade spirit field
9:50:15covering all the spirit plants within
9:50:17it. Then Su Chongqing released his
9:50:19spiritual sense to carefully perceive
9:50:21the surroundings. Time passed by second
9:50:24by second. These shrouded spiritual
9:50:26plants are growing at a very slow rate.
9:50:28Such Chongqing estimated that if the
9:50:30spiritual energy was exhausted every
9:50:32day, it would be a problem. You get
9:50:34three extra months a year. That is to
9:50:36say, while others can plant four times,
9:50:38he can plant five times. Even the excess
9:50:41output doesn't need to be handed over
9:50:43because nobody knows about it. Su
9:50:45Chongqing observed this and pondered,
9:50:47"Because the area is large, it consumes
9:50:49a lot of spiritual energy. Why don't we
9:50:52try the mutated rice?" Thinking of this,
9:50:54he immediately withdrew his companion
9:50:56lotus and strode towards the stone
9:50:58mountain. Soon, the person arrived
9:51:00outside the cave and quickly crawled
9:51:02inside. After a few steps, a golden
9:51:05light shone down, slightly dazzling.
9:51:07Without delay, Su Chonqing immediately
9:51:10threw out the companion lotus, which
9:51:11landed next to the mutated mother rice.
9:51:14The next second, the azure lotus domain
9:51:16reappeared. But this time, it didn't
9:51:18reach Ten Jang. The area covered was
9:51:20limited to what was in front of us due
9:51:22to the surrounding rocks. Sure enough,
9:51:24the rate at which spiritual energy was
9:51:26consumed decreased. But then things
9:51:29changed. The mutated mother rice in the
9:51:31Azure lotus realm actually emitted a
9:51:33glass-like halo. It felt like a
9:51:35resonance. Immediately afterwards, a
9:51:38large amount of wood elemental energy
9:51:40gathered. The mutated rice greedily
9:51:42absorbed the nutrients and the rice ears
9:51:44became heavier and heavier. I forgot
9:51:47mother rice also has a domain. Such
9:51:49Chonqing quickly realized. In other
9:51:51words, when two domains overlap, the
9:51:54mutated rice matures at the same speed
9:51:56as the normal rice. If we extend the
9:51:58time frame to one year, we can make this
9:52:00inference. If nothing unexpected
9:52:02happens, you can get one more. It's
9:52:04important to know that more times means
9:52:06more output. High yield indicates a
9:52:08higher proportion of mutated spirit
9:52:10rice. Although they couldn't send down
9:52:12spiritual rain, this method seemed to
9:52:14make up for that regret. Perhaps one day
9:52:16we'll be able to eat mutated spirit rice
9:52:18every meal. By then, the effects of
9:52:20second grade spiritual rice will be
9:52:22minimal. Aside from brewing wine,
9:52:24selling it is the only option left. It
9:52:27must be said that the Azure lotus
9:52:28creation technique gave Su Chongqing a
9:52:31tremendous surprise. The combination of
9:52:33various effects is truly incredible.
9:52:35With a heart full of excitement, he
9:52:37looked at the attribute panel again.
9:52:39Such Chonqing, male, 20 years old.

9:53:26rain knows its season. It falls when
9:53:28spring arrives. Chapter 68. Good rain
9:53:31knows its season and falls with a
9:53:33thunderous roar when spring arrives. The
9:53:36deep rumble of thunder grew louder as it
9:53:38approached. It was as if a heavy object
9:53:40was being crushed in the dark clouds.
9:53:43Moments later, the drizzle began to fall
9:53:45from the clouds, intertwined with each
9:53:47other. Spring rains are quieter and
9:53:49gentler. It lacks the sweltering heat of
9:53:51summer. There was no chill of autumn.
9:53:54There is no biting cold like in winter.
9:53:56Landing on the roof, it made only a
9:53:58faint sound, not at all noisy. Fine
9:54:00raindrops slid down the eaves, quickly
9:54:03turning into a curtain of water. Such
9:54:05Chonqing lay comfortably on the bed,
9:54:07listening to the raindrops outside the
9:54:09window, and couldn't help but say, "Good
9:54:11rain knows its season. It falls when
9:54:14spring arrives. This spring rain is
9:54:16wonderful." After the reign, the news
9:54:18about golden rice gathering spirit rice
9:54:21can be spread. As for whether it was
9:54:22given to Leingai, it should be handed
9:54:25over to the immortal sect. It all
9:54:27depends on Leing by sincerity. Next,
9:54:29Such Chonqing continued reading about
9:54:31the yellow rice wine for him. Now,
9:54:34ordinary spirit rice wine is no longer
9:54:36of much use. To achieve even greater
9:54:38effects, a higher grade of spirit wine
9:54:40must be brewed. Compared to regular rice
9:54:43wine, this yellow rice wine is more
9:54:45popular and commands a higher price. And
9:54:47so, I don't know how much time passed.
9:54:49The pattering rain gradually subsided.
9:54:52At the same time, Su Chongqing, who was
9:54:54lying on the bed, had a sudden thought.
9:54:57Introduction to yellow rice wine. Effect
9:54:59one, increases spiritual energy
9:55:02absorption speed by 10% for 1 hour.
9:55:04Negative effect one, long-term
9:55:06consumption will significantly reduce
9:55:08reaction speed. Negative effect two,
9:55:11long-term consumption can cause severe
9:55:13damage to internal organs. Su Chonqing
9:55:16pondered, "Two negative effects right
9:55:18off the bat. Would you like to consume
9:55:20999 days of your lifespan to upgrade
9:55:23your yellow rice wine skill to
9:55:24proficiency? Yes. Soon, experience and
9:55:28techniques regarding yellow rice wine
9:55:29emerged. Su Chongqing entered a state of
9:55:32sudden enlightenment. Absorb all the
9:55:35information quickly. Skilled at making
9:55:36yellow rice wine. Effect one, increases
9:55:39spiritual energy absorption speed by 20%
9:55:42within 1 hour. Negative effect one,
9:55:45long-term consumption may slightly
9:55:47reduce reaction speed. Negative effect
9:55:49two, long-term consumption may cause
9:55:52moderate damage to internal organs. It's
9:55:54changed. Such Chonqing nodded slightly.
9:55:57The effect doubled. Both negative
9:55:59effects were mitigated. In other words,
9:56:01compared to the previous Lingi wine,
9:56:03although yellow rice wine may cause more
9:56:05serious damage at first. However, as the
9:56:08quality improves, this damage will
9:56:10gradually decrease. Would you like to
9:56:12consume 1,088 days of your lifespan to
9:56:15upgrade yellow rice wine to mastery? No.
9:56:18Upgrade it to the highest level. Such
9:56:20Chongqing was very decisive. In an
9:56:22instant, he once again entered a state
9:56:24of enlightenment. This time, it will
9:56:26last even longer. Successfully consumed
9:56:295,566
9:56:31days of lifespan to upgrade yellow rice
9:56:33wine to masterful level. Remaining
9:56:36lifespan 121,481
9:56:39days. A miraculous method for making
9:56:42yellow rice wine. Effect one, increases
9:56:45spiritual energy absorption efficiency
9:56:47by 100% for 1 hour. Effect two, after
9:56:51drinking alcohol, the spiritual energy
9:56:53loss of wood type techniques is reduced
9:56:55by 15%. Effect three, in a slightly
9:56:58tipsy state, the speed of comprehending
9:57:00low-level martial arts techniques
9:57:02increases by 50%. Effect four, in a
9:57:06slightly tipsy state, the speed of
9:57:08comprehending advanced techniques
9:57:09increases by 30%. Special effects
9:57:12relieves damage caused by long-term
9:57:14consumption of alcohol. Oh my, Such
9:57:17Chanching suddenly sat up in bed. He
9:57:19originally thought that upgrading the
9:57:21yellow rice wine to the highest grade
9:57:23would greatly reduce the harm.
9:57:24Unexpectedly, it actually had a special
9:57:27effect of immunity to damage. In other
9:57:29words, there's no problem even if you
9:57:31drink it everyday. You don't need to
9:57:33worry about anything happening. Su
9:57:35Chongqing<unk>s lips curled up slightly.
9:57:37I'm suddenly really looking forward to
9:57:39seeing what kind of expression Han Xen,
9:57:41this female alcoholic, will have after
9:57:43drinking the millet wine. It'll
9:57:45definitely be interesting. One is Han
9:57:47Xen. One PMO. This couple was addicted
9:57:50to alcohol, drinking everyday and at
9:57:52every meal. They practically eat alcohol
9:57:54as food. Next, Su Chongqing began the
9:57:57brewing process. Anyway, I have
9:57:59everything I need. However, compared to
9:58:02Lingi wine, which can be drunk in a few
9:58:04days, Huangi wine takes half a month.
9:58:07But this amount of time is of no
9:58:08importance to him or to all cultivators.
9:58:11By the afternoon, the light drizzle had
9:58:13slowed its descent. The air in Link
9:58:16gradually became fresher. Seeing that
9:58:18the rain was about to stop, Su Chonqing
9:58:20put on his straw hat and headed towards
9:58:22the Rocky Mountain. They arrived quickly
9:58:24and then skillfully crawled into the
9:58:26hole. The mutated spirit rice appeared
9:58:29before their eyes. Besides the mutated
9:58:31mother rice, the one that attracted Su
9:58:33Chongqing<unk>s attention the most was
9:58:35the golden rice spirit gathering rice.
9:58:37This thing is brighter in color than its
9:58:39similar counterparts. Although it is not
9:58:41as large as the mutated mother rice, it
9:58:43is similar in many aspects. You can even
9:58:46feel the sharpness contained in each
9:58:48grain of golden rice. Without
9:58:49hesitation, Su Chongqing took out a
9:58:52green wooden hoe and began digging. He
9:58:54wanted to transplant this golden rice
9:58:56spirit gathering rice plant to a spirit
9:58:58field outside. It must be said that
9:59:00although the Greenwood water splitter is
9:59:02an everyday magical tool, it still
9:59:04carries a prefix. Therefore, it is easy
9:59:06to use. Not only did it not damage the
9:59:09root system of the mutated rice,
9:59:11loosening the soil is actually more
9:59:13efficient. Before long, Su Chongqing dug
9:59:16the golden rice spirit, gathering rice
9:59:18out of the ground. He continuously
9:59:20released with elemental power, carefully
9:59:22enveloping it. Then, he turned and left.
9:59:24Not long after, the mutated rice plant
9:59:27was successfully transplanted to prevent
9:59:29any accidents. They even placed the
9:59:31accompanying blue lotus beside them,
9:59:34guarding it at all times. It wasn't
9:59:36until half an hour later that they were
9:59:37sure everything was all right. Such
9:59:39Chongqing then took out the
9:59:41communication talisman. The first person
9:59:43they contacted was Lee San Kai, whom
9:59:45they hadn't seen in a long time. Hello,
9:59:47it's me, senior brother. Junior brother
9:59:50Sue, is something the matter? This? Just
9:59:53say it. Junior brother, a mutated spirit
9:59:55rice has appeared here. Could you come
9:59:57and take a look? Snap. If Su Chongqing
10:00:00wasn't mistaken, he heard the sound of a
10:00:02porcelain cup cracking on the other end
10:00:04of the line. From that moment on, Li
10:00:06Sanankai never uttered another word.
10:00:08After an incense stick has burned, a
10:00:10yellow paper crane appears from afar. Su
10:00:13Chongqing recognized it as Li Sansai's
10:00:15mode of transportation, so he hurriedly
10:00:17went out to greet him. Li Sanankai
10:00:19landed on the flying paper crane, then
10:00:21asked with a strange expression, "Where
10:00:23is the mutated spirit rice?" Su Chonqing
10:00:26smiled and pointed, "It's right in the
10:00:28spirit field." Li Sanankai looked over
10:00:31and indeed saw a golden shimmering
10:00:33spirit rice. It stood out from its
10:00:35surroundings. Everything else is
10:00:37greenish yellow. This one, however, is
10:00:40entirely covered in crystal-like gold.
10:00:42It radiates a dazzling light. There are
10:00:45also many rice ears. It looks heavy.
10:00:47Clearly, this is definitely a mutated
10:00:49spirit rice. Upon hearing this, Leankai
10:00:52couldn't help but exclaim, "Junior
10:00:54brother, you're really lucky." Others
10:00:57may not have seen a single mutated
10:00:58spiritual plant for years or even more
10:01:00than a decade. Su Chongqin, on the other
10:01:03hand, acquired a plant in less than 3
10:01:05years after joining. If this news gets
10:01:08out, I wonder how many Ling farmers it
10:01:10will upset. I'm afraid I won't be able
10:01:12to eat well or sleep well. You know,
10:01:14everything is getting more expensive
10:01:16these days. Therefore, the price of
10:01:18mutated spiritual plants remains
10:01:20consistently high. Previously,
10:01:22submitting to the immortal sect would
10:01:23earn you 1,000 points. Submitting to the
10:01:26immortal sect nowadays will earn you at
10:01:28least 1,500 points. If you were to sell
10:01:30it, the price would be at least 500
10:01:32mid-grade spirit stones. In other words,
10:01:35our junior brother Sue is going to
10:01:37strike it rich. Chapter 69, Maximizing
10:01:40Profits. Demon would water avoiding
10:01:42boat. Chapter 69, Maximizing Profits. Su
10:01:45Chongqing scratched his head and said,
10:01:47"I didn't expect that either." After
10:01:49speaking, he couldn't help but glance at
10:01:51the Rocky Mountain. There are still 99
10:01:54mutated spirit rice plants inside. Liang
10:01:57Kai nodded slightly, then asked, "What
10:01:59do you want to do?" Such Chanqing
10:02:00quickly said, "I've checked. This
10:02:02mutated spirit rice is called golden
10:02:05rice gathering spirit rice. It contains
10:02:07rich golden spiritual energy, which
10:02:10should be useful to senior brotherly
10:02:11Lingai." Upon hearing this, Li Sanankai
10:02:14raised an eyebrow. Are you sure? I'm
10:02:16sure. Su Chongqing nodded vigorously.
10:02:19Immediately, Liang Kai pondered. If it
10:02:22really is golden rice gathering spirit
10:02:24rice, then my cousin should be willing
10:02:26to buy it. Su Chongqing frantically
10:02:28hinted, I only notified my senior
10:02:30brother because he's one of our own.
10:02:32Liengai understood immediately and said,
10:02:35"Okay, I will send someone to inform my
10:02:37cousin." Su Chongqing asked in
10:02:39confusion, "Isn't there a communication
10:02:41talisman?" Upon hearing this, Li
10:02:43Sanankai explained, "Our immortal sect
10:02:46is too far from the central region, so
10:02:48communication talismans are useless.
10:02:50Communication talisman, also known as a
10:02:53communication spirit talisman. It is
10:02:55divided into two types, short distance
10:02:57and long distance. Generally speaking,
10:03:00it is definitely possible to make
10:03:01contact within or near the immortal
10:03:03sect. But if the distance is too far,
10:03:06then there's nothing that can be done.
10:03:07Such Chongqing said with a hint of
10:03:09regret. It seems I'll have to go talk to
10:03:11Elder Hua. Liang Kai was stunned for a
10:03:14moment, then said with a rice smile,
10:03:16"Don't rush. Give your senior brother 10
10:03:18days. If you can't contact your cousin,
10:03:21you can do whatever you want with this
10:03:22mutated spirit rice." Okay, this was
10:03:25exactly what Su Chongqing had been
10:03:27waiting for. Leeling by is not only a
10:03:29genius with three spiritual roots, he is
10:03:32also a core disciple of the Imperial
10:03:34Water Pavilion. His backer is a nent
10:03:36soul true monarch. As long as you cling
10:03:38to this powerful figure, you can
10:03:40comfortably farm. He wasn't interested
10:03:42in fighting, killing, or scheming. Then
10:03:45Liangai quickly rode away on a flying
10:03:47paper crane. Such Chongqing watched the
10:03:49other person disappear before turning
10:03:51his gaze away. All we need to do now is
10:03:53wait patiently. Several days later, no
10:03:56news came from Lee Lingby. On the
10:03:58contrary, the spirit rice matured first.
10:04:01Such Chanqing uses theQing domain
10:04:03everyday to accelerate his growth. Now
10:04:05it's finally starting to show some
10:04:07results. Of course, this time it was
10:04:09only a few days earlier. After all, when
10:04:11you learned that azure lotus creation
10:04:13technique, two months of spring have
10:04:15already passed. At this moment, the
10:04:17mature spiritual rice plants in the
10:04:19spiritual field swayed in the wind.
10:04:21Those heavy ears of rice looked as if
10:04:24they might fall at any moment. Each
10:04:26grain of rice is exceptionally plump,
10:04:28containing abundant elemental spiritual
10:04:30energy. Such Chonqing gripped the sickle
10:04:33and extended his spiritual sense. Mature
10:04:36abundant spiritual energy. No loss.
10:04:39Second grade spirit rice. Today's best
10:04:42yield for thousand gene. Sure enough,
10:04:444,000 gene is the limit for a second
10:04:46grade spirit field. If you want more,
10:04:49you'll have to expand the area of the
10:04:50spirit field or add an extra acre. But
10:04:53Such Chongqing knew that the time was
10:04:55not right. Then he stepped barefoot into
10:04:57the spirit field and began to harvest
10:04:59mercilessly. Harvesting one supreme
10:05:01spirit rice plant increases lifespan by
10:05:046 days. Harvesting one mutant sweet
10:05:06potato plant increases its lifespan by 7
10:05:09days. Harvesting one premium cabbage
10:05:12increases its lifespan by 3 days. Since
10:05:15learning the Azure lotus creation
10:05:17technique, Su Chongqing<unk>s physique
10:05:19has been enhanced once again. Therefore,
10:05:21they did not feel tired during the
10:05:23harvest. On the contrary, the more they
10:05:25do it, the more motivated and energetic
10:05:27they become. When all the spiritual
10:05:29plants in the spiritual field, whether
10:05:31spiritual rice or vegetables, have been
10:05:34harvested. Less than 2 hours had passed,
10:05:36the efficiency was exceptionally fast.
10:05:38The results this time were actually
10:05:40about the same as last time. The various
10:05:42vegetables weighed about 200 gene 100
10:05:45caddies in total. The number of mutated
10:05:47vegetables was greater than expected
10:05:49because the sweet potatoes were buried
10:05:51underground. They hadn't been discovered
10:05:53before. The yield of grade 2 lingi is
10:05:56still 4,000 gene. Subtract 150 gene from
10:06:00Hubuga. Subtract 50 gene of Han Su.
10:06:03Subtract 800 gene from Leing's weight.
10:06:06and the 1,500 gene 750 caddies handed
10:06:10over. 1 1500 gene remain. Currently, Su
10:06:14Chongqing has 5,000 gene of second grade
10:06:16spiritual rice in his possession. As for
10:06:19its lifespan, it's probably due to the
10:06:21mutated vegetables, more than last time,
10:06:23reaching 11,365
10:06:26days. The total lifespan is now 132,846
10:06:31days. That's equivalent to 363 years. Su
10:06:35Chongqing stood on the edge of the field
10:06:37pondering. Next, I should learn the wood
10:06:40concealment technique. Currently, my
10:06:42biggest weakness is my movement
10:06:44technique. There is a highle cultivation
10:06:46technique called the azure lotus
10:06:48creation technique. Offensive spells
10:06:50include the highle with spirit
10:06:52entanglement. Defensive spells include
10:06:54the advanced ironwood armor. Even the
10:06:57spirit rice wine has been replaced with
10:06:58a higher grade yellow rice wine. Then,
10:07:01instead of leaving, he took out a flint
10:07:03and steel. The pile of straw was set
10:07:05ablaze. I saw it before in Linkon by
10:07:08Wlu. There is a method of farming called
10:07:10slash and burn agriculture. Slash and
10:07:12burn agriculture means using tools to
10:07:14till the land in order to facilitate
10:07:16crop growth. However, because Hanu was
10:07:19involved, this method was optional. The
10:07:21meaning of fire is to turn straw into
10:07:24ash by burning it, which not only
10:07:26provides nutrients to the soil, but also
10:07:28clears weeds and even kills insect eggs.
10:07:31It can be used almost any time except
10:07:33winter. The only problem is the smoke is
10:07:36too strong. Although we have an insect
10:07:38killing array, we should save every
10:07:40penny we can. Such Chonqing was not an
10:07:42extravagant person. He was generous
10:07:44where he could be, but he had to be
10:07:46frugal where he could save. The insect
10:07:48killing array, also known as the golden
10:07:50killing array, is activated. Although it
10:07:53can easily kill pests. However, it will
10:07:55consume the spiritual energy in the
10:07:57spirit stone at the same time. It can
10:08:00also cause wear and tear on the
10:08:01spiritual artifacts buried underground.
10:08:03If pests can be prevented in daily life,
10:08:06then you can save on spirit stones,
10:08:08spirit artifacts, and gold spirit power.
10:08:10Moreover, its service life will be
10:08:12greatly extended. In total, this is all
10:08:15pure white spirit rice. Several more
10:08:17days passed like this. Leankai finally
10:08:20showed up. Without prior notification
10:08:22using communication symbols, they
10:08:23appeared directly riding on flying paper
10:08:26cranes. Such Chonqing couldn't help but
10:08:28ask, "Senior brother, how is it?" Li
10:08:31Sanankai waved his hand wearily. Give me
10:08:33some spirit rice wine to soothe my
10:08:35throat. Such Chonqing paused for a
10:08:37moment, then took out the second grade
10:08:39spirit rice wine from his small storage
10:08:41bag. There is yellow rice wine, but
10:08:44unfortunately, there isn't much of it,
10:08:45and I can't bear to drink it myself.
10:08:47Leankai took a big gulp of second grade
10:08:50spirit rice wine. Feeling completely
10:08:52refreshed, he then let out a long sigh.
10:08:54to help you contact your cousin. I
10:08:56personally went to Brahma City in the
10:08:58central region. Su Chongqing suddenly
10:09:01realized why the other party had been
10:09:02silent for so many days. Goodness. So he
10:09:05went out. I was deeply moved. Li
10:09:08Sanankai then smiled and said,
10:09:09"Regarding the golden rice spirit
10:09:11gathering rice, my cousin has already
10:09:13said that this mutated spirit rice is
10:09:15indeed useful to him, so he is willing
10:09:18to buy it." Su Chongqing grinned. Oh
10:09:20dear, we're<unk> all on the same side.
10:09:22It's too much to bring up money. Upon
10:09:25hearing this, Lissa's lips twitched
10:09:27several times. He didn't believe the
10:09:29other party's nonsense at all and then
10:09:31continued. Of course, it's not with
10:09:33spirit stones, but with two things in
10:09:35exchange for this golden rice spirit
10:09:37gathering rice. Two things. Su Chongqing
10:09:40was both surprised and curious. Li
10:09:42Sanankai took out a palms-sized object
10:09:44from his storage bag. It was a blue toy
10:09:46wooden boat. He then introduced it with
10:09:48great envy. This is a specialty of the
10:09:50central region called the demon would
10:09:53water avoiding boat. This treasure can
10:09:55not only fly in the sky but also move
10:09:57freely in the water. Its value far
10:09:59exceeds that of a mutated spiritual
10:10:01plant. Chapter 70. Receiving a year's
10:10:04worth of spirit rice. The ministry of
10:10:06punishments comes to the door. Chapter
10:10:0870. Receive a year's worth of spirit
10:10:10rice. Su Chongqing received it with both
10:10:12hands as the ministry of punishments
10:10:14came to his door and his palms
10:10:16immediately felt heavy. This seemingly
10:10:18small blue wooden boat was actually
10:10:20quite heavy, weighing at least several
10:10:22hundred kg, Liang Kai said in a deep
10:10:25voice. By infusing your blood and
10:10:28leaving a spiritual imprint, you will be
10:10:30able to freely control this demon would
10:10:32water avoiding ship. Su Chongqing nodded
10:10:35slightly upon hearing this and then
10:10:37forced a drop of blood out of his middle
10:10:39finger. The moment the blood dripped
10:10:41onto the surface of this demonic would
10:10:43water avoiding boat, it seeps in at a
10:10:45speed visible to the naked eye. It even
10:10:47produces tiny bubbles. Then the demon
10:10:50ship began to rock violently. It made a
10:10:52whimpering sound as if it had come to
10:10:54life. Spiritual energy imprint. Leankai
10:10:57quickly reminded him. Seeing this, Su
10:11:00Chongqing dared not let his guard down
10:11:02and hurriedly released his own spiritual
10:11:04power to inject into it. The moment
10:11:06blood and spiritual energy merge, a
10:11:09unique mark is immediately left behind.
10:11:11If someone else obtains this demon would
10:11:14water avoiding ship, there are only two
10:11:16ways to do so. One is to destroy the
10:11:18brand. One is to destroy the demon ship.
10:11:21At the same time, Su Chongqing felt as
10:11:23if a wisp of consciousness had been
10:11:25detached from him. I felt at one with
10:11:27the ship in my hands and all the
10:11:29information became clear and
10:11:30understandable. Demon with water
10:11:32avoiding boat. Effect one, advanced wind
10:11:35control. Effect two, advanced water
10:11:38repellency. Effect three, advanced
10:11:40durability. Effect four, devouring
10:11:43growth. Special effect locks onto
10:11:45location upon sensing demonic energy.
10:11:48Liengai asked curiously, "How is it?" Su
10:11:51Chongqing laughed and said, "It is
10:11:53indeed a good thing." Li Sanankai nodded
10:11:56slightly. This ship was found in the
10:11:58layer of a thousand-year-old demon that
10:11:59my cousin killed, so it must be of good
10:12:02quality. Of course, the reason they were
10:12:04so willing to spend so much is that they
10:12:06were willing to go to great lengths.
10:12:08It's because Su Chongqing was able to
10:12:10submit top grade spiritual rice. This
10:12:12alone is enough to make Lee Lingbai go
10:12:14all out. Su Chonqing couldn't help but
10:12:16ask, "Senior brother, how does this
10:12:18monster distinguish between the great
10:12:20king and the small king?" Li Sanankai
10:12:23immediately explained, "Monsters are not
10:12:25like us cultivators. Their realms are
10:12:27divided by their cultivation level." For
10:12:29about a hundred years, they were all
10:12:31minor demons. Around a thousand years
10:12:33later, they become great demons. He was
10:12:36known as the demon king for thousands of
10:12:38years. For 10,000 years, he has been
10:12:40revered as the demon emperor. Above them
10:12:43are immortal demon gods and even supreme
10:12:46progenitors. H. Such choning gasped
10:12:49after hearing this. From this
10:12:50perspective, monsters must be absolutely
10:12:53terrifying. The black rust dynasty
10:12:55situated in the central region must be
10:12:57in dire straits. Lisa's expression
10:13:00gradually turned serious and he said in
10:13:03a solemn tone, "Junior brother, we
10:13:05spirit farmers are protected by the
10:13:07immortal sect, so we don't know how
10:13:09dangerous the outside world is. Humans
10:13:11and monsters have been fighting each
10:13:13other for ages. Their relationship now
10:13:15as irreconcilable as fire and water.
10:13:18Monsters treat humans as food, believing
10:13:20that eating them increases their
10:13:22spiritual power. Humans need the core
10:13:24parts of demons to break through their
10:13:26limits. This trip has certainly
10:13:28broadened my horizons, senior brother.
10:13:31Such Choning<unk>s expression changed
10:13:32slightly after hearing this. I made up
10:13:34my mind that I would never run around
10:13:36recklessly again. At most, he would go
10:13:38to the market to sell spirit rice.
10:13:40It's<unk> too dangerous outside. It
10:13:42would be better to stay in the immortal
10:13:44sect and farm honestly. All right. Le
10:13:46Sanankai suddenly remembered something
10:13:48and said, "I can't give you this second
10:13:50thing right now." "What?" Such Choning
10:13:53looked puzzled. Li Sanankai shrugged. My
10:13:55cousin wants to give you a core part of
10:13:57a wood tribute monster, but he hasn't
10:13:59found a suitable one yet. I'm afraid
10:14:01we<unk>ll have to wait until he comes
10:14:02back. Su Chongqing waved his hand. I'm
10:14:05not in a hurry. Then this golden rice
10:14:07spirit gathering rice. Liengai blinked.
10:14:10Su Chongqing grinned. Please, senior
10:14:13brother. All the other spirit rice has
10:14:15been processed. Only this golden rice
10:14:17gathering spirit rice plant remains
10:14:20standing out from the crowd. Li Sanankai
10:14:22of course knew how to transplant so he
10:14:25immediately went over. Not long after he
10:14:27dug out the golden rice spirit gathering
10:14:29rice. He then greeted Su Chongqing and
10:14:32left on a flying paper crane. Watching
10:14:34senior brother Lee hurriedly leave
10:14:35again. Such Chonqing opened the small
10:14:38storage bag and peeked inside. The 100
10:14:40grains of golden rice spirit rice seeds
10:14:43emitted a dazzling golden halo. Yes, we
10:14:46definitely have to give it to them. But
10:14:48the value of golden rice gathering
10:14:49spirit rice is so high. We must leave
10:14:52some behind. However, next time we'll
10:14:54have to sell it somewhere else. The
10:14:56independent cultivator market in Doning
10:14:58City is a good choice. Next, Sue
10:15:00Chonqing put away the demon wood
10:15:03avoiding boat and then summoned the
10:15:04flying paper crane. Although there are
10:15:06new means of transportation, it is even
10:15:08better in every aspect such as speed and
10:15:11defense. But for him, keeping a low
10:15:13profile is key. Try to minimize your
10:15:16presence and avoid attracting anyone's
10:15:18attention. Then it controlled the paper
10:15:20crane to fly towards the core management
10:15:22office. When we arrived, the place was
10:15:24full of barren. Such Chongqing submitted
10:15:271,500 gene of second grade Lingi Rice. I
10:15:31successfully earned 375 points. Adding
10:15:34to the previous accumulation, the total
10:15:36is 1,600 points. Manager Such Chongqing
10:15:40bowed respectfully. Old man Hua
10:15:42recognized it immediately. It's you. Su
10:15:45Chongqing asked, "Can I directly receive
10:15:47a year's worth of rice seedlings?" Upon
10:15:49hearing this, Elder Hua replied, "Of
10:15:52course, as long as you can preserve it
10:15:54well. In fact, it's fine even if you
10:15:56don't come to collect the spirit
10:15:57seedling. Many barn farmers cultivate
10:15:59them in secret. Picking it up at the
10:16:01management office is just for
10:16:02convenience." Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes
10:16:04lit up. That's good. With the Azure
10:16:07Lotus Domain present, the spiritual
10:16:09plants you cultivate will mature ahead
10:16:11of time. Others plant four times a year,
10:16:13but he can plant five times. It may seem
10:16:16like only one extra time, but in
10:16:18reality, it adds 4,000 gene of grade 2
10:16:20spirit rice, and this doesn't even count
10:16:23as vegetables. Old Master Hua asked with
10:16:25a smile, "What realm are you at now?" Su
10:16:28Chongqing replied, "Late stage ofqi
10:16:30refining." After nodding slightly, Elder
10:16:33Hua asked, "What about the evergreen
10:16:35mantra?" Su Chongqing answered again,
10:16:37"Fourth floor. This cultivation speed is
10:16:40only considered normal in the spirit
10:16:42field. Not too fast, not too slow. Its
10:16:45only outstanding feature is its skill
10:16:47level, which can even be described as
10:16:49unconventional. Basically, formal
10:16:51disciples learn the wood spirit
10:16:53cultivation technique. However, since
10:16:55the other party can grow top quality
10:16:57spirit rice, these are not problems.
10:16:59Huao kindly reminded you when you get
10:17:02stuck at the chi refining perfection
10:17:03stage, you can go to the pill alliance
10:17:05to buy a foundation establishment pill.
10:17:08Okay. Such Chanqing smiled happily. Ha
10:17:11would never have imagined this. The
10:17:13person in front of me has long since
10:17:14reached the early stage of foundation
10:17:16establishment. Moreover, it skipped from
10:17:18the late stage ofQi refining to the peak
10:17:21ofqi refining. Not only was there no
10:17:23obstruction, but it was also incredibly
10:17:25smooth. Afterwards, Su Chongqing went to
10:17:28collect a year's worth of rice
10:17:29seedlings. This time, what appeared to
10:17:31be an inquiry to Elder Hua was actually
10:17:34a test of the special effects of the
10:17:35Azure Lotus Creation Technique. Special
10:17:38effect 5 reduces the aura emitted by
10:17:41oneself and the fluctuations caused by
10:17:43one's realm. In other words, as long as
10:17:45it's not intentionally leaked, even
10:17:47beings of a higher level would find it
10:17:49difficult to detect. From what we can
10:17:51see so far, unless Mr. Hua is acting, we
10:17:54really can't tell. After receiving the
10:17:56spring seedlings, Su Chongqing had just
10:17:58arrived at the palace gate when two
10:18:00people walked towards him. It's very
10:18:02familiar. One is Xiao Xiao, one is
10:18:04Xiaoing. All three were outer disciples
10:18:06who were officially admitted to the sect
10:18:08in the same batch. However, Su Chongqing
10:18:11thought the two would pretend not to
10:18:13know each other. After all, the last
10:18:15time at the Red Maple Valley Market
10:18:16wasn't very pleasant. Unexpectedly,
10:18:19Xiaoing took the initiative to greet
10:18:20him. fellow Daoist Su. Even Xiao Xio
10:18:24smiled and nodded. Good afternoon.
10:18:26It's<unk> clear that both of them are in
10:18:28a good mood. Uh hello everyone. Such
10:18:30Chaning was quite surprised. However,
10:18:32the three did not exchange many words
10:18:34and quickly went their separate ways. Su
10:18:37Chonqing summoned a paper crane which
10:18:39immediately flew towards his home.
10:18:41However, upon arrival, they found two
10:18:43people outside their door and they were
10:18:46all unfamiliar faces, one man and one
10:18:48woman. She looks very young. One of them
10:18:51is a disciple of the Imperial Water
10:18:52Pavilion. The other one has a purple
10:18:54lightning bolt pattern on its chest.
10:18:56Woof woof. The yellow dog, Wong Wong,
10:18:59barked as it frantically ran around the
10:19:01edge of the field. Behind them, a female
10:19:04disciple from the Imperial Water
10:19:05Pavilion holding a foxtail grass, chased
10:19:08after them excitedly, saying, "Little
10:19:10puppy, don't run away. Let Andy pet
10:19:13you." The male disciple watched
10:19:15speechlessly from the side, his lips
10:19:17twitching occasionally. Who are you two?
10:19:19Such Chongqing asked, controlling the
10:19:21flying paper crane to land, his mind on
10:19:24high alert. At this moment, the male
10:19:26disciple turned around, looking him up
10:19:28and down with a scrutinizing gaze, and
10:19:30introduced himself. I am Leil Lin Wu
10:19:33Wei, and that is Jeang Schwe from the
10:19:34Imperial Water Pavilion. We are both
10:19:36members of the Punishment Department,
10:19:38Ministry of Penalties. Su Chongqing
10:19:41looked astonished and couldn't help but
10:19:42ask, "What do you want with me?" Wooi
10:19:45countered, "What is your relationship
10:19:46with Jeangir, who is also a Lingong?"
10:19:49Chapter 71. Not panicking at all. A
10:19:51gathering of Dowist couples. Please urge
10:19:54for more updates. Chapter 71. Not
10:19:56panicked at all. The gathering of Daist
10:19:58couples. Please urge update. Su
10:20:00Chongqing felt a tightness in his heart,
10:20:02but quickly recovered. If they had
10:20:04evidence that they killed Jangir, then
10:20:06the people who came were definitely not
10:20:08two formal disciples. In any case, there
10:20:11will definitely be a manager or elder
10:20:13from the Department of Punishments
10:20:14accompanying them. Therefore, the person
10:20:16in front of you can only be suspicious
10:20:18at most, nothing more. Wui raised an
10:20:21eyebrow. Su Chongqing replied,
10:20:23"We're<unk> just acquaintances." Wui
10:20:25narrowed his eyes, a sharp glint in
10:20:27them, his expression playful. "But I
10:20:30heard you have a grudge against him."
10:20:31"What grudge?" Su Chonqing asked in
10:20:34return. "Uh" Wui was stunned. It is
10:20:37common knowledge that outer disciples
10:20:38are exploited by formal disciples. It
10:20:41cannot be made public otherwise it will
10:20:43cause unrest in the surrounding area.
10:20:45Therefore, even if it exists, it can
10:20:47only be treated as if it doesn't.
10:20:49Everyone follows this rule and no one
10:20:51dares to break it. Su Chongqing
10:20:54continued, "The four of us, Linen, Xiao,
10:20:56Xiao, and Xiaoing, were all formally
10:20:58accepted as disciples after passing
10:21:00senior brotherhangs assessment. At that
10:21:02moment, he decisively pulled the others
10:21:05into the water. To put it bluntly, if
10:21:07we're going to have doubts, let's all
10:21:08have doubts together. We must never fall
10:21:11into the trap of self-justification. If
10:21:13you follow the other person's rhythm,
10:21:15you'll definitely fall into a trap. Now,
10:21:17as long as no evidence can be produced,
10:21:19there is absolutely no problem. Although
10:21:22the two did have a dispute on the
10:21:23outskirts of the spirit field. However,
10:21:25after joining the core, there was
10:21:27virtually no communication. Wui frowned,
10:21:30still unwilling to give up, and said,
10:21:32"Someone saw you and him riding on the
10:21:34same giant flying sword, heading to the
10:21:36loose cultivator market together." Su
10:21:39Chongqing nodded. "We did indeed ride on
10:21:41the same giant flying sword." Wui
10:21:44immediately sneered. Then it matches up
10:21:46perfectly. Su Chongqing remained calm.
10:21:48Although I don't know what you're up to,
10:21:50if I remember correctly. Senior
10:21:52Brotherhang arrived later, and many
10:21:54people saw him. Wu Weii<unk>s cold smile
10:21:56froze instantly and his brows furrowed.
10:21:59Seeing that the other party was
10:22:00speechless, Su Chongqing took the
10:22:02initiative to ask, "What's wrong with
10:22:04senior brother Jeang Jang Air is
10:22:06missing?" At this moment, Jeang on the
10:22:09other side gave up chasing the dog and
10:22:11slowly approached, "What?" Su Chongqing
10:22:14was taken aback, then looked at the two
10:22:16people in front of him with a
10:22:17questioning gaze, asking as if to
10:22:19confirm, "Senior brotherh is missing."
10:22:22Seeing his reaction, Wui and Jeang Shua
10:22:25exchanged a glance and a look. Then Zang
10:22:28Shua nodded and said, "JZongair has not
10:22:30returned for more than two months since
10:22:32he went to the market for rogue
10:22:33cultivators. The people with him have
10:22:35also disappeared. We suspect they have
10:22:37all gone missing." Wui suddenly said,
10:22:39"It's possible he's dead." Su Chongqing
10:22:42was very dissatisfied. "Are you sick?
10:22:44Why are you cursing senior brother
10:22:46Jeang?" Yu Wui was choked and showed an
10:22:48angry expression. Seeing that the
10:22:50atmosphere was a bit awkward, Jeangu
10:22:52quickly stepped forward, waving her hand
10:22:54with a smile and saying, "All right, all
10:22:57right. We're just here for a routine
10:22:59inquiry, there's no need to make it so
10:23:01tense." Wui then suppressed his anger,
10:23:04but he was still a little annoyed.
10:23:06Perhaps to change the subject, Zangua
10:23:08pointed to the second grade spirit field
10:23:10next to her and said, "I see that the
10:23:12straw has been burned to ashes. It seems
10:23:14that you are using very primitive slash
10:23:16and burn agriculture." Su Chonqing
10:23:19nodded slightly. Yes. Jeangu said with
10:23:22regret. It's a bit of a waste. Su
10:23:24Chonqing looked at her in surprise. What
10:23:26do you mean? Jeangu immediately
10:23:28explained. Straw is also one of the raw
10:23:30materials for drawing talismans. If you
10:23:33keep it, we can make a deal this time. I
10:23:35see. Su Chongqing suddenly realized.
10:23:38Seeing that it was about time, Jeangu
10:23:40waved to Wui. All right, we've asked
10:23:42everything we needed to ask. Now we
10:23:44should go back and report. The two
10:23:46summoned a dark-coloed flying shuttle
10:23:48and then took off. This person is
10:23:50suspicious. Do you have any evidence?
10:23:53But it's just him and Jang Air. You
10:23:55think a mere mid-stage chi refining
10:23:57cultivator can kill three latestageqi
10:24:00refining cultivators, let alone a
10:24:01perfectqi refining cultivator? Strange.
10:24:04Jangir and you are members of the same
10:24:06cultivation family. Yet you don't care.
10:24:09If he's dead, I don't need to care about
10:24:11a dead man. If he's still alive, I care
10:24:14even less. The two then walked away.
10:24:16Such Chongqing watched them disappear
10:24:18into the horizon before turning his gaze
10:24:20away. Unexpectedly, it took more than
10:24:22two months for someone to look for Jeang
10:24:24Air and the others. However, he wasn't
10:24:27flustered at all. Not to mention that
10:24:29Jang Heir and the others died without
10:24:31leaving a trace. Even those things were
10:24:33cleaned up perfectly. The extra spirit
10:24:35stones and spirit rice were hidden at
10:24:37the foot of the Rocky Mountain on the
10:24:39other side. Even if the two of them were
10:24:41to open the small storage bag to check,
10:24:43they wouldn't find anything. No wonder
10:24:45Ziao Xiao and Xiaoing were in such a
10:24:47good mood. It turns out they already
10:24:48know that Jang Air is in trouble and has
10:24:51finally escaped his misery. Su Chongqing
10:24:54suddenly realized. Then he walked
10:24:55towards the Rocky Mountain. As soon as
10:24:57you get close, you can smell the
10:24:59fragrance of the mutated spirit rice.
10:25:01They hurriedly crawled into the hole.
10:25:03Upon reaching the depths, they saw rows
10:25:05of mutated spirit rice plants gleaming
10:25:08with golden light. Moreover, whether it
10:25:10is the mutated daughter rice or the
10:25:12mutated mother rice, all the rice ears
10:25:14are heavy. It's obvious at a glance that
10:25:16they're ripe and ready to be harvested.
10:25:18Su Chongqing released his spiritual
10:25:21sense immediately enveloping the area
10:25:23and carefully sensing it. Mature,
10:25:26undamaged, abundant spiritual energy.
10:25:29Yield 39.4 gene. Because there was one
10:25:32less plant, the yield was lower this
10:25:34time. Seeing this, Such Chaning paid no
10:25:37attention and immediately raised a
10:25:38sickle. Harvesting one mutant rice plant
10:25:41increases its lifespan by 10 days.
10:25:44Harvesting one mutant rice plant
10:25:46increases its lifespan by 10 days.
10:25:48Harvesting one mutant rice plant
10:25:50increases its lifespan by 10 days. The
10:25:53harvesting stopped only when only the
10:25:55mutated mother rice remained. A total of
10:25:5739.4 4 gene of mutated spirit rice was
10:26:00obtained. Life expectancy increased by
10:26:03980 days. The total lifespan reached
10:26:06133,825
10:26:09days. The mutated mother rice was simply
10:26:11the nine heavy ears of rice that were
10:26:13cut off from it. After finishing the
10:26:15task, Su Chongqing began to move the
10:26:17spiritual spring water and continuously
10:26:19irrigate the area. After confirming that
10:26:22everything was all right, he turned and
10:26:24walked out. The results have just come
10:26:26out. Buzz. A communication talisman in
10:26:28the small storage bag vibrated. Su
10:26:31Chongqing immediately took it out. It's
10:26:33me, Lao Su, why don't you return? Old
10:26:36Su, do you want a Daist partner? Oh, oh
10:26:39dear, I forgot you're so focused on
10:26:41farming that you don't care about what's
10:26:42going on outside. What exactly are you
10:26:44trying to say? At the end of Red Maple
10:26:46Valley, there is a sea of flowers. Every
10:26:49year when the flowers bloom, a gathering
10:26:51of spiritual roots is held, which is
10:26:53basically to find a dowist partner.
10:26:56Sorry, I'm not interested. If you're not
10:26:58interested, why don't you come with me?
10:27:00You haven't even grown your hair yet,
10:27:01and you're already looking for a dowist
10:27:03partner. You're still a baby. Finding a
10:27:05cultivation partner has nothing to do
10:27:07with age. The path to immortality is
10:27:10long, brother. All right, the harvest is
10:27:13just finished. I'll give you the spirit
10:27:14rice while I'm at it. Although Su
10:27:16Chongqing is not looking for a daist
10:27:18partner for the time being, and
10:27:20therefore has no interest in the
10:27:21gathering, he does indeed want to meet
10:27:23with Hubuay. The two agreed to meet
10:27:25tomorrow morning. Chapter 72. The Chio
10:27:28family of sorrowful wind cliff. Hubui's
10:27:31blind date. Chapter 72. The morning of
10:27:33the second day of Hubuay's blind date at
10:27:36the Chio family's bayon cliff. Su
10:27:38Chongqing rode the paper crane and flew
10:27:40towards the agreed upon place. Upon
10:27:42arrival, they immediately spotted Hubuay
10:27:45squatting by the roadside. To my
10:27:47surprise, this guy's outfit today is a
10:27:49bit greasy. She was already overweight
10:27:52and was wearing a light gold dress. It
10:27:54looks like a golden toad lying by the
10:27:56roadside. All 10 fingers on both hands
10:27:58were covered with jade rings. At first
10:28:00glance, it exudes an aura of astonishing
10:28:03wealth, but in reality, he was short and
10:28:06fat, which made him look like a dog
10:28:08instead of a tiger. This outfit made him
10:28:10look like a nouvo ree. Such Chan
10:28:12controlled the flying paper crane to
10:28:14land smoothly, then asked with a
10:28:16surprised look, "What's with your
10:28:17outfit?" "Me?" who Buguay patted the
10:28:20dust off his legs, then stood up and
10:28:22looked at the person in front of him
10:28:23with a scrutinizing, even critical gaze.
10:28:26You know you're going on a blind date
10:28:28today, yet you're still dressed like a
10:28:30farmer. Such Chongqing<unk>s lips
10:28:32twitched upon hearing this. You said it
10:28:34was a gathering yesterday, but now
10:28:36you're not even pretending anymore, are
10:28:37you? Hey. Hey. Huguay grinned foolishly.
10:28:41It's the same idea. Such Chonqing opened
10:28:43the small storage bag and handed over
10:28:46150 gene of spirit rice. This is your
10:28:48share. Upon seeing that it was top grade
10:28:51spirit rice again, who Buguay's eyes lit
10:28:53up. Old Sue, you're the best. The other
10:28:56guys who cooperated either made excuses
10:28:59or barely completed the assessment. Sure
10:29:01enough, Laos Su is the most reliable
10:29:03person. Then the two flew towards Red
10:29:06Maple Valley on paper cranes. Regardless
10:29:08of spring, summer, autumn, or winter,
10:29:11the towering maple tree in Red Maple
10:29:13Valley has remained unchanged. It
10:29:16remains lush and verdant. Each leaf is
10:29:18as tender as a baby's little hand. It
10:29:20makes a clapping sound whenever you get
10:29:22close, as if it's clapping and welcome.
10:29:25This time, however, their goal wasn't
10:29:27the market inside, but the sea of
10:29:29flowers at the end. As they drew closer,
10:29:31the valley suddenly opened up, revealing
10:29:34a vast grassland. The grass is lush and
10:29:36green. The blue waves ripple. A gentle
10:29:39breeze blew, creating ripples of green.
10:29:41As their view broadened, both of them
10:29:43felt more relaxed and at ease. Such
10:29:46Chongqing saw kites of various colors
10:29:48and shapes. Some resemble a drifting
10:29:50white cloud. Some resemble a menacing
10:29:53octopus. Some are small and exquisite,
10:29:56almost like they were just added to make
10:29:57up the numbers. But this wasn't a flower
10:30:00field, so I didn't see any people going
10:30:01on blind dates. As we continued forward,
10:30:04the fragrance of the flowers gradually
10:30:06intensified. Moreover, it's not a single
10:30:09flavor. Instead, it is rich in various
10:30:11nutrients. The flavors don't clash.
10:30:14Instead, they combine to create a rich
10:30:16fragrance. The refreshing taste
10:30:18completely relaxes the mind and body.
10:30:21We've arrived at the sea of flowers.
10:30:23Hubui cheered. Such Chonqing looked down
10:30:26at the scene. Below are endless wild
10:30:28flowers. They are colorful. They both v
10:30:30for attention and compliment each other.
10:30:32On the ground, various flying paper
10:30:35cranes and land mythical beasts were
10:30:37perched. More advanced options include
10:30:39flying shuttles and flying boats. There
10:30:41was even a huge cruise ship blocking the
10:30:43way. On the deck, there was a golden
10:30:45banner fluttering in the wind.
10:30:47Embroidered on it is a large black
10:30:49character resembling a dragon or snake.
10:30:52So, I never expected to run into the
10:30:54Chio family on this blind date. Hubuay
10:30:57was quite surprised. Such Chonqing
10:30:59asked, "What is the background of this
10:31:00Chio family?" Hubui replied, "You should
10:31:03know that besides the five major
10:31:05spiritual roots, there are several other
10:31:07kinds of unique spiritual roots, right?"
10:31:10Su Chanching nodded, "I know, wind,
10:31:12thunder, and stuff like that." Hubui
10:31:15pointed to the character Chu and said,
10:31:18"The owner of this ship is the renowned
10:31:19Chio family, the number one cultivation
10:31:22family of Bong Cliff." Basically, every
10:31:25spiritual route has a powerful
10:31:27cultivation family in Daunting. They are
10:31:29often deeply intertwined with the
10:31:31immortal sects and have long since
10:31:33become inseparable. For example, the
10:31:35leaf family of Yushu Pavilion, the Rome
10:31:38family of Lingon. But if we're talking
10:31:40about the most famous immortal
10:31:42cultivation family in the entire
10:31:44Daunting immortal sect, this Cho family
10:31:46definitely ranks in the top three. Su
10:31:49Chongqing frowned and said, "But I've
10:31:51never heard of it before." Hubuay said
10:31:53with envy, they wouldn't bother buying
10:31:55rice from our spiritual fields. The Chio
10:31:57family is the royal family of the Chiian
10:31:59Yuan dynasty, one of the five great
10:32:02dynasties of the Tianuan realm. I'll go,
10:32:04Such Chanqing was quite surprised. Hubay
10:32:08said meaningfully, "Do you think
10:32:09cultivating immortality relies solely on
10:32:12spiritual roots and comprehension?
10:32:14Someone of this caliber comes to a
10:32:16flower sea for a blind date." Such
10:32:18Chongqing raised an eyebrow. Hubui
10:32:20shrugged. Who knows? Then Su Chongqing
10:32:23controlled the paper crane to land. It
10:32:25has to be said that there are countless
10:32:27people here who come to find a blind
10:32:29date or more accurately to find a
10:32:31spiritual partner. It was clear to the
10:32:33naked eye that they were all handsome
10:32:34men and beautiful women. Each one
10:32:37looking radiant and glamorous. In
10:32:39contrast, Su Chongqing and Hubugay were
10:32:42somewhat of an oddity. One of them looks
10:32:43like a nevo ree, a young man, but with a
10:32:46rustic air about him. Since it was Su
10:32:48Chongqing<unk>s first time here, he
10:32:50asked, "What should we do?" Hubui
10:32:52scratched his head. I heard from other
10:32:54senior brothers that finding a dowist
10:32:56partner depends either on first
10:32:57impressions or on each other's needs.
10:33:00There are two types of dowist partners.
10:33:02One method is to hire a tauist
10:33:04companion. As the name suggests, it
10:33:06means hiring the other party by spending
10:33:08spirit stones or resources. Another
10:33:10option is to form a spiritual
10:33:12partnership. They can get married and
10:33:14have children and they can also support
10:33:16each other. Need? Su Chongqing pointed
10:33:18to the area with a large crowd ahead and
10:33:21asked, "Are you talking about that
10:33:22place?" Hubuay called out, "Why don't we
10:33:25go and see for ourselves?" Then the two
10:33:28moved towards the area with the most
10:33:29people, "Janat, how many kilograms of
10:33:32spirit rice do you produce per quarter?
10:33:34How many spirit stones do you earn per
10:33:36year? A weapon refining apprentice? Why
10:33:38aren't you controlling the giant sword?
10:33:40What are you doing here causing trouble?
10:33:42Entry-level talisman master. You've come
10:33:44here looking for your father, haven't
10:33:46you? Such Chongqing<unk>s beautiful
10:33:48fantasy shattered at this moment. I
10:33:50thought finding a Dowist partner would
10:33:52be a dreamlike scenario. Surprisingly,
10:33:54it turned out to be almost the same as
10:33:56haggling at a farmers market. Even here,
10:33:59those who frequently become Dowist
10:34:00partners are highly sought after. Those
10:34:02who come for the first time or newcomers
10:34:05with poor aptitude or low comprehension
10:34:07are all unwelcome. Moreover, it's not
10:34:10necessarily a case of a man seeking a
10:34:12woman or a woman seeking a man. There
10:34:14are also men who seek out other men,
10:34:16even women seeking other women. Su
10:34:18Chongqing suddenly recognized a face.
10:34:20Isn't that the handsome young man next
10:34:22to Lu Yu Yuan? It happened when I was
10:34:24attending Liing Ba<unk>s birthday
10:34:26banquet. Lu Yuan Yuan from Nshim is
10:34:28standing next to this handsome young
10:34:30man. Judging from the current situation,
10:34:32he should have been kicked out. However,
10:34:34there are a lot of people who like this
10:34:36guy. A group of people gathered around
10:34:38him regardless of gender. They would
10:34:40seize any opportunity to approach others
10:34:42and negotiate terms while Such Chan was
10:34:45at a loss for what to do. Hubuay seized
10:34:47the opportunity and approached a female
10:34:49disciple with an earth elemental route.
10:34:52Fellow Dowist, I see you have a
10:34:54beautiful face and a hot figure. How
10:34:56about we have a chat? Su Chongqing
10:34:58looked over curiously. This female
10:35:00disciple with the earth spirit route is
10:35:02fairly good-looking. She doesn't have a
10:35:03V-shaped face. She has a bit of baby
10:35:06fat. Her figure is more than just hot.
10:35:08It's downright voluuptuous.
10:35:10Unexpectedly, Hubuay likes this type. At
10:35:13this moment, the female disciple with
10:35:15the earth elemental root asked in
10:35:17return, "My name is Lin Su. What's
10:35:19yours?" "My name is Hubuay." Hubuay
10:35:22introduced himself cheerfully. Lin Su
10:35:24looked him up and down, "What kind of
10:35:26spiritual root do you have?" Hubuay
10:35:29blinked. Fire and metal duel spiritual
10:35:31roots. incompatible spiritual roots. Lin
10:35:35Su<unk>s expression became subtle. Hubui
10:35:37quickly replied, "Although our spiritual
10:35:40roots are incompatible, I'm in the
10:35:42spirit beast valley." Upon hearing about
10:35:44the spirit beast valley, Lin Su<unk>s
10:35:46attitude softened slightly. The spirit
10:35:48beast valley is indeed impressive. "Are
10:35:51you here to tame or breed spirit
10:35:52beasts?" Hubuay grinned and said
10:35:55confidently, "I sell spirit beast dong.
10:35:58Chapter 73, seven emotions and six
10:36:01desires." Chaopong forms the golden
10:36:03elixir. Chapter 73. Seven emotions and
10:36:06six desires. Cho forms the golden
10:36:09elixir. Ouch. Upon hearing this, Lin Su
10:36:12showed an extremely disgusted
10:36:14expression, fanning herself under her
10:36:16nose with her hand as she turned and
10:36:18left, not wanting to stay even for a
10:36:20moment. Hubuay stood there dumbfounded.
10:36:23Standing to the side, Su Chongqing said
10:36:25irritably, "You're really something.
10:36:27What's wrong? I really do sell manure."
10:36:30Hubuay retorted indignantly. Why did
10:36:32they leave? Su Chongqing said in a tone
10:36:35of disappointment. Isn't it because they
10:36:36looked down on you? What should we do
10:36:38then? Hubui asked, looking somewhat
10:36:41bewildered. Su Chongqing couldn't help
10:36:43but say, why don't you just say that you
10:36:45have business dealings with Linton?
10:36:47Although it still involves selling
10:36:48excrement, but at least it sounds
10:36:50high-end. Anyone who doesn't understand
10:36:52can easily be fooled. Hubuay seemed to
10:36:55understand something upon hearing this.
10:36:57What you said makes sense. Such Chanqing
10:37:00ignored the guy and scanned his
10:37:01surroundings. Suddenly, he saw a
10:37:04familiar face, short stature, walking on
10:37:06tiptoe. They were almost completely
10:37:08submerged in the crowd. Su Chongqing
10:37:11stepped forward and immediately pulled
10:37:12the other person out of the crowd. "Oh,
10:37:14fellow Daist Su," Binger exclaimed in
10:37:17surprise. Su Chongqing asked in
10:37:19surprise, "What are you doing here at
10:37:21such a young age?" Binger said
10:37:23helplessly. I came with my sister and
10:37:25senior sister, but we got separated
10:37:27while walking. Such Chongqing smiled and
10:37:30said, "Then don't go in and join the
10:37:32fun. You might end up getting lost
10:37:34instead of finding your sister." Binger
10:37:36rolled her eyes and huffed angrily.
10:37:38However, she really didn't dare to go
10:37:40into the crowd again. These people never
10:37:42lower their heads when they walk. They
10:37:43all look down on everyone else.
10:37:45Completely unaware that there were
10:37:47people below. My feet were stepped on
10:37:49several times. Where's Hubu? Such
10:37:52Chongqing scanned the area and found
10:37:53that the guy had disappeared. by Linger
10:37:55tilted her head and asked curiously.
10:37:58Fellow Daist Su, are you also here to
10:38:00find a Dowist partner? Su Chonqing shook
10:38:03his head. No, I'm with a friend. Binger
10:38:06pretended to know a lot. Oh, you don't
10:38:08need to deny it. It's<unk> normal to
10:38:10find a cultivation partner. Su Chonqing
10:38:12scoffed at this, too lazy to explain.
10:38:15Even if I were to look for someone, I
10:38:17would be very careful. First and
10:38:18foremost, you must never let your
10:38:20secrets be revealed. Secondly, the
10:38:22people you collaborate with must be
10:38:24someone you know very well. Binger
10:38:26reached out and poked at it. Um, can you
10:38:28bring some food? Upon hearing this, Su
10:38:31Chanqing took out two washed sweet
10:38:33potatoes from his small storage bag.
10:38:35Hand one to the other person. Keep one
10:38:37for yourself. Then the two of them
10:38:39stayed to the side eating sweet potatoes
10:38:41while waiting for someone. Bringing a
10:38:43child to find a dowist partner. Is this
10:38:45looking for a dowist partner or a
10:38:47stepmother? Try to understand. They have
10:38:49it tough too. Passers by always
10:38:52misunderstand the two of them. At this
10:38:54moment, Su Chanqing finally understood
10:38:56what it meant to laugh in anger. People
10:38:58really do laugh when they are powerless
10:39:00to refute or defend themselves. Binger
10:39:03reassured her. It's all right. It's all
10:39:05right. I'm used to it. Fortunately, Hubu
10:39:08appeared not long after. Not only him,
10:39:10but there was another person with him.
10:39:12Who? Ziao Zua, a foundation
10:39:15establishment stage fisherman I had met
10:39:17once before. Well, Hubui sighed and
10:39:20asked puzzled, "Senior brotherhia, why
10:39:22can't we find it?" Ziao Zufa fell into
10:39:25deep thought and after a long while, he
10:39:27said in a low voice, "If we can't<unk>t
10:39:28find it, we can't find it. At worst, we
10:39:31can go back to fishing." The two talked
10:39:33as they approached Su Chongqing. When
10:39:35Hubu saw by Linger, he asked in
10:39:37surprise, "Old Su, whose child is this?"
10:39:40Su Chanqing introduced, "You forgot this
10:39:43is by Linger from the Imperial Water
10:39:45Pavilion who helped bring rain to my
10:39:47spirit fields." Hubui suddenly realized,
10:39:50"Yes, I remember now." When Xiao Xiu saw
10:39:53Su Chongqing, his eyes lit up and he
10:39:56stepped forward to ask, "Did you bring
10:39:58any bait?" "What?" Su Chonqing
10:40:00subconsciously took a step back. Xiao Xi
10:40:03said excitedly, "Let's<unk> go fishing."
10:40:05"No, let's<unk> try our luck at Black
10:40:07Dragon Pool. Maybe we can catch a dragon
10:40:09fish." Su Chonqing quickly shook his
10:40:11head. I didn't bring it. Never mind
10:40:13then, Ziao Xua said with considerable
10:40:16regret. However, his words stirred
10:40:18something in Su Choning<unk>s heart.
10:40:20Fortunately, there is a demon with water
10:40:22avoiding boat that can be taken into the
10:40:24water. If you catch a dragonfish, you
10:40:27can sell it for at least 1,000 mid-grade
10:40:29spirit stones. Besides, we're not using
10:40:31inferior spirit rice wine. Now, it is a
10:40:34high-grade yellow rice wine that has
10:40:36reached the level of masterful
10:40:37craftsmanship. Just as Su Chongqing was
10:40:40pondering, two female disciples walked
10:40:42over from the other side. Baihu<unk>s
10:40:44voice rang out. Sister, I finally found
10:40:47you. By Linger hummed to herself, then
10:40:50complained, "None of you care about me.
10:40:52It's you." Such Chanqin and the female
10:40:54disciple beside Baijur spoke up almost
10:40:57simultaneously after regaining their
10:40:58senses. It turned out that the other
10:41:00party was Jeang from the Department of
10:41:02Penalties whom they had just met
10:41:04yesterday. I never expected to meet you
10:41:06here again. Zang Shu said with a smile.
10:41:08What a coincidence, fellow Daoist Su. I
10:41:11didn't expect the circle to be so small.
10:41:13Such Chanqing was also surprised. Xiao
10:41:16Zi asked, "Jang Shua, aren't you
10:41:18investigating the disappearance of
10:41:20Zangir from the clan?" Zang Shu
10:41:22shrugged. These two things don't
10:41:24conflict. Su Chongqing instantly became
10:41:26alert. Are Zang Shu and Jeangir from the
10:41:29same clan? Although they both share the
10:41:31surname Jeang, he didn't initially think
10:41:33in that direction. After all, one of
10:41:35them is in the spirit field. One is in
10:41:38the Imperial Water Pavilion. Thankfully,
10:41:40Ziao Ziua reminded me I must keep my
10:41:42distance from this woman from now on.
10:41:44Baiju recognized Su Chongqing. So, she
10:41:47pondered and said, "Fellow Daoist Su,
10:41:50you must be here looking for a Daist
10:41:51partner. Why don't you come with me?"
10:41:53Huh? Such Chanqing was takenback. Hubui
10:41:56and Xiao Xi stared wideeyed. He wore an
10:41:59expression of disbelief. They deserve
10:42:02better in terms of looks and
10:42:03temperament. Why was Su Chongqing, who
10:42:05was ordinary and unremarkable, chosen
10:42:08instead? Baijuer said half- jokingly. It
10:42:11just so happens that would generates
10:42:13fire. With your help, I will not only be
10:42:15able to develop a second spiritual
10:42:17route, but I will also have an endless
10:42:19supply of spiritual rice. Binger chimed
10:42:22in. That's right. That's right. If you
10:42:24follow my sister, you won't have to
10:42:26worry about foundation establishment
10:42:28pills anymore. Of course, the most
10:42:30crucial thing is from then on, I could
10:42:32eat whatever I wanted. Going to the
10:42:34other party's spirit field is like going
10:42:36home. You don't have to spend any money
10:42:38on food. Su Chongqing waved his hand
10:42:41awkwardly. Forget it. To become the
10:42:43other person's dowist partner, help them
10:42:45cultivate a second spiritual route, and
10:42:48even hand over spiritual rice. All that
10:42:50can be obtained are pills. No matter how
10:42:52you look at it, it's a loss. Moreover,
10:42:55he prefers to find a Dowist partner with
10:42:57a water elemental route. Suddenly, the
10:42:59ground shook. Countless cracks spread
10:43:02out in all directions like a spiderweb.
10:43:04What's going on? Everyone was startled
10:43:06but reacted quickly. They all soared
10:43:09into the air. Su Chongqing summoned a
10:43:11flying paper crane and took by Linger
10:43:13and Hubu with him. Ziao Ziua released a
10:43:16bubble and his whole body floated up.
10:43:18Jeang Shu and Baijuer stood on the back
10:43:20of another flying paper crane. Once
10:43:23things stabilized, everyone looked
10:43:24toward the source of the tremors. It
10:43:26turned out to be the Chio family's
10:43:28enormous pleasure boat. The banners
10:43:30above were flapping and twitching
10:43:32wildly. The next second, accompanied by
10:43:34a crisp crack. A figure crashed through
10:43:36the deck and was thrown into the air.
10:43:38Hubuay exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't
10:43:41that Chio foam, the little genius of the
10:43:43Chio family?" Jeang Schwe frowned. Isn't
10:43:46this person trying to break through to
10:43:48the Golden Corp stage? What's he doing
10:43:50here? At this moment, Chop stood in
10:43:52midair, his long black hair swaying in
10:43:55the wind. His eyes were incredibly
10:43:57complex, as if they contained every
10:43:59emotion imaginable. But if you look
10:44:02closely, you'll find an endless
10:44:03indifference deep in their eyes.
10:44:06Suddenly, Chofong spoke, his voice quite
10:44:08cold and sharp. The world is divided
10:44:11into nine streams, contains eight
10:44:13sufferings, gives rise to seven
10:44:15emotions, stirs six desires, originates
10:44:18from five colors, gives birth to four
10:44:20seasons, establishes the three realms,
10:44:23and arises from two origins, all from a
10:44:26single thought. Today, Chaoping will use
10:44:28the decadent winds generated by your
10:44:30seven emotions and six desires. Help me
10:44:33condense my golden core. Chapter 74. A
10:44:36demonic imperfection arises from the
10:44:38wind. Sword cultivator Chin Bailey.
10:44:41Chapter 74. The goofing creates demonic
10:44:43obstacles. Sword cultivator Chin Bailey
10:44:46circulates this sorrowful wind
10:44:47technique. Immediately, a feeling of
10:44:50compassion arose within me. It seemed as
10:44:52if they couldn't bear to see everyone
10:44:54separated by a transparent veil called
10:44:56desire. Two lines of clear tears
10:44:59silently fell from her complicated eyes.
10:45:01Immediately, he flicked his fingers and
10:45:03interlocked them. The emptiness seal is
10:45:06quickly formed. Thus am I emptiness and
10:45:08clarity are one. Thus it is dependent
10:45:11origination is emptiness. The cause of
10:45:14today is the effect of tomorrow. As long
10:45:16as you follow your heart, impermanence
10:45:18is also a kind of constancy. The wind is
10:45:21coming. Uggh. A strong wind is rising.
10:45:24An invisible wind tore the earth apart
10:45:27instantly destroying the sea of flowers.
10:45:30From the cracks, a foul smelling earth
10:45:32vapor billowed out like smoke. Everyone
10:45:34in the air fell to the ground. However,
10:45:37the most dangerous thing is not the fall
10:45:38itself. After landing, everyone's eyes
10:45:41gradually became glazed over. Regardless
10:45:43of gender, male, male, or female female,
10:45:46they all locked onto their targets
10:45:48immediately. Something's not right. Such
10:45:50Choning<unk>s expression changed
10:45:52drastically. He only felt that certain
10:45:54aspects were constantly expanding. His
10:45:56breathing became heavy. A strong desire
10:45:58welled up from the depths of my heart.
10:46:00It's as if they're trying to tear apart
10:46:02the cloak called morality. Fortunately,
10:46:05at this moment, the accompanying blue
10:46:07lotus released a refreshing coolness.
10:46:09All the original distracting thoughts
10:46:11and desires were instantly cleared away.
10:46:14The problem is Such Chongqing is fine,
10:46:16but there were by Linger, by Jeang
10:46:19standing nearby. Whether one is
10:46:21cultivating chi or establishing the
10:46:23foundation, one's mind is like a lone
10:46:25boat on a vast ocean. Baptized by the
10:46:28storm, it is constantly shaken.
10:46:30Ultimately, he instinctively moved
10:46:32closer to Su Chongqing, who was stunned.
10:46:36Ziao Xiua was dumbfounded. The two of
10:46:38them were quite looking forward to it.
10:46:40At this moment, similar scenes are all
10:46:42around us. Yes, that's it. Don't resist.
10:46:45Release the desires deep within your
10:46:47heart. Chopangs nostrils twitched as he
10:46:49greedily inhaled the surging, decadent
10:46:52wind. With each swallow and exhale, my
10:46:54heart trembled. Both physiologically and
10:46:57psychologically, an unprecedented sense
10:46:59of pleasure surged forth. Wisps of black
10:47:02wind emanated from every pore of his
10:47:04body. In the blink of an eye, it
10:47:06transformed into a black net that
10:47:08enveloped Chauffing. Just then, the
10:47:10heavens and earth resounded. The hissing
10:47:13sounds of air being cut rang out one
10:47:15after another. A golden light, like the
10:47:17sun, surged in from afar. The wind tried
10:47:20to stop it, but it turned into layers of
10:47:22invisible barriers. However, the
10:47:25dazzling golden light was overwhelming
10:47:27and could not be stopped. Insolence. A
10:47:29man's cold, sharp voice boomed like
10:47:32thunder. The dazzling golden light
10:47:34severed the invisible hand that was
10:47:36manipulating everyone. The previously
10:47:38days crowd regained consciousness.
10:47:40Binger asked bewildered, "What happened
10:47:43to me?" Byer<unk>'s pupils contracted
10:47:45slightly. "Has my desire been ignited?"
10:47:48Jeang cheeks flushed. She gently bit her
10:47:50lip with her pearly teeth. The look in
10:47:52his eyes as he looked at the person in
10:47:54front of him was quite complicated. What
10:47:56a pity. Su Chanqing felt both fortunate
10:47:58and regretful. What's going on? Holy
10:48:01crap. I was actually hugging a guy.
10:48:03Choping. You deserve to die. I will make
10:48:06you pay a hundfold for the humiliation
10:48:08you have suffered today. Why are you
10:48:10angry? Chopong is clearly a saint. Once
10:48:13they recovered, everyone looked upwards.
10:48:15Chopang<unk>s face was very strange. The
10:48:18person on the left is laughing. The
10:48:20person on the right is crying. He
10:48:21appeared to be insane. Anyone who sees
10:48:23him will say, "Something's not right
10:48:25with this kid." Directly opposite Chop
10:48:28Foam, another person was floating,
10:48:30dressed in white, with sword-like
10:48:32eyebrows and bright eyes. He is tall and
10:48:34handsome. But behind him was a huge
10:48:36golden sunflower. If you look closely,
10:48:38you'll find that there are no seeds
10:48:40inside this sunflower. Instead, they
10:48:42were small, finger-length swords, each
10:48:45containing an astonishing sharpness.
10:48:47Xiao Xiwa exclaimed in surprise, "Qin
10:48:49Bailey, who?" Su Chongqing pressed. Zang
10:48:52Shuetuin, who was standing next to him,
10:48:55gradually lost her composure and began
10:48:57to introduce him. This person is Chin
10:48:59Bailey, a sword genius who condensed a
10:49:02great earth golden core before the age
10:49:03of 30 and ranked first among the core
10:49:06disciples of the Daing immortal sect.
10:49:08Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing asked
10:49:10thoughtfully, "How does Leing compare to
10:49:12him?" No one answered this. After all,
10:49:15Chin Bailey was right in front of them.
10:49:17Who dares to speak out of turn? Su
10:49:19Chanqing realized what was happening and
10:49:21quickly shut up. At this moment, Chin
10:49:23Bailey spoke up. Chop Foam, I thought
10:49:26you came to the flower sea just to relax
10:49:28after failing to condense a low-grade
10:49:30golden core, but I never expected that
10:49:32it would cause you to develop demonic
10:49:34obstacles. Demon? Shong asked with a
10:49:37half smile. Chin Bailey said coldly.
10:49:39Look at the awful state you've become.
10:49:42Xong didn't even look at it, but instead
10:49:44roared. I am the most talented young man
10:49:46in the royal family and a little genius
10:49:48admired by everyone. Why should I fail
10:49:50to condense a great earth golden core?
10:49:53Tell me on what grounds. Chin Bailey
10:49:55frowned. Not everyone can succeed.
10:49:57Chopong questioned, "What makes you
10:49:59think you can succeed?" "Iqin Bailey was
10:50:02speechless on the ground." Su Chongqing
10:50:05couldn't help but shake his head. He
10:50:07suddenly understood why Chopong had gone
10:50:09mad. Sometimes praising someone too
10:50:11highly isn't necessarily a good thing.
10:50:13If you're talking about ordinary
10:50:15cultivators, then failure is failure.
10:50:17It's hard to accept, but I have no
10:50:19choice but to accept it. Who is Kofing?
10:50:22A young prodigy admired by many, the
10:50:24most talented among the young people in
10:50:26the Chio family. It has attracted the
10:50:28attention of countless people. It has
10:50:30countless resources to support it. Who
10:50:32would have thought that the attempt to
10:50:33condense a low-grade golden pill would
10:50:35fail? The impact of such a disparity is
10:50:38enough to destroy many people. Moreover,
10:50:40Chop Foam was born arrogant. In this
10:50:43way, everyone finally understood why
10:50:45this had happened. I thought the Cho
10:50:47family came here to find a Dowist
10:50:48partner. I didn't expect something big
10:50:50to happen. Fortunately, Shin Bailey
10:50:53arrived in time, otherwise a major
10:50:55disaster would have occurred. At this
10:50:57moment, Xopong said impatiently, "Don't
10:50:59stop me. I'll condense my golden core
10:51:01right away." Upon hearing this, Chin
10:51:04Bailey's expression turned disappointed,
10:51:06his eyes instantly sharpening. If you
10:51:08still don't realize your mistake, then I
10:51:10have no choice but to kill you. The word
10:51:13kill was uttered. The sunflowers behind
10:51:15him suddenly trembled. The small short
10:51:18swords all emitted a clang. The sharp
10:51:20sword intent instantly enveloped the
10:51:22area. Those who are in it feel nothing
10:51:24but dread. Every single one of them pald
10:51:26drastically. Fortunately, it wasn't
10:51:28directed at them. Chin Bailey turned his
10:51:30head and said, "You should leave
10:51:32immediately. The Chio family will make
10:51:34compensation for this matter. Let's go."
10:51:37Su Chongqing called out, regaining
10:51:39control of the slightly damaged paper
10:51:41crane. But this time, everyone's
10:51:43reactions were different. Baiju clung
10:51:45tightly to her younger sister by Linger,
10:51:47refusing to let go. Zang Shua followed
10:51:50instinctively, only stopping when she
10:51:52realized the B sisters hadn't moved.
10:51:54Hubui and Xiao Xiua, on the other hand,
10:51:57did not have such concerns. The three of
10:51:59them got up on a flying paper crane and
10:52:01left without stopping. In an instant,
10:52:04everyone present ran towards Red Maple
10:52:06Valley. Use your means of transportation
10:52:08if you have them. Those without a means
10:52:10of transportation have no choice but to
10:52:12walk. They had already separated by tens
10:52:14of thousands of meters. Suddenly, a loud
10:52:17boom came from behind. Everyone turned
10:52:19around and their pupils shrank
10:52:21instantly. The golden sunflowers
10:52:23transformed into a dazzling sun, soaring
10:52:26into the sky. Countless tiny short
10:52:29swords radiated out like the rays of the
10:52:31sun. Its power was so terrifying that it
10:52:34instantly wiped out the entire area. Su
10:52:36Chongqing<unk>s eyes widened. The power
10:52:38of the golden core is terrifying.
10:52:41Chapter 75. Planting spirit rice in
10:52:43summer. Jeang test. Chapter 75. Planting
10:52:47spirit rice in summer. Jeang probing
10:52:49above the clouds. The immortal bows his
10:52:52head. Another one who has fallen into
10:52:54demonic possession. This is the third
10:52:56time in a hundred years. Shoping<unk>s
10:52:58aptitude is not bad. Could he save his
10:53:00life? Demonic energy is invisible. It
10:53:03can only be eliminated by possessing a
10:53:05host. So, it seems the things below
10:53:07won't be able to hold up. Upon entering
10:53:10Red Maple Valley, Su Chongqing and his
10:53:12two companions did not linger. Instead,
10:53:15it flew straight to the fork in the road
10:53:17near Link before stopping. Then, one by
10:53:20one, they were panting heavily, still
10:53:22shaken. Hubui exclaimed in amazement.
10:53:25The golden core is terrifying. Ziao Xiua
10:53:28said seriously. Only by reaching the
10:53:30golden core stage can one have enough
10:53:32spiritual power to activate earth rank
10:53:34spells. As Su Chongqing examined the
10:53:37damaged flying paper crane, he asked,
10:53:39"Was Chin Bailey's attack just now a
10:53:41low-level spell?" However, Ziao Xi shook
10:53:44his head. No, that was just a casual
10:53:46strike from his magic weapon. Upon
10:53:48hearing this, Su Chongqing and Hubu
10:53:51exchanged a glance. They both saw the
10:53:53shock in each other's eyes. A casual
10:53:55strike from a golden core cultivator
10:53:57could cause such terrifying damage. Ziao
10:53:59Zua glanced at the two of them and
10:54:01reminded them, "What happened today will
10:54:03definitely alarm the immortal master. If
10:54:06anyone comes to inquire, try not to
10:54:08offend the Cho family. Although this
10:54:09matter affected many formal disciples,
10:54:12but the Cho family is ultimately backed
10:54:14by the Chin Yuan dynasty. Chopong is not
10:54:17the only member of the Donging immortal
10:54:19sect, not to mention core disciples.
10:54:21There are even true disciples. These
10:54:23cultivators who have no background or
10:54:25power are simply not to be offended. Of
10:54:28course, neither Su Chongqing nor Hubu
10:54:31were fools. Ziao Xua thought for a
10:54:33moment, then tentatively asked, "How
10:54:35about we go fishing?" before Su
10:54:38Chongqing could speak. Even Hubu
10:54:40couldn't help but ask, "After something
10:54:42like this happened, you still have the
10:54:44mood to go fishing?" Ziao Xiaua pouted
10:54:46and said, "If you're not going, I will."
10:54:49He then walked toward the river where he
10:54:50had been fishing. After Ziao Xiua had
10:54:52walked away, Hubuguay called out with a
10:54:55playful expression, "Old Su." Su
10:54:58Chonqing looked at him in confusion.
10:55:00Hubuay blinked and asked curiously,
10:55:02"What does it feel like?" Su Chonqing
10:55:04was even more confused. What? What
10:55:07feeling? Plain dumb. Hubuay glared at
10:55:09him. I saw it with my own eyes. Those
10:55:12three girls were all clinging to you.
10:55:14Cough. Such Chanin gave an awkward
10:55:16smile. I was too nervous at the time, so
10:55:19I didn't feel anything. Hubui raised an
10:55:22eyebrow, looking puzzled, and said,
10:55:24"That's strange. Old Xiao and I are both
10:55:26so handsome and dashing. Why do they all
10:55:28choose you?" Upon hearing this, Such
10:55:31Chanqing looked the golden toad up and
10:55:33down. His lips twitched uncontrollably
10:55:35several times. Hubu is acting like a
10:55:38nouvo ree now. Xiao Ziwa also has a
10:55:41pedantic scholarly air about him. Each
10:55:43one is more abnormal than the last. Of
10:55:45course, Su Chongqing didn't think he was
10:55:47really charming. He suspected it was
10:55:49caused by the spiritual root or the
10:55:51accompanying green lotus. First of all,
10:55:54by Linger and Jeang both have water
10:55:56elemental roots. Water nourishes wood
10:55:58and they are instinctively drawn to each
10:56:00other. Byer, although she has a fire
10:56:03elemental root, wood can generate fire
10:56:05and they will also attract each other.
10:56:07The two chatted for a while at the
10:56:09crossroads before going their separate
10:56:10ways. Hubuay headed to the spirit beast
10:56:13valley. Such Chongqing returned to
10:56:15Linkion. Who would have thought that
10:56:17attending a party would almost lead to
10:56:19losing one's virginity? It seems I can't
10:56:21go too far away from now on. Just wander
10:56:23around the Lion area. After all, it's
10:56:26unbelievable to encounter such an
10:56:28outrageous thing, even within the
10:56:29immortal sect. If we go outside, who
10:56:32knows what might happen. In the days
10:56:34that followed, Su Chongqing behaved
10:56:36himself. He refused Hubu<unk>s
10:56:38invitation to go fishing. Stay home
10:56:40whenever possible and avoid going out
10:56:42unless absolutely necessary. As the
10:56:44temperature rises day by day, summer has
10:56:46finally arrived. The cicada's chirping
10:56:48grew increasingly noisy. At this moment,
10:56:51Su Chongqing wearing a straw hat stood
10:56:54on the edge of the field. He just
10:56:55contacted by Linger and asked her to
10:56:57come and bring rain. Judging by the time
10:57:00estimate, we should be arriving soon.
10:57:02Actually, spring is fine because there
10:57:04is spring rain, so the water spirit
10:57:06route is not needed much. But once
10:57:08summer arrives, as the temperature
10:57:09rises, you have to use the small cloud
10:57:12rain technique at least three times.
10:57:14Based on current market prices, the
10:57:16reward for one use is equivalent to 20
10:57:18caddies of second grade spirit rice. It
10:57:21should have been higher, but since they
10:57:22were acquaintances, therefore, the
10:57:24compensation is negotiable. Just then, a
10:57:27shadow suddenly drifted over. Woof woof.
10:57:30The yellow dog Wong Wong suddenly
10:57:32started barking. Fellow Dowist Su. At
10:57:35the same time, a familiar voice rang out
10:57:37from above. Su Chongqing looked up and
10:57:40was immediately stunned. Zang Shu. I
10:57:42clearly contacted Binger. Why is it this
10:57:45person coming? Seemingly noticing his
10:57:47confusion, Zang Shu lowered the shuttle
10:57:49and explained, "Baihuer wouldn't allow
10:57:51her sister to come here. So, Junior
10:57:53Sister Linger asked me to help." "Uh, Su
10:57:56Chongqing was taken aback." Jeanga asked
10:57:59with a light laugh, "Not welcome." Su
10:58:01Chongqing quickly waved his hand. No, as
10:58:04long as someone comes to bring rain,
10:58:06that's fine. After examining the spirit
10:58:08field, Jeang gently raised her jade-like
10:58:11hand. In an instant, the water elemental
10:58:13power within his body surged forth.
10:58:16Instantly, a cloud of black mist rapidly
10:58:18gathered above the spirit field. Such
10:58:20Chongqing was surprised. This person's
10:58:23little cloud rain technique is stronger
10:58:25than Bingeras. And not just a little
10:58:27bit, one is slightly black. One of them
10:58:29has already turned black. The difference
10:58:31is visible to the naked eye. In the
10:58:33blink of an eye, it started to rain.
10:58:35Moreover, there is more rain and more
10:58:37spiritual energy. Nourished by the
10:58:39spiritual rain, the rice seedlings and
10:58:41vegetables in the spiritual field
10:58:43stretched out as if they were breathing.
10:58:45At this moment, Zang Shu asked casually,
10:58:48"Fellow Distu, I heard you know Jeang
10:58:50Su." Su Chongqing nodded, "Yes, I do
10:58:53know Senior Brotherhang. He helped me
10:58:55when I first joined the core of the
10:58:57spirit field." Jeang Schu continued,
10:59:00"Did you know that Jang Su and Jong
10:59:01Airir are cousins?" Su Chongqing
10:59:04replied, "I know. From the moment
10:59:06appeared and Jang Su ended the
10:59:08cooperation." He guessed it. To be
10:59:10honest, I was very annoyed with Jeang
10:59:12Air, but he had no complaints about Jean
10:59:14Su. I am even very grateful. After all,
10:59:17they did help me. There was no
10:59:19withholding of spirit stones or anything
10:59:21like that. The only pity is that I can
10:59:23no longer harvest lifespan from the
10:59:25other party's spiritual field. Jeang Shu
10:59:28said with a half smile. Jang air Jang Su
10:59:31and I come from the same cultivation
10:59:33family. Su Chongqing frowned. I don't
10:59:35care about that. That's good. Shuen
10:59:38nodded slightly, seemingly quite
10:59:40satisfied with the answer. Before long,
10:59:42the lesser cloud rain technique was
10:59:44completed. She didn't linger. After
10:59:46receiving her payment, she quickly drove
10:59:48away in her shuttle. Seeing that no one
10:59:50was around, Su Chanqing immediately
10:59:52waved his hand. The accompanying blue
10:59:55lotus flew away with a drip drip. It
10:59:57landed steadily in the very center of
10:59:59the spirit field and then the azure
11:00:01lotus domain unfolded. Immediately the
11:00:04spiritual plants which were already
11:00:06nourished by the spiritual rain began to
11:00:08grow slowly visible to the naked eye.
11:00:11Judging from the current progress, it
11:00:13should be ready in about 2 months. As a
11:00:15result, this year's output is likely to
11:00:17exceed 20,000 gene. Suddenly, Jeang's
11:00:21words echoed in my ears again. Su
11:00:23Chongqing took off his straw hat,
11:00:25fanning his face as he asked in
11:00:27surprise, "What exactly does she mean?"
11:00:29Chapter 76. Teasing the yellow dog and
11:00:32getting a free dinner. Chapter 76.
11:00:34Teasing the yellow dog, getting a sizzle
11:00:36of dinner. The incessant chirping of
11:00:38cicas could be heard from overhead from
11:00:40time to time. Su Chongqing leaned
11:00:42against a popular tree, a blade of green
11:00:45grass dangling from his mouth. With a
11:00:47bite, the bitter taste immediately melts
11:00:49in your mouth. But instead of spitting
11:00:51it out, he savored it carefully. Wong
11:00:53Wong squatted in front, tilted its head
11:00:56back, and gave a frantic look. Seeing
11:00:58this, Su Chongqing lazily raised his
11:01:00left hand and placed it above its head,
11:01:03but instead of lowering it, he pretended
11:01:05to stroke it from a distance of about 3
11:01:06in. Out of instinct and trust, Wong Wong
11:01:10squinted its eyes and showed an
11:01:11expression of enjoyment. Even its tail
11:01:14began to wag from side to side,
11:01:16revealing its inner joy. However, the
11:01:19joy lasted only 3 seconds before I
11:01:21suddenly realized something was wrong.
11:01:23Even though the owner is stroking it,
11:01:25"Why can't I feel anything?" The
11:01:27pleasure derived from the scraping of
11:01:28the scalp and hair did not occur. With a
11:01:31question in its mind, it turned its head
11:01:33to look back. Su Chongqing maintained
11:01:35the stroking posture, seemingly without
11:01:37any problem. Suddenly, Wong Wong began
11:01:40to doubt himself. Is it because of an
11:01:42incorrect posture when getting out of
11:01:43bed? Did you not eat enough just now?
11:01:45Are you feeling sleepy? His little head
11:01:47was full of big question marks. Just
11:01:50then, it looked up unintentionally and
11:01:52was immediately dumbfounded. Although Su
11:01:54Chongqing<unk>s hand made a stroking
11:01:56motion, it didn't actually touch the
11:01:58ground. Woof woof. Realizing it had been
11:02:00tricked, Wong Wong barked angrily. Such
11:02:03Chonqing grinned. Haha, idiot. The man
11:02:05and the dog teased each other for a
11:02:07while. Suddenly, Su Chonqing felt the
11:02:10spiritual energy in his dantion
11:02:12gradually dwindling. He knew that the
11:02:14cultivation of Chinglian in this field
11:02:15was coming to an end. Therefore, he got
11:02:17up from under the shade of the popular
11:02:19tree and walked step by step toward the
11:02:21second grade spirit field. In summer,
11:02:23the combination of high temperatures and
11:02:25sun exposure along with a lack of water
11:02:28can cause problems. The spiritual plant
11:02:30will enter a listless state. In human
11:02:32terms, it would be lazy and listless.
11:02:35Simply hydrating is helpful, but not
11:02:37much. This is normal in a phase that
11:02:39must be experienced during the summer.
11:02:41Even mutated spiritual plants at the
11:02:43foot of the Rocky Mountain without being
11:02:45exposed to the sun can still exhibit
11:02:48this condition, albeit with milder
11:02:50symptoms. Fortunately, thanks to the
11:02:52help of the Azure lotus domain, these
11:02:54spiritual plants do not require a long
11:02:56maturation period. Based on the current
11:02:59situation, it should be ready for
11:03:00harvest in about 2 months. Su Chongqing
11:03:03reached out and the accompanying green
11:03:05lotus flew back into his hand. He
11:03:08couldn't help but say, "During this
11:03:10period, I almost exhausted the spiritual
11:03:12power in my cheese seat every day, but I
11:03:14didn't expect my strength to increase
11:03:16instead. Compared to when I first broke
11:03:18through to the early stage of foundation
11:03:20establishment, the spiritual energy in
11:03:23my chi has increased from one drop to
11:03:25five drops, there has been a certain
11:03:27improvement in quantity, quality, and
11:03:30concentration. Nowadays, Su
11:03:32Chongqing<unk>s desire for higher realms
11:03:34is not as strong as it was during theQi
11:03:36refining stage. The only enemy, Jangir,
11:03:39was dealt with. The subsequent
11:03:41investigations by the immortal sect and
11:03:43the Jeang family came to nothing. Now,
11:03:46as long as you farm well, everything
11:03:47will fall into place naturally. At that
11:03:50moment, a vibration came from the small
11:03:52storage bag. Su Chongqing quickly took
11:03:54out a communication talisman that was
11:03:56flashing with light. Hello, Junior
11:03:59Brother Su. Have you forgotten
11:04:00something? Forgot what? You promised to
11:04:02help me harvest the rainbow orchid. It's
11:04:05not just forgotten. It's been more than
11:04:06half a year. The orchids are ripe. Are
11:04:09you coming? Okay, I'll be right there.
11:04:11Such Chonqing then placed the
11:04:13communication talisman into his small
11:04:15storage bag. If it weren't for senior
11:04:17brotherly, reminding him he would have
11:04:19forgotten about this matter long ago.
11:04:21They stay at home all day, tending to
11:04:23their own little plot of land. Sometimes
11:04:25you really don't realize how fast time
11:04:27flies. I glanced at the sund dial. It
11:04:29was the hour of way, 1 to 3:00 p.m.
11:04:32It's<unk>s equivalent to 300 p.m. in the
11:04:34previous life. It's neither too early
11:04:36nor too late. Such Chongqing did not set
11:04:39off immediately. Instead, a sly glint
11:04:42flashed in his eyes. If you go now, you
11:04:44can finish harvesting the rainbow orchid
11:04:46before it gets dark. If we go later, it
11:04:48will be dark by the time we finish.
11:04:50Surely, Senior Brotherly can't just
11:04:52leave us without even providing dinner.
11:04:54Therefore, Su Chongqing kept teasing the
11:04:57dog and catching the chicken,
11:04:58deliberately dragging it out until
11:05:00Shunure 3 to 5:00 p.m. before
11:05:02controlling the damaged paper crane to
11:05:04fly towards Li Sansai's spirit field. By
11:05:07the time we arrived, the sun was already
11:05:09setting in the west. The temperature was
11:05:11no longer scorching. Lissa's situation
11:05:13here is not much different from before.
11:05:15Two spiritual fields of the same size
11:05:18are adjacent to each other. They were
11:05:19planting spirit rice on one side. One
11:05:22side is planted with orchids. However,
11:05:24one golden mutated spirit rise plant on
11:05:27the left is particularly eye-catching.
11:05:29It was obviously the one that Su
11:05:30Chongqing sold back then. It seems like
11:05:32they're taking very good care of them.
11:05:34It is fuller than before. In fact, to
11:05:37prevent the surrounding ordinary spirit
11:05:39rice from stealing the nutrients from
11:05:40the mutated spirit rice. Lienkai also
11:05:43cleaned up a small area. All the
11:05:45previously planted sacred rice plants
11:05:46were uprooted. Why are you so late?
11:05:49Lienkai asked puzzled. Such Chongqing
11:05:51had already prepared an excuse. As you
11:05:54know, I have a yellow dog at home. This
11:05:56guy wanders around aimlessly, and it
11:05:58took me a long time to find him. Li
11:06:00Sanankai listened without suspicion and
11:06:02urged, "Then let's not delay and start."
11:06:05"All right." Such Chongqing took out his
11:06:07sickle and stepped forward. As usual,
11:06:09let's first take a closer look and feel
11:06:11it. Previously, he was activating the
11:06:13evergreen technique. Now, spiritual
11:06:16awareness is more useful. Not only is it
11:06:18meticulous, but it can also serve as a
11:06:20form of exercise. Of course, the most
11:06:23important thing is that it can still
11:06:24perceive information. Colorful orchid,
11:06:27mature, no damage, abundant spiritual
11:06:30energy. Today's highlights, top quality
11:06:32item in 2 days. If Su Chongqing
11:06:35remembered correctly, it was when he
11:06:37helped with the harvest last time. It
11:06:38seems to be a top quality item in 3
11:06:41days. In other words, after these 6
11:06:43months, Lysansai's evergreen technique
11:06:45or with spirit cultivation technique
11:06:47should have been improved again. It
11:06:49seems the day to harvest the finest
11:06:51orchids is not far off. Harvesting one
11:06:54premium variegated orchid will increase
11:06:56its lifespan by 5 days. Harvesting one
11:06:59premium variegated orchid will increase
11:07:01its lifespan by 5 days. Harvesting one
11:07:04premium variegated orchid will increase
11:07:06its lifespan by 5 days. As time went by,
11:07:09the sun's rays grew increasingly dim and
11:07:12yellowish. Such Chonqing was not in a
11:07:14hurry at all. On the contrary, he
11:07:16deliberately slowed down the pace. They
11:07:19harvested the last orchid only when the
11:07:21last rays of the sun were faintly
11:07:22visible in the west. This time, the
11:07:25lifespan is granted to 5,575
11:07:28days, a few days longer than last time,
11:07:31but overall it's still 15 years. Not
11:07:33much different. The total lifespan is
11:07:35now 127,056
11:07:38days. That is 348 years ago. You must
11:07:41know that this is a cultivator who has
11:07:43reached the perfect foundation
11:07:44establishment stage. Its lifespan was
11:07:47only a little over 200 years. Although
11:07:49cultivators with wood elemental roots
11:07:51have longer lifespans, it could only
11:07:53last for a little over 200 years at
11:07:55most. Therefore, Su Chongqing<unk>s
11:07:57lifespan alone has already surpassed
11:07:59that of all foundation establishment
11:08:01stages. Is it over? Leansai's voice rang
11:08:04out from the doorway of the stone house.
11:08:06Su Chongqing walked step by step from
11:08:08the spirit field to the ridge and then
11:08:10replied, "Done." Li Kai waved his hand,
11:08:13"Then come and eat." Such Choning<unk>s
11:08:16eyes lit up immediately. "I've been
11:08:17putting this off for so long, all for
11:08:19this dinner." However, upon entering the
11:08:22living room and seeing the food on the
11:08:24stone table, I was completely stunned.
11:08:26There was only a large bowl of porridge
11:08:28made from spirit rice on the table. A
11:08:30pot of second grade spirit rice wine
11:08:32that was taken from me. There wasn't
11:08:34even a dish of pickled vegetables.
11:08:36Chapter 77. A gentle night breeze. The
11:08:39arena opens. Chapter 77. A gentle night
11:08:42breeze. The arena opens. Eat up. Li
11:08:45waved the chopsticks in his hand. Su
11:08:48Chongqing chuckled dryly and asked,
11:08:49"Senior brother, besides Lee Lingai and
11:08:52me, has anyone else been looking for
11:08:53you?" "No." Li Sanankai shook his head,
11:08:56then asked in surprise, "What do you
11:08:58mean by that?" As Su Chongqing picked up
11:09:01his spoon, he replied, "Junior brother
11:09:03just thinks that senior brother
11:09:04shouldn't lack vegetables, spirit beast
11:09:07meat, or other similar foods, right?" Li
11:09:09Sanankai wasn't stupid. He immediately
11:09:12understood and said earnestly, "Oh dear,
11:09:14the amount of spiritual energy a person
11:09:16can refine each day is limited. There's
11:09:19no point in eating too much." Su
11:09:22Chongqing said, both amused and
11:09:24exasperated. But this is too plain.
11:09:26Isn't there still wine? Liang Kai smiled
11:09:29slightly, then picked up the wine pot.
11:09:31Su Chongqing<unk>s lips twitched
11:09:33violently. Goodness, you're going to
11:09:34have spirit rice porridge with alcohol.
11:09:36Huh? I thought see senior brother Lee
11:09:38was a fairly normal cultivator with a
11:09:40wood elemental route. I've only just
11:09:42realized that it's actually quite
11:09:44abstract. Afterwards, the two chatted
11:09:46casually while drinking porridge. Junior
11:09:48brother Sue, the weapon forging peak
11:09:50will open its arena tomorrow. Why don't
11:09:52you go and give it a try? Fighting? I
11:09:55don't really like it. Although wood
11:09:57spirit roots are not suitable for combat
11:09:59in the early stages, it's good for
11:10:00gaining experience. Senior brother wants
11:10:03to go. What formal disciple who has
11:10:05reached the foundation establishment
11:10:07stage wouldn't want to obtain more
11:10:08resources? If you want to go, senior
11:10:11brother, I'll accompany you. It wouldn't
11:10:13hurt to broaden your horizons. And so,
11:10:15the two agreed to go to Zuchi Peak the
11:10:18next morning. By the time Su Chongqing
11:10:20returned home, it was already 9:00 p.m.
11:10:22This is equivalent to around 900 p.m. in
11:10:25the previous life, which isn't
11:10:26considered late. The Guinea Fowl were
11:10:28already curled up in their coupe,
11:10:30resting. Wong Wong, on the other hand,
11:10:33is full of energy. At the slightest
11:10:35sound, it would scan the area, its
11:10:37bright eyes particularly striking in the
11:10:39night. Take good care of the spirit
11:10:41field. Such Chongqing really patted Wong
11:10:43Wong<unk>s head this time before
11:10:45returning to the house. Cultivators do
11:10:47not need to take baths. Clothes also
11:10:49have the ability to clean themselves
11:10:51automatically. Therefore, Su Chongqing
11:10:54lay directly on the wooden bed. He
11:10:56squinted his eyes slightly. Looking out
11:10:58the open window, I gazed contentedly at
11:11:00the night sky. A huge moon hung in the
11:11:02sky, gleaming with a frosty white
11:11:04moonlight. Tonight, there are no clouds,
11:11:07and the stars are twinkling. Every now
11:11:09and then, a shooting star streaks across
11:11:11the sky. Occasionally, fireflies would
11:11:13drift away from outside the window. The
11:11:16only sounds in the world were the
11:11:17croaking of frogs and the chirping of
11:11:19insects, creating an exceptionally
11:11:21peaceful atmosphere. A gentle night
11:11:23breeze drifted into the room through the
11:11:25window. It was so gentle without a trace
11:11:28of heat. Gradually, Su Chongqing closed
11:11:31his eyes. Nothing was said that night.
11:11:33The next day arrived quietly. At the
11:11:35same time, Su Chongqing opened his eyes
11:11:37and began his daily routine. make
11:11:40breakfast, spiritual field cultivation,
11:11:42clean up dog and chicken droppings
11:11:44outside the house. Finally, they reach
11:11:46their evil hands into the guinea foul's
11:11:49nest. But this time, it's really a
11:11:51little different. Normally, guinea foul
11:11:53lay one egg every 3 days. Such Chonqing
11:11:56was surprised to find that there were
11:11:57actually two this time. Cuckoo. The
11:12:00guinea foul tilted its head and made
11:12:02short, triumphant calls. It's as if
11:12:04she's saying, "See that? I'm pretty
11:12:06awesome." Su Chongqin carefully took out
11:12:09the two eggs and examined them closely
11:12:11in his hands. They are almost identical
11:12:13in both size and shape. The only
11:12:15difference might be the weight. One is
11:12:17slightly heavier. The other one is
11:12:19slightly lighter. The extra egg was a
11:12:21pleasant surprise. This also means that
11:12:23you should have good luck today. Cuckoo.
11:12:25The guinea foul slowly emerged from
11:12:27their warm nest. The chickens beak
11:12:29wiggled up and down as if hinting at
11:12:31something. Seeing this, Su Chanqing put
11:12:34away the two eggs, then took out a small
11:12:36handful of second grade spirit rice and
11:12:38offered it to it, saying with a smile,
11:12:40"Thank you for your hard work." Just
11:12:42then, Wong Wong, who had been guarding
11:12:44the place all night, rushed over. It
11:12:47wagged its tail with a fawning
11:12:48expression. "You've worked hard, too."
11:12:50Such Chonqing gently patted the dog's
11:12:53head with his other hand. By the time we
11:12:55finished taking care of them, it was
11:12:56already morning. The appointed time with
11:12:58senior brother Lee has arrived. Such
11:13:00Chanqing prepared all the lunch dishes
11:13:02in advance. That way, Wong Wong can eat
11:13:05right away when it wakes up. After
11:13:07everything was settled, he rode the
11:13:08paper crane toward Leang Kai. We arrived
11:13:11shortly afterward. Subsequently, Su
11:13:13Chonqing set off together on Li Sansai's
11:13:16flying paper crane. The arena is located
11:13:18in the well-known forging peak. Such
11:13:21Chonqing had visited once when he went
11:13:23to the Sono market. I was deeply
11:13:25impressed by this place. Giant swords
11:13:27and flying swords were everywhere which
11:13:29looked quite impressive this time. Even
11:13:31though it was morning, the spacious
11:13:33square was packed with people. There are
11:13:35formal disciples everywhere and they
11:13:37have all kinds of spiritual roots
11:13:39regardless of the common five elements,
11:13:41metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. It
11:13:44is also a rare unique spiritual route
11:13:47such as wind, thunder, ice, etc. You can
11:13:51see them all here. Quickly, this arena
11:13:53needs repairs. Is the protective array
11:13:55over there installed yet? A junior
11:13:57brother with an earth elemental route is
11:13:59coming over here quick. It was
11:14:01incredibly lively. The arena was built
11:14:04by disciples with earth elemental roots.
11:14:06There are nine in the entire square
11:14:08arranged in the order of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
11:14:129. Le Sanankai controlled the flying
11:14:14paper crane to land and then said,
11:14:17"Although the wood spirit route is not
11:14:18suitable for combat in the early stage,
11:14:21combat experience and skills must be
11:14:23understood. Otherwise, you'll be like a
11:14:25block of wood during a fight. Spiritual
11:14:28roots are mutually reinforcing and
11:14:30mutually restraining. Therefore, the
11:14:32properties of spells are the same. For
11:14:34example, fire overcomes metal.
11:14:36Therefore, the metal spiritual root is
11:14:38restrained in many ways. Being able to
11:14:41unleash half of its power is already
11:14:43considered excellent. And the disciples
11:14:45with rich combat experience and superb
11:14:47skills are the ones with the golden
11:14:49spiritual route. It can even minimize
11:14:51the effect of restraint. At the same
11:14:53time, the spiritual roots that generate
11:14:56each other like wood igniting fire. When
11:14:58wood attribute spells and fire attribute
11:15:00spells are combined, they can unleash
11:15:02power many times over. This is why the
11:15:05five element spiritual roots are so
11:15:07sought after. The more spiritual roots
11:15:09one has, the fewer weaknesses one has,
11:15:12the number of spells, on the spot
11:15:13reactions, and other aspects will all be
11:15:16improved to varying degrees. Su
11:15:18Chongqing listened and nodded. What
11:15:20senior brother says is right. Soon, the
11:15:23two arrived at the nearest number one
11:15:24ring. Since it's not yet the official
11:15:27disciple competition, everyone here is
11:15:29here to hone their experience and
11:15:30skills. Currently, there are two people
11:15:32fighting in ring number one. One is a
11:15:34water spirit route. One is a metal
11:15:37spiritual route. The water elemental
11:15:39route released a water sphere that
11:15:40enveloped itself. Not only is its
11:15:43defense high, and it's very fast, as
11:15:45slippery as a loach, the golden
11:15:47spiritual route is very simple. Just
11:15:49throw out a tie- by sword pill, the
11:15:51sword energy was released automatically,
11:15:53emitting a whoosh whoosh whoosh sound as
11:15:56it cut through the air. Although the two
11:15:58spiritual roots of metal and water are
11:16:00not mutually exclusive, they are even
11:16:02mutually supportive. But what they were
11:16:04witnessing was a one-sided crushing
11:16:06defeat. Gene Ling Jen stood motionless
11:16:09in place. On the contrary, if the water
11:16:11elemental route is even slightly slower,
11:16:14it will be caught up by the Tai sword
11:16:16pill, resulting in a situation riddled
11:16:18with holes and seemingly in grave
11:16:20danger. Therefore, the battle did not
11:16:22last long before the water elemental
11:16:24route conceded defeat. Maintaining the
11:16:27water sphere's defense requires a large
11:16:29amount of spiritual energy. Before even
11:16:31getting close to the opponent, he was
11:16:33the first to give up. The golden
11:16:34spiritual route did not suffer much
11:16:36depletion and even stood still in place.
11:16:39Lean Kai asked curiously, "Junior
11:16:41brother, what would you do if you were
11:16:43in this situation?" Su Chongqing
11:16:45shrugged, stating, "Matter of factly, I
11:16:48concede." Chapter 78. 5 days later,
11:16:51senior brother Lee's childhood
11:16:52sweetheart. Chapter 78. 5 days later, Li
11:16:55Sanankai, a senior brother and childhood
11:16:58sweetheart, laughed in anger upon
11:17:00hearing this. Junior brother, you are
11:17:02indeed a qualified spirit farmer. He
11:17:05couldn't find a more euphemistic way of
11:17:07putting it. I want to praise him, but I
11:17:09can't. I want to curse, but I can't.
11:17:12Such Chonqing was not a relative like
11:17:13Leing. They are not close friends with
11:17:15whom one can talk about anything.
11:17:17Ultimately, the two were just slightly
11:17:19closer fellow disciples. Everyone has
11:17:21their own pursuits. Since Su Chongqing
11:17:24dislikes fighting, I cannot force him
11:17:26to. Isn't that the blue sky? Huan is
11:17:28here too. Good heavens, the top
11:17:30disciples have all appeared at the
11:17:32weapon forging peak. At that moment, a
11:17:35noisy sound came from the other side. Su
11:17:37Chongqing, Liankai, and the people
11:17:39around them all looked over. Then you
11:17:41can hear the sound of rushing water.
11:17:43Immediately afterwards, a red boat
11:17:45shimmering on the blue waves slowly
11:17:47descended. Then five people came down
11:17:50from upstairs. Four men and one woman.
11:17:52They were all young and handsome with
11:17:54extraordinary bearing. The person in the
11:17:57lead is none other than the current top
11:17:59disciple of the Imperial Water Pavilion,
11:18:01Blue Sky. This person has only one
11:18:03spiritual route. He has extremely high
11:18:06comprehension ability. Moreover, he had
11:18:08a remarkable experience when he was a
11:18:10child. You have acquired a growth type
11:18:12spiritual artifact named autumn water
11:18:14and it has recognized you as its master.
11:18:17It is said that this autumn water sword
11:18:19is about to evolve into a more advanced
11:18:21magical artifact. For this reason, the
11:18:24blue sky not only possesses the unique
11:18:26and enduring spiritual power of the
11:18:28water spirit route in terms of defense,
11:18:31attack, speed, and all other aspects, it
11:18:34far surpasses its fellow disciples. Of
11:18:36course, he was originally in second
11:18:38place, always being overshadowed by
11:18:40Leing. However, Leiling was later valued
11:18:43by the naent soul true lord and became a
11:18:46core disciple. Therefore, Lion has held
11:18:49the top spot among the official
11:18:50disciples of Yushu Guu for many years.
11:18:53The other four are equally formidable.
11:18:55They are R Yan, a formal disciple of
11:18:58Ling Tion and the number one person with
11:19:00the wood spirit route. Shir Gandang, a
11:19:03formal disciple of the earth vein sect
11:19:05and the number one person with the earth
11:19:07spirit route. Huan, a formal disciple of
11:19:10the alchemy pavilion and the number one
11:19:12person with the fire spirit route. Sword
11:19:14Cold Heart, the number one person with
11:19:16the golden spirit route and a formal
11:19:18disciple of the forging peak. They are
11:19:21all geniuses with a single spiritual
11:19:23route. And all of them are extremely
11:19:25outstanding and without exception,
11:19:27everyone reached the foundation
11:19:28establishment stage. Seeing that senior
11:19:31brother Lee was staring at Hwan, Su
11:19:33Chongqing asked curiously, "Senior
11:19:35brother, are you smitten?" Well, Le
11:19:38Saneni paused for a moment, then
11:19:39withdrew his dazed gaze and shook his
11:19:41head, saying, "No, we are childhood
11:19:44friends. But now things are a bit
11:19:46different. The little kid I grew up
11:19:48with. Now he is the youngest alchemist
11:19:50in the alchemy pavilion. Moreover, he is
11:19:53the number one person with the fire
11:19:55spirit route among the formal
11:19:56disciples." Thinking back, the last time
11:19:58the two chatted was 5 years ago.
11:20:00Childhood sweethearts. Su Choning<unk>s
11:20:03gossip loving fire burned fiercely. Just
11:20:05then, Hwan suddenly huddled together
11:20:07with Rong Yen. This can be seen from
11:20:09their intimate actions. Their
11:20:11relationship is most likely that of
11:20:12Daist partners. It's not the kind of
11:20:14thing where you hire a Tauist companion.
11:20:17It's more like sharing a bed. Leankai
11:20:19saw this. His eyes narrowed slightly and
11:20:22his hands unconsciously clenched. In the
11:20:24end, however, he didn't have the courage
11:20:26to go up to them, not even to say hello.
11:20:29Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow and
11:20:31asked, "Senior brother, is this Rome?"
11:20:33Yin a member of the Rome family, the
11:20:35number one cultivation family in Lion.
11:20:38Li Sanankai nodded vigorously. He's more
11:20:41than just a member. His father is the
11:20:43current patriarch of the Rome family.
11:20:45Such Chanqing immediately understood. To
11:20:47put it bluntly, this Rome Yen in his
11:20:49previous life. They are rich second
11:20:52generation individuals with status,
11:20:54position, and talent. Lee, the senior
11:20:56brother beside him, was rather ordinary.
11:20:59Although he is a member of the Lee
11:21:00family, currently the most powerful
11:21:02family in the Imperial Water Pavilion.
11:21:05Ultimately, it was just a collateral
11:21:06branch. Moreover, if it weren't for Lee
11:21:09Ling by sudden rise to power, the Lee
11:21:11family might not necessarily be able to
11:21:13compete with the Lawn family behind
11:21:15Lion. Lion glanced around gently and
11:21:18chuckled. So many people. What's the use
11:21:20of having more people? They're all
11:21:22useless. Shir Gandang showed a
11:21:24disdainful expression. Rong Yin and Hwan
11:21:27were whispering to each other. Huan
11:21:28occasionally let out a silvery laugh. A
11:21:31look of disgust flashed in Jiian Hon's
11:21:33eyes after hearing what Shir Gand said.
11:21:35At this moment, Lion walked towards the
11:21:38number one arena, which had just been
11:21:40cleaned without hesitation. This scene
11:21:42aroused everyone's curiosity. Soon, Lion
11:21:46stepped onto the number one arena and
11:21:47said loudly, "Everyone, you've all come
11:21:50here to enrich your combat experience
11:21:52and improve your combat skills. If
11:21:54that's the case, come up and have a
11:21:56match with me." These words immediately
11:21:58caused an uproar. Unexpectedly, the
11:22:00number one official disciple of the
11:22:02Imperial Water Pavilion actually
11:22:04accepted everyone's challenge. This is
11:22:06the closest opportunity to a genius, a
11:22:09once-in-a-lifetime chance. For a time,
11:22:11many people were eager to try it out.
11:22:13Such Chongqing observed this and
11:22:15wondered, "It seems that Lon Tion is
11:22:18testing the person who challenges him.
11:22:19Could it be that his cultivation level
11:22:21or technique has improved?" At this time
11:22:24on the other side, there were arenas
11:22:26number two, number three, and so on up
11:22:28to number five. Everyone got on board.
11:22:30It was none other than R Yan, Huan, Sher
11:22:33Gandang, and Jian Haning. Clearly, they
11:22:36share the same idea as Lon Tion. Su
11:22:39Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up at the site
11:22:40and he quickly reminded him. Senior
11:22:43brother, this is your chance to
11:22:44communicate with senior sister Hu Wan
11:22:46again. I I'm afraid I can't<unk>t do it,
11:22:49Li Sanankai lowered his head, appearing
11:22:51extremely unconfident. Su Chongqing said
11:22:54earnestly, you just say that you wanted
11:22:56to improve your experience and skills.
11:22:58Liang Kai said with a sigh, "But I am
11:23:01just an ordinary spirit farmer in the
11:23:03spirit field." Upon hearing this, Su
11:23:05Chongqing pondered, "Our team is still
11:23:07missing an alchemist. Since senior
11:23:09sister Huan is so outstanding, why not
11:23:12try to recruit her?" These words made
11:23:14Lean Kai raise his head. I don't know if
11:23:16it's because this excuse is really
11:23:18effective. It was my cousin Lee Lingbi
11:23:20who instilled this confidence in me.
11:23:22After some thought, he squeezed out of
11:23:24the crowd and walked step by step toward
11:23:26the number four arena where Ho Wan was.
11:23:29Such Chongqing followed closely behind.
11:23:31Soon before anyone challenged Hu Wan,
11:23:34Leanne took the lead and climbed up.
11:23:36Brother Sankai, Ho Wan exclaimed in
11:23:38surprise as she looked at the person who
11:23:40came up on stage. Le San Kai suppressed
11:23:42his excitement and greeted Hu Daou
11:23:44expressionlessly. It's been a long time,
11:23:47fellow Daist Hua. Huan was taken aback
11:23:50and subconsciously glanced at Ry Yan
11:23:52only to meet his sharp gaze. She
11:23:54couldn't help but furrow her brows
11:23:55slightly before saying calmly, "Long
11:23:57time no see." Su Chongqing was watching
11:24:00from below the stage when suddenly he
11:24:02heard the sound of rushing water from
11:24:04the other side. He looked over
11:24:06instinctively and saw that it was the
11:24:07fight about to begin in arena number
11:24:09one. Lion's opponent is a female
11:24:12disciple with a gold spiritual route. He
11:24:14doesn't look very old. Everyone else has
11:24:16long hair, but she has short hair. They
11:24:19weren't wearing the white robes that
11:24:20were standard for formal disciples.
11:24:22Instead, it was a very smart black
11:24:24training uniform. I remember this female
11:24:26disciple. She joined the weapon forging
11:24:29peak less than a year ago. I heard she
11:24:31has exceptionally high comprehension. I
11:24:33think her name is Yinyong. Someone
11:24:35nearby said seeing that Lee Sanang Kai
11:24:37and Huan had not yet made a move, Su
11:24:39Chongqing focused his attention on arena
11:24:41number one. Yinyang controls the Tai
11:24:44sword pellet with his left hand. He held
11:24:46a silver short sword in his right hand.
11:24:48Unlike other metal elemental roots, it
11:24:50doesn't stand still in one place.
11:24:53Instead, they charge towards their
11:24:54opponent. Seeing this, Lion chuckled and
11:24:57said, "A melee swordsman, huh?" Chapter
11:25:0079, Lee San Kai breaks down. Jeanga
11:25:03takes the initiative. Chapter 79, Lee
11:25:05Sanangai broke down. Jeang Shua took the
11:25:08initiative. Yinyang had a cold face and
11:25:10his eyes were particularly sharp. He
11:25:12flicked out the Tibby sword pellet with
11:25:14his left hand, releasing streaks of
11:25:16white sword energy. They attempted to
11:25:18overwhelm their opponent with a very
11:25:20dense attack. However, the one in front
11:25:23of her was no ordinary water spirit
11:25:25route. He was the number one official
11:25:27disciple of the entire Imperial Water
11:25:29Pavilion. That is the most powerful
11:25:31existence. Therefore, Lion appeared
11:25:34quite calm in the face of this
11:25:36situation. He didn't even glance at the
11:25:38sword energy shooting towards him. Just
11:25:40before being hit, his body was suddenly
11:25:42enveloped in a layer of transparent
11:25:44bubbles. Duh. The white sword energy
11:25:47released by Yinyang pierced the
11:25:49seemingly soft water bubble. Instead of
11:25:51being pierced, they shattered. It
11:25:53vanished into the air in the blink of an
11:25:55eye. "Huh?" Yinyang<unk>s eyes widened.
11:25:58"My own attack had absolutely no
11:25:59effect." Lion said with a half smile.
11:26:02"He does have some potential. But what
11:26:04kind of courage allows you, a chi
11:26:06refining stage cultivator, to face me, a
11:26:08foundation establishment stage
11:26:10cultivator head on?" He simply raised
11:26:12his hand. The transparent bubbles
11:26:14covering his entire body expanded at an
11:26:16extremely rapid speed. In an instant, it
11:26:19enveloped the entire arena. The water
11:26:21elemental power became exceptionally
11:26:23strong at this moment. It seemed
11:26:25invisible, yet it made it impossible for
11:26:27Yinyang to breathe. In fact, he felt as
11:26:30if he were trapped in a swamp, unable to
11:26:32move an inch. In less than 10 seconds,
11:26:35Yinyang knelt down on the ground with a
11:26:37plop. Because she couldn't breathe, her
11:26:39brain began to lack oxygen. My vision
11:26:42went black and my consciousness
11:26:44gradually faded. Giggle. At this moment,
11:26:46he couldn't even speak. The intense
11:26:48feeling of suffocation brought
11:26:50unprecedented fear. His body trembled
11:26:52uncontrollably. He couldn't even hold
11:26:55the silver dagger in his right hand, and
11:26:57it clattered to the ground. Lion shook
11:26:59his head in disappointment. You're not
11:27:01even qualified to be my opponent right
11:27:03now. The next second, the bubbles and
11:27:05water elemental energy were withdrawn.
11:27:08Yinyang was like a fish starving to
11:27:10death. He collapsed limply onto the
11:27:12ring. They greedily inhaled every breath
11:27:14of fresh air. Her eyes were bloodshot
11:27:16and filled with defiance. But a loser is
11:27:19a loser, and they have to swallow their
11:27:21pride, even if they're not happy about
11:27:23it. Lion turned to face the crowd and
11:27:25announced loudly. Only those at the
11:27:27foundation establishment stage are
11:27:29qualified to step onto the number one
11:27:31arena. Such Chanqing silently withdrew
11:27:34his gaze, thinking to himself, "This guy
11:27:36seems kind on the surface, but he's
11:27:38actually more arrogant than anyone
11:27:40else." At this moment, Leankai faced off
11:27:43against Huan. Both of them share the
11:27:45same with Elemental Root. One fire
11:27:48elemental root. They are both mutually
11:27:50supportive and mutually destructive. Li
11:27:52Sanankai clenched his teeth, his
11:27:54expression quite serious. It seems like
11:27:56they're trying to prove something.
11:27:58raising his left hand, a spirit seal
11:28:00with the character Vub wood appeared. It
11:28:03turns out that he also practiced the
11:28:04wood spirit entanglement technique.
11:28:07Whoosh! Dozens of tiny seeds were flung
11:28:09out. The moment they landed, they
11:28:11quickly transformed into sharp thorny
11:28:14vines, rushing towards the opposite
11:28:16side. Holan saw this and said calmly,
11:28:19"Third brother, is this all you have?"
11:28:21These words were like a thorn piercing
11:28:23deeply into Lysans's heart. He was
11:28:26completely stunned. At this moment, Hwan
11:28:28patted her waist and a small silver bell
11:28:31floated up. After hovering in midair, it
11:28:33turned red at a speed visible to the
11:28:35naked eye. When Leansai's thorny vines
11:28:38rushed over, it just wobbled back and
11:28:40forth a little with a whoosh. Orange
11:28:42flames burst forth from within. In an
11:28:45instant, half of the arena was engulfed
11:28:47in flames. The thorny vines released by
11:28:49Le Sanankai couldn't even get close.
11:28:52They were all instantly burned to ashes.
11:28:54Forced back by the scorching heat, Lee
11:28:56Sanankai exclaimed incredulously, "A
11:28:59fire attribute magical artifact?" Huan
11:29:01smiled and said, "This is a fire
11:29:04attribute spiritual artifact, the fire
11:29:06gathering bell that brother Yen gave
11:29:08me." There are many kinds of magical
11:29:10artifacts. Defensive magical artifact,
11:29:13offensive magical artifacts. There are
11:29:15also everyday magical artifacts. This
11:29:18fire gathering bell is an offensive
11:29:20spiritual artifact. It can release high
11:29:23temperature spiritual fire crafted by
11:29:25top blacksmiths from Casting Peak.
11:29:27Currently, one costs 2,000 mid-grade
11:29:30spirit stones. The quality is top-notch.
11:29:33The burning inferno separated Lee Sanai
11:29:35and Hwan. The two of them looked at each
11:29:37other. I'm looking at you. Their gazes
11:29:39towards each other grew increasingly
11:29:41indifferent. Everything from the past
11:29:43was reduced to ashes in the sea of fire.
11:29:46Finally, Li Sankai took a deep breath
11:29:48and said, "I admit defeat." Before he
11:29:50could even finish saying, "I lost," he
11:29:53had already stumbled off the stage in a
11:29:55disheveled state. "Senior brother, are
11:29:57you all right?" Such Chonqing hurriedly
11:29:59stepped forward to greet him. Li
11:30:01Sanankai said angrily, "That little girl
11:30:03is too ruthless. She burned all the
11:30:05seeds I stored." Such Chanqing quickly
11:30:08reassured him, "It's all right. Failure
11:30:10is the mother of success. We're here
11:30:12mainly to accumulate experience and
11:30:14enrich our skills. As a result, Li
11:30:16Sankai said irritably. Accumulate my
11:30:19ass. I'm leaving. Su Chongqing exclaimed
11:30:22in surprise. We just arrived. If you
11:30:24don't leave, I will. Li had no face to
11:30:27stay any longer. Such Chanqing had no
11:30:30choice but to follow. The two quickly
11:30:32left Casting Peak. The arena battles
11:30:34above have only just begun. Standing on
11:30:37the back of the paper crane, Su
11:30:39Chongqing could already see his second
11:30:41grade spirit field. But as they got
11:30:43closer, they suddenly noticed someone.
11:30:45Who? Jong Shua. She crouched down and
11:30:48cornered Wong Wong in the doghouse. He
11:30:50kept teasing her with a foxtail grass in
11:30:52his hand. At this moment, Wong Wong had
11:30:54an expression of utter despair. His eyes
11:30:57held a very complex expression. There
11:30:59was fear, impatience, and especially a
11:31:02strong sense of disgust. He tried to
11:31:04escape several times, but the door was
11:31:06blocked and he couldn't get out at all.
11:31:08Fellow Dowist Jang. At that moment, Su
11:31:11Chongqing<unk>s voice rang out from the
11:31:12sky. Jang Shua heard the noise and stood
11:31:15up to look. Wong Wong seized the
11:31:17opportunity and immediately dashed away.
11:31:19After Su Chongqing landed, the dog
11:31:22scured to his feet, hid between his legs
11:31:24with its head peeking out, and barked
11:31:26incessantly. Woof woof woof. Jeang
11:31:29crossed her arms and snorted. Well,
11:31:31Aang, you're just relying on your
11:31:33master's power, aren't you? Its name is
11:31:36Wong Wong. Su Chongqing patted Wong
11:31:38Wong<unk>s head and then asked, "Did
11:31:40fellow Daoist Jang need something from
11:31:42me?" Jeanga took out another small
11:31:44storage bag from her storage bag and
11:31:46said, "The compensation for the Chopong
11:31:48incident has been delivered." Su
11:31:50Chongqing said, "Oh." And immediately
11:31:53took it. Upon opening it, I was
11:31:55immediately astonished by the number of
11:31:57spirit stones inside. Jeang Shua said
11:31:59with a smile. There are a full 100
11:32:02mid-grade spirit stones in the storage
11:32:03bag. Su Chongqing clicked his tongue in
11:32:06amazement. No wonder they're the Chio
11:32:08family. They're really rich. He was not
11:32:10angry at Chioing<unk>s behavior at the
11:32:12time. After all, there was no loss
11:32:14involved. Even cough cough cough. Jeang
11:32:17joked, "Now that you have money,
11:32:19shouldn't fellow Daist Sue find a Dowist
11:32:21partner?" Su Chongqing asked in
11:32:23confusion, "Why do you need a Daist
11:32:25partner?" Zang Shu immediately said,
11:32:28"Didn't you go to the flower sea last
11:32:30time specifically to find a Dowist
11:32:32partner?" Su Chongqing waved his hand.
11:32:34"You may have misunderstood. I went with
11:32:36a friend last time." Upon hearing this,
11:32:39Jeang narrowed her eyes. "Then what kind
11:32:42of daist partner are you looking for?"
11:32:44Su Chongqing said thoughtfully, "I want
11:32:46to create a second spiritual route. If
11:32:48I'm going to find a dowist partner, it
11:32:50must be a water spiritual route." Upon
11:32:53hearing this, Shua stepped forward and
11:32:55eagerly asked, "Are there any
11:32:57requirements regarding appearance,
11:32:58ability, or age?" Upon hearing this,
11:33:01Such Chanqing looked Jeangu up and down.
11:33:04Seeing her slender figure and innocent
11:33:06appearance, he blurted out, "Someone
11:33:08similar to you is fine." Chapter 80, The
11:33:11Requirements of a Dowist Companion:
11:33:13Portable Array Formation. Chapter 80,
11:33:15The Requirement of a Dowist Partner. A
11:33:18portable array. Upon hearing this, Jeang
11:33:20Shua couldn't help but say, "Shall we
11:33:22give it a try?" Su Chongqing was stunned
11:33:24upon hearing this, quite surprised.
11:33:26Because of Zang Shu<unk>s relationship
11:33:28with Jeang Air, he intentionally kept
11:33:30his distance. I thought that the other
11:33:32party's repeated contact and
11:33:34communication were actually a test. But
11:33:36to my utter surprise, it turned out to
11:33:38be that she had taken a liking to me. I
11:33:40can't. Jeang Schwe<unk>s heart tightened
11:33:42when she saw that the other party had no
11:33:44reaction at all. Su Chanqing thought for
11:33:46a moment and said, "Fellow Daist Jang,
11:33:49your understanding of a Dowist partner
11:33:51and the Dowist partner I'm looking for
11:33:53may not be the same thing." Jean Shua
11:33:55looked puzzled, "What kind of Daist
11:33:57partner are you looking for?" Su Chaning
11:33:59said, "Seriously, what I want to find is
11:34:01a hired Dowist partner who can help me
11:34:03cultivate new spiritual roots, not a
11:34:06partner to accompany me for life or even
11:34:08marry and have children with." Jeang was
11:34:10stunned upon hearing this and
11:34:12involuntarily took a step back. His
11:34:14eyes, expressions, and emotions all
11:34:17became complicated. My mind in
11:34:19particular is in a state of extreme
11:34:21confusion right now. In her
11:34:23understanding, the vast majority of
11:34:25spirit farmers who seek water spirit
11:34:27roots are in a partnership. One person
11:34:29farms the land. One person brought rain.
11:34:32Working together as a team makes the
11:34:33work easier. Unexpectedly, Su Chongqing
11:34:36ended up hiring a Daist partner. It's
11:34:38the kind of thing where you can have
11:34:40both sexes if you pay. This was
11:34:42completely unexpected. Su Chongqing said
11:34:44in a deep voice, "Fellow Daist Jang,
11:34:47think it over carefully." Jeangua took a
11:34:49deep breath and then nodded. "Okay, I'll
11:34:52think about it when I get back." Then
11:34:54she summoned a black shuttle and quickly
11:34:56departed. Su Chongqing stared in the
11:34:58direction where the other person had
11:34:59disappeared. His expression quite
11:35:01complicated. He truly hadn't expected
11:35:03that Jeang would actually take a liking
11:35:05to him. Perhaps it's related to the
11:35:07previous Flowerfield incident. He was
11:35:09facing a slender, pure-looking female
11:35:12disciple with a water elemental root.
11:35:14Logically, I shouldn't refuse. Moreover,
11:35:17Su Chongqing is not the kind of person
11:35:19who becomes detached from worldly
11:35:21desires once he begins cultivating
11:35:23immortality. The problem is that I have
11:35:25quite a few secrets. One, harvest the
11:35:28spiritual plants five times a year. Two,
11:35:30the mutated spiritual rice at the foot
11:35:32of the Rocky Mountain. Third, especially
11:35:35the secrets of longevity. Neither of
11:35:37them should be easily revealed.
11:35:39Therefore, hiring a towist companion is
11:35:41the most suitable option. The other
11:35:43party won't stay here permanently.
11:35:45They'll come at fixed times and
11:35:46locations. Furthermore, since the two
11:35:48have an employer employee relationship,
11:35:50there won't be much emotional connection
11:35:52between them. However, Jeangu's arrival
11:35:55gave me a wakeup call. Su Chongqing
11:35:57quickly took out a communication
11:35:59talisman from his small storage bag and
11:36:01infused it with wood elemental power.
11:36:03Hey, hiccup fellow Daist Han. I am Su
11:36:06Chongqing. Oh, it's been a long time,
11:36:09fellow Daist Su. I'd like to inquire if
11:36:11there are any formations that can
11:36:12conceal one's scent. Of course, there
11:36:15are, such as the concealment array,
11:36:17barrier avoidance array, and maze array.
11:36:19Then, is there something more convenient
11:36:21that can be installed and used anytime?
11:36:24You mean a portable array formation?
11:36:26Yes. Yes. Yes, of course. But they're
11:36:28quite expensive. How expensive? For the
11:36:31sake of our own people, at least 50
11:36:32mid-grade spirit stones. Uh, then you do
11:36:35it. After agreeing on a time for the
11:36:37transaction with Han Xen, Su Chonqing
11:36:40carefully put away the communication
11:36:42talisman. Unexpectedly, I just obtained
11:36:44100 mid-grade spirit stones. Before it
11:36:47was even warmed up, half of it was gone.
11:36:49However, if the scent of the mutated
11:36:51spirit rice at the foot of the Rocky
11:36:53Mountain can be masked, it won't be a
11:36:55loss in the long run. After all, mutated
11:36:58spiritual plants are quite expensive
11:36:59these days. Next, Su Chongqing cooked
11:37:02while waiting for Han Xen to arrive.
11:37:04About an hour later, a small swaying
11:37:06black approached from the horizon. Su
11:37:09Chongqing was sitting under a popppler
11:37:11tree enjoying the cool air after
11:37:12finishing his meal when he saw this and
11:37:14knew that Han Xen had arrived. After
11:37:17all, only the other person would dare to
11:37:19run around when drunk. Bang! The ground
11:37:22shook and the shuttle crashed to the
11:37:23ground. Dust flew everywhere. Where?
11:37:26Where is he? Han Xian staggered down the
11:37:28steps. Su Chongqing said irritably. Can
11:37:31you take it easy? You almost ruined my
11:37:33spirit field. Han Exine chuckled. Don't
11:37:36worry, I don't want to offend you.
11:37:38Hiccup. Su Chongqing approached her,
11:37:40smelled a strong odor of alcohol, and
11:37:42frowned. He immediately handed her 50
11:37:45mid-grade spirit stones, saying, "The
11:37:47spirit stones are all here." Hanxen
11:37:50reached out and grabbed, but there was
11:37:51nothing there. Another grab, and still
11:37:53nothing. From her perspective, the
11:37:55spirit stone had already been divided
11:37:57into three parts. Such Chongqing was
11:38:00speechless for a moment, then stuffed
11:38:01the spirit stones into the other
11:38:03person's arms and said, "Can't you drink
11:38:05less?" While holding the spirit stones,
11:38:08Hanxen complained, "I also wanted to
11:38:10drink less, but it's your wine that's so
11:38:12delicious. It not only tastes good.
11:38:15Moreover, it can also increase
11:38:16cultivation speed. It can even greatly
11:38:19help in understanding the techniques.
11:38:21Therefore, she was basically drunk
11:38:23everyday." However, its strength did not
11:38:26decline. On the contrary, it continued
11:38:28to grow with effects comparable to
11:38:30second grade spirit rice. That's how you
11:38:32get addicted and you just can't stop. Su
11:38:35Chongqing pursed his lips upon hearing
11:38:36this. Is it my fault? Han Xian waved her
11:38:39hand dismissively. Oh, I'm not blaming
11:38:42you. Su Chongqing, too lazy to waste
11:38:45words, urged, "All right, give me the
11:38:47convenient array." Han Xen started
11:38:50rumaging through her storage bag, and it
11:38:52took her several tries to find it. Upon
11:38:54opening it, a thought crossed my mind.
11:38:56The next second, something resembling a
11:38:58jade plate appeared in his hand. Su Chan
11:39:01could barely make out some of the
11:39:02contents. It seems to be something like
11:39:04location. It was very similar to the
11:39:06compass the other party had held
11:39:07earlier, but much simpler. Han Xen
11:39:10casually tossed it out and then
11:39:12introduced, "This portable array is
11:39:14called the concealment array, and its
11:39:16coverage area is about 10 jang." Such
11:39:18Chaning took it and felt that it was a
11:39:20bit heavy. The jade plate was about the
11:39:22size of two adult palms, and it looked
11:39:24like a small shield when held in the
11:39:26hand. At this moment, Han Xen's eyes
11:39:28darted around, revealing a sly look. I
11:39:31finished the spirit rice wine I got from
11:39:33you last time. Can you sell me some
11:39:35more? Such Chongqing originally intended
11:39:37to take out the remaining grade two
11:39:39spirit rice wine, but then I thought, I
11:39:42should find someone to test the higher
11:39:43quality yellow rice wine. So, he turned
11:39:45around and went inside, then took a
11:39:48pound of yellow rice wine from the
11:39:49kitchen. It smells so good. Han Exine
11:39:52twitched her nostrils, sniffing the
11:39:54pervasive aroma of wine, and her eyes
11:39:56widened instantly. Such Chonqing handed
11:39:59over a pound of yellow rice wine. This
11:40:01is a new product I brewed. Please try
11:40:03it. Prior to this, the second grade
11:40:05spirit rice wine had several negative
11:40:07effects. In contrast, the yellow rice
11:40:10wine of today is completely different.
11:40:12Reaching the masterful hands level has
11:40:14no negative effects. No matter how much
11:40:16you drink, it will not cause any harm to
11:40:18your body. At most, he'll just get
11:40:20completely drunk. Han Xian blinked,
11:40:23snatched the bottle from Su
11:40:24Chongqing<unk>s hand, and without
11:40:26thinking twice, started chugging it down
11:40:28her throat. Glug glug glug. The drink
11:40:31was not spicy. On the contrary, it was
11:40:34quite sweet. In terms of taste, it's
11:40:36even better than Urban Ling rice wine.
11:40:38She drank a whole pound of yellow rice
11:40:40wine in one go, leaving only a tiny bit
11:40:43at the bottom. Such Chongqing asked,
11:40:45"How are you feeling?" Han Exine
11:40:47chuckled foolishly and opened her mouth,
11:40:49saying, "It feels so good." Before he
11:40:52could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly
11:40:54closed and he instantly lost
11:40:55consciousness. Chapter 81. Han Xen was
11:40:58furious after the formation was
11:41:00installed. Chapter 81. After the
11:41:02formation was installed, Han Xen was
11:41:05furious. Hey, you haven't taught me how
11:41:06to use the formation yet. Such Chan Xing
11:41:09was dumbfounded when he encountered this
11:41:11situation for the first time.
11:41:12Fortunately, they reacted quickly.
11:41:14Before Han Xenon landed, it controlled
11:41:17the surrounding weeds to grow wildly,
11:41:19turning them into vines to support her.
11:41:21Then he tossed it into the shuttle next
11:41:23to him. Just kidding. How could someone
11:41:25wreaking of alcohol leave their house?
11:41:27Dog, come here. Su Chongqing called out
11:41:30to the dog house on the other side.
11:41:32Soon, Wong Wong quickly ran to his feet.
11:41:34He smiled obsequiously. He rubbed
11:41:36against it with his body. Such Chanqing
11:41:38pointed at Han Xin, who was drunk inside
11:41:41the shuttle, and said, "Keep an eye on
11:41:43her. If she makes any movement or anyone
11:41:46gets close, remember to call me." Wong
11:41:48Wong blinked, looking like he
11:41:49understood, but not quite. Then, Su
11:41:52Chongqing used the convenient array to
11:41:54head towards the other side of the stone
11:41:56mountain. Wong Wong was curious about
11:41:58the people inside the shuttle and
11:41:59cautiously approached. As soon as it
11:42:01emerged, a pungent sour smell wafted
11:42:04over. It is well known that dogs have a
11:42:06sense of smell that is 40 times stronger
11:42:08than humans. Moreover, this is a spirit
11:42:11beast. Upon smelling the pungent odor,
11:42:13it immediately gagged a few times. Then,
11:42:16while covering his nose with his front
11:42:18foot, he staggered back a few steps.
11:42:20There was no curiosity left in their
11:42:22eyes, only deep disgust. Meanwhile, Su
11:42:26Chongqing had already arrived at the
11:42:28foot of the Rocky Mountain. He did not
11:42:30immediately install the portable array,
11:42:31concealment array. Instead, it goes
11:42:34around in circles, looking at it from
11:42:36all angles. After estimating the
11:42:38approximate area, they turned over the
11:42:40soil in the middle of the cave passage
11:42:42and dug a small pit, then put in the
11:42:44concealment array, which is worth 50
11:42:46mid-grade spirit stones. Of course, this
11:42:49is not the end. Since Hanxen didn't
11:42:52explain how to use the jade plate, he
11:42:54tried to activate it, for example, by
11:42:56infusing it with one's own elemental
11:42:58power. Although it was absorbed, it
11:43:00wasn't activated, so it was obviously
11:43:02useless. Suddenly, Su Chongqing noticed
11:43:05a dent in the center of the jade plate
11:43:07and wondered, "Could it be that I need
11:43:09to insert a spirit stone to activate the
11:43:11concealment array?" Immediately, he took
11:43:13out a low-grade spirit stone and placed
11:43:15it on it. Whoosh! The jade plate
11:43:18generated a powerful suction force,
11:43:20directly pulling the low-grade spirit
11:43:22stone and beginning to absorb the trace
11:43:24amount of spiritual energy inside. At
11:43:26the same time, an invisible aura spread
11:43:29out from this place. Even while inside,
11:43:31Su Chongqin could still smell the
11:43:33fragrance emanating from the mutated
11:43:35spirit rice. He thought for a moment,
11:43:37then turned and walked out of the cave.
11:43:39Once outside, they left the area covered
11:43:42by the concealment array. Sure enough,
11:43:44the unique fragrance of the mutated
11:43:46spirit rice was gone. You can't smell it
11:43:48even at the entrance of the cave, unless
11:43:50you drill into it. Such Chonqing had
11:43:53anticipated this. He had previously
11:43:55blocked the entrance to the cave with
11:43:56stones. They will only move it when they
11:43:58need to enter. Actually, I wasn't in a
11:44:01hurry since formations are quite
11:44:02expensive. Besides, his place was quite
11:44:05remote. Usually, apart from Hubu, people
11:44:08only come when it rains. However, Jeangu
11:44:11has been too frequent lately, so it's
11:44:13better to be safe than sorry. After
11:44:14confirming that the formation was
11:44:16activated and there were no problems, Su
11:44:18Chongqing went back inside. The
11:44:20low-grade spirit stones held on the jade
11:44:22plate have their internal spiritual
11:44:24energy consumed very slowly. It looks
11:44:26like it can hold out for a few more
11:44:28days. This pleased Su Chongqing greatly.
11:44:30After all, I'm a little reluctant to
11:44:32part with the mid-grade spirit stones,
11:44:34but I still have dozens of low-grade
11:44:36spirit stones. If needed, we can just
11:44:38sell some ling rice. The low-grade
11:44:40spirit stones they currently have are
11:44:42enough to last a year. Afterwards, Su
11:44:44Chongqing buried the jade plate and the
11:44:47spirit stones in the soil. They then
11:44:49ventured deeper into the cave and
11:44:50encountered another 100 mutated spirit
11:44:53rice plants. Although it doesn't absorb
11:44:55much sunlight, however, the
11:44:57nutrient-rich black soil coupled with
11:44:59occasional spring irrigation and the
11:45:01forced growth in the Chinglan field
11:45:03provided a good environment for
11:45:04development. They are growing very well
11:45:06now, and each one is very robust. The
11:45:09mutated mother rice still has nine ears
11:45:11of rice. The mutant rice has six ears of
11:45:14rice. because it is still in the growth
11:45:16stage. The rice grains inside are a bit
11:45:18small. They look like tiny grains of
11:45:20gold. Today, mutant mother rice, many
11:45:23children, many blessings. Reichy
11:45:25cultivation, one jang of domain.
11:45:28Basically, there has been no change. It
11:45:30is estimated that even if there are
11:45:32changes, it will take a very very long
11:45:34time. And mutant rice, immature, no
11:45:37damage, abundant spiritual energy. There
11:45:40are no problems at the moment, and it is
11:45:42still growing. With everything settled,
11:45:44Su Chongqing turned and left the cave
11:45:46completely satisfied. Once outside, they
11:45:49immediately blocked the entrance with
11:45:51stones. In this way, there is no
11:45:53entrance and no smell. Even if someone
11:45:55walks by, they won't suspect that
11:45:57there's something inside. The only thing
11:45:59to worry about might be the spirit beast
11:46:01Wong Wong, which has a keen sense of
11:46:03smell. Time flew by and it was already
11:46:06past midnight. Feeling a slight itch in
11:46:08her nose, Han Xen slowly opened her
11:46:10eyes. Before my eyes was a dazzling
11:46:13Milky Way with countless stars twinkling
11:46:16every now and then you can see a
11:46:17fleeting shooting star. The enormous
11:46:19moon casts its cool clear light. Like
11:46:22the eye of a giant, it gazing
11:46:24indifferently at the world below. The
11:46:26sounds of insects chirping and frogs
11:46:28croaking filled the air, adding a touch
11:46:30of vibrancy to the quiet night. Only
11:46:32then did Han Xion's gaze slowly shift
11:46:35downwards, landing on her itchy nose.
11:46:37Unexpectedly, a firefly was perched on
11:46:40the tip of my nose. The yellow green
11:46:42light was not dazzling. On the contrary,
11:46:44it was very dreamy. So, it's evening
11:46:46now. Am I sleeping in the wild? Wait, in
11:46:49the wilderness? The fighting rooster
11:46:52transformed by watching fireflies now
11:46:54harbors boundless rage in its eyes. She
11:46:57immediately shook her head, shoeing away
11:46:59the fireflies that were quietly perched
11:47:01on it. He then climbed up from his
11:47:03shuttle and quickly looked at the wooden
11:47:05house opposite the spirit field. The dog
11:47:07is asleep. The chickens are asleep. The
11:47:09person is asleep. A peaceful and serene
11:47:12scene. Han Xen immediately started
11:47:14cursing. You heartless Sue Chonqing. I
11:47:17came all the way from the earth's veins
11:47:19to deliver this portable array. And you
11:47:21actually let me sleep in the wild. Soon,
11:47:24the window of the wooden house across
11:47:25the street was pushed open, and Su
11:47:27Chongqing poked his head out, put his
11:47:29hands on the windowsill, and chuckled.
11:47:31Men and women shouldn't touch each
11:47:33other, right? Han Xian gritted her teeth
11:47:35upon hearing this. You You have to make
11:47:38it up to me. Su Chongqing blinked.
11:47:40Compensation for what? Han Xen blurted
11:47:43out. The new Lingi wine. Although I only
11:47:46drank it once, I still remember the
11:47:47taste. The sweet taste of the wine still
11:47:50seemed to linger in my mouth. Just
11:47:52thinking about it makes my mouth water.
11:47:53He swallowed unconsciously. Look at your
11:47:56feet. Such Chongqing had already
11:47:58expected this. Hanekx looked down and
11:48:00found a wine flask which she picked up
11:48:02excitedly. But as soon as he felt the
11:48:04weight, his face fell. Judging from her
11:48:06experience as a seasoned drinker, the
11:48:08wine sack contained at most 10 caddies
11:48:11of new wine. Before the other party
11:48:13could get angry, Su Chonqing immediately
11:48:15explained, "Although this new yellow
11:48:17rice wine is of higher quality, the
11:48:19production volume is a bit low, and I
11:48:22myself am reluctant to drink it." Han
11:48:24Xian hummed a few times, then grinned
11:48:26and said, "That's more like it." She
11:48:28immediately unccorked the wine flask
11:48:31plug. After taking a big gulp of the new
11:48:33yellow rice wine, I felt exceptionally
11:48:36refreshed. Seeing this, Su Chongqing
11:48:38couldn't help but shake his head and
11:48:40say, "You should go back early." Han Xen
11:48:43put down her wine flask, her eyes fixed
11:48:45on Su Chongqing in the wooden house
11:48:47opposite the spirit field, filled with
11:48:49greed. She licked her red lips and said
11:48:51fiercely, "I really want to tie you up
11:48:53and take you back to my cave so I can
11:48:55brew wine for you everyday." Chapter 82.
11:48:58The mutant fourleaf clover. The Sun
11:49:00family proposes marriage. Chapter 82.
11:49:03The mutant four-leaf clover. The Sun
11:49:05family proposes marriage at dawn. A
11:49:07faint pale dawn appeared in the east.
11:49:10The noisy chirping of insects and
11:49:11croaking of frogs that had filled the
11:49:13night receded like the tide. With a
11:49:15creek, the door of the wooden house
11:49:17behind the spirit field was opened. Su
11:49:19Chonqing carried a wooden water dividing
11:49:21hoe on his right shoulder and walked out
11:49:23step by step. Wong Wong nestled in its
11:49:26warm doghouse, tilting its head at the
11:49:28sound. Upon seeing its owner, it
11:49:30immediately crawled out of its kennel.
11:49:32It wagged its tail vigorously. While
11:49:34puffing up, it stretched and yawned. He
11:49:36then followed Su Chongqing eagerly, his
11:49:39smile quite obsequious. As for the
11:49:41guinea fowl, it was still curled up in
11:49:43its coupe, fast asleep. Since laying two
11:49:46eggs, it has been sleeping for longer
11:49:48and longer periods of time. Such
11:49:50Chonqing, observing this, asked in
11:49:52surprise, "Wong is still growing because
11:49:54it's not an adult yet. But why has this
11:49:56chicken grown bigger, too? Compared to
11:49:58when I first arrived, my size has
11:50:00increased by at least twice. It's a very
11:50:03large lump. If you don't show your head,
11:50:05it looks just like a football. Despite
11:50:07his doubts, Su Chongqing did not neglect
11:50:09his daily work. He took off his shoes,
11:50:12took the green wood dividing hoe in his
11:50:14right hand, and walked down into the
11:50:16spiritual field where water needs to be
11:50:18diverted, immediately use a hoe to dig a
11:50:21channel, and the weeds were pulled out
11:50:23cleanly with a wave of the hand.
11:50:24Ultimately, I've been farming for three
11:50:26years straight. Therefore, they become
11:50:29increasingly skilled in terms of
11:50:30experience and techniques. Once the
11:50:32first step is done, let's begin the
11:50:34second step of today's discussion. Su
11:50:36Chongqing put away the Greenwood water
11:50:39dividing hoe and then summoned his
11:50:40companion green lotus. Aim at the center
11:50:43of the second grade spirit field and
11:50:45tossed gently. It flew past in a flash
11:50:47and landed steadily as the wood
11:50:49elemental power in the cheese sea begins
11:50:51to be depleted. Instantly, a cool aura
11:50:54spread and permeated the azure lotus
11:50:56domain. Su Chongqing felt refreshed as
11:50:59if he had just taken a shower. The
11:51:01spiritual plants in the spiritual field
11:51:03are spiritual rice and vegetables. They
11:51:05all came alive with new vitality and
11:51:08even their colors deepened. Su Chongqing
11:51:10squinted, taking in the current state of
11:51:12the spirit field. At the current pace,
11:51:15the second harvest can be carried out in
11:51:1710 days at most. It's important to know
11:51:19that the harvesting phase usually takes
11:51:21place at the end of each quarter, but
11:51:23now with the help of the Azure Lotus
11:51:25Realm, it has been completed half a
11:51:27month ahead of schedule. At first
11:51:28glance, half a month may not seem like
11:51:30much. However, if you include all four
11:51:33seasons, each quarter starts half a
11:51:35month earlier. That would give you two
11:51:37extra months in a year, which is
11:51:39equivalent to an extra harvest.
11:51:41Moreover, no profits need to be handed
11:51:43over for this fifth time. It all belongs
11:51:45to me. Next, Su Chongqing activated the
11:51:48fully leveled Ching Xi finger. Starting
11:51:50from the left, apply green dots to each
11:51:52of the rice plants in front of you.
11:51:54Although the chance of each plant
11:51:56mutating is only one in a thousand, but
11:51:59if successful, the rewards can be beyond
11:52:01imagination. Even if we fail, we will
11:52:04only lose a tiny bit of spiritual power.
11:52:06It's safe to say you can make a profit
11:52:08without any risk. Much better than
11:52:10selling spirit rice. Failed at applying
11:52:12the green dye. Failed at applying the
11:52:14green dye. failed at applying the green
11:52:16dye. With each attempt, not a single
11:52:18plant mutated. However, Su Chongqing was
11:52:21not discouraged or disappointed. I've
11:52:23been failing these past few days, not
11:52:25even with vegetables. Therefore, we have
11:52:27long been accustomed to this outcome.
11:52:29Next up were the vegetables. In the
11:52:31summer, we plant Chinese cabbage and
11:52:33watermelon. Without exception, the
11:52:35result was still failure. In the end,
11:52:38only a bunch of four-leaf clovers
11:52:39remained beside the ditch. The vast
11:52:42majority are trifoliate. A few are
11:52:44four-leaf clovers. Not a single plant
11:52:46has a single leaf or two leaves. The
11:52:48spirit rice and vegetables have all
11:52:50mutated. It seems like there aren't any
11:52:52fourleaf clovers yet. Such Chongqing
11:52:55squatted down and began pointing at each
11:52:57one. The four-leaf clover itself is not
11:52:59tall, almost clinging to the water
11:53:01soaked soil. Even the slightest touch,
11:53:04without any force, would cause it to
11:53:06shake violently. One plant, two plants,
11:53:09until the 40th plant. Suddenly, a ding
11:53:11sound rang out. Su Chongqing was taken
11:53:14aback, then looked down at his feet. The
11:53:16four-leaf clover that had just been
11:53:18poked by the green finger was visibly
11:53:20changing. First, there's her size. She
11:53:22was originally small and very cute, but
11:53:25now it continues to expand. The four
11:53:27leaves, in particular, are getting
11:53:29bigger and bigger. The overall color has
11:53:32changed from light green to dark green.
11:53:34At first glance, it has a sense of the
11:53:36heaviness of leaves. Such Chanqing
11:53:38pondered, "If I remember correctly, the
11:53:40records of Spirit Field states that if a
11:53:42four-leaf clover mutates, it is very
11:53:45likely to become a large leaf clover. It
11:53:47has two main functions. One type is
11:53:50provided for the consumption of ancient
11:53:51mythical beasts. Another use is to
11:53:54refine flying tools. When a four-leaf
11:53:56clover mutates into a large leaf clover,
11:53:58it will contain a trace of wind spirit
11:54:01energy. It can be refined from a single
11:54:03leaf and its current market price is 66
11:54:06low-grade spirit stones. If all four are
11:54:08refined together, the flight altitude
11:54:10will be higher and the speed will be
11:54:12faster. The market price is roughly 3 to
11:54:14five mid-grade spirit stones. It belongs
11:54:17to the category of valuable but not
11:54:19abundant. Such Chonqing couldn't help
11:54:21but say, "Several months have passed,
11:54:24and it has finally mutated once."
11:54:26However, he had no intention of selling
11:54:28it. My own advanced flying paper crane
11:54:30was damaged last time in the flower
11:54:32field. In terms of flight speed,
11:54:35distance, and safety, there is a certain
11:54:37degree of reduction. However, the demon
11:54:40wood water avoiding boat is too
11:54:41high-profile and does not fit his
11:54:43low-key style. Using this large leaf
11:54:46grass as a means of transportation seems
11:54:48like a good choice. Generally speaking,
11:54:50apprentices are not qualified to help
11:54:52others with forging. Finding the Luo
11:54:55siblings won't work. It has to be a
11:54:56blacksmith from Forging Peak. Such
11:54:59Chongqing thought for a moment and
11:55:00decided not to rush to have someone
11:55:02customize the big leaf grass flying
11:55:04props. Anyway, there's no rush. Let's
11:55:07wait until summer is over. He then
11:55:09continued to point at the remaining
11:55:10fourleaf clovers. Unexpectedly, it
11:55:13happened on the very last plant. Then
11:55:15another ding sounded. Wow, good things
11:55:17come in pairs. The last four-leaf clover
11:55:19also mutated. Unfortunately, like the
11:55:22first mutated four-leaf clover, it
11:55:24evolved into a large leaf clover. Su
11:55:27Choning pondered, "If there's one more."
11:55:30Just then, a vibration came from the
11:55:32storage bag. It's obvious that someone
11:55:34wants to communicate. Su Choning took it
11:55:36out of the small storage bag and found
11:55:38it somewhat unfamiliar. The
11:55:39communication symbols of characters like
11:55:41Liang Kai, Bilinger, and Hubu. He put
11:55:44them in the most conspicuous places,
11:55:46making it easy to remember who was who.
11:55:49But this communication symbol was
11:55:50actually in a pile of junk. It's obvious
11:55:52that it hasn't been used in a long time.
11:55:55Who? Excuse me. Are you fellow Daist
11:55:57Kai? You're looking for? Yes, it's me. I
11:56:01am Sun Ran from the Sonichcho market.
11:56:03So, it's Patriarch Sunday. What brings
11:56:05you here, fellow Daist Kai? It seems
11:56:07like you haven't been to the rogue
11:56:09cultivator market for several months,
11:56:10have you? What? You finished 500 caddies
11:56:13of grade two spirit rice in one go? No,
11:56:17it's just that we haven't seen each
11:56:18other in a long time and I've missed you
11:56:20a little. He All right, I'll go to the
11:56:23freelance cultivator market in a few
11:56:24days. Really? Really? On the other side
11:56:27in Daing City, the Sun family, a
11:56:30scattered cultivators market. At this
11:56:32moment, two people were standing in the
11:56:34spacious training room. One of them was
11:56:36Son Rome, who had just put down the
11:56:38communication talisman. The other one
11:56:40was very young and looked quite similar
11:56:42to Son Rome. Seeing this, the young man
11:56:44quickly asked, "Father, how are you?"
11:56:47Son Rome smiled slightly. Punger, that
11:56:50fellow Daoist Kai will be coming to the
11:56:52rogue cultivator market in a few days.
11:56:54Your proposal of marriage using second
11:56:56grade spirit rice can finally be put on
11:56:58the agenda. Chapter 83, a lifespan of
11:57:02400 years, Chuchio of the Spirit Beast
11:57:04Valley. Thanks to Honor 123 for the
11:57:07generous gift. Chapter 83 lifespan of
11:57:10400 years. Chuchu Chio of the Spirit
11:57:12Beast Valley. Thanks to Honor 123 for
11:57:15the generous gift. Su Chonqing put down
11:57:17the communication talisman and pondered,
11:57:20"They arrived just in time. I just
11:57:22needed to process a batch of spirit rice
11:57:24and vegetables, especially the two
11:57:26mutated four-leaf clovers. Sell one
11:57:28plant. Leave one plant behind." He was
11:57:31reluctant to hire outside blacksmiths.
11:57:33If someone truly had the ability, they
11:57:35wouldn't be staying in a place like the
11:57:37scattered cultivator market. Conversely,
11:57:39the immortal sects weapon forging peak
11:57:42has many master level blacksmiths. Since
11:57:44there are reliable people around, why
11:57:46take risks outside? As for the source of
11:57:48the large leaf grass, just go to the
11:57:50cultivator market and you'll find it.
11:57:52This thing itself isn't very valuable.
11:57:54It's only slightly better than a flying
11:57:56paper crane. In the following period, Su
11:57:59Chonqing maintained a normal life. 10
11:58:01days passed in the blink of an eye and
11:58:03it was time to harvest the spiritual
11:58:05plants. Such Chongqing stood on the edge
11:58:07of the field with his second grade
11:58:09spirit field in front of him. All the
11:58:11spiritual plants inside all kinds of
11:58:14crops including spirit rice, vegetables,
11:58:16and mutated four-leaf clovers matured.
11:58:19Immediately, spiritual awareness
11:58:21enveloped the entire spiritual field.
11:58:24Information about the sacred rice
11:58:25emerged. Mature abundant spiritual
11:58:28energy, no loss. Second grade spirit
11:58:31rice. Today's best yield for thousand
11:58:34gene. There is no difference between
11:58:36summer and spring. Lingo rice is still
11:58:38of the highest quality. The output
11:58:40remains at 4,000 gene. As for Chinese
11:58:43cabbage and watermelon, there have been
11:58:44some changes from good to top quality.
11:58:48They have all been upgraded to
11:58:49excellent. This is clearly related to
11:58:51the azure lotus domain. Immediately, Su
11:58:54Chongqing picked up a sickle and began
11:58:56harvesting diligently. Harvesting one
11:58:58supreme spirit rice plant increases
11:59:01lifespan by six days. Harvest one
11:59:03premium watermelon and its lifespan
11:59:05increases by 5 days. Harvesting one
11:59:08premium cabbage increases its lifespan
11:59:10by 5 days. As their strength increases,
11:59:14the speed and efficiency of harvesting
11:59:16become faster and faster. What used to
11:59:18take an hour can now be done in half an
11:59:20hour. What I gain this time, the
11:59:22vegetables brimming with vitality
11:59:24weighed hundreds of kilg. The yield of
11:59:26second grade Lingi rice remains at 4,000
11:59:29gene. Subtract the500 gene submitted to
11:59:32the immortal sect. Subtract 150 gene
11:59:35from Hubuga. Subtract 50 gene of Han Su.
11:59:39Subtract 800 gene from Lee Lingbai's
11:59:41weight. There are 1500 gene left. In
11:59:44addition to the existing stock of 5,000
11:59:46gene today, the total amount of second
11:59:48grade Lingi rice has reached 6,500 gene.
11:59:52Based on the current market ratio, which
11:59:54is 1 minute and 1.3 seconds, it can be
11:59:57sold for 5,000 low-grade spirit stones.
12:00:00This is equivalent to 50 mid-grade
12:00:02spirit stones. Unfortunately, no mutated
12:00:05vegetables appeared this time. This may
12:00:07be related to the early maturity of
12:00:09spiritual plants. Of course, it could
12:00:11also be attributed to Su Chongqing's bad
12:00:13luck. This harvest increases lifespan to
12:00:1613,367
12:00:18days. That's equivalent to 36 years.
12:00:21Today the total lifespan has increased
12:00:23to 146,153
12:00:26days. Converted to years, it is exactly
12:00:29400 years. Such Chonqing is a cultivator
12:00:32in the early stages of foundation
12:00:33establishment. His lifespan has far
12:00:35exceeded that of all his fellow
12:00:37disciples. They are even approaching the
12:00:39level of golden core cultivators.
12:00:41However, this is not the end. Such
12:00:43Chonqing still had two four-leaf clovers
12:00:46left to harvest. The mutated four-leaf
12:00:48clover is now called big leaf clover.
12:00:50Mutant large leaf grass contains the
12:00:53spirit of wind. Mature. Harvestable.
12:00:56Such Chonqing did not hesitate and
12:00:58decisively swung his sickle. Harvest one
12:01:00mutant large leaf grass plant. Lifespan
12:01:03increased by 10 days. Harvest one mutant
12:01:06large leaf grass plant. Lifespan
12:01:08increased by 10 days. Simply add 20 days
12:01:11to your lifespan. At this point, there
12:01:13was nothing left in Sue Chongqing<unk>s
12:01:15spirit field. But he still didn't go to
12:01:17the market town for rogue cultivators.
12:01:19Instead, we had to wait another 5 days.
12:01:22Then they arrived at the stone mountain
12:01:24where the mutated spirit rice was
12:01:25hidden. Because of the array, the smell
12:01:28cannot be detected from the outside.
12:01:30However, Su Chongqing irrigated the
12:01:32spring every few days, knowing that the
12:01:34mutated spirit rice inside had matured.
12:01:37Therefore, he moved the heavy stone
12:01:39blocking the entrance and quickly
12:01:41crawled inside. First, they unearthed
12:01:43the buried portable array. I checked the
12:01:45low-grade spirit stones on it. Seeing
12:01:47that half of the spiritual energy
12:01:49remained, he was satisfied and buried it
12:01:51again. They continued to venture deeper
12:01:54and finally saw all the mutated spirit
12:01:56rice. Mature, undamaged, abundant
12:01:59spiritual energy yield 40 gene. Whether
12:02:02it's the mutated mother rice or the
12:02:04daughter rice, the rice grains on the
12:02:06ears of rice were all exceptionally
12:02:08plump. It is almost indistinguishable
12:02:10from gold particles. It shimmerred with
12:02:12a dazzling golden light that even
12:02:14dazzled Such Chanqing. Harvesting one
12:02:17mutant rice plant increases its lifespan
12:02:19by 10 days. Harvesting one mutant rice
12:02:22plant increases its lifespan by 10 days.
12:02:25Harvesting one mutant rice plant
12:02:27increases its lifespan by 10 days. He
12:02:30quickly harvested all the mutated rice
12:02:32with a sickle. Add another 1,000 days to
12:02:35lifespan. The total lifespan reached
12:02:38147,148
12:02:40days. As for the mutated mother rice,
12:02:42Such Chongqing still retains it. with
12:02:44her around. It's like having a
12:02:46continuous supply of mutated rice.
12:02:48Conversely, rice varieties are bred
12:02:50again after the mutant rice is
12:02:52harvested. Both the quality and the
12:02:54spiritual energy content are inferior.
12:02:57At this point, all the spiritual plants
12:02:59that Su Chongqing had planted in the
12:03:01summer had been harvested cleanly, but
12:03:03they didn't rush to the market town for
12:03:04rogue cultivators. Instead, she went
12:03:07home and started cooking for Wong Wong
12:03:09and Guinea Fowl. I'll be going to the
12:03:11market town for cultivators, and I
12:03:13definitely won't be back until the next
12:03:14day. Compared to the Sun family, who
12:03:17urgently needed second grade spirit rice
12:03:19to propose marriage, Su Chan was more
12:03:21concerned about whether his two spirit
12:03:23beasts would go hungry. They would
12:03:25prepare lunch and dinner and then fill
12:03:27the basin with clean spring water. Only
12:03:29then, wearing a straw hat and riding a
12:03:31tattered paper crane, did he leisurely
12:03:33head towards Forging Peak. When they
12:03:36arrived, they found that the arena was
12:03:38still there. Even after so many days,
12:03:40many formal disciples are still
12:03:42competing. The scene was very lively
12:03:44with people walking around everywhere.
12:03:46Some people even went so far as to
12:03:48create a ranking system before the
12:03:50official disciple competition. The
12:03:52people who appeared before include Lion,
12:03:54Sher Gandang, Rang Yin, Huan, and Jian
12:03:57Haning. They all ranked at the top.
12:04:00However, to Sue Chongqing surprise, none
12:04:02of these five people came in first
12:04:04place. A completely unfamiliar name
12:04:06suddenly topped the list. This person's
12:04:09name is Chuchio. Who is this Chuchio
12:04:11from Spirit Beast Valley? He has dual
12:04:14spiritual roots of water and wood, and
12:04:16he was even chosen by a
12:04:17thousand-year-old spirit beast. Damn, no
12:04:20wonder he can outmaneuver Lon Tion and
12:04:22the others. Such Chongqing sat
12:04:25cross-legged on the giant flying sword,
12:04:27listening to the conversations of the
12:04:29people around him. I thought the five
12:04:31members of Blue Sky were already
12:04:32excellent enough, especially this Blue
12:04:34Sky. Although it has a single spiritual
12:04:37route, it can obtain a growing spiritual
12:04:39weapon that recognizes it as its master.
12:04:42Unexpectedly, an even more extraordinary
12:04:44being emerged from the spirit beast
12:04:46valley. Not only does he possess dual
12:04:49spiritual roots, but he also has high
12:04:51comprehension. It especially gained the
12:04:53favor of a thousand-year-old spirit
12:04:55beast. Su Chonqing couldn't help but
12:04:57sigh. Sure enough, with the formal
12:04:59disciple competition about to begin, all
12:05:02sorts of geniuses and prodigies will
12:05:04take turns appearing. There's still a
12:05:06year until the official disciple
12:05:07competition, and someone even more
12:05:09powerful than Chu Chio might emerge.
12:05:12However, this has nothing to do with Su
12:05:14Chonqing. He was just one of the
12:05:16thousands of spiritual farmers in the
12:05:17spiritual field. Just focus on farming,
12:05:20honestly. The storms and trials outside
12:05:22were unimportant to him. The terms
12:05:24genius, prodigy, and chosen one are
12:05:27utterly meaningless. No matter how
12:05:29talented or fortunate you are, a
12:05:31thousand years from now, you'll just be
12:05:33a handful of dust. Chapter 84. Fragment
12:05:36of the dragon shaking technique. Unknown
12:05:38seed. Chapter 84. Fragments of the
12:05:40dragon shaking technique depicts Su
12:05:43Chongqing, an unknown seed, slowly
12:05:45departing from the sword pavilion aboard
12:05:47a giant flying sword. Upon reaching a
12:05:50safe distance and altitude, it
12:05:52immediately began to vibrate, instantly
12:05:54transforming into a golden streak of
12:05:56light that streaked across the sky for
12:05:58thousands of meters. Lee, just then, a
12:06:01sharp cry of a crane came from behind.
12:06:04Everyone on the giant flying sword
12:06:06simultaneously felt a heavy pressure. Su
12:06:09Chongqing and the people around him all
12:06:11reacted in unison, turning their heads
12:06:13to look behind them. Instantly, a huge
12:06:15flying crane appeared in his pupils. The
12:06:18wingspan should exceed 20 m. It was
12:06:20surrounded by one round bubble after
12:06:22another. On the back of the flying crane
12:06:24stood a young man with a cold and stern
12:06:26face. The other person was wearing the
12:06:28white casual clothes that only formal
12:06:30disciples wear. Soon the flying crane
12:06:33transformed into a massive shadow
12:06:35enveloping Su Chongqing and the others.
12:06:38Isn't this Lord Hi-Chi? Then the person
12:06:40on its back must be Chu Chio. Good
12:06:43heavens, its speed is even faster than a
12:06:46giant flying sword that has an array and
12:06:48is powered by spirit stones. As they got
12:06:51closer, everyone could finally see the
12:06:53person and the crane clearly. Fea ranks
12:06:55seventh in the spirit beast valley.
12:06:57Everyone calls him Lord Crane 7. It is a
12:07:00thousand-year-old spirit beast with
12:07:02extremely strong power. And the person
12:07:04it recognized as its master was
12:07:06naturally Chu Chio, the number one
12:07:08person in the spirit beast valley.
12:07:10Fortunately, neither Hi-Chi nor Chuchio
12:07:12were passing by. I only glanced at them
12:07:14as I passed by, nothing more. The
12:07:17oppressive pressure only subsided after
12:07:19the man and the crane departed. Everyone
12:07:21was able to catch their breath. As
12:07:23expected of a thousand-year-old spirit
12:07:25beast, the sense of oppression is truly
12:07:27strong. Such Choning<unk>s expression
12:07:29changed slightly. He had inquired about
12:07:31it with Hubu. In the spirit beast
12:07:33valley, only the most powerful spirit
12:07:35beasts are ranked. The Crane 19 I saw on
12:07:38the outskirts before, as the name
12:07:40suggests, is ranked 19th. The Crane 7,
12:07:43who just flashed by, is one of the top
12:07:4510 most powerful beings in the entire
12:07:47Spirit Beast Valley. Fortunately, this
12:07:50was just a minor incident. Nothing
12:07:52unexpected happened in the following
12:07:53period. An hour later, they finally saw
12:07:56Doning City and the enormous Daing Tree.
12:07:59Such Chonqing didn't go to the
12:08:00invitation to fragrance pavilion this
12:08:02time, but instead chose an in at random.
12:08:05Then they took off the white robes of
12:08:06the Dong Ting immortal sect and put on
12:08:08ordinary black clothes. Then he put on a
12:08:11fake mustache and his whole demeanor
12:08:13immediately became more composed and
12:08:15mature. He looked like an old reclusive
12:08:18cultivator who had been tempered by the
12:08:19passage of time. Such people are
12:08:21commonplace throughout Daing City,
12:08:23appearing quite ordinary. Only then did
12:08:25Su Chongqing leave the inn. Although he
12:08:28had arrived at the Sonichcho market, he
12:08:29did not immediately notify the Sun
12:08:31family. Instead, they went to each
12:08:33Lingmi trading point to inquire about
12:08:35the current market share. Not much
12:08:37different from the last time I came. The
12:08:39ratio of grade 2 spirit rice is still 1
12:08:41minute and 1.3 seconds. One low-grade
12:08:44spirit stone can be exchanged for 1.3
12:08:47gene of second grade highquality spirit
12:08:49rice. As for premium lingi rice, the
12:08:52current ratio is 1:6. In other words,
12:08:55one low-grade spirit stone can be
12:08:56exchanged for six caddies of first grade
12:08:58highquality spirit rice regardless of
12:09:01whether it is first grade or second
12:09:02grade spiritual rice. As long as the
12:09:05quality reaches the highest level,
12:09:07basically there's no market for it. You
12:09:09simply can't buy it. Once the spirit
12:09:11rice reaches the highest grade, it is
12:09:13basically monopolized by the owner of
12:09:15this market for rogue cultivators,
12:09:17namely the golden core king, and rarely
12:09:19flows out. For independent cultivators,
12:09:22the rarer the daily resources, the less
12:09:24willing they are to share them. Unlike
12:09:26top tier cultivation sex and families,
12:09:28they do not have sufficient resources.
12:09:30To put it bluntly, independent
12:09:32cultivators are all a bit petty. There's
12:09:34not enough for myself. How could I
12:09:36possibly share it with others? Su
12:09:38Chonqing obtained 800 gene of first
12:09:40grade spiritual rice after killing Jeang
12:09:42and his group here last time. As for
12:09:44quality, all of them are of excellent
12:09:46quality. Next, he sold them in batches
12:09:49from the three Lingi trading houses. A
12:09:51total of 114 low-grade spirit stones
12:09:54were obtained. They then swaggered
12:09:56toward the auction house. Last time I
12:09:58came here, I bought the Aoki water
12:10:00spplitter here. I wonder if anything new
12:10:02has come up after several months. When I
12:10:04came in, I found that it really was
12:10:06there. Earth rank spell dragon shaking
12:10:08technique, page one. Yes, that's right.
12:10:11It's just one of those pages. However,
12:10:13the starting bid was a whopping 50
12:10:15mid-grade spirit stones. Many
12:10:17independent cultivators even came
12:10:19specifically for this item. I'll offer
12:10:2160 mid-grade spirit stones. This shaking
12:10:24dragon technique is an exclusive
12:10:25cultivation method for earth
12:10:27cultivators. I'll offer 70 mid-grade
12:10:29spirit stones. 100 mid-grade spirit
12:10:32stones. I am Wong Hi from the third
12:10:34demon hunting team. Please give me some
12:10:36face. It was quickly snapped up by
12:10:38people for over a 100 mid-grade spirit
12:10:40stones. Even so, there were still quite
12:10:42a few people bidding. Someone wants even
12:10:44a single page. Su Chongqing raised an
12:10:47eyebrow. He might be interested if it
12:10:49were a fragment. But if it's only one
12:10:51page, then all that's left is curiosity.
12:10:54After all, the system can be used to
12:10:56deduce the complete fragment. This page
12:10:58with no beginning or end, who knows if
12:11:01it can even get you started. In the end,
12:11:03everyone still gave Wong He of the third
12:11:05demon hunting team some face. Let the
12:11:07other party acquire the incomplete page
12:11:09of the shaking dragon technique for 300
12:11:12mid-grade spirit stones. At this moment,
12:11:15the man hosting the auction spoke up. I
12:11:17believe everyone remembers that a few
12:11:19months ago in the Black Forest, a
12:11:21500-year-old rolling dragon emerged from
12:11:24the ground, right? Of course, someone
12:11:26quickly responded. Wong Hi, especially
12:11:29from the third demon hunting team, had a
12:11:31very serious expression because they
12:11:33were involved in the hunt at the time
12:11:35and suffered heavy casualties. Su
12:11:37Chongqing estimated the time and
12:11:39realized it was the day he first came to
12:11:41the Sonichcho market. Then the host
12:11:43continued, "This item is the five
12:11:45undigested spirit plant seeds from the
12:11:47stomach of the rolling dragon." Many
12:11:49people were surprised by these words.
12:11:52Such Chongqing became even more
12:11:53interested. As a wood elemental spirit
12:11:56farmer, farming is his greatest hobby.
12:11:58Since the seed was not digested in the
12:12:00stomach of the 500-year-old demon, it
12:12:02shows that it has strong vitality. Five
12:12:05seeds of unknown species of spiritual
12:12:07plant. The starting bid is 20 mid-grade
12:12:10spirit stones, and each bid must be at
12:12:12least one mid-grade spirit stone. The
12:12:14host announced the start of the bidding.
12:12:16At this point, someone stood up and
12:12:18asked, "Excuse me, host, is it that no
12:12:21one has identified these seeds? Or is it
12:12:24that even after identification, their
12:12:26origin remains unknown?" The host
12:12:28replied, "We sought out the most
12:12:30professional spiritual farmers to
12:12:32identify it, but because the seeds were
12:12:34severely corroded, no one knew what kind
12:12:36of spiritual plant it was." Such
12:12:38Chanqing immediately understood. If it
12:12:41were something else, how could it
12:12:42possibly end up in an auction house? It
12:12:44is obvious that the five unidentified
12:12:47seeds were put up for auction because no
12:12:48one wanted them. If someone buys it, the
12:12:51seller behind the scenes doesn't lose
12:12:52money either. If no one buys them,
12:12:54they're not in a hurry to cultivate
12:12:56them. Anyway, it's a sure thing to make
12:12:58money. If it's an unknown entity, the
12:13:00risk is quite high. It wasn't even
12:13:03digested in the stomach of a great
12:13:04demon. It's definitely not simple. I'm
12:13:07interested in collecting them. 21
12:13:09mid-grade spirit stones. Immediately,
12:13:12people began to bid. Compared to the
12:13:14excitement surrounding the fragments of
12:13:15the shaking dragon technique earlier,
12:13:18this was quite a spectacle. Not many
12:13:20people participated this time. No more
12:13:22than 10 in total. Most of them were
12:13:24driven by curiosity. The further along
12:13:26the bidding process goes, the fewer
12:13:28people participate. Such Chongqing
12:13:30wasn't in a hurry. Only after 31
12:13:32mid-grade spirit stones and a long
12:13:34period without any bidding did he
12:13:36announce loudly, 33 mid-grade spirit
12:13:39stones. Chapter 85, Son Pong throws
12:13:41himself into her arms and the miraculous
12:13:44use of spirit rice wine. Chapter 85, Son
12:13:47Pungi throws himself into her arms and
12:13:49the spirit rice wine is a wonderful
12:13:51gift. Congratulations to this fellow
12:13:53Dowist for acquiring the five unknown
12:13:56seeds from the stomach of the
12:13:57500-year-old rolling dragon for 33
12:14:00mid-grade spirit stones. The host
12:14:02congratulated with a smile. Soon the
12:14:04auction house staff brought out a jade
12:14:06plate. Five spirit plant seeds of
12:14:08different sizes are arranged on top.
12:14:10Some are as big as a fingernail. Some
12:14:12are as small as a grain of rice. The
12:14:15three are light green. One is yellowish
12:14:17brown. One is dark red. Such Chongqing
12:14:20handed 33 mid-grade spirit stones to the
12:14:22staff and then put five seeds into his
12:14:24storage bag. He wasn't in a hurry to
12:14:26check it now since the auction was still
12:14:28ongoing. The next item then sparked a
12:14:31frenzy of buying. Its name is Dingshan
12:14:33seal. It turned out to be a damaged
12:14:35spiritual artifact containing 1,000th of
12:14:38the yellow aura. Although it's a bit
12:14:39damaged, it's still usable. It's just a
12:14:42little less powerful, only about 70% of
12:14:45the original power. Su Chongqing
12:14:47observed this and thought to himself,
12:14:49"It seems that everything at this
12:14:50auction is related to the earth spirit
12:14:52route. That shaking dragon skill we just
12:14:55used is an earth attribute skill. The
12:14:57five spirit plant seeds I obtained were
12:14:59taken from the stomach of the rolling
12:15:01dragon. Now, offensive magical artifacts
12:15:03that require earth elemental power to
12:15:05activate have appeared. This is no
12:15:08coincidence. Something extraordinary
12:15:10must have happened deep in the black
12:15:11forest." After a while, seeing that
12:15:14there was nothing else of interest, Su
12:15:15Chongqing got up and left. After leaving
12:15:18the house, I walked to a secluded
12:15:20corner. Take a break. He took out Sun Rs
12:15:22communication talisman. Hello, it's me,
12:15:25Kai Kuen. Fellow Dowist Kai, have you
12:15:28arrived at the marketplace for
12:15:29unaffiliated cultivators? Yes, I have
12:15:32arrived. Tell me the location and I'll
12:15:34send someone there to make the deal.
12:15:36Such Chonqing quickly told the other
12:15:38party his location. Then they waited
12:15:40patiently. Not long after, a young man
12:15:42who looked quite similar to Sun Rome
12:15:44appeared. He was holding a communication
12:15:46talisman that could sense location. You
12:15:49are you fellow Daist Kai? Sunpong was
12:15:51quite excited. Although this person's
12:15:53appearance differed somewhat from the
12:15:55description given by his father, but
12:15:57there's only one person here, so it
12:15:59shouldn't be wrong. Su Chan countered,
12:16:01"Who are you?" Sun Pong hurriedly
12:16:03introduced himself. My name is Sunpong
12:16:05and Son Rome is my father. Su Chongqing
12:16:08said with slight dissatisfaction. Don't
12:16:10change people so frequently. Sun Pong
12:16:13nodded nervously. Don't worry. From now
12:16:15on, it will be just you and me doing
12:16:18business alone. Without wasting any
12:16:20words, Su Chonqing directly took out 500
12:16:23gene of second grade spiritual rice. It
12:16:25really is top grade spirit rice produced
12:16:27from a second grade spirit field. Sun
12:16:30Pong was shocked as he saw it. To be
12:16:32honest, when my father first took out
12:16:33the top grade spiritual rice, he once
12:16:36thought the other person was crazy.
12:16:37After all, the spirit rice produced in
12:16:40both first grade and second grade spirit
12:16:41fields is the same. As long as the
12:16:44quality is topnotch, it will attract
12:16:46countless people to compete for it.
12:16:48Moreover, with prices remaining high,
12:16:50it's not something that can be obtained
12:16:51so easily. What about spirit stones? Su
12:16:54Chongqing raised an eyebrow. Sun Pong
12:16:57then came to his senses and said
12:16:58apologetically, "I'm sorry. I was a
12:17:01little nervous for my first transaction.
12:17:03Please forgive me, fellow Daist Kai.
12:17:05Here are five mid-grade spirit stones.
12:17:07Such Chonqing was slightly surprised.
12:17:10Five Sun Pong explained with a smile.
12:17:12Although the market ratio has not
12:17:14changed, my father thinks it is not easy
12:17:16for fellow Daist Kai to come to the
12:17:18free-for-all market. So the extra amount
12:17:20is equivalent to travel expenses. Upon
12:17:23hearing this, Su Chongqing laughed. One
12:17:25medium-rade spirit stone is equal to 100
12:17:28low-grade spirit stones. I only earned
12:17:3040 low-grade spirit stones in total from
12:17:33the round trip. If it's really just for
12:17:35travel expenses, why not just give them
12:17:36a low-grade one? At this moment, Sunpong
12:17:39took out an invitation and asked quite
12:17:41politely, "Fellow Dowist Kai, I will be
12:17:44getting married next month. Would you do
12:17:46me the honor of attending?" Such
12:17:47Chonqing shrugged. I might not have the
12:17:49time. Sun Pong waved his hand and said,
12:17:52"It's all right. It's fine whether you
12:17:54come or not." Upon seeing this, Su
12:17:57Chongqing accepted the red wedding
12:17:59invitation, then took out a pile of top
12:18:01quality vegetables from his small
12:18:02storage bag and said, "This is my
12:18:04wedding gift." Sun Pong saw that it was
12:18:07vegetables, and although he smiled on
12:18:09the surface, he didn't care in his
12:18:10heart. Only after sensing the rich
12:18:12spiritual energy contained within did
12:18:15they widen their eyes. Lingi is of the
12:18:17highest quality. So that's one thing.
12:18:19These vegetables are actually top
12:18:21quality. The talent of this fellow
12:18:22Dowist Kai and planting is terrifying.
12:18:25Seeing the other party's slow response,
12:18:27Su Chongqing asked with a half smile.
12:18:29Don't want it? Sunpong quickly and
12:18:32solemnly accepted the gift. Thank you
12:18:34for your gift. With these vegetables
12:18:36full of spiritual energy, my guest will
12:18:38definitely be very satisfied when I get
12:18:40married. If it were just ordinary
12:18:42vegetables, he certainly wouldn't need
12:18:44to pay so much attention to them. But
12:18:46vegetables like spirit rice contain a
12:18:48rich spiritual energy. When the wedding
12:18:50is held, the guests will definitely rave
12:18:52about it. In this way, the Sun family's
12:18:55reputation and fame will be enhanced.
12:18:57Goodbye. Such Chongqing turned to leave.
12:19:00Sun Pong quickly called out, "Wait." Su
12:19:03Chongqing turned around and said with a
12:19:05hint of impatience, "Is there anything
12:19:07else?" Sun Pong carefully put away the
12:19:09vegetables and spirit rice, then took
12:19:12out a transparent crystal ball. This
12:19:14item is called the water absorption bead
12:19:16and it can be considered an everyday
12:19:18spiritual artifact. I obtained it by
12:19:20chance while I was out there. It can
12:19:22store 166 sh June 6th and six gene of
12:19:26liquid. That translates to 10 tons or 10
12:19:29cubic meters. Su Chongqing curiously
12:19:31took it in his hand. Liquid Sun Pong
12:19:34added rainwater, fresh water, sea water,
12:19:36whatever kind of water it is, as long as
12:19:38it is liquid can be stored in it and you
12:19:41can even raise fish in it. Su Chongqing
12:19:43found it quite interesting. So he put it
12:19:45into his storage bag and waved his hand
12:19:48saying goodbye. Watching the departing
12:19:50figure, Sun Pong took a deep breath.
12:19:52Father is right. If we can build a good
12:19:54relationship with this fellow Daist Kai,
12:19:57the Sun family will surely rise in Daing
12:19:59City in the future. Perhaps we can send
12:20:01our descendants to a celestial sect to
12:20:03obtain the best resources for
12:20:05cultivation. On his way back to the inn,
12:20:08Su Chonqing casually bought three
12:20:10bottles of spirit rice wine. They are
12:20:12all the most popular types in the
12:20:14current independent cultivator market.
12:20:16People flock to buy it everyday. Back in
12:20:18his room, he sat cross-legged on the bed
12:20:20and began to savor each dish. I just
12:20:23drank the first batch of Lingi wine. Sh.
12:20:26He vomited it out the next second. Such
12:20:28Chanqing looked down and as I twitched.
12:20:30Good grief, it wasn't filtered properly.
12:20:32There are grain residues. He placed the
12:20:35first bottle of Lingi wine aside with a
12:20:37look of disgust. Then pick up the second
12:20:39one. This time, I made a special check
12:20:41to see if there were any residues.
12:20:42Seeing that it was fairly clean, I took
12:20:44a small bite, but he quickly frowned.
12:20:47The second shop's rice wine was clean,
12:20:49but it tasted a bit sour. The brewing
12:20:51quality seems rather low. The reason it
12:20:53was able to sell is probably related to
12:20:55its low price. Next up was the third
12:20:57restaurant, which also had the longest
12:20:59queue. As soon as the stopper was
12:21:01opened, a rich aroma of grains filled
12:21:04the air. Such Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit
12:21:06up, and he immediately poured it into
12:21:08his mouth. It has a low alcohol content
12:21:10and a slightly sweet taste. Of all the
12:21:12spirit rice wines I've encountered so
12:21:14far, this is the one with the highest
12:21:16brewing quality. No wonder it's selling
12:21:18so well in the market for rogue
12:21:20cultivators. Unfortunately, it's still a
12:21:22bit lacking compared to my spirit rice
12:21:24wine, Su Chonqing said with a confident
12:21:27smile. He immediately looked at the
12:21:28attribute panel. Lingi wine expert.
12:21:31Effect one, increases spiritual energy
12:21:34absorption speed by 20% within 1 hour.
12:21:37Effect two, spiritual energy consumption
12:21:39during the use of wood type techniques
12:21:41minus 15%. Effect three, increases the
12:21:45speed of learning low-level skills by
12:21:4715% when slightly tipsy. Effect four,
12:21:50increases the speed of learning advanced
12:21:52techniques by 5% while slightly tipsy.
12:21:55Negative effect one, long-term
12:21:57consumption will continuously reduce
12:21:58reaction speed. Negative effect two,
12:22:01long-term consumption may damage
12:22:03internal organs. Should I consume 1888
12:22:06days of my lifespan to upgrade the
12:22:08spirit rice wine expert to master? Yes.
12:22:11Chapter 86. Refining large leaf grass
12:22:14and cultivating new seeds. Chapter 86.
12:22:17Refining the large leaf grass and
12:22:18cultivating new seeds. Successfully
12:22:21consumed 1888 days of lifespan to
12:22:24upgrade the spirit rice wine to the
12:22:26masterful level. Remaining lifespan
12:22:29144,265
12:22:31days. The miraculous use of Lingi wine.
12:22:34Effect one, increases spiritual energy
12:22:37absorption speed by 40% within one hour.
12:22:40Effect two, spiritual energy consumption
12:22:42during wood-based cultivation techniques
12:22:44is reduced by 30%. Effect three,
12:22:48increases the speed of learning
12:22:49low-level skills by 30% while slightly
12:22:52tipsy. Effect four, increases the speed
12:22:54of learning advanced techniques by 10%
12:22:57while slightly tipsy. Negative effect
12:22:59one, long-term consumption may slightly
12:23:02slow down reaction speed. Negative
12:23:04effect two, long-term consumption may
12:23:06cause minor damage to internal organs.
12:23:09Special effect improves the digestion
12:23:11efficiency of glutenous rice after
12:23:13drinking. The basic effects are doubled.
12:23:15All negative effects are reduced to a
12:23:17minimum and the special effect is aimed
12:23:19at improving the digestibility of the
12:23:22spirit rice. Su Chongqing nodded
12:23:24slightly after reading it. He was not
12:23:26surprised at all by this result. After
12:23:28all, spirit rice wine is the lowest
12:23:30grade of alcoholic beverage in the
12:23:32entire tanuan realm. People even drink
12:23:34the kind that has residue or is sour.
12:23:37Those of us with higher quality content
12:23:39will definitely not lack an audience or
12:23:41market. What needs to be done now is to
12:23:43find a partner with whom we can
12:23:44cooperate in the long term. The Sun
12:23:46family is quite good, but this
12:23:48transaction has already been completed.
12:23:50We can only have a proper talk about it
12:23:52next time, such as when Sun Pong gets
12:23:54married. Before we knew it, it was the
12:23:56next day. Su Chongqing changed into the
12:23:58clothes of a disciple of the immortal
12:24:00sect and then boarded the giant flying
12:24:02sword. An hour later, they returned to
12:24:04the immortal sect without incident. The
12:24:07competition on the stage was in full
12:24:08swing. Such Chongqing glanced at it a
12:24:11few times, then entered the main hall on
12:24:13the other side. The casting peak is the
12:24:15same as the core of the spirit field.
12:24:17They all have a place to manage the
12:24:19formal disciples. Such Chongqing was
12:24:21visiting for the first time. As soon as
12:24:23he crossed the threshold, he felt the
12:24:25intense heat rushing towards him.
12:24:27Although the palace was enormous, the
12:24:29interior was extremely hot, and many
12:24:31busy apprentices could be seen
12:24:32shirtless. Soon, a strong-looking male
12:24:35apprentice stepped forward and asked,
12:24:37"Fellow Daist, is there something you
12:24:39need?" Su Choning immediately said, "I
12:24:42need to forge a means of
12:24:43transportation." The male apprentice
12:24:45nodded slightly upon hearing this. May I
12:24:48ask what kind of transportation you are
12:24:50using? Su Chongqing took out a large
12:24:52leaf grass. This one. After taking it
12:24:54over, the male apprentice observed it
12:24:56and immediately recognized it as a large
12:24:59leaf clover, a variant of the four-leaf
12:25:01clover. He said, "The price for refining
12:25:03varies depending on the level of the
12:25:05blacksmith." Su Chongqing asked
12:25:07curiously, "What levels are they? What's
12:25:09the price?" The male apprentice began
12:25:11his introduction. The price for a
12:25:13disciple who has completed their
12:25:15apprenticeship is 50 low-grade spirit
12:25:17stones and there is a possibility of
12:25:19failure in refining. Expert level
12:25:21blacksmith priced at one mid-grade
12:25:23spirit stone with a low failure rate can
12:25:26produce spirit patterns. Masterle
12:25:28blacksmith priced at two mid-grade
12:25:30spirit stones almost never fails. Spirit
12:25:33patterns are clear. As for grandmaster
12:25:35level masters, they don't take on
12:25:37private jobs. Su Chongqing thought about
12:25:40it carefully for a while and then said,
12:25:42"Let's find an expert. This is just a
12:25:44means of transportation. There's no need
12:25:46to find a master blacksmith." At this
12:25:48moment, the male apprentice took out a
12:25:50mirror. This contains the working hours,
12:25:53appearance, gender, age, and even the
12:25:55success rate of the currently available
12:25:58expert level blacksmiths. Su Chongqing
12:26:00went over to check and found that only
12:26:02three expert level blacksmiths were
12:26:04available. Two men and one woman. The
12:26:06men are named Xiao Yiming and Jang Son.
12:26:09The woman's name is Zhu Tong. Su
12:26:11Chongqing was immediately attracted to
12:26:13the female blacksmith around 40 years
12:26:15old. Bald. We have over 10 years of
12:26:18forging experience. The success rate of
12:26:20the magical artifact reached 70% which
12:26:23is higher than the other two. His
12:26:25appearance is somewhat androgynous.
12:26:27What's most attractive about her is her
12:26:29exaggerated pectoral muscles. He is the
12:26:31most robust and imposing of the three
12:26:33master blacksmiths. It looks like it
12:26:35could crush a fully grown brown bear to
12:26:37death. The male apprentice asked, "Which
12:26:40one do you choose, fellow Dowist?" Su
12:26:42Chongqing immediately said, "Her Zhu
12:26:45Tong." The male apprentice nodded.
12:26:47"Okay, please leave your name, address,
12:26:49refining fee, and communication
12:26:51talisman." Su Chongqing did as
12:26:53instructed without hesitation. The money
12:26:55has been paid. The name is filled in.
12:26:58The address has been left. The
12:26:59communication token has also been handed
12:27:02over. The male apprentice smiled and
12:27:04said, "It is expected to be completed
12:27:06within 7 days. If it is completed ahead
12:27:08of schedule or fails, we will notify you
12:27:11with a communication talisman." Such
12:27:13Chonqing couldn't help but ask, "What if
12:27:15we fail?" The male apprentice replied,
12:27:17"If we fail, we will refund half of the
12:27:20spirit stones. It's all right." Such
12:27:22Chonqing nodded. Then the male
12:27:24apprentice turned and left with the
12:27:26large leave grass. Such Chonqing also
12:27:28quickly left the bustling palace. Once
12:27:31outside, I finally felt a bit of
12:27:33coolness. Then they ignored their fellow
12:27:35disciples who were fighting in the
12:27:36arena. He immediately rode the tattered
12:27:38paper crane towards his own sacred
12:27:40field. When they got home, both spirit
12:27:42beasts were very happy. Wong Wong rubbed
12:27:45against Su Chongqing<unk>s legs as if
12:27:47sniffing out the scent of other dogs.
12:27:49The guinea fowl also wanted to get
12:27:51closer, but when it thought about being
12:27:52elbowed away by Wong Wong, it had no
12:27:55choice but to give up. Such Chonqing
12:27:57glanced at the two little ones food
12:27:59bowls and water bowls. The food is all
12:28:01gone. There's still some water left. I
12:28:03hadn't eaten yet, so I quickly went into
12:28:05the kitchen. Half an hour later, the
12:28:08man, the dog, and the chicken had eaten
12:28:10and drunk their fill. Wong Wong lay
12:28:12lazily under the popppler tree,
12:28:14digesting his food. The guinea foul then
12:28:16returned to their coupe to take a nap.
12:28:18Only then did Su Chongqing take out the
12:28:20five seeds he had acquired at the
12:28:22auction from his small storage bag and
12:28:24place them in front of him. three light
12:28:26green ones, a yellowish brown grain, a
12:28:28dark red one. He released the wood
12:28:30elemental power in his dantion and
12:28:33carefully sensed it. Soon the three
12:28:35light green seeds were the first to
12:28:36react. Weak spiritual energy, high
12:28:39quality seeds, minor damage. The
12:28:42yellowish brown and dark red seeds are
12:28:44slightly slower to react, but the
12:28:46situation is exactly the same. It seems
12:28:48these three are all wood type seeds.
12:28:50Let's start with them. Such Chonqing
12:28:52thoughtfully picked up one of the light
12:28:54green seeds and then summoned his
12:28:56companion green lotus. Normal
12:28:58cultivation involves a series of
12:29:00procedures. However, he has the help of
12:29:02his companion lotus. This process can be
12:29:05sped up or even eliminated. As the azure
12:29:08lotus realm expands, more and more wood
12:29:10elemental energy was injected into the
12:29:12seed. About 3 minutes later, a rustling
12:29:15sound suddenly came. It felt like some
12:29:17tiny insects were crawling on it. Such
12:29:19Chonqing looked at the light green seeds
12:29:21and sure enough they had sprouted. It is
12:29:24growing at a rate visible to the naked
12:29:26eye. Seeing this, Su Chonqing picked it
12:29:28up and went outside. Fill a bowl with
12:29:30some black soil. Then stuff the seeds
12:29:32into it and then water it with a small
12:29:34amount of spring water. Sure enough,
12:29:36with the help of black soil and spring
12:29:38water, the seed grew faster in the green
12:29:40lotus realm. Eventually, information
12:29:43about it appeared. Green gourd seeds,
12:29:45weak spiritual energy, slight damage. A
12:29:48green gourd. Such Chan took out the
12:29:51Spirit Field Chronicles. He quickly
12:29:53found it in the category of gourds. This
12:29:55thing is pretty good. It can be refined
12:29:57into storage items similar to storage
12:29:59bags. It can also add a small amount of
12:30:01wood elemental energy to the items
12:30:03stored inside. The longer it takes, such
12:30:05as over a 100 years, the more likely it
12:30:08is to be refined into a spiritual
12:30:10weapon. Chapter 87. Not only did we not
12:30:13lose money, we might even make a huge
12:30:15profit. First update. Chapter 87. Not
12:30:18only did we not lose money, but we might
12:30:20even make a huge profit. First update,
12:30:22Su Chongqing saw this and said, "In that
12:30:25case, the other two identical seeds
12:30:27should both grow into green gourds."
12:30:29According to the records in the Lingian
12:30:31Bwinlu, a single seed of a common green
12:30:33gourd can produce 8 to 35 fruits. A
12:30:36mature ordinary green gourd costs 50
12:30:39low-grade spirit stones. It currently
12:30:41has three variant types. One gourd. The
12:30:44fruit is flat and round in shape with 16
12:30:46to 33 fruits per plant. A mature gourd
12:30:49is worth 20 mid-grade spirit stones.
12:30:52These types of items generally have low
12:30:54value and not many people are willing to
12:30:55buy them. Therefore, even mutated
12:30:58spiritual plants still don't fetch a
12:31:00good price. Two, small gourd, also known
12:31:02as mini gourd. Easy to carry, each plant
12:31:05produces 20 to 66 fruits. A mature gourd
12:31:08is worth 60 mid-grade spirit stones. If
12:31:11refined into a storage item, one can be
12:31:14sold for 300 mid-grade spirit stones.
12:31:16Three, giant gourd. They are huge with
12:31:19three to eight fruits per plant. A
12:31:21mature giant gourd is worth 200
12:31:23mid-grade spirit stones. If refined into
12:31:26a storage item, it can be sold for 700
12:31:28mid-grade spirit stones. However, this
12:31:31is the known direction of mutation. The
12:31:33direction of Su Chongqing's green finger
12:31:36mutation is unpredictable. Even on the
12:31:39basis of existing mutations, further
12:31:41mutations will occur. Therefore, it is
12:31:43impossible to determine what kind of
12:31:45gourd it will eventually become. Since
12:31:47I'm just killing time anyway, I might as
12:31:49well plant one, Su Chongqing said with a
12:31:51slight smile. This thing is a bit more
12:31:53expensive than Lingi. But it's not a
12:31:55necessity, so there's no need to plant
12:31:57it on a large scale. Therefore, it's
12:31:59fine to cultivate just one plant and
12:32:01grow a few green gourds for fun. Others
12:32:03are playing with walnuts or something.
12:32:05At worst, he can just play with gourds.
12:32:07Next, Su Chongqing returned to the room
12:32:09and focused his attention on the other
12:32:11two seeds, a yellowish brown grain, a
12:32:14dark red one. These two seeds are very
12:32:16slow to react to the wood elemental
12:32:18power. This suggests that they are seeds
12:32:21of spiritual plants with different
12:32:22attributes. However, we'll only know
12:32:24what it is after we forced the seedlings
12:32:26to grow. Therefore, Su Chonqing
12:32:29continued to use the same method as
12:32:31before to ripen the gourd seeds. Place
12:32:33both seeds near the accompanying blue
12:32:35lotus. By leveraging the ripening
12:32:37capabilities of the chingan field, the
12:32:39normal cultivation process can be
12:32:41skipped. As time passed by, second by
12:32:44second, the outside temperature is
12:32:45higher than when I came back. Squeak,
12:32:48squeak. The noisy chirping of cicas
12:32:50began again. Wong Wong was lying under
12:32:52the popppler tree and had even fallen
12:32:54asleep. He was woken up by a sudden
12:32:57noise and immediately grimaced.
12:32:59Unfortunately, it couldn't climb the
12:33:01tree with its four legs, so it could
12:33:03only turn around and leave in
12:33:04frustration. Cluck! The guinea foul in
12:33:07the nest blinked as if gloating. At the
12:33:09same time, Such Chonqing inside the
12:33:11house let out a long sigh. Through his
12:33:13continuous cultivation, the spiritual
12:33:15energy within hisqi sea was largely
12:33:18depleted. The two seeds finally
12:33:20sprouted. The sprouts are not green.
12:33:22Instead, it's the same color as the
12:33:24seed, earthy yellow and dark red. Then
12:33:27the same steps as before were repeated.
12:33:29Pick up two bowls and fill them with
12:33:31some nutrient-rich black soil. Plant the
12:33:33two seeds in the spring water. This time
12:33:36it will take about 7 or 8 minutes.
12:33:38Information about the seeds has only
12:33:40just begun to emerge. Dark red seeds,
12:33:43fire vine, weak spiritual energy, slight
12:33:46damage, yellowish brown seeds, dying ko,
12:33:49weak spiritual energy, slight damage.
12:33:52Such Chanqing had some impression of the
12:33:54fiery vine. I saw it before when I was
12:33:56reading Linkion by Wlu. This thing is a
12:33:58fire attribute spiritual plant. The
12:34:01cultivation time is calculated in years.
12:34:03A mature fiery vine costs 50 low-grade
12:34:06spirit stones. When it's rare on the
12:34:08market, it can sell for 80 lowgrade
12:34:10spirit stones and it also has three
12:34:12known variants. They are one, blazing
12:34:15vine, suitable for combat. A mature
12:34:18blazing flame vine typically costs
12:34:20around 400 mg-grade spirit stones. If
12:34:23refined into a spiritual weapon, it
12:34:25would definitely sell for 800 mid-grade
12:34:27spirit stones. Two, fiery vine with
12:34:30defensive and restorative properties.
12:34:32Although it also has the fire attribute,
12:34:34it mainly enhances the defense and
12:34:36increases the recovery speed of the fire
12:34:38spirit route. Therefore, the price of a
12:34:41mature blazing spirit vine is
12:34:43approximately 500 mid-grade spirit
12:34:45stones. Note that this is before it has
12:34:47been refined into a magical artifact.
12:34:50Once forged into a spiritual weapon, it
12:34:52can fetch a price of 900 mid-grade
12:34:54spirit stones. Three, the flame dragon
12:34:57vine. A weapon combining offense and
12:34:59defense and imbued with dragon energy.
12:35:02It can be used for both offense and
12:35:03defense. Moreover, because it contains a
12:35:06trace of dragon energy, it has a
12:35:08suppressive effect on demons. Before the
12:35:10spirit weapon was even crafted, the
12:35:12prize had already reached an astonishing
12:35:141,500 mid-grade spirit stones. If it
12:35:18were to be refined into a spiritual
12:35:19weapon, the flame dragon whip. Even if
12:35:22it were of low quality, it would still
12:35:24cost 2,500 mid-grade spirit stones. H.
12:35:28Such Chonqing couldn't help but gasp. I
12:35:30acquired five unidentified seeds from
12:35:33the Donkin auction house, although three
12:35:35of them are green gourds. The price is
12:35:37slightly higher than Lingi. If a
12:35:39mutation occurs, either way would be a
12:35:41huge win. Immediately, Su Chongqing
12:35:43focused his gaze on the last sprouting
12:35:45seed. He really didn't remember the
12:35:47ground guiding grass. The content of
12:35:49Linkon by Wenlu is very rich and covers
12:35:52many types. He could never finish
12:35:54reading it all at once. He mostly just
12:35:56glanced at it occasionally. Therefore, I
12:35:58immediately flipped to the earth element
12:36:00category and began to search carefully.
12:36:02Not long after, I finally saw the words
12:36:05ground guiding grass. With a sweep of
12:36:07his spiritual sense, the contents were
12:36:09instantly imprinted in his mind. This
12:36:12stuff has a better market in the lay
12:36:13lines. It can gather trace amounts of
12:36:15earth energy. The more numerous they
12:36:17are, the stronger the earth energy they
12:36:19accumulate. For cultivators with earth
12:36:22elemental spiritual roots, it is an
12:36:24auxiliary item for cultivation. The
12:36:26value of a single earth guiding grass is
12:36:28roughly equivalent to one mid-grade
12:36:30spirit stone. The growth cycle is very
12:36:33interesting. In places with thin soil,
12:36:35it takes about a month. If it were a
12:36:37place with rich earth energy, like a
12:36:39vein of earth, they can grow quickly in
12:36:41just one day. So far, there is only one
12:36:44mutation called Earth Dragon saliva. It
12:36:47is a bait specifically designed to lure
12:36:49the monster rolling dragon. The price
12:36:51isn't high, but it's not low either. The
12:36:53market price is around 100 mid-grade
12:36:56spirit stones with occasional
12:36:58fluctuations. For example, when the
12:37:00rolling dragon appeared in the Black
12:37:01Forest outside Daing City, its price
12:37:04skyrocketed to 200 mid-grade spirit
12:37:06stones, and it was so popular that it
12:37:08was sold out as soon as it appeared.
12:37:10Such Chongqing pondered thoughtfully.
12:37:12Since it's<unk>s bait to attract the
12:37:13rolling dragons, wouldn't it be equally
12:37:16effective for the dragon fish in the
12:37:17black dragon pool if I added it to my
12:37:19brood millet wine? He had always been
12:37:22interested in the dragon fish in black
12:37:24dragon pool. It's just that I haven't
12:37:26had the chance to go fishing. If this
12:37:28earth guiding grass can be transformed
12:37:30into earth dragon saliva, you could try
12:37:32fishing for arowana there. Overall, the
12:37:35five seeds were obtained for 33
12:37:37mid-grade spirit stones. This time, not
12:37:40only did we not lose money, we might
12:37:42even make a huge profit. If any one of
12:37:44these three spiritual plants mutates, it
12:37:46can fetch a very high price. Chapter 88,
12:37:50third planting, big leaf grass

12:37:54generous gift from Vimong Drif. Chapter
12:37:5788, third planting, big leaf grass
12:37:59successful. Second update, thanks to the
12:38:01generous gift from Vimong Drif. With
12:38:04plenty of time, Su Chongqing took out a
12:38:06communication talisman from his small
12:38:08storage bag. Han Su, senior brother Sue,
12:38:11I need to loosen the soil here. When are
12:38:13you free? I have it right now. I'm
12:38:15coming right away. The conversation
12:38:17between the two ended quickly. Your task
12:38:20for today isn't finished yet. A fellow
12:38:22disciple with an earth elemental route
12:38:24couldn't help but remind him. Han Su
12:38:26shrugged nonchalantly. I know better
12:38:28than you which is more important. In his
12:38:31eyes, Su Chongqing, who could provide
12:38:33top quality spiritual rice, was more
12:38:35important than mining. After all, mining
12:38:38can be done everyday. However, not every
12:38:40spirit farmer can grow top quality
12:38:42spirit rice. During this period, thanks
12:38:44to the top grade spirit rice provided by
12:38:47Su Chongqing and his own hard work, Han
12:38:49Su has advanced from the mid-stage ofQi
12:38:51refining to the late stage ofQi
12:38:53refining. Several fellow disciples who
12:38:55were once together are still struggling
12:38:57in the middle stage. After a long while,
12:39:00Han Su appeared on the edge of the
12:39:02field. Seeing this, Su Chongqing asked,
12:39:04"Why don't you buy a means of
12:39:06transportation?" Han Su quickly replied,
12:39:08"I've used all the spirit stones to
12:39:10exchange for cultivation resources. It's
12:39:13not that I don't have money." Earth
12:39:14spirit route miners receive monthly
12:39:16rewards in spirit stones. Therefore,
12:39:19they are not actually in dire straits.
12:39:21They just appear to be struggling
12:39:22financially. Such Chonqing pondered. In
12:39:25a few days, I might change my mode of
12:39:27transportation, and I can sell you the
12:39:28flying paper cranes I've replaced at a
12:39:30lower price. Change? Han Su was
12:39:33surprised. Didn't you just buy those
12:39:35high-grade paper cranes, senior brother?
12:39:37Su Chongqing summoned the flying paper
12:39:40crane, showing it to the other party
12:39:41while explaining, "Something happened a
12:39:43while ago, which caused some damage.
12:39:45Although it can still be used normally,
12:39:47I just happened to come across a new
12:39:49means of transportation." Han Su
12:39:51examined it carefully and seeing that it
12:39:53was indeed somewhat damaged, nodded and
12:39:55asked, "How much does senior brother
12:39:57plan to sell it for? I bought it for 70.
12:40:00How about I sell it to you for 30
12:40:01low-grade spirit stones?" Such Chanqing
12:40:04replied, "Okay." Hansu readily agreed.
12:40:07Earth Elemental Disciples receive a
12:40:09speed boost when traveling on the
12:40:10ground. Therefore, he was able to travel
12:40:13back and forth between the lay lines and
12:40:15the spirit fields. It's just that it's
12:40:17not as fast as a mode of transportation.
12:40:19Of course, the deal between the two is
12:40:21not happening now. We'll have to wait
12:40:23until Su Chongqing eliminates the flying
12:40:26paper cranes before we can talk about
12:40:27it. If the processing of the large leaf
12:40:29grass fails, there's no need to sell it.
12:40:32Seeing that the other party had rested
12:40:33enough, Su Chongqing said, "Let's start
12:40:36loosening the soil." Hansu nodded
12:40:38slightly, then immediately took off his
12:40:40shoes and walked onto the ridge of the
12:40:42field. The spirit field was covered with
12:40:44a layer of ashes from the burning of
12:40:46straw. This is clearly a trace left
12:40:48after the era of slash and burn
12:40:50agriculture. Although it was the second
12:40:52time he had used it, Such Chongqing was
12:40:54very satisfied. It has indeed reduced
12:40:57the chances of pests occurring. From
12:40:59spring to summer, no pests appeared even
12:41:01once. The insecttoide array has been
12:41:03installed since then, but it has never
12:41:05been used even once. Bang, bang, bang.
12:41:08Han Su kept moving and the black soil
12:41:11turned upside down. Originally, the
12:41:13ashes left after the straw burned were
12:41:15simply covered on top. As the black soil
12:41:17is turned over, the two things gradually
12:41:19become indistinguishable. In addition,
12:41:22it is summer, so it does not cause much
12:41:24harm to the earth spirit route.
12:41:26Therefore, this soil loosening is more
12:41:28efficient than in winter. Hanu finished
12:41:30everything after only two rests. Su
12:41:33Chongqing gave the other party 100
12:41:35caddies of top grade spirit rice
12:41:36produced from a second grade spirit
12:41:38field as well as several large top grade
12:41:40watermelons and reminded him according
12:41:42to our previous agreement you can only
12:41:44get 50 caddies of top grade spirit rice
12:41:47next time if we loosen the soil again
12:41:49later there will be no payment this year
12:41:51Han Su said earnestly worry senior
12:41:54brother I haven't forgotten the two had
12:41:57made an agreement beforehand suing
12:41:59provided 250 gene of top grade spiritual
12:42:02rice produced from second grade
12:42:04spiritual fields. Han Su will loosen the
12:42:06soil for the other party free of charge
12:42:08this year and there will be no limit to
12:42:10the number of times. Such Chanqing only
12:42:12needs to give the other party another 50
12:42:14caddies of top grade spirit rice to get
12:42:17a free laborer. The two chatted for a
12:42:19while longer and then Han Su turned and
12:42:21left while eating watermelon. Such
12:42:23Chonqing was still busy and took out
12:42:25another communication talisman. Whose is
12:42:27it? Why don't you return? Such Chanqing
12:42:30wanted the other party to send over all
12:42:31the spirit beast excrement they would
12:42:33need later. In other words, not only the
12:42:36autumn animal droppings, but also those
12:42:38from winter are provided. Fortunately,
12:42:40this was very simple for Hubuay. He can
12:42:42do without a Daist partner, but when it
12:42:45comes to spirit beast excrement, it's
12:42:47absolutely plentiful and filling.
12:42:49Therefore, the next morning, all the
12:42:51needs for the next 6 months were
12:42:53delivered. This time, Su Chaning
12:42:55specifically instructed Hubui to deliver
12:42:58the processed spirit beast excrement.
12:43:00When it comes to farming, fresher isn't
12:43:02always better. Such Chanqing had seen it
12:43:04in the farming chapter of the Linkon
12:43:06Bwinlu. Fresh spirit beast droppings
12:43:09easily deplete the earth's energy and
12:43:11may even contain insect eggs. After
12:43:13processing, the risks can be reduced and
12:43:16it can become fertilizer that can
12:43:17actually be used for farming. Why did
12:43:19pests appear one after another before?
12:43:21because it uses fresh spirit beast
12:43:23excrement. To be honest, he was actually
12:43:26tricked by Hubuay wants. However, Su
12:43:29Chongqing was not angry. Let bygones be
12:43:31bygones. There's no need to dwell on it.
12:43:34After all, the two are now best friends.
12:43:36The soil loosening is now complete.
12:43:39Prepare the spirit beasts droppings.
12:43:41Such Chonqing quickly began planting the
12:43:43seedlings of the spirit rice. He has
12:43:45completely disconnected from the other
12:43:47barnards. Others have to wait for the
12:43:49sacred rice to mature before they can
12:43:50harvest it. Moreover, there are only
12:43:53four opportunities a year. However, Such
12:43:55Choning possesses the Azure Lotus
12:43:57Domain, which can accelerate the
12:43:59maturation speed of spiritual plants. As
12:44:02long as you don't waste time, there are
12:44:03five harvest opportunities a year. It
12:44:05seems like you only had one more time
12:44:07than others. In fact, this is a full
12:44:104,000 gene of top quality ling rice.
12:44:12That's equivalent to 3,076
12:44:15lowgrade spirit stones. If converted to
12:44:18mid-grade spirit stones, that's 30. Time
12:44:20flew by and it was evening. 3 days
12:44:23later, Such Chanqing was using the Azure
12:44:25Lotus Domain to accelerate the growth of
12:44:27the spiritual plants in the spiritual
12:44:29field when he suddenly received a
12:44:31communication from weapon forging peak.
12:44:34Fellow Dowist Sue, your mode of
12:44:36transportation, the large leaf grass,
12:44:38has been successfully crafted. What
12:44:40quality? Advanced. So, does that mean I
12:44:43made a profit? I guess so. Okay, I'll go
12:44:46get it right away. After you arrive at
12:44:48forging peak, please go to forging room
12:44:50A7 to collect your weapon. Such
12:44:53Chongqing sensed the spiritual energy in
12:44:55his dantion and found that there was
12:44:57only one drop left. It shouldn't be a
12:44:59problem to take the paper crane there.
12:45:01There should be no risk of it crashing.
12:45:03Then he told Wong Wong to take good care
12:45:05of the house, the spirit field, the
12:45:07spirit plants, the guinea fowl, the
12:45:09house, the food, the water. in short, to
12:45:13take care of everything before he rode
12:45:15away on the paper crane. There were no
12:45:16setbacks along the way, and we arrived
12:45:19smoothly. Unexpectedly, many formal
12:45:21disciples were still fighting on the
12:45:23arena in the evening. Moreover, it looks
12:45:25even more ferocious than it did in the
12:45:27first few days. They seemed to have
12:45:29gotten carried away while fighting.
12:45:31However, Su Chanching was not interested
12:45:33in any of these. Following the address
12:45:35and the communication symbol, he quickly
12:45:37found forge number 17. The door was
12:45:40closed and faint clanging sounds could
12:45:42be heard coming from inside. Knock-k
12:45:43knock. Su Chanqing knocked on the door.
12:45:46Is anyone home? Who? A deep voice
12:45:49quickly rang out. Such Chanqing quickly
12:45:51replied, "I've come to collect the
12:45:53refined large leaf grass. Bang! Bang!
12:45:55Bang!" A sound of the ground shaking
12:45:57approached. Then, with a creek, the
12:46:00previously closed door opened. But what
12:46:02followed was a wall of flesh appearing
12:46:04before Su Choning<unk>s eyes. He
12:46:06couldn't help but swallow. His gaze
12:46:08slowly moving upwards. Well-developed
12:46:10limbs. Muscles built up like bricks. His
12:46:13full pectoral muscles resembled a temple
12:46:15bell being struck. A neutral-looking
12:46:17face. Giant eyes like copper bells. His
12:46:20head is taller than a door. Zhuang, an
12:46:22expert level blacksmith standing over 2
12:46:24m tall, grinned, revealing gleaming
12:46:27white teeth and said, "Here comes bro."
12:46:30Chapter 89 large leaf grass for
12:46:32transportation. First and second place
12:46:35challenge to a duel. Third update.
12:46:37Chapter 89. Big leaf grass for
12:46:39transportation. One and two challenged.
12:46:41Third update. Uh Su Chongqing mumbled
12:46:44something several times but couldn't
12:46:46utter a single complete sentence. The
12:46:48scene before my eyes or rather the
12:46:51person before my eyes. It brought him a
12:46:53strong impact on multiple aspects
12:46:55including his vision, values, and
12:46:57spirit. Although I had guessed before
12:46:59that this person was not simple. But to
12:47:01my utter surprise, it turned out to be
12:47:03far more complex than I had imagined.
12:47:05Suddenly, Su Chongqing felt himself fly.
12:47:08He looked down and his pupils dilated
12:47:10violently. It turned out that both feet
12:47:12had already left the ground. Zhu Tong
12:47:15lifted a man weighing over 100 lb with
12:47:17one hand and carried him into the
12:47:19forging room without any resistance.
12:47:22Fortunately, nothing dangerous happened.
12:47:24When the two arrived at a weapon rack,
12:47:26Zhu Tong gently put Su Chongqing down,
12:47:28then took out the refined large leaf
12:47:30grass. Brother, see if the large leaf
12:47:33grass I refined for you is classy or
12:47:35not. Senior, I Su Chonqing was
12:47:38completely stunned and speechless for a
12:47:40moment. Oops. Zhu Tong waved his hand
12:47:43dismissively. You asked me to make a
12:47:45means of transportation, so you are my
12:47:47most honored guest. We are family. There
12:47:50is no need to be polite. Okay, okay,
12:47:52okay. Such Chanqing nodded vigorously.
12:47:55He then focused his gaze and attention
12:47:57on the refined large leaf grass. It has
12:47:59four huge blades, each over 2 m long and
12:48:021 m wide. There is a circular platform
12:48:05less than 2 m high at the intersection.
12:48:08In addition, each large leaf contains
12:48:10clear and simple spiritual patterns. The
12:48:13so-called spirit patterns are the
12:48:14patterns that are created during the
12:48:16forging process. As long as spiritual
12:48:18power or energy is injected, a
12:48:20transmission channel will be created. It
12:48:22can temporarily enhance multiple aspects
12:48:24of this item such as its quality,
12:48:26defense, and attack. In some ways, it's
12:48:29not much different from a magical
12:48:30artifact. However, the big leaf grass is
12:48:33just a means of transportation. It does
12:48:35not possess very high defensive
12:48:37capabilities. It also doesn't have much
12:48:39offensive power. Therefore, this refined
12:48:42large leaf grass has a certain texture.
12:48:44It's definitely a high-end product, no
12:48:46doubt about it. At this moment, Zhu Tong
12:48:49chuckled and said, "Let me introduce you
12:48:51to this big leaf grass. It has two uses.
12:48:54First, when four leaves are stacked
12:48:56together, the flight's speed doubles,
12:48:58but it is unstable. Secondly, if they
12:49:00are scattered, they can provide shelter
12:49:02from wind and rain and even offer some
12:49:04defensive capabilities." Then she
12:49:07started fiddling with it in front of Su
12:49:09Chongqing. Large leaf grass 2 m long and
12:49:121 m wide. In front of this person, I'm
12:49:15like a child's toy. It feels incredibly
12:49:17light in your hand with absolutely no
12:49:19weight. The four large leaves folded
12:49:21together leaving only one leaf. Although
12:49:24it is much thicker, it is very straight.
12:49:26Such Chanqing felt it was somewhat like
12:49:28the surfboard from his previous life. If
12:49:30it is spread out, it resembles an open
12:49:33umbrella. Of course, people are standing
12:49:35on top, not sitting on the bottom. After
12:49:37the detailed explanation, Zhuang stuffed
12:49:40the large leaf grass into Su
12:49:42Chonging<unk>s arms. All right, it's
12:49:44your turn to leave your mark. Uh, Su
12:49:46Chongqing felt a strong impact force
12:49:48that forced him to take several steps
12:49:50back. Hurry up. Zhu Tong stared intently
12:49:53with his huge bronze bell-like eyes. At
12:49:56this moment, Su Chongqing felt a heavy
12:49:58pressure, the kind only one would feel
12:50:00when facing a thousand-year-old spirit
12:50:02beast. He had no choice but to do as he
12:50:05was told, releasing his own with
12:50:07elemental power. Soon, it left its own
12:50:10unique spiritual energy imprint on the
12:50:12large leaf grass. In this way, others
12:50:15cannot drive it, let alone use it. At
12:50:17the same time, information about large
12:50:19leave grass came to mind. Largeleaf
12:50:21grass effect one, basic wind control.
12:50:24Effect two, low-level sturdiness. Effect
12:50:27three, spirit rune burst. Suddenly, a
12:50:30large palm leafike hand slapped over
12:50:33again. Brother, this is my communication
12:50:35talisman. You can message me privately
12:50:37if you need anything to refine or forge
12:50:39in the future. Uh-huh. Such Chongqing
12:50:42let out a muffled groan and staggered
12:50:44back several steps, struggling to
12:50:46breathe. The small communication
12:50:48talisman in his arms felt as heavy as a
12:50:50mountain. Then, underhangs expectant
12:50:53gaze, he put the communication talisman
12:50:55into his small storage bag. Then, the
12:50:58two of them stared at each other. You're
12:50:59not leaving. Do you want to stay for
12:51:01dinner? Tong blinked. I'm leaving now.
12:51:03Goodbye, senior. Upon hearing this, Su
12:51:06Chongqing hurriedly turned and ran.
12:51:08Bang, bang, bang. The sound of the
12:51:10ground shaking came from behind me. It
12:51:12felt as if a raging flood or ferocious
12:51:14beast was approaching. Only after
12:51:16crossing the threshold did the
12:51:18terrifying commotion cease. Such
12:51:20Chonqing glanced back and saw Zhu Tong
12:51:22standing on the other side of the
12:51:23threshold. Looking at that imposing
12:51:26figure wider than a door panel, his eyes
12:51:28twitched uncontrollably. Come visit
12:51:30again next time, little brother. Zhu
12:51:33Tong waved with a smile. This time, Su
12:51:35Chongqing ran away without looking back.
12:51:38Whoosh! Stepping out of the palace
12:51:39gates, he felt a great sense of relief.
12:51:42It was only then that he realized he was
12:51:44completely soaked. I've been cultivating
12:51:46immortality for several years, and I've
12:51:48never been this disheveled, not even in
12:51:50the summer. As a result, Zhuong
12:51:53single-handedly turned it into this
12:51:54mess. You can imagine how immense the
12:51:56pressure they were just facing. Have you
12:51:58heard? Lion has challenged Chuch Chio to
12:52:01a duel, a pre-match showdown between the
12:52:03top two teams on the leaderboard. Yes,
12:52:06tomorrow morning. Such Chan Xing heard
12:52:08it clearly when people passed by.
12:52:10Unexpectedly, Chu Chio, who ranked
12:52:12first, and Lion, who ranked second,
12:52:15challenged each other to a duel. In
12:52:17terms of skill level, the two are evenly
12:52:19matched. They all broke through to the
12:52:21foundation establishment stage. They are
12:52:23also quite good at serendipitous
12:52:25encounters and lucky breaks. Chuchio was
12:52:28recognized as a master by a
12:52:29thousand-year-old spirit beast. Blue Sky
12:52:32was recognized as a master by a growing
12:52:34spiritual artifact. If these two were to
12:52:36actually fight, it would definitely
12:52:38cause a sensation. How about I come over
12:52:40and take a look tomorrow morning? Such
12:52:42Chonqing thought to himself. Having made
12:52:44up his mind, he summoned the large leaf
12:52:46grass and infused it with his spiritual
12:52:49power. Instantly, the four huge leaves
12:52:51began to spin around. It looks quite
12:52:53similar to the fan from the previous
12:52:55life. It even produced a not so strong
12:52:57whirlwind. Then, Su Chongqing stepped
12:53:00onto the 2- m high platform in the
12:53:01middle and leaped into the air. To be
12:53:04honest, the big leaf grass really does
12:53:06contain a trace of wind spirit energy.
12:53:08It flies faster than a paper crane.
12:53:10Moreover, the whistling noise of the
12:53:12wind blowing in our ears is no longer
12:53:14heard. There is only a little noise when
12:53:17flying in the air, which is completely
12:53:18within acceptable limits. Such Chongqing
12:53:21couldn't help but say, "Although that
12:53:23Sisterho looks rough, I have to admit
12:53:26that she is indeed meticulous despite
12:53:28her roughness. At least there is no
12:53:30problem with her refining technique.
12:53:32Looking at the spiritual patterns on the
12:53:34leaves, he had an idea and poured more
12:53:36spiritual power into them. Instantly, a
12:53:39liquid that flowed like blood appeared
12:53:40within the spirit runes. The moment they
12:53:43all lit up. Whoosh! The speed is twice
12:53:45as fast as before. Of course, Such
12:53:48Chanqing only persisted for a short
12:53:50while before quickly stopping. There was
12:53:52no other way. I had already used up most
12:53:54of my spiritual energy before coming
12:53:56here. Now only a single drop remains in
12:53:59the chi sea sustaining its journey back
12:54:01and forth. While the burst of spirit
12:54:04patterns does increase speed, it also
12:54:06consumes a great deal of spiritual
12:54:08energy. With just one drop of spiritual
12:54:11energy, it should only last for about 2
12:54:13minutes. If the remaining people are
12:54:15still in the air after exhausting their
12:54:16resources, the consequences are
12:54:18predictable. Chapter 90 would
12:54:20concealment technique at max level.
12:54:23Commercial thinking fourth update.
12:54:25Chapter 90 with concealment technique
12:54:27maxed out. Commercial thinking fourth
12:54:29update. At night, the chirping of
12:54:31insects rose and fell outside the
12:54:34window. Under the white moonlight, Su
12:54:36Chongqing studied the wood concealment
12:54:38technique. This is the only advanced
12:54:40movement technique among the several
12:54:42advanced spells I've acquired that I
12:54:44haven't yet mastered. Sensing a slight
12:54:46sluggishness in his thinking, he
12:54:47immediately took out the specially
12:54:49prepared highquality yellow rice wine
12:54:51and quickly took a sip. Instantly, a
12:54:54spicy and sweet flavor lingered in my
12:54:56mouth. After sliding into the abdomen,
12:54:58it transformed into a warm current that
12:55:00flowed throughout the body. My mind
12:55:02became active again, and I reentered a
12:55:05learning state. Time passed quietly as
12:55:07the moon hung directly above the cabin.
12:55:10Such Chonqing suddenly had a thought and
12:55:12subconsciously looked at the attribute
12:55:13panel. The first layer of wood storage
12:55:15technique. Effect one, movement speed
12:55:18increased by 6%. Effect two, reaction
12:55:21speed increased by 6%. Special effect
12:55:24one reduces presence by 10% in areas
12:55:27with plants. Such Chan was surprised.
12:55:30Special effects on just one layer. This
12:55:33would concealment technique truly lives
12:55:35up to its reputation as a highle
12:55:37movement technique. There are three
12:55:38effects on the first layer. If you reach
12:55:41the top level, that would be incredible.
12:55:43Would you like to consume 13,267
12:55:46days of your lifespan to repair the
12:55:48incomplete? Wood concealment technique.
12:55:5036 years. Su Chongqing could accept it.
12:55:53So he readily agreed. In an instant, the
12:55:56information about the wood concealment
12:55:58technique became much richer. Su
12:56:00Chongqing utilizes his current
12:56:02knowledge, experience, and skills. It
12:56:04took 36 years to repair and complete
12:56:07this incomplete work. The first layer of
12:56:09wood storage technique. Effect one,
12:56:11movement speed increased by 10%. Effect
12:56:14two, response speed increased by 10%.
12:56:17Special effect one. In areas with
12:56:19plants, your presence is reduced by 10%.
12:56:22And even the slightest footsteps will be
12:56:24masked by the plants. Sure enough, once
12:56:27the fragment was repaired and completed,
12:56:29the effect was completely different.
12:56:31Compared to before, both the normal and
12:56:33special effects have been improved.
12:56:35Would you like to consume 1,389
12:56:38days of your lifespan to upgrade the
12:56:40wood concealment technique to level two?
12:56:43Yes. Having already spent over 10,000
12:56:45days, Su Chonqing certainly wouldn't be
12:56:48stingy with this amount. Because it had
12:56:50already been patched once, the
12:56:51improvement was very rapid. In a mere
12:56:54moment of distraction, everything was
12:56:55settled. The second level of wood
12:56:57storage technique. Effect one, movement
12:57:00speed increased by 20%. Effect two,
12:57:03response speed increased by 20%. Special
12:57:06effect one. In areas with plants, your
12:57:08presence is reduced by 20% and when
12:57:11stationary, you are indistinguishable
12:57:13from the plants. Not bad. Such Chonqing
12:57:16was quite satisfied with the result.
12:57:18There was neither unexpected joy nor
12:57:20particular disappointment. The
12:57:21improvement of one's own cultivation
12:57:23methods and spells is different from the
12:57:25leap in realm. Therefore, there will be
12:57:28no particularly significant changes. At
12:57:30most, it will only be an enhancement on
12:57:32the existing basis. Such Chanqing then
12:57:35went allin upgrading the wood
12:57:36concealment technique to the top level.
12:57:39Successfully consumed 10,629
12:57:42days of lifespan to upgrade the wood
12:57:44concealment technique to level six.
12:57:47Remaining lifespan 118,976
12:57:51days. The six layers of wood storage
12:57:53technique. Effect one, movement speed
12:57:55increased by 60%. Effect two, reaction
12:57:59speed increased by 60%. Effect three
12:58:02increases dodge speed by 50%. Special
12:58:05effect one. In areas with plants, its
12:58:07presence is minimized, becoming
12:58:09completely silent, and can only be
12:58:11detected by extremely powerful
12:58:13perception abilities such as spiritual
12:58:15sense or divine sense. Special effect
12:58:18two. Hiding near living plants makes no
12:58:20difference, minimizing the chance of
12:58:22being discovered. Hiding near dead
12:58:24plants increases the chance of being
12:58:26discovered. Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit
12:58:28up and he immediately got out of bed,
12:58:30opened the door and went outside. Wong
12:58:33Wong always stays up all night, although
12:58:35he sometimes slacks off. Fortunately,
12:58:37this time, or rather tonight, I was very
12:58:40beautiful. Upon seeing this, Su
12:58:42Chongqing swayed and darted into the
12:58:44darkness like a ghost, disappearing
12:58:46behind a popppler tree in no time. Woof!
12:58:48Woof! Suddenly, the master's voice
12:58:51called out. Upon hearing this, Wong
12:58:53Wong, who was lying near the doghouse,
12:58:55immediately raised its head and
12:58:57pricricked up its ears. Woof woof. Soon,
12:59:00a second call rang out. Upon hearing its
12:59:02owner calling it, Wong Wong searched
12:59:04around in confusion. Strangely, the
12:59:06sound was clearly nearby. They just
12:59:08can't be found, as if they've
12:59:10disappeared. This worried Wong Wong
12:59:12greatly, as it thought its owner was in
12:59:14danger, and it searched everywhere for
12:59:16him. Spiritual fields, field ridges, and
12:59:19even rocky hills. Explore every corner
12:59:21you've ever been to. Exhausted and
12:59:23panting heavily, his tongue lulled out
12:59:25of his mouth. Even so, it did not give
12:59:28up and continued its search. After
12:59:30persistent efforts, the dog finally
12:59:32arrived near the popular tree. Woof!
12:59:34Woof! Such Chongqing continued calling
12:59:36from behind the tree. "Stop!" The dog
12:59:39kept circling around but couldn't find
12:59:41it. It was driving me crazy. His eyes
12:59:43were filled with anxiety, unease,
12:59:45impatience, and even fear. Seeing that
12:59:48they were so close, Su Chanqing simply
12:59:50stopped calling out. After all, spirit
12:59:53beasts must be exceptionally good at
12:59:55sight, hearing, and even smell. One lap,
12:59:58two laps. After countless laps, Wong
13:00:01Wong still hadn't found her and turned
13:00:02away in disappointment. They started
13:00:04searching in the fields and even went
13:00:06inside houses to check. No matter how
13:00:09hard they tried, they still didn't gain
13:00:11anything. It was as if Su Chongqing had
13:00:13completely disappeared from this world.
13:00:15Sound, breath, taste, even presence all
13:00:18vanished without a trace. The night
13:00:21combined with the plants makes me feel
13:00:23like a ghost, completely invisible, Su
13:00:26Chongqing exclaimed excitedly, watching
13:00:28Wong Wong run around aimlessly like a
13:00:30headless fly. He walked out from behind
13:00:32the popular tree with a grin. Um, upon
13:00:35smelling its owner's sin again, Wong
13:00:37Wongs eyes lit up. With a quick thought,
13:00:39he locked onto his target. Even though
13:00:41its body was extremely tired and its
13:00:43four legs were weak from prolonged
13:00:45exercise, it still rushed towards its
13:00:47owner without hesitation. His eyes went
13:00:50from anxiety, unease, impatience, and
13:00:53fear to finally only showing happiness.
13:00:56Silly dog. Su Chonqing squatted down,
13:00:58moved, and rubbed the dog's head
13:01:00angrily. Wong Wong made a co-etish
13:01:03sound. It was as if it were saying,
13:01:05"Master, I was so worried about you." It
13:01:08even clung tightly to Sue Chongqing with
13:01:10its two front paws, as if afraid of
13:01:12disappearing again. Pets may just be a
13:01:15part of their owner's lives. But for
13:01:16pets, their owners are their whole life.
13:01:19The next day, Su Chongqing had just
13:01:21finished his morning routine. The
13:01:23communication talisman vibrated from the
13:01:25small storage bag. Old who? Old Sue. You
13:01:29know about the challenge between the top
13:01:30two on the leaderboard, right? Of
13:01:32course, I know. Then why don't you hurry
13:01:34up and head out? Let's go to the scene
13:01:36together. No rush. I will definitely go.
13:01:39But I need to make some preparations.
13:01:41Prepare. What? Do you want to go up into
13:01:43the ring and fight too? Think about it
13:01:45carefully. If the top two on the
13:01:46leaderboard fight, there will definitely
13:01:48be a lot of people there. I happen to
13:01:50have a large quantity of top quality
13:01:52watermelons, top quality sweet potatoes,
13:01:54and premium Lingi wine here. This is our
13:01:57chance to make a fortune. Wow, Laos Su,
13:01:59you're so smart. I could sell barbecue
13:02:01or something. You'd better call Laiao
13:02:03along, too. Why? He can show my
13:02:06watermelon and ling me wine. Hubuay
13:02:08excitedly cut off the communication. Su
13:02:11Chongqing<unk>s lips curled up slightly,
13:02:13revealing a rather smug smile. While
13:02:15everyone else was focused on the battle
13:02:17between the top two on the leaderboard,
13:02:19he was more concerned with how to get
13:02:20his hands on spirit stones from the
13:02:22storage bags of these viewers. Chapter
13:02:2491, the 3's cooperation, a fantasy style
13:02:27barbecue. 1-3. Chapter 91, the
13:02:30cooperation of the three. The Shinsha
13:02:32version of barbecue 1-/3. Su Choning
13:02:35quickly got together with Hubu. Xiao
13:02:37Xiua is still on his way. Although this
13:02:39guy isn't at Yushua Pavilion, he's
13:02:42always looking for fishing spots, so
13:02:43he's far away. Hubuay was quite worried.
13:02:46Old Sue, we're not the only ones who
13:02:48discovered this kind of business
13:02:50opportunity. Are we? Su Chongqing waved
13:02:52his hand dismissively. Don't worry, we
13:02:55have the advantage. Advantages? Hubuay
13:02:58was taken aback. Such Chonqing pulled
13:03:00out a top quality watermelon and said,
13:03:03"I'm not just bragging, but with this
13:03:05appearance and quality, even if the
13:03:06price is a bit higher, there will be a
13:03:08lot of people buying it. It's not that
13:03:10others can't cultivate top quality
13:03:12fruits and vegetables. There are
13:03:14definitely such people without a doubt.
13:03:16A spirit farmer who can cultivate top
13:03:18quality fruits and vegetables and even
13:03:20top quality spiritual plants. Why would
13:03:22I join in such a commotion just for a
13:03:24few low-grade spirit stones?" Hubuay
13:03:27wasn't stupid. In fact, he had a
13:03:29business mind. Therefore, he pondered,
13:03:31"You're right. We could even
13:03:33artificially inflate the price of a
13:03:35single item. But if there are multiple
13:03:36portions, or if I combine my spirit
13:03:39beast meat with your premium fruits and
13:03:41spirit rice wine into a set meal, as
13:03:43long as the average price is a little
13:03:45lower, even more people will buy it." Su
13:03:47Chongqing exclaimed in surprise.
13:03:49"You're<unk> quite something, kid." Hu
13:03:51Buguay grew more and more excited as he
13:03:53thought about it and couldn't help but
13:03:55rub his hands together in urge, "Then
13:03:57what are we waiting for? Let's hurry up
13:03:59and grab a spot." Su Chongqing shook his
13:04:01head and said, "What's the rush? I'll
13:04:03get you some more barbecue seasoning."
13:04:05Simple grilled meat. In other words,
13:04:08high emotional intelligence translates
13:04:10to better health. A low emotional
13:04:12intelligence trait is described as
13:04:14lacking flavor. Barbecue seasoning.
13:04:16Hubui blinked, looking quite curious. Su
13:04:19Chongqing strives to recreate the flavor
13:04:21of barbecue seasoning. Unfortunately,
13:04:24this is the Donging immortal sect, not
13:04:26the mortal world. It was not the
13:04:28previous life either. Therefore, the
13:04:30accuracy is only about 50%. The main
13:04:33ingredients are chili peppers, salt,
13:04:35garlic, and sesame oil. Try it. Such
13:04:38Chanin prepared a little and handed it
13:04:40over. Hubuay tried licking it, then
13:04:42smacked his lips. It's a little salty
13:04:45and a little spicy, but it feels so
13:04:47good. Su Chongqing nodded and said, "It
13:04:50should be both salty and spicy.
13:04:52Otherwise, who would buy my chilled
13:04:53watermelon and chilled spirit rice wine?
13:04:55Unfortunately, it's just a basic
13:04:57seasoning. It would be even better if it
13:04:59contains spices, flavor enhancers,
13:05:01thickeners, stabilizers, and the like.
13:05:04If we add an extra spicy or devilishly
13:05:06spicy one, the scene would be
13:05:08spectacular. Why haven't you set off
13:05:10yet?" At this moment, Ziao Xuf finally
13:05:13arrived. But suddenly, he smelled a
13:05:15peculiar odor. It has a very rich aroma.
13:05:18It's somewhat similar to everyday food,
13:05:20but with a more pungent aroma. Hubuay
13:05:23chuckled. Xiao, why don't you try this
13:05:25piece of grilled meat coated with
13:05:26barbecue seasoning? Barbecued meat
13:05:28coated with barbecue seasoning. Ziaoi
13:05:31took the meat with some skepticism.
13:05:33Large chunks of spirit beast meat were
13:05:35skewered on a long wooden branch. The
13:05:37grilled meat on top was dripping with
13:05:39fat. A faint sizzling sound could be
13:05:41heard. The surface is coated with a
13:05:43layer of red oil. A few chili seeds are
13:05:45sprinkled on top. It has an enticing
13:05:47fragrance. Ziao Xiua couldn't help but
13:05:50swallow before even taking a bite. After
13:05:52cultivating immortality, one basically
13:05:55only eats spirit rice and vegetables
13:05:57containing spiritual energy. But this
13:05:59time, he couldn't resist taking a bite
13:06:01of the barbecue. The slightly hot
13:06:03roasted spirit beast meat exploded in my
13:06:05mouth as I put it in. The fatty meat was
13:06:07springy and glistening with oil. The
13:06:10lean meat is firm and not dry at all.
13:06:12Plus this amazing barbecue seasoning.
13:06:14One bite and I was instantly intoxicated
13:06:17by the aroma. I devoured it all in no
13:06:19time. Give me some more. Ziao Xu<unk>s
13:06:21eyes widened. Such Chongqing and Hubu
13:06:24exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.
13:06:27Then the three prepared tables, chairs,
13:06:29buckets, fire stands, and the like. With
13:06:32everything settled, Su Chongqing
13:06:34summoned his large leafed grass. Hubui
13:06:37was astonished. Hey, Laaua Su, you've
13:06:39actually changed your mode of
13:06:40transportation. Xiao Xiua, standing
13:06:43nearby, looked him up and down, then
13:06:45said with considerable envy, big leaf
13:06:48grass is much more advanced than flying
13:06:50paper cranes. Su Chongqing didn't
13:06:52explain, but jumped onto the platform
13:06:54first and waved to them. Let's go.
13:06:57Immediately, the three of them rode on
13:06:58the large leaf grass and flew towards
13:07:01Forging Peak. This time, the journey was
13:07:03very fast, and we arrived in no time.
13:07:06Although it wasn't their first time
13:07:07here, the three of them seemed
13:07:09particularly excited this time. It's not
13:07:11just because of the duel between Chu
13:07:13Chio, the top ranked player, and Lion,
13:07:15the second ranked player. Furthermore,
13:07:17since this is their first collaboration,
13:07:19they are both very much looking forward
13:07:21to it. Chu Chio has arrived, why hasn't
13:07:24Lion come yet? The second ranked person
13:07:26is much more arrogant than the first
13:07:28ranked person. There are so many people
13:07:30today. When Su Chongqing and his two
13:07:33companions arrived, the entire square
13:07:35was already teameing with people. And
13:07:37just as they had predicted, things
13:07:39turned out exactly as they had expected.
13:07:41People have already set up stalls here.
13:07:43The items they sell are all pretty much
13:07:45the same. They were mostly fruits,
13:07:47vegetables, and snacks. Some people even
13:07:49gambled on spirit stones, and spirit
13:07:51rice in private. This time, Chu Chio and
13:07:54Lion challenged each other to a duel on
13:07:56arena number one. That area was already
13:07:59overcrowded. It was impossible to
13:08:01squeeze in. Even in the air, there were
13:08:03many flying paper cranes and shuttles
13:08:05floating around. On arena number one,
13:08:07Chuchio was sitting cross-legged with
13:08:09his eyes closed. It's unclear whether he
13:08:11was practicing cultivation. Still
13:08:13killing time. Speaking of which, the
13:08:15thousand-year-old spirit beast Hi, was
13:08:18nowhere to be seen. I can't squeeze in,
13:08:20Hubu said anxiously. Ziao Zua gritted
13:08:23his teeth and said, "If all else fails,
13:08:26let's just charge in all at once." Su
13:08:28Chongqing rolled his eyes upon hearing
13:08:30this. If you're not afraid of getting
13:08:32beaten up, then go ahead. What day is it
13:08:34today? The day of the showdown between
13:08:36the number one and number two on the
13:08:38leaderboard. The people who came to
13:08:40watch were all formal disciples, and
13:08:42their cultivation levels were not low.
13:08:44They might even have a core disciple
13:08:45show up, so they're definitely not to be
13:08:47trifled with. Uh, never mind then. Hubui
13:08:50shrank back. What should we do then?
13:08:52Ziao Xiufa frowned. Su Chongqing pointed
13:08:55to the open space in front and said,
13:08:57"This is the only way for spectators to
13:08:59pass by. Almost everyone who comes here
13:09:02will pass by here. Let's set up our
13:09:03stall there." Once the spirit beast meat
13:09:06is roasted, apply the basic barbecue
13:09:08seasoning. Then Shiae will scratch it
13:09:10up. Who knows, the people inside might
13:09:12even come out and spend money on their
13:09:14own. The three of them quickly chose
13:09:16their spots. A one-stop shop for grilled
13:09:18meat, Lingi wine, and fruit. Su
13:09:21Chongqing sells miraculous spirit rice
13:09:23wine. Ziao Xiwa sells chilled top
13:09:26quality watermelons. Hubuay has to work
13:09:28hard, constantly grilling spirit beast
13:09:30meat and applying barbecue seasoning.
13:09:33Soon the trio attracted a lot of
13:09:35attention. Anyone who comes up to
13:09:37forging Peak will subconsciously take a
13:09:39look. What the hell? Why is there
13:09:41barbecue here? These three guys are
13:09:43really something. At first, everyone was
13:09:46quite disdainful of Su Chongqing and his
13:09:48two companions. Many people even looked
13:09:50at him with disdain. After all, this is
13:09:52the Donging immortal sect, and everyone
13:09:55here is a cultivator. Everyone who came
13:09:57to watch this challenge was a formal
13:09:59disciple. The food we usually eat is
13:10:01mostly spirit rice and vegetables that
13:10:03contains spiritual energy. Of course,
13:10:06some people also like to eat the meat of
13:10:08spirit beasts that contains spiritual
13:10:09energy. Different people have different
13:10:11preferences. It is possible for such
13:10:13stalls to appear in this kind of
13:10:15setting. This truly surprised many
13:10:17people. They can't even understand it.
13:10:19However, when the spirit beast meat is
13:10:21cooked. When Hubu applied the basic
13:10:24barbecue seasoning, the rich aroma
13:10:26immediately spread. People who were
13:10:28originally uninterested in these things
13:10:30or even extremely disdainful couldn't
13:10:32help but swallow hard. Chapter 92. Choo
13:10:35chio. Ice wine awaits the blue sky. 2/3.
13:10:39Chapter 92. Chu Chio Bingo waits for the
13:10:41blue sky. 2/3. Fellow daist. How many
13:10:45spirit stones does your watermelon cost
13:10:47per pound? Two low-grade spirit stones
13:10:49per pound. Holy crap. Is this melon
13:10:51flesh made of spirit stones or melon
13:10:53seeds made of spirit rice? Look at this.
13:10:56It's a top quality watermelon. Where
13:10:58else can you find one like it? Can you
13:11:00guarantee this melon is ripe? Hilarious.
13:11:02Would I sell you a raw egg? The
13:11:04conversation between Xiao Zua on the
13:11:06left and the male Daist opposite him
13:11:09gave Su Chongqing a sense of deja vu. He
13:11:12couldn't help but ask if the other
13:11:13person's surname was Lu. "How did you
13:11:15know?" Lu Chong asked, surprised,
13:11:18looking at the unfamiliar face opposite
13:11:20him. Su Chongqing was taken aback for a
13:11:22moment, then reminded Zhiao Xiua. Be
13:11:25careful with the fruit knife. Ziao Xiwa
13:11:27looked puzzled upon hearing this,
13:11:29clearly not understanding what he meant.
13:11:31However, at this moment, Su
13:11:33Chanching<unk>s attention had already
13:11:34shifted to the other side. The aroma of
13:11:36the roasted meat grew stronger and
13:11:38stronger. More and more people are
13:11:40becoming interested. A poorly mailed
13:11:42dowist stepped forward and asked, "How
13:11:44much is one skewer of this grilled
13:11:46meat?" Hubuay replied, "A string of
13:11:49three low-grade spirit stones. So
13:11:51expensive." The portly male dowist
13:11:53stared wideeyed upon hearing this.
13:11:55Hubuay chuckled. We have limited time
13:11:58packages with even better prices. The
13:12:00word discount made the portly male
13:12:02daists eyes light up. How much discount?
13:12:05Hubuay grinned and introduced. Now, if
13:12:08you purchase the limited time package
13:12:10one, you can get a skewer of grilled
13:12:12meat and a cup of top grade spirit rice
13:12:14wine for only five low-grade spirit
13:12:16stones. Upon hearing this, the other
13:12:18party couldn't help but ponder it. One
13:12:21skewer of grilled meat costs three
13:12:22lowgrade spirit stones. A cup of top
13:12:25grade spirit rice wine costs four
13:12:27low-grade spirit stones. If you buy them
13:12:29separately, they will cost seven
13:12:31low-grade spirit stones in total.
13:12:33Therefore, no matter how you calculate
13:12:35it, the package deal is more
13:12:36cost-effective. Su Chongqing thought to
13:12:39himself, "It's a waste of this guy's
13:12:41talent to let him cultivate immortality.
13:12:43The price and package were indeed the
13:12:45result of their joint discussion. One
13:12:47skewer of grilled meat costs three
13:12:49low-grade spirit stones. A pound of
13:12:51chilled watermelon costs two lowgrade
13:12:53spirit stones. A cup of top grade spirit
13:12:56rice wine costs four low-grade spirit
13:12:58stones. Package one, one skewer of
13:13:01grilled meat plus one cup of premium
13:13:03spirit rice. Wine equals five low-grade
13:13:05spirit stones. Package two, one skewer
13:13:08of grilled meat plus one pound of
13:13:10chilled premium watermelon equals four
13:13:12lowgrade spirit stones. Package three, a
13:13:15skewer of grilled meat plus a cup of
13:13:17premium spirit rice, wine plus a pound
13:13:20of chilled watermelon equals seven
13:13:21low-grade spirit stones. But the rest of
13:13:24the rhetoric was entirely Hubuay's own
13:13:26interpretation. Neither he nor Xiao Xiua
13:13:29ever taught it. This guy is definitely
13:13:31born to be a businessman. After Hubuay
13:13:34finished introducing all the limited
13:13:36time packages, the portly male Daist
13:13:38immediately said, "Give me set meal
13:13:40three." "All right, brothers, let's get
13:13:43started." Hubuay called out. Su Chonqing
13:13:46immediately poured a cup of top grade
13:13:47spirit rice wine. Xiaozi then cut out a
13:13:50pound of chilled watermelon. Once the
13:13:52two items were gathered, Hubu handed
13:13:54over a steaming, fragrant skewer of
13:13:56grilled meat to the other person.
13:13:58Delicious, delicious. The male fellow
13:14:01Daist opposite him was eating with his
13:14:03mouth full of oil. Were finally open for
13:14:05business. The eyes of Su Chongqing and
13:14:08the other two were a little moist. If
13:14:10there is one, then there will naturally
13:14:11be two. Before long, their stall was
13:14:14surrounded by people. This even includes
13:14:16peers. Some people were only interested
13:14:18in the barbecue, but when they saw that
13:14:20it cost three low-grade spirit stones,
13:14:22they hesitated. But seeing such a great
13:14:24deal on the package, they immediately
13:14:26made their choice. Therefore, most
13:14:29buyers choose the full package.
13:14:30Currently, the most popular option is
13:14:32package one. One skewer of grilled meat
13:14:35plus one cup of premium spirit rice.
13:14:37Wine equals five low-grade spirit
13:14:39stones. The grilled meat was delicious.
13:14:42Lingi wine has a richer flavor. Although
13:14:44some people buy watermelons, many
13:14:46believe they are not cost-effective. As
13:14:48time went on, more and more people
13:14:50bought them. Some clever people have
13:14:52even invented errand running services.
13:14:54By barbecue for the people crammed into
13:14:56arena number one, one low-grade spirit
13:14:58stone can be used for transportation
13:15:00once. Furthermore, since the second
13:15:02ranked player, Lion has not yet
13:15:05appeared, the arena challenge has not
13:15:07yet begun. As a result, Su Chongqing and
13:15:10other stalls became increasingly lively.
13:15:12a large group of cultivators, regardless
13:15:14of gender or age. They all held a cup of
13:15:17premium spirit rice wine in their left
13:15:19hands. In his right hand was a skewer of
13:15:21sizzling, oily, roasted spirit beast
13:15:24meat. Occasionally, someone would hold a
13:15:26piece of bright red watermelon and
13:15:28nibble on it. It tastes really good.
13:15:30Although it's a mundane thing, it's nice
13:15:32to eat it once in a while. The roasted
13:15:35meat, spirit rice wine, and watermelon
13:15:37are all imbued with rich spiritual
13:15:39energy. Buying them is definitely
13:15:41worthwhile. Everyone ate, drank, and
13:15:44waited. Just then, Chuchio stood up on
13:15:47stage number one. In an instant,
13:15:49everyone's attention and gaze were fixed
13:15:51on him. At first, I thought the blue sky
13:15:53had arrived. It turned out that this was
13:15:55not the case. Then, Chuchio in arena
13:15:58number one leaped over everyone's heads
13:16:00and landed in front of Su Chongqing and
13:16:02his two companions stall. He looked at
13:16:04the other person's cold face and
13:16:06exceptionally sharp eyes. Su Chongqing,
13:16:08Hubui, and Xiao Ziwa all felt a sudden
13:16:11tightness in their chests, sensing a
13:16:13crisis. The reason so many formal
13:16:16disciples gathered here was originally
13:16:17because of Chu Chio and Lion. But
13:16:20unexpectedly, Su Chongqing and his two
13:16:22companions stole all the limelight.
13:16:25Senior brother Chu, who Buguay<unk>s
13:16:27expression changed drastically in an
13:16:29instant. Chuchio spoke in a low voice.
13:16:31You sorry, we<unk>ll leave now. Such
13:16:34Chongqing didn't want to provoke this
13:16:36person. Chuch Chio waved his hand. No,
13:16:38I'm a little thirsty. I'll have a glass
13:16:40of chilled spirit rice wine. Everyone
13:16:43was stunned by these words. Su Chongqing
13:16:45and the other two in particular all
13:16:48stared wideeyed. I thought something
13:16:50terrible was going to happen, but it
13:16:51turned out they were just thirsty.
13:16:53Senior brother Chu, this cup of spirit
13:16:55rice wine is on me. Su Chonqing reacted
13:16:58quickly, immediately pouring the other
13:17:00party a cup of spirit rice wine, which
13:17:02was even chilled. Thank you. Chuchio
13:17:05took it and it felt icy cold to the
13:17:07touch. What he cared about, or rather
13:17:09was interested in, was the rich
13:17:11spiritual energy contained within.
13:17:13Throughout the entire Tanyan realm,
13:17:15spirit rice wine is the most common type
13:17:17of alcoholic beverage. But such a
13:17:20concentration of spiritual energy is
13:17:22absolutely unprecedented in my life.
13:17:24Then Chuchio took a small sip. It has a
13:17:27smooth texture, is not strong, and is
13:17:29slightly sweet. After swallowing it, I
13:17:32felt the spiritual energy in my body,
13:17:34jumping with joy. Without hesitation, he
13:17:37drank it all in front of everyone. He
13:17:39then stood there lost in his own world.
13:17:41The three people opposite exchanged
13:17:43glances upon seeing this, and all of
13:17:45them were relieved. Hubay in particular
13:17:48let out a long sigh of relief. After
13:17:50all, he and Chuchio were both disciples
13:17:53of the spirit beast valley. Su Chonqing
13:17:55asked, "What does senior brother Chu
13:17:57think?" Upon hearing this, Chuchio<unk>s
13:18:00perpetually icy face revealed a faint
13:18:02smile. Good wine. Hubi, standing nearby,
13:18:05couldn't help but boast. Of course, this
13:18:08wine is made from top grade spirit rice.
13:18:10Chuchio<unk>s eyes lit up, and she
13:18:12stared intently at Su Chongqing, asking
13:18:15with great curiosity, "Did you brew this
13:18:17spirit rice wine?" "Yes." Such Chonqing
13:18:20nodded in agreement. His style is
13:18:22characterized by being discreet and
13:18:24low-key, but not everything. If there's
13:18:26an opportunity to curry favor with
13:18:28someone powerful, of course, you can't
13:18:30miss it. Although Chuchio is not as good
13:18:32as Lee Lingbi, he is currently the
13:18:34number one formal disciple. Chuchio
13:18:36nodded slightly and said, "I am Chuch
13:18:39Chio from the Spirit Beast Valley, and
13:18:41you are a junior brother." Such Chonqing
13:18:43quickly introduced himself. Link Su
13:18:46Chonqing. Very good. I'll remember you.
13:18:48Chuch Chio had just finished speaking
13:18:50when he suddenly looked to the other
13:18:52side. Then the sound of rushing water
13:18:54began. A cruise ship, its surface
13:18:57shimmering on the blue water, sailed
13:18:59towards us. Chuchio, I'm late. Lion's
13:19:02voice suddenly rang out. No, you've come
13:19:04at just the right time. Chuchio put down
13:19:06his wine glass, his body swayed, and he
13:19:09leaped into the air, flying towards
13:19:11arena number one. The blue sky is
13:19:13finally here. The people around seemed
13:19:15to be ignited and became excited. At
13:19:18this moment, Su Chan took out a pen and
13:19:20paper and wrote down a line of words.
13:19:23After finishing writing, I quietly
13:19:25placed it in the most prominent position
13:19:26on the stall. What content? Even Chu
13:19:29Chio praised the spirit rice wine
13:19:31highly. Chapter 93. The core members
13:19:33come to watch water and would cultivate
13:19:36together. 3/3. Chapter 93. The core
13:19:39members come to watch water and wood are
13:19:41cultivated together. 3/3 arena number
13:19:44one. Chuchio is on the left. The right
13:19:47side is a blue sky. The two stood facing
13:19:49each other, their eyes meeting in
13:19:51midair. They both sense the others
13:19:53intense fighting spirit. Chuchio is the
13:19:55number one formal disciple of Spirit
13:19:57Beast Valley. First place in the
13:19:59pre-match standings. At less than 30
13:20:02years old, he had already reached the
13:20:04mid-stage of foundation establishment.
13:20:06It has two spiritual roots, water and
13:20:08wood, and they are mutually reinforcing.
13:20:11Most importantly, he was recognized as a
13:20:13master by a thousand-year-old spirit
13:20:15beast called Crane 7. The opponent on
13:20:17the other side is equally formidable.
13:20:20Lion is the first formal disciple of
13:20:22Yusu. Once ranked first in the pre-match
13:20:25standings, now ranked second. Both are
13:20:27under 30 years old and have already
13:20:29reached the early stage of foundation
13:20:31establishment. Only the water elemental
13:20:33route was awakened. With strong aptitude
13:20:36and high comprehension, one can still be
13:20:38powerful even with only one spiritual
13:20:40route. Furthermore, he possesses a
13:20:43growing spiritual weapon called the
13:20:44autumn water sword. It is said that this
13:20:47magical artifact will evolve into a
13:20:49magic weapon which makes many people
13:20:51wary of it. The challenge between the
13:20:53two, while not causing a huge uproar,
13:20:55certainly attracted a lot of onlookers.
13:20:57After all, everyone wants to see what
13:20:59tricks this genius level cultivator has
13:21:01up his sleeve. Learning some techniques
13:21:03from their fight would be of great help.
13:21:05Chu Chio will never lose. After all, he
13:21:08has a thousand-year-old spirit beast.
13:21:11Indeed, how can Blue Sky possibly win?
13:21:14That's not necessarily true. That autumn
13:21:16water sword is extremely terrifying. The
13:21:19people below eagerly discussed and
13:21:21analyzed the situation. This also
13:21:23affected the stalls of Su Chongqing and
13:21:25his two companions. The number of
13:21:27customers buying things has decreased
13:21:29significantly. Hub Buguay craned his
13:21:31neck gazing curiously into the distance
13:21:34and couldn't help but ask, "Old Xiao,
13:21:36you're also a formal disciple of the
13:21:38Imperial Water Pavilion. Who do you
13:21:40think will win?" Upon hearing this, Ziao
13:21:42Xiaua pondered, "I don't know Chu Chio,
13:21:45but Lon Tan is gentle on the surface,
13:21:47but he is extremely arrogant in his
13:21:49heart. Since he dares to challenge me,
13:21:52he must have some confidence." Hubui
13:21:54then asked, "What do you think, Laosu?"
13:21:56Ziao Xiwa also showed a curious look. Su
13:21:59Chongqing spread his hands and said
13:22:01helplessly, "I am just aqi refining
13:22:04stage spiritual farmer, and you want me
13:22:06to analyze two foundation establishment
13:22:08stage genius cultivators? Are you crazy?
13:22:11He himself lacked combat experience.
13:22:13Moreover, neither Chu Chio nor Lion had
13:22:16ever met before. I learned almost all of
13:22:19their methods and trump cards from other
13:22:20people. Therefore, how can it be
13:22:22possible to analyze who is more powerful
13:22:24and who will win? That's true. Hu Buguay
13:22:27and Xiao Xua nodded in agreement. But I
13:22:29don't know why. They would always
13:22:31subconsciously seek Su Chong<unk>ing
13:22:33opinion. It seems that he is the most
13:22:35capable of the three. Then Su Chongqing
13:22:37said, "Seriously, we'll know who's
13:22:39stronger after the fight." The only
13:22:41thing that puzzled him, "Why didn't that
13:22:43thousand-year-old spirit beast Crane 7
13:22:45appear?" Suddenly, the entire square
13:22:48became oppressive. Whether it's the
13:22:50people in the ring or the spectators,
13:22:52they all looked up at the sky without
13:22:54prior arrangement. Suddenly, a huge
13:22:56black cruise ship flew in and floated
13:22:58directly above them. A golden banner
13:23:00fluttered in the wind, embroidered with
13:23:02the black and gold character Cho Chio,
13:23:05shaped like a dragon or snake. The Chio
13:23:08family, Su Chongqing, and the other two
13:23:10quickly exchanged glances. The incident
13:23:13with Chioong hasn't been long ago, and
13:23:15everyone will remember it. But it's not
13:23:17over yet. Soon, another large green leaf
13:23:20flew in from the other side. It is
13:23:22permeated with a rich wood elemental
13:23:24power, as if it is urging all things to
13:23:26grow. Not only that, several more flying
13:23:29devices have appeared one after another.
13:23:31A black leopard with a lightning bolt
13:23:33mark on its forehead and a pair of
13:23:34fleshy wings on its back. His entire
13:23:37body exuded a terrifying aura. On its
13:23:39back set a burly man with a face full of
13:23:42scars. There is also a seven-story
13:23:44crystal tower with various fresh fruits
13:23:46and vegetables displayed on each floor.
13:23:48They are oranges, pears, grapes, lotus
13:23:52roots, kiwis, pimmens, and mangoes.
13:23:55Dreamlike streaks of seven colored
13:23:57clouds cascaded down from the four
13:23:59corners of the crystal tower. You can
13:24:01vaguely see a mysterious woman sitting
13:24:03cross-legged inside her face covered by
13:24:05a veil. H Have the core disciples also
13:24:08come to watch this battle? Cho Hong,
13:24:11Seao, Emo Xian, Tanti, Yuan Yu. These
13:24:14are all geniuses among geniuses. The
13:24:17appearance of these people momentarily
13:24:18stole everyone's attention. The four
13:24:21people closest to arena number one, Shir
13:24:23Gand, R Yin, Huan, and Jian Hensonire
13:24:26feeling unprecedented pressure. Ordinary
13:24:28disciples of immortal sex are fine. They
13:24:31don't feel that sense of competition.
13:24:33After all, everyone's cultivation level,
13:24:35combat strength, and other aspects are
13:24:37neither high nor low. And those few were
13:24:39among the top teams on the pre-match
13:24:41leaderboard, even the number one among a
13:24:43certain spiritual route. Every now and
13:24:46then, you can feel the scrutinizing
13:24:48gazes cast down from above. Lon Tion
13:24:50smiled slightly. It seems everyone wants
13:24:53to see who will win. Chuchio asked
13:24:55expressionlessly. Are you sure you want
13:24:57to fight me with only a single spiritual
13:24:59route? Lon Tion smile froze slightly.
13:25:02Then he said in a deep voice, "I have
13:25:04defeated many opponents with multiple
13:25:06spiritual roots, and you will be one of
13:25:08them." "Then let's<unk> begin," Chucho
13:25:11said without further ado. Instantly, the
13:25:13entire square fell silent. Everyone
13:25:15watched the number one arena with
13:25:17tension. Splash! The sound of flowing
13:25:20water resumed. Lion flicked his right
13:25:22hand and a long sword gleaming with pure
13:25:25flowing water appeared out of thin air
13:25:27in his palm. The fact that the blade was
13:25:29formed of water amazed everyone. At the
13:25:32same time, the surrounding water
13:25:33elemental energy became denser. The
13:25:36autumn water sword, a growth type
13:25:38spiritual weapon. Chuchio narrowed his
13:25:40eyes. Lion stood with his sword in hand
13:25:43and asked in a loud voice, "Where is
13:25:45your thousand-year-old spirit beast?"
13:25:47Chu Chio shrugged. You're not worthy of
13:25:49Lord Hichchi's help. These words, once
13:25:52spoken, caused quite a stir, not to
13:25:54mention the blue sky above the arena.
13:25:57Even the spectators below the ring had
13:25:59their expressions change. The
13:26:00expressions of the core disciples, who
13:26:02were high and mighty, became even more
13:26:05amused. H. It was unclear whether the
13:26:07sound came from the blue sky or from the
13:26:09resounding clang of the autumn water
13:26:11sword. In an instant, the 1 m long blade
13:26:14grew to 3 m. A deep blue light flickered
13:26:17within. It harbors a deep and cold
13:26:20chill. Upon seeing this, Chuchio
13:26:22conjured a spirit seal with the
13:26:24character Vub wood on his right hand.
13:26:27With a gentle shake, a large number of
13:26:29sunflower seed-shaped seeds sprayed out.
13:26:31After sensing the rich aquatic energy
13:26:33around it, it grew rapidly. They quickly
13:26:36transformed into soft aquatic plants,
13:26:38each a meter long. If you look closely,
13:26:40you'll find that both sides are
13:26:42extremely sharp. With a slight turn,
13:26:44clear scratches immediately appeared on
13:26:46the hard ring. Sword water grass. Lon
13:26:49Tion raised an eyebrow upon seeing this.
13:26:51A sense of forboding rising in his
13:26:53heart. It's not over yet. Chuchio
13:26:56suddenly curled up the corners of his
13:26:57mouth, revealing a strange smile. With a
13:27:00flick of his left hand, the character
13:27:02for water appeared. The next second, an
13:27:05incredibly dense surge of water
13:27:06elemental energy erupted forth. Water.
13:27:09They soared water grass in front of you
13:27:11like crazy. They were originally only 1
13:27:14m long, but in the blink of an eye, they
13:27:16grew to 5 m. Like rows of emerald green
13:27:19pythons, they occupied most of the
13:27:21arena. They then aimed at the target on
13:27:23the other side and rolled over like
13:27:25cutting machines. The hissing sounds
13:27:27rang out continuously, and the entire
13:27:29sturdy arena began to sway from side to
13:27:32side. Upon seeing this, Lion who had
13:27:35remained relatively calm, widened his
13:27:37eyes in disbelief and exclaimed, "You
13:27:39actually cultivate both water and with
13:27:41spiritual roots." Chapter 94 Max level
13:27:44water transformation technique. The
13:27:46ending was predestined 1/2. Chapter 94
13:27:50Max level water transformation
13:27:51technique. The ending was predestined
13:27:531/2. Mainly cultivating both spiritual
13:27:56roots. This choo chio is too
13:27:58overpowered. Almost all people with
13:28:00multiple spiritual roots choose to
13:28:02cultivate only one major, but he
13:28:04actually cultivates two. At this moment,
13:28:07it was clear whether they were formal
13:28:08disciples below the arena or core
13:28:11disciples in the sky. Upon hearing
13:28:13Lion's exclamation, everyone showed
13:28:15expressions of shock. As is wellknown,
13:28:18cultivators with multiple spiritual
13:28:19roots usually choose one of them as
13:28:21their main cultivation method. This can
13:28:24increase the speed and efficiency of
13:28:25cultivation and even the success rate of
13:28:28breaking through realms. If you have two
13:28:30or more majors, then it will take an
13:28:32exceptionally long time. There have been
13:28:34other cultivators like Chuchio who have
13:28:36multiple spiritual roots and choose to
13:28:38cultivate multiple spiritual roots
13:28:40together. Although its combat power,
13:28:42magical power, and other aspects are all
13:28:44very strong, he has almost no rivals at
13:28:47the same level. But in the end, he
13:28:49didn't even reach the golden core stage
13:28:51and was trapped and died at the
13:28:52foundation establishment stage. Why?
13:28:55Focusing on one type of spiritual route
13:28:57will lead to faster breakthroughs and
13:28:59fewer obstacles. The more spiritual
13:29:01roots one cultivates, the more difficult
13:29:03it becomes to break through realms and
13:29:06the greater the obstacles become. Most
13:29:08importantly, compared to having a single
13:29:10spiritual root, having multiple
13:29:12spiritual roots requires more time to
13:29:14learn spells and cultivation techniques.
13:29:16Therefore, this is destined to be a very
13:29:18difficult road. Chuchio<unk>'s only
13:29:20advantage is that water nourishes wood,
13:29:23making him a dual elemental spirit
13:29:25route. I'm not watching anymore. He's a
13:29:27guy who's destined to have no future. At
13:29:29this moment, Shiao Hong shook his head
13:29:31with disdain, and the huge cruise ship
13:29:33beneath his feet disappeared without a
13:29:35trace with a gentle sway. This guy still
13:29:37has no patience. Siao, sitting
13:29:40cross-legged on the back of the Black
13:29:42Panther, curled his lips. At this
13:29:44moment, a rather magnetic male voice
13:29:46came from above the green leaves. Isn't
13:29:48this the style of Iron Blood Peak? Just
13:29:50charge forward and break through at all
13:29:52costs, just to hone that sharpness in
13:29:54their hearts, so they are very decisive
13:29:56in their actions. Tanti Yuan Yu inside
13:29:59the sevenstory crystal tower chuckled.
13:30:02Doesn't this just prove that Chuio, who
13:30:04cultivates both spiritual roots, is more
13:30:07suited to Iron Blood Peak? On the other
13:30:09side, Su Chongqing was shocked. He's
13:30:11cultivating both spiritual roots. Hubay
13:30:15suddenly realized. So that's why Chu
13:30:17Chio who is water-based with element
13:30:19didn't enter the Imperial Water
13:30:20Pavilion. It turns out he's cultivating
13:30:22both kinds of spiritual roots. Ziao Xua
13:30:25said with a playful expression, "Only in
13:30:28places like your spirit beast valley,
13:30:30where there are many talented people and
13:30:32they speak so eloquently would an
13:30:34immortal master be willing to cultivate
13:30:36such a person." Su Chongqing<unk>s lips
13:30:38twitched slightly upon hearing this.
13:30:40This Xiaozi truly lives up to his
13:30:43reputation as a scholar. He can even
13:30:45curse without using any vulgar language.
13:30:48Within the entire Donging immortal sect,
13:30:50the Spirit Beast Valley is an anomaly
13:30:52among anomalies, a freak among freaks.
13:30:55Anyone can get in. Anyone with any
13:30:57spiritual route can enter. For example,
13:31:00PMO, played by Gene Kming. There's also
13:31:03Chu Chio, who currently cultivates both
13:31:05water and with spiritual roots. Even
13:31:08that fisherman at the golden course
13:31:09stage. It seems like you can't fit in
13:31:11unless you're a little eccentric. Boom.
13:31:14Just then, a thunderous explosion
13:31:16suddenly came from the number one arena,
13:31:18causing the surrounding area to shake
13:31:20violently for hundreds of meters. When
13:31:22everyone looked again, their pupils
13:31:24immediately contracted. The originally
13:31:26transparent autumn water sword in Lion's
13:31:29hand now bursts forth with a dreamy,
13:31:31ethereal blue light. With a gentle wave,
13:31:34a streak of blue light silently spread
13:31:36out. The moment it came into contact
13:31:38with the rolling sword water grass, it
13:31:40was instantly pulverized and its next
13:31:42target was Chu Chio on the other side.
13:31:44At the same time, Lion's voice rang out
13:31:47again. I thought you were a worthy
13:31:49opponent, but now I realize you're just
13:31:51a fool who cultivates two spiritual
13:31:53roots. Watching the silent pale blue
13:31:56light and listening to the other party's
13:31:58rather mocking voice, Chu Chio remained
13:32:00expressionless, as if he felt nothing at
13:32:02all. As they drew closer, even the
13:32:04onlookers began to tense up. Suddenly,
13:32:07long transparent tentacles appeared out
13:32:10of thin air. Clap, clap, clap. They flew
13:32:12off one after another toward the dark
13:32:14blue light. Strangely, this action is
13:32:17not an attack, but rather an act of
13:32:19adhesion. Each time the transparent
13:32:21tentacles come into contact with the
13:32:23ghostly blue light, they draw away a
13:32:25portion of it. In the end, the
13:32:27originally transparent tentacles turned
13:32:29into a dark blue color. The original
13:32:31deep blue light turned transparent
13:32:33instead. The terrifying power contained
13:32:36within was completely transferred. Huh?
13:32:39Everyone, including Lion, was stunned by
13:32:41this scene. Only then did everyone
13:32:43notice that Chu Chio was surrounded by
13:32:45tentacles. It looks very similar to the
13:32:47tentacles of a jellyfish. It is
13:32:49exceptionally long, stretching from an
13:32:51unknown place. All the attacks just now
13:32:54were easily neutralized by these things.
13:32:57Suddenly, Lon Tion seemed to realize
13:32:59something and exclaimed in horror, "Max
13:33:01level water transformation technique."
13:33:03Upon hearing this, everyone around him
13:33:06wore expressions of disbelief. What is
13:33:08the water transformation technique? Su
13:33:10Chongqing and Hubu looked at Ziao Xiua
13:33:13with curiosity. The latter explained,
13:33:15"It can be understood as the first
13:33:17low-level chi refining stage cultivation
13:33:19technique that Ling Nong learned, which
13:33:21is the evergreen technique." Su
13:33:23Chongqing raised an eyebrow, thinking to
13:33:26himself, "Could it be that Chu Chio,
13:33:28like me, is using cheat codes?" Ziao Xi
13:33:32continued, "The max level water
13:33:34transformation technique is said to be
13:33:36able to use water elemental power to
13:33:38create something called the lifeless
13:33:39jellyfish out of thin air. At the same
13:33:42level, it has a 50% damage reduction
13:33:44effect against any water attribute
13:33:46damage. Furthermore, it can absorb,
13:33:49store, and even retaliate against
13:33:51damage. who Buguay blurted out, "No
13:33:54wonder Chu Chio didn't take Lion
13:33:56seriously. It turns out the outcome of
13:33:57this duel was predetermined from the
13:33:59start. Blue Sky has only a water
13:34:02elemental route and the spells it
13:34:03releases are also water attribute. The
13:34:06growth type spiritual weapon in his
13:34:08hand, the autumn water sword is also of
13:34:10the water attribute. Chuchio not only
13:34:13possesses a thousand-year-old spirit
13:34:14beast, but he also cultivates both water
13:34:17and with spiritual roots. Now, he has
13:34:19even upgraded the low-level water
13:34:21transformation technique to the maximum
13:34:23level, which allows him to summon the
13:34:25lifeless jellyfish, which reduces water
13:34:28attribute attacks by 50% at the same
13:34:30level. Therefore, this was not a close
13:34:32battle at all. Taiu inside the crystal
13:34:35tower couldn't help but say, "It seems
13:34:38Chio Hong left too soon. Low-level
13:34:40techniques are nothing special in
13:34:41themselves. However, very few people
13:34:44will cultivate to the maximum level
13:34:46because this requires a lot of time and
13:34:48effort. The vast majority of people,
13:34:50almost none of them have that kind of
13:34:52patience. Moreover, once you become a
13:34:54full member, you can learn advanced
13:34:56spells or techniques. As a result, no
13:34:59one took the mere water transformation
13:35:01technique seriously anymore.
13:35:03Unexpectedly, Chuchio's comprehension
13:35:05was so astonishing. In just a few years,
13:35:08he actually upgraded the low-level water
13:35:10transformation technique to the maximum
13:35:12level. Yu Yuyu, Lion could no longer
13:35:15speak a complete sentence. Chuio
13:35:17shrugged. Didn't I tell you you're not
13:35:19qualified to get Lord Hi to take action?
13:35:22He simply waved his hand. The tentacles,
13:35:25imbued with the power of the autumn
13:35:26water sword, were all aimed at the blue
13:35:29sky opposite. Under the horrified gaze
13:35:31of the other party, they transformed
13:35:33into sharp blades. In an instant, it was
13:35:36as if dozens of autumn water swords had
13:35:38launched a collective attack. The even
13:35:41deeper, darker blue light almost filled
13:35:43everyone's pupils. The blue sky's
13:35:45reaction was remarkably swift. He
13:35:47frantically channeled the water
13:35:49elemental power in his Danteon,
13:35:51transforming it into walls of water that
13:35:53blocked his path. However, all of this
13:35:56was in vain and meaningless because
13:35:58these tentacles themselves contain all
13:36:00the damage from autumn water swords
13:36:02attack. It's like using someone else's
13:36:04strength against them. Snap, slap, slap,
13:36:07clap, clap, clap. One by one, the water
13:36:10walls were breached, making a series of
13:36:12cracking sounds. Soon, Lion was forced
13:36:15into a corner of the arena by these
13:36:17tentacles. He had long lost his former
13:36:20glory and was now nothing but a
13:36:21disheveled mess, completely incapable of
13:36:24fighting. Seeing this, Chuchio said
13:36:26casually, "You lost." Chapter 95. The
13:36:29final profits were divided among the
13:36:31three of them, two halves. Chapter 95.
13:36:34The final gains divided among the three
13:36:36two halves. Chuchio and Lion's duel. The
13:36:39battle between the first and second
13:36:41place teams in the pre-match standings
13:36:43ended quickly. Everyone thought the two
13:36:45were evenly matched and that a fierce
13:36:47battle was likely to take place.
13:36:49Unexpectedly, Chu Chio unilaterally
13:36:51crushed the opponent. This person not
13:36:54only cultivates both water and wood
13:36:56spiritual roots, but also has mastered
13:36:58the lowest level cultivation technique
13:37:00of the water control pavilion, water
13:37:02transformation technique to the maximum
13:37:04level. It was truly amazing. Let's go.
13:37:07It's boring. Blue Sky ranked second is
13:37:10nothing special. It seems I
13:37:11overestimated it before. You can't say
13:37:14that. They just can't beat Chuchio. Not
13:37:16us. Many people find this outcome
13:37:18difficult to accept. The most
13:37:20dissatisfied group were those who bet on
13:37:22blue sky to win. These guys thought they
13:37:24could make a fortune from this
13:37:25opportunity to acquire large quantities
13:37:27of spirit stones, spirit rice, and even
13:37:30various other resources. Unexpectedly,
13:37:32they lost everything. Soon, Lion along
13:37:36with Wu Wan and the others slunk away.
13:37:38Instead, Chuch Chio went to Su Chongqing
13:37:41and the other two stall again. "Senior
13:37:43brother Chu," Su Chongqing glanced
13:37:45guilty at the billboard. Chuch Chio said
13:37:47with a half smile. Shouldn't you give me
13:37:49some spirit rice wine? Such Chan Xing
13:37:51was taken aback at first, then
13:37:53immediately took out the remaining dozen
13:37:55or so caddies of top grade spirit rice
13:37:57wine and said with a smile, "I prepared
13:37:59it a long time ago." Seeing that the
13:38:02other party was so sensible, Chu nodded
13:38:04in satisfaction, then took out one of
13:38:06his communication talismans and
13:38:08continued, "Your spirit rice wine is
13:38:10quite good. Let's keep in touch more
13:38:12often in the future." Of course, amidst
13:38:15the envious glances of those around him,
13:38:17Su Chongqing quickly took the hand.
13:38:19Chuchio put the spirit rice wine into
13:38:21his storage bag, then waved goodbye
13:38:23without turning back as he walked out.
13:38:25Now, both protagonists have passed away.
13:38:28The onlookers dispersed at this moment.
13:38:30Of course, Su Chongqing and his two
13:38:32companions sold quite a few more items
13:38:34from their stall later on. However, the
13:38:36premium spirit rice wine that Su
13:38:38Chongqing brought is no longer
13:38:40available. The rest were all top quality
13:38:42watermelons and roasted spirit beast
13:38:44meat. Seeing that there were no more
13:38:46customers, the three of them left,
13:38:48stepping on the large leaved grass.
13:38:50After an incense sticks time, they
13:38:52returned to Su Chongqing<unk>s wooden
13:38:54house in the core of the spiritual
13:38:55field. Hubui exclaimed excitedly, "Old
13:38:58Su Xiao, we've struck it rich this
13:39:00time." Su Chongqing glanced at the two
13:39:03of them and said, "Quick, let's<unk> see
13:39:05how much we sold today." Xiao Zi counted
13:39:07them first since the number of people
13:39:09buying watermelons was not many compared
13:39:12to those buying spirit rice wine and
13:39:13barbecue. Without a set meal, the price
13:39:16would be even lower. How much in total?
13:39:18300 lowgrade spirit stones. That's
13:39:21equivalent to three mid-grade spirit
13:39:23stones. This return is decent. It's a
13:39:25small profit. The combined cost of
13:39:27watermelon seeds, time, and labor is
13:39:30actually less than one mid-grade spirit
13:39:32stone. At this moment, Su Chongqing
13:39:35finished counting and immediately said,
13:39:37"I have a little more than Lao Xiao, but
13:39:39it's a pity that it's not sold by
13:39:40weight, so most people only buy one
13:39:43cup." "How much?" Ziao Zia asked
13:39:45curiously. Su Chaning placed all the
13:39:48proceeds on the table in front of him. A
13:39:50total of 685 low-grade spirit stones,
13:39:53which is equivalent to six mid-grade
13:39:55spirit stones and 85 lowgrade spirit
13:39:58stones. It is worth noting that both of
13:40:00them earn the profits independently. In
13:40:02other words, the spirit stones earned
13:40:04from the package deal are still in
13:40:06Hubuay's hands. So far, the exact number
13:40:09is still unclear. Hubuay became more and
13:40:12more excited as he counted, his body
13:40:14trembling involuntarily. Old Su, old
13:40:17Xiao, I can't finish counting. I simply
13:40:19can't finish counting. Upon hearing
13:40:21this, Su Chongqing and Ziao Xiua
13:40:24exchanged a glance and immediately went
13:40:26to help. With the combined efforts of
13:40:28the three, they finally managed to count
13:40:30the spirit stones they earned from the
13:40:31barbecue and set meal. How many? 5,088
13:40:35low-grade spirit stones. That translates
13:40:38to 50 mid-grade spirit stones or 88
13:40:41lowgrade spirit stones. At this moment,
13:40:43the three of them stared wideeyed at the
13:40:45table full of spirit stones. I knew I
13:40:47could make a fortune. I never expected
13:40:49to earn so much. It should be noted that
13:40:51Hubuay earns less than 10 mid-grade
13:40:54spirit stones a year from selling spirit
13:40:56beast dung. As for Xiao Xiua, he's just
13:40:58a fisherman. It's good enough that he
13:41:00doesn't owe any spirit stones. Such
13:41:02Chongqing, on the other hand, calculates
13:41:05based on 2500 caddies of top grade
13:41:08spiritual rice per quarter. 800 caddies
13:41:10should be given to Leing. Give Hubu 150
13:41:13caddies. 50 caddies of millet should be
13:41:16given to Han Su. Therefore, he only had
13:41:191,500 gene left. That's 6,000 gene,
13:41:223,000 caddies for those four quarters
13:41:25combined. The second grade Lingi rice
13:41:27currently on the market. The ratio of
13:41:29inferior to inferior is 1 minute and 1.4
13:41:32seconds. The ratio of premium to high
13:41:35quality is 1 minute and 1.3 seconds. The
13:41:38ratio of the best quality to the best
13:41:40quality is 1 minute and 1.2 seconds.
13:41:43They can sell 5,000 lowgrade spirit
13:41:45stones a year, which is equivalent to 50
13:41:47mid-grade spirit stones. This time, the
13:41:50total revenue from the three people
13:41:51stall was 6,078 lowgrade spirit stones.
13:41:55Even after deducting the cost, let's say
13:41:57it's five mid-grade spirit stones,
13:41:59that's still a profit of 55 mid-grade
13:42:01spirit stones. In other words, the final
13:42:04profit from this stall was equivalent to
13:42:06Sue Chongqing<unk>s official annual
13:42:08income. So many spirit stones. who
13:42:10Buguay<unk>s eyes lit up and he felt
13:42:12like he was about to faint from
13:42:13happiness. Ziao Xu<unk>s voice trembled
13:42:16slightly. This is the first time I've
13:42:18ever seen so many spirit stones. Then
13:42:21the two of them turned to look at Su
13:42:23Chongqing, who remained relatively calm.
13:42:25His gaze was quite complex. Su Chonqing
13:42:28asked, puzzled, "Why are you looking at
13:42:30me?" Hubuay took a deep breath trying to
13:42:33calm himself down and then said,
13:42:34"Seriously, old Su, if it weren't for
13:42:37your reminder, we wouldn't have made so
13:42:39much money this time. So, you should get
13:42:41the lion's share." Ziao Xua nodded in
13:42:43agreement. "Yes, you should take the
13:42:45lion's share. Then, I'll take them all."
13:42:48Su Chaning pretended to take them all,
13:42:50but seeing the two people next to him
13:42:52become nervous, he grinned and said,
13:42:54"Just kidding." Few Hub Bug and Xiao Zuv
13:42:58breathed a sigh of relief. If Su
13:43:00Chongqing really takes it all, they
13:43:02might not turn against each other, but
13:43:03they will definitely be dissatisfied.
13:43:05After all, everyone worked very hard
13:43:07today. Su Chonqing looked at the dense
13:43:10array of low-grade spirit stones in
13:43:12front of him and pondered. Of the three
13:43:14of us, old who has had the hardest time
13:43:16this time, he hasn't stopped working
13:43:18from beginning to end. Indeed, Ziao
13:43:20Xiuan nodded slightly. Hubuay quickly
13:43:23waved his hand. No, no, no. You've all
13:43:25worked very hard, too. Su Chongqing saw
13:43:28the two people's reactions, thought for
13:43:30a moment, and said, "How about this?"
13:43:32Lahu worked the hardest, and I gave the
13:43:34suggestion for setting up the stall and
13:43:36the idea for the barbecue. We<unk>ll
13:43:38take the lion's share and split the
13:43:405,000 low-grade spirit stones. Old Xiao,
13:43:43how about you take the remaining 1078
13:43:46low-grade spirit stones? Ziao Xa was
13:43:48startled and immediately said, "No, I'm
13:43:51the most relaxed. Let's take the
13:43:53remaining 78 low-grade spirit stones
13:43:55instead." This kind of job can be done
13:43:57by any water elemental route. Therefore,
13:44:00he knew what was going on. Hubui
13:44:02frowned. 78 is too little. That's quite
13:44:05a lot. I can use it to buy a lot of
13:44:07bait. Ziao Xiu was already very
13:44:09satisfied. Don't waste time. Such
13:44:12Chanqing was too lazy to waste any more
13:44:14words. Under Xiao Zua's horrified gaze,
13:44:17he pushed 1078 lowgrade spirit stones
13:44:20forward without saying a word. Then the
13:44:22remaining 5,000 low-grade spirit stones
13:44:24were divided in two with 3,000 on one
13:44:27side and 2,000 on the other. He kept
13:44:303,000 low-grade spirit stones for
13:44:32himself. As for the other half, 2,000
13:44:34lowgrade spirit stones. They were all
13:44:36pushed in front of Hubuay's wideeyed
13:44:39eyes. Chapter 96, one person takes 70%
13:44:42of the credit. Tomorrow's dragon fish
13:44:44fishing, one half. Chapter 96, one
13:44:47person takes 70%. Tomorrow we'll fish
13:44:49for dragon fish. One half spirit stones.
13:44:52Everyone has seen them. Neither Hubuay
13:44:55nor Xiao Xiua had ever seen so many
13:44:57spirit stones before. Ziao Xiua said
13:45:00excitedly. I can get new fishing gear
13:45:02now. Hubuay rolled his eyes. Old Xiao,
13:45:05is that all you've got? Ziao Xua asked
13:45:08quite unconvinced. What are you planning
13:45:09to do? Hubuay smiled smugly. I plan to
13:45:13raise spirit beasts myself and provide
13:45:15them with food and water every day so
13:45:17that I can get a steady supply of their
13:45:19droppings every day. Upon hearing this,
13:45:21Su Chongqing and Xiao Xiu<unk>s lips
13:45:24twitched violently. While in some ways
13:45:26this does demonstrate business acumen,
13:45:28but it always feels a bit dirty. Hubui
13:45:31happily put all the spirit stones into
13:45:33his storage bag and then said, "Since
13:45:35today's profits are so high, we can set
13:45:37up a stall at Forging Peak everyday."
13:45:40Such Chanqing shook his head and said,
13:45:42"Today is because of the duel between
13:45:44Chu Chio and Lion, so the foot traffic
13:45:46is extremely high. Normally, we wouldn't
13:45:49earn this much." Hubui blinked. As long
13:45:52as there's a profit to be made, that's
13:45:54fine. Su Chonqing continued. "Not only
13:45:56that, but when those competitors see
13:45:58that we've made a lot of money, they'll
13:46:00definitely try every means to imitate
13:46:02us, and they might even lower the
13:46:04price." Xiao Zua nodded slightly. Old Su
13:46:07is right. This is indeed a big problem.
13:46:10What should we do then? Hubui frowned.
13:46:12Su Chongqing glanced at the two of them
13:46:14and chuckled. Simple. We just need to
13:46:16earn the franchise fees. Franchise fee?
13:46:19The two looked completely bewildered. Su
13:46:21Chongqing explained. Now we have top
13:46:24quality watermelons, top quality spirit
13:46:26rice wine, barbecue seasoning that must
13:46:28be paired with barbecue, and even
13:46:30cheaper spirit beast meat. These have
13:46:32all been tested by the market and
13:46:34customers. Therefore, by using barbecue
13:46:36seasoning and various resources as bait
13:46:39to attract franchises, all competitors
13:46:41can be turned into suckers. This was the
13:46:43first time Ziao Xiua and Hubu had heard
13:46:46of this idea. Therefore, I was deeply
13:46:48moved and couldn't calm down for a long
13:46:50time after hearing it. In their minds,
13:46:53all that matters is making money. Even a
13:46:55little less wouldn't matter. But Su
13:46:57Chongqing was different. He no longer
13:46:59cared about such a small amount of
13:47:00profit. According to his description, as
13:47:03long as someone joins, it's equivalent
13:47:05to generating revenue. The more people
13:47:07there are, the more you earn.
13:47:08Ultimately, like a snowball rolling
13:47:10downhill, the profits will only grow
13:47:12larger and larger. Xiao Zua hesitated,
13:47:16as if he wanted to say something, but
13:47:17then stopped. But what if these people
13:47:19change their minds? Such Chanqing had
13:47:22already thought of a solution. It's very
13:47:24simple. Everyone who joins must sign a
13:47:26spirit talisman contract with us. That
13:47:28will do. Hubuay couldn't help but gasp.
13:47:32The two of them felt as if they had been
13:47:33subjected to a dimensional reduction
13:47:35attack. Selling barbecue, ling rice
13:47:38wine, and watermelons, these things are
13:47:40indeed profitable. But I have to admit,
13:47:42it was extremely hard work. Moreover,
13:47:45you can't have this kind of return every
13:47:47day. Nowadays, as long as Su
13:47:49Chongqing<unk>s franchise theory is
13:47:51implemented, they don't need to go out
13:47:52and set up stalls to obtain spirit
13:47:54stones continuously. Amazing. Ziao Xiwa
13:47:57couldn't help but give a thumbs up,
13:47:59completely convinced and feeling that he
13:48:01had wasted his time studying. Su
13:48:03Chongqing squinted, thinking to himself,
13:48:05"Once the news gets out, I can sell wine
13:48:08and open a restaurant in the scattered
13:48:09cultivator market and even cooperate
13:48:12with Yao Xang Pavilion. Work to earn a
13:48:14living? Working is out of the question.
13:48:16I will never work for someone else in my
13:48:18life." The three of them then had a good
13:48:20chat. One is the follow-up plan. The two
13:48:22are the profits and losses afterward.
13:48:24Hubui said seriously. Old Su, this time
13:48:28you have to take the lion's share,
13:48:29otherwise I I'll withdraw. Xiao Ziwa
13:48:32chimed in. That's right. Su Chongqing
13:48:34didn't stand on ceremony this time.
13:48:37Fine. From now on, I'll take 70%. Even
13:48:40close brothers keep clear accounts.
13:48:42Moreover, the reason why so many spirit
13:48:44stones were distributed earlier was
13:48:46because. Isn't the point to lure these
13:48:48two people onto the pirate ship? Ziao Xa
13:48:50was the first to state his position. I
13:48:52haven't made any significant
13:48:54contribution so I only need 10%. Hubui
13:48:57thought for a moment and said then I'll
13:49:00take the remaining 20%. Su Chanqing
13:49:02provided Lingi wine and watermelon.
13:49:05Hubui provides spirit beast meat. As for
13:49:08Xiaoi Such Chanqing of course wouldn't
13:49:11let this opportunity pass and asked with
13:49:13a smile, "Old Xiao, how's your little
13:49:16cloud rain technique?" Xiao Zi replied,
13:49:19"It's all right. We're currently on the
13:49:21third floor. Such Chanqing pointed to
13:49:23his own grade two spirit field and said,
13:49:26"Then I'll have to rely on you from now
13:49:28on." Before Xiao Zua could speak, Hubu
13:49:31asked in confusion, "Don't you have
13:49:33Binger to help you?" Su Chongqing
13:49:35shrugged. Ever since the Choong
13:49:37incident, Binger has been kept in check
13:49:39by her sister and is not allowed to come
13:49:41here at all. Furthermore, there has been
13:49:43no further news of Xang Schw since that
13:49:46exchange. Therefore, we have no choice
13:49:48but to find someone else to bring ring.
13:49:50Coincidentally, Ziao Xiua is a formal
13:49:53disciple of the Imperial Water Pavilion
13:49:55and has even reached the foundation
13:49:57establishment stage. The key is that
13:49:59this guy has a lot of time. Instead of
13:50:01fishing, come here and let it rain.
13:50:03We've known each other for so long.
13:50:05We're practically family now. Okay. Xiao
13:50:07Zua did not refuse and even immediately
13:50:10walked towards the spirit field. Having
13:50:12received so many spirit stones, he still
13:50:15felt indebted to Sue Chongqing. Now,
13:50:17finally, we can make even the slightest
13:50:19bit of compensation. As soon as he stood
13:50:22on the edge of the field, he immediately
13:50:24waved his hand. Soon, a cloud of water
13:50:27vapor gathered above the spirit field.
13:50:29Judging from its color, it was even
13:50:31darker than Jeang Shua. Splash! Soon, a
13:50:34dense rain of spiritual energy began to
13:50:36fall. The spiritual plants nourished by
13:50:39the rain stretched out one after
13:50:41another. Even the air here feels much
13:50:43fresher. Such Chongqing saw this and
13:50:46smiled with satisfaction. At this
13:50:48moment, Hubu asked, "Old Sue, with your
13:50:51talent in planting, 1 acre of grade 2
13:50:53spirit land is simply not enough. What
13:50:56realm are you at now? And how long will
13:50:58it take to break through to the
13:50:59foundation establishment stage?" Su
13:51:01Chongqing replied, "I've already reached
13:51:03the late stage ofQi refining. As for
13:51:06breaking through, that depends on luck.
13:51:08Hubuay pondered for a moment. Then it
13:51:10should be soon. By then, the yield of
13:51:13two acres of grade two spirit fields
13:51:15will at least double. At that time, the
13:51:17spirit beasts he raised were also able
13:51:19to produce feces steadily. Su
13:51:21Chongqing<unk>s heart skipped a beat,
13:51:23and he suddenly asked, "What's the
13:51:25situation with that black dragon pool?"
13:51:27Hubuay came to his senses and said,
13:51:29"It's a deep pool hidden underground. We
13:51:32don't know exactly how deep it is, but
13:51:33we can be sure that there are dragon
13:51:35fish and fish demons inside. Su
13:51:37Chongqing nodded. I recently brewed a
13:51:40type of yellow rice wine that is even
13:51:41better than spirit rice wine. If this
13:51:44wine can really be used as bait to catch
13:51:46dragon fish, then we can give it a try.
13:51:48Hubuay<unk>s eyes lit up. Great. He
13:51:51already had a strong attachment to
13:51:52arowas. Although I didn't succeed last
13:51:55time, I did see it. If you catch a
13:51:57dragonfish, you can become an apprentice
13:51:59of that golden core stage fisherman. Not
13:52:01long after, Ziao Xua finished casting
13:52:03the minor cloud rain technique. When he
13:52:06returned, Hubuay told him about what had
13:52:08happened at Black Dragon Pool. Ziao Xiwa
13:52:10himself is an ultimate fishing
13:52:12enthusiast. Upon hearing that there was
13:52:14new bait, they even go fishing for
13:52:16dragon fish. They immediately became
13:52:18excited, their eyes sparkling. The three
13:52:20hit it off immediately and decided to
13:52:22give it a try tomorrow. Chapter 97.
13:52:25Earning franchise fees. Arriving at 100t
13:52:28cliff, two halves. Chapter 97. Earning
13:52:31franchise fees. Arriving at Baijang
13:52:33Cliff. Two halves. Time quickly came to
13:52:35the next day. Early one morning, Su
13:52:38Chongqing, Hubu, and Xiao Ziwette
13:52:41gathered together again, then took their
13:52:43belongings and flew towards Forging
13:52:45Peak. Those three guys really did come.
13:52:47I've also made barbecue this time. So,
13:52:49who's afraid of who? Although my
13:52:51watermelons aren't top grade, and my
13:52:53spirit rice wine isn't top grade, I'm
13:52:55cheap. The moment Su Chongqing and his
13:52:58two companions appeared, many of their
13:53:00colleagues became alert. Pairs of eyes
13:53:02were fixed intently on them. Customers
13:53:04who had tried the barbecue yesterday
13:53:06were immediately drawn to it and crowded
13:53:08around. Many people showed disgust at
13:53:10the food in their hands and mouths. He
13:53:12vomited before he finished eating and
13:53:14even threw the rest on the ground. Then
13:53:17holding the spirit stones, he approached
13:53:19Su Chongqing and the other two.
13:53:21Meanwhile, the competitor's stall was
13:53:23almost deserted. This shows that Su
13:53:25Chongqing and others cultivated a
13:53:27considerable number of fans in just one
13:53:29day. In comparison, the expressions on
13:53:31the faces of their colleagues must have
13:53:33been extremely unpleasant. But it wasn't
13:53:35over yet. Su Choning<unk>s next action
13:53:37left them utterly hopeless. Hubuay
13:53:40arranged the shelves. Grilling meat.
13:53:42Apply barbecue seasoning while brushing
13:53:44on the ingredients. As the rich aroma
13:53:46filled the air, customers mouths
13:53:48watered. Such Chanqing suddenly pulled
13:53:51out an advertising board with three
13:53:52large characters on it. What? Eat for
13:53:55free? Holy crap. It's free. This is to
13:53:58thank all our customers for their
13:53:59support yesterday. Quick squeeze in.
13:54:02This move instantly snatched away the
13:54:04few customers remaining at the other
13:54:05stalls, effectively monopolizing the
13:54:07market. Damn it. Seeing this scene,
13:54:10countless colleagues gritted their
13:54:12teeth, and some even felt their hearts
13:54:14bleed. Seeing that it was about time, Su
13:54:16Chongqing gave Xiao Xiu a wink. The
13:54:19latter understood immediately and walked
13:54:21to the other side. Soon he arrived at a
13:54:23stall that had no customers. The stall
13:54:25owner was a female cultivator who had
13:54:27awakened the fire elemental route. She
13:54:30has a lot of experience, insights, and
13:54:32skills when it comes to grilling meat.
13:54:34Unfortunately, they lost out because of
13:54:36the barbecue seasoning. No matter how
13:54:38hard you try, you can't recreate the
13:54:40taste of the roasted meat from Hubuay's
13:54:42hands in a short period of time. Ziao
13:54:44Xiwa said with a smile. Fellow Daist,
13:54:47you don't want to lose money, do you?
13:54:49Weren't you with those two guys over
13:54:50there? Lu Ming asked in surprise. Ziao
13:54:53Xua nodded slightly. Yes, we're
13:54:55together. My name is Xiao Xiua. Lu Ming
13:54:58snorted. You sir named Xiao? Are you
13:55:00here to laugh at me? Of course not. Xiao
13:55:03Zua grinned and said, "I'm here to seek
13:55:05cooperation with you." Upon hearing
13:55:07this, Luing<unk>s gaze immediately went
13:55:09blank. "You want to cooperate with me?"
13:55:12Ziao Xua pointed to the opposite side
13:55:14and said, "You can see how popular our
13:55:16stall is, right?" Upon hearing this,
13:55:19Luing nodded subconsciously. "I saw it."
13:55:21Ziao Xua coaxed patiently. "Do you want
13:55:24your business to be just as booming?"
13:55:26Luing<unk>s expression changed slightly.
13:55:28She couldn't help but look the man in
13:55:30front of her up and down. Seeing that he
13:55:32looked like a bookworm, she hesitated
13:55:34for a moment, then asked, "What is the
13:55:36price?" Xiao Zua shrugged. Don't worry,
13:55:39I don't want you. You can join our team
13:55:41for just 10 mg-deed spirit stones. Thus,
13:55:44they could obtain the barbecue seasoning
13:55:46recipe for free," Lu Ming exclaimed in
13:55:48surprise. "10 mid-grade spirit stones."
13:55:52Seeing the other party's reaction, Ziao
13:55:54Xiaua couldn't help but curl his lips.
13:55:56"You think it's too expensive? I'd
13:55:58better choose another one. After all,
13:56:00only smart people can make big money."
13:56:02He turned and left, not wanting to waste
13:56:04any time. As he walked, he muttered to
13:56:07himself, "Oh dear, I only earned 60
13:56:09mid-grade spirit stones yesterday."
13:56:12"Fellow Daist, please wait." Upon
13:56:14hearing about this astonishing gain, Lu
13:56:16Ming quickly ran forward. Xiao Zi raised
13:56:19an eyebrow. "What?" Lu Ming took a deep
13:56:21breath. "10 mid-grade spirit stones for
13:56:23a barbecue seasoning recipe? Just
13:56:25thinking about how someone else earned a
13:56:27full 60 mid-grade spirit stones
13:56:29yesterday." She felt incredibly envious
13:56:31and jealous. Ziao Xua nodded and said,
13:56:34"If you are worried, we can sign a
13:56:36spirit talisman contract. My name is Lu
13:56:38Ming. Fellow Daiso, please wait a
13:56:41moment. I'll go and gather 10 mid-grade
13:56:43spirit stones right away." At this
13:56:45moment, Lu Ming wished she could grow
13:56:47wings and fly away. If you miss this
13:56:49chance to make a fortune, she feels like
13:56:51every time she's sleeping, she wakes up
13:56:53and slaps herself hard. Upon seeing
13:56:56this, Ziao Xiua immediately returned to
13:56:58Su Chongqing and Hubu's side. Su
13:57:01Chanqing asked, "How is it?" Ziao Xiwa
13:57:03said in a low voice. "A female Dowist
13:57:06has already shown interest and is
13:57:08currently preparing spirit stones." Such
13:57:10Chonqing was very satisfied. Very good.
13:57:13Develop one person first and then wait
13:57:15until others see that she is making
13:57:17money. Naturally, more people will hand
13:57:19over spirit stones in exchange for
13:57:21barbecue seasoning recipes. Are 10
13:57:23mid-grade spirit stones a lot? It seems
13:57:26like a lot, but it's not actually that
13:57:27much. It's stuck in a position that's
13:57:29neither here nor there. Ordinary
13:57:31cultivators could take it out by
13:57:33gritting their teeth and stomping their
13:57:34feet. As long as you can recoup your
13:57:36costs, then you're not at a loss. If
13:57:39business is booming and the profits
13:57:41exceed 10 mid-grade spirit stones, then
13:57:43it's definitely a huge profit. How much
13:57:45longer do we have to wait? Hubu couldn't
13:57:48help but say, "I want to go fishing at
13:57:50Black Dragon Pool." Su Chongqing
13:57:52replied, "Soon." Not long after, Lu Ming
13:57:55rushed back. He stood in front of the
13:57:57three people. Her gaze swept back and
13:57:59forth between Hubui, Su Chongqing, and
13:58:02Ziao Xiua. Finally, I looked around at
13:58:04the densely packed customers. Seeing so
13:58:07many people enjoying their meal, her
13:58:09heart began to pound. If all these
13:58:11people could become his customers,
13:58:12wouldn't that mean we've struck it rich?
13:58:15Ziao Zua asked, "Fellow Daist Lu, have
13:58:18you gathered all the spirit stones?" Lu
13:58:20Ming immediately took out 10 mid-grade
13:58:22spirit stones. Of course. Each person
13:58:25who joins receives 10 mid-grade spirit
13:58:27stones. What if there are 10 people,
13:58:29even a 100 people? Suddenly, Xiao Zua
13:58:32became even more enthusiastic. Fellow
13:58:34Dowist Lu is indeed a smart man. You
13:58:37deserve to be rich. Lu Ming suddenly
13:58:40hugged 10 mid-grade spirit stones to her
13:58:42chest and said, "Seriously, let's sign
13:58:44the spirit talisman contract first." Of
13:58:47course. Ziao Xi immediately took out a
13:58:50blank contract talisman. As everyone
13:58:52knows, signing a contract is equivalent
13:58:54to being recognized by the immortal
13:58:56sect. If anyone goes back on their word
13:58:58or denies it, the Ministry of Penalties
13:59:00will come knocking. Xiao Zua complied
13:59:03with the requirements and handed over
13:59:04the barbecue seasoning recipe. Lu Ming
13:59:07handed over 10 mid-grade spirit stones
13:59:09as a franchise fee. Su Chongqing said,
13:59:12"Old who teach fellow Daoist Lu how to
13:59:15apply barbecue seasoning." "Okay," Hubu
13:59:17replied. Next, Lumang began to learn how
13:59:20to apply barbecue seasoning. It's
13:59:22actually not troublesome at all. In
13:59:24fact, it's very simple. The slightly
13:59:26difficult part is mainly the ratio of
13:59:28the barbecue seasoning. But not long
13:59:30after, Lu Ming said she had learned it.
13:59:32They even tried it a few times, and some
13:59:34of them did it quite well. Su Chongqing
13:59:37and his two companions tasted each one
13:59:39and found that the cooking time,
13:59:40texture, and flavor were all
13:59:42surprisingly good. Hubui immediately
13:59:45said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we have
13:59:47finished eating all the barbecue for
13:59:49today." "What? So fast? I haven't had
13:59:52enough yet." The customers all looked
13:59:54surprised upon hearing this. However,
13:59:56Hubu did not offer any further
13:59:59explanation, but immediately put the
14:00:01things away. Immediately afterwards, the
14:00:03three of them rode on the large leaf
14:00:05grass and quickly left the area. "Our
14:00:07opportunity has arrived." Just as the
14:00:09other competitors were eager to try. At
14:00:11this moment, Lu Ming revealed a
14:00:13confident smile and started setting up
14:00:15her stall again and the spirit beast
14:00:17meat she roasted. In terms of both
14:00:19texture and taste, it's even better than
14:00:21hubay. This immediately attracted many
14:00:24customers who hadn't left. Enter
14:00:26money-making mode in no time. Meanwhile,
14:00:29the three who left on the large leaf
14:00:30grass began to divide the spirit stones.
14:00:33A total of 10 mid-grade spirit stones.
14:00:36Such Chongqing holds 70%. Therefore, he
14:00:39receives seven medals. Hubuay holds 20%.
14:00:42Therefore, he takes two pieces. Ziao
14:00:44Xiua said he would take one/tenth of the
14:00:46prize. Therefore, he took one piece.
14:00:49Although it's less than yesterday, it
14:00:50only took half an hour today. Hubui
14:00:53exclaimed in amazement. Su Chongqing
14:00:55instructed. From now on, you should
14:00:57continue as you are today. Old who will
14:01:00do the barbecue and old Xiao will
14:01:02recruit people. As for myself, of
14:01:04course, I'll still be farming. Okay. The
14:01:06two people next to him nodded in unison.
14:01:08Before long, they arrived at the 100foot
14:01:11cliff where Black Dragon Pool was
14:01:13located. Chapter 98, the Deep Black
14:01:15Dragon Pool, the victory over the
14:01:17fisherman, 1/2. Chapter 98, The Deep
14:01:20Black Dragon Pool, the decisive victory
14:01:22for the fisherman, 1/2. Hunjang cliff is
14:01:26self-explanatory. It is 100 ft high.
14:01:28From top to bottom, it is almost a
14:01:30straight cliff. At the very bottom is a
14:01:32dark hole. Looking down from above, Su
14:01:35Chongqing felt the building was about to
14:01:37collapse. It felt like I was about to
14:01:39fall at any moment and I immediately
14:01:41felt tense. The other two were not
14:01:43firsttime visitors, so they remained
14:01:45relatively calm. Hubuay pointed to the
14:01:47dark entrance and said, "Old Su, to get
14:01:50to Black Dragon Pool, you have to go
14:01:52inside first." After reading it, Su
14:01:55Chonqing looked away and couldn't help
14:01:57but say, "This doesn't seem simple."
14:01:59Xiao Xiua smiled mysteriously. "It's
14:02:02even more complicated inside." These
14:02:05words immediately piqu Su
14:02:06Chongqing<unk>s curiosity and he
14:02:08immediately steered the large leafed
14:02:10grass towards the dark entrance below.
14:02:12As you get closer, you can clearly feel
14:02:14the chilling aura emanating from within.
14:02:17This shows that things are not simple at
14:02:18all. As Such Chongqing and his two
14:02:21companions fell into the cave entrance,
14:02:23the outside light was gradually
14:02:25swallowed up. Fortunately, we are all
14:02:27cultivators. Su Chongqing and Xiao Xiua
14:02:30in particular have reached the
14:02:32foundation establishment stage.
14:02:34Therefore, it's not that you can't see
14:02:36clearly in such a dark environment.
14:02:38However, compared to the outside, what
14:02:40you see here is a bit blurry. After
14:02:42entering, Such Chongqing realized that
14:02:44they hadn't reached the bottom yet. He
14:02:46peakedked out to check the situation.
14:02:48There was actually a vertical distance
14:02:49of several tens of meters. The
14:02:51surrounding rock walls are very smooth.
14:02:53It's obvious at a glance that this place
14:02:55was washed by water many years ago. The
14:02:58probability of rain is very small. It's
14:03:00most likely a waterfall. Before long,
14:03:02the three of them finally reach the
14:03:04bottom. It's dark and cold here, making
14:03:06people uncomfortable. Su Chongqing has a
14:03:09wood spiritual route, and Xiao Xiua has
14:03:11a water spiritual route. The two seem to
14:03:13be doing well. Hubuay seemed very
14:03:15uncomfortable. Environmental factors and
14:03:18atmosphere can cause various reactions
14:03:20in spiritual roots. Ziao Xiwa pointed to
14:03:23the longer and deeper passage on the
14:03:25right and said, "Next, walk this way."
14:03:27After a distance of about a few hundred
14:03:29meters, you will be able to see the
14:03:31black dragon pool. Such Chonqing nodded
14:03:34and continued to control the large leaf
14:03:36grass to move to the right. It truly
14:03:38lives up to its reputation as a more
14:03:40advanced mode of transportation than
14:03:42even a flying paper crane. Occasionally,
14:03:45a few water droplets would fall, but
14:03:47they would be blown away by the
14:03:48whirlwind created by the large grass
14:03:50before they could get close. If this
14:03:52were replaced with paper cranes, it
14:03:54wouldn't be long before there were water
14:03:56stains everywhere. It might even cause
14:03:58more serious damage. Just keep moving
14:04:00forward, ever forward. After a straight
14:04:02line distance of several hundred meters,
14:04:04the view ahead suddenly opened up. A
14:04:07large underground cavern came into view
14:04:09of the three of them. Black Dragon Pool
14:04:11is located in a depression directly in
14:04:13front of it. However, it wasn't
14:04:15completely dark here. Many green plants
14:04:17are growing out of the cracks. It
14:04:19emitted a greenish glow, making the
14:04:21atmosphere eerie. But precisely because
14:04:23of this, most people who come here to
14:04:25fish can see clearly. Such Chonqing
14:04:27recognize the plant at a glance. Green
14:04:30water branches, plants that only grow
14:04:32near groundwater. The current market
14:04:34price is decent. One plant can sell for
14:04:36about one low-grade spirit stone. There
14:04:38are about 10 plants of varying sizes
14:04:40scattered here. This is equivalent to a
14:04:42dozen or so low-grade spirit stones. But
14:04:45clearly, the people who come here are
14:04:47not here for these green water branches.
14:04:49Therefore, everyone agreed not to take
14:04:51them with them. The depression below is
14:04:53the famous black dragon pool. Its shape
14:04:56is close to an ellipse and its area is
14:04:58about three jang, approximately 10 m.
14:05:01The pool was very still like a mirror.
14:05:03Occasionally, fish or insects would swim
14:05:06by creating ripples, but these would
14:05:08quickly become still. It has a faint
14:05:10green glow. It's unclear whether the
14:05:12color is due to the water itself or the
14:05:14surrounding green branches. As for the
14:05:16temperature, it's a bit lower than
14:05:18outside. It's important to know that we
14:05:20are currently in the transition period
14:05:21between summer and autumn. Therefore,
14:05:23the outside temperature is in the 20s,
14:05:26neither cold nor hot. It's a bit cold
14:05:28here, probably only around 10° C. Su
14:05:31Chongqing saw a lot of fishing gear left
14:05:33behind by anglers, but didn't see anyone
14:05:35else. He couldn't help but say, "I
14:05:38thought such a famous place would be
14:05:39very popular." Ziao Xua shrugged. There
14:05:42aren't many people who dare to come here
14:05:44to fish. Hubui chimed in. That's right.
14:05:47There was no one here when we came last
14:05:49time. So, what's the next step? Such
14:05:51Chongqing glanced at the two of them.
14:05:53Although, I know how to fish and my
14:05:55skills are pretty good. But this is
14:05:57black dragon pool and it contains not
14:05:59only dragon fish, but also dangerous
14:06:01fish demons. Xiao Zua pondered. Since
14:06:04there are three of us, let's choose
14:06:06three spots, and each of us can try
14:06:08fishing first. Hubay then urged, "Old
14:06:11Su, hurry up and take out your new
14:06:13yellow rice wine." Su Chongqing nodded
14:06:15slightly, then took things out of the
14:06:17small storage bag. One is the yellow
14:06:19rice wine that everyone is longing for.
14:06:21There were also a few large blacks
14:06:23skinned watermelons. This time, I
14:06:26brought a total of three caddies of
14:06:27yellow rice wine. Each person gets one
14:06:29pound of fish when fishing. Hubuay took
14:06:32the first bite, and before he could even
14:06:34use it as bait, he took a sip. It's
14:06:37really delicious. No wonder it's the
14:06:39wine you brewed, Laos Su. Upon seeing
14:06:41this, Ziao Xiua couldn help but lick his
14:06:44lips. He quickly took the wine and
14:06:46tasted it, saying, "The taste is indeed
14:06:48quite good. It seems to be more mellow
14:06:50than the spirit rice wine." Su Chongqing
14:06:53explained, "Yellow rice wine is indeed
14:06:55of a higher grade than spirit rice wine,
14:06:57but unfortunately, the quantity is
14:06:59limited." Xiao Zi pondered carefully and
14:07:02said, "Since spirit rice wine can
14:07:04attract dragonfish, then yellow rice
14:07:06wine must be fine. It's just a matter of
14:07:09whether they bite the hook. Next, the
14:07:11three of them each chose a fishing spot.
14:07:13They weren't far apart, about 3 m apart.
14:07:16This way, we can react promptly no
14:07:18matter what happens. At this moment,
14:07:20Ziao Ziwa took out a green bamboo
14:07:22fishing rod from his small storage bag,
14:07:24which looked very tough. Hubui<unk>s
14:07:26eyes widened. Old Xiao, you're
14:07:28shameless. You actually changed to a new
14:07:31fishing rod. If I remember correctly,
14:07:33this green bamboo pole is worth one
14:07:35mid-grade spirit stone. Su Chongqing was
14:07:38surprised. A mid-grade spirit stone.
14:07:40Upon hearing this, Ziao Xu smiled
14:07:43smugly. I'm reluctant to spend money on
14:07:45anything else, but I'm really willing to
14:07:47go all out on fishing tools and bait.
14:07:49Hubui rolled his eyes as he pulled out
14:07:51his fishing gear. It resembles a piece
14:07:53of black iron and looks quite heavy.
14:07:55There were also a few faint spiritual
14:07:57patterns on it. Ziao Zui glared at him.
14:08:00You beast, how dare you say I'm
14:08:02shameless? This black iron rod is even
14:08:05more expensive, costing at least two
14:08:07mid-grade spirit stones. Hubuay
14:08:09chuckled, a sly glint in his eyes. But
14:08:12soon, the two seemed to have thought of
14:08:14something. They all looked at Su
14:08:16Chongqing without prior arrangement.
14:08:18They were immediately dumbfounded. It
14:08:20turned out that Su Chongqing wasn't
14:08:22holding a fishing rod. Instead, they
14:08:24picked up the large leaf grass, their
14:08:26mode of transportation, and then tied
14:08:28four fishing lines and hooks to it. Holy
14:08:30Old Sue, you cheated.
14:08:32didn't you? When it comes to
14:08:34shamelessness, you're the one at this
14:08:36moment. Looking at the large leaf grass
14:08:38in Su Choning<unk>s hand, both Hubuay
14:08:41and Xiao Xiua were cursing and swearing.
14:08:43Su Chonqing, however, calmly stated,
14:08:46"This time, the three of us will not
14:08:48only fish, but also compete to see who
14:08:51is the best angller." Chapter 99.
14:08:53Patiently waiting, the cunning fish
14:08:55demon, two halves. Chapter 99, Patiently
14:08:58waiting, the cunning fish demon, two
14:09:00halves. Splash. Pour in 2 ounces of
14:09:03yellow rice wine. The once calm,
14:09:05mirror-like pool of water was instantly
14:09:08rippled with waves. This also signifies
14:09:10the official start of the threeperson
14:09:12fishing competition. Such Chonqing
14:09:14placed the large leafed grass in front
14:09:16of him. The trembling of a leaf
14:09:18indicates which fishing line has taken
14:09:20the bait. Then he took out a wooden
14:09:22chair from the storage bag. He pllopped
14:09:23down on it and then picked up the
14:09:25black-skinned watermelon. And so they
14:09:27ate with relish while patiently waiting.
14:09:29The other two, Ziao Xiua and Hubu, were
14:09:33equally impressive. A true angler
14:09:34carries more than just a fishing rod.
14:09:37Chairs, stools, fishing nets, and other
14:09:39such items were all brought along. I
14:09:41remember last time it seemed like we
14:09:43waited for half an hour. Be careful. The
14:09:46fish demon might also appear. There are
14:09:48three of us this time. We should be
14:09:50fine, right? Hubuay recalled the last
14:09:52time he came here to fish for dragonfish
14:09:54and how the scene was extremely
14:09:56dangerous. While I was relieved to have
14:09:58survived, I was also a little nervous.
14:10:00After all, no one knows if the fish
14:10:02demon will reappear. In fact, no one
14:10:05knows exactly what kind of strength it
14:10:07possesses. This time, there was one more
14:10:09person than last time. However, Su
14:10:11Chongqing was only at the late stage
14:10:13ofQi refining. And so, time passed by
14:10:16second by second. At first, the entire
14:10:19black dragon pool was very quiet.
14:10:21Suddenly, bubbles began to rise in the
14:10:23distance. At first, there were only a
14:10:25few, and the intervals between each one
14:10:27were very long. As the flavor of the
14:10:29yellow rice wine dissipates in the
14:10:31water, the frequency of bubbles
14:10:33gradually increases. Seeing this, Su
14:10:36Chongqing and the other two quickly
14:10:38exchanged glances and became fully
14:10:40alert, so focused that they even forgot
14:10:42to breathe. One bubble after another
14:10:44approached them from afar. Just as it
14:10:46reached the position of the fishing
14:10:47hook, it suddenly stopped. There was no
14:10:50further movement. There were no more
14:10:51bubbles. It was as if everything that
14:10:53had just happened was an illusion. Such
14:10:56Chanin took a deep breath and thought to
14:10:58himself, "This black dragon pool is
14:11:00really eerie." Hubui was the first to
14:11:03lose his composure and asked in a low
14:11:05voice, "Old Su, old Xiao, what's going
14:11:07on?" Ziao Xa waved his hand and said
14:11:10calmly, "It's just a little trick of the
14:11:12fish. Let's not rush it and let's not
14:11:14check the hook lest we scare it away."
14:11:16Su Chongqing remained silent. After all,
14:11:19it was his first time fishing at Black
14:11:21Dragon Pool. Moreover, this time the
14:11:23target is a dragon fish that is said to
14:11:25have a trace of the bloodline of a
14:11:26demonic dragon. I always feel that I can
14:11:29accept whatever happens. After that,
14:11:31this strange situation never happened
14:11:33again. Not even the bubbles appeared.
14:11:35However, the three remained calm. I came
14:11:38here fishing, prepared to stay for a
14:11:39whole day. Everything to eat and drink
14:11:41was prepared. You could easily take a
14:11:43nap here. In the dim underground, no one
14:11:46knew how much time had passed. Hubuay
14:11:49was feeling drowsy because he had drunk
14:11:51some alcohol earlier. Ziao Xiua, true to
14:11:53his reputation as a seasoned angller,
14:11:56remained wideeyed and looked quite
14:11:57energetic. Su Chonqing had finished the
14:12:00watermelon in his hand and then took out
14:12:02a premium sweet potato. Because it
14:12:04wasn't baked, it has a rather hard
14:12:06texture. Fortunately, the white meat
14:12:08inside is crisp and juicy. It's crunchy
14:12:10when you take a bite. After finishing
14:12:12his meal, Such Chanqing took out two
14:12:14eggs laid by Guinea Fowl. It's already
14:12:17cooked in advance, so you can eat it
14:12:19right after peeling it open. Click.
14:12:21Click. No. Can you concentrate on
14:12:23fishing for once? Xiao Xiuf finally
14:12:26couldn't hold back anymore. I was
14:12:27staring intently at it. It's one thing
14:12:29for Hubu to be sleeping on the other
14:12:31side. This is even more outrageous. His
14:12:34mouth never stopped moving. He was
14:12:36constantly eating. Su Chan blinked. Want
14:12:39some? I Ziao Xua was about to refuse,
14:12:42but after sensing the spiritual energy
14:12:44contained in the egg, he subconsciously
14:12:46swallowed. Seeing this, Su Chongqing
14:12:49grinned and then tossed the hard-boiled
14:12:51egg in his left hand over. Ziao Xiua
14:12:53took it and examined it carefully.
14:12:55"Strange! What kind of egg is this?"
14:12:58"Smaller than an egg, yet it contains a
14:13:00more concentrated spiritual energy than
14:13:02an egg. It's<unk> a bit of a mishmash."
14:13:04Su Chongqing shrugged. "This is an egg
14:13:06laid by one of my guinea fouls
14:13:08yesterday. Moreover, instead of one egg
14:13:10at a time, it has now become two eggs at
14:13:13a time. Ziao Zua peeled off the outer
14:13:15shell, and seeing the tinder egg white,
14:13:18his appetite was immediately wetted, so
14:13:20he stuffed it directly into his mouth.
14:13:22The moment you chew, the vital energy
14:13:24contained within the egg surges
14:13:26intensely in your mouth. His eyes
14:13:28widened immediately. These are eggs laid
14:13:30by guinea fowl. I've eaten guinea foul
14:13:33eggs before. It's tiny and the spiritual
14:13:35energy content inside is extremely low,
14:13:38but the eggs laid by Su Chongqing<unk>s
14:13:40guinea foul were not only larger. Even
14:13:42the spiritual energy content after
14:13:44cooking is actually higher than normal.
14:13:46Goodness, this person is not only
14:13:48talented in planting, but also in
14:13:50raising spirit beasts, right? Just as
14:13:52the two were eating eggs. The sound of
14:13:54splashing water came from black dragon
14:13:56pool. Again, this is underground and
14:13:59it's very quiet. Apart from the three
14:14:01people eating, breathing, and their
14:14:03heartbeats, there was almost no other
14:14:05sound. Faced with this sudden situation,
14:14:07Su Chongqing and Xiao Zua were the first
14:14:10to react and hurly looked towards the
14:14:12surface of the black dragon pool. Hubui,
14:14:15who was still half a beat late, had just
14:14:17opened his eyes. Then you can see that
14:14:19the originally calm water surface is now
14:14:21rippling. At the same time, one bubble
14:14:24after another appeared continuously. It
14:14:26looked as if something was approaching
14:14:27Su Chon<unk>s fish hook. Faced with this
14:14:30situation, Ziao Xiwa decisively put down
14:14:32his fishing rod and immediately went to
14:14:34fish. Hubuay finally came to his senses
14:14:37and asked nervously, "What's going on?"
14:14:40Ziao Xiwa called out, "Come quickly and
14:14:42help! Old Sue might be about to catch
14:14:44his first fish." Soon, the three of them
14:14:47huddled together, all watching
14:14:48nervously. The underwater object kept
14:14:50circling around Su Chongqing<unk>s
14:14:52fishing hook. It looks like it's
14:14:54stealing the bait. They're still
14:14:55deliberately toying with us. In short,
14:14:58it didn't bite the hook immediately. The
14:15:00scene looked familiar to Hubu. Old Xiao,
14:15:03don't you think it's very similar to the
14:15:04last time we came here to fish for
14:15:06dragonfish? Ziao Xua was stunned for a
14:15:09moment upon hearing this, then said
14:15:11incredulously, "The first one can't be a
14:15:14dragon fish." Such Chonqing was quite
14:15:16surprised, never expecting to be so
14:15:18lucky. However, Hubuguay shook his head
14:15:21and said in an even weaker voice, "It's
14:15:23a fish demon." Xiao Ziwi added, "Last
14:15:26time, we also thought it was a dragon
14:15:28fish taking the bait, but it turned out
14:15:30to be a trick by a fish demon,
14:15:32deliberately trying to lure us in. Once
14:15:34the hook is pulled, the other person
14:15:36will inevitably drag you into the water.
14:15:38Hiss!" Su Chongqing gasped, saying
14:15:41incredulously, "So insidious! Splash!"
14:15:44The water began to churn continuously.
14:15:47Soon, one of the leaves of the big leaf
14:15:49grass began to shake violently. At first
14:15:51glance, it looks like a big fish has
14:15:53taken a bait. However, having learned
14:15:56from the previous experience, this time
14:15:58with the reminders of Xiao Xiu and Hubu,
14:16:01they decided to proceed. Such Chonqing
14:16:04not only didn't pull the fishing line,
14:16:06but also pretended not to see it and
14:16:08remained completely still, refusing to
14:16:10fall for the fish demon's trick. Splash!
14:16:13Splash! The sound of the rushing water
14:16:15grew increasingly intense, and even
14:16:17enormous fish tails emerged from the
14:16:19water. Chapter 100, the fish demon is
14:16:22injured and comes to investigate at
14:16:24night. 1/5 Chapter 100, The Fish Demon
14:16:27is injured and comes to investigate at
14:16:29night 1/5. If you don't know him or if
14:16:32Su Chongqing is alone, seeing such a big
14:16:34fish tail, you'd definitely be eager to
14:16:36pull the hook. But if you do that,
14:16:38you'll fall into the trap of the fish
14:16:40demon in the water. After all, it has
14:16:42tremendous strength in water. last time
14:16:45if it weren't for Xiao Xiua who was in
14:16:47the Foundation establishment stage
14:16:49helping him, Hubuay would have certainly
14:16:51died. Now looking at the huge fish tail
14:16:54that was faintly visible, all three of
14:16:56them remained very calm. Hubui gritted
14:16:59his teeth and said, "Let's see how long
14:17:01you can keep up this act." After a
14:17:03while, the other fishing line tied to
14:17:05the large leaf grass also started to
14:17:07sway. At this moment, both fishing lines
14:17:09and both hooks reacted. Now, everyone
14:17:12was conflicted. Is it a fish demon or is
14:17:14it an arowana? Is it arrogant or not?
14:17:17The three quickly exchanged glances.
14:17:19Such Chonqing couldn't help but ask,
14:17:21"Should we try a second fishing line?"
14:17:24This Xiao Zi and Hubui exchanged a
14:17:26glance somewhat hesitant. Seeing that
14:17:29neither of them knew what to do, Su
14:17:30Chongqing raised an eyebrow. "To be
14:17:32honest, this dragging on isn't going to
14:17:35work. Let's<unk> just take action."
14:17:36Hubuay was taken aback. "Old Su, what do
14:17:40you want?" Su Chongqing said in a deep
14:17:42voice. Isn't the fish demon trying to
14:17:44scheme against us? Then let's<unk>
14:17:46deliberately pull the fish hook and when
14:17:48it thinks it's about to succeed will
14:17:50suddenly launch an attack. I feel a bit
14:17:53was reluctant to take the risk. Based on
14:17:56his many years of fishing experience. If
14:17:58you fail once, it's unlikely you'll
14:18:00succeed again. Moreover, those who come
14:18:02here to fish may encounter even more
14:18:04dangerous attacks. This fish demon will
14:18:06definitely hold a grudge. However,
14:18:09Kubuguay said fiercely, "I think Laau Su
14:18:11is right. We can't just sit here and
14:18:13wait. What if an arowana actually takes
14:18:15the bait? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?
14:18:18Besides, I also want revenge." It was
14:18:20clear that both Su Chongqing and Hubu
14:18:23said the same thing. After thinking it
14:18:25over, Ziao Xuf finally nodded. After
14:18:27all, they are a team, essentially a
14:18:30unified entity. Su Chongqing said
14:18:32seriously, "Once my large leaf grass
14:18:34starts to rotate, it will generate
14:18:36extremely strong power. In this way, the
14:18:39fish demons in the water will mistakenly
14:18:41think that someone is pulling on the
14:18:42fishing hook. When the time is right,
14:18:45we<unk>ll seize the opportunity and take
14:18:46action. Even if we don't kill it, just
14:18:49getting injured will be revenge for old
14:18:50whoa and Hubu immediately nodded." Next,
14:18:55Su Chongqing held the large leafed grass
14:18:57above his head. Infuse it with your own
14:18:59with elemental power. It immediately
14:19:02started spinning clockwise. It started
14:19:04slowly but then got faster and faster.
14:19:06From four leaves, it gradually became
14:19:08one. At first, the fish demon underwater
14:19:11thought that the fisherman had finally
14:19:13reacted. Unexpectedly, the reaction this
14:19:16time was so strong with a soft. It was
14:19:19also brought to the surface of the
14:19:20water. Su Chongqing and the other two
14:19:23had been staring at him, and when they
14:19:24saw his face, their expressions all
14:19:26changed slightly. The fish demon had a
14:19:29rather ferocious appearance. It not only
14:19:31has human-like facial features. The eye
14:19:33is a triangle. His eyes held a sinister
14:19:36glint. The lips are very thin, and the
14:19:38teeth inside are all thin and sharp. Its
14:19:41body is quite large. The part that is
14:19:43visible above the water is 2 or 3 m long
14:19:46from top to bottom. Except for the face,
14:19:48the entire body was covered with a layer
14:19:50of dark fish scales. combined with the
14:19:53slightly greenish pool water in the dim
14:19:55environment. It was incredibly eerie and
14:19:58terrifying. Huh. The fish demon also saw
14:20:01Su Chongqing and the other two. They
14:20:03were taken aback when they saw that the
14:20:04fish hooks were not being pulled. Let's
14:20:06do it. Such Chanqing called out.
14:20:09Immediately, the three of them unleashed
14:20:11their respective attacks. Hubuay raised
14:20:13his hand and tossed a piece of iron into
14:20:16the air. Then he snapped his fingers
14:20:17with his right hand and with a snap
14:20:19sound. Suddenly, orange flames ignited
14:20:22on the surface of the iron block. Soon,
14:20:25a huge block of iron melted into dozens
14:20:27of tiny sharp iron needles. It was
14:20:30burning. It shot towards the fish demon.
14:20:32This time, Hubuga was determined to
14:20:35avenge the previous incident. Xiao Zi
14:20:37then activated the water elemental power
14:20:39in his Danteon, creating an invisible
14:20:42water wall that directly blocked the
14:20:44water flow near the fish demon, making
14:20:46it unable to flow like a cage. Such
14:20:49Chonqing held the large leaf grass in
14:20:51his left hand, and a spirit seal with
14:20:53the character would appeared in his
14:20:54right palm. The weed seeds stored inside
14:20:57were scattered out. As they got closer
14:20:59to the fish demon, the seeds transformed
14:21:01into poisonous plants with sharp thorns.
14:21:04mark. Before the fish demon could react,
14:21:06the attack had already hit its face. Tsk
14:21:10sizzle. Instantly, its massive body
14:21:12began to tremble uncontrollably. His
14:21:14appearance, in particular, received
14:21:16special attention from Huba. His face
14:21:19was instantly disfigured, and his
14:21:21features were distorted. It looks even
14:21:23more ferocious. The fish demon was
14:21:25furious and bared its teeth at the three
14:21:27people above. Originally, it intended to
14:21:30lure Su Chongqing into a trap and drag
14:21:32him into the water. Unexpectedly, they
14:21:35were the ones who fell into the trap
14:21:36first and were even attacked. In his
14:21:38anger, he intended to dive into the
14:21:40water to hide temporarily. As a result,
14:21:43they encountered resistance. The
14:21:45surrounding water seemed to have become
14:21:47a cage. The entire body was imprisoned
14:21:49inside. At this moment, Su Choning<unk>s
14:21:52poisonous thorns also landed around and
14:21:54on the fish demon. Although it lacks
14:21:56accuracy, but its advantage lies in its
14:21:58large number, it covers a wider range
14:22:00and area. Moreover, Such Chanqing can
14:22:03control it from a distance. Therefore,
14:22:05any poisonous thorns near the fish demon
14:22:07frantically burrowed into the gaps in
14:22:09the black fish scales as if trying to
14:22:11take root in the flesh and blood. H. The
14:22:14fish demon writhed in pain. In water,
14:22:17its strength increases many times over.
14:22:19Even if the water supply is cut off, it
14:22:21should not be underestimated. Therefore,
14:22:24after withstanding several attacks from
14:22:26Su Chongqing and Hubu, it suddenly
14:22:28leaped up. Amidst this splashing sound
14:22:31of water breaking, the fish demons
14:22:33enormous body came into view of the
14:22:35three. The overall length is at least 5
14:22:37meters. It was as if a black catfish had
14:22:39come to life. However, Su Chanching
14:22:42keenly noticed this. The others tail
14:22:44appeared to have been scorched by
14:22:45something. The fish scales on it were
14:22:47all cracked and dry, and the flesh was
14:22:49charred. Yes, that's right. It's just
14:22:52dry and cracked and burnt. Even in the
14:22:54extremely cold water of the pool, it was
14:22:56in this injured state. Then the fish
14:22:59demon fell heavily into the water. This
14:23:01time, however, it was not within the
14:23:03area to be stopped, but rather fell to
14:23:05the other side. Clap clap clap. The
14:23:08fishing line on the large leaf grass
14:23:10couldn't withstand the weight and
14:23:11snapped instantly. Whoosh! Whoosh! Waves
14:23:15surged and splashed on the water's
14:23:16surface, and the previous calm was gone.
14:23:19Seeing this, Ziao said with great
14:23:21regret, "It seems we won't be able to
14:23:23catch the dragonfish." Hubui was very
14:23:26unwilling. If I reach the foundation
14:23:29establishment stage, I can cause even
14:23:31greater damage. Such Choning thought to
14:23:33himself, "This fish demon doesn't seem
14:23:36very powerful. If all three of them were
14:23:38at the foundation establishment stage,
14:23:40they might be able to severely injure it
14:23:42or even kill it." However, Ziao Xiwa was
14:23:45not wrong. Now that it's turned out like
14:23:47this, even if there were any arowas that
14:23:49were attracted just now, they've been
14:23:51scared away. Therefore, the three of
14:23:53them simply packed their things and
14:23:55quickly left. Nightfell quickly. The
14:23:58already dimly lit Black Dragon Pool was
14:24:00now even darker. The eerie green light
14:24:03made the atmosphere particularly
14:24:04sinister. At this moment, Su Chongqing,
14:24:07who had originally left, returned to
14:24:09Black Dragon Pool alone. With Hubui and
14:24:12Xiao Zua around, he couldn't go all out.
14:24:15Now that I'm alone, I naturally have no
14:24:17worries. Therefore, looking at the pool
14:24:19water that has now returned to calm, Su
14:24:21Chongqing<unk>s heart stirred, and he
14:24:23summoned the demon with water avoiding
14:24:25boat. Chapter 101, the fish demon is
14:24:28killed and the demon ship grows. Second
14:24:30update. Chapter 101. Killing the fish
14:24:33demon. The growth of the demon ship.
14:24:35Second update. A man comes to black
14:24:37dragon pool. It was still late at night.
14:24:40That's incredibly bold. But Su Chongqing
14:24:42thought it was worth it. After all, he
14:24:44had personally witnessed the fish demon
14:24:46being injured. And not just slightly.
14:24:48The extent of the injury was clearly
14:24:50serious. At this moment, the small demon
14:24:53would water avoiding boat rapidly grew
14:24:55larger after being infused with
14:24:57spiritual power. Seeing this, Su
14:24:59Chonqing casually tossed it into the
14:25:01black dragon pool in front of him. With
14:25:03a plop, the demonic wooden water
14:25:05avoiding boat, magnified several times,
14:25:08landed on the water. Then, Su Chongqing
14:25:11seized the opportunity and jumped down.
14:25:13In a flash, he stood on the deck of the
14:25:15demon with water avoiding boat. However,
14:25:18the ship did not tilt or sway at all.
14:25:20It's easy to imagine how stable it is.
14:25:22This was Su Chongqing<unk>s first time
14:25:24operating the ship. So, he carefully
14:25:26sensed its movements, thinking to
14:25:28himself, "If senior brother Leing wasn't
14:25:31lying to me, this ship can submerge in
14:25:33water." Soon, the boat began to rock
14:25:36slightly. Immediately afterward, the bow
14:25:38of the ship began to sink little by
14:25:40little. Su Chongqing watched helplessly
14:25:42as the bow, the hull, and himself were
14:25:45all submerged in the water. Strangely,
14:25:47no water flowed into the pool. The
14:25:49clothes and deck were dry. Such
14:25:51Chongqing was even more surprised to
14:25:53find that. Although the demon would
14:25:55water avoiding boat entered the water at
14:25:57an angle, but he himself was completely
14:25:59unaffected as if walking on flat ground.
14:26:02It won't fall at all. It's no different
14:26:04from lying sideways. All the water
14:26:06passed by the demon would water avoiding
14:26:08boat. It seems to avoid it automatically
14:26:10or even deliberately. Thus, Su Chongqing
14:26:13successfully entered the black dragon
14:26:15pool. He was surprised to find that the
14:26:17inside of the pool was larger than it
14:26:19appeared from the outside. There are no
14:26:21small fish or shrimp here. I did see
14:26:23quite a few broken fishing lines and
14:26:25damaged fishing hooks. Some are soaked
14:26:27in water. Some are hanging in the
14:26:29crevices of the stone wall. Such
14:26:31Chonqing controlled the demonic
14:26:32woodwater avoiding boat to continue
14:26:34deeper into the water. 10 m, 20 m, 100
14:26:38m. We still haven't reached the bottom.
14:26:41200 m, 300 m, even 500 m. There's still
14:26:45no end in sight. The interior of the
14:26:47entire black dragon pool is
14:26:49exceptionally long and its destination
14:26:51is unknown. At depths exceeding 500 m,
14:26:55aquatic life began to appear in the
14:26:57surrounding area. It looks similar to a
14:26:59carp, overall gray, black. It has a
14:27:02spindle-shaped body with a rounded
14:27:03abdomen. It has a relatively small head
14:27:06and three pairs of whiskers. They are
14:27:08located on the upper jaw, lower jaw, and
14:27:10lip. At this moment, Su Chongqing
14:27:13suddenly noticed that one of the carp
14:27:15was completely different in color and
14:27:17size from its counterparts around it. It
14:27:19is entirely red, but it gleamed with
14:27:21golden light. Could it be an arowana?
14:27:23Such Chonqing asked in astonishment. The
14:27:26so-called dragon fish. It is a fish that
14:27:28contains a trace of the bloodline of a
14:27:30demonic dragon. It only exists in the
14:27:32waters of black dragon pool. Seeing
14:27:35this, Su Chanqing immediately controlled
14:27:37the demon with water avoiding boat to
14:27:39get closer. The ordinary carp around the
14:27:42boat, sensing the intense demonic aura
14:27:44emanating from it, all froze in the
14:27:46water one by one. Only this red carp
14:27:49gleaming with golden light. He actually
14:27:51had the idea of running away. It wagged
14:27:54its tail, trying to leave. However, how
14:27:56could its speed possibly match Su
14:27:58Chong<unk>s demonic woodwater avoiding
14:28:00boat. They were instantly pulled closer.
14:28:03Then the spirit seal of the character
14:28:05Voodoo Wood appeared on Su
14:28:07Chongqing<unk>s right hand. But this
14:28:09time it wasn't an attack. Instead, they
14:28:12transformed weed seeds into black iron
14:28:14vines. Extending from his hand, he
14:28:16directly entangled the red carp. Then he
14:28:19pulled it towards himself. With a plop,
14:28:21the dragonfish landed in my arms. "This
14:28:24is it already in my hands?" Su Chonqing
14:28:27asked incredulously. The dragon fish
14:28:29that so many anglers dream of was caught
14:28:31so easily by him without even needing to
14:28:33use yellow rice wine as bait. It's safe
14:28:36to say that there's absolutely no
14:28:38difficulty involved. Looking at the
14:28:39plump arowano, it should be called a
14:28:42dragon carp that was still struggling in
14:28:43my arms. Such Chanqing quickly took out
14:28:46the water absorption bead that Sun Pong
14:28:48had given him earlier. Throw it into the
14:28:51cold pool of water in front of you. It
14:28:53immediately began to absorb it. When the
14:28:55container was one-third full, Su
14:28:57Chongqing withdrew it. Next, the first
14:28:59dragon carp was placed in the water
14:29:01gathering bead for raising. He then
14:29:03continued to steer the demon with water
14:29:05avoiding boat to explore deeper into the
14:29:08water. Not long after, they discovered
14:29:10another dragon carp, its entire body red
14:29:13and shimmering with golden light. It was
14:29:15even larger than the one we just saw.
14:29:17It's still the exact same method. Close
14:29:19the distance, bind with black iron
14:29:21vines, drop it into the water gathering
14:29:23bead. The whole process was completed in
14:29:26one go. After an unknown amount of time,
14:29:28Su Chongqing had caught five dragon
14:29:30carp. But at this moment, the demon
14:29:32would water avoiding boat stopped. Then
14:29:35it seemed to be searching for something,
14:29:37and the bow of the boat began to sway
14:29:39from side to side. I sensed the
14:29:40poisonous thorns that were released
14:29:42earlier. Su Chonqing raised an eyebrow.
14:29:45Sure enough, the demon would water
14:29:47avoiding boat quickly located its
14:29:49position. Keep going. Soon, a fish demon
14:29:52over 5 m long appeared before them. It
14:29:55really is it. Su Choning<unk>s eyes lit
14:29:57up. At this moment, the fish demon was
14:29:59staring blankly ahead. Unbeknownst to
14:30:01them, a large ship was silently
14:30:03approaching from behind. With less than
14:30:0630 m remaining, Su Chongqing issued his
14:30:08first command to the demonic woodwater
14:30:10avoiding boat. Kill it. Whoosh! The
14:30:13demonic woodwater avoiding boat suddenly
14:30:15shot out. This time, the speed is
14:30:18several times faster than before. Um the
14:30:20fish demon sensed something and hurly
14:30:23turned around. His pupils immediately
14:30:25contracted. A large blue ship came
14:30:27speeding towards them. There was also a
14:30:29human standing on the deck with a half
14:30:31smile on his face. The fish demon
14:30:33quickly recognized him as the guy who
14:30:35had attacked earlier. However, although
14:30:37it reacted, it was unable to dodge
14:30:39because the ship was going too fast. I
14:30:42saw it a second ago. The next second, it
14:30:44was crushed on his face. Immediately
14:30:46afterwards, it felt as if the body had
14:30:48been violently struck by a heavy object.
14:30:50His body shuddered violently, followed
14:30:52by a hissing sound. It didn't even have
14:30:55a chance to struggle before it was
14:30:56smashed to pieces. A large amount of
14:30:58foul smelling blood spread out.
14:31:00Countless bits of meat were floating
14:31:02everywhere. Just then, Su Chonqing
14:31:04discovered that the demon would water
14:31:06avoiding boat automatically extended
14:31:08tentacles that resembled tree roots. It
14:31:11not only absorbed the blood of the fish
14:31:13demon, it even pierced into the bits of
14:31:15flesh. Then at a speed visible to the
14:31:17naked eye, they ate it all up. Then the
14:31:20demon would water avoiding boat trembled
14:31:22violently. The already large body grew
14:31:25even larger. No, to be precise, it grew
14:31:28again. Su Chongqing quickly checked the
14:31:30situation. Demon would water avoiding
14:31:32boat. Effect one, advanced wind control.
14:31:35Effect two, advanced water repellency.
14:31:38Effect three, advanced durability.
14:31:41Effect four, devouring growth. Special
14:31:43effect locks onto location upon sensing
14:31:46demonic energy. The situation just now
14:31:49was clearly effect four. Then Su
14:31:51Chongqin controlled the demon would
14:31:53water avoiding boat to continue forward.
14:31:55Actually, he had felt that this fish
14:31:57demon was very strange just now. They
14:31:59seemed to want to venture deeper into
14:32:01the black dragon pool. But there was
14:32:03also something he was afraid of.
14:32:04Therefore, he appears hesitant. After
14:32:07walking about another 100 meters, Su
14:32:09Chongqing sensed that the water
14:32:10temperature around him was off. The
14:32:12water in Black Dragon Pool was clearly
14:32:14very cold and damp, but here it's
14:32:16getting hotter and hotter. It was as if
14:32:18the water had been boiled. Then he saw
14:32:21something he would never forget for the
14:32:22rest of his life. Chapter 102. The
14:32:25remains of a demonic dragon sprout two
14:32:27spiritual roots. Third update. Chapter
14:32:30102. The remains of the demonic dragon
14:32:32sprout two spiritual roots. Third
14:32:34update. An incredibly massive remnant
14:32:37stood silently in the water. Judging by
14:32:39visual estimation, it is at least tin
14:32:41jang in length. No skin. There is no
14:32:44meat. There is no fascia. All that
14:32:46remained were pale white skeletons.
14:32:49However, even if this thing had been
14:32:50dead for a long time, it was still tens
14:32:53of meters away. Su Chongqing could still
14:32:55feel a chilling aura that made him
14:32:57tremble. I got goosebumps. It was as if
14:32:59they were facing not wreckage, but a
14:33:01raging flood. It's easy to imagine how
14:33:04terrifying this thing must have been in
14:33:05life. Could it be that demonic dragon?
14:33:08Su Chongqing wondered to himself.
14:33:10However, the shape of the wreckage is a
14:33:11bit off. It seems to be circling around
14:33:14something. The upper body in particular
14:33:16is piled up like a bone tower. Its mouth
14:33:19was opened as wide as possible as if it
14:33:21were about to swallow something. He
14:33:23probably failed in the end and suddenly
14:33:25died. Therefore, it remained in this
14:33:27posture even after death. There was
14:33:29clearly something in the middle of the
14:33:30skeleton. Su Chongqing<unk>s heart
14:33:32stirred and he carefully controlled the
14:33:34demon would water avoiding boat to
14:33:37approach. Although the temperature of
14:33:38water increases as it gets closer to the
14:33:41ground, but this ship has the effect of
14:33:43avoiding water. In addition, there was
14:33:45the chilling aura emanating from the
14:33:47skeleton. Therefore, Su Chongqing did
14:33:50not feel unwell. For now, we can hold
14:33:52on. It's fine to hold on for a while. As
14:33:54they drew closer, Su Chongqing
14:33:56discovered that he was carrying the
14:33:58demonic woodwater avoiding boat with
14:34:00him. Compared to this massive wreckage,
14:34:02it looks like a small toy. It should be
14:34:04noted that the demon would water
14:34:05avoiding boat is even larger than the 5
14:34:08m long fish demon. But when faced with
14:34:10this thing, we feel as insignificant as
14:34:12ants. However, Su Chongqing had no
14:34:15intention of leaving. After all, this
14:34:17thing is dead, so it shouldn't pose a
14:34:19threat. Moreover, I had a strong
14:34:21premonition. The things inside were of
14:34:23great use to him. Therefore, I must take
14:34:25a look no matter what. As they get
14:34:27closer, the water temperature is getting
14:34:29higher and higher. Fortunately, we
14:34:32finally arrived directly beneath the
14:34:33wreckage. Such Chongqing stood on the
14:34:35deck and peered down. He was completely
14:34:38stunned. I thought it was something
14:34:39extraordinary. To my surprise, it turned
14:34:42out to be a tree. Fortunately, after
14:34:44careful observation, we discovered that
14:34:46this was more than just a tree. To be
14:34:48precise, it was a tree struck by
14:34:50lightning. As is widely known, lightning
14:34:52struck what is considered to be of the
14:34:54highest yang nature, which is
14:34:56specifically designed to counteract in
14:34:58and evil influences. Therefore, its
14:35:01price in the market has always been
14:35:02high. A 10-cm long piece of lightning
14:35:05struck what is worth 100 mid-grade
14:35:07spirit stones. The tree in front of us
14:35:09is at least 3 m tall. Moreover, an
14:35:12entire tree was struck by lightning. The
14:35:14yang energy contained within it is
14:35:16unimaginably intense. Therefore, at
14:35:19least 10,000 or more mid-grade spirit
14:35:21stones can be sold. Su Chongqing glanced
14:35:24at the lightning struck tree radiating
14:35:26heat, then at the chilling remains and
14:35:28couldn't help but ponder. One side is
14:35:30extreme in the other is extreme yang.
14:35:33The demonic dragon belongs to the ein
14:35:36element. Trees struck by lightning are
14:35:38considered yang. Holy this demonic
14:35:41dragon has grand ambitions.
14:35:43Unfortunately, he failed in the end and
14:35:45died instead. At this moment, Su
14:35:47Chongqing noticed something flickering
14:35:49inside the lightning structure. It
14:35:51occasionally emits a bluish light. It
14:35:53occasionally flashes a red light.
14:35:55Sometimes they intertwine, forming a
14:35:57hazy white halo. What is this? Such
14:36:00Chonqing<unk>s heart began to race. He
14:36:02sensed the intense woody spiritual
14:36:04energy contained within. Of course,
14:36:06there was also a blazing fire elemental
14:36:08energy. The greenwood spiritual root
14:36:11within his body now felt a desire to
14:36:13devour. It's like someone who's been
14:36:15starving for a long time suddenly seeing
14:36:17delicious food because Su Chongqing was
14:36:19obsessed with spiritual roots. He had
14:36:21learned about everything that could
14:36:23produce them. If I remember correctly,
14:36:25this seems to be the woodfire spirit
14:36:27crystal that allows a wood spirit root
14:36:29to give birth to a second spirit root.
14:36:31Once absorbed, it can generate a fire
14:36:33spirit root. Su Chongqing chuckled as he
14:36:36looked at the remains of the demonic
14:36:37dragon. You didn't eat it, so it doesn't
14:36:40belong to you. I found it, therefore
14:36:42it's mine. Immediately he controlled the
14:36:44demonic wood water avoiding boat to
14:36:46approach the lightning struck tree. As
14:36:48they get closer, the greenwood spirit
14:36:51roots desire to devour grew stronger and
14:36:53stronger. Even Su Chongqing felt a sense
14:36:56of hunger. Soon, a man in a boat arrived
14:36:59at the side of the lightning struck
14:37:00tree. I saw a ball of light emitting
14:37:03blue and red hues. Inside, there appears
14:37:06to be a very small crystal. It's about
14:37:08the size of an adult's fingernail. Su
14:37:10Chongqing turned the demon wood water
14:37:12avoiding boat sideways, then extended
14:37:14his right hand and released the woods
14:37:16spirit power in his dantion. Before even
14:37:19touching it, I felt a resonance with
14:37:20this crystal. The moment you touch it, a
14:37:23cool and hot sensation begins to
14:37:25penetrate your body. Su Chongqing
14:37:27suppressed his discomfort and grabbed
14:37:29the crystal in his hand. Instantly, the
14:37:31clash between the two auras intensified.
14:37:34The character Chingqing comes from the
14:37:37character Mu Mu. It transforms into
14:37:40nutrients for growth. Red comes from
14:37:42fire. The power to bring about
14:37:44transformation. He lost his balance and
14:37:46fell onto the deck. Then I became
14:37:48increasingly tired and couldn't even
14:37:50keep my eyes open. The hair on its body
14:37:52grew at a visible rate, reaching its
14:37:54waist in no time. Moreover, it shows no
14:37:57sign of stopping and continues. Such
14:38:00Chanqing was very sleepy, but he dared
14:38:02not sleep. The spiritual power emanating
14:38:04from this crystal is immense. It was as
14:38:07if a dam that had been accumulating
14:38:09water for many years had suddenly opened
14:38:11its gates to release it. It is
14:38:12incredibly powerful yet harbors hidden
14:38:15dangers. He diligently circulated the
14:38:17azure lotus creation technique using his
14:38:20own wood elemental power to guide the
14:38:22two streams of spiritual energy that had
14:38:24entered his body. The external wood
14:38:26elemental energy was all right, barely
14:38:28enough to work. But the fire elemental
14:38:30energy was like a disobedient child
14:38:33surging and thrashing within his body.
14:38:35Such Chongqing skin turned red like a
14:38:37cooked shrimp. However, his own wood
14:38:40elemental power combined with the wood
14:38:42elemental energy released by the crystal
14:38:44quickly restored his health. Repeated
14:38:46acts of destruction. Repairs were made
14:38:49time and again. I don't know how much
14:38:50time has passed. The two streams of
14:38:53spiritual energy finally became gentle.
14:38:55At the same time, the crystals once
14:38:57again emitted a white halo and its size
14:39:00is getting smaller and smaller, smaller,
14:39:02and smaller. Ultimately, it all turned
14:39:04into spiritual energy and was completely
14:39:07absorbed by Su Chongqing. At this point,
14:39:10the properties panel will appear
14:39:11automatically. Such Chonqing, male, 20
14:39:14years old. Remaining lifespan 426 years.
14:39:18Greenwood Thunderfire spiritual root.
14:39:21Effect one, natural and affinity. Effect
14:39:24two, thunder and fire affinity. Early
14:39:26stage of foundation building, the five
14:39:29layers of the longevity secret. The
14:39:31miraculous use of Lingi wine. A
14:39:33miraculous method for making yellow rice
14:39:36wine. Three layers of wood spirit
14:39:38entanglement. Ironwood armor technique.
14:39:40Four levels refers to nine layers. The
14:39:43six layers of wood storage technique.
14:39:45The nine levels of the Azure lotus
14:39:47creation technique. Lingi glutenous rice
14:39:506,000 gene 115 mediumgrade spirit
14:39:53stones. 3,654
14:39:56lowgrade spirit stones. It's not a fire
14:39:59elemental root, but a thunder fire
14:40:01elemental root. The flames contain the
14:40:03power of thunder. Such Chongqing was
14:40:05shocked. Moreover, if he remembered
14:40:07correctly, it was 118,970
14:40:11days before. In other words, after the
14:40:14second spiritual route was born, his
14:40:16lifespan was extended by another 100
14:40:18years. Even if you do nothing, you can
14:40:20live for 426 years based on your total
14:40:23lifespan. He hasn't even found a Dowist
14:40:25partner yet. and his second spiritual
14:40:27route has already appeared. Su Chongqing
14:40:30exclaimed in amazement. He slowly opened
14:40:32his eyes, but what I saw before me was a
14:40:34bit of a shock. Without realizing it,
14:40:37his hair had spread all over the entire
14:40:39demon would water avoiding ship. It
14:40:41looked as if it were a black cocoon
14:40:43enveloping itself and the ship.
14:40:46Fortunately, it was just a minor
14:40:47problem. Such Chongqing raised his left
14:40:50hand, and the faint fire elemental power
14:40:52in his dantion spread to his palm.
14:40:54Immediately the skin turned red and the
14:40:57body temperature rose. But this time
14:40:59there was no discomfort at all. Then he
14:41:01touched the extra hair with his left
14:41:03hand and it melted away in an instant.
14:41:06Soon her hair returned to shoulder
14:41:07length. However, the remaining items
14:41:10were not thrown away. Instead, they were
14:41:12stored. First, it has great
14:41:14commemorative significance. Second, keep
14:41:17it to make a fly whisk. Then, Su
14:41:19Chongqing stretched and climbed up from
14:41:21the deck. His gaze once again falling on
14:41:23the lightning struck tree worth tens of
14:41:25thousands of mid-grade spirit stones.
14:41:28Chapter 103. After 7 days, the stove
14:41:30exploded. Fourth update. Chapter 103.
14:41:33After 7 days apart, the stove exploded.
14:41:36Fourth update. Daunting immortal sect.
14:41:38Somewhere. The extraordinary encounter
14:41:41at Black Dragon Pool was triggered by a
14:41:43disciple. A mere little fish demon. It
14:41:45takes hundreds of years for a disciple
14:41:47to succeed. It's good enough to have
14:41:49something at all. Those fishermen are
14:41:51guarding a treasure mountain without
14:41:53even realizing it. Who exactly led the
14:41:55immortal sect astray. With such an
14:41:57extraordinary encounter, this person is
14:42:00destined to stand out. Keep a low
14:42:02profile. I must keep a low profile, Su
14:42:05Chongqing said with a serious
14:42:07expression. Even though I obtained so
14:42:09many spirit stones, in particular, a
14:42:11second spiritual route was born.
14:42:13However, the style of doing things,
14:42:16especially the conduct, must remain the
14:42:18same. You must not let anyone notice
14:42:20anything a miss and minimize your
14:42:22presence as much as possible. With great
14:42:24power comes great responsibility. He
14:42:26didn't want to be assigned to dangerous
14:42:28missions just because he was too strong.
14:42:30After losing the wood and fire spirit
14:42:33crystal, the young energy contained in
14:42:34this lightning struck would decrease by
14:42:3650% making it unable to boil the pool
14:42:39water. Even so, its value has not
14:42:42diminished. After all, naturally struck
14:42:44what is extremely rare. Such Chanqing
14:42:47immediately put the 3 m tall lightning
14:42:49struck tree into another storage bag,
14:42:51but instead of leaving, it controlled
14:42:53the demon with water avoiding boat to
14:42:55wander around. I wanted to see if there
14:42:57was anything else I could take with me.
14:42:59As the saying goes, a thief is not.
14:43:02Anything without an owner is ownerless.
14:43:04Since it is an unclaimed object, doesn't
14:43:06that mean anyone can become its owner?
14:43:08As he searched, Su Chongqing came to the
14:43:11back of the wreckage. It's obvious
14:43:12there's still space inside. As for where
14:43:14it leads, it is currently unclear.
14:43:17Unfortunately, it is quite narrow.
14:43:19Almost everything was blocked by the
14:43:21remains of this demonic dragon. To get
14:43:23inside, you must put away the demon with
14:43:26water avoiding boat. But once he did
14:43:28that, Su Chongqing felt that even
14:43:30leaving alive would be a problem. So,
14:43:32after thinking it over, he simply turned
14:43:34around and left. It's not too late to
14:43:36come and check it out when we have more
14:43:37strength. When Su Chongqing emerged from
14:43:40Black Dragon Pool, he found that it was
14:43:42already daylight. He immediately
14:43:44replaced the demon with water avoiding
14:43:46boat with large leaf grass. Then he
14:43:48hurried towards his own spiritual field.
14:43:50It must be said that having two kinds of
14:43:52spiritual roots and two kinds of
14:43:54spiritual power is quite remarkable. The
14:43:57growth rate of the large leaf grass has
14:43:59increased significantly. The fire
14:44:01elemental power was injected into it and
14:44:03it surged forward at breakneck speed.
14:44:06The only drawback is that it runs out
14:44:07easily and cannot be sustained for very
14:44:10long. However, when Su Chongqing
14:44:12returned home, he found someone waiting
14:44:14for him. Who? Why don't you return? You
14:44:16were waiting for me? Su Chongqing landed
14:44:19quickly. Hubui was taken aback at first,
14:44:22then asked excitedly, "Old Su, where
14:44:24have you been for the past 7 days?" Upon
14:44:27hearing this, Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes
14:44:29widened and he asked incredulously, "7
14:44:31days?" Hubui nodded, "You've been gone
14:44:34for 7 days, and I've been taking care of
14:44:36Wong Wong and a guinea foul." Such
14:44:39Chanqing quickly looked at the dog house
14:44:40and chicken coupe and found that the
14:44:42food bowls and water bowls were indeed
14:44:44plentiful. Want and the guinea fowl
14:44:46seemed to be in good condition, perhaps
14:44:48because they hadn't seen their owner for
14:44:507 days. The two little ones were quite
14:44:52excited. Wong Wong kept opening its
14:44:54mouth and making woof woof sounds. The
14:44:56guinea foul also occasionally made a
14:44:58clucking sound. Su Chonqing never
14:45:00expected that so much time would pass
14:45:02just from developing a second spiritual
14:45:04route. Now that you're back, I don't
14:45:06need to stay any longer. Hubuay breathed
14:45:09a sigh of relief. Su Chongqing smiled
14:45:11sheepishly. Thank you. Hubui waved his
14:45:14hand. We're brothers. Saying thank you
14:45:16is too formal. Su Chongqing simply took
14:45:19out a pound of yellow rice wine from his
14:45:21storage bag, handed it over and asked,
14:45:23"I have indeed been away these past few
14:45:25days. How's our business?" Hubui then
14:45:28slapped his forehead. If you hadn't
14:45:30mentioned it, I would have really
14:45:32forgotten. Here, this is the profit
14:45:34sharing from the 7-day franchise fee. Su
14:45:36Chanqing took it and then scanned it
14:45:38with his spiritual sense. There were
14:45:40actually 140 mid-grade spirit stones.
14:45:43That's equivalent to two people joining
14:45:45every day. Hubay took a big gulp of
14:45:47sweet and sour millet wine, then laughed
14:45:50and said, "Ever since Lu Ming made his
14:45:52fortune, people have been joining us."
14:45:55But old Xiao said, "Since you're not
14:45:57here for the time being, let's keep
14:45:58things under control." Su Chongqing
14:46:01nodded slightly. I'm back. You can speed
14:46:03up the recruitment process now.
14:46:05Moreover, will not only provide the
14:46:07formula, will also act as the supplier.
14:46:09You mean providing spirit beast meat?
14:46:12Hubuay seemed to understand, but not
14:46:14quite. Such Choning gave him an
14:46:16appreciative look and explained, "As
14:46:18more and more people know the formula,
14:46:20it will be leaked sooner or later, and
14:46:22we will receive fewer and fewer spirit
14:46:24stones in the future. Therefore,
14:46:26transforming into a supplier is the
14:46:28right choice. No one else has the finest
14:46:30Lingi wine. There are no premium fruits
14:46:32and vegetables, but I have it myself.
14:46:35That's where the advantage lies. This
14:46:37was also the main source of income for
14:46:39obtaining spirit stones in the long run.
14:46:41Hubu wasn't stupid. He immediately
14:46:44understood. Okay, I get it. Then he
14:46:46turned and left. Such Chongqing watched
14:46:49the other person leave, then approached
14:46:50the two children with an apologetic
14:46:53expression. Touching the dog with my
14:46:54left hand. Touch the guinea foul with
14:46:56your right hand. I'm sorry. I didn't
14:46:58mean to. I'm sorry to have worried you.
14:47:01If all else fails, how about we bring
14:47:03you all along next time. After calming
14:47:05him down, Su Chongqing went inside to
14:47:07cook. Although Hubuga has been taking
14:47:10care of the two little ones these past
14:47:11few days, but they eat the most common
14:47:13food that spirit beasts eat. The
14:47:15fourleaf clover is mixed with some
14:47:17grains. Although there is spirit rice,
14:47:19but it's not the finest quality rice.
14:47:22Standing in front of the stove, Su
14:47:23Chongqing subconsciously picked up the
14:47:25flint and steel, but as soon as he
14:47:28grabbed it, he suddenly froze. Then he
14:47:30burst out laughing. At least I have a
14:47:32fire elemental route now. Therefore,
14:47:34there is no need to continue using this
14:47:36primitive ignition method. Although
14:47:38there are currently no fire attribute
14:47:39cultivation techniques. However,
14:47:42slightly mobilizing the fire elemental
14:47:44power in the Chi Sea is not a problem.
14:47:46Therefore, Such Chongqing put down the
14:47:48flint and then rubbed his left thumb and
14:47:50forefinger back and forth with a whoosh
14:47:53sound. A wisp of red flame appeared
14:47:55between the two fingers. This is no
14:47:57ordinary flame. It is a spiritual fire
14:48:00blessed with thunder and fire spiritual
14:48:02roots. Even in the early stages, the
14:48:04temperature was not low. Therefore,
14:48:06firewood, hay, and the light can be
14:48:08easily ignited. Such Chonqing was
14:48:11overjoyed at the moment of success. He
14:48:13grinned, watching the roaring flames in
14:48:15the stove and chuckled to himself. But
14:48:18just then, a sudden crack sound came
14:48:20from the stove. Then, cracks rapidly
14:48:22spread from the inside to the outside.
14:48:24Then, with a bang, it exploded. I su
14:48:28Chongqing<unk>s smile froze and his gaze
14:48:30became blank. It took him a while to
14:48:32come to his senses. Silently, he picked
14:48:34up the small storage bag and took out a
14:48:36communication talisman. Who? It's me,
14:48:39Junior Brother Han. So, it's senior
14:48:41brother Sue. Do you want me to loosen
14:48:43the soil? Uh, this. What's wrong, senior
14:48:45brother? Do you know how to repair a
14:48:47stove? On the other side, Hans Su, who
14:48:50was holding a communication talisman,
14:48:52was stunned when he heard the question.
14:48:54After a few seconds, he tentatively
14:48:56asked, "Senior brother, did your stove
14:48:58explode?" Such Chongqing was taken
14:49:00aback. "How did you know?" Han Su
14:49:02explained, "We Earth Spirit Roots have
14:49:04been helping fire spirit roots repair
14:49:06stoves for years, so we're used to it."
14:49:08The only thing that surprised him was
14:49:10that senior brother Sue with his wood
14:49:12elemental root could actually burn the
14:49:14stove to pieces. Chapter 104. A single
14:49:17dose of tonifying pills, a powerful and
14:49:20effective method. Fifth update. Chapter
14:49:22104. A strong pill for labor. A method
14:49:25of cooking oil over a fierce fire. Fifth
14:49:27update. Senior brother, the stove is
14:49:30fixed. Hanu chuckled. Such Chanqing took
14:49:33out 10 caddies of top grade spirit rice
14:49:35and handed it over. Thank you for your
14:49:37hard work. Seeing this, Han Su waved his
14:49:40hand and said, "It's just repairing a
14:49:42stove. No payment is needed." Such
14:49:45Chanqing thought for a moment, put the
14:49:47spirit rice back, and then took out five
14:49:49catties of top grade spirit rice wine. I
14:49:51don't want the spirit rice, but you have
14:49:53to take this stuff. Han Su<unk>s eyes
14:49:55lit up immediately. This junior brother
14:49:57really needs it. For some reason, the
14:49:59wine brewed by senior brother Sue just
14:50:02tastes better. Moreover, once you enter
14:50:04a slightly tipsy state, regardless of
14:50:06the speed at which spiritual energy
14:50:08circulates, it's still about the speed
14:50:10of spiritual energy absorption. Or
14:50:12perhaps it's the speed at which one
14:50:14comprehends the techniques. All of these
14:50:16will be greatly enhanced. This is why
14:50:18Han Su made great progress during this
14:50:20period. Such Chanqing turned to look at
14:50:22the stove which had been repaired and
14:50:24reinforced and thought to himself, "It
14:50:27seems I need to find a fire attribute
14:50:29cultivation technique so that I can
14:50:30completely control the fire elemental
14:50:32power." He already understood what had
14:50:35happened with the stove explosion. Fire
14:50:37elemental roots are inherently difficult
14:50:39to control. Furthermore, this is a
14:50:41thunderfire spiritual root with a
14:50:43prefix. Not only did they become more
14:50:45irritable, moreover, the energy it
14:50:48contains is even more intense. This
14:50:50time, it's just about frying the stove.
14:50:52If you're not careful, it might turn
14:50:54into a big leaf weed next time or
14:50:56anything that requires fire elemental
14:50:58power. At this moment, Han Su put the
14:51:01spirit rice wine into a small storage
14:51:03bag and then asked, "Senior brother, I
14:51:05plan to go to the loose cultivator
14:51:06market in a few days. Do you want to
14:51:08come along or shall I buy you
14:51:10something?" Upon hearing this, Su
14:51:13Chongqing turned around with a look of
14:51:14delight. The more he looked at this
14:51:16junior brother Han, the more pleasing he
14:51:18became. He immediately said, "If
14:51:20possible, please help me buy some books
14:51:22and cultivation techniques. Still books
14:51:24and cultivation techniques." Hanu
14:51:27nodded. Su Chongqing said seriously, "I
14:51:29have been staying in the spirit field
14:51:31for many years and know nothing about
14:51:33the outside world. Only by reading
14:51:35various books and learning different
14:51:37techniques can one enrich their
14:51:38knowledge and broaden their horizons."
14:51:40Han Su agreed wholeheartedly, saying,
14:51:43"Senior brother is right." Su Chongqing
14:51:45reached out and patted the other
14:51:47person's right shoulder. Therefore,
14:51:49after you leave this time, could you
14:51:51help me buy some books to broaden my
14:51:52horizons or cultivation techniques based
14:51:55on wood or fire spiritual roots? Hansu
14:51:58quickly replied, "All right, junior
14:52:00brother, I'll remember." Although I
14:52:02don't know why they wanted to buy
14:52:03cultivation techniques other than those
14:52:05for the wood spirit route, but he knew
14:52:07in his heart that everyone has secrets,
14:52:09so he couldn't pry into them or be
14:52:11curious about them. Otherwise, we will
14:52:13never be able to obtain top grade spirit
14:52:15rice again. Afterwards, Han Su left with
14:52:18three mid-grade spirit stones. Anyway,
14:52:21it's the same as before. Refund if
14:52:23there's too much, pay if there's too
14:52:25little. Next, Su Chaning started cooking
14:52:28again, but this time to prevent the
14:52:30stove from exploding again. He picked up
14:52:32the flint that he had initially
14:52:33disliked. Half an hour later, Su
14:52:35Chongqing, Wong Wong, and Pearl Chicken
14:52:38were finally able to eat a hot meal. In
14:52:40the days that followed, everything
14:52:42returned to normal. Such Chongqing works
14:52:44from sunrise to sunset everyday. My life
14:52:47is very regular. There was no change
14:52:49whatsoever from beginning to end. They
14:52:51are even more low-key and reserved. He
14:52:54even resolutely refused when Lao Xiao
14:52:56invited him to go fishing. In short,
14:52:58staying in the spirit field is
14:53:00definitely the right thing to do. It
14:53:02wasn't until the day of the autumn
14:53:03equinox that others had just begun
14:53:05planting. The spiritual rice in Su
14:53:07Chongqing<unk>s spiritual field has
14:53:08grown up. It became increasingly robust.
14:53:11It looks like it will be fully mature in
14:53:13at most a month. A few days later, Han
14:53:16Su brought a pile of books and
14:53:17cultivation techniques from the market
14:53:19for scattered cultivators. What is this
14:53:21record of herbs? The story of wood
14:53:23grain. more than a dozen books,
14:53:25including the method of cooking oil over
14:53:27a high heat. Because he bought too much,
14:53:30Han Su said the shop owner generously
14:53:32gave him a prescription as a gift. Its
14:53:34name is Lauang pill. It can boost a
14:53:36person's energy and slow down the rate
14:53:38of hunger. Whether within the immortal
14:53:40sect or throughout the entire tanuan
14:53:43realm, these are all very ordinary, even
14:53:45extremely common prescriptions. Such
14:53:48Chonqing always felt that this wasn't a
14:53:50gift from someone who bought a lot of
14:53:51things. It's more like they sold
14:53:53everything to Han Su at once so they
14:53:55wouldn't have to wait for the next
14:53:56customer. Not only can you earn a good
14:53:58reputation, but you can also earn more
14:54:00spirit stones pills. Such Chonqing asked
14:54:03thoughtfully. Since he possesses a fire
14:54:06spiritual route, he is able to
14:54:07accumulate fire spiritual power in his
14:54:10dantion. That means it's indeed possible
14:54:12to try alchemy. Moreover, because of the
14:54:14system, anyone who learns it can refine
14:54:16top grade pills. Although this labor and
14:54:19vitality pill is the most common type of
14:54:21elixir. However, as long as the quality
14:54:24is high enough, it can still fetch a
14:54:26good price. Moreover, this most common
14:54:28low-grade pill does not require a pill
14:54:30refining furnace at all. You can just
14:54:32use a decoction pot. The steps are as
14:54:34follows: collection, processing, and
14:54:36soaking. Then comes the processing, a
14:54:39step that can alter or enhance the
14:54:40medicinal properties. Then crush it with
14:54:43a mortar and pestle or a stone mortar.
14:54:45Then moisten the powder with a wett
14:54:47agent until it is kneaded into shape.
14:54:49Ultimately, it is made into one of the
14:54:51following: honey pills, water pills,
14:54:53paste pills, or wax pills. It is indeed
14:54:56complicated in terms of steps. It's not
14:54:58complicated. At least it doesn't require
14:55:00an alchemy furnace. In short, for Sue
14:55:03Chongqing at this stage, it's a good
14:55:05opportunity to practice. However, before
14:55:08that, you must first learn the high heat
14:55:10cooking method. This is a low-level fire
14:55:12tribute cultivation technique. After
14:55:14learning this skill, one can achieve
14:55:16meticulous control over the fire
14:55:18elemental power in one's own dantion.
14:55:21Therefore, after finishing his daily
14:55:22work, Su Chonqing immediately sat
14:55:25cross-legged on the bed. One hand holds
14:55:27up the fiery oil cooking method. He was
14:55:29holding a glass of yellow rice wine in
14:55:31one hand. I'll take a sip after watching
14:55:33for a while. I'll take a sip after
14:55:35watching for a while. And then he passed
14:55:38out drunk. When I opened my eyes again,
14:55:40it was already night outside. The sounds
14:55:43of insects chirping and frogs croaking
14:55:45rose and fell. He actually got drunk.
14:55:47Such Chongqing stretched and then got
14:55:49out of bed. Once outside, Wong Wong
14:55:52huddled in its doghouse, peeking out
14:55:54with its head. Its eyes glowed green,
14:55:56scanning the surroundings like laser
14:55:58eyes. The guinea fowl had its eyes
14:56:00closed and was fast asleep. At this
14:56:02moment, the moon is bright and the stars
14:56:04are few. The moon takes center stage
14:56:06tonight, reigning supreme. The numerous
14:56:08stars, however, became secondary this
14:56:11time, and you could hardly see many of
14:56:13them when you looked up. Large patches
14:56:15of dark clouds obscured the view from
14:56:17above, allowing only the pale moonlight
14:56:20to penetrate. Such Chanqing inspected
14:56:22the spirit field, and seeing that there
14:56:24were no problems, returned to the
14:56:26entrance. I'm not sleepy now because I
14:56:28took a nap. He simply grabbed a chair
14:56:30and sat by the door, enjoying the gentle
14:56:33night breeze. Upon seeing this, Wong
14:56:35Wong immediately crawled out of the
14:56:37doghouse, yawning as he walked to his
14:56:39feet. Su Chonqing patted the dog's head
14:56:42and chuckled. I'll keep watch tonight.
14:56:44You go and rest. Wong Wong tilted its
14:56:46head, seemingly oblivious to whether it
14:56:49had understood or not. It looked at its
14:56:51owner with curiosity in its eyes. What
14:56:54are you going to come with me? Su
14:56:55Chongqing blinked. This time, it seemed
14:56:58like W one understood. He immediately
14:57:00laid down and rested his head on Su
14:57:02Chongqing<unk>s left foot. It fell
14:57:04asleep in no time. It made sounds from
14:57:07time to time. I don't know what I
14:57:08dreamed about. Su Chongqing saw this and
14:57:11didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
14:57:13However, he did not wake Wong Wong up
14:57:15and so he guarded his second grade
14:57:17spirit field. I continued reading the
14:57:19method of cooking oil over a raging fire
14:57:21by the moonlight. I don't know how much
14:57:23time passed, but the moon had already
14:57:25moved to the other side. At this moment,
14:57:28Su Chonqing seemed to sense something
14:57:30and looked at the attribute panel. The
14:57:32one layer method of cooking oil over
14:57:34high heat. Effect one, flame perception.
14:57:37Effect two, flame manipulation. Effect
14:57:40three, fire resistance increased by 10%.
14:57:43The effect of the first layer looks
14:57:44pretty good. Therefore, Su Chongqing
14:57:47chose to go allin. Should I consume
14:57:492,433
14:57:51days of my lifespan to upgrade the
14:57:53blazing oil technique to level three?
14:57:56Yes. Chapter 105, Mastering the Blazing
14:57:59Fire Technique. First place changed
14:58:01one/3. Chapter 105, Mastering the Fiery
14:58:04Technique. First place changed 1/3, the
14:58:07fiery cooking technique, three levels.
14:58:10Effect one, enhanced flame perception.
14:58:13Effect two, precise flame control.
14:58:15Effect three, fire enhancement plus 30%.
14:58:19Effect four, fire resistance increased
14:58:21by 30%. Remaining lifespan for 119
14:58:24years. The maximum number of layers is
14:58:27three, adding a normal effect. Because
14:58:29it is a low-level technique, it has no
14:58:31special effects. Such Chanqing was quite
14:58:34satisfied with this. It was better than
14:58:36nothing. After all, many of the
14:58:38cultivation techniques and spells
14:58:39available outside are low-end versions
14:58:41or even incomplete versions. Only
14:58:44immortal sects, large cultivation
14:58:46families, and top tier forces possess
14:58:48the best. Then, Su Chongqing waited
14:58:50until dawn before moving Wong Wong<unk>s
14:58:52head away. then began the daily routine
14:58:54that repeated itself every day. Clean up
14:58:57the spirit beast droppings. Remove the
14:58:59weeds from the sacred field. View the
14:59:01detailed information about the spiritual
14:59:03plant. Then use the blue finger
14:59:05technique on each one. Finally, absorb
14:59:08the trace amount of wood spirit energy
14:59:10that the spirit plant has gathered
14:59:12overnight into your body. By the time
14:59:14everything was done, the sun had already
14:59:16risen. Wong Wong and the guinea foul
14:59:18also woke up and wandered around on
14:59:20their own. Finally, I can cook. Su
14:59:23Chongqing excitedly entered the kitchen.
14:59:25The stove was repaired by Han Su. Most
14:59:28importantly, it was specially
14:59:29reinforced. Even if one has a fire
14:59:31spirit route that has reached the chi
14:59:33refining perfection stage, the
14:59:35possibility of it being damaged is very
14:59:37low if handled properly. Such Chonqing
14:59:40extended his left hand again. Rub your
14:59:42thumb and forefinger back and forth.
14:59:44With a poof sound, a wisp of red
14:59:46spiritual fire emerged. One can clearly
14:59:49feel the terrifying power contained
14:59:51within. Such Chongqing dared not be
14:59:53careless and hurriedly activated the
14:59:55boiled oil with raging fire technique
14:59:58using his microscopic control to
15:00:00continuously reduce the temperature of
15:00:01the flame. Ultimately, although there
15:00:03were no major changes in physical
15:00:05appearance, the power that can be
15:00:07released has indeed been greatly
15:00:08reduced. Then Su Chongqing threw it onto
15:00:11the prepared firewood. He scoffed. It
15:00:14immediately burst into flames. Moreover,
15:00:16it is spreading at a visible rate. But
15:00:19this time, the stove didn't actually
15:00:21explode. Temperature, power, and other
15:00:23aspects have all become controllable.
15:00:25That's more like it. Such Chongqing
15:00:27looked at the burning red flames and
15:00:29couldn't help but breathe a sigh of
15:00:31relief. Next, he placed the large black
15:00:33pot next to him on the ground. Pour in
15:00:35slightly cool spring water. We waited
15:00:38for the water temperature to rise
15:00:39gradually before adding the spirit rice.
15:00:42Instead, he picked up the wooden brush
15:00:44next to him and stirred it back and
15:00:45forth. They stopped when the water
15:00:47became murky. Then, the first pot of
15:00:49water is poured out, and clean spring
15:00:51water is poured in again before adding
15:00:53the spirit rice. Compared to others, Su
15:00:56Chongqing<unk>s cooking is characterized
15:00:57by its large portions and guaranteed to
15:01:00satisfy everyone, let alone the finest
15:01:02spirit rice. Even the best spirit rice
15:01:05is highly valued by everyone. For
15:01:07example, eating only two meals a day,
15:01:09one meal in the morning, one meal in the
15:01:11afternoon. Alternatively, you can mix
15:01:13the spirit rice from a first grade
15:01:15spirit field with the spirit rice from a
15:01:17second grade spirit field. However, Such
15:01:19Chongqing did not need to do that. Three
15:01:21meals a day. Every meal consists of top
15:01:24grade spirit rice produced from a second
15:01:26grade spirit field. In addition, there
15:01:28are various top quality fruits and
15:01:30vegetables with abundant spiritual
15:01:31energy. In short, enjoy yourself however
15:01:34you like. Cook it however you like. Even
15:01:36the most common mythical creatures like
15:01:38Wong Wong and Guinea Fowl because of its
15:01:41advantages, its physique and condition
15:01:43far surpass those of its peers. It can
15:01:45be said that she has never suffered
15:01:47since she started following Su
15:01:48Chongqing. Of course, this excludes
15:01:51situations where one is being teased,
15:01:53manipulated, or ridiculed. Half an hour
15:01:55later, breakfast was finally ready.
15:01:57Regarding food, a large bowl of spirit
15:01:59rice. I fried two eggs, a cold dish of
15:02:02premium watermelon rind, premium sweet
15:02:05potatoes steamed on top of rice.
15:02:07Regarding drinks, clean spring water,
15:02:09masterful yellow rice wine, pluck. The
15:02:12guinea foul were the first to smell the
15:02:14aroma and hopped in from outside the
15:02:15door. However, just as they were about
15:02:18to reach the dinner table, a sudden gust
15:02:20of evil wind blew in from behind.
15:02:23Because it wasn't the first time, the
15:02:24guinea foul reacted quickly. Without
15:02:27even glancing at it, he immediately
15:02:28leaped to the side. The next second,
15:02:30whoosh. A yellow wind swept past. It
15:02:33turned out that Wong Wong had also
15:02:35smelled the aroma of the food and ran
15:02:37back. This time, surprisingly, the
15:02:39guinea fowl wasn't kicked away. Wong
15:02:41Wong was quite surprised and tilted his
15:02:43head to take a curious look. But then,
15:02:45they noticed a fleeting look of disdain
15:02:47in the guinea fowl's eyes. Clap, clap,
15:02:50clap. Such Chongqing picked up the
15:02:52wooden chopsticks and tapped them a few
15:02:54times on the white porcelain bowl in
15:02:55front of him. You two stop fooling
15:02:57around. Only then did Wong Wong and the
15:03:00guinea fowl behave themselves. Then a
15:03:02person, a dog, and a chicken ate
15:03:04breakfast around the table. About 20
15:03:07minutes later, when we were almost
15:03:08finished eating, "Old Sue, I've come to
15:03:10bring you rain." Xiaozi<unk>'s voice
15:03:13rang out from outside. Hearing the
15:03:14commotion, Su Chongqing hurriedly went
15:03:17out of the house. Without him even
15:03:19having to say anything, Ziao Xiua had
15:03:21already cast a minor cloud rain
15:03:23technique. Su Chongqing was already used
15:03:25to this. In fact, the other party comes
15:03:28every few days. The main reason for
15:03:30doing this was to express gratitude.
15:03:32After all, if it weren't for Su
15:03:33Chongqing and Hubu, Xiao Zi was still a
15:03:37penniless fisherman. Unlike now when we
15:03:39receive mid-grade spirit stones every
15:03:41day, sometimes there is only one,
15:03:43sometimes there are several. There's no
15:03:45need to scrimp and save anymore. When
15:03:47buying things, you don't need to think
15:03:49about which store is cheaper or more
15:03:51expensive. As Su Chongqing approached,
15:03:53he asked, "Has the weapon forging Peak
15:03:55been holding competitions lately?" Xiao
15:03:57Xua nodded. "It's not just about
15:03:59fighting, it's<unk> about producing even
15:04:01more geniuses." "Oh," Such Chaning asked
15:04:04in surprise. Ziao Xi continued, "In the
15:04:07pre-match rankings, wasn't Chuchio first
15:04:10and Lion second?" Su Chaning nodded
15:04:13slightly. "Yes." Ziua chuckled. Now
15:04:16we're ranked fourth and fifth. What?
15:04:18Such Chanqing looked incredulous. I
15:04:20personally witnessed Chu Chio and Lion's
15:04:23duel. A first, a second. They are all
15:04:26very impressive. Unexpectedly, only 10
15:04:29days to half a month have passed. Their
15:04:31rankings plummeted to fourth and fifth.
15:04:33Ziaoa said with a playful expression.
15:04:36The formal disciples, especially those
15:04:38with metal, fire, or multiple spiritual
15:04:40roots, mostly complete various difficult
15:04:42missions that award high points outside.
15:04:45That's why people like L Tion and Hwan,
15:04:47who never leave their homes, have been
15:04:49able to act so arrogantly. With less
15:04:52than a year left until the formal
15:04:53disciple competition, the competition is
15:04:56about to begin. More and more disciples
15:04:58are returning to the immortal sect.
15:05:00Among the returning disciples, more or
15:05:02less all had some extraordinary
15:05:04encounters or opportunities. Therefore,
15:05:07in terms of strength, they have become
15:05:08even more powerful than before. Such
15:05:11Chonqing couldn't help but ask, "Who's
15:05:13number one now?" A young man named Masha
15:05:15was born in the northern desert and
15:05:17awakened three spiritual roots, wood,
15:05:20fire, and earth. His comprehension was
15:05:23even more extraordinary. He had even
15:05:25mastered the advanced blazing fire
15:05:27technique to its maximum level. There
15:05:29was a hint of envy in Xiaozi tone. Upon
15:05:33hearing this, Su Chongqing clicked his
15:05:35tongue in amazement. I originally
15:05:37thought that Chuio<unk>s dual spiritual
15:05:39roots of water and would were already
15:05:41heaven-deying enough. An even more
15:05:43heaven-deying existence has appeared,
15:05:45possessing three spiritual roots,
15:05:47mutually reinforcing each other. Ziao
15:05:50Xua agreed wholeheartedly, saying, "This
15:05:53person has already been selected as a
15:05:54core disciple, but in order to obtain
15:05:57the generous rewards of first place in
15:05:59the formal disciple competition,
15:06:01especially that thousand-year-old
15:06:02vermilion bird fruit. Therefore, I
15:06:05refuse to join this year, preferring to
15:06:07wait a year." Chapter 106. Daily Life.
15:06:10Mother Rice mutates again. February 3rd.
15:06:13Chapter 106. Daily life. Mother Rice
15:06:15mutates again 2/3 after Xiao Zua
15:06:18completes this small cloud rain
15:06:20technique and leaves. Such Chongqing
15:06:22casually waved his hand and threw out
15:06:24the companion green lotus. In an
15:06:26instant, the Azure lotus domain
15:06:28enveloped the entire acre of spiritual
15:06:31field, accelerating its growth. This
15:06:33time, Such Chanqing was not most
15:06:35concerned about the spirit rice, but
15:06:37rather the three rare spirit plants he
15:06:39had planted earlier. They are green
15:06:41gourd, fire vine, dying ko. Of these
15:06:44three plants, if even one of them
15:06:46mutates, its value will increase at
15:06:48least 10fold, making it exceptionally
15:06:51valuable. Currently, the fastest growing
15:06:53plant is geotricum candalilla. It is
15:06:56located in a place rich in earthy
15:06:58energy. Like the earth's veins, it can
15:07:00mature in just one day. Although the
15:07:02earth energy in the spirit field is not
15:07:04very strong, it does contain black soil.
15:07:07In addition, Su Chongqing was using
15:07:09theQing domain to force growth almost
15:07:12every day. Therefore, this napalium
15:07:14aphine has grown into a mature plant. It
15:07:17looked like a wisp of yellow smoke. When
15:07:19the wind blows, it twists and turns back
15:07:21and forth. It looked as if it was about
15:07:23to take flight and drift away. In fact,
15:07:26its roots have long penetrated deep into
15:07:28the black soil. An hour ago, Su
15:07:30Chongqing had tried it with his finger.
15:07:32Unfortunately, it did not mutate.
15:07:35Therefore, its current value is neither
15:07:37high nor low. At least within the
15:07:39immortal sect, there isn't a large need
15:07:41for such personnel. Even if you want to
15:07:43sell them, you have to go to the random
15:07:45cultivator market over there. Ever since
15:07:47the appearance of the great demon
15:07:49rolling dragon in the black forest 500
15:07:52years ago, the demand for ground grass
15:07:54has increased dramatically. The
15:07:56independent cultivators all wanted to
15:07:58take this opportunity to make a fortune.
15:08:00Once you succeed, you won't need to work
15:08:02hard for the rest of your life. The
15:08:04current price of a single earth guiding
15:08:06grass is one mid-grade spirit stone. The
15:08:08mutated earth dragon saliva increases
15:08:11100fold, reaching 100 mid-grade spirit
15:08:14stones. Only one mid-grade spirit stone.
15:08:17I don't care whether I sell it or not.
15:08:19Such Chongqing raised an eyebrow.
15:08:21Although fewer and fewer people are
15:08:23joining the franchise, on average, he
15:08:25still earns two mid-grade spirit stones
15:08:27every day. Therefore, there is no need
15:08:29to sell this geoilm oxipetylum now. Keep
15:08:32it for now. just in case it successfully
15:08:34mutates someday since it is impossible
15:08:36to gain benefits in terms of quantity.
15:08:39Let's start with quality. To put it
15:08:41bluntly, I'm not in a hurry right now.
15:08:43As for the fire vine, it's actually
15:08:45quite similar to the ground guiding
15:08:46grass. They have already grown, but
15:08:49because they are few in number, they are
15:08:51not very valuable. Overall, it looks
15:08:53like a burning centipede to prevent it
15:08:55from climbing on the rice. Therefore,
15:08:57Such Chanqing deliberately placed a
15:08:59wooden stick next to it. The wooden
15:09:01stick is 1 m long. The fiery vines had
15:09:03already climbed to a length of half a
15:09:05meter. Normally, this would take several
15:09:08months. But with Su Chongqing, it didn't
15:09:10even take a month. If sold now, it would
15:09:13only be worth a few dozen low-grade
15:09:14spirit stones. Therefore, we'll have to
15:09:17wait until it mutates someday to see
15:09:18what happens. The rare spiritual plant
15:09:20that Su Chongqing valued most was the
15:09:23green gourd. Not to mention that after
15:09:25this thing mutates into a small gourd,
15:09:27it can be used to refine storage items.
15:09:29Even without mutation, they can be used
15:09:31to store alcoholic beverages or even
15:09:34sold as wine bottles. In the future,
15:09:36when giving gifts to Liankai, Leingai,
15:09:39Chu Chio, and others, there's no need to
15:09:41use the most common wine pouch. It was
15:09:44clear that only half of the wood
15:09:45elemental power in his Dante remained,
15:09:48which was three drops. Such Chonqing
15:09:50decisively stopped the process and then
15:09:52retrieved the accompanying green lotus.
15:09:55Next, we need to go to Stone Mountain to
15:09:56cultivate the mutated spirit rice. In
15:09:59terms of true value, each rice plant is
15:10:01worth 1,000 mid-grade spirit stones. As
15:10:04for the mother rice, it can even yield
15:10:065,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
15:10:09Unfortunately, it can't be seen in the
15:10:11light of day for now. Therefore, in
15:10:13terms of output and quantity, they are
15:10:15all very small. Excluding the mutant
15:10:17mother rice, only 99 mutant daughter
15:10:20rice plants can be planted each time.
15:10:22This is the biggest drawback and
15:10:23shortcoming at present. Soon, Su
15:10:26Chongqing arrived alone at the foot of
15:10:28the Rocky Mountain. It must be said that
15:10:30Han Xian<unk>s formation is indeed
15:10:32impressive. No fragrance leakage issues
15:10:34have been encountered so far. After
15:10:36removing the stones blocking the
15:10:38entrance, Su Chongqing crawled inside.
15:10:40Halfway there, I immediately smelled
15:10:42that familiar aroma of rice. This is the
15:10:45unique flavor of the mutated spirit
15:10:47rice. The richer the flavor, the more
15:10:49mature it is. Soon, Su Chongqing saw 100
15:10:52mutated spiritual plants, including the
15:10:55mother rice. Overall, it's not much
15:10:57different from usual. Immature, abundant
15:10:59spiritual energy, no damage. After we
15:11:02finished processing these mutated
15:11:04spiritual plants, we can rest today.
15:11:06Such Chonqing shrugged. Then, he
15:11:08activated the little wood elemental
15:11:10power he had left in his dantion. The
15:11:13index finger of his right hand suddenly
15:11:14glowed with a bluish light. They don't
15:11:16look like human fingers. It looks more
15:11:19like a piece of precious porcelain. One
15:11:21plant, two plants, dozens of plants, but
15:11:24none were successful. Su Chongqing was
15:11:26already used to this. This is the result
15:11:28almost every day. Mutations are somewhat
15:11:31related to luck. If you're lucky, you
15:11:33might succeed in a row. If you're
15:11:34unlucky, you might fail for an entire
15:11:36quarter. Before long, all the mutant
15:11:39rice plants had been greened. None of
15:11:41them mutated. In the end, only the
15:11:43mutated mother rice remained. Many
15:11:46children, many blessings. Raiky
15:11:48cultivation one jang of domain. There is
15:11:51absolutely no difference in status,
15:11:53terms or effects. Extremely tenacious.
15:11:56Such Chonqing sometimes wonders if this
15:11:58rocky mountain is limiting its
15:12:00potential. If transplanted outdoors, it
15:12:02will receive ample sunlight everyday.
15:12:05Moreover, he would be bathed in
15:12:07spiritual rain every few days. Perhaps
15:12:09things will change differently. Then Su
15:12:11Chongqing used the last of his wood
15:12:13elemental power in his dantion to make a
15:12:16sudden thrust. Bite. Just then, a
15:12:18long-lost voice rang out. Could it be?
15:12:21Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes widened.
15:12:22Suddenly, the mutated mother rice plant
15:12:25appeared before me. The body began to
15:12:27writhe as if it had come to life. At the
15:12:29same time, it released a rich wood
15:12:31elemental energy. Subsequently,
15:12:34witnessed by Su Chongqing himself, the
15:12:36originally tall golden mutated mother
15:12:38rice. It's actually getting smaller
15:12:40little by little. It quickly reached
15:12:42half of its previous height. At the same
15:12:44time, the rice seeds on top are fuller.
15:12:47Each one is the size of an adult's
15:12:48fingernail. It's incredible. After the
15:12:51mutation process was over, Su Chonqing
15:12:53hurriedly used his spiritual sense to
15:12:55investigate. Fushing mutant mother rice.
15:12:58Many children, many blessings. Reiki
15:13:00cultivation domain. Tu jang special
15:13:03effect doubles the yield of spirit rice
15:13:06within the area. Oh dear. Such Chonqing
15:13:08couldn't help but stomp his foot as he
15:13:10watched. However, any mutated mother
15:13:13rice can be placed outdoors. Even if he
15:13:15only has one moo of second grade spirit
15:13:17field, the maximum yield is 4,000
15:13:20caddies. However, as long as it's within
15:13:22the realm of mutated mother rice, it can
15:13:24double. Each quarter's output should
15:13:26exceed 5,000 gene. The problem is this
15:13:29thing can't be ported out yet. Although
15:13:31this place is very remote, almost no one
15:13:34comes here. It's not the 10,000 that's
15:13:36scary. It's the 10,000. Who knows when
15:13:39out of nowhere someone will suddenly
15:13:41appear? Moreover, what if Hubuay and
15:13:44Xiao Zua accidentally let something
15:13:45slip? Therefore, at this stage, only the
15:13:48yield of mutant rice has doubled. It has
15:13:50increased from 40 gene to 80 gene. If we
15:13:53use it sparingly, it can last for a
15:13:55month. Su Chongqing narrowed his eyes,
15:13:58pondering the matter. I've been a member
15:13:59of the Lion Corps for almost 4 years.
15:14:02Breaking through to the foundation
15:14:04establishment stage in four years is not
15:14:06considered fast. Let's just spread the
15:14:08news next spring. In this way, we can
15:14:10obtain a new second grade spirit field.
15:14:12We will then transplant both the mutated
15:14:14mother rice and the mutated daughter
15:14:16rice. Then use the green gourd and the
15:14:18vines of the fire vine to build a fence
15:14:20and enclose the inside. In addition, the
15:14:23concealment array seals off the scent.
15:14:26So, no one should be able to detect
15:14:27anything unusual. In this way, the total
15:14:30yield of two mu of ling rice each
15:14:32quarter could very likely exceed 10,000
15:14:34gene. Chapter 107 first pharmaceutical
15:14:37preparation. Topgrade labor
15:14:39strengthening pill 3/3. Chapter 107
15:14:42first time making medicine. Top grade
15:14:44labor strengthening pill 3/3. It was
15:14:47afternoon. Su Chongqing rode the large
15:14:49leaf grass towards the link core
15:14:52management office. Since I had nothing
15:14:54better to do, I decided to gather all
15:14:56the necessary ingredients for the labor
15:14:58strengthening pill. There are only three
15:15:00ways to obtain it. One, exchange points
15:15:02with the immortal sect. Two, issue
15:15:05transaction tasks. Third, purchase from
15:15:08someone who has medicinal herbs.
15:15:10Clearly, Su Chanching currently has no
15:15:12way to purchase the medicine. Therefore,
15:15:14only two other options remain.
15:15:16Regardless of the type, one must go to
15:15:18the core management office. Along the
15:15:20way, Su Chongqing saw many spirit
15:15:22farmers and spirit fields. For them, the
15:15:25third quarter planting season has only
15:15:27just begun. Less than a month ago, the
15:15:29rice seedlings in the spiritual field
15:15:31were all tender green. It looks full of
15:15:33youthful energy. Not long after, Su
15:15:36Chongqing arrived at Ping Shan and saw
15:15:38the familiar palace. Because of
15:15:40regulations, large leaf grass cannot be
15:15:42planted directly on it. Therefore, he
15:15:45could only go down to the foot of the
15:15:46mountain and then climb up the steps one
15:15:48by one. Fortunately, the mountain wasn't
15:15:50very high. When we reached the top, a
15:15:52familiar face came towards us. Who
15:15:55junior brother Su? Jang Su asked in
15:15:57surprise. Su Chongqing was also
15:15:59surprised and quickly bowed, saying,
15:16:01"Senior brother Jeang, this person
15:16:04helped me when I first joined the core
15:16:05of the spirit field. Therefore, even if
15:16:08they are cousins of Jeang, even under
15:16:10Zangir<unk>s instigation, the two ended
15:16:12their cooperation ahead of schedule. But
15:16:14Su Chongqing had no complaints about
15:16:16this person at all." Jang Su chuckled.
15:16:19Junior brother Su. It's been a year
15:16:21since we last met, hasn't it? He
15:16:23couldn't help but look him up and down.
15:16:25A year later, the person in front of me
15:16:27looks exactly the same as when he first
15:16:29arrived. He was dressed in a formal
15:16:31white disciples robe. He was wearing a
15:16:33brown conicle hat. He had an honest and
15:16:35simple appearance. Su Chongqing nodded.
15:16:38Yes. At this moment, Jang Su warmly
15:16:41stepped forward and put a hand on his
15:16:43shoulder. Junior Brother Su, the
15:16:44medicinal herbs in my spiritual field
15:16:47are about to ripen. Would you like to
15:16:48come and help? Su Chongqing paused for a
15:16:51moment, then hesitated before saying,
15:16:53"But Jeang Suin understood immediately
15:16:56and said,"My cousin Jang Heir has been
15:16:58missing for more than half a year. In
15:17:00fact, everyone thought he was dead. If
15:17:02Jeang were still alive out of
15:17:04consideration for their relatives, he
15:17:06definitely won't seek a second
15:17:08collaboration with Su Chongqing. But now
15:17:10with Jeangir<unk>s fate unknown, it's
15:17:13naturally irrelevant. It's better to
15:17:14hire someone you already know than
15:17:16someone you don't know well. Su
15:17:18Chongqing did not reply upon hearing
15:17:20this. Instead, he looked surprised and
15:17:22asked, "Jangir still hasn't been found."
15:17:24Jean Su shook her head. I guess it's
15:17:26gone. Su Chongqing thought to himself.
15:17:29It would be a miracle if we could find
15:17:31it. Let's not talk about him anymore.
15:17:33Jeang Su didn't want to waste time on a
15:17:35dead man, so he extended an invitation.
15:17:37Junior brother Su, would you be willing
15:17:39to cooperate with your senior brother
15:17:41again? Well, as you know, I'm helping
15:17:44senior brother Leing, so there might be
15:17:46a time conflict. Su Chongqing didn't
15:17:48agree directly, but hesitated slightly.
15:17:50Jeang Su nodded quickly. I understand. I
15:17:53understand. As a core disciple, Leing
15:17:56will definitely help him first. If
15:17:58Junior brother has time, helping senior
15:18:00brother shouldn't be a problem, right?
15:18:02Of course, the pay will be more than
15:18:04before. Such Chanqing had been waiting
15:18:06for these words, so he grinned and said,
15:18:09"As long as the time doesn't conflict,
15:18:11I'm of course willing to help my senior
15:18:13brother harvest the spiritual plants."
15:18:15"Good." Jeang Su<unk>s eyes lit up, and
15:18:17he immediately took out one of his
15:18:19communication talismans and handed it
15:18:21over. I will let you know in advance
15:18:23when I need your help, Junior Brother.
15:18:25Su Chongqing quickly took it. Okay.
15:18:28Then, Jean Su patted him on the shoulder
15:18:30and walked down the steps. Su Chongqing
15:18:32looked at the other person's bulky back
15:18:34and seemed to be deep in thought. I have
15:18:36a feeling that this person's attitude
15:18:38has changed. Previously, the
15:18:40hierarchical relationship between
15:18:41superiors and subordinates was clearly
15:18:43perceptible. He appeared to be smiling,
15:18:46but there was no sign of intimacy in his
15:18:48eyes. But this time is different. Their
15:18:50eyes, attitude, and tone all became very
15:18:53polite. There was even a hint of
15:18:55ingratiation. Afterwards, Su Chongqing
15:18:58put Jeang Su<unk>s communication
15:18:59talisman into his small storage bag and
15:19:01turned to walk towards the palace.
15:19:03Before long, all the medicinal materials
15:19:06needed to brew the labor and vitality
15:19:08pill were purchased. After greeting old
15:19:10man Hua, he left without stopping and
15:19:12returned to his wooden house. The
15:19:14medicinal materials are now ready. Next,
15:19:17all you need to do is learn how to make
15:19:19the labor and vitality pill. Therefore,
15:19:21he took out the prescription and began
15:19:23to read it in depth. Not long after the
15:19:26attribute panel changed. Introduction to
15:19:28ljwang pills. Effect one, energy boost
15:19:31plus 10%. Effect two, hunger minus 10%.
15:19:35Should I sacrifice 6 years of my
15:19:37lifespan to upgrade languin to the level
15:19:40of master? Yes, Su Chongqing agreed
15:19:43decisively. Various experiences,
15:19:46techniques, and insights regarding
15:19:48luwang pills have emerged. In the
15:19:50process of absorption, one gradually
15:19:52understands, becomes proficient and
15:19:55ultimately masters it completely
15:19:56remaining lifespan for 112 years. The
15:20:00miraculous effect of ljwang pills.
15:20:02Effect one, energy boost plus 30%.
15:20:06Effect two, increasesqi and blood by
15:20:0810%. Effect three, hunger minus 40%.
15:20:12Special effects, long-term use can
15:20:14enhance physical fitness. Because it is
15:20:16the most common type of pill, its
15:20:18effects are not remarkable. Even if you
15:20:20reach the master level and activate
15:20:22special effects, it only enhances your
15:20:25physical constitution. This might not
15:20:26mean much to Such Chongqing. But for
15:20:29those independent cultivators who hunt
15:20:30monsters every day, having this on you
15:20:33can not only relieve fatigue, but also
15:20:35boost your energy. One pill is all you
15:20:37need to eat for the whole day. And most
15:20:39importantly, with it, you can last
15:20:41longer than others when you're escaping.
15:20:43In other words, the chances of survival
15:20:45are greatly increased. Interesting. Su
15:20:48Choning chuckled. He immediately took
15:20:50out everything he needed from the small
15:20:51storage bag. Each is a decoction pot, a
15:20:54stone mill for crushing medicinal herbs,
15:20:57100 kg of common wild honey for common
15:21:00medicinal herbs, 5-year-old jinseng, a
15:21:03stragalus membranatius that has been
15:21:04aged for 3 years. 2-year-old yams,
15:21:07licorice root that has been grown for
15:21:09one year. The ratio is one mace of
15:21:12jinseng, two chien of estragalus, one
15:21:14chen of yam, two chien of licorice. This
15:21:17is just for practice, so there isn't
15:21:19much of it. Such chonqing immediately
15:21:21began cleaning the medicinal herbs.
15:21:23Place it in clean spring water. Use a
15:21:26soft brush to remove any residue from
15:21:28the surface. Next, slice it with a
15:21:30knife. Then it is put into a stone mill
15:21:32and ground into powder. Then use a sie
15:21:35to remove the impurities and coarse
15:21:37powder. Once prepared, put it into a
15:21:39decoction pot and boil it. This step is
15:21:41crucial and tests one's control over the
15:21:44spirit fire. If it were the previous su
15:21:46chonqing, he definitely wouldn't have
15:21:48been able to handle it. It's very likely
15:21:50that all the medicinal herbs will be
15:21:51charred. It might even blow up the stove
15:21:54again. Fortunately, I learned the fiery
15:21:56cooking method and even reached the
15:21:58highest level. Therefore, their control
15:22:00over the spirit fire has become
15:22:02extremely meticulous. Which place has a
15:22:04high temperature? Which place has a low
15:22:06temperature? They can anticipate
15:22:08problems in advance and take immediate
15:22:10remedial action. Once it becomes a
15:22:12liquid before it cools down, quickly add
15:22:14honey to bind it together. It gradually
15:22:16transformed from a pool of brown liquid
15:22:18into a lump resembling a dough ball.
15:22:21Only at this point is the first step
15:22:23truly complete. Let's move on to the
15:22:25second step. Place it in the mold and
15:22:27roll it up and down while pressing it
15:22:29firmly. It wasn't until it turned into
15:22:31tiny pills that it was truly over.
15:22:33Through Su Chongqing<unk>s tireless
15:22:34efforts, a total of four labor
15:22:36strengthening pills were obtained, each
15:22:38weighing approximately seven grams. And
15:22:40without exception, they were all of the
15:22:43highest quality. Chapter 108, Helping
15:22:45Jeang Su Harvest. Comparing
15:22:47Transportation Tools 1/3. Chapter 108.
15:22:50Helping Jeang Su harvest compared to
15:22:53transportation tools. 1/3. Looking at
15:22:55the four round and plump pills. Su
15:22:57Chongqing used his right thumb and
15:22:59forefinger to pick up the leftmost one.
15:23:01It was thrown directly into the mouth
15:23:03and chewed carefully. Although it's
15:23:05small, it has a very firm texture. It's
15:23:08quite sweet, not just a little bit, but
15:23:10very sweet. The sweetness of licorice
15:23:12even overpowers the sweetness of honey.
15:23:15As the number of chews increases, the
15:23:17bitter taste of jinseng gradually
15:23:19emerges. It's sweet at times and bitter
15:23:21at others with a very layered flavor.
15:23:23It's not greasy at all. Instead, it
15:23:26leaves a refreshing herbal scent in your
15:23:28mouth. As expected of the premium labor
15:23:30strengthening pill, the taste is indeed
15:23:33excellent. As the body's chi and blood
15:23:35increase, the person feels exceptionally
15:23:37energetic. As for whether it alleviates
15:23:39the feeling of hunger, I haven't
15:23:41experienced it yet. As a cultivator, one
15:23:43doesn't need to eat or drink every day.
15:23:46Even if they don't eat for several days,
15:23:48there won't be any problems. Su
15:23:50Chongqing nodded slightly. It's all
15:23:52right. But if top grade pills enter the
15:23:54market, even in a small market for
15:23:56independent cultivators, it will attract
15:23:58the attention of some people. Therefore,
15:24:00if they really intend to sell luang
15:24:02pills, the frequency and quantity of
15:24:04using top quality items should never be
15:24:06too frequent. The best approach is
15:24:09actually to let it happen only
15:24:10occasionally. Most of the time, it's
15:24:12enough to just sell highquality labor
15:24:14strengthening pills. Of course, this was
15:24:16not a difficult task for Su Chongqing.
15:24:18After all, he had elevated Lz Wangwin's
15:24:21control over it to a master level. The
15:24:23quality and quantity depend entirely on
15:24:25my mood. As for the remaining three, Su
15:24:28Chongqing decided to keep them for
15:24:29later. Therefore, in the time that
15:24:31followed, besides completing his daily
15:24:33routine, he also, there's one more thing
15:24:36to do, refined the labor strengthening
15:24:38pill. The quality is mostly controlled
15:24:40at the high level with a few exceptional
15:24:42pieces occasionally. As for the worst
15:24:44quality, there wasn't a single one. It's
15:24:46not that it's impossible, but it's
15:24:48completely unnecessary. Not to mention
15:24:50that there are too many on the market.
15:24:52The key issue is that the returns are
15:24:54very low. Since the intention is to
15:24:56sell, it is essential to highlight one's
15:24:59own advantages. For example, selling
15:25:01only highquality labor strengthening
15:25:03pills is a great promotional gimmick. A
15:25:06few days later, at noon, Su Chongqing
15:25:08had just finished lunch. Jang Hi, Wong
15:25:11Wong, and Pearl Chicken were sitting
15:25:13under the popppler tree, enjoying the
15:25:15breeze. Suddenly, a slight vibration
15:25:17came from the small storage bag. Su
15:25:19Chongqing took out a communication
15:25:21talisman that was flashing with
15:25:23spiritual light. Junior Brother Su, it's
15:25:25me, Jang Su. So, it's Senior
15:25:27Brotherhang. What's the matter? You
15:25:30haven't forgotten what we talked about a
15:25:31few days ago, have you? I remember now.
15:25:34I need to help you harvest the medicinal
15:25:35herbs. Yes. Do you have time now? Yes,
15:25:38there are. But don't worry, your senior
15:25:41brother will definitely not treat you
15:25:42unfairly. Harvesting 1 acre of spirit
15:25:45field will earn you 30 low-grade spirit
15:25:47stones or 30 caddies of highquality
15:25:49spirit rice from a second grade spirit
15:25:51field. But then again, since my senior
15:25:54brother needs help, I certainly can't
15:25:56refuse. I'll go over right now. Su
15:25:58Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up as he put
15:26:00down Jang Su<unk>s communication
15:26:02talisman. If I remember correctly, I
15:26:04helped them harvest medicinal herbs a
15:26:06year ago. Only 10 catties of highquality
15:26:08spiritual rice can be produced from one
15:26:10moo of spiritual field. Unexpectedly,
15:26:13the rewards are so generous now.
15:26:15Immediately, Su Chongqing patted Wong
15:26:18Wong<unk>s forehead, and when it turned
15:26:19its head with a puzzled look, he
15:26:21immediately instructed, "I'm going out
15:26:23to make money. You all stay at home and
15:26:25take good care of the spirit field." He
15:26:27then got up and stepped out of the
15:26:28shade. Then he summoned the large leaf
15:26:30grass and immediately flew towards Jeang
15:26:33Su<unk>s spirit field. They arrived
15:26:35shortly afterward only to find the other
15:26:37party already waiting at the door.
15:26:39However, this time he was alone. The
15:26:42previous Dowist partner did not appear.
15:26:44Looking at the large leaf grass with its
15:26:46four leaves spinning around, Jang Su
15:26:48said in surprise. Junior brother is
15:26:51amazing. You actually use the large leaf
15:26:53grass for transportation. Of course, on
15:26:56the surface, it was praising Su
15:26:58Chongqing. Actually, the first person I
15:27:00thought of was Leing. Ordinary spirit
15:27:02farmers simply don't have that much
15:27:04spirit rice and spirit stones. The only
15:27:07means of transportation available for
15:27:08purchase are flying paper cranes and
15:27:10land-based mythical beasts. Although
15:27:12large leaf grass is not rare, it is not
15:27:15common either. Given Su Chongqing<unk>s
15:27:17abilities, it would be almost impossible
15:27:19for him to use it within 4 years. I
15:27:21reckon it's related to Leing. Su
15:27:23Chongqing controlled the large leaf
15:27:25grass to land, then asked with a smile.
15:27:28Senior brotherhang, why are you all
15:27:30alone? Jeang Su paused for a moment,
15:27:32then explained, "My Daist partner has
15:27:35some family matters to attend to and has
15:27:37been away from the immortal sect for
15:27:38some time. The journey there and back is
15:27:41very long, and he probably won't be back
15:27:43for another month." "I see," Su
15:27:45Chongqing said in realization. Jeang Su
15:27:48nodded. As you know, although we are
15:27:50cultivators, we can't just let go of our
15:27:53feelings for our families. Su Chongqing
15:27:55asked non-committally. Then, which acre
15:27:58should I harvest? Jeang Su extended her
15:28:00right index finger and swept it across
15:28:02the 10 acres of spirit fields. All of
15:28:05them. Upon hearing this, Su
15:28:07Chongqing<unk>s eyes widened in
15:28:08disbelief. Me alone? He asked. Jeang Su
15:28:12smiled slightly. No one else is as
15:28:14reliable as my junior brother. Hearing
15:28:16the other party's rather flattering
15:28:18words, Su Chongqing understood. It seems
15:28:20the other party intends to use this
15:28:22method to mend the rift in their
15:28:24relationship. He might even want to
15:28:26establish a connection with Leing by
15:28:27through his own efforts. However, this
15:28:29is not necessarily a bad thing for Such
15:28:31Chongqing. 10 acres of spiritual fields
15:28:34with so many spiritual plants. To put it
15:28:37mildly, add at least several decades to
15:28:39your lifespan. You can also obtain three
15:28:41mid-grade spirit stones from the other
15:28:43party. Yes, Su Chongqing wants spirit
15:28:45stones this time, not spirit rice since
15:28:48they don't plan to participate in the
15:28:50formal disciple competition. That must
15:28:52be based on self-interest. 30 caddies of
15:28:54second grade spiritual rice were
15:28:56produced from the spiritual field,
15:28:58yielding highquality spiritual rice. At
15:29:00most, it would cost 25 low-grade spirit
15:29:03stones. All things considered, choosing
15:29:05Lingi is a bit of a loss. At this
15:29:07moment, Zang Su moved a table over and
15:29:10placed a pot of hot tea on it. Seeing
15:29:12this, Su Chongqing asked in confusion,
15:29:14"Senior brother, what's wrong?" Jean Su
15:29:17replied, "I have to go out for a bit and
15:29:19won't<unk>t be back until tonight. If
15:29:21you're thirsty, have some tea." Su
15:29:23Chongqing immediately understood. Then
15:29:26Jang Su gave a detailed introduction to
15:29:27the ten moo of spiritual fields.
15:29:30Different spiritual fields are planted
15:29:32with different spiritual plants.
15:29:34Therefore, the harvesting methods also
15:29:36differ. Some only require the
15:29:37statements. Some things must be started
15:29:39from the root. If it were Su Chonqing a
15:29:41year ago, he would definitely be a
15:29:43little confused. But things are
15:29:45different now. At least he has reached
15:29:47the foundation establishment stage.
15:29:49Moreover, he reads various books
15:29:51whenever he has free time. I've read the
15:29:53record of a 100 tales of spirit fields
15:29:55in particular several times. He could
15:29:57recognize all the spiritual plants in
15:30:00the spiritual field without even needing
15:30:02an introduction. After finishing
15:30:04speaking, Jang Su summoned her mode of
15:30:06transportation. Upon closer inspection,
15:30:08Su Chongqing discovered it was a large
15:30:10green butterfly. Its colors are
15:30:12constantly changing. It seems that it
15:30:14will change into a certain camouflage
15:30:16color depending on the surrounding
15:30:17environment. This is clearly some kind
15:30:20of high-end mode of transportation.
15:30:22Standing on the butterflyy's back, Jang
15:30:24Su chuckled and said, "Junior Brother
15:30:26Su, I'll go ahead first. You can harvest
15:30:29slowly. No need to rush." After saying
15:30:31that, he stroed away with an air of
15:30:33nonchulence. Su Chongqing watched this
15:30:36unfold and couldn't help but twitch his
15:30:38lips. He definitely did it on purpose.
15:30:40Upon seeing that he had large leaf
15:30:42grass, he summoned an even rarer mode of
15:30:45transportation. But one has to admit
15:30:47these butterflies that constantly change
15:30:49their camouflage are truly enviable.
15:30:52Chapter 109. The pointing finger
15:30:54achieves merit. Heavenly Nirvana pill
15:30:562/3. Chapter 109. The green finger makes
15:31:00merit. Heavenly Nirvana pill 2/3. Jang
15:31:03Su leaves. Such Chanqing was the only
15:31:06one left in the entire area. Holding a
15:31:08sickle in his right hand, he arrived at
15:31:10the first acre of second grade spiritual
15:31:12field on the far left. This place grows
15:31:15a medicinal herb called blind grass,
15:31:17which looks like an enlarged version of
15:31:19foxtail grass. It is very fluffy and has
15:31:22many fine hairs. The overall length is
15:31:24about half a meter. The fur is soft. The
15:31:27wind blew creating ripples of ivory
15:31:29white. As usual, Su Chongqing first used
15:31:32his spiritual sense to survey the
15:31:34spiritual plants. Blind grass already
15:31:37matured. Abundant spiritual energy. No
15:31:40damage. Today's highlights. Tomorrow's
15:31:42best. A total of 3,033 pieces. Su
15:31:46Chonqing thought to himself, "Why don't
15:31:48I try pointing my finger at Ching Xi?"
15:31:50Although the Azure Lotus Domain can
15:31:52advance the growth time of spiritual
15:31:54plants. That means you don't have to
15:31:56wait until tomorrow, you can get the
15:31:58best quality items today. The problem is
15:32:00that doing so is pointless and will only
15:32:02cause unnecessary trouble. Conversely,
15:32:05if there were fewer blind grasses or
15:32:07just a few spiritual plants, Jang Su
15:32:09would never care, much less suspect.
15:32:11After all, it's normal to suffer losses
15:32:14during harvesting. Such Chonqing simply
15:32:16used his pointing green finger technique
15:32:18to harvest the crops at the same time.
15:32:20Harvesting one highquality blind grass
15:32:23will increase its lifespan by 7 days.
15:32:26Harvesting one highquality blind grass
15:32:28will increase its lifespan by 7 days.
15:32:31Harvesting one highquality blind grass
15:32:33will increase its lifespan by 7 days.
15:32:36Because the pointing finger technique is
15:32:38required, the harvesting time is
15:32:40slightly extended. Furthermore, not a
15:32:42single one of the more than 3,000 blind
15:32:45grasses mutated. A probability of one in
15:32:47a thousand is extremely low.
15:32:49Fortunately, the lifespan obtained from
15:32:51this harvest is satisfactory. How many?
15:32:54A full 58 years. After harvesting the
15:32:57first acre of spiritual field, one gains
15:32:59a lifespan of over 50 years. This is
15:33:02definitely a great start. 58 years plus
15:33:05412 years equals 470 years. Such
15:33:09Choning's lifespan is now approaching
15:33:11500 years. He walked out of the
15:33:13spiritual field and went to the table to
15:33:15pour himself a cup of tea. He took a
15:33:17satisfying sip and then went down to the
15:33:19second acre of spiritual field. This
15:33:21time the spiritual plant is called the
15:33:23pointed tail maple. A quick scan with my
15:33:25spiritual sense revealed it to be of
15:33:27high quality again. However, this time
15:33:30there were only 305 plants. This thing
15:33:32is larger than the blind grass, so there
15:33:34are not many of them. Such Chonqing used
15:33:37his pointing green finger technique
15:33:39while harvesting with a sickle. Harvest
15:33:41one premium pointed tail maple tree. its
15:33:44lifespan increases by 7 days. Cumulative
15:33:47lifespan plus 5 years. The third moo of
15:33:50spiritual land, harvest one premium
15:33:52eggplant and its lifespan will increase
15:33:54by 7 days. Cumulative lifespan plus 28
15:33:58years. The fourth moo of spiritual land,
15:34:01harvesting one strain of highquality
15:34:03white round mushroom increases its
15:34:05lifespan by 7 days. Cumulative lifespan
15:34:08plus 19 years. The fifth move of
15:34:10spiritual land. Harvesting one
15:34:12highquality blackhearted grass will
15:34:15increase its lifespan by 7 days.
15:34:17Cumulative lifespan plus 21 years. By
15:34:20afternoon, Su Chongqing had secured five
15:34:23moo of spiritual land. The total
15:34:25lifespan of the harvested crops is 131
15:34:28years. Unfortunately, none of them
15:34:30mutated. Such Chanqing took out a
15:34:33premium health-enhancing pill and
15:34:34without chewing it, swallowed it with
15:34:36the cold tea. Before long, his energy
15:34:39and physical strength were restored to
15:34:40some extent. Looking at the remaining 5
15:34:43acres of spiritual fields, he did not
15:34:45feel tired. On the contrary, they felt a
15:34:48strong sense of satisfaction. Although
15:34:50the spiritual plant wasn't his own, but
15:34:52the increased lifespan is. The more you
15:34:54harvest, the more you increase. Today,
15:34:57its lifespan has officially exceeded 500
15:34:59years. It even reached 543 years. It
15:35:03should be noted that Su Chongqing still
15:35:05has 5 acres of spiritual fields that
15:35:07have not been harvested. Adding another
15:35:1060 years shouldn't be a problem, right?
15:35:12Think about it. A cultivator in the
15:35:14foundation establishment stage. Their
15:35:16lifespan not only surpasses that of
15:35:18people in the same realm, they are even
15:35:20comparable to cultivators in the golden
15:35:22core stage. After resting for a while,
15:35:24Su Chongqing headed towards the sixth
15:35:26moo of spiritual field. Harvesting one
15:35:29highquality firetail grass will increase
15:35:31its lifespan by 7 days. Cumulative
15:35:34lifespan plus 31 years. Ding. Suddenly,
15:35:38a familiar voice rang out. Such
15:35:40Chongqing immediately looked at the last
15:35:42firetail grass. Then I saw it begin to
15:35:44change. The top originally resembled a
15:35:47burning rat's tail. Now it has actually
15:35:49turned into a shape similar to a
15:35:51feather. The surface also features
15:35:53extremely complex patterns. Fire
15:35:55elemental energy began to gather around.
15:35:58Before long, the mutant firetail grass
15:36:01emitted a scorching aura. Su Chonqing
15:36:03had long ago used his spiritual sense to
15:36:06imprint the contents of books, including
15:36:08the linkon by Wenlu, into his mind.
15:36:11Therefore, the mutated firetail grass
15:36:13was quickly identified. Its current name
15:36:15is very beautiful phoenix feather.
15:36:18Although it's not a real phoenix
15:36:19feather, but this thing contains an
15:36:21extremely strong fire elemental energy.
15:36:24Moreover, it is one of the main
15:36:25medicinal ingredients of Nirvana pill.
15:36:28As is well known, elixirs are classified
15:36:30into inferior, superior, and top grade
15:36:32varieties. Elixir formulas like
15:36:35cultivation techniques are divided into
15:36:37levels. Low rank, high rank, earth rank,
15:36:40heaven rank, immortal rank. Nirvana pill
15:36:43is a heavenly rank pill formula and it
15:36:45is extremely rare. As long as there is a
15:36:47breath left, one can bring the dead back
15:36:49to life and heal the wounded. Because
15:36:52such rare items are seldom seen on the
15:36:54market. Therefore, the specific price is
15:36:56currently unknown. Fortunately, it is
15:36:58certain that one Phoenix feather can be
15:37:00sold for 3,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
15:37:03After all, the rarer something is, the
15:37:05higher its price. Besides, it's a
15:37:07life-saving device. Su Chongqing raised
15:37:10an eyebrow. Even ordinary mutated
15:37:12spiritual plants cannot be mentioned,
15:37:14let alone such a rare mutated spiritual
15:37:17plant to Jeang Su. After all, the
15:37:19spiritual plant had matured. The
15:37:21probability of mutation is almost zero.
15:37:24The other party must have already found
15:37:26out before leaving. If this were to be
15:37:28revealed, at the very least, this
15:37:30phoenix feather would cause their
15:37:32relationship to deteriorate
15:37:33significantly. In severe cases, those
15:37:36who know. After all, this thing is
15:37:38extremely valuable. Even brothers can
15:37:41turn against each other, let alone
15:37:42strangers. Immediately, Su Chongqing
15:37:45aimed his sickle at the phoenix feather
15:37:47and swung it down fiercely. Harvesting
15:37:49one mutated phoenix feather, increase
15:37:51his lifespan by 1 year, then put it into
15:37:54another storage bag. Without hesitation,
15:37:56he walked toward the seventh moo of
15:37:58spiritual field. Harvesting one premium
15:38:01variegated lotus flower increases its
15:38:03lifespan by 7 days. Cumulative lifespan
15:38:06plus 8 years. The eighth moo of
15:38:09spiritual land. Harvesting one
15:38:11highquality climbing vine will increase
15:38:13its lifespan by 7 days. Cumulative
15:38:16lifespan plus 13 years. The ninth moo of
15:38:19sacred land. Harvesting one highquality
15:38:21umbrella vegetable plant increases its
15:38:24lifespan by 7 days. Cumulative lifespan
15:38:27plus 22 years. Soon only the 10th moo of
15:38:30spirit field remained. Such Chonqing
15:38:33recognized the spiritual plants inside
15:38:35at a glance. This is the puan fruit. one
15:38:38of the materials specifically used to
15:38:40refine the foundation building pill.
15:38:42Prices are usually high. Now it's even
15:38:44more incredible. Jang Su was already at
15:38:46the foundation establishment stage, so
15:38:48he definitely didn't need it. The formal
15:38:50disciple grand competition is less than
15:38:53a year away. Many people want to take
15:38:55this opportunity to make a quick buck.
15:38:57If you break through to the foundation
15:38:58establishment stage, your ranking will
15:39:00not only improve after the competition,
15:39:03the rewards will be even more generous.
15:39:05Such Chanqing pondered. Next year, after
15:39:08I obtain my second acre of grade 2
15:39:10spirit field, I might be able to grow
15:39:12some cheap cultivating fruits to sell
15:39:14for money. The only problem is you need
15:39:16connections within the alchemy pavilion.
15:39:18Then he swung the sickle in his hand
15:39:20again. Harvest one premium pay you fruit
15:39:23and its lifespan is increased by 7 days.
15:39:26Cumulative lifespan plus 17 years.
15:39:29Chapter 1, 10, a lifespan of 600 years.
15:39:32Sunping's invitation 3/3. Chapter 110
15:39:36lifespan of 600 years. Sun pungi invites
15:39:393/3 10 acres of spiritual fields. All
15:39:42the spiritual plants have been
15:39:43harvested. The cumulative increase in
15:39:45lifespan is 223 years. The current total
15:39:49lifespan is 635 years. Such Chongqing
15:39:53was merely a foundation establishment
15:39:55stage cultivator with a wood elemental
15:39:57root. However, in terms of lifespan, it
15:40:00is no different from that of the golden
15:40:01course stage. The sky grew completely
15:40:04dark. The enormous moon shone with a
15:40:06bright light. The spirit fields, freshly
15:40:08harvested, were unusually quiet at this
15:40:11moment. There was neither the noisy
15:40:13chirping of insects. There was no
15:40:15continuous croaking of frogs. The
15:40:17tranquil atmosphere allowed Su Chongqing
15:40:19to relax completely. He sat at the
15:40:21table, placed the cooled tea in his left
15:40:23palm, and slightly activated the fire
15:40:26elemental power in his dantion. In an
15:40:28instant, the cold tea boiled again. Then
15:40:31Su Chongqing drank the steaming hot tea
15:40:33while waiting for Jeang Sui to return.
15:40:35Time passed by second by second. The
15:40:38night breeze grew increasingly gentle
15:40:40because it was autumn. There was a
15:40:41chilly desolate feeling in the air. Um
15:40:44Such Chongqing seemed to sense something
15:40:46and immediately looked up into the sky.
15:40:49In the dim light, something seemed to be
15:40:51rapidly approaching. Even with the
15:40:53moonlight shining through, it was still
15:40:54impossible to see clearly. It is almost
15:40:57impossible to distinguish with the naked
15:40:59eye. The traces can only be barely
15:41:01detected through spiritual sense. Junior
15:41:03brother Su. Suddenly, Zang Su<unk>s
15:41:06voice rang out from above. Su Chongqing
15:41:08suddenly realized that the other party
15:41:10had returned. However, Jang Su appeared
15:41:13to be semi-transparent. Only when it
15:41:15leaves its mode of transportation, that
15:41:17is the back of the large butterfly that
15:41:19constantly changes its camouflage, is it
15:41:21fully revealed. Su Chongqing immediately
15:41:24stepped forward to greet him. Jang Su
15:41:26glanced at the spirit field and saw that
15:41:28all the spirit plants had been harvested
15:41:30and were neatly arranged. His smile
15:41:32became even brighter. As expected of my
15:41:35junior brother, "You can finish it all
15:41:36in half a day. If it were someone else,
15:41:39it would take at least 2 or 3 days." Su
15:41:42Chongqing smiled slightly. Since I'm
15:41:44helping my senior brother harvest, then
15:41:46I, as his junior brother, must put in
15:41:48the effort. Upon hearing this, Jang
15:41:50Su<unk>s eyes showed even greater
15:41:52satisfaction. He then took out some food
15:41:54from his storage bag and introduced it,
15:41:56saying, "Junior brother, you've worked
15:41:59hard. This is a medicinal meal I brought
15:42:01from the alchemy pavilion. It not only
15:42:03contains abundant spiritual energy, but
15:42:05can also repair bodily damage. You
15:42:08should try it." Such Choning<unk>s eyes
15:42:10lit up. Although I took a premium
15:42:11health-boosting pill, I don't feel
15:42:13hungry right now. You could even say
15:42:15they're very energetic. But if it's free
15:42:17medicinal food, why not take it?
15:42:19Moreover, this was something Jeang Su
15:42:21had specially brought for him from the
15:42:22alchemy pavilion. He immediately took it
15:42:25and began to eat heartily. You know
15:42:27what? It's a bit cold, but it's very
15:42:29delicious. A large bowl of high-quality
15:42:31glutenous rice cooked into a porridge
15:42:33with goji berries and lily bulbs. The
15:42:36aroma of rice blends with the fragrance
15:42:38of medicinal herbs, creating a layered
15:42:40flavor profile. The rice porridge is
15:42:42sweet but not greasy and soft and
15:42:45smooth. Bright red goji berries. Each
15:42:48one is plump and juicy. Take a bite and
15:42:50the sweet juice will burst out. There
15:42:52was also a pot of angelica ginger and
15:42:54mutton soup. Although ginger is spicy,
15:42:57it can dispel cold. It is perfect for
15:42:59consumption in autumn and winter. The
15:43:01mutton soup was delicious and flavorful.
15:43:04The aroma of mutton filled my nose the
15:43:06moment it entered my mouth. The lamb is
15:43:08tender and springy. The oily parts melt
15:43:11in your mouth. As he ate, Su Chongqing
15:43:13felt a warm current surging in his
15:43:15stomach. Their complexions became
15:43:17exceptionally rosy. This medicinal
15:43:19cuisine comes from the alchemy pavilion
15:43:21and its effects are indeed amazing.
15:43:24While Su Chongqing was eating, Jang Su
15:43:26used her spiritual sense to envelop all
15:43:28the spiritual plants. He had learned
15:43:30everything before leaving. How many?
15:43:32What quality? Whether it is mature or
15:43:35not, is it damaged? I know it perfectly
15:43:37well. Although it is said that one
15:43:39should trust those one employs and not
15:43:41employ those one distrusts, but we can't
15:43:43let ourselves suffer a loss.
15:43:45Fortunately, the quantity and quality
15:43:47are not significantly different from
15:43:49before we left. It's even better than I
15:43:51imagined. I'm done eating. Before long,
15:43:53Su Chongqing finished preparing all the
15:43:55medicinal dishes. The wolf berry and
15:43:58lily porridge and the angelica, ginger,
15:44:00and mutton soup were eaten clean. There
15:44:02was nothing left in the bowl. Jang Su
15:44:04said with a smile, "Junior Brother Su,
15:44:07you've worked hard. This is the reward
15:44:08we agreed on beforehand." He immediately
15:44:11handed over three mid-grade spirit
15:44:13stones. Su Chongqing quickly took it.
15:44:16Thank you for your help, senior brother.
15:44:18I will remember it. Hearing this, Jang
15:44:21Su breathed a sigh of relief and stepped
15:44:23forward, saying, "Junior brother Su,
15:44:25we<unk>ll have plenty of opportunities
15:44:27to cooperate in the future. And if you
15:44:29need any help from your senior brother,
15:44:31just ask. Don't hesitate." Su
15:44:33Choning<unk>s eyes lit up, and he
15:44:35immediately said, "Junior brother wants
15:44:37to buy some pills, but he doesn't know
15:44:39anyone at the alchemy pavilion and is
15:44:41afraid of being ripped off." Jang Su
15:44:43asked curiously, "What kind of elixir do
15:44:45you need?" Su Chongqing replied, "Junior
15:44:48Brothers cultivation level has reached
15:44:50the late stage ofQi refining. He is
15:44:52afraid that he will be stuck at theQi
15:44:54refining perfection stage and will not
15:44:56be able to make any further progress.
15:44:58Therefore, he wants to prepare the
15:45:00foundation establishment pill in
15:45:02advance." Jang Su waved his hand and
15:45:04said, "It's just a foundation
15:45:06establishment pill. Junior brother,
15:45:08don't worry. In a few days, when that
15:45:10friend from the alchemy pavilion is
15:45:12free, your senior brother will
15:45:13personally take you to meet him. Thank
15:45:15you, senior brother. Su Chanqing quickly
15:45:18clasped his hands and thanks. Jang Su
15:45:20patted him on the shoulder. With this,
15:45:22the relationship between the two sides
15:45:24was restored to normal. Next, the two
15:45:26drank a cup of hot tea and chatted for a
15:45:28while. Seeing that it was getting late,
15:45:31Su Chongqing got up to take his leave.
15:45:33Take care, Junior Brother. Jang Su
15:45:35personally escorted the person to the
15:45:37outside of the fence gate. Senior
15:45:39brother, get some rest. Su Chongqing
15:45:42waved his hand, then summoned the large
15:45:44leaf grass and soared into the air.
15:45:46There were no problems along the way.
15:45:48They were getting closer and closer to
15:45:50their own spiritual field. You can even
15:45:52see Wong Wong<unk>s bright green eyes.
15:45:54Suddenly, a slight vibration came from
15:45:56the storage bag. It is clear that
15:45:58someone is using communication symbols
15:46:00to try to communicate. To be honest, for
15:46:03a moment, Su Chongqing felt a tightness
15:46:05in his chest. I thought it was Jang Su.
15:46:07When they took out the communication
15:46:09token, they found that it wasn't the
15:46:11correct one. Who is it, fellow Daist
15:46:13Kai? I am Sunpong from the Loose
15:46:15Cultivator Market. Oh, it's you. What's
15:46:17up? I'm so sorry to bother you so late.
15:46:20I'm having my wedding banquet the day
15:46:21after tomorrow. Will you be coming? Such
15:46:24Chongqing was stunned. It seems the day
15:46:26has indeed come for us to go to the
15:46:28Sonichcho market. Fellow Dowist Kai, At
15:46:31Sun Pong felt uneasy. I was even more
15:46:34nervous than when I first consummated my
15:46:36marriage with my bride. After all, they
15:46:38are disciples of a celestial sect. I
15:46:41will go. Su Chongqing responded shortly
15:46:43afterward. Upon hearing this, Sunpong
15:46:45was immediately excited and quickly
15:46:47said, "Let me know when you arrive, and
15:46:49I will personally come to greet you." Su
15:46:52Chongqing responded calmly, "Okay, then
15:46:54I won't disturb your rest any longer."
15:46:56Sunpong didn't dare waste any time and
15:46:58quickly ended the call. Such Chanqing
15:47:01put down the communication talisman,
15:47:02lost in thought. Sun Pong already has a
15:47:05wife, but I'm still single. But there
15:47:07was no other way. When I had a wood
15:47:09elemental route, I only wanted to find a
15:47:11water elemental root. Daist partner. One
15:47:14can generate spiritual roots. Secondly,
15:47:16to cast the minor cloud rain technique
15:47:18on the spirit field. Now, I possess both
15:47:21wood and fire spiritual roots. Even if
15:47:23you were to look for one, it would have
15:47:25to be a wood elemental route or a dual
15:47:27water and wood elemental route. With the
15:47:30changing conditions, it's naturally
15:47:31harder to find them. Or how about we
15:47:34invite Hubu and Xiao Zu sometime and the
15:47:37three of us go take another look at the
15:47:39flower field or some blind date spot.
15:47:41Chapter 11. An unexpected encounter with
15:47:43senior brother Chu. The thousand sales
15:47:46race 1/3. Chapter 11. An unexpected
15:47:49encounter with senior brother Chu. The
15:47:51thousand sales race, one-third. Nothing
15:47:54more was said that night. The next
15:47:55morning arrived. After finishing his
15:47:57daily work, Su Chongqing would prepare
15:48:00all three meals at once. After all, once
15:48:03they go to the market town for rogue
15:48:04cultivators, they won't be able to
15:48:06return until the next day. We can't let
15:48:08our Wong Wong dogs and guinea foul go
15:48:10hungry. I'm leaving. You all stay home
15:48:12and make the best of it. Remember, don't
15:48:15wander around. Three meals a day have
15:48:17been prepared in advance, and you can
15:48:19eat anytime. After giving his
15:48:21instructions, Su Chonqing summoned the
15:48:23large leafed grass. He leaped into the
15:48:25air and quickly disappeared into the
15:48:27distance. Before long, he arrived at
15:48:30Weapon Forging Peak. Although it was
15:48:32still morning, the place was as lively
15:48:34as usual. All nine arenas were packed
15:48:36with people. Although there are no
15:48:38rewards for participating in the arena,
15:48:40but in private, many people are actually
15:48:42gambling on spirit stones. Six of the
15:48:44nine arenas have been occupied by a
15:48:46certain group. Only three arenas truly
15:48:49belong to independent players. Moreover,
15:48:51this was the result of someone
15:48:53intervening. Otherwise, I'm afraid I
15:48:55won't be able to get a single one.
15:48:56Wherever there are interests, there will
15:48:58be conflicts and disputes. In the end,
15:49:01there are only two possibilities. One is
15:49:03strength, one is connections. Such
15:49:06Chongqing glanced around and noticed
15:49:07that many of the surrounding stalls had
15:49:09signs advertising secret barbecue
15:49:11seasoning. You can tell from the smell
15:49:13that this is the barbecue seasoning I
15:49:15made before. Some people have changed
15:49:17the flavor. Some people didn't change
15:49:19the flavor. Those who didn't change
15:49:20their names must have paid a franchise
15:49:22fee of 10 mid-grade spirit stones. Those
15:49:25who changed their minds were clearly
15:49:26afraid of being held accountable for not
15:49:28paying the franchise fee. Such Chonqing
15:49:31was not surprised by this. There aren't
15:49:33many ingredients in barbecue seasoning
15:49:35to begin with, so sooner or later,
15:49:37people will figure it out. The only
15:49:38slightly difficult part is the
15:49:40proportion of the ingredients. Nowadays,
15:49:43with more and more people joining the
15:49:44franchise, the barbecue seasoning will
15:49:46inevitably be leaked. This is also the
15:49:49main reason why he brought Hubu and Xiao
15:49:51Zua with him to switch suppliers. In any
15:49:54case, the arena here will not be removed
15:49:56before the formal disciple competition.
15:49:59You can earn money every day. It's just
15:50:00a matter of how much or how little. Old
15:50:03Su, you're here. Hubuay waved. Xiao Xi
15:50:06was standing next to him. The two of
15:50:08them would come to casting peak every
15:50:09morning. One is recruiting people.
15:50:12Another is that it offers a variety of
15:50:13fresh ingredients. Such Chanqing stepped
15:50:16forward and asked, "How was your day?"
15:50:18Hub Buguay shook his head and said,
15:50:20"Fewer and fewer people are joining."
15:50:22Ziao Xi took it in stride. In the end,
15:50:25only a minority of people set up stalls.
15:50:28Su Chonqing nodded slightly. Therefore,
15:50:31we will focus on supplying ingredients
15:50:32from now on. Afterwards, Hubuay took out
15:50:35all the profits he had made that
15:50:37morning. After deducting various
15:50:39expenses, especially the cost of
15:50:41ingredients, it is roughly equivalent to
15:50:4312 mid-grade spirit stones. 10 of them
15:50:46represent one person's franchise fee.
15:50:48The remaining two are 200 lowgrade
15:50:50spirit stones. Such Chonqing took 70%
15:50:53and therefore received seven mid-grade
15:50:56spirit stones and 140 lowgrade spirit
15:50:58stones. The remaining three mid-grade
15:51:01spirit stones and 60 low-grade spirit
15:51:03stones were to be divided between the
15:51:04two of them. Su Chan put all the spirit
15:51:07stones he had received into his small
15:51:09storage bag and then said, "You guys are
15:51:11busy. I have to go out for a while. I'll
15:51:14probably be back tomorrow." "Okay."
15:51:16Hubuay and Xiao Zua nodded. Afterwards,
15:51:19Su Chongqing headed towards the sword
15:51:21pavilion. Before long, he chose a giant
15:51:23flying sword and sat cross-legged on it.
15:51:26As time went on, more and more people
15:51:28came up. It was almost time to leave.
15:51:30Just then, a shadow approached. It
15:51:33directly enveloped the entire sword
15:51:35pavilion. Everyone, including Su
15:51:37Chongqing, looked up in astonishment. It
15:51:40turned out that a huge white crane with
15:51:42a wingspan of over 20 m was standing on
15:51:44the eaves of Janga. A pair of huge black
15:51:46eyes were looking down at the crowd
15:51:48below. Isn't this Lord Hi-Chi? Hi Chi,
15:51:51could it be Chu Chio who's here? Senior
15:51:53brother Chu is here. Just when everyone
15:51:55was puzzled, a person stepped out from
15:51:57Hutchie's back. Who? It's Chu Chio.
15:52:00Although this former pre-match leader is
15:52:02now ranked fourth, but for most of his
15:52:04fellow disciples, it remains an
15:52:06insurmountable peak. Just then, Chu Chio
15:52:09spoke up. Junior Brother Sue, it's been
15:52:11a long time. Who is Junior Brother Su?
15:52:14So, senior brother Chu came here to look
15:52:16for someone. My surname is Sue. Are you
15:52:18here to see me? Just when everyone was
15:52:20puzzled, Su Chongqing stood up and said
15:52:23loudly, "Senior brother Chu, it's been a
15:52:25long time." Chuchio asked calmly, "Are
15:52:27you going out?" Su Chongqing nodded
15:52:30slightly. Yes. Junior brother is going
15:52:32to the market for rogue cultivators.
15:52:34Immediately, Chuchio waved and said,
15:52:36"I'm going out, too. We happen to be
15:52:39going the same way. Let's<unk> go
15:52:40together." "Uh" Su Chonqing hesitated
15:52:43slightly. Chuch Chio raised an eyebrow
15:52:45upon seeing this. "What?" Su Chonqing
15:52:48glanced at the huge white crane and
15:52:50chuckled dryly. "We<unk>ll have to ask
15:52:52Lord Crane 7 for permission." At this
15:52:54moment, Hi's melodious female voice,
15:52:57just like a humans, could be heard since
15:52:59Chu Cho agrees. This lord will certainly
15:53:02not refuse. Helpless, Su Chonqing walked
15:53:05up to the man with the golden spiritual
15:53:06route who was piloting the giant flying
15:53:09sword. Sorry, senior brother Chu wants
15:53:11to take me with him. How about these
15:53:13spirit stones? Gene Ling Jin dared not
15:53:16refuse and hurriedly returned the travel
15:53:18expenses, which amounted to 20 low-grade
15:53:20spirit stones. Su Chongqing put it away.
15:53:23then summoned his large leaf grass and
15:53:25quickly took to the air. Once they got
15:53:27close to Hutchie, they immediately
15:53:29jumped on top of him. After many years,
15:53:31I finally stepped onto the back of a
15:53:33white crane once again. The last one was
15:53:35Crane 19. This time, it's Crane 7. I
15:53:38have this strange feeling that my
15:53:39ranking has risen. Chuchio said to Hi,
15:53:42"Let's go." Crane 7 raised its head,
15:53:45stretched its neck, and let out a cry.
15:53:48Then with a flap of its enormous wings,
15:53:50it immediately carried the two of them
15:53:52into the air. At the same time, water
15:53:54spheres appeared all around it. They are
15:53:57all about 1 meter in size, and there is
15:53:59water flowing inside. While suspended in
15:54:01midair, Su Chongqing felt not a single
15:54:04wisp of wind. He discovered that
15:54:06everything that came near was absorbed
15:54:07by the surrounding water sphere.
15:54:09Therefore, there is no difference
15:54:11between standing on someone's back and
15:54:13standing on the ground. Suddenly, Chu
15:54:15Chio asked, "Junior Brother Su, the
15:54:17spirit rice wine you gave me last time
15:54:19is all gone. Do you have any left?" Su
15:54:22Chongqing had already guessed what the
15:54:23other party was thinking. Upon hearing
15:54:25this, he immediately took out 10 caddies
15:54:27of top grade spirit rice wine from his
15:54:29small storage bag and handed it over.
15:54:32This time, it wasn't just to attend
15:54:33Sunpangs wedding banquet. They also plan
15:54:36to open a wine shop with the Sun family
15:54:38to sell off their surplus spirit rice
15:54:40wine. Of course, what they're selling
15:54:42isn't top grade spirit rice wine. This
15:54:44thing is mainly used as a gift for
15:54:46friends or to curry favor with someone
15:54:48powerful. As for independent
15:54:50cultivators, they don't really care
15:54:51about quality. As long as it tastes
15:54:53good, that's all that matters. Good
15:54:56wine. After taking over, Chu Chio took a
15:54:58big gulp of wine and immediately felt
15:55:00refreshed. Su Chongqing asked with a
15:55:03smile. Senior brother Chu, are you also
15:55:05planning to go to the Rogue Cultivator
15:55:07Market? Chuchio put down the wine pouch,
15:55:10then shook his head and said, "No, I was
15:55:13invited to attend the Crossing the River
15:55:14Tournament, founded by Ziao Xiin Yun,
15:55:17the son of the current city lord of
15:55:18Schwanchin City, the dragon boat race."
15:55:22Su Chanching looked puzzled. He
15:55:23certainly knew about City. It is not far
15:55:26from Doning City, the market town for
15:55:28scattered cultivators. It looks like
15:55:30it's at the beach. Its current city lord
15:55:32is said to be a golden core cultivator.
15:55:35Chuchio explained, "The full name of the
15:55:37competition for crossing the river is
15:55:39the thousand sales competing for
15:55:40crossing the river water and land dharma
15:55:43assembly. Many cultivators will
15:55:44participate. If you want to go, I can
15:55:47take you with me." Chapter 112,
15:55:49comparison of various aspects. My own
15:55:51advantages 2/3. Chapter 112. Comparison
15:55:54of various aspects. My own advantages
15:55:572/3. Never mind. Never mind. Su
15:56:00Chongqing quickly waved his hand.
15:56:02It's<unk> too dangerous outside. Even
15:56:04with Chu Shio, a genius with dual
15:56:06spiritual roots protecting them, safety
15:56:09is not guaranteed. Therefore, there is
15:56:11no need to participate in this so-called
15:56:13crossing competition. Such
15:56:15Chongqing<unk>s biggest thought or
15:56:17rather his only wish. That means
15:56:19honestly farming. Cultivate immortality
15:56:21peacefully. External things are not
15:56:24important to him at this stage. All
15:56:25right, Chuch Chio said without
15:56:27pressuring him. At this moment, Su
15:56:29Chongqing asked curiously. By the way,
15:56:32does senior brother Chu know that guy
15:56:33who's ranked number one? What's his
15:56:35name? Emo something. Chuch Cho nodded
15:56:38and said, "I know him. His name is
15:56:40Masha, and his strength is terrifying.
15:56:42Fear." Such Chanqing was quite surprised
15:56:45to hear those two words from Chuch
15:56:46Chio<unk>s mouth for the first time.
15:56:48Chuchio picked up the wine flask again,
15:56:50took a big gulp, and then said in a deep
15:56:52voice, "This guy is ruthless and will
15:56:55never give up until he achieves his
15:56:56goal. He is also an extreme person."
15:56:59Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
15:57:01immediately abandoned the idea of making
15:57:03contact. If he were to provoke someone
15:57:05like that, even Lee Lingbi wouldn't be
15:57:07able to help. The two then chatted
15:57:09casually for a few minutes. The main
15:57:10focus is on the competition for formal
15:57:12disciples. Chuchio believed that his
15:57:14chances of winning first place were not
15:57:16high. Among the formal disciples who
15:57:18returned this time, there are several
15:57:20formidable individuals. That mosque was
15:57:22just one of them. Before long, Hichchi
15:57:25approached the market town for rogue
15:57:26cultivators. Such Chongqing could
15:57:28already see the iconic Doning Tree of
15:57:30Doning City. He Chi did not land, but
15:57:33stopped at the fairy that originally
15:57:35belonged to the giant flying sword.
15:57:37Goodbye, senior brother Chu. After
15:57:39greeting everyone, Su Chonqing
15:57:41immediately jumped off the crane's back.
15:57:43Chuchio thought for a moment and said,
15:57:45"If you encounter any problems, you can
15:57:47use the communication talisman to let me
15:57:49know. The distance between the two
15:57:51cities isn't far. I should be able to
15:57:53get there." Such Chanqing, of course,
15:57:56would not refuse the other party's
15:57:57kindness and readily agreed. Okay. Then,
15:58:00Hi carried Chu Chio into the air. It
15:58:03disappeared into the horizon at an
15:58:05extremely fast speed. Such Chongqing
15:58:08withdrew his gaze and couldn't help but
15:58:10mutter to himself. I didn't expect that
15:58:12this senior brother Chu is cold on the
15:58:14outside, but warm on the inside. Then,
15:58:16he left the flight dock. I randomly
15:58:18found a guest house nearby and booked a
15:58:20regular room. He disguised himself
15:58:22again, transforming from a disciple of
15:58:24the immortal sect into an ordinary,
15:58:26decadent rogue cultivator. However, they
15:58:29did not contact Sun Pong immediately.
15:58:31Instead, they followed the main street
15:58:33of the scattered cultivator market and
15:58:35began to investigate the current price
15:58:36of spirit rice. Currently, there haven't
15:58:39been any major changes. The daunting
15:58:41immortal sex prices are relatively high
15:58:44because of its official disciple
15:58:45competition. And here is the market town
15:58:47for scattered cultivators. The main
15:58:49reason is that grade two lingi rice is
15:58:52extremely rare which is why its price is
15:58:54also inflated. The current market share
15:58:56is the ratio of inferior to poor is 1
15:58:59minute and 1.6 seconds. Premium quality
15:59:02is 1 minute and 1.5 seconds. The ratio
15:59:05of the best quality to the best is 1
15:59:07minute and 1.2 seconds. It's even more
15:59:10expensive than the Dong Ting immortal
15:59:11sect. After all, things are valued for
15:59:14their rarity. However, the premium rice
15:59:16is much more affordable. The current
15:59:18market share of EP Lingi is inferior is
15:59:211 col 8. The ratio of premium to premium
15:59:24is 1:6. The best quality is 1 col 4.
15:59:28This is the main reason why many
15:59:30disciples of immortal sects would rather
15:59:31come here to exchange for rice. Within
15:59:34the immortal sect, Namsham company holds
15:59:36a monopoly on spirit rice and can
15:59:38manipulate prices at will. In the market
15:59:40town of rogue cultivators, competitors
15:59:43are everywhere. There are more than four
15:59:45shops that offer free lingmi, a type of
15:59:47rice, although the prices are relatively
15:59:49uniform. However, various preferential
15:59:52benefits will appear. After inquiring
15:59:54about the proportion of spirit rice
15:59:55today, Such Chongqing headed towards the
15:59:57place that sells pills. The market town
16:00:00for independent cultivators is very
16:00:02large. It could even be said that the
16:00:04entire Donging city is different
16:00:06regions. The things they sell are also
16:00:08different. For example, the north gate
16:00:10near the Black Forest. They sell things
16:00:12related to monsters. The elixirs and
16:00:14talismans are located near the east
16:00:16gate. Some of these shops are owned by a
16:00:18particular faction. Some are stalls set
16:00:20up by individual practitioners. Labor
16:00:23strengthening pills. Freshly made labor
16:00:25strengthening pills. The rejuvenation
16:00:27pill. The rejuvenation pill that can be
16:00:29used 10 times in one night. Would you
16:00:32like some freshly picked Mingwa grass?
16:00:34Listening to the sounds of people
16:00:35hawking their wares around me. Such
16:00:38Chongqing arrived at the stall of a
16:00:39rogue cultivator. This man only sells
16:00:42one kind of pill, the labor
16:00:43strengthening pill. A black cloth was
16:00:45laid on the ground and then many cheap
16:00:48small porcelain bottles were placed
16:00:49there. Upon seeing customers, the stall
16:00:52owner immediately said, "Five pills per
16:00:54bottle, three low-grade spirit stones
16:00:56for one bottle." Su Chongqing asked,
16:00:58"Can I take a look?" Of course. The
16:01:01stall owner immediately opened a bottle
16:01:03and poured a pill into his palm.
16:01:05However, he did not hand it over
16:01:07directly to Su Chongqing. Instead, I
16:01:09just held it in my palm. Although luan
16:01:11pills are inexpensive and are extremely
16:01:14common medicinal pills, but some people
16:01:16just love to get something for free. Or
16:01:18perhaps their hands are not clean. Such
16:01:20Chonqing squinted and carefully examined
16:01:22the luwang pill. Soon, the corner of his
16:01:25mouth twitched involuntarily. If I'm not
16:01:28mistaken, this guy's cooking skills are
16:01:29all right. But there's definitely
16:01:31something wrong with this labor
16:01:32strengthening pill. It has a yellowish
16:01:34tint and is large and round. Overall, it
16:01:37looks similar to the premium
16:01:38health-enhancing pills I made myself.
16:01:41However, upon closer inspection,
16:01:43differences can be observed, especially
16:01:45the colors. Normally, it should be more
16:01:47amber in color. The main reason is that
16:01:50honey was added, but this one definitely
16:01:52doesn't look like it has any honey
16:01:53added. Moreover, the proportion of
16:01:55licorice must be too high. It's
16:01:57definitely a health tonic without a
16:01:59doubt. But the stall owner must have
16:02:01saved costs when cooking it. Such
16:02:03Chongqing immediately looked away and
16:02:05stopped observing. Seeing this, the
16:02:07stall owner put it back into the
16:02:08porcelain bottle and then asked, "Do you
16:02:10want it?" Such Chongqing said calmly,
16:02:13"It's too expensive." "Expensive?" The
16:02:15stall owner pointed to the surrounding
16:02:17stalls and said excitedly, "Only here
16:02:19can you buy five highquality labor
16:02:21strengthening pills for three low-grade
16:02:23spirit stones." Su Chongqing curled his
16:02:26lip. Whether it's expensive or not, you
16:02:28know better than I do. Goodbye. He
16:02:30turned and left, not wanting to waste
16:02:32his time on this person. The stall owner
16:02:34spat angrily, "Huh? You poor wretch.
16:02:37Don't ask if you can't afford it." Next,
16:02:39Su Chanqing looked at several stalls
16:02:41that specialized in selling luan pills.
16:02:44They compared everything to their own.
16:02:46The quality was found to be
16:02:47inconsistent. There is only one shop
16:02:49selling pills, and because it is backed
16:02:51by a certain immortal cultivation family
16:02:53in Doning City, the quality is quite
16:02:56good. In the corner, Su Chongqing
16:02:58pondered, "Currently, there is only one
16:03:00shop in the entire LSE cultivator market
16:03:02that sells Laujwang pills, which can
16:03:04achieve high quality without saving
16:03:06costs or cutting corners. This is
16:03:08undoubtedly good news for me." But the
16:03:10people who came to the cultivators
16:03:12market today weren't there specifically
16:03:14to sell pills. Therefore, he took out
16:03:16Sunping<unk>s communication talisman
16:03:18from his small storage bag. Fellow
16:03:20Dowist Kai, I have arrived. Where are
16:03:22you? I'll send someone to meet you right
16:03:24away. No need. Just give me an address.
16:03:27I'll go there myself. Okay, I'm in Daing
16:03:30City soon. Sun Pong gave the address. Su
16:03:33Chongqing listened and remembered it,
16:03:35then disconnected the communication. Of
16:03:37course, I'll go, but we need to
16:03:39investigate further, even though we've
16:03:41cooperated with the Sun family many
16:03:43times. We can't let our guard down.
16:03:45Chapter 1 13. Son Pangs anxiety as he
16:03:48sells spirit rice wine. March 3rd.
16:03:51Chapter 113. Sun Ping's anxiety as he
16:03:53sells spirit rice wine. March 3rd. The
16:03:56Sun family. The Sun family is doing
16:03:58quite well lately. Yes, I heard that the
16:04:01patriarch Sun Rome has already broken
16:04:03through to the late foundation
16:04:05establishment stage. As Su Chongqing
16:04:08approached the Sun family mansion, he
16:04:10gathered information. In the entire
16:04:12Daing City, there are five relatively
16:04:14well-developed small cultivation
16:04:15families. They are the Leaf family, the
16:04:18Wong family, the Han family, the Sun
16:04:20family, and the Lei family. The reason
16:04:22the Sun family was able to prosper was
16:04:24because Sun rom had followed the
16:04:26administrator of Dongqing City when he
16:04:28was young who was known as the golden
16:04:30elixir master Wong. Later several more
16:04:32people in the family awakened their
16:04:34spiritual roots. Therefore, it gradually
16:04:36grew and expanded especially in the last
16:04:396 months it has made rapid progress.
16:04:42First, Sun Rome who was over 50 years
16:04:44old broke through to the late stage of
16:04:46foundation establishment. Then Sun Pong
16:04:49who was only 25 years old broke through
16:04:52to the late stage ofQi refining. In
16:04:54addition, Sun Yu, Suniang and others
16:04:57have also grown. The Sun family is now
16:04:59thriving. And right today, Sun Pong is
16:05:02about to marry Lelay Yana, the third
16:05:04daughter of Le Jia, the current head of
16:05:06the Lei family. This woman is no
16:05:08ordinary person either. She has awakened
16:05:10a fire elemental route. He has a
16:05:12considerable talent for alchemy.
16:05:14Therefore, these two companies can be
16:05:16described as a powerful alliance. Such
16:05:18choning seemed to be deep in thought. If
16:05:21I remember correctly, it's the only shop
16:05:23in the entire Sonichcho market that can
16:05:24make luan pills reach the high quality
16:05:27level. It seems that the first character
16:05:28on the plaque is a lei. Judging from the
16:05:32appearance, the Lei family made their
16:05:34fortune in the scattered cultivator
16:05:35market by brewing medicine and refining
16:05:38pills. Currently, the Sun family has a
16:05:40decent reputation. Although there have
16:05:42been things that angered the independent
16:05:44cultivators, but it's a bit better than
16:05:46the other companies. As for the address
16:05:48Sun Pong gave, it is indeed the Sun
16:05:50family's current residence. And indeed,
16:05:52the wedding banquet will be held today.
16:05:54Then let's go take a look. Such Chonqing
16:05:57no longer hesitated. Why haven't we
16:05:59heard anything yet? Sun Pong, dressed in
16:06:02his wedding attire, paced anxiously back
16:06:04and forth. The best man next to him
16:06:06chuckled and said, "The bride hasn't
16:06:08arrived yet." Sunpong glanced at the
16:06:11other person, then shook his head and
16:06:13said, "I'm not waiting for Yana." "Uh!"
16:06:15Upon hearing this, all the groomsmen
16:06:17were dumbfounded. "You, the groom, are
16:06:20waiting for someone other than the
16:06:22bride. If this gets out, it will be a
16:06:24disaster. The Lelay family will probably
16:06:26turn against us." Sunong realized there
16:06:28was something wrong with his words, so
16:06:30he explained, "I'm waiting for a very
16:06:32important friend. He's already arrived
16:06:34in Daing City, but he hasn't shown up
16:06:36yet." One of the best men wondered,
16:06:38"Could something have happened that
16:06:39caused the delay?" Sun Pong immediately
16:06:42showed a worried expression and took out
16:06:44his communication talisman. He tried
16:06:46several times, but was still unable to
16:06:48infuse his own spiritual power into it.
16:06:51After all, he dared not urge them, much
16:06:53less offend this disciple of the
16:06:55immortal sect. In the past 6 months, if
16:06:57it weren't for the thousand caddies of
16:06:59top quality spiritual rice we bought, I
16:07:01eat three meals a day in a box. It will
16:07:04probably take more than a year to break
16:07:05through to the late stage ofQi refining.
16:07:08More importantly, what if future
16:07:09children also awaken their spiritual
16:07:11roots? Perhaps through Such Chongqing,
16:07:14they can be sent to a celestial sect to
16:07:16cultivate. The future is much better
16:07:18than staying in this small scattered
16:07:20market town. Coming coming. At that
16:07:23moment, a maid servant ran in quickly.
16:07:25Sunpong asked excitedly, "Fellow Dist
16:07:28Kai has arrived." The maid looked
16:07:29bewildered upon hearing this, then
16:07:31replied, "It's the master who's back."
16:07:34Oh, Sunpong looked disappointed. The
16:07:36maid servant then said, "Master asked me
16:07:39to tell you not to worry. Put on your
16:07:40wedding dress, prepare the betroal
16:07:42gifts, and quickly lead the wedding
16:07:44procession to the lay family to pick up
16:07:46the bride." Sunprung nodded. She was
16:07:48already wearing her wedding dress. The
16:07:50betroal gifts have also been prepared.
16:07:53Nowadays, all you need to do is bring a
16:07:55wedding procession to pick up the bride.
16:07:57The overall style and customs of the
16:07:59wedding are actually quite similar to
16:08:01those of ordinary weddings. The only
16:08:03difference is that most of the people
16:08:04attending the wedding banquet this time
16:08:06are cultivators. Therefore, the wedding
16:08:09procession also includes various modes
16:08:11of transportation. Spirit beasts cleared
16:08:13the way on the ground. Paper cranes flew
16:08:16in the sky accompanying the birds. The
16:08:18entire wedding procession consisted of
16:08:20approximately 300 people. It looked like
16:08:23a grand and imposing procession. It
16:08:25almost took up an entire street. The
16:08:27larger the family, the more they
16:08:29emphasize pomp and scale. Ordinary
16:08:31independent cultivators don't have so
16:08:33many requirements. One second their eyes
16:08:35meet, the next they're in bed together.
16:08:38They care more about feelings or the
16:08:40person they spend their lives with.
16:08:41Cultivation families, on the other hand,
16:08:44place greater emphasis on profit. To put
16:08:46it bluntly, even if the bride and groom
16:08:48don't like each other, but when it comes
16:08:50to family interests, they have to be
16:08:52together. Even if it's just a marriage
16:08:54and name only. An hour passed between
16:08:56the two trips. Sunpong and Lelay Yana
16:08:59started their wedding ceremony. There is
16:09:00still no news about Su Chongqing. This
16:09:03made Sun Pong somewhat distracted. You
16:09:05invited them to your wedding banquet.
16:09:07They've already arrived in Daing City,
16:09:09but they haven't shown up yet. I have a
16:09:11feeling that something might have
16:09:12happened. I was constantly filled with
16:09:14anxiety. After all, if something happens
16:09:16to a disciple of the immortal sect, the
16:09:18entire Sun family will be implicated.
16:09:21Suddenly, the best man shouted, "First
16:09:23bow to heaven and earth." Sun Pong
16:09:26turned around and looked outside. Just
16:09:28then, he saw a familiar face. His
16:09:30clothes and mustache were exactly the
16:09:32same as when we first met. Isn't this
16:09:34the very person I'm worried about? We've
16:09:36arrived. What a relief. Su Chongqing
16:09:39stood in the crowd, smiled at Sun Pong,
16:09:41and that was his way of greeting him,
16:09:43bowing to heaven and earth. The best man
16:09:46couldn't help but remind the groom who
16:09:48seemed a little dazed. Even the bride
16:09:50reached out and tugged at it. Uh, right,
16:09:52right, right. Sun Punk finally relaxed
16:09:54and grinned as he began to bow. The
16:09:56whole process took another half hour.
16:09:58The bride, Leana, was led to the bridal
16:10:01chamber to await the sleepless night
16:10:03ahead. The groom then began to toast
16:10:05each table of guests in turn. Before
16:10:07long, led by the best man, they arrived
16:10:10at Su Choning<unk>s table. Holding a
16:10:12wine glass, Sun Pong couldn't help but
16:10:14complain. Fellow Dowist Kai, why didn't
16:10:17you greet me when you arrived? Su
16:10:19Chongqing asked in surprise. I already
16:10:21spoke with your father. Didn't he tell
16:10:23you? Uh, I do think I did say something
16:10:25like not to worry. Sun Pong recalled
16:10:27carefully. He mistakenly thought it
16:10:29meant not to worry about the wedding.
16:10:31Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a hint
16:10:33that Su Chongqing had already arrived.
16:10:35This has caused quite a stir. Sunpong
16:10:38had been worried for a long time. Even
16:10:39on the way to pick up the bride, he was
16:10:41filled with anxiety. They were terrified
16:10:43that their joyous day would turn into a
16:10:45day of mourning for the whole family.
16:10:47All right, go about your business. Su
16:10:49Chongqing waved his hand after finishing
16:10:52his drink. Sunpong nodded. Okay, just
16:10:55tell the servant if you need anything.
16:10:57Then he and the best man walked toward
16:10:59another table. Not long after, Sun R
16:11:01approached Su Chongqing. The two left
16:11:03together and arrived at a garden behind
16:11:05the Sun family mansion. It's very quiet
16:11:08here and no one will bother us at this
16:11:10time. Son R knew the habits of the
16:11:12person in front of him. So without any
16:11:14nonsense, he immediately took out five
16:11:16mid-grade spirit stones and handed them
16:11:18over. However, what Su Chan took out was
16:11:21not spirit rice, but spirit rice wine.
16:11:23No, to be precise, it's highquality
16:11:26Lingi wine. Wine made from highquality
16:11:28glutenous rice. It's a step below the
16:11:30previous premium Lingi wine. It was
16:11:32specially brewed for the independent
16:11:34cultivators in the market town. Fellow
16:11:36Dowist Kai, "What is this?" Sun R asked
16:11:39puzzled. Such Chongqing handed it over
16:11:41with a half smile. Try it first. Sunr
16:11:44was stunned for a moment, then reached
16:11:46out and took it. He first opened the
16:11:48stopper. Instantly, a rich aroma of rice
16:11:51mixed with the fragrance of wine wafted
16:11:53out. Even before tasting it, the mere
16:11:56smell made Sun involuntarily swallow
16:11:58hard. Chapter 114. Drinking wedding wine
16:12:01during the day and brothel wine at
16:12:03night. 1-3. Chapter 114. and drinking
16:12:06wedding wine during the day and flower
16:12:08wine at night. One/3 Sun Rang picked up
16:12:11the wine bag, poured a mouthful into his
16:12:13mouth, and the sweet wine washed over
16:12:15his mouth and taste buds, making his
16:12:17eyes widen. The aroma of Lingi rice, the
16:12:20aroma of the spirit wine. The two
16:12:22aromomas blended together, creating a
16:12:25rich fragrance that even wafted from the
16:12:27mouth and nose, leaving one completely
16:12:29intoxicated by the scent. He appeared
16:12:31slightly drunk, but his mind was
16:12:33unusually excited. Their understanding
16:12:35of their own cultivation techniques has
16:12:38become more profound. Many things that I
16:12:40couldn't understand before I'm starting
16:12:42to understand little by little. Anyone
16:12:44would be completely obsessed with this
16:12:45state. Without any hesitation, Sunrang
16:12:48began gulping down mouthful after
16:12:50mouthful of food. The alcohol that
16:12:52enters the stomach releases a rich
16:12:54spiritual energy, transforming into a
16:12:57warm current that surges through the
16:12:59body, even creating a feeling of
16:13:01fullness. The wine sack contained a
16:13:03total of 10 caddies of highquality
16:13:05spirit rice wine, but Sunr forced down
16:13:08two caddies of it before reluctantly
16:13:10putting it down. Su Chonqing asked with
16:13:12a smile, "How is it?" "Delicious." Sun
16:13:15nodded, then tentatively asked, "Is this
16:13:18wine brewed by fellow Daist Kai?" Su
16:13:20Choning nodded slightly. "That's right,
16:13:23it's<unk> brewed by me." Sun Rome looked
16:13:25incredulous and couldn't help but
16:13:27exclaim, "Although this wine is just the
16:13:29most ordinary spirit rice wine, its
16:13:31flavor is incredibly complex. Its aroma
16:13:34is rich and its spiritual energy is
16:13:36concentrated. In all my years, this is
16:13:39absolutely the first time I've
16:13:40encountered such a thing." "Fellow
16:13:42Daist, you are truly a genius." A hint
16:13:45of jealousy flickered in his heart. The
16:13:47person in front of me is not only young
16:13:49but also very talented in planting.
16:13:52Nowadays, even their wine- makingaking
16:13:53skills are extremely impressive. They
16:13:55are simply amazing and versatile.
16:13:58Compared to Su Chongqing, I feel that my
16:14:00younger relatives, especially my son,
16:14:02Pong, are really pathetic. Seeing how
16:14:05much the other party liked it, Su
16:14:06Chongqing quickly got to the point. I
16:14:08plan to sell this quality of spirit rice
16:14:10wine in Daing City, but I will encounter
16:14:13a lot of trouble if I do it alone. So, I
16:14:15would like to run it with you. I'll
16:14:17provide the spirit rice wine. You can
16:14:18sell it. What are your thoughts, fellow
16:14:20Daist son? Son Rome was stunned. He
16:14:23originally thought the other party
16:14:25wanted to sell it to him. Unexpectedly,
16:14:27it turned out to be the enormous daing
16:14:29city. As expected, I underestimated the
16:14:32ambition of the immortal sect disciples.
16:14:34However, even Sun Pong loved this
16:14:37quality of spirit rice wines so much
16:14:39that those unsophisticated rogue
16:14:40cultivators would probably wear down the
16:14:42threshold. Moreover, Donging City not
16:14:45only has independent cultivators but
16:14:47also many ordinary people. Although
16:14:49these people have not awakened their
16:14:51spiritual roots, they are unable to
16:14:53cultivate immortality. However, they
16:14:56would compete to buy anything that
16:14:57cultivators liked, attempting to shorten
16:14:59the distance between them in this way.
16:15:02Sun Rome didn't think for long before
16:15:03asking, "How many kilograms can you
16:15:06provide each month, fellow Daist?" Su
16:15:08Chongqing held up five fingers on his
16:15:10right hand and blurted out at least 500
16:15:13gene. Are there many? Actually, not
16:15:15many. I inquired at the liquor store
16:15:17before. Even the lowest quality spirit
16:15:20rice wine can sell 7 or 800 caddies a
16:15:22month. Those of better quality can even
16:15:25exceed 1,000 gene, 500 kg. And this is
16:15:28just the sales volume of one company.
16:15:31However, Such Chonqing will be very busy
16:15:33from now on. Not only must we brew
16:15:35high-quality Lingi wine, we also need to
16:15:37brew the finest Lingi wine, even the
16:15:40finest yellow rice wine. The highquality
16:15:42Lingi wine is sold, hence the highest
16:15:44volume, at least 500 gene per month. The
16:15:47premium Lingi wine is mainly used as a
16:15:50gift and the quantity can be reduced to
16:15:52100 gene per month. As for the finest
16:15:54yellow rice wine I drink, unless I
16:15:56increase the scale, I can only drink
16:15:58about 10 caddies a month. But the
16:16:00biggest problem right now is actually
16:16:02Lingmi, a type of rice. Premium Ling
16:16:04rice is used to brew premium ling rice
16:16:06wine. And the rice produced in his own
16:16:09spiritual field is all top quality
16:16:11spiritual rice. Therefore, buying some
16:16:13highquality spirit rice from second
16:16:15grade spirit field from the scattered
16:16:17cultivator market every month is also a
16:16:19considerable expense. Sun R said
16:16:21thoughtfully. In the beginning, 500 gene
16:16:24was not a small amount. If you can truly
16:16:26provide a stable supply, then I son am
16:16:29willing to give it a try. Very good.
16:16:32This was exactly what Su Chongqing had
16:16:34been waiting for. Son R then pressed on.
16:16:37In that case, what percentage does
16:16:38fellow Dowist Kai intend to take? Su
16:16:41Chongqing thought for a moment and said,
16:16:43"I<unk>ll take seven. You take three."
16:16:46Son R frowned and shook his head,
16:16:48saying, "If you want to open a liquor
16:16:50store, the shop must be located on the
16:16:52busiest and most bustling street, and it
16:16:54must be exquisitly decorated. You also
16:16:57need to hire people to work there." All
16:16:59these things added up to quite a sum of
16:17:00money." Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
16:17:03asked, "How much do you think is
16:17:04appropriate?" Sun inhaled the aroma of
16:17:07wine emanating from the wine sack, took
16:17:09a deep breath, and his saliva quickly
16:17:11welled up in his mouth. He said
16:17:13earnestly. In this way, for the first 6
16:17:16months, we'll split the profits 60% to
16:17:18you and 40% to me. After 6 months,
16:17:21regardless of whether business is good
16:17:23or bad, the split will be 70% for you
16:17:26and 30% for me. How about that? Okay,
16:17:29Such Chongqing could barely accept it.
16:17:31Selling wine was just the first step for
16:17:33me into the market of rogue cultivators.
16:17:36The profits from alcohol are
16:17:37incomparable to those from elixirs.
16:17:39After all, you can drink alcohol or not.
16:17:42The lack of elixirs would be fatal,
16:17:44especially for rogue cultivators. In
16:17:46Dongqing City, the annual consumption of
16:17:48elixirs alone is terrifying. According
16:17:51to incomplete statistics, each
16:17:53independent cultivator consumes at least
16:17:55one pill every day. If it's a hunting
16:17:57team that goes out, then there are even
16:17:59more. Next, the two had a more in-depth
16:18:02conversation. The final agreement
16:18:03reached was that starting next month, Su
16:18:06Chongqing would not only have to provide
16:18:08500 gene of top-grade spirit rice, but
16:18:10also 500 gene of highquality spirit rice
16:18:13wine. As for the Sun family, the
16:18:15settlement for spirit rice is still made
16:18:17on the same day, but the settlement for
16:18:19spirit rice wine is made once a month.
16:18:21Sun also guaranteed that the liquor
16:18:23store would be renovated this month and
16:18:25would definitely be located on the most
16:18:27bustling street. Both sides have shown
16:18:29the utmost sincerity, genuinely wanting
16:18:32to cooperate rather than joking. Su
16:18:34Chongqing finally took out the spirit
16:18:36rice. This month's 500 caddies of top
16:18:39grade spirit rice. Sun Rang said with a
16:18:41smile, "It is truly an honor to have a
16:18:44partner like fellow Daist Kai. If the
16:18:46spirit rice wine becomes a hit, it can
16:18:48generate a lot of revenue every month.
16:18:51Even without relying on the Lelay family
16:18:53who specialize in alchemy, the Sun
16:18:55family will rise to prominence
16:18:56completely. All of these changes began
16:18:59when he met Su Chongqing. Let's start
16:19:01the wedding night festivities. The bride
16:19:03and groom are so embarrassed. It seems
16:19:06brother son won't be able to sleep
16:19:07tonight. This Lelay Yana is one of the
16:19:0910 most beautiful women in Donging City.
16:19:12Just then, the sounds of wedding night
16:19:14festivities came from the other side. It
16:19:17looks like today's wedding banquet is
16:19:18coming to an end. Seeing this, Su
16:19:21Chongqing shrugged. I attended the
16:19:23wedding, drank the wedding wine, gave
16:19:25them the spirit rice, and even the
16:19:26cooperation is almost finalized. I have
16:19:29to go now. Let me see you off. Sun Pong
16:19:32wanted to persuade him to stay, but he
16:19:34also knew the other person's
16:19:35temperament. Not long after, Su
16:19:38Chongqing left the Sun family. Although
16:19:40it was already night, it was not yet
16:19:42midnight, and the entire Donging city
16:19:44was bustling with activity. Things that
16:19:46are invisible during the day emerge at
16:19:48night. Such Chanqing observed these
16:19:50goddy, ostentatious women and remarked,
16:19:53"Wedding banquetss are boring, but I
16:19:55haven't had a flower wine, a type of
16:19:57banquet served with flowers, in a long
16:19:59time. Let's go to invitation pavilion
16:20:01for some wine and women." Chapter 115,
16:20:04Huang Yua<unk>s cave, earth spirit route
16:20:06escape technique, 2/3. Chapter 115,
16:20:10Huang Yua's cave, Earth spirit route
16:20:12escape technique, 2/3. The biggest
16:20:14difference between Yaoang Pavilion and a
16:20:16few months ago is that the beauties
16:20:18inside have changed again. Several top
16:20:21cortisans are missing. It's unclear
16:20:22whether they were redeemed by some
16:20:24cultivator or simply passed away. The
16:20:26cortisans and dancers remained largely
16:20:28unchanged. The only ones were the child
16:20:31prostitutes. They were all complete
16:20:33strangers. Master, which floor are we
16:20:35going to? The manager was still Hungju,
16:20:37her eyes sparkling with spring and her
16:20:40smile full of warmth. Su Chongqing
16:20:42tossed two low-grade spirit stones into
16:20:44the other person's arms and said
16:20:46indifferently. Second floor. Now I am
16:20:49just one of the many independent
16:20:50cultivators in Daing City. Going to the
16:20:52third floor would easily attract
16:20:54attention. That floor is after all a
16:20:57place favored by disciples of the
16:20:58immortal sect. But there were just too
16:21:00many people on the first floor. People
16:21:02were packed together
16:21:03shoulder-to-shoulder. Therefore, the
16:21:05second floor where there are fewer
16:21:07people is undoubtedly the best choice
16:21:09for drinking with cortisans. The
16:21:11beautiful woman on this floor is only
16:21:13less attractive than the one on the
16:21:14third floor, but she has no other flaws.
16:21:17All right, immortal master, please go
16:21:19upstairs. Hungu put away the spirit
16:21:21stones, then winked at the beautiful
16:21:23women beside her. She, as the manager,
16:21:26would personally lead the way only to
16:21:28the third floor. The second floor and
16:21:30the first floor are not required. Of
16:21:32course, if you can pull out a mid-grade
16:21:34spirit stone, that's a different story.
16:21:36Immortal Master, let's go upstairs.
16:21:39Soon, several beautiful women surrounded
16:21:41Su Chongqing, and the group went up the
16:21:43steps to the second floor. They then
16:21:45found a seat by the railing. Then, these
16:21:47people lined up and waited to be chosen.
16:21:49Even a few good-looking male prostitutes
16:21:51have emerged, all of them strong and
16:21:54muscular with eight pack abs. Such
16:21:56Chonqing glanced around and then chose a
16:21:58girl named Shiao Tahong. She is young
16:22:00and petite. His face was flushed and he
16:22:03seemed a little drunk. Of course, Su
16:22:05Chonqing knew in his heart that these
16:22:07people were not drunk at all. At first
16:22:09glance, they seem to be all sweet and
16:22:11tender, full of affection, but in
16:22:13reality, it's all just a rehearsed
16:22:15performance. If you don't do this, how
16:22:17can you willingly spend money on her? Do
16:22:20you really think that you can enjoy
16:22:21yourself all night at the invitation
16:22:23pavilion with just three low-grade
16:22:24spirit stones? As a notorious den of
16:22:27iniquity in Doning City, this is merely
16:22:29the cost of going upstairs. Immortal
16:22:32Master, would you like a drink? Not long
16:22:34after, Shiao Taong, who had changed into
16:22:36a pink dress, placed the wine on the
16:22:38table, poured a glass herself with her
16:22:40delicate white hands, and then held it
16:22:42up to the guests lips. Such Chanqing
16:22:45took a small sip and found that the wine
16:22:46at Yaoang Pavilion was indeed better, at
16:22:49least a level above the wines in the
16:22:51market where cultivators lived. But it's
16:22:53not sweet. On the contrary, it's
16:22:55extremely spicy. One bite and it felt
16:22:58like everything was on fire from your
16:23:00mouth and throat all the way down to
16:23:01your abdomen. At this alcohol content,
16:23:04most people will get drunk after
16:23:05drinking no more than 5 ounces. What
16:23:08happened next? Those who know know. It's
16:23:10fair to say that Yaoang Pavilion
16:23:12practically puts the demand for money
16:23:13out in the open. Just then, a loud
16:23:16commotion came from the doorway. Such
16:23:18Chongqing looked over and found that
16:23:19there were a few guys who were dressed
16:23:21reasonably well, but acted extremely
16:23:23crudely. Sister Hong, I'm bringing my
16:23:25brothers here to have some fun again
16:23:27today. The leader was a man with a face
16:23:29full of pock marks. quite ugly, but he
16:23:31was very generous, pulling out a huge
16:23:33mid-grade spirit stone. Ouch.
16:23:36Hungju<unk>s eyes lit up, and she
16:23:38immediately led several beautiful women
16:23:40to greet them. TCH, what's with this Han
16:23:42Matsi pretending for that bastard is
16:23:45really lucky. He actually found a
16:23:46cultivator's cave in the black forest.
16:23:49This seems to be the area where that
16:23:50rolling dragon appeared, right?
16:23:52Hanmasi's appearance drew envious
16:23:54glances from many people. In just a few
16:23:57words, Su Chongqing understood what was
16:23:59going on. It turns out that Han Matsi
16:24:01was a member of a demon hunting team in
16:24:03Daing City. While everyone's attention
16:24:05was focused on the rolling dragon,
16:24:07Hanmatsi had a stroke of luck and
16:24:09unexpectedly entered the cave of a
16:24:11cultivator. Therefore, this guy suddenly
16:24:13became very wealthy and now lives a
16:24:16carefree life, partying every night, no
16:24:18longer needing to join the demon hunting
16:24:20team and risk his life to hunt monsters.
16:24:22As a result, he has been the target of
16:24:24jealousy and envy from many of his
16:24:26peers. Such Chanqing didn't care about
16:24:29this and quickly looked away. Just then,
16:24:31a conversation between a man and a woman
16:24:33came from the third floor above his
16:24:35head. The man said, "The owner of that
16:24:37cave has been confirmed to be Huang Yuan
16:24:39Hua, a golden core cultivator from 300
16:24:42years ago. There is still half of it
16:24:44unexplored, especially the Earth rank
16:24:46escape technique, the Earth escape
16:24:48technique, which has not yet been
16:24:50found." The woman said, "Although I
16:24:52don't have an earth elemental root, I
16:24:54can still sell it for at least 5,000
16:24:56mid-grade spirit stones if I find it.
16:24:58The conversation between the man and
16:25:00woman may have seemed quiet, but in
16:25:02reality, everyone around them could hear
16:25:04it clearly." Without exception, all
16:25:07those who come to Yaoang Pavilion are
16:25:08cultivators, each with keen senses.
16:25:11Therefore, many people's expressions
16:25:13changed after hearing this. Why is it
16:25:15that this rogue cultivator named Han
16:25:17Matsi can get rich while they can't? If
16:25:19we find the so-called earth escape
16:25:21technique, these two mentioned, wouldn't
16:25:23we be able to stay in the invitation
16:25:24fragrance pavilion everyday? Something's
16:25:27not right. Su Chongqing raised an
16:25:29eyebrow. When Han Matsi first appeared,
16:25:31he attracted attention by spending money
16:25:33like water. Immediately afterwards, the
16:25:36couple on the third floor began to
16:25:38inadvertently leaked this important
16:25:40news. Although not many people have
16:25:42heard of it, those who can get to the
16:25:43second and third floors are not simple
16:25:45people. Moreover, it wasn't just
16:25:47cultivators who heard this. Su Chongqing
16:25:49glanced at Xiao Tawong, who seemed to be
16:25:51slumped over beside him. At this moment,
16:25:54her attention was no longer on the
16:25:55guests, and her eyes were constantly
16:25:57peeking at the third floor. Obviously,
16:26:00this news will leak out very soon, but
16:26:02Su Chongqing felt it was too much of a
16:26:04coincidence. He suspected that the
16:26:06couple upstairs and Han Matsi, who had
16:26:08been spending money like water on the
16:26:09first floor, were all putting on an act.
16:26:12Their purpose is likely to lure a group
16:26:14of people into exploring the so-called
16:26:16golden elixir of human character and
16:26:18yellow primordial transformation cave.
16:26:20It's either a trap, either use these
16:26:22idiots as cannon fodder. Therefore, Su
16:26:25Chongqing was not tempted at all and
16:26:27instead stopped paying attention to the
16:26:28matter. In any case, he could not
16:26:31possibly venture deep into the black
16:26:32forest. What are caves, secret realms,
16:26:35or treasures compared to his own life?
16:26:37Sure enough, in the following time, many
16:26:40people left the invitation pavilion. As
16:26:42for what they're going to do, only they
16:26:44know. Time flew by, and it was the
16:26:46morning of the next day. Su Chongqing
16:26:48removed his disguise and changed back
16:26:50into the white clothes of a disciple of
16:26:52the immortal sect. After leaving the
16:26:54inn, he walked step by step toward the
16:26:56flying fairy. As soon as I arrived, I
16:26:59saw several people coming down from
16:27:00upstairs. I wonder if what the third
16:27:02brother said is true or false. If this
16:27:05really is the cave dwelling of a golden
16:27:07core cultivator, we'll definitely make a
16:27:09fortune. We need to hurry. We're not the
16:27:12only ones over there. These people are
16:27:13clearly cultivators. One of them was
16:27:16dressed in the white robes worn by
16:27:17formal disciples of the Donging immortal
16:27:20sect with an upside down golden sword
16:27:22embroidered on his chest, clearly
16:27:24indicating that he was a disciple with a
16:27:26golden spiritual root. When they passed
16:27:28by Su Chongqing, the other man nodded,
16:27:30greeting them even though they didn't
16:27:32know each other. After all, outside
16:27:35people from the same immortal sect,
16:27:37family, or region are all considered one
16:27:39of us. Su Chongqing watched the group's
16:27:42hurried departure. His expression one of
16:27:44shock. Even the disciples of the
16:27:46immortal sect have been alerted. What
16:27:48exactly are those two up to? Chapter
16:27:50116. Business threatened. Communication
16:27:53talisman calls for help. March 3rd.
16:27:55Chapter 116. Business threatened.
16:27:58Communication talisman calls for people.
16:28:00March 3rd. Although he was indeed a
16:28:02little surprised, Su Chongqing still did
16:28:04not become curious. Therefore, when the
16:28:06immortal sex flying giant sword arrived,
16:28:09he immediately boarded it. After waiting
16:28:11for a while, several more disciples came
16:28:13up one after another and left the flying
16:28:15ferry when the time came. Just as the
16:28:18flying giant sword carried Su Chongqing
16:28:20and the others into the air, a loud boom
16:28:23suddenly rang out from the distant black
16:28:25forest as if something had exploded,
16:28:27causing the ground to tremble violently.
16:28:29Even more, a powerful shock wave swept
16:28:32in from a great distance, shredding the
16:28:34vegetation in its path and tearing
16:28:36flying birds and insects to pieces. Even
16:28:38the giant flying sword, controlled by a
16:28:41golden spiritual route and protected by
16:28:43the immortal sex array, shook violently
16:28:45at this moment, and all the people
16:28:47sitting on it trembled, which shows how
16:28:49strong the impact was. Such
16:28:51Choning<unk>s expression changed
16:28:52slightly, and he immediately shouted,
16:28:54"Go, go quickly." This matter is most
16:28:57likely related to the cave of Huang Yuan
16:29:00Ha, the golden elixir of human
16:29:02character. If nothing unexpected
16:29:04happens, many people must have died
16:29:05after that explosion. So, we need to get
16:29:07away from this dangerous place as soon
16:29:09as possible. What's that noise? It seems
16:29:12something has happened in the black
16:29:13forest. Holy crap. At this moment, the
16:29:16entire Donging city was in an uproar.
16:29:18Everyone knows that there are monsters
16:29:20in the Black Forest, which is very
16:29:22dangerous. But this situation is
16:29:24absolutely unprecedented. As you can
16:29:26see, many cultivators took to the air
16:29:29using their means of transportation, all
16:29:31looking in the direction from which the
16:29:33explosion was heard. Some of the boulder
16:29:35ones even moved closer to that side.
16:29:37However, before the aftermath had
16:29:39subsided, another wave of trouble arose.
16:29:42Boom! A second loud bang. Immediately
16:29:44afterwards, an even more violent shock
16:29:46wave surged toward this side at an even
16:29:49faster speed, shattering all the
16:29:51flowers, trees, and even the soil into
16:29:53pieces. Those cultivators who wanted to
16:29:56get close didn't even have time to
16:29:57dodge. Their flesh and blood instantly
16:29:59turned into countless chunks of meat,
16:30:01and fragments of internal organs and
16:30:04fouls smelling blood poured down like
16:30:05rain. Many people were sprayed in the
16:30:07face, and many were so frightened that
16:30:09they wet themselves. Those who had
16:30:11originally wanted to check the situation
16:30:13quickly retreated back into the city,
16:30:15not daring to go out at all. Whoosh! The
16:30:18giant flying sword finally stabilized.
16:30:20Then its blade trembled and immediately
16:30:23transformed into a sharp golden light,
16:30:25slicing through the sky at an extremely
16:30:27fast speed and disappearing into the
16:30:30horizon in the blink of an eye. "Cull."
16:30:32Su Chongqing let out a long sigh.
16:30:34Although I knew something bad would
16:30:36happen, I didn't expect it to be this
16:30:37big. I don't know how many people will
16:30:39die this time. What exactly happened in
16:30:41the black forest? The surrounding
16:30:43disciples all looked shaken. However,
16:30:46everyone looked bewildered and no one
16:30:48knew what was going on. An hour later,
16:30:50everyone finally returned safely to the
16:30:52daunting immortal sect. When Su
16:30:54Chongqing stepped back onto the solid
16:30:56ground of weapon forging peak and saw
16:30:59that he was surrounded by fellow
16:31:00disciples and even some familiar faces
16:31:02on the arena, his heart finally settled
16:31:05down. I never imagined that Daing City
16:31:07could be so dangerous. I wonder how many
16:31:09unknown secrets lie hidden deep within
16:31:11the black forest. It seems there was a
16:31:14deeper reason why this golden core
16:31:15cultivator chose to establish the market
16:31:17for rogue cultivators in that place.
16:31:20Hubui exclaimed excitedly. Old Su is
16:31:22back. Su Chongqing asked in surprise,
16:31:25"Why is Lao Xiao on the stage?" Almost
16:31:27without exception, the entire fishing
16:31:30trio Xi Hubui and Xiao Xiwi did not
16:31:33particularly enjoy fighting and
16:31:34preferred the life of cultivating
16:31:36immortality. Especially this Xiaozo
16:31:38Xiua. Besides bringing rain to Sue
16:31:41Chongqing<unk>s spiritual field, he only
16:31:43thinks about fishing. It's unbelievable
16:31:45that he actually stepped onto the arena
16:31:46for the first time. Hubui immediately
16:31:49said with a serious expression, "Someone
16:31:51is stealing our business, and their
16:31:53methods are extremely malicious. They
16:31:55even stole our barbecue seasoning." Old
16:31:58Xiao was furious, so he made a bet with
16:32:00the other party. Whoever lost would have
16:32:02to leave the Casting Peak Plaza. You
16:32:04acted impulsively. Why didn't you wait
16:32:06for me to come back? Such Chongqing
16:32:08squinted as he looked towards the arena.
16:32:10Xiao Zua has a water elemental route
16:32:12while the person opposite him has an
16:32:14earth elemental route. Because his
16:32:16spiritual root was suppressed, Ziao Xua
16:32:19was very passive in battle. It is only
16:32:21by relying on the unique and enduring
16:32:23spiritual power of the water elemental
16:32:25route that it has been able to hold on
16:32:27until now. But even so, it still cannot
16:32:30gain the slightest advantage. It's
16:32:32obvious that the other side has made
16:32:34ample preparations. It's likely that
16:32:36Xiao Xiua, Hubu, and even Su Chongqing
16:32:40have all been thoroughly investigated by
16:32:41someone. Old Sue, you have to think of a
16:32:44way. We can't really withdraw from the
16:32:46casting peak, can we? Hubuay didn't want
16:32:48to give up his profits so easily. Fewer
16:32:51and fewer people were joining the
16:32:52franchise, and now such a strong
16:32:54competitor has emerged. Su Chongqing
16:32:56frowned. The franchise fee alone earns
16:32:59at least 10 mid-grade spirit stones
16:33:01every day. not including the subsequent
16:33:03profits from ingredients. It's<unk>
16:33:05indeed easy for others to target us.
16:33:07Hubuay couldn't help but ask, "Then what
16:33:09should we do?" Looking at Ziao Xiua, who
16:33:12was struggling on the stage, Su
16:33:14Chongqing thought for a moment and said,
16:33:16"How about this? I'll try to contact
16:33:18some acquaintances to see if they're
16:33:19willing to help. If that doesn't work,
16:33:21we'll just have to give up the profits
16:33:23from the forging peak." Hubui said with
16:33:25a bitter face, "I've tried, but no one
16:33:28is willing to help." Such Chanqing
16:33:30didn't say anything but immediately took
16:33:32out several communication talismans. One
16:33:35of them is Li Sanankai. One of them is
16:33:37Chuch Chio. One of them is Bing. One of
16:33:39them is Han Xen. Of all the people I
16:33:42know, these are the only ones who might
16:33:44be able to help. Chuchio is away
16:33:46attending some kind of dragon boat
16:33:47racing competition. Li Sanankai has his
16:33:50cousin's backing, but Leing is currently
16:33:52hunting monsters in the central region.
16:33:54That leaves only Binger and Han Xen.
16:33:57Binger's father is a talisman
16:33:59cultivator, so he must have a high
16:34:00status. However, the two have not had
16:34:03any contact recently. Therefore, after
16:34:05much deliberation, Su Chongqing first
16:34:07injected his own wood elemental power
16:34:10into Han Xen's communication talisman.
16:34:12This person also has an earth elemental
16:34:14route and is a formation master. Perhaps
16:34:17he can be of help. Time ticked by and Su
16:34:19Chongqing<unk>s wood elemental power
16:34:21continued to dwindle. However, Hanxine
16:34:24on the other end did not respond and the
16:34:26call never went through. Such Chonqing
16:34:28complained, "Big sister, you can't be
16:34:30drunk first thing in the morning, can
16:34:32you?" "Hey, finally," Han Xian<unk>s
16:34:34rather horse voice came from the other
16:34:36side as if she had just woken up.
16:34:38"Sister Han, you are Su Chonqing. I've
16:34:41run into a bit of trouble. Can you help
16:34:43me out? You think you can ask me for
16:34:45help now? I won't ask for anything for
16:34:47nothing. If I can help, I will
16:34:49definitely thank you with a generous
16:34:51gift." Tsk tsk tsk I'll get up and come
16:34:55find you right now I am not in the
16:34:57spirit field where are you at casting
16:34:59peak soon communication with hanxin was
16:35:02lost the other person had just woken up
16:35:05and was rushing over here fortunately
16:35:07the casting peak is directly above the
16:35:09earth vein so it shouldn't take too long
16:35:12after much deliberation such chongqing
16:35:14felt that han xion alone was not enough
16:35:16so he also channeled his own wood
16:35:18elemental power into lonai's
16:35:20communication talisman to see if he
16:35:22could be of any help. Chapter 117 behind
16:35:25Su Ming and also thanks to Senior
16:35:27Brother Lee 1/3. Chapter 117 behind Su
16:35:31Ming. We still need Senior Brotherly
16:35:331/3. Just as Su Chongqing injected his
16:35:36own with spirit power into Lean Sai's
16:35:39communication talisman. A loud crack
16:35:41suddenly came from the other side of the
16:35:43arena as if something had broken. Su
16:35:45Chongqing immediately broke off the call
16:35:47and looked towards the arena with Hubu.
16:35:50Their expressions changed instantly.
16:35:52Ziao Ziwi used his continuous water
16:35:54elemental power to cast a water sphere
16:35:56around himself for self-defense during
16:35:58the battle. And just now, that loud bang
16:36:01was the sound of the water sphere
16:36:02breaking. Without the water sphere,
16:36:04there is less defense, less damage
16:36:06reduction, and even slower speed. Such
16:36:08Chanqing hurly stepped forward and
16:36:10asked, "Old Xiao, can you still hold
16:36:13on?" Xiao Ziwa gritted his teeth and
16:36:15said, "I am all right." Hubuay said
16:36:18indignantly, "Isn't this bullying an
16:36:20honest person? Ah, you might as well
16:36:22admit defeat. You're already countered
16:36:25by my spiritual root, so you can only
16:36:27unleash half your full strength at most.
16:36:29Even if your spiritual power is long
16:36:31enough, how long can you last?" The male
16:36:33disciple with the earth's spiritual root
16:36:35opposite him had a half smile on his
16:36:37face. While the advantage of water
16:36:39elemental roots is their sustained
16:36:41spiritual power, allowing them to last
16:36:43longer in battle, earth elemental roots
16:36:45are no less impressive. possessing
16:36:47equally enduring spiritual power and
16:36:49even stronger defensive capabilities,
16:36:52Ziao Xua's attacks barely scratched his
16:36:54opponent, while Xiao Zua himself was
16:36:56easily injured by the slightest touch,
16:36:58causing his blisters to burst. This was
16:37:01clearly not an evenly matched battle.
16:37:03Judging from the current situation, this
16:37:05male disciple with the earth elemental
16:37:07root is even deliberately toying with
16:37:09the situation. Suddenly, a loud bang
16:37:12came from the other side. People nearby
16:37:14were startled and hurriedly turned to
16:37:16look. They saw a black shuttle landing
16:37:18on the open ground on the other side.
16:37:20No, falling is a more appropriate word
16:37:23to describe it. Immediately afterwards,
16:37:25a female cultivator staggered down from
16:37:27above. Han Xen Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes
16:37:30lit up and he hurly went to greet him.
16:37:32Han Xen raised the wine flask in her
16:37:34right hand and took a big gulp, then
16:37:36wiped the wine from her mouth and asked,
16:37:38"What exactly happened?" Su Chongqing
16:37:41immediately explained, "It's like this."
16:37:43He quickly recounted the entire
16:37:45incident. Han Xen was stunned for a
16:37:47moment, then asked as if to confirm,
16:37:49"So, you've been selling barbecue all
16:37:52this time?" Su Chan nodded, stating
16:37:54matterof factly. "It's perfectly
16:37:56reasonable for a farmer like me to sell
16:37:58barbecue." Han Xen looked at the arena
16:38:01with a helpless expression. She didn't
16:38:03recognize Ziao Xiua, but she had a vague
16:38:05impression of the male disciple with the
16:38:07earth elemental route on the other side.
16:38:09So, she immediately walked over. Seeing
16:38:12this, Su Chongqing followed closely
16:38:14behind. Old Su, is it okay for you to
16:38:16hire this drunkard? Hubuay had some
16:38:19impression of Han Xen, but it was mostly
16:38:21a bad one. Su Chongqing didn't know how
16:38:23to answer this, so he could only clutch
16:38:25Leansai's communication talisman tightly
16:38:28in his hand. Soon, Han Xen strolled down
16:38:31to the edge of the arena. then squinted
16:38:33and stared intently at the earth
16:38:34elemental male disciple for a while
16:38:36before exclaiming, "Isn't that Wong
16:38:38Xian?" Senior Sister Han. Originally,
16:38:41Wong Xien, who possessed the Earth
16:38:43Spirit Route, was thinking about how to
16:38:45toy with Xiao Xiua. But when he saw that
16:38:47familiar face, his expression changed
16:38:49drastically, and he immediately became
16:38:52nervous. Why have you come? Han Xian
16:38:54clicked her tongue, then waved at the
16:38:56other person and shouted, "Get over
16:38:58here!" Wong Xian<unk>s lips twitched
16:39:00several times. After thinking it over,
16:39:02he ran off the stage and asked rather
16:39:04humbly, "Senior sister Han, so many
16:39:07people are watching. Can't you give your
16:39:08junior brother some face?" "Face?" Upon
16:39:11hearing this, Han Xian curled her lip
16:39:14and asked dismissively, "Do you know
16:39:16they are all my friends?" Uh, Wong
16:39:18Xian<unk>s eyes widened immediately.
16:39:20It's important to know that Han Xen is
16:39:22quite famous in the Earth Vain region,
16:39:24not only because of his love of
16:39:25drinking, but also because of his
16:39:27exceptional talent in formations.
16:39:29Therefore, all disciples with earth
16:39:31elemental spiritual roots in the earth
16:39:33veins respect her, which can also be
16:39:35interpreted as fearing her. Han Xen
16:39:38pointed at Su Chongqing, then at Xiao Zi
16:39:41on the stage and then glared at him and
16:39:43shouted, "One is my friend and the other
16:39:45is a friend of my friend. Are you sure
16:39:47you want to offend me?" Wong Xian turned
16:39:49pale with fright and stammered, "No, I I
16:39:52just su Chanqing pressed on." "Who
16:39:55exactly is instigating you?" Wong Xian
16:39:57opened his mouth but hesitated to speak,
16:40:00clearly not wanting to speak easily. Han
16:40:02Xian sneered. You're also a disciple
16:40:05with an earth elemental root from the
16:40:06earth veins, so you know what the
16:40:08consequences will be if you offend me,
16:40:10right? Upon hearing this, Wong Xians
16:40:12pupils contracted, his eyes filled with
16:40:15fear. It should be noted that the people
16:40:17that disciples with earth elemental
16:40:19spiritual roots dare not offend the most
16:40:21are formation masters. mainly because
16:40:23formation masters hold a very unique
16:40:25position in the immortal sect.
16:40:27Especially this woman in front of me,
16:40:29she's a complete mad woman. If you
16:40:31offend her, she'll definitely find an
16:40:33opportunity to get drunk and then go on
16:40:35a crazy rampage. The last person who
16:40:37offended Hanxin was berated and
16:40:40humiliated for 7 days straight. A truly
16:40:42horrific ordeal that became the subject
16:40:44of much gossip and laughter. If I were
16:40:46to be blocked at the door and cursed for
16:40:487 days, that would be the least of my
16:40:50worries. The real problem is that I have
16:40:52offended a formation master. Just
16:40:55thinking about the days to come sends
16:40:56chills down my spine. Han Xian shouted,
16:40:59"Speak." Wong Xian shuddered in fright
16:41:02and could only helplessly say, "It's a
16:41:04guy from Nongshin Society named Su Ming
16:41:06who asked me for help. He said that as
16:41:08long as I defeat Xiao Xiua, I can get a
16:41:11mid-grade spirit stone." Nong Society.
16:41:14Han Xian frowned. Su Ming. Su Chongqing
16:41:17recognized the name. He seemed to have
16:41:19heard it somewhere before. At this
16:41:21moment, Ziao Xiua saw that there was no
16:41:23need to fight anymore. So, he stepped
16:41:25down from the arena and came to the side
16:41:27of the group. Then, he whispered to
16:41:28Hubui, "What's the situation now?" Hubui
16:41:32scratched his head, looking puzzled, and
16:41:34said, "So, all this fighting ends up
16:41:36with our own people turning against each
16:41:38other. I've said everything I need to
16:41:40say, senior sister Han. Please spare my
16:41:42life." Wong Xian said anxiously. Han
16:41:45Xian ignored him and looked at Su
16:41:47Chongqing, saying seriously. As one of
16:41:50the five major powers, Nomin society
16:41:52holds spiritual plants that everyone
16:41:54needs, and I cannot offend them.
16:41:56Although she enjoys drinking, and even
16:41:58more so when she's drunk, she's
16:42:00absolutely rational when she needs to
16:42:02be. Offending Nongshim for the sake of
16:42:04one person is clearly a losing
16:42:06proposition, and could even be said to
16:42:08be completely unworthy of attention. Su
16:42:11Chongqing nodded slightly. It's already
16:42:13a great honor that you came to help. At
16:42:15least we now know who's behind this. Han
16:42:17Xian pondered. Lee Lingbi and Lu Yuan
16:42:20Yuan of Nshin Society have a good
16:42:22relationship. If you want to resolve
16:42:23this matter completely, I suggest you
16:42:25finally Sankai. He's Leing<unk>s cousin,
16:42:28essentially her representative within
16:42:30the immortal sect. They should give him
16:42:32face. Hubuay asked blankly. Why not just
16:42:35go to Leing? It turned out that everyone
16:42:37was staring at him like he was an idiot.
16:42:39Ziao Xa patted him on the shoulder.
16:42:41Brother, even I know that Leing went to
16:42:44the central region to hunt demons. As a
16:42:46core disciple of the Imperial Water
16:42:48Pavilion, Lee Lingbi<unk>s every move
16:42:50attracts attention. He, who could only
16:42:53use a silly laugh to cover up his
16:42:55embarrassment. Su Choning picked up the
16:42:57communication talisman he had prepared
16:42:59beforehand and sighed. I never expected
16:43:01that I would still have to ask senior
16:43:03brotherly for help in the end. Chapter
16:43:05118. Some people have no choice, while
16:43:08others do. 2/3. Chapter 118. Some people
16:43:11have no choice, but others have a
16:43:13choice. 2/3. At this moment, Hanxen,
16:43:16Wong, Xiin, Ziao, Xiwa, Hubui, and
16:43:19others watched as Su Chongqing picked up
16:43:21the communication talisman and then
16:43:23injected with spiritual power into it.
16:43:25In an instant, a faint light appeared on
16:43:28the surface of the communication
16:43:29talisman. And then it began to flash
16:43:31continuously at a very slow frequency.
16:43:34Not long after, a familiar voice came
16:43:36from the other side. Hello, senior
16:43:39brother. I am Sue Chongqing. Junior
16:43:41brother Sue, is there something you
16:43:43need? Yes, and it's a pretty big deal,
16:43:46huh? Not long after, Li Sanankai, who
16:43:49had heard the news, landed the flying
16:43:51paper crane on the hard ground of
16:43:52Casting Peak. As Su Chongqing
16:43:54approached, he waved and greeted him.
16:43:57Senior brother Liangai glanced around
16:43:59and found that there were quite a few
16:44:01people and even saw a familiar face. He
16:44:03couldn't help but ask, why is Han Xine
16:44:06here, too? It's<unk> like this. Such
16:44:08Chongqing recounted what had just
16:44:09happened. That's why I'm here at Casting
16:44:11Peak. Han Xian nodded. Li Sanankai
16:44:14suddenly realized and said, "So you mean
16:44:16a guy named Su Ming from Nongqin Society
16:44:19has his eye on your business at Guuchi
16:44:21Peak and wants to take it away? Is that
16:44:23what you mean?" Right? Su Chongqing Xiao
16:44:26Xiu and Hub Buguay nodded in unison.
16:44:28Leangai frowned and said, "This matter
16:44:31can be easy to handle in some ways, but
16:44:33it is indeed difficult in others." Han
16:44:36Xen rolled her eyes in annoyance and
16:44:38muttered, "Isn't that obvious?" Su
16:44:40Chongqing thought for a moment and said,
16:44:42"Senior brother, if you feel it's
16:44:44difficult, there's no need to stand up
16:44:46for your junior brother. At worst, we
16:44:48can give up the business of the weapon
16:44:50forging peak." Although this would mean
16:44:52losing the income of hundreds of
16:44:53mid-grade spirit stones every month,
16:44:56there was no other way. Since Nungshin
16:44:58Society was one of the five major powers
16:45:00and an absolute behemoth, both he and Li
16:45:03Sanankai were just members of the
16:45:04spiritual field. They couldn't fight
16:45:06against the powerful. Upon hearing this,
16:45:08Hubuay and Xiao Xiwa were both very
16:45:11anxious because if they lost the profits
16:45:13from this place, they would be poor
16:45:15again. There's an old saying that goes,
16:45:17"It's easy to go from frugality to
16:45:19extravagance, but difficult to go from
16:45:21extravagance to frugality." These two
16:45:23were used to receiving mid-grade spirit
16:45:25stones every day, and they could accept
16:45:27a gradual decrease. But losing them all
16:45:30at once was truly unacceptable. Leankai
16:45:33waved his hand. The key to this matter
16:45:35is whether Su Ming<unk>s decision is his
16:45:37own or whether he is actually a
16:45:38representative put forward by Nang
16:45:40Society. Nongshim is a large and
16:45:43powerful company. Would they really be
16:45:45interested in our meager income? Such
16:45:47Chanqing was more inclined to believe
16:45:48that this was Su Ming<unk>s personal
16:45:50idea, but that the other party was
16:45:52deliberately using Nongshims reputation
16:45:54to intimidate them. The daily
16:45:56transaction volume of Nungshin Society
16:45:58is more than tens of thousands of
16:46:00mid-grade spirit stones, while the
16:46:02forging peak only has a few dozen, which
16:46:04is at most a fraction of their daily
16:46:06revenue. Yes, Hubu wholeheartedly
16:46:09agreed. Hanxen took a big gulp of the
16:46:11sweet and sour wine and then said,
16:46:13"There's no point in guessing here. If
16:46:16you really want to resolve this matter,
16:46:17you might as well go directly to Red
16:46:19Maple Valley." Immediately, everyone's
16:46:21eyes were focused on Li Sanankai.
16:46:23Feeling the expectant looks from
16:46:25everyone, he nodded and said, "You're
16:46:27right." Saying this already indicates a
16:46:29willingness to help. Such Chanqing
16:46:32quickly clased his hands and thanks.
16:46:34Thank you, senior brother. Next,
16:46:36everyone started discussing. Wong Xien
16:46:38cannot leave. He must be taken to
16:46:40confront Su Ming. Ziao Xua felt quite
16:46:43exhausted, so he went home to rest
16:46:45first. Hubuay then took care of the
16:46:47matters at Casting Peak. As for Han Xen,
16:46:50it doesn't matter. She can go wherever
16:46:52she wants and do whatever she wants.
16:46:54After all, it's already quite kind of
16:46:56them to come and help. Let's go, Leai
16:46:59called out, then summoned a flying paper
16:47:01crane. I'll go with you. Han Xen jumped
16:47:04onto her black flying shuttle. Su
16:47:06Chongqing was surprised. You're not. Han
16:47:08Xen blinked. I just stopped by to buy
16:47:10some spiritual plants. Su Chongqing
16:47:13chuckled, then said to Xiao Xiu and
16:47:15Hubu, be careful. Don't get into any
16:47:18more arguments with anyone. We<unk>ll
16:47:20talk about everything when we get back.
16:47:22Good. Hubay and Xiao Zua responded
16:47:25simultaneously. Then the flying paper
16:47:27cranes and the black shuttle took off
16:47:29into the air. He quickly left with Su
16:47:31Chongqing, Liang Kai, Hanxen, and Wong
16:47:34Xian. As they drew closer to the Red
16:47:37Maple Valley Market, Wong Xian<unk>s
16:47:39expression grew grim, and he couldn't
16:47:41help but ask, "Senior brothers and
16:47:43sisters, are you really going to take me
16:47:44with you?" Offending Han Xin will make
16:47:47things difficult for him. He will
16:47:48definitely be suppressed. Offending Su
16:47:51Ming or even Nongshin Cooperative would
16:47:53prevent you from buying resources. It
16:47:55feels like no matter what I do, it's a
16:47:57dead end. Le Sanankai glanced at him
16:47:59sideways and said coldly. Do you have a
16:48:01choice? Small fry who get caught in the
16:48:04vortex are destined to be swallowed up.
16:48:06If Su Chongqing didn't know Han Xen,
16:48:08didn't know Liang Kai, and didn't have
16:48:10many connections, then Su Ming would
16:48:13definitely have taken over the business
16:48:14of Zuchi Peak, without a doubt. To put
16:48:16it bluntly, since you've been used as a
16:48:18pawn and become an accomplice, you
16:48:20should be prepared for things to go
16:48:22wrong. I I'm completely finished. Wong
16:48:25Xien was almost in despair. Before long,
16:48:27the four arrived at the Red Maple Valley
16:48:29Market. Before we even landed, we could
16:48:32already see the antique style building
16:48:34of the Nongshim exchange point with
16:48:36people constantly going in and out of
16:48:37the entrance. A huge flow of people.
16:48:40Liang Kai instructed Su Chongqing and
16:48:42Han Xen. Once inside, leave everything
16:48:45to me. Neither of you should say a word.
16:48:47Okay. Su Chonqing nodded. Han Xian
16:48:50shrugged and said, "I'm just here to buy
16:48:52spiritual plants." Liang Kai chose to
16:48:55ignore this and then led Su Chongqing
16:48:57and Wong Shien into the trading point.
16:48:59He was quite familiar with this place,
16:49:01having been a member of the core of
16:49:02Lingian for many years. Although he
16:49:05didn't have the same influence as his
16:49:06cousin Leing, he still knew the managers
16:49:08of the trading point. Not long after,
16:49:11they found a female cultivator named
16:49:13Luwang. This person had a close
16:49:15relationship with Lu Yuan Yuan. The two
16:49:17had spent a romantic night together.
16:49:19"You're looking for Yuan Yuan?" Luang
16:49:21asked, slightly surprised. "Yes, please
16:49:24contact her." Li Sanankai had no other
16:49:26choice. He genuinely didn't have Lu Yuan
16:49:29Yuan<unk>s contact information, so this
16:49:30was the only thing he could do. All
16:49:32right. Lu Shuang took out a
16:49:34communication talisman from the pink
16:49:36storage bag. Hello, Yuan Yuan.
16:49:38Leing<unk>s cousin wants to see you
16:49:40about something. Wait for me for half an
16:49:42hour. Subsequently, the communication
16:49:45was prematurely terminated by Lu Yu
16:49:47Yuan. Su Chongqing and the others
16:49:49exchanged glances, their expressions
16:49:51more or less strange. Luang was the most
16:49:54normal one among everyone present. She
16:49:57smiled slightly and explained, "Yuan
16:49:59Yuan is currently developing her
16:50:01spiritual root, so she rarely comes
16:50:03here." Su Chongqing<unk>s lips twitched
16:50:05several times. The life the other person
16:50:08was talking about seemed to have a
16:50:09different meaning from their
16:50:10understanding of life. Han Xen said with
16:50:13a playful expression, "So Lu Yuan
16:50:15Yu<unk>s Shan means giving birth."
16:50:18Chapter 119. Lu Yuanu<unk>s change of
16:50:20face. Su Ming admits defeat. 3/3.
16:50:23Chapter 119. Lu Yuan Yuan<unk>s face
16:50:26changes. Su Ming admits defeat. 3/3.
16:50:29Half an hour later, Lu Yuan Yuan with a
16:50:32flushed face. Return to the Red Maple
16:50:34Valley trading point. Yuan Yuan, you're
16:50:36here. Luang immediately stepped forward,
16:50:39her eyes scanning the other woman's
16:50:40curvaceous figure. Um, Lu Yuan Yuan
16:50:43nodded slightly, then glanced at Su
16:50:45Chongqing and the others. She first
16:50:47looked at the pretty Han Xen, then fixed
16:50:49her gaze on Liang Kai and asked,
16:50:51"Ling<unk>s cousin, are you looking for
16:50:53me? Because Lingai has some needs." The
16:50:56two crisp senior brother Ling calls left
16:50:58Su Chongqing and the others speechless.
16:51:01At first glance, they thought Lu Yuan
16:51:03Yuan and Lee Lingbi were a couple. Li
16:51:05Sanankai stood up from his chair and
16:51:07said with a smile, "Indeed, there are
16:51:09two things. Which two items?" Lu Yuan
16:51:12Yuan asked with a curious look. Li
16:51:15Sanankai immediately said, "The first
16:51:17thing is that my cousin Lingai does need
16:51:18a batch of spiritual plants. We<unk>ll
16:51:21discuss the details later. This time,
16:51:23we<unk>ll focus on the second thing."
16:51:24When Lu Yuan Yuan heard that Leing
16:51:26needed help, her eyes lit up and she
16:51:28quickly asked, "Okay, what's the second
16:51:31thing?" Li smile faded and he said in a
16:51:34deep voice, "Before discussing the
16:51:36second matter, I would like to ask
16:51:38fellow Daist Lu, have you sent people to
16:51:40forging peak to sell things or even
16:51:42steal business?" Lu Yuan Yuan was
16:51:45baffled by what she heard. I have no
16:51:46idea what you're talking about. Upon
16:51:49hearing this, Su Chongqing and Han Xen
16:51:51exchanged glances and both breathed a
16:51:53sigh of relief. It seems that this
16:51:55matter has nothing to do with Lu Yuan
16:51:57Yuan. Of course, it cannot be ruled out
16:51:59that this woman is lying. Li Sanankai
16:52:02nodded slightly, then pointed to Su
16:52:04Chongqing and introduced him. This is my
16:52:06junior brother, Su Chongqing, and also a
16:52:08member of my cousin's team. He and two
16:52:10other friends recently set up a stall
16:52:12near casting peak and the prophets were
16:52:14decent, but they caught the eye of
16:52:16someone and that person. They're from
16:52:17Nshim society. Lu Yuan Yuan wasn't
16:52:20stupid. She immediately guessed. Li
16:52:22Sanankai glanced at Wong Shien whose
16:52:25face was ashen and continued. This
16:52:27fellow Daoist clearly admitted that he
16:52:29was instructed by a man named Su
16:52:31Mingshing from the Nongshin Society to
16:52:33maliciously seize business from the
16:52:35casting peak. Lu Yuyu<unk>s face
16:52:37darkened. Su Ming is indeed a member of
16:52:40Nongshin society and even an
16:52:42intermediary connecting other spiritual
16:52:44farmers. So you really are from Nang
16:52:46Society. Hanekian suddenly spoke up, her
16:52:49tone somewhat sarcastic. Lu Yuan Yuan
16:52:51fixed her gaze on Su Chongqing and then
16:52:54asked, "How much do you earn each day at
16:52:56the forging peak?" Su Chongqing answered
16:52:58honestly, "30 mid-grade spirit stones a
16:53:01day." In reality, he could only earn a
16:53:03maximum of 10 mid-grade spirit stones a
16:53:05day, but he deliberately said more. In
16:53:08this way, not only will it attract the
16:53:10other parties extra attention, but more
16:53:12importantly, it will also make Leang Kai
16:53:14and Han Xian pay more attention to it.
16:53:1730 a day. Wong Shian<unk>s eyes widened,
16:53:19his expression one of disbelief. He
16:53:21worked himself to the bone, had to take
16:53:23the blame, and would even be suppressed
16:53:25by Han Xen in the future, all for a mere
16:53:28mid-grade spirit stone. Doesn't that
16:53:30mean that if Su Ming were to steal the
16:53:32business from the forging peak, he could
16:53:34earn at least 20 or 30 mid-grade spirit
16:53:36stones a day, which would amount to
16:53:38several hundred a month? Even Leai was
16:53:40quite surprised. He thought that 10
16:53:42coins a day would be good, and at most
16:53:4420. He never expected that setting up a
16:53:46stall at the casting peak would be so
16:53:48profitable. Han Exine, the array master
16:53:51who made even more money, also widened
16:53:53her eyes in shock. Lu Yuan Yuan,
16:53:56however, didn't react much after hearing
16:53:58this. 30 mid-grade spirit stones a day.
16:54:00It seems that setting up a stall on the
16:54:02weapon forging peak is indeed
16:54:04profitable, but I'm not interested. As
16:54:06the highest ranking manager of the
16:54:08Nongshin Society at the Red Maple Valley
16:54:10Trading Point, she receives over a,000
16:54:12mid-grade spirit stones as her monthly
16:54:14dividend and even more at the end of the
16:54:16year. She really doesn't care about this
16:54:18mere 30 stones. The main purpose of this
16:54:21statement was to tell Su Chongqing and
16:54:23the others that as a cultivator who made
16:54:25a lot of money, it was impossible for
16:54:26him to instruct Su Mingshing to do such
16:54:29a thing. It was obvious that the other
16:54:31party was deliberately using the name of
16:54:32Nongshim society to scare people, hoping
16:54:35to make Su Chongqing and the others back
16:54:37down. Li Sanankai stepped forward and
16:54:39said with a serious expression, "We
16:54:41certainly believe that this is Su
16:54:43Ming<unk>s personal behavior and has
16:54:45nothing to do with fellow Daist Lu." But
16:54:47he had the backing of Nongsham, which
16:54:49gave him such confidence. He even
16:54:51instructed this man named Wong Shin to
16:54:53severely injure one of our friends. Huh.
16:54:56Wong Xian looked completely bewildered.
16:54:58If I remember correctly, I only broke
16:55:00Xiao Zua's blister. How did it turn into
16:55:03the other party being seriously injured
16:55:04in the blink of an eye? He opened his
16:55:06mouth, about to explain, but suddenly
16:55:08felt Han Exine's fierce gaze and
16:55:11immediately shut his mouth. Anyway, now
16:55:13it's like mud dripping down your pants.
16:55:15Even if it's not poop, it's still poop.
16:55:18Lu Yuanuan nodded slightly. Don't worry,
16:55:21I will personally give you an
16:55:22explanation and will not allow anyone to
16:55:24damage the reputation of our Nshim
16:55:26cooperative. Su Chonqing couldn't help
16:55:28but think to himself, does Nonsham
16:55:30Company Limited still have any
16:55:32credibility? Seeing that the other party
16:55:34had made a guarantee, Liang Kai took a
16:55:37step back and then said, "Don't worry. I
16:55:39won't let Ling by know about this." Lu
16:55:42Yuan Yuan breathed a sigh of relief,
16:55:44then turned to Lu Shuang, one of the
16:55:46managers of the trading point.
16:55:48Shwanganger, go and call Su Mingshing
16:55:50over. Lu Shuang understood immediately
16:55:52and turned to run outside. As one of the
16:55:55managers, she had Su Ming<unk>s
16:55:56communication token. So why did she have
16:55:58to go outside and personally call this
16:56:01person over? Su Chongqing and the others
16:56:03weren't stupid. But they could only
16:56:05watch helplessly with no other options.
16:56:08After all, Lu Yu Yuan has made it clear
16:56:10that she will handle it personally, so
16:56:12we can't push her too hard or she might
16:56:14turn on us. At that point, we won't even
16:56:16be able to negotiate. Seeing this,
16:56:18Hanxen simply turned and left as well.
16:56:21It wasn't that he was there to supervise
16:56:23Lu Shuang, but rather that he felt his
16:56:25help was no longer needed here. Not long
16:56:27after, Luang brought the person back.
16:56:30Sister Lu. As soon as Su Ming entered,
16:56:32he knelt down with a thud, looking
16:56:35extremely frightened. Lu Yuan Yuan
16:56:37narrowed her eyes, staring down at her,
16:56:39and asked in an unfriendly tone, "So,
16:56:42you know you've done something wrong."
16:56:44Su Ming immediately burst into tears,
16:56:46saying, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have
16:56:48been envious of other people's business,
16:56:50and I shouldn't have damaged Nonshing
16:56:52Cooperative's reputation." Lu Yuan Yuan
16:56:55said to Liang Kai, Su Chongqing, and
16:56:57Wong Xian, "You three go out first. I'm
16:57:00going to teach this guy a lesson." Upon
16:57:02hearing this, Liangai and Su Chongqing
16:57:04led Wong Xian out. After everyone left,
16:57:07Lu Yuan Yuan stomped on Su Ming<unk>s
16:57:10face, grinding it hard with the sole of
16:57:12her shoe. Her expression turned
16:57:13ferocious and she said in a cold harsh
16:57:16voice, "I won't say anything about you
16:57:18taking a cut from other spirit farmers
16:57:20prices. But now you dare to ruin my
16:57:22image and senior brother Ling<unk>s
16:57:24eyes. Do you want to die?" In other
16:57:26words, she didn't think the person
16:57:28beneath her feet had done anything
16:57:29wrong. She was merely worried about
16:57:31damaging her image in Liingbs eyes. At
16:57:34this moment, Su Ming had no interest in
16:57:36peeking under her skirt. His voice
16:57:38trembled as he said, "Sister Lu, I was
16:57:41wrong. I'll never do it again. Chapter
16:57:44120. The matter is temporarily resolved
16:57:46and favors must be repaid. 1/3. Chapter
16:57:49120. The matter is temporarily resolved
16:57:51and favors must be repaid. One/3. Su
16:57:55Chongqing Liang Kai and Wong Xien waited
16:57:58outside. A moment later, Lu Yuan Yuan
16:58:00led Su Ming out one after the other. Su
16:58:03Ming immediately apologized. Fellow
16:58:06Daist, I'm so sorry. Such Chanqing
16:58:08looked at the shoe print on the other
16:58:10person's face and suddenly realized,
16:58:12"Isn't this the person who forced me and
16:58:14another female spirit farmer to sell
16:58:16rice when I first participated in the
16:58:18Red Maple Valley Market?" "Ahem" Lu Yuan
16:58:21Yuan coughed lightly. "Su Ming trembled
16:58:24and immediately took out 50 mid-grade
16:58:26spirit stones from his storage bag. It
16:58:28was my greed that caused your business
16:58:30to suffer and your friend to be
16:58:31seriously injured. This is a small
16:58:33compensation." Such Chanqing did not
16:58:36immediately take the money, but looked
16:58:37at Lee Sanai beside him with a
16:58:39questioning look. After seeing the other
16:58:41party nod slightly, he took the 50
16:58:43mid-grade spirit stones. Seeing this, Su
16:58:46Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief.
16:58:49In fact, he was very puzzled. He had
16:58:51already investigated and found that
16:58:52Hubui and Xiao Ziua did not have much
16:58:56background or connections at all. One is
16:58:58a formal foundation establishment stage
16:59:00disciple in the Imperial Water Pavilion.
16:59:02One of them is a formal disciple of the
16:59:04spirit beast valley in theqi refining
16:59:06stage. That's why they thought the two
16:59:08were easy to bully. They figured they
16:59:10could intimidate them with the name of
16:59:12Nongsham society and snatch away the
16:59:14business from casting peak.
16:59:15Unexpectedly, this rarelyseen third
16:59:18person managed to find Leing<unk>s
16:59:20cousin and even alarmed his boss Lu Yuan
16:59:22Yuan. It was truly unbelievable.
16:59:25However, Su Ming did not recognize Su
16:59:27Chongqing. The two had only met once.
16:59:30And at that time, Su Chongqing was using
16:59:32a fake name. At this moment, Lu Yuan
16:59:34Yuan stepped forward and said with a
16:59:36smile, "I should also thank you all. If
16:59:38you hadn't told me what happened, I
16:59:40don't know how much longer I would have
16:59:41been fooled by this guy." Li cuped his
16:59:44hands in greeting, "Not at all. Fellow
16:59:46Dowist Lu is truly kind-hearted and
16:59:49beautiful to be able to step forward and
16:59:51take charge of the overall situation and
16:59:53work with us to resolve this matter."
16:59:55Being flattered by Leing<unk>s cousin
16:59:57put Lu Yu Yuan in a good mood and she
16:59:59immediately asked. In that case, is this
17:00:02matter over? Li Sang Kai and Su
17:00:04Chongqing exchanged a glance, then
17:00:06nodded. Yes, it's over. Lu Yuan Yuan
17:00:09blinked. Shall we still talk about the
17:00:11first thing? Let's talk. Li Sananki
17:00:13replied affirmatively. Then he and Lu
17:00:16Yuan Yuan went into the room to talk
17:00:17about the first thing, which was the
17:00:19various spiritual plans that Leing
17:00:21needed. On the contrary, Su Chongqing,
17:00:24Su Ming Xan, and Wong Shian looked at
17:00:26each other, and the three of them were
17:00:27more or less a little awkward.
17:00:29Fortunately, not long after, Liang Kai
17:00:32and Lu Yu Yuan walked out of the room
17:00:33together, laughing, clearly having
17:00:35finished their conversation. Li Sanankai
17:00:38said to Su Chongqing, "Junior brother,
17:00:40let's<unk> take Wong Xian with us."
17:00:42"Okay." Su Chongqing tilted his head at
17:00:45Wong Shien, who was sweating profusely
17:00:47beside him. Soon, the three of them
17:00:49walked out of the trading point. Su Ming
17:00:51stared intently at Wong Xian<unk>s
17:00:53retreating figure, gritting his teeth.
17:00:55If the other party had been even a
17:00:57little bit tougher, I wouldn't have
17:00:58ended up like this. Lu Yuan Yuan said
17:01:01coldly. What? You're planning to take
17:01:03revenge. No. How could I dare to
17:01:05retaliate against Leing<unk>s people? Su
17:01:08Ming shrank back. Su Chongqing, Liangai,
17:01:12and Wong Xian arrived at the entrance of
17:01:14the trading point. Le Sanankai looked at
17:01:16Wong Xien who was trembling incessantly
17:01:18and then waved his hand saying, "You can
17:01:21go now." Wong Xian was stunned, his eyes
17:01:24filled with disbelief and tentatively
17:01:26asked, "Can I leave now?" Li Sanankai
17:01:29shrugged, "If you don't leave, are you
17:01:31just waiting to be retaliated against by
17:01:33Su Ming? I'm leaving now. Thank you both
17:01:36for sparing my life." Wong Xian realized
17:01:38what was happening and turned to run
17:01:40away, not daring to linger here for even
17:01:42a second longer. However, having
17:01:44offended Su Ming, Su Chongqing, and the
17:01:47array master Han Xen, his future days
17:01:50are likely to be difficult. At this
17:01:52moment, Su Chongqing said, "Senior
17:01:54brother, actually, I lied just now." Li
17:01:57Sanankai smiled slightly. I know. Such
17:02:00Chongqing was surprised. Huh? You know,
17:02:02Lansi's eyes gleamed with a sharp light
17:02:04as he said confidently. "Even if you
17:02:06could make that much money setting up a
17:02:08stall on Casting Peak, it wouldn't be up
17:02:10to you few." In fact, he lied. Ziao Xi
17:02:13was clearly not injured, but now he was
17:02:15seriously injured. The reason for saying
17:02:17this was purely to make Lu Yuan Yuan
17:02:20take this matter seriously, especially
17:02:22so that she could get more compensation.
17:02:24This shows that the two have a good
17:02:25understanding and cooperate very well,
17:02:28even without prior discussion. Su
17:02:30Choning took out the 50 mid-grade spirit
17:02:32stones that Su Ming had given him.
17:02:34Senior brother, if it weren't for your
17:02:36help this time, things would definitely
17:02:38not have been easy to resolve. Li
17:02:40Sanankai didn't even glance at it. This
17:02:42is compensation for you. Keep it for
17:02:44yourselves. Well, seeing that the other
17:02:47party was unwilling to accept it, Su
17:02:49Chongqing weighed the options in his
17:02:51mind and said, "Then how about this?
17:02:53Every month from now on, you will
17:02:55receive 20% of our profits from Casting
17:02:57Peak. If I were after the spirit
17:02:59stones," Li Sanankai frowned. However,
17:03:02before he could finish speaking, Su
17:03:04Chongqing quickly interrupted. Senior
17:03:06brother, please don't refuse. Seeing the
17:03:09other person's sincere expression,
17:03:10Liengai had no choice but to agree. All
17:03:13right. Such Chonqing then began
17:03:15searching for Han Xen, only to find that
17:03:18she had already left. Helpless, he had
17:03:20no choice but to find another time to
17:03:22thank her. Half an hour later, Su
17:03:24Chongqing returned home and breathed a
17:03:26sigh of relief when he saw that Wong
17:03:28Wong and Pearl Chicken were both all
17:03:30right. He then took out a communication
17:03:32talisman to contact Hubui and Xiaozi.
17:03:35Not long after the two arrived together.
17:03:38Hubui hurriedly asked, "Old Su, how did
17:03:40things go?" Xiao Ziua standing beside
17:03:43him also looked on nervously. Su
17:03:46Chongqing replied, "The matter is
17:03:47considered resolved for now. That guy
17:03:49named Su Ming has apologized to us and
17:03:52even offered compensation. After saying
17:03:54that, he took out 50 mid-grade spirit
17:03:56stones. Upon seeing so many spirit
17:03:59stones, Hubui and Xiao Zu both widened
17:04:02their eyes." Such Chonqing continued,
17:04:05"It's the same as always. I get 70%,
17:04:08Lahu gets 20%, and Lao Xiao gets 10%. No
17:04:12problem. Neither of them had any
17:04:13objections. In the end, Su Chongqing
17:04:16obtained 35 mid-grade spirit stones.
17:04:19Hubui obtained 10 mid-grade spirit
17:04:21stones. As for Xiao Xiua, this severely
17:04:24injured person received five mid-grade
17:04:27spirit stones. Seeing the two happy
17:04:29people, Su Chongqing couldn't smile. he
17:04:32said with a stern face. There's
17:04:33something else I need to talk to you
17:04:35about. What? Hubui and Xiao Xiwa
17:04:38suddenly tensed up. Su Chongqing said
17:04:40earnestly. Senior brother Leang Kai
17:04:43helped the most with this matter. So to
17:04:45express my gratitude, I gave him 20% of
17:04:47the profits. Upon hearing this, Hubui
17:04:50fell silent. Ziao Xua was taken aback
17:04:53for a moment, then nodded to show his
17:04:55understanding. I should have done so. I
17:04:57was impulsive this time. I shouldn't
17:04:59have gambled with that guy. I guess I'll
17:05:00just lose my 10% now. Seeing that the
17:05:03two weren't angry, Su Chongqing
17:05:05continued, give senior brother Lee 20%
17:05:07of the profits first, and the remaining
17:05:0980% will be divided according to the
17:05:11previous ratio. Chapter 121, The Earth's
17:05:15veins repay kindness. A roaring sound
17:05:17echoes from the depths, two of three.
17:05:20Chapter 121, The Earth's veins repay of
17:05:23favor. A roaring sound echoes from the
17:05:25depths, 2/3. Ah, Hubuay and Xiao Xiua
17:05:29stared wideeyed. They had thought they
17:05:31might lose all their profits this time
17:05:33or even be kicked out. After all, if the
17:05:36two of them had handled things properly,
17:05:38the matter wouldn't have escalated. If
17:05:40Xiao Ziua had any sense, he would never
17:05:42have challenged Wong Xiin to a duel, let
17:05:44alone used the business of Zhui Peak as
17:05:46a wager between the two. Hubu also had
17:05:49problems. Not only did he fail to stop
17:05:51Xiao Xiua, who had already lost his
17:05:54temper, he even watched the situation
17:05:55escalate further. Fortunately, Su
17:05:58Chongqing returned in time. He first
17:06:00asked Han Xen to help suppress Wong Xien
17:06:03and then asked Leang Kai to negotiate
17:06:05with Lu Yuan Yuan of Nong Society, which
17:06:07resolved the matter. The whole process
17:06:09seemed simple, as if all it took was
17:06:11finding someone, but in reality, it
17:06:14involved a great deal of risk. Such
17:06:16Chongqing waved his hand. We're all
17:06:18brothers. The profits from the forging
17:06:20peak were declining every day. Now,
17:06:22giving senior brotherly 20% would not
17:06:25only resolve the issue, but also get him
17:06:27on the pirate ship, which felt pretty
17:06:28good. After all, his most profitable
17:06:31business with spirit stones was actually
17:06:33in the rogue cultivator market. One
17:06:35sells spirit rice wine, one is selling
17:06:37high-quality pills. If things stabilize
17:06:39in the future, the spirit stones earned
17:06:41each day will be at least several times
17:06:43that of the forging peak and possibly
17:06:45even dozens or hundreds of times more.
17:06:48Hubuay took a deep breath. Old Su, from
17:06:51now on, whatever you say goes. Ziao Xiua
17:06:54was also very moved. I will help your
17:06:56spiritual plants bring rain every day.
17:06:58Such Chanqing was startled. Don't let it
17:07:01rain every day. If the spiritual plants
17:07:03are drowned, I'll suffer a huge loss.
17:07:06Not long after, Hubuay left first as he
17:07:09still had many things to do in the
17:07:10spirit beast valley. During this time,
17:07:13he has been buying land and continuously
17:07:15expanding the number of spirit beasts,
17:07:17and now it has taken shape. In a year or
17:07:20two, Hubuguay will likely become the
17:07:22largest supplier of excrement in the
17:07:24spirit beast valley. Ziao Xua felt a
17:07:26little ashamed, so he sent down a
17:07:28magical rain before leaving. Seeing that
17:07:30it was already noon, Su Chongqing went
17:07:33into the kitchen to start cooking. Half
17:07:35an hour had passed by the time
17:07:36everything was settled. After eating and
17:07:39drinking their fill, Wong Wong and the
17:07:41Guinea Fowl rested under the popular
17:07:42tree. Su Chongqing moved a wooden chair
17:07:45to the doorway, sat down to rest, and
17:07:47took out Han Xen's communication
17:07:49talisman. Who? Your junior brother, Sue.
17:07:52It seems the matter has been resolved.
17:07:54Thanks to senior sister Han for her help
17:07:56this time. Stop talking nonsense. What
17:07:58do you want? I have some new yellow rice
17:08:00wine here. Would you like to try it?
17:08:02Yuyu, you big dummy. You've given me
17:08:04goosebumps. All right, Lo Han, that's
17:08:07more like it. I have something to do
17:08:08here and can't come over. You can bring
17:08:10the millet wine over yourself. The call
17:08:12between the two then ended. Such
17:08:14Chanqing put the communication talisman
17:08:16back into the small storage bag, then
17:08:19got up and walked into the kitchen. Upon
17:08:21entering, he looked at the scene before
17:08:23him and couldn't help but frown. Because
17:08:25we need to brew quite a lot of alcohol,
17:08:27we feel that the current space is not
17:08:29enough. One barrel contains highquality
17:08:31Lingi wine. One barrel contains top
17:08:34grade Lingi wine. There is also a barrel
17:08:36of top quality yellow rice wine. These
17:08:38alone already take up twothirds of the
17:08:40kitchen space. The remaining third
17:08:42consisted of a stove, cutting board,
17:08:44medicine pot, water bucket, and drainage
17:08:47ditch. Such Choning pondered. It seems I
17:08:50need to ask Junior brother Han to expand
17:08:52the space, and it would be best to build
17:08:53a basement as well. Then he walked to
17:08:56the large vat used for brewing yellow
17:08:58rice wine, lifted the gauze, and looked
17:09:00inside. The quantity is not much, only
17:09:02about 5 lb. Unless the scale is
17:09:05expanded, the maximum yield is 10 kg per
17:09:08month. They didn't even have enough for
17:09:10themselves, and now they have to give it
17:09:12all away. But there was nothing he could
17:09:14do. After all, he owed Han Xen a favor.
17:09:17Therefore, Su Chongqing could only first
17:09:19pack five caddies of yellow rice wine
17:09:22and then open the large barrel
17:09:23containing the top grade spirit rice
17:09:25wine and take out 20 caddies from it.
17:09:27Send 25 gene 12.5 kg as a token of
17:09:31appreciation first. If the other party
17:09:33is not satisfied, send more. He then
17:09:35left home without stopping and rode the
17:09:37large leaf grass toward the lay lines.
17:09:40Since it wasn't my first time, I arrived
17:09:42smoothly. Unexpectedly, the person
17:09:44guarding the entrance to the cave was
17:09:46still Sha Feay. It was that tall,
17:09:48muscular, sharpeyed strong man. What is
17:09:51it? Sha Fay's attitude became serious
17:09:53when he saw that it was big leaf grass.
17:09:55These days, you can roughly judge a
17:09:57person's identity and background just by
17:09:59their mode of transportation. If it's a
17:10:01flying paper crane or a land-based
17:10:03spirit beast, then it's definitely an
17:10:05ordinary formal disciple. In the world
17:10:07of cultivation, anyone with a bit of
17:10:10ability uses more advanced technology.
17:10:12Su Chongqing smiled slightly. I've come
17:10:14to find the array master Han Xen. Han
17:10:17Xen. Sha Fe raised an eyebrow and
17:10:20pressed. Was there any prior contact? Su
17:10:23Chongqing nodded slightly. I had already
17:10:25made an appointment with her before I
17:10:26came. Shaun Feain nodded slightly. In
17:10:29that case, come down with me. Anyone who
17:10:31knows a formation master is definitely
17:10:34not an ordinary person. Therefore, he
17:10:36reduced the number of questions
17:10:38specifically targeting formal disciples
17:10:40and eliminated the procedures.
17:10:42Immediately, Su Chongqing followed Sha
17:10:44Feay and the two of them walked little
17:10:46by little towards the deepest part of
17:10:48the cave along the circular path. Upon
17:10:50reaching the bottom, Su Chonqing found
17:10:52that the place was no different from
17:10:54when he last came. Everywhere were
17:10:56Earth's spirit root disciples who looked
17:10:58like miners. They all had salow
17:11:00complexions and heavy bodies and were
17:11:02reluctant to speak. Sha Feay pointed to
17:11:04the entrance of a lay line and said,
17:11:06"Almost all array masters live below the
17:11:0920th level of the lay line. The Han Xian
17:11:11you mentioned is on the 38th level of
17:11:13the lay line. Thank you." Such Chanqing
17:11:16cuped his hands in thanks, then walked
17:11:18towards the entrance. As Sha Feay
17:11:20watched the receding figure, he frowned
17:11:22and said, "I feel like I've seen this
17:11:24person before." On the other side, Su
17:11:27Chongqing slowly descended deeper
17:11:29underground. After a while, he finally
17:11:31saw the notice board. The four large
17:11:33characters above read, "Earth Earth vein
17:11:35level one." As is well known, starting
17:11:37from here, one floor is added every 100
17:11:40m down. Han Xen lives on the 38th floor
17:11:43of the Earth's vein, which is 3,800 m.
17:11:47The deeper you go, the denser the
17:11:49Earth's energy becomes. Fortunately, Su
17:11:52Chanqing had come for several days in a
17:11:53row when he helped Human cultivate the
17:11:55Earth lotus. Therefore, I have a good
17:11:58understanding of the environment,
17:11:59atmosphere, and situation here. And I
17:12:02know that the further down I go, the
17:12:03greater the pressure will be. But things
17:12:05are different now. He has reached the
17:12:07early stage of foundation establishment
17:12:09and has the assistance of the
17:12:10accompanying green lotus. Therefore, as
17:12:13long as it is not the hundth layer of
17:12:14the earth vein, there will be absolutely
17:12:16no problem. He immediately began to
17:12:18delve deeper layer by layer. 10 floors,
17:12:2220th floor, 38th floor. Upon
17:12:24successfully arriving at the 38th level
17:12:26of the earth's veins where Hanexin was
17:12:28located, Su Chongqing was surprised to
17:12:31find this was actually a spacious
17:12:33platform surrounded by many disciples
17:12:35with earth elemental roots, including
17:12:37Han Exine who was standing in the very
17:12:39front row. There were three men and one
17:12:42woman beside her, and the five of them
17:12:44were surrounded by a circle of empty
17:12:46space as if no one dared to approach
17:12:48them easily. At this moment, everyone
17:12:50was gazing into the depths opposite as
17:12:53if searching for something. Just then,
17:12:55the entire space began to hum, followed
17:12:57by a rumbling sound from the depths
17:12:59opposite as if an ancient creature was
17:13:01awakening. Chapter 1 1229 drops gather
17:13:04into a pool early stage to mid-stage
17:13:073/3. Chapter 1 1229 drops gather into a
17:13:11pool early stage to mid-stage 3/3. Is it
17:13:14coming? It's been ringing for the past
17:13:16few days. It should be about time.
17:13:18Whether we can break through depends on
17:13:20this. Faced with this situation,
17:13:22ordinary earth elemental disciples,
17:13:24though agitated, remained silent. Only
17:13:27the five people standing at the front,
17:13:29namely Han Xen and her group were
17:13:31discussing among themselves. Such Chanin
17:13:34was puzzled. So he stepped forward and
17:13:35asked, "Senior sister Han, what are you
17:13:38doing?" Upon hearing this, Han Xen
17:13:40turned her head and saw that it was an
17:13:42acquaintance. She then replied, "Over
17:13:44the past year, the Earth lotus has been
17:13:46maturing at an increasingly faster pace.
17:13:49Everyone is guessing that this is a sign
17:13:51that the Earth's energy is about to
17:13:53erupt. Coincidentally, someone predicted
17:13:55that it would erupt completely today.
17:13:57Earth's energy." Su Chongqing seemed to
17:13:59understand, but not quite. Han Xian
17:14:02smiled and said, "You don't have an
17:14:04earth elemental route, so you don't know
17:14:06the benefits of the chi to us. Be
17:14:08prepared to have your eyes opened."
17:14:09Suddenly, a male array master next to
17:14:12her asked, "Hanxen, who is this person?"
17:14:14At this moment, someone came to disturb
17:14:16them, which made him and several other
17:14:18array masters unhappy. Unexpectedly,
17:14:21Hanxen was chatting and laughing with
17:14:23the other party. "I have a friend with a
17:14:25wood elemental route." Hanexian
17:14:27shrugged. Upon hearing that it was a
17:14:29wood elemental route, the group was
17:14:31surprised. Although what overcomes
17:14:33earth, we are currently in a period of
17:14:35explosive earth energy and theoretically
17:14:38the deeper we go underground, the
17:14:40greater the pressure we will bear. But
17:14:42the other person didn't seem to feel any
17:14:44pressure at all. Su Chanqing originally
17:14:46intended to give the spirit rice wine to
17:14:48Han Xen, but seeing the situation, he
17:14:50felt he shouldn't disturb her, so he
17:14:52stood aside and waited. Of course, he
17:14:55was mainly curious about what would
17:14:56happen. As time ticked by, the rumbling
17:14:59from the depths grew increasingly
17:15:01deafening, sounding like the roar of
17:15:03terrifying creatures. Not long after, a
17:15:05crackling sound was heard, as if
17:15:07something was splitting open. They're
17:15:09here. Hanx's eyes lit up. Immediately,
17:15:12everyone excitedly looked into the
17:15:14distance. At this moment, although
17:15:16everyone is underground, the view is not
17:15:18completely dark. Even with the light
17:15:20emanating from the spirit stone vein, it
17:15:23was still possible to see things
17:15:24clearly. From a great distance away,
17:15:26with a gurgling sound, a cloud of yellow
17:15:29mist drifted out. At first glance, it
17:15:32seems to be just an ordinary yellow
17:15:33mist, but in fact, it is the yellow aura
17:15:36that Hans Su once mentioned. A wisp of
17:15:39yellow vapor weighing 10,000 gene. What
17:15:42you see is not just a wisp, but a whole
17:15:44clump. Snap. Click. Splash. Click. The
17:15:48yellow mist formed by the convergence of
17:15:50yellow vapors could not be stopped by
17:15:52anything in its path. No matter how hard
17:15:54the rock, metal, or even mineral vein,
17:15:57it all turns to dust the moment it
17:15:59encounters this yellow mist. Su
17:16:01Chongqing watched helplessly as a spirit
17:16:03stone vein was cut in half by this cloud
17:16:06of yellow mist, resulting in a loss of
17:16:08at least 100,000 mid-grade spirit
17:16:10stones. Faced with this weight, the
17:16:12space itself seemed to hum as if a
17:16:15colossal object was moving, sending
17:16:17chills down the spines of everyone
17:16:19present. At this moment, one of the male
17:16:21array masters, who was over 2 m tall,
17:16:24spoke up. Everyone, whether you can
17:16:26capture a wisp of yellow energy depends
17:16:28on your individual abilities. Upon
17:16:31hearing this, the other array masters
17:16:33nodded in agreement, their eyes filled
17:16:35with fervent admiration. Su Chongqing
17:16:37saw this and finally understood why Han
17:16:40Xen was holding a compass which he had
17:16:42used to set up the formation instead of
17:16:44a wine pouch. Swoosh. The four array
17:16:47masters excluding Han Xen suddenly
17:16:49leaped up. The person was in the air and
17:16:51did not fall downwards. Some people have
17:16:54a layer of yellow armor on their surface
17:16:56with a row of vertical characters on
17:16:58their chest in the center following the
17:17:00example of heaven and the earth goddess.
17:17:02Others float in the air, their feet
17:17:04resting on seemingly real lotus flowers
17:17:06emerging from the ground. Then they all
17:17:09rush towards the yellow mist on the
17:17:11opposite side. Such Chanqing asked
17:17:13curiously, "Aren't you going?" Han Xian
17:17:15explained, "This cloud of yellow mist
17:17:17weighs at least a million pounds. The
17:17:20closer you get, the greater the pressure
17:17:21you will experience. Even with
17:17:23protective magic, there is still a
17:17:25possibility of injury. I choose to wait
17:17:27a little longer. In fact, she was not
17:17:29alone in thinking this way, especially
17:17:32among the formal disciples of the
17:17:33earth's spirit route around her. These
17:17:35people have low cultivation levels, low
17:17:37spell levels, and low endurance. So,
17:17:40they dare not rush forward at this time.
17:17:42Otherwise, it would be no different from
17:17:43courting death. Seeing this, Su
17:17:46Chongqing thought to himself, "Junior
17:17:48Brother Han once said that if an earth
17:17:49elemental disciple wants to become a
17:17:51core disciple, he either needs to
17:17:53perform exceptionally well in the formal
17:17:55disciple competition or he needs to
17:17:57withstand a trace of yellow energy with
17:17:59his body. Clearly, these formal
17:18:01disciples probably share similar
17:18:03thoughts. As time went on, more and more
17:18:05people came to the 38th level of the
17:18:07Earth's veins. They quickly split into
17:18:09two groups. Array masters gathered
17:18:12together. Formal disciples gathered
17:18:14together, no more than 10 on each side.
17:18:16There were at least 100 people on one
17:18:18side. Moreover, the number of people is
17:18:20constantly increasing. On the other
17:18:22side, those who were the first to
17:18:24approach the yellow mist were already
17:18:26attempting to absorb it. Although Su
17:18:28Chongqing was not an earth elemental
17:18:30cultivator, he could tell that these
17:18:31people were probably using a technique
17:18:33like the earth guiding technique,
17:18:35especially the 2 m tall male array mage.
17:18:38As he gradually devoured the enemy, the
17:18:40yellow armor on his body became more and
17:18:42more prominent, even radiating a luster
17:18:45comparable to gold. The words on his
17:18:47chest, in particular, exuded an
17:18:49indescribable charm. Moreover, this
17:18:52person is the closest to the yellow fog.
17:18:54Everyone else maintains a distance of at
17:18:56least a kilometer to ensure they don't
17:18:58get injured. The male array mage was
17:19:00only a few hundred meters away and was
17:19:02even trying to close the distance. Su
17:19:04Chongqing asked in surprise. With such a
17:19:07thick yellow fog, can anyone really
17:19:09succeed? Han Xian nodded. A whole mass
17:19:12can't be absorbed, but a strand or
17:19:14thread is fine. Suddenly, a gurgling
17:19:17sound came from below as if water was
17:19:19flowing. Such Chongqing, Han Xen, and
17:19:22the people around them looked over upon
17:19:24hearing the sound, and their eyes
17:19:26widened in surprise. The spirit stone
17:19:28vein, which had been cut in half by the
17:19:30yellow mist, suddenly released a burst
17:19:32of spiritual energy like a spring with a
17:19:35whoosh. The yellow fog above created a
17:19:37direct clash. The yellow mist was torn
17:19:40apart little by little, and wisps of
17:19:42yellow gas scattered in all directions.
17:19:44At the same time, a massive amount of
17:19:46spiritual energy spread outwards. Damn
17:19:49it. Such Chanqing hurriedly sat
17:19:51cross-legged and immediately activated
17:19:53the max level azure lotus creation
17:19:55technique. He even took a big gulp of
17:19:57yellow rice wine while Han Xion wasn't
17:20:00paying attention in order to speed up
17:20:02the absorption of spiritual energy.
17:20:04There are two types of spiritual energy.
17:20:06One type is attribute-free spiritual
17:20:08energy which anyone can absorb. One type
17:20:11is spiritual energy with attributes
17:20:13which is absorbed according to the
17:20:15attributes of the spiritual root. At
17:20:17this moment, the spiritual energy
17:20:19gushing out of the spirit stone vein is
17:20:21precisely the attribute-free spiritual
17:20:23energy that anyone can absorb. Not only
17:20:26Such Chongqing, but most people present
17:20:28were absorbing and refining it. However,
17:20:31they clearly lacked max level
17:20:32cultivation techniques and top-grade
17:20:34yellow rice wine, thus falling far short
17:20:36in terms of speed, efficiency, and
17:20:39benefits. Such Chonqing<unk>s body was
17:20:41like a vortex that could devour
17:20:43anything, absorbing a large amount of
17:20:45attributeless spiritual energy into his
17:20:47body, which was then continuously
17:20:49transformed and eventually became the
17:20:51wood and fire spiritual energy in his
17:20:53dantion. From the time I broke through
17:20:55to the early stage of foundation
17:20:57establishment until now, I have
17:20:59accumulated a total of six drops of wood
17:21:01elemental power. while I only have one
17:21:03drop of fire elemental power. As it was
17:21:05continuously absorbed and refined, the
17:21:08wood elemental power began to increase,
17:21:10rapidly increasing from six drops to
17:21:12seven drops, then eight drops and nine
17:21:15drops. Suddenly, the sea ofQi trembled,
17:21:18and nine drops of wood spiritual power
17:21:20gathered together, constantly absorbing
17:21:22and merging, eventually forming a pool.
17:21:25Su Chongqing exclaimed inwardly, "I've
17:21:28broken through to the midfoundation
17:21:30establishment stage. Chapter 123
17:21:32different treatment for foundation
17:21:34establishment stage players 1/3 Chapter
17:21:37123 different treatment for foundation
17:21:39establishment stage cultivators 1/3 any
17:21:42cultivator whether with a single or
17:21:44multiple spiritual roots has only one
17:21:46thing to do after reaching the
17:21:48foundation establishment stage to
17:21:50continuously accumulate spiritual power.
17:21:53Now Su Choning's wood elemental power
17:21:55has fused from nine drops into one pool.
17:21:58Not only has the quantity changed, but
17:21:59the quality has also changed. Both the
17:22:02concentration and the intensity have at
17:22:04least doubled. But he didn't stop. He
17:22:06continued to absorb attribute less
17:22:08spiritual energy. This is because
17:22:10although the wood elemental power has
17:22:12reached the standard of the
17:22:13midfoundation establishment stage, the
17:22:16fire elemental power has not accumulated
17:22:18much during this period. So there is
17:22:20only one drop in the chi. Such
17:22:22Chonqing's biggest problem is that
17:22:24although he has a fire spirit route, he
17:22:26can't find a place to absorb fire spirit
17:22:28energy. Now facing so much attributeless
17:22:31spirit energy, it is obviously an
17:22:33excellent opportunity to absorb and
17:22:35improve, so he can't miss it. In the
17:22:37following period, the fire elemental
17:22:39power that occupied the other half of
17:22:41the chi- also began to slowly increase
17:22:44in quantity. One drop, two drops, five
17:22:47drops, seven drops, and it looked like
17:22:49it was going to be nine drops. Suddenly,
17:22:51a man's sharp shout came from the
17:22:53entrance behind them. No one except
17:22:55those with earth elemental roots is
17:22:56allowed to stay here. I don't care who
17:22:58you are. Leave now. Such Chonqing opened
17:23:02his eyes and couldn't help but turn his
17:23:03head to take a look. The man was wearing
17:23:05a bright yellow armor and was tall and
17:23:08imposing. It has a pair of huge copper
17:23:10bell-shaped eyes with a rather fierce
17:23:12look. Standing there, he seemed not to
17:23:14be a person, but a majestic mountain.
17:23:17Han Xin whispered a reminder. This man
17:23:19is called Yang Xinua. He is in charge of
17:23:22our lay lines. He's starting to kick
17:23:24people out, so you can't stay any
17:23:25longer. If it's an ordinary formal
17:23:27disciple or a formation master, Hanxen
17:23:30could try talking to the other party.
17:23:32Perhaps they would give her some face.
17:23:34But the manager is different. His
17:23:36strength and status are even higher than
17:23:37those of the core disciples. Moreover,
17:23:40this guy named Yong Xhin Yua has a
17:23:42complicated background and identity.
17:23:44After a moment's thought, Su Chongqing
17:23:46said, "But I'm about to break through to
17:23:48the foundation establishment stage." He
17:23:50absolutely could not miss such a
17:23:52once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In any
17:23:55case, the quantity and quality of fire
17:23:57spiritual power must be raised to the
17:23:59midfoundation establishment stage. The
17:24:01combination of the two spiritual powers
17:24:03can even rival single spiritual root
17:24:06cultivators in the late foundation
17:24:08establishment stage. Even if not used
17:24:10for combat, it would be more convenient
17:24:12for slash and burn agriculture or daily
17:24:14use. Huh? Hanxen was stunned when she
17:24:17heard this. Seeing Yong Xinua shoeing
17:24:19people away, she thought it over and
17:24:21over and finally got up helplessly and
17:24:23walked towards him. Yong Xinua raised an
17:24:25eyebrow and demanded, "Why are you
17:24:27looking for me?" Instead of going to
17:24:29devour the yellow energy, Han Xen
17:24:31pointed to Su Chongqing, who was sitting
17:24:34cross-legged behind her and said,
17:24:36"That's a friend of mine with a wood
17:24:37elemental root." Yang Xinua glanced at
17:24:40him sideways, then urged him without any
17:24:42politeness, "Hurry up and let him
17:24:44leave." Han Xian quickly explained, "But
17:24:47my friend is about to break through to
17:24:49the foundation establishment stage." Uh,
17:24:52Yong Xua was stunned on the spot. In
17:24:54that case, he really couldn't just kick
17:24:56the person out. When breaking through a
17:24:58certain level, any mistake can lead to a
17:25:00major disaster. Failure to break through
17:25:03is a minor matter. The real danger is
17:25:05the possibility of losing one's life on
17:25:07the spot. Although the other party was
17:25:09only a chi refining stage with spirit
17:25:11root cultivator, he was also just one of
17:25:13the thousands of spirit farmers. But at
17:25:16such a critical moment, you really can't
17:25:18just kick them out. After thinking it
17:25:20over, Yang Xhan Yua walked towards Su
17:25:22Chongqing. Seeing this, Han Xen
17:25:24hurriedly followed behind. Su Chongqing
17:25:27kept seizing opportunities to devour a
17:25:29tributeless spiritual energy. And even
17:25:31though he knew someone was approaching
17:25:33and that it was even the manager of the
17:25:34earth veins, he still did not stop.
17:25:37After all, a tributeless spiritual
17:25:39energy can only be transformed into fire
17:25:42spiritual power in the Danteon after
17:25:44being inhaled and refined. Therefore,
17:25:47outsiders cannot detect it, especially
17:25:49since he has the max level azure lotus
17:25:51creation technique. As he approached,
17:25:53Yang Xinua and narrowed his eyes and
17:25:56looked the person up and down. Indeed,
17:25:58the person in front of him was emanating
17:26:00a rich wood elemental energy. However,
17:26:03just to be on the safe side, especially
17:26:05to prevent the other party from lying,
17:26:07he used his golden core divine sense to
17:26:09envelop the person. At this moment, Su
17:26:12Chongqing<unk>s absorption speed of
17:26:13spiritual energy, refining efficiency,
17:26:15and especially the aura he exuded were
17:26:18indeed very similar to when he broke
17:26:20through, so it seemed that he was not
17:26:21lying. Yong Xhin Yuf felt something was
17:26:23off, but he couldn't quite put his
17:26:25finger on it. Hanxen was extremely
17:26:27nervous and couldn't help but ask, "What
17:26:29do you think, manager?" Yong Xinua
17:26:32frowned, but his attitude softened.
17:26:34"Let<unk>s wait until he breaks through
17:26:35before we leave." Han Xen breathed a
17:26:38sigh of relief. "That's great. If Yong
17:26:40Xhin Yuan insists on Su Chongqing
17:26:42leaving, she can only bring up Leing by.
17:26:45Perhaps the other party will give the
17:26:46core disciple some face. Although Su
17:26:48Chongqing was cultivating, he could
17:26:50still hear the conversation between the
17:26:52two people behind him. He breathed a
17:26:54sigh of relief and finally refined the
17:26:56ninth drop of fire spirit power. Sure
17:26:59enough, just like with the wood
17:27:00elemental power, when they reached nine
17:27:02drops, they quickly gathered together,
17:27:04devoured, and merged with each other,
17:27:06and finally became a pool of fire
17:27:08elemental power. However, the two
17:27:11spiritual energies in the Chi Sea are a
17:27:13bit strange. The fire spiritual energy
17:27:15actually wants to devour the wood
17:27:17spiritual energy, so it must be kept
17:27:19under constant watch. Currently, Su
17:27:21Chongqing has raised his cultivation
17:27:23level to the midfoundation establishment
17:27:25stage. And even the two spiritual
17:27:27energies in his chi-C have reached the
17:27:29form that is only available in the
17:27:31midfoundation establishment stage.
17:27:33However, in order to avoid suspicion, he
17:27:36only released a strong wood elemental
17:27:38power, but no longer pretended and
17:27:40directly unleashed the aura that only a
17:27:42foundation establishment stage
17:27:44cultivator could possess. Someone has
17:27:46broken through. Foundation establishment
17:27:48stage. The foundation establishment
17:27:50stage I've been longing for. This person
17:27:53actually has a wood elemental root. The
17:27:55aura of a foundation establishment
17:27:57cultivator was released immediately
17:27:59attracting the attention of those around
17:28:01him. All eyes turned to Such Chongqing.
17:28:04Their gazes filled with either envy or
17:28:06jealousy. After all, there is an
17:28:08essential difference between chi
17:28:10refining stage cultivators and
17:28:12foundation establishment stage
17:28:13cultivators. Especially after reaching
17:28:15the foundation establishment stage, you
17:28:17can be rewarded with one mid-grade
17:28:19spirit stone and one bottle of
17:28:21foundation spirit pill every month. As
17:28:23for the wood spirit root spirit farmer,
17:28:25as long as he reports the information,
17:28:27he can immediately obtain one acre of
17:28:29grade two spirit field, and he can even
17:28:31obtain another acre of grade two spirit
17:28:34field every time he breaks through his
17:28:36realm in the future. In other words,
17:28:38this person is about to take off. Su
17:28:40Chongqing stood up, smiled, and bowed
17:28:42with his hands clasped in thanks. "Thank
17:28:45you, Steuart." Yang and senior sister
17:28:47Han. Han Xian rolled her eyes in
17:28:49annoyance, not wanting to say a word,
17:28:51Yong Xhin Yua said in a deep voice.
17:28:54"Congratulations on breaking through to
17:28:56the foundation establishment stage, but
17:28:58the Earth veins are becoming
17:28:59increasingly dangerous. Please leave
17:29:01here as soon as possible." "Okay, I'll
17:29:03be going now." Such Chan handed Han Xen
17:29:06the yellow rice wine he had just taken a
17:29:08sip of and the 25 caddies of top grade
17:29:11spirit rice wine and then walked towards
17:29:13the entrance. Han Xian waited in her
17:29:15hand and thought to herself, 30 lb, huh?
17:29:18This kid has some conscience. Yang Xinua
17:29:21glared at him. They've already broken
17:29:22through to a higher realm. What are you
17:29:24doing holding on to the wine? Hurry up
17:29:26and start absorbing the yellow energy.
17:29:29Han Xang gave an awkward smile, quickly
17:29:31put away the drinks, and then took the
17:29:33compass and soared into the air. Upon
17:29:35seeing this, Yang Xinua opened his right
17:29:38palm, and a dark blue stone with rough
17:29:40texture and hardness appeared out of
17:29:42thin air with six large characters on
17:29:44it. To ward off evil spirits and
17:29:47suppress calamities, with a gentle
17:29:49flick, the bluish black stone flew out
17:29:51of his hand and sped towards the yellow
17:29:53mist ahead. Then an invisible force
17:29:56field radiated out reducing the movement
17:29:58speed of all the scattered yellow energy
17:30:01by 50% while increasing the pressure
17:30:03resistance of all earth elemental roots
17:30:05within the force field by 50%. Chapter

17:31:14spiritual plants from 1 acre of grade 2
17:31:17spiritual fields Chongqing walked uphill
17:31:20alone encountering many disciples with
17:31:22earth elemental roots along the way.
17:31:24Even after returning to the bottom of
17:31:26the pit, Han Su was still nowhere to be
17:31:28seen. Upon seeing this, he immediately
17:31:31opened the small storage bag and took
17:31:33out the other party's communication
17:31:34talisman. This is a golden opportunity
17:31:37that we absolutely cannot let the other
17:31:39party miss. We must notify them. Hello,
17:31:42Junior Brother Han. Long time no see.
17:31:44Senior brother Sue, do you need me to
17:31:46loosen the soil? No. Where are you? I've
17:31:49been cultivating lately and haven't even
17:31:51gone mining. Yellow energy is erupting
17:31:53from the 38th layer of the earth's
17:31:55veins. You need to get there quickly.
17:31:57Huh? What? However, Su Chongqing did not
17:32:00elaborate and abruptly ended the
17:32:02communication. He didn't want to waste
17:32:04the other person's time. Anyway, the
17:32:06words have already been spoken. Whether
17:32:08Han Su believes Su Chongqing or not, and
17:32:11whether he will go to the 38th level of
17:32:12the earth vein is up to his own choice.
17:32:15He then left the lay lines as quickly as
17:32:17possible. But instead of going home, it
17:32:19flew towards the core management office
17:32:21of Linkon. Now that we've announced our
17:32:23breakthrough to the foundation
17:32:25establishment stage, there's no need to
17:32:27hide it any longer. Although it was 6
17:32:29months earlier than expected, it didn't
17:32:31matter. I might as well go directly to
17:32:33Elder Hua to collect the second acre of
17:32:35grade 2 spiritual land. Half an hour
17:32:37later, Su Chongqing saw Ping Shan. At
17:32:40this time, there are basically no
17:32:42people, so there is no need to queue.
17:32:44Upon entering the palace, Su Chongqing
17:32:46immediately saw Elder Hua. He
17:32:48immediately walked towards the other
17:32:50person, a smile appearing on his face.
17:32:52It's you. Elder Hua recognized the
17:32:54disciple who could grow top grade spirit
17:32:56rice at a glance. Su Chongqing cupped
17:32:59his hands in a respectful bow. Manager,
17:33:01I have broken through to the early stage
17:33:03of foundation establishment. Upon
17:33:06hearing this, Elder Hua was surprised.
17:33:08Not long ago, weren't you only at the
17:33:11late stage ofQi refining? Su Chongqing
17:33:13immediately recounted what had just
17:33:15happened deep within the Earth's veins
17:33:17in great detail. Specifically, it
17:33:20involves delivering wine to Han Xen,
17:33:22then encountering Yong Xinua, the
17:33:24manager of the Earth Vein, who tries to
17:33:26drive people away, and so on. After
17:33:28listening, Elder Huan nodded slightly.
17:33:31You actually have such great fortune
17:33:32that you can break through your realm
17:33:34without even needing the Foundation
17:33:36Establishment pill. It seems that
17:33:38although this child is only SOSO in
17:33:41terms of comprehension, he has an
17:33:42extremely high talent in planting and
17:33:44even his cultivation is very smooth.
17:33:47Everyone has their own opportunities,
17:33:49adventures, and fortunes. This thing is
17:33:51hard to explain, and sometimes all sorts
17:33:54of seemingly coincidental things do
17:33:55happen. If Such Chongqing hadn't known
17:33:58Han Xen, he wouldn't have been able to
17:34:00penetrate the 38th layer of the Earth's
17:34:02veins, nor would he have encountered the
17:34:03yellow chi that collapsed the spirit
17:34:05stone vein. and he certainly wouldn't
17:34:07have been able to take this opportunity
17:34:09to break through to the foundation
17:34:11establishment stage. When one
17:34:12coincidence after another is put
17:34:14together, it is no longer a coincidence.
17:34:17Such Chongqing scratched his head. I
17:34:19didn't expect that either. Hua chuckled
17:34:21and said, "As the saying goes, it's all
17:34:24about timing and fate. Now that you've
17:34:26broken through to the early stage of
17:34:28foundation establishment, you should
17:34:29receive the benefits and treatment that
17:34:31come with this level. First, you will be
17:34:34rewarded with one mid-grade spirit stone
17:34:36and one bottle of basic spirit pills
17:34:38each month. In addition, wood spirit
17:34:40root spirit farmers will receive an
17:34:42extra acre of grade two spirit field.
17:34:45Soon, Su Chongqing was the first to
17:34:47receive this month's reward. Although it
17:34:49wasn't much, it was at least better than
17:34:51when he was in theqi refining stage.
17:34:53Then, Elder Hua asked, "So, where did
17:34:56you choose for your second acre of
17:34:57spirit field?" Su Chonqing immediately
17:35:00said, "It's right next to my first acre
17:35:02of second grade spirit field." Elder
17:35:04Huan nodded and said, "All right, go
17:35:06back now. Soon, a disciple with the
17:35:09earth spirit route will come to your
17:35:10door to start clearing the wasteland."
17:35:12"Goodbye, manager." Such Chongqing bowed
17:35:15again, then turned and left. Watching
17:35:17the other person's receding figure,
17:35:19Elder Hua couldn't help but sigh. I've
17:35:22witnessed the rise of the immortal sect,
17:35:24and I've also seen cultivators fall one
17:35:26after another. How far can you go, kid?
17:35:29In the blink of an eye, Su Chongqing
17:35:31rode the large leaf grass back to his
17:35:33own spiritual field. As soon as it
17:35:35landed, Wong Wong and the guinea fowl
17:35:37surrounded it, sniffing around
17:35:39incessantly. Seeing this, Su Chongqing
17:35:42sat cross-legged, releasing the
17:35:44remaining attributeless spiritual energy
17:35:46within his body while waiting for the
17:35:48earth elemental disciples to come and
17:35:51cultivate the wasteland. Wong Wong
17:35:53absorbed the overflowing spiritual
17:35:55energy and soon closed his eyes in a
17:35:57daysaz. The guinea fowl shrank back to
17:35:59the ground, remaining motionless like a
17:36:01ball. After an unknown amount of time, a
17:36:04slight tremor was felt in the ground.
17:36:06Such Chonqing opened his eyes and saw a
17:36:08group of Earth Spirit Root disciples
17:36:10running towards him from not far away.
17:36:13Regardless of gender, each of them was
17:36:14robust and had the physique of an ox. Is
17:36:17it senior brother Sue? The one in the
17:36:19lead was a male disciple who was
17:36:21somewhat respectful. Su Chongqing stood
17:36:23up and smiled at the other person.
17:36:25That's right. I am Su Chongqing. It
17:36:28wasn't easy. It's been almost 4 years
17:36:30since I joined the daunting immortal
17:36:32sect and finally someone calls me senior
17:36:34brother the moment we meet. It has to be
17:36:36said that it does sound pleasant.
17:36:38Greetings senior brother Sue. Greetings
17:36:41senior brother Sue. Senior brother Sue.
17:36:43We're here to help you cultivate your
17:36:45second acre of grade two spirit field.
17:36:48Soon, the other disciples with earth
17:36:50elemental roots greeted him warmly. Su
17:36:52Chonqing was not stingy and immediately
17:36:54gave everyone a top quality
17:36:56black-skinned watermelon. After
17:36:58receiving the watermelon, the leading
17:37:00male disciple with the earth elemental
17:37:02root immediately introduced himself.
17:37:04Junior brother's name is Wu Guuang Man,
17:37:06and he is the leader who will help you
17:37:08clear the land this time. They are all
17:37:10members of the team. If you need help
17:37:12with tasks like loosening the soil or
17:37:14infusing the ground with energy in the
17:37:16future, feel free to ask us. No problem.
17:37:19No problem. Such Chonqing couldn't
17:37:21refuse outright, so he changed the
17:37:23subject and asked curiously, "How do you
17:37:25clear the land?" Wu Guang Man
17:37:27immediately explained, "First, we
17:37:29measure the ground location and
17:37:31distance. Then we loosen the soil to
17:37:33turn it over. Next, we infuse it with
17:37:36earth energy to form nutrient-rich black
17:37:38soil. This is the whole process for
17:37:41disciples with earth elemental roots.
17:37:43It's not troublesome, just a bit tiring.
17:37:45Such Chanqing then asked, "Is it charged
17:37:47or free?" Wu Guang Man smiled slightly.
17:37:50The sect will cover the cost for the
17:37:52first time. If you need to move the
17:37:54location or change the shape in the
17:37:56future, you will have to pay for the
17:37:57spirit stones or spirit rice yourself.
17:38:00Su Chongqing roughly understood, so he
17:38:02stopped wasting time. Then, Wu Guang Man
17:38:05called on the members of his team to
17:38:06begin measuring the ground. As for the
17:38:08location and shape of the second MOO of
17:38:10spiritual field, Such Chongqing had
17:38:12actually thought about it a long time
17:38:14ago. The first acre of grade 2 spiritual
17:38:16land is directly in front of my wooden
17:38:18house. So, the second acre of grade 2
17:38:20spiritual land has to be moved slightly
17:38:23to the left. In this way, not only will
17:38:25it look aesthetically pleasing and
17:38:27harmonious, but more importantly, it
17:38:29will be closer to the Rocky Mountain,
17:38:31allowing me to secretly move the mutated
17:38:33spiritual plants and black soil out at
17:38:36any time. Chapter 125. The green gourd
17:38:39mutates a new storage item. 3/3. Chapter
17:38:43125. The green gourd mutates. A new
17:38:45storage item. 3/3. Bang. Bang. Bang. As
17:38:48the vibrations continued, the originally
17:38:51uneven ground gradually became smooth.
17:38:53The stone turned to dust. The weeds
17:38:56turned into fragments. With the sun
17:38:58about to set, the second move of
17:38:59spiritual field was finally successfully
17:39:02cultivated. The next step is to expend
17:39:04earth elemental power to infuse the soil
17:39:06with earth energy compared to loosening
17:39:09the soil. This is the most difficult
17:39:11part and it cannot be done by one person
17:39:13alone. Thank you all for your hard work.
17:39:15Such Chongqing brought over a table and
17:39:18placed clean spring water on it. Wu
17:39:20Guang Man and the others would take a
17:39:21break from time to time and drink some
17:39:23of the still cool spring water. Everyone
17:39:25gathered around the new grade two spirit
17:39:28field, continuously circulating the
17:39:30earth attraction technique to draw in
17:39:32the surrounding earth energy and then
17:39:34pour it into the soil beneath their
17:39:36feet. Gradually, the originally
17:39:38yellowish brown and even somewhat dry
17:39:40soil under the transformation of a large
17:39:42amount of earth energy became sticky and
17:39:45even turned a little black, but it still
17:39:47doesn't look like true black soil. Su
17:39:49Chongqing couldn't help but ask, "This
17:39:51doesn't seem to be black soil, does it?"
17:39:53Wu Guang Man nodded slightly. Senior
17:39:56brother Su is right. This is only the
17:39:58initial black soil. In the future, you
17:40:00will have to use the slash and burn
17:40:02method to continuously allow the soil to
17:40:04absorb nutrients from the spiritual
17:40:06plants. You will even have to add
17:40:08spiritual beast excrement to it for
17:40:09several years. Their method of infusing
17:40:12the earth's energy is somewhat similar
17:40:14to forcing the growth of spiritual
17:40:16plants. Moreover, it will not quickly
17:40:18form nutrient-rich black soil. It has
17:40:20only reached the initial stage. Such
17:40:23Chanqing needs to nurture it little by
17:40:25little until it becomes the same color
17:40:26as the black soil in the adjacent acre
17:40:29of second grade spirit field before it
17:40:31can be considered complete. The whole
17:40:33process will be exceptionally long, but
17:40:35fortunately cultivators have no shortage
17:40:37of time. Okay, Su Chongqing kept it in
17:40:40mind. Wu Guang Man blinked. Of course,
17:40:43if senior brother Su wants to speed
17:40:45things up, he can ask us to infuse him
17:40:47with earth energy every now and then.
17:40:49This will speed up the formation process
17:40:51and improve the quality of your
17:40:52spiritual plants. Such Chongqing waved
17:40:55his hand. We'll talk about it later.
17:40:57Hiring a team with earth elemental roots
17:40:59would definitely cost a lot of spirit
17:41:01stones. So, it's better to just steal a
17:41:03little from the Rocky Mountain every
17:41:05day, even when you reach the foundation
17:41:07establishment stage. You must not be
17:41:09extravagant or wasteful, and you must
17:41:11not attract the attention of others.
17:41:13Another half hour passed, and it was
17:41:15completely dark. Wu Guang Man and the
17:41:17others said they needed to rest and
17:41:19wanted to go back to recover before
17:41:21finishing the rest the next day. To put
17:41:22it bluntly, the longer they delay, the
17:41:24more pay their entire team can get. Such
17:41:27Chongqing didn't care about this. Since
17:41:29it wasn't his money, there was no need
17:41:31to expose the thoughts of these Earth
17:41:33Spirit Root disciples. He might even
17:41:35have to cooperate with them in the
17:41:36future. After the people left, he turned
17:41:38and went into the cabin to start cooking
17:41:40dinner. Half an hour later, the fragrant
17:41:42food was placed on the dining table. A
17:41:45plate of tomatoes with white sugar. A
17:41:47plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
17:41:49Three cups of fresh tomato juice. In
17:41:51short, tonight's dinner was all about
17:41:53tomatoes. To celebrate acquiring the
17:41:55second acre of spirit field, some golden
17:41:57mutated spirit rice was specially
17:41:59steamed this time. I thought Wong Wong
17:42:02and the guinea foul would really like
17:42:03it. But after waiting for a long time,
17:42:05there was still no sound from outside.
17:42:07What's going on? Su Chongqing asked
17:42:10puzzled as he approached the door and
17:42:12looked to the other side. But they found
17:42:14that Wong Wong and Pearl Chicken were
17:42:16still fast asleep in the same spot where
17:42:18they had been sitting. Seeing this, he
17:42:20didn't disturb them, left some food
17:42:21behind, and started eating by himself.
17:42:24Tomatoes mixed with white sugar, each
17:42:26piece cut into a crescent shape. It
17:42:28looks bright red and translucent, and
17:42:30the flesh is full of juice. When the
17:42:32white sugar is first sprinkled on, each
17:42:35grain is distinct, like granular
17:42:37snowflakes. It's melted a bit now,
17:42:39blending with the tomato juice like a
17:42:41thick syrup. With one bite, the unmelted
17:42:44sugar is quite sweet and crunchy, while
17:42:46the sour taste of the tomato bursts
17:42:48forth as you continue chewing. The sweet
17:42:50and sour flavors mingled together,
17:42:53causing saliva to be secreted wildly in
17:42:55the mouth. The sweet and sour flavors
17:42:57were already appetizing, and the food
17:42:59was just what he wanted. Plus, he was in
17:43:02high spirits because of the happy
17:43:03occasion. So, Su Chongqing ate heartily
17:43:05and finished off his portion completely.
17:43:07They were practically licking the plate
17:43:09clean. After finishing his meal, he
17:43:11immediately washed the dishes and
17:43:13chopsticks, then took a bottle of
17:43:15premium spirit rice wine and slowly
17:43:17walked out of the house, plopping down
17:43:19on a creaking wooden chair. I looked up
17:43:21at the starry sky while drinking premium
17:43:23lingi wine. Their appetites were
17:43:25satisfied. Abundant spiritual energy
17:43:28brings a feeling of fullness. In
17:43:30addition, there were the familiar sounds
17:43:31of insects chirping and frogs croaking.
17:43:34The pleasant atmosphere made Su
17:43:36Chongqing cross his legs. he mumbled
17:43:38under his breath. Do you remember you
17:43:40said home is? The next day arrived. The
17:43:43autumn morning was slightly chilly. The
17:43:45leaves gradually turned yellow and
17:43:47withered and a leaf would fall from time
17:43:49to time. Such Chonqing opened the door
17:43:52and went out. He first glanced at Wong
17:43:54Wong and found that it was already
17:43:55awake. As soon as its owner arrived, the
17:43:58dog's eyes became quite fawning and its
17:44:00tail wagged wildly, but it remained
17:44:02lying down, showing no intention of
17:44:04getting up. It seems they are still
17:44:06adapting and it's unclear when they will
17:44:08be able to completely refine the
17:44:10spiritual energy. Su Chonqing looked at
17:44:12the guinea foul again and found that it
17:44:14was still asleep and had even started to
17:44:16shed feathers. Currently, the two
17:44:18children have undergone significant
17:44:20changes in their bodies after absorbing
17:44:22spiritual energy this time. Since that
17:44:24was the case, he didn't disturb them.
17:44:26After patting Wong Wong<unk>s head, he
17:44:28began his daily routine. First, clean up
17:44:31the dog poop and chicken poop at the
17:44:32entrance. Later, when he arrived at the
17:44:35spirit field, he absorbed a small amount
17:44:37of wood spirit energy into his body.
17:44:39Then, with a wave of his hand, he
17:44:41removed all the weeds around the spirit
17:44:43rice. Once all that was done, he started
17:44:46to use his finger techniques one by one.
17:44:48This time, let's start with three
17:44:50relatively rare spiritual plants. The
17:44:52first plant is a green gourd. The second
17:44:54plant is the fire vine. The third plant
17:44:57is giatricum candida. However, as soon
17:45:00as the right index finger landed on the
17:45:01first green gourd, a ding sound rang
17:45:04out. Huh? Su Chonqing asked in surprise.
17:45:07Then the green gourd in front of them
17:45:09began to change at a speed visible to
17:45:11the naked eye. Logically, as it grows,
17:45:14its size should gradually increase. In
17:45:16addition, Such Chongqing has been using
17:45:18the Chingan domain to force growth
17:45:20during this period. Therefore, the
17:45:22string of green gourds above is almost
17:45:24the size of an adult's palm. But
17:45:26nowadays, its color is becoming
17:45:28increasingly emerald green, and its size
17:45:30is constantly shrinking. Such Chonqing
17:45:33remembered clearly that there were three
17:45:34known mutation types of the green gourd.
17:45:37One, an oval-shaped gourd. Two, a small
17:45:40gourd with a bright green color. Three,
17:45:42a giant gourd with an enormous size.
17:45:44Currently, it appears that this mutation
17:45:47belongs to the second type. As time went
17:45:49on, it turned out exactly as predicted.
17:45:51Not only was its size reduced to that of
17:45:53a baby's fist, but its color was also
17:45:56emerald green. In particular, the number
17:45:58has exceeded 20, and they are still
17:46:00growing one after another. A mutated
17:46:02gourd is currently priced at 60
17:46:04mid-grade spirit stones on the market.
17:46:06If refined into storage items, one could
17:46:09sell for 300 mid-grade spirit stones.
17:46:11Chapter 126, the second moo of spiritual
17:46:14field, joy to share, 1/3. Chapter 126.
17:46:18The second moo of spiritual field, joy
17:46:21to be shared. One/3 42 small gourds of
17:46:24bright green color grew one after
17:46:26another from the entire gourd vine. If
17:46:28each one is refined into a storage item
17:46:30and then sold, it will yield 12,600
17:46:34mid-grade spirit stones, which is
17:46:36equivalent to 1.26 million low-grade
17:46:38spirit stones. Why does everyone want to
17:46:41obtain mutated spiritual plants? It's
17:46:43valuable, which is one of the main
17:46:45reasons. If you have even one mutated
17:46:48spiritual plant, becoming rich overnight
17:46:50is not a dream. Su Chongqing pondered.
17:46:53But we can only rely on a slow and
17:46:55steady approach. Alternatively, instead
17:46:58of refining it into a storage item, sell
17:47:00it directly and earn the cost price.
17:47:02Alternatively, find a trustworthy
17:47:04blacksmith and establish a partnership
17:47:06with them. But no matter which one you
17:47:08choose, you need to take it one step at
17:47:10a time. This can't be rushed. As the sun
17:47:12rose higher and higher, Su Chongqing
17:47:15summoned his companion lotus to
17:47:16accelerate its ripening. He had to
17:47:18harvest the crops before Wu Guang Man
17:47:20and the others arrived. Although the
17:47:22Earth spirit root may not be able to
17:47:24recognize every spiritual plant, but
17:47:26it's better to be safe than sorry, one
17:47:29should always be wary of others. After
17:47:31all, this is a valuable mutated
17:47:33spiritual plant, and we must not take it
17:47:35lightly. As time went by, the wood
17:47:38elemental power in the cheese sea was
17:47:40gradually depleted. And finally, before
17:47:42Wu Guang Man and the other earth
17:47:44elemental roots arrived, they all
17:47:46matured. Mutant green gourd. Mature
17:47:48abundant spiritual energy. No damage. It
17:47:52is worth noting that all the mutated
17:47:53green gourds grow from a single gourd
17:47:55vine. According to the records of Spirit
17:47:58Fields, as long as the gourd vine is not
17:48:00damaged, it can be harvested several
17:48:02times until its spiritual energy is
17:48:04exhausted. Therefore, although Su
17:48:06Chongqing picked up the sickle again, he
17:48:08did not cut the entire gourd vine, but
17:48:10only targeted the tendrils from which
17:48:12the gourds were growing. Aim the sickle,
17:48:14leaving about an inch of its length, and
17:48:16gently pull it back. With a click, the
17:48:19first mutated green gourd fell smoothly
17:48:21into his hand. It feels slightly cool to
17:48:24the touch, and you can feel the wood
17:48:26spirit energy contained within it. The
17:48:28concentration is decent, stronger than
17:48:30that of ordinary spiritual plants around
17:48:32it. Harvest one mutated green gourd and
17:48:35its lifespan will increase by 49 days.
17:48:38Harvesting 22 mutated green gourds
17:48:41increases lifespan by 1078 days.
17:48:44Harvesting 42 mutated green gourds
17:48:46increases lifespan by 208 days.
17:48:49Remaining lifespan 670 years. Such
17:48:53Chongqing was surprised. As expected of
17:48:55a mutated spiritual plant, they really
17:48:57gave a lot. Of course, the most
17:48:59important thing to mention is the
17:49:01phoenix feather that was harvested
17:49:03before as a single feather can increase
17:49:05one's lifespan by one year. After losing
17:49:07all the mutated green gourds, the entire
17:49:10gourd vine shrank at a visible rate with
17:49:12both the leaves and tendrils becoming at
17:49:14least half the size. Judging from its
17:49:17color, spiritual energy concentration
17:49:19and condition, it was not as good as the
17:49:21ordinary spiritual plants next to it.
17:49:24Fortunately, with careful nurturing,
17:49:26watering with spring water, providing
17:49:28spirit beast droppings, and the abundant
17:49:30nutrients of the black soil, it will
17:49:32soon be reborn. Once everything was
17:49:34settled, Su Chonqing used his pointing
17:49:37green finger technique on the remaining
17:49:38spiritual plants. Unfortunately, all the
17:49:41luck was used up on the green gourd, and
17:49:43none of the vegetables mutated
17:49:45afterward, resulting in failure.
17:49:47Fortunately, Su Chonqing was not a
17:49:49particularly greedy person. Even without
17:49:51the mutation of the spiritual plants, he
17:49:53was still very satisfied as long as he
17:49:55saw them growing stronger and stronger.
17:49:58Once everything was settled, it was 9:00
17:50:00a.m. Wu Guang Man and the others
17:50:02reappeared just like yesterday, running
17:50:04all the way from the Earth's veins.
17:50:07These Earth spirit roots move on the
17:50:08ground at a speed comparable to that of
17:50:11land spirit beasts and flying paper
17:50:13cranes. If one uses Earth escape
17:50:15technique, it can be even faster. Good
17:50:17morning, Senior Brother Sue. Senior
17:50:19brother Sue, I'm sorry to have kept you
17:50:21waiting. We<unk>ll get the last bit done
17:50:23today. These earth elemental spirit
17:50:25farmers are very friendly when facing
17:50:27wood elemental spirit farmers,
17:50:29especially those who are in the
17:50:31foundation establishment stage. Such
17:50:33Chongqing smiled slightly. Thank you for
17:50:35your trouble. In fact, only a small area
17:50:38remains without the infusion of earth
17:50:40energy. If I had just persevered a
17:50:42little longer yesterday, I definitely
17:50:44could have gotten it done. Now, although
17:50:46Wu Guang Man and the others have all
17:50:48arrived, they did not attack together.
17:50:50Instead, they split into two teams.
17:50:53After one team finishes teaching,
17:50:54another team takes over, and so on. What
17:50:57should have taken less than half an hour
17:50:59didn't finish until noon. Su Chongqing
17:51:01knew that these Earth spirit roots were
17:51:03hard-earned, so he didn't care. As long
17:51:05as the second acre of second grade
17:51:06spirit field was fine, that was all that
17:51:09mattered. Senior brother Sue, this is my
17:51:11communication talisman. If you need
17:51:13anything in the future, you can contact
17:51:15me anytime, and I will definitely come
17:51:17as quickly as possible. Wu Guang Man
17:51:19presented his communication talisman
17:51:21with both hands. No problem. No problem.
17:51:24Su Chongqing reached out and took it.
17:51:26Although he had Han Su<unk>s help, he
17:51:28still had to be prepared for anything.
17:51:30What if Han Su has something to do and
17:51:31can't come? Well, we're leaving. Wu
17:51:34Guang Man waved to the members of his
17:51:36team. Thank you for your hard work. Su
17:51:38Chongqing watched them leave. Then he
17:51:40turned around and came to the vicinity
17:51:42of his newly added second grade spirit
17:51:44field. The first moo of second grade
17:51:46spirit field had been used by other
17:51:48spirit farmers before, so it was
17:51:50acceptable in all aspects. The second
17:51:52acre was newly cleared by the earth
17:51:54spirit route, and it looks somewhat
17:51:56different, especially the taste. The
17:51:58first acre of grade 2 spiritual field,
17:52:01due to its black soil and previous slash
17:52:03and burn cultivation and fertilization,
17:52:05emitted a pungent odor similar to that
17:52:07of rotting fallen leaves. The newly
17:52:10added grade 2 spirit field has black
17:52:12soil that is in its initial stage. In
17:52:14addition, it has never been used before
17:52:16and there is neither spring water for
17:52:18irrigation nor fertilizer, so it only
17:52:20has a relatively faint earthy smell. The
17:52:23colors are also different. The left side
17:52:25is darker. The right side is more
17:52:27yellowish. Su Chongqing pondered. With
17:52:29two acres of grade two spirit fields,
17:52:32these spirit plants won't have to be
17:52:33crammed into one area. They can be
17:52:35planted separately. The first acre of
17:52:38second grade spirit field was not only
17:52:40planted with spirit rice, but also with
17:52:42various vegetables, and fourleaf clovers
17:52:44grew beside the irrigation ditch. If it
17:52:46weren't for the constant use of spirit
17:52:48beast manure as fertilizer, coupled with
17:52:50the occasional spiritual rain, this
17:52:52would actually be a planting method that
17:52:54consumes a lot of nutrients from the
17:52:56black soil. Of course, the biggest
17:52:58benefit of adding a second acre of
17:53:00spirit field is that it allows all the
17:53:02mutated spirit plants inside the stone
17:53:04mountain to be moved out without
17:53:06sunshine and rain. And with the area not
17:53:08being large enough, production has
17:53:10remained stagnant. Nowadays, as long as
17:53:12you disguise yourself a little,
17:53:14especially by placing it in a
17:53:16concealment array, you won't have any
17:53:18worries and can plant whatever you want.
17:53:20In this way, the yield of premium lingi
17:53:22rice remains at around 4,000 gene per
17:53:25mo. However, the yield of the mutated
17:53:27spirit rice will be greatly increased
17:53:29from now on. Furthermore, if Su
17:53:31Chongqing were to be more diligent, he
17:53:33could eat mutated spirit rice with a
17:53:35higher spiritual energy content every
17:53:37day from then on. Immediately
17:53:39afterwards, he took out communication
17:53:41talismans one by one from his small
17:53:43storage bag. Li Kai, Xiao, Xiua, Hubu,
17:53:47Jang Su, Hanen, Han Su, Binger, Chuchio.
17:53:51Since we're going to announce to the
17:53:52outside world that we've successfully
17:53:54established our foundation, we can no
17:53:56longer keep it a secret. You should
17:53:58especially tell those you know and share
17:54:00this joy. Hello, senior brotherly. It's
17:54:03me, Junior Brother Sue. Is there
17:54:05something you need? I have reached
17:54:07Foundation Establishment. Chapter 127.
17:54:10Taking turns to celebrate. Three
17:54:12unexpectedly arrive. February 3rd.
17:54:14Chapter 127. Taking turns to celebrate.
17:54:17Unexpectedly, the three of them.
17:54:19February 3rd. Except for Han Xen and Han
17:54:22Su who could not be contacted. The rest
17:54:24of the people who received the
17:54:25notification had almost the same
17:54:27reaction. What stunt? Not long ago, Su
17:54:31Chongqing said he was in the late stage
17:54:32ofQi refining. And now, not long after,
17:54:35he has actually broken through to the
17:54:37foundation establishment stage. This is
17:54:39incredible. Normally after the late
17:54:42stage ofqi refining, there is another
17:54:43minor realm or a stage where one is
17:54:46easily stuck, which is theqi refining
17:54:48perfection stage. Many people even need
17:54:51to use foundation building pills to
17:54:52break through to the next level.
17:54:54Unexpectedly, Su Chongqing suddenly
17:54:57announced to the public that he had
17:54:58successfully established the foundation.
17:55:01Liang Kai was stunned. You have reached
17:55:03the foundation establishment stage.
17:55:05Jeang Su exclaimed in disbelief. Already
17:55:08at the same level as me? Hubuay was both
17:55:11surprised and delighted. Old Su, wait
17:55:13for me. I'll bring some spirit beast
17:55:15meat over. Let<unk> celebrate properly.
17:55:18Xiao Zua suddenly dropped the fishing
17:55:20rod from his hand. His expression one of
17:55:22dejection. Is fishing really a dead end?
17:55:25Binger grinned and said,
17:55:27"Congratulations. It's a pity my older
17:55:29sister won't let me come to you." Chuio
17:55:31raised an eyebrow. I'm still
17:55:33participating in the Crossing the River
17:55:35tournament. We<unk>ll talk about it when
17:55:36I get back. I only know a few people for
17:55:38now and I've already notified everyone I
17:55:40could. Anyway, apart from Chu Chio and
17:55:43Binger, the others will all come to
17:55:45celebrate. Therefore, starting from
17:55:47noon, Su Chongqing was busy in the
17:55:49kitchen preparing various foods. They
17:55:51generously provided a portion of
17:55:53everything they had. Whether it was top
17:55:55grade spirit rice, top grade vegetables,
17:55:57top grade fruits, or top grade wines,
17:56:00the first person to arrive was Hubui.
17:56:02Upon hearing that Su Chongqing had
17:56:04successfully established his foundation,
17:56:06he immediately and excitedly slaughtered
17:56:08one of his own raised spirit pigs and
17:56:11then bought a lot of meat from spirit
17:56:12beasts that were over a hundred years
17:56:14old. While others were surprised and
17:56:16astonished, only Hubuay remained
17:56:18convinced. After all, once a spirit
17:56:21farmer reaches the foundation
17:56:22establishment stage, he will have 2
17:56:24acres of second grade spirit fields, at
17:56:26which point he will definitely need more
17:56:28spirit beast manure. Given their
17:56:30relationship, they naturally couldn't
17:56:32look for someone else. You're here. Such
17:56:34Chanqing handed over a slice of
17:56:36watermelon. Hubuay happily took a bite,
17:56:39his mouth immediately filled with
17:56:40sweetness. Then, while looking at the
17:56:42newly added spirit fields outside, he
17:56:45asked, "Old Sue, what do you plan to
17:56:47plant in your second acre of spirit
17:56:49fields?" Su Chongqing chopped pork ribs
17:56:52with a kitchen knife and replied, "I
17:56:54might plant some valuable spiritual
17:56:55plants." Hubui wholeheartedly agreed.
17:56:58When there is enough spiritual rice,
17:57:00making money should definitely be the
17:57:02priority. Cultivating immortality
17:57:04requires that wealth, companions,
17:57:07methods, and location are all
17:57:09indispensable. Wealth represents the
17:57:11elixir, food, clothing, and retreat
17:57:13expenses required for cultivation.
17:57:16Couple doesn't necessarily mean lovers.
17:57:18It can also refer to like-minded
17:57:20cultivation partners. The term law
17:57:22naturally refers to the techniques and
17:57:24spells used in cultivation. The land
17:57:27varies depending on the spiritual route.
17:57:29For a woods spiritual route, it is
17:57:31definitely a spiritual field. Su
17:57:33Chongqing smiled and said, "If you have
17:57:35any suggestions, you can speak up."
17:57:37Hubuay held a watermelon in his left
17:57:39hand and scratched his head with his
17:57:41right. If you ask me about things
17:57:42related to spirit beasts, I can talk a
17:57:44lot about them, but I really don't know
17:57:46much about planting. Su Chongqing nodded
17:57:49slightly to show his understanding. It's
17:57:51all right. Take your time eating. There
17:57:53are other people coming later. Not long
17:57:55after, the second person finally
17:57:57arrived. But to the surprise of both Su
17:57:59Chongqing and Hubugay, it wasn't Liang
17:58:02Kai or Xiao Xiua, but rather Zang Su.
17:58:05Master Sunno, now I should call you
17:58:07fellow Daist Su. Jeang Su descended from
17:58:09the sky on butterflies that kept
17:58:11changing their camouflage colors,
17:58:13holding a yellow spiritual plant in her
17:58:15hands. Su Chongqing quickly washed his
17:58:18hands and then led Hubu out to greet
17:58:20them. Senior brotherhang is too kind. In
17:58:23front of you, I will always be your
17:58:25junior brother. Jang Su was taken aback
17:58:27for a moment. Then her smile widened. No
17:58:30wonder you were able to successfully
17:58:31establish your foundation. Junior
17:58:33brother Su fellow Daist and Junior
17:58:36brother may seem to be just different in
17:58:38terms of address. In reality, this also
17:58:40represents the relationship between
17:58:42them. It must be said that this junior
17:58:44brother Sue is truly flawless in terms
17:58:46of his character. Some people may seem
17:58:48honest when they are at a lower level,
17:58:50but once they reach the same level, they
17:58:52immediately start to show their true
17:58:54colors. Jang Su had encountered similar
17:58:56situations more than once. However, Su
17:58:59Chongqing was different. Even though he
17:59:00had reached the same level as him, he
17:59:02remained humble, low-key, and honest,
17:59:05and was especially sincere in his
17:59:07dealings with others. Although Hubu
17:59:09wasn't familiar with him, he still bowed
17:59:11respectfully and said, "Senior
17:59:13brotherh." "Hello." Jang Su responded
17:59:16and then handed over the spiritual plant
17:59:18in his hand. Junior brother Su to
17:59:21celebrate your foundation establishment.
17:59:23I have specially prepared a sunflower.
17:59:25Thank you, senior brother. Such Chanqing
17:59:28hurriedly accepted the gift with both
17:59:30hands. The sunflower is actually a type
17:59:32of sunflower. Two flowers are the most
17:59:34famous in the daunting immortal sect.
17:59:36One of them was located at the core of
17:59:38the spiritual field. It was enormous,
17:59:41resembling a small golden sun. Almost
17:59:43all sunflowers originate from this
17:59:45plant. So it can be considered the
17:59:47mother plant. The other flower however
17:59:50has been refined into a magical artifact
17:59:52by the sword cultivator chin bailey. The
17:59:54sunflower, this spiritual plant has two
17:59:57functions. One is to absorb and store
17:59:59sunlight. One is to gather more
18:00:01sunlight. For the spiritual plants in
18:00:03the spiritual field, it can accelerate
18:00:05their growth. Of course, if there is
18:00:07only one flower, the amplification
18:00:09effect is not significant. Since it was
18:00:11a gift from Jeang Su, Su Chonqing
18:00:14naturally valued it highly. Looking at
18:00:16the extra acre of spirit field, Jeang Su
18:00:18couldn't help but nod, "That's great.
18:00:21With 2 acres of spirit field, the yield
18:00:23will double and we can earn more spirit
18:00:25stones." Su Chongqing placed the
18:00:28sunflower on the windowsill and then
18:00:29joked, "Compared to my senior brother,
18:00:31I'm definitely a nobody." Huh? Jang Su
18:00:34burst into laughter upon hearing this.
18:00:37Su Chongqing brought over a wooden
18:00:38chair. Senior brother, take a short
18:00:41rest. Senior brother Leang Kai should be
18:00:43coming over later. This time, I'll let
18:00:45you taste my cooking. When Jean Su heard
18:00:47that Le San Kai was coming, she
18:00:49originally wanted to leave, but now she
18:00:51immediately sat down. Of course, the
18:00:54environment, atmosphere, and daily
18:00:56necessities here are definitely not
18:00:58comparable to those at home. After a
18:01:00while, a third person appeared. Who?
18:01:03Xiao Xi, this fellow was holding several
18:01:05white fish in his hand. Su Chongqing
18:01:07went over to greet him. Old Xiao, you've
18:01:10arrived. Ziao Xa chuckled dryly. This is
18:01:13from this moment. Hubuay curled his lip
18:01:16and said, There's nothing shameful about
18:01:18buying it. Ziao Xua's smile froze, but
18:01:21he forced himself to continue. This is a
18:01:23red snapper I caught from a river near
18:01:25Spirit Beast Valley. Jang Su couldn't
18:01:28help but say, "This kind of fish has
18:01:30tender flesh and few bones, making it
18:01:32suitable for steaming." Su Chongqing
18:01:34took it, examining it as he said,
18:01:36"Senior brother is an expert." Jang Su
18:01:39said with considerable pride, "When it
18:01:41comes to eating, drinking, and enjoying
18:01:43life, no one in the entire Lion can
18:01:46compare to me." "All right, I'll listen
18:01:48to my senior brother and steam it." Su
18:01:50Chongqing didn't care about this. Then
18:01:53he took the red carp with its upturned
18:01:55mouth and turned to go into the kitchen.
18:01:57Because Jeang Su was present, Hubui and
18:01:59Xiao Zua didn't dare to speak freely and
18:02:02the atmosphere became a bit awkward.
18:02:04Fortunately, it wasn't long before
18:02:06someone appeared to break the deadlock.
18:02:08Naturally, it's Li Sanankai whom
18:02:10everyone is eagerly anticipating. Su
18:02:12Chongqing washed his hands again and
18:02:14went out to greet him. Senior brother
18:02:16Lee. Jang Su greeted him with a smile.
18:02:19Fellow Daoist Lee Sani. Li Sanankai was
18:02:22surprised. I didn't expect fellow Daist
18:02:24Jang to be here as well. Jang Su
18:02:26explained, "Junior Brother Su and I are
18:02:28old acquaintances." After Liang Kai
18:02:31landed on his flying paper crane, he
18:02:33took out a mirror from his storage bag.
18:02:35"Junior Brother Su, this is a gift I
18:02:37brought for you." Su Chaning took it and
18:02:39examined it carefully, then asked
18:02:41curiously, "Senior brother, what is
18:02:44this?" Jeang Su clapped his hands first
18:02:46and said, "This is a good thing. It's
18:02:48called the spirit mirror. As long as you
18:02:50inject your own spiritual power, you can
18:02:53freely check the transaction price of
18:02:54spiritual plants in the immortal sect
18:02:56that day. One side is worth 30 mid-grade
18:02:59spirit stones. Upon hearing that it
18:03:01would cost 30 mid-grade spirit stones,
18:03:03the three people next to him widened
18:03:05their eyes in surprise. Su Chongqing
18:03:08presented the gift with both hands and
18:03:09bowed again, saying, "Thank you, senior
18:03:12brother." Lienkai waved his hand. Don't
18:03:15be so polite. Such Chongqing pointed
18:03:17inside the room and said, "Senior
18:03:19brother, come inside." Before he could
18:03:22finish speaking, a paper crane drifted
18:03:24in from afar, carrying three people who
18:03:26surprised Su Chongqing, Hubu, and Xiaoi.
18:03:30Chapter 128, The Temptation of Barbecue,
18:03:33a dusk feast, 3/3. Chapter 128, The
18:03:36Temptation of Barbecue, a dusk banquet,
18:03:393/3. Su Chongqing was quite surprised.
18:03:42Why are they here? Jeang Su was taken
18:03:44aback. cousin. Only Liang Kai looked
18:03:47completely bewildered. He didn't
18:03:48recognize anyone and couldn't understand
18:03:50a word they said. Who are the three
18:03:52people? The B sisters and Jeang Shua.
18:03:55Whether it's by Linger, Baiju, or
18:03:57Jeangu, they haven't seen each other for
18:03:59at least 2 months. Ever since the
18:04:01Shoofing incident, the older sister
18:04:04Bhuer has forbidden her younger sister
18:04:06Binger from coming here. As for Jeang
18:04:09Shua, after learning of Su
18:04:11Chongqing<unk>s requirements for a
18:04:12Dowist partner, she also disappeared.
18:04:14Unexpectedly, all three women came over
18:04:17today. Although Binger was petite, she
18:04:19had large eyes that sparkled with
18:04:21intelligence. Baiju has a hot figure and
18:04:24a more mature appearance with a beauty
18:04:26mark on the lower left corner of her
18:04:28lip. Jeang, dressed in a white silk
18:04:31dress paired with her pure and innocent
18:04:33face, exuded an ethereal charm. Each of
18:04:36the three has their own style. Before
18:04:38the flying paper crane could land, Baiju
18:04:40spoke first. Fellow Daist Su, "Is it all
18:04:43right for us to come uninvited?" After
18:04:45realizing what was happening, Su
18:04:47Chongqing smiled and said, "Although it
18:04:49was unexpected, I am very happy to
18:04:51welcome you." Binger winked playfully
18:04:54and explained, "As soon as my sister
18:04:56heard that you had reached the
18:04:57foundation establishment stage, she
18:04:59insisted on dragging me and senior
18:05:01sisterhang over here." Baiju took out
18:05:04some pills from her storage bag and
18:05:05added, "Of course, we're not here to
18:05:07freload. These three bottles of
18:05:09Foundation Spirit pills are a gift for
18:05:11you." Su Chan took the three bottles of
18:05:14Foundation Spirit Pills from her hands,
18:05:17roughly guessing by Zuer<unk>'s
18:05:18intentions, but he didn't pay them any
18:05:20mind. Instead, he pointed to the wooden
18:05:23house behind him and said, "Welcome,
18:05:25welcome, everyone. Please come in."
18:05:27Jeang approached and smiled slightly.
18:05:30Fellow Daoist Su, it's been a long time.
18:05:32Looking into her bright eyes, Su
18:05:34Chongqing nodded slightly. It has indeed
18:05:37been a long time. At this moment, Jang
18:05:39Su asked curiously, "Cousin, do you know
18:05:42Junior Brother Su?" Jeang replied, "Yes,
18:05:45cousin." As for why, she didn't say.
18:05:48Soon, a group of people entered Su
18:05:50Chongqing<unk>s wooden house. It's<unk>
18:05:52not exactly spacious, but it can easily
18:05:54accommodate a few people. by Linger
18:05:56Bhuer Jeang Shu Jang Su and Li Sanankai
18:06:00sat in chairs. Hubuay and Xiao Xiu sat
18:06:03on the bed. Su Chan took out a top
18:06:05quality black watermelon, placed it on
18:06:07the table, quickly cut it open, and
18:06:09said, "Help yourself. There's more if
18:06:11you're not full. I'll go to the kitchen
18:06:13to cook." Bhuer leaned forward to
18:06:16observe, and quickly raised her
18:06:17eyebrows. As expected of a spirit
18:06:19farmer, even the spiritual energy
18:06:21contained in the fruit is so rich. by
18:06:24Linger's eyes darted around and seeing
18:06:26that no one was making a move, she
18:06:28grinned and immediately held the largest
18:06:31piece of watermelon in her hand. Taking
18:06:33a bite as if afraid someone would snatch
18:06:35it, she quickly got watermelon juice all
18:06:37over her face. But instead of feeling
18:06:39dirty, she ate it happily. Ever since
18:06:41her older sister by forbade her from
18:06:44getting close to Such Chongqing, she has
18:06:46never been able to eat such delicious
18:06:48fruits and vegetables again. Even if she
18:06:50buys them, the taste, texture, and
18:06:52spiritual energy concentration are
18:06:54several levels inferior. Seeing that
18:06:56Binger had started eating, everyone
18:06:58stopped being polite. Everyone has it.
18:07:01Even Leang Kai is no exception. Although
18:07:03in his eyes, Su Chongqing was more of an
18:07:05obedient junior brother. However, it
18:07:08must be admitted that in terms of
18:07:09cultivating spiritual plants, he is
18:07:11indeed inferior to his junior brother.
18:07:14Of course, the gap isn't just in the
18:07:16cultivation of spiritual plants. It's
18:07:18also enormous in terms of wine-making.
18:07:20Hubuay kept his eyes fixed on Baijour.
18:07:22After thinking for a moment, he stood up
18:07:24and said, "Well, I'll grill some meat
18:07:27for everyone." At this point, there was
18:07:29still some time before dinner. If we
18:07:31just wait like this, the atmosphere will
18:07:33only get more and more awkward. During
18:07:35this time, Hubuay traveled back and
18:07:38forth between the weapon forging peak
18:07:39and the spirit beast valley, learning a
18:07:41great deal along the way. Although
18:07:43everyone has different genders,
18:07:45spiritual roots, and levels of
18:07:47attainment, they are surprisingly
18:07:48similar in one thing. What? That's
18:07:51delicious food. Everyone loves delicious
18:07:53food. No one will refuse it. Hubu's
18:07:56specialty is roasted spirit beast meat.
18:07:59I'll help you. Ziao Xuf followed the
18:08:01other person out of the wooden house as
18:08:03he was also unaccustomed to this
18:08:05atmosphere. Apart from Su Chongqing, the
18:08:08only people left in the room were Baiju,
18:08:10Binger, Jeang Shu, Jang Su, and Li
18:08:13Sanankai. Jang Su and Jeang Schwen knew
18:08:15each other. They were even cousins. We
18:08:18don't have much contact, or you could
18:08:19even say we don't have much contact at
18:08:21all. If it weren't for Jeangs
18:08:23disappearance, the two of them would
18:08:24never have met. As for Le Sanankai,
18:08:27since he didn't know anyone, he simply
18:08:29didn't say a word. On the contrary, the
18:08:31three female cultivators were more
18:08:33relaxed. They were either cutting
18:08:34watermelons or eating other fruits and
18:08:37vegetables and even planned to go to the
18:08:39kitchen to help. Su Chongqing decisively
18:08:41refused. Sorry, I don't like anyone
18:08:44around when I'm cooking. You guys go do
18:08:46whatever you want. Upon hearing this,
18:08:48Jeanga had no choice but to turn around
18:08:50and leave the wooden house heading
18:08:52towards the doghouse. Wong was lying
18:08:54comfortably when it heard someone
18:08:56approaching. Thinking it was its owner,
18:08:58it immediately put on a fawning smile.
18:09:00But when it saw who it was, its
18:09:02expression froze and its pupils shrank
18:09:04instantly. The next second, it jumped
18:09:07out of its kennel in fright, barking
18:09:09loudly as it disappeared at the end of
18:09:11the ridge. Uh Jeang Schwep paused for a
18:09:14moment, then turned her gaze to the
18:09:15chicken coupe on the other side. Cuckoo!
18:09:18The guinea foul blinked, suddenly having
18:09:20a bad feeling. The next second, it was
18:09:22grabbed by a pair of evil big hands and
18:09:25then frantically needed. It wasn't until
18:09:27this moment that the guinea foul finally
18:09:28understood why Wong Wong had reacted so
18:09:31strongly. Unfortunately, I realized it
18:09:33too late. Hearing the commotion outside,
18:09:36Su Chongqing looked sympathetic and
18:09:38sighed. It seems Wong Wong hasn't been
18:09:40able to sleep these past few days.
18:09:42Strangely enough, Gui wasn't afraid of
18:09:44anyone else, but he was afraid of Jeang
18:09:47Shua. At this moment, Jang Su in the
18:09:49living room asked, "Fellow Dowist Lee, I
18:09:51heard that your cousin Lee Lingbi hunted
18:09:53down a great demon that is over 500
18:09:56years old in the central region." Li
18:09:58Sanankai put down the watermelon in his
18:10:00hand and replied, "To be precise, it was
18:10:03a powerful demon that Lingi and several
18:10:05other members of the demon hunting team
18:10:07hunted down together. Although Lee Ling
18:10:10by possessed high aptitude, spiritual
18:10:12roots, and comprehension, he was
18:10:14ultimately just a cultivator who had
18:10:16reached the foundation establishment
18:10:18stage. In the central region, the main
18:10:20battlefield between humans and demons.
18:10:22Even a single powerful demon is over 500
18:10:25years old, and their strength should not
18:10:27be underestimated. Moreover, battles
18:10:30between humans and monsters are rarely
18:10:32one-on-one. They are almost always team
18:10:34battles. Different spiritual roots
18:10:36produce different effects and everyone
18:10:38needs to cooperate with each other. Jang
18:10:40Su said with a hint of flattery. Even
18:10:43among the core disciples, few dare to go
18:10:45to such a dangerous place as the central
18:10:47region. Leing<unk>s courage to go is
18:10:49already quite remarkable. I greatly
18:10:52admire his boldness and courage. Li
18:10:54nodded slightly, agreeing with this.
18:10:57Although the immortal sect has many core
18:10:59disciples, very few have actually been
18:11:01to the central region. Most of them
18:11:03explore, adventure, and wander around
18:11:05the vicinity of the immortal sect. In
18:11:07fact, Leilingai had no choice to break
18:11:10through to the Earth golden core. He had
18:11:12to rely on the core parts of five great
18:11:14demons. And the deeper his cultivation,
18:11:17the higher the success rate of the
18:11:18breakthrough. The only place they could
18:11:20find it was the battlefield in the
18:11:21central region. After a while, the aroma
18:11:24of roasted meat wafted in from outside.
18:11:26Ziao Xua walked in carrying two skewers
18:11:29of grilled meat coated with barbecue
18:11:30seasoning. Please try them and see how
18:11:33they taste. If you need any
18:11:34modifications, I will pass them on to
18:11:36Hubu. Liang Kai and Jeang Su exchanged a
18:11:39glance, then each took a string of them.
18:11:41Although they hadn't eaten yet, the
18:11:43aroma emanating from the grilled meat
18:11:45wetted their appetites. In addition,
18:11:47after being coated with barbecue
18:11:49seasoning, it has a layer of rather
18:11:51bright red oil on top. Therefore, it
18:11:54looks exceptionally tempting. Liang Kai
18:11:56and Jeang Su immediately took a bite.
18:11:58Its crispy exterior makes a clear crunch
18:12:00sound. When the meat is bitten open, the
18:12:03oil and juices inside burst out.
18:12:05Instantly, a rich savory flavor ravage
18:12:08the mouth. Adding barbecue seasoning
18:12:11elevates the flavor of the grilled meat
18:12:12to its peak. It's both numbing and spicy
18:12:15and so addictive that you can't stop
18:12:17eating it. At this moment, Liai finally
18:12:20understood why Su Chongqing and others
18:12:22were able to make a fortune by setting
18:12:24up stalls at Casting Peak. This one
18:12:26serving of grilled meat alone is enough
18:12:28to attract a large number of customers.
18:12:30Even Jang Su, who is very picky about
18:12:33food, gave a thumbs up at this moment.
18:12:35Delicious, delicious. Xiaozi smiled and
18:12:38said, "We've only learned a tiny
18:12:40fraction of Su Ching skills." Upon
18:12:43hearing this, Jang Su, Liang Kai, and
18:12:46the B sisters all widened their eyes.
18:12:48Such delicious barbecue was only a small
18:12:50fraction of what Su Chongqing had eaten.
18:12:53Does that mean this person is extremely
18:12:55skilled in cooking? Suddenly, everyone
18:12:57was filled with anticipation. As time
18:12:59went by, the sky grew darker and darker.
18:13:02As dusk settled, Su Chongqing called out
18:13:05from the kitchen, "Dinner's ready."
18:13:07Chapter 129. A lively atmosphere. See
18:13:10you tomorrow, Junior Brother. 1-3.
18:13:12Chapter 129. Lively atmosphere. See you
18:13:15tomorrow, Junior Brother. 1-3. As soon
18:13:18as they heard Su Chongqing<unk>s voice,
18:13:20everyone gathered around the dining
18:13:22table. Three cold dishes. One dish is
18:13:24tomatoes mixed with white sugar. One
18:13:26dish is cold watermelon rind salad. One
18:13:29dish is smashed cucumber. Crushed white
18:13:31sugar sprinkled on red tomatoes combined
18:13:34with juice that resembles sugar syrup
18:13:36makes even a simple cold dish look
18:13:38delicious. Watermelon rind, which is
18:13:40often disliked, is seasoned with
18:13:42slightly salty soy sauce, which not only
18:13:44preserves the crispness of the flesh,
18:13:46but also adds a richer color. The
18:13:48cucumbers are first chilled in slightly
18:13:50cold spring water, then crushed with the
18:13:52back of a knife to loosen their shape. A
18:13:55little minced garlic, a little chili
18:13:56oil, and a little aged vinegar are then
18:13:59added, creating a sour and spicy flavor
18:14:01with a sweet aftertaste that is very
18:14:03appetizing. Next came six hot dishes.
18:14:06Tomato and egg stir fry, garlic pork
18:14:08belly, sweet and sour pork ribs, brace
18:14:11pork belly with secret recipe, winter
18:14:13melon and pork rib soup, and steamed red
18:14:15lipped fish. Every dish was visually
18:14:18appealing and had an enticing aroma. For
18:14:20the rice, I cooked a pot of lean meat
18:14:22porridge and steamed some premium spirit
18:14:24rice. The drinks are the same as always
18:14:27with unlimited supply of premium lingi
18:14:29wine. Actually, these are just everyday
18:14:31dishes. Since Su Chongqing transmigrated
18:14:34to this world of cultivation, his
18:14:36biggest hobby besides farming has been
18:14:38researching food. So, his cooking skills
18:14:40have become more and more proficient.
18:14:42Wow. Binger's eyes widened and saliva
18:14:45dripped from the corner of her mouth,
18:14:47making the maid extremely hungry. Baiju
18:14:49looked on incredulously. I've never seen
18:14:51so many of these dishes before. Looking
18:14:54at the table laden with delicious food,
18:14:56Jeang's heart began to race. She
18:14:59murmured, "Isn't this exactly the scene
18:15:01I've always dreamed of?" Li gave a
18:15:03bitter smile. It seems that my cooking
18:15:05skills are indeed not very good. Jang Su
18:15:08gave him another thumbs up and couldn't
18:15:10help but praise. Junior Brother Su,
18:15:12you're amazing. Although Hubui and Xiao
18:15:15Xiua had already witnessed Su
18:15:17Chonqing<unk>s culinary skills, they
18:15:19were still speechless upon seeing such a
18:15:20sumptuous dinner, unsure of what to say
18:15:23for a moment. Su Chonqing wiped his
18:15:25hands clean with a rag, then said with
18:15:27some regret, "It's a pity that the
18:15:29preparations weren't sufficient and it
18:15:30was a bit rushed. Otherwise, we could
18:15:32have made more delicious food." Binger
18:15:35quickly replied, "It's already very
18:15:37good." Jeangu nodded in agreement. Yes,
18:15:40yes. Su Chongqing smiled slightly upon
18:15:43hearing this, then pointed to the food
18:15:45on the table and said, "Then everyone,
18:15:47please don't be shy. Let's eat."
18:15:50Immediately, everyone picked up their
18:15:51bowls and chopsticks. Upon tasting it,
18:15:54they were immediately amazed, finding it
18:15:56to be divine. Stir-fried eggs with
18:15:58tomatoes. The sweet and sour sauce
18:16:00coating the golden and fluffy scrambled
18:16:02eggs is both appetizing and perfect with
18:16:05rice. White meat itself doesn't have
18:16:07much flavor, but after adding garlic
18:16:09sauce, it seems to gain a soul. The fat
18:16:11is smooth, and the lean meat is tender,
18:16:14making it more and more addictive. The
18:16:15sweet and sour pork ribs are crispy on
18:16:18the outside and tender on the inside,
18:16:20coated with a layer of clear sweet and
18:16:22sour sauce. When you bite into them, you
18:16:24get a crispy and sweet caramelized
18:16:26flavor, as well as a slightly sour taste
18:16:28from the vinegar. Binger couldn't help
18:16:30but lick her fingers after eating them.
18:16:32The brazed pork belly made with a secret
18:16:34recipe is rich and dark in flavor with a
18:16:37slightly wobbly texture. It's fatty but
18:16:40not greasy, tender and flavorful. Winter
18:16:42melon and pork rib soup has a clear
18:16:44broth with a melon flesh almost
18:16:46transparent and a light, slightly sweet
18:16:49taste. Steamed red snapper has snow
18:16:51white, tinder flesh with no fishy smell,
18:16:54retaining its original flavor. Seeing
18:16:56everyone enjoying their meal, Su
18:16:58Chonqing felt very satisfied.
18:17:00Immediately, he picked up the premium
18:17:02spirit rice wine and personally poured
18:17:04everyone a full cup. Cheers. Everyone
18:17:07put down their bowls and chopsticks and
18:17:09picked up their wine glasses. Bhuer
18:17:11glared at her younger sister and said,
18:17:13"You can't drink alcohol yet." Such
18:17:16Chanqing waved his hand. It's okay. The
18:17:18alcohol content isn't high and it tastes
18:17:21sweet and sour. He Binger grinned and
18:17:24immediately took a bite. Sure enough, it
18:17:26was sweet and sour. The wine was good
18:17:28and the food was good. Everyone
18:17:30thoroughly enjoyed the meal. From dusk
18:17:32until midnight, which is 11 p.m. As it
18:17:35was getting late, everyone reluctantly
18:17:37got up to say goodbye. Jang Su summoned
18:17:39her personal transport butterfly. Thank
18:17:42you very much for your hospitality,
18:17:43Junior. Brother Su Bhuer wiped the oil
18:17:46off her sister's face and said, "Let's
18:17:48go back." Hubu and Xiao Zua walked
18:17:51together, saying, "We won't bother you
18:17:53any longer." After much deliberation,
18:17:56Liengai finally managed to utter three
18:17:58words. See you tomorrow. Jeang Shu
18:18:01stayed behind last, staring intently at
18:18:03Su Chongqing. She opened her mouth, but
18:18:06couldn't utter a single word. A hint of
18:18:08regret lingered in her eyes before she
18:18:10left with the B sisters. Su Chongqing
18:18:13bowed in the direction the group had
18:18:14left, saying, "Goodbye, everyone. Thank
18:18:17you for your company." The once lively
18:18:19wooden house was soon left with only one
18:18:22person, one dog, and one chicken. From
18:18:24bustling to deserted, it only takes a
18:18:27moment. Su Chongqing washed the dishes
18:18:29and tidied up the trash. Then he took a
18:18:31bottle of premium yellow rice wine and
18:18:33went outside. But this time, instead of
18:18:35sitting at the door, he jumped up and
18:18:37onto the roof. Lying there gazing at the
18:18:40stars and full moon in the night sky,
18:18:42feeling the quietude after the hustle
18:18:44and bustle, he murmured, raising a cup
18:18:46to invite the bright moon. Let's<unk>
18:18:48drink together. The next day, Su
18:18:51Chonqing woke up on the roof. The autumn
18:18:53mornings grow colder day by day.
18:18:55Fortunately, he was a cultivator and had
18:18:57awakened both wood and fire spiritual
18:18:59roots. Although I could keenly sense the
18:19:02temperature changes, I did not
18:19:03experience any discomfort. After leaping
18:19:05off the roof, Su Chonqing couldn't help
18:19:08but stretch and make an sound. The bones
18:19:10all over his body were crackling and
18:19:12popping like popping beans. After
18:19:14staying up all night, Wong Wong emerged
18:19:16from its kennel looking slightly tired
18:19:18and staggered forward. Such Chongqing
18:19:21squatted down, stroked the dog's head,
18:19:23and chuckled. I knew you couldn't sleep.
18:19:25Wong opened his mouth and let out a long
18:19:27yawn. His eyes started to wander, which
18:19:30showed how torturous last night must
18:19:32have been. Such Chongqing glanced at the
18:19:34guinea foul in the coupe again, and
18:19:35realized that something was wrong with
18:19:37them, too. It used to sleep right in the
18:19:39middle of the chicken coupe. But this
18:19:41time, it actually huddled in the deepest
18:19:43corner, curled up into a ball. Sure
18:19:45enough, both children fell victim to
18:19:47Jeang's poisonous hands. Next, Such
18:19:50Chongqing began his daily routine. This
18:19:53time however he targeted the second acre
18:19:55of second grade spiritual land. First
18:19:58the withered mutated gourd vines were
18:20:00transplanted and used to create a fence
18:20:02around the outermost layer. However, a
18:20:05square spiritual field has a side length
18:20:07of 20 to 30 m. Although the gourd vine
18:20:09has undergone mutation, it is still less
18:20:12than 10 m long. Therefore, it is not
18:20:14realistic to completely enclose the
18:20:16area. But for now, this is the only way
18:20:18we can do it and we'll take it one step
18:20:20at a time later. Although Su Chongqing
18:20:23has announced that he has successfully
18:20:24established his foundation, he will
18:20:26continue to do what he did before and
18:20:28nothing will change. Moreover, he
18:20:30wouldn't let the second acre of
18:20:32spiritual land be planted immediately.
18:20:34In any case, we must first fertilize
18:20:36with spirit beast dung, then send down
18:20:39some spirit rain, and then practice
18:20:41slash and burn agriculture. Only after
18:20:43all these steps are completed can the
18:20:44two acres of spirit fields be cultivated
18:20:47simultaneously. As morning approached,
18:20:49the small storage bag vibrated. "Senior
18:20:51brotherly Lee, Junior Brother Sue, the
18:20:53orchids here are ripe. Come and harvest
18:20:56them." "Uh, okay." Su Chongqing then
18:20:58understood why the other party had said,
18:21:00"See you tomorrow." Chapter 130. Good
18:21:03things happen one after another, but the
18:21:05attempt to freeload a meal fails again.
18:21:07February 3rd. Chapter 130. Good things
18:21:10come one after another, but the attempt
18:21:11to freeload a meal fails again. February
18:21:143rd. because he had to help senior
18:21:16brother Lee harvest the colorful
18:21:17orchids. Su Chonqing put aside what he
18:21:20was doing. After preparing breakfast and
18:21:22lunch for the two little ones, I
18:21:23immediately left, stepping on the large
18:21:25leafd grass. Before long, they arrived
18:21:28at the location of Leansai's spiritual
18:21:30field and found that he was already
18:21:32waiting in the pavilion. Such Chonqing
18:21:35controlled the large leafed grass to
18:21:37land and chuckled. Senior brother, I'm
18:21:39here. Leankai nodded. The orchids are
18:21:42ripe. You can harvest them at any time.
18:21:44Upon hearing this, Su Chanching glanced
18:21:47at the spirit fields on both sides and
18:21:49discovered that the previously mutated
18:21:50golden spirit rice had increased from
18:21:53one plant to dozens, a significant
18:21:55increase in quantity. Before the other
18:21:57party could ask, Leang Kai explained
18:21:59directly. Next, I will gradually reduce
18:22:02the amount of normal spirit rice and
18:22:04focus on planting mutated golden spirit
18:22:06rice. Su Chongqing asked in surprise,
18:22:09why is that? For the spirit farmers, the
18:22:11lack of a stable supply of spirit rice
18:22:13is tantamount to losing income. Although
18:22:16the value of the mutant golden spirit
18:22:18rice is quite high, its cultivation
18:22:20period is exceptionally long. Moreover,
18:22:23and most importantly, an array capable
18:22:25of absorbing metal spiritual energy
18:22:27needs to be installed. Leankai said
18:22:29seriously, the reason for doing this is
18:22:31naturally to increase Ling's chances of
18:22:34breaking through to the earth grade
18:22:35golden core. After all, he has three
18:22:38spiritual roots, so it's best for him to
18:22:40eat three different types of spiritual
18:22:42rice. Such Chaning suddenly realized, "I
18:22:45see. If there is no mutated spirit rice,
18:22:48the best spirit rice should definitely
18:22:50be chosen first. In terms of absorption,
18:22:52transformation, and enhancement, the
18:22:55same properties are better. In fact,
18:22:57whether Su Chongqing or Lee Sanankai
18:22:59will take off in the future depends
18:23:00mainly on whether Leingai is a strong
18:23:02enough backer and whether they can break
18:23:04through to the Earth Grade Golden Course
18:23:06stage. If successful, their status and
18:23:08position will rise accordingly. However,
18:23:11if they fail, although they will still
18:23:13retain their status as the opponent's
18:23:14core disciple, their resources will be
18:23:16greatly reduced and they may not even be
18:23:19able to support their team. Ultimately,
18:23:21in the world of cultivation, strength
18:23:23reigns supreme. Earth grade golden
18:23:25elixir is awesome. A person's character
18:23:27and inner strength are not impressive.
18:23:30Why did chauffe become possessed by a
18:23:32demon? It's because he couldn't accept
18:23:33the result of failing to break through
18:23:35to the earth golden core stage. Everyone
18:23:38has to accept reality, but whether they
18:23:40can withstand it is a big question. Then
18:23:43Su Chongqing took off his shoes, took a
18:23:45sickle, and entered the spirit field.
18:23:47Since it wasn't my first time harvesting
18:23:49rainbow orchid, I've become increasingly
18:23:51skilled at it. Colorful orchid, mature,
18:23:54no damage, abundant spiritual energy.
18:23:57Today's highlights, tomorrow's best. Su
18:24:00Chongqing scanned with his spiritual
18:24:02sense and discovered that senior brother
18:24:04Lee's planting ability had improved. In
18:24:06the past few times, there was always a
18:24:08difference of two or 3 days. This time,
18:24:11I was only one day away from reaching
18:24:13the highest level. The closer the time
18:24:15of cultivation is to the quality or top
18:24:17grade, the more advanced the planting
18:24:19technique. It seems that it wasn't just
18:24:21me who improved during this period.
18:24:23Others did too. But as usual, Su
18:24:25Chongqing didn't say anything to remind
18:24:27him. Although the two are very familiar
18:24:29with each other, there is absolutely no
18:24:31need for this. Even if he reaches the
18:24:34foundation establishment stage, he still
18:24:36has to keep a low profile. You must not
18:24:38attract the attention of anyone,
18:24:40especially acquaintances. Harvesting one
18:24:42premium variegated orchid will increase
18:24:44its lifespan by 5 days. Harvesting 500
18:24:48premium orchid plants, increasing their
18:24:50lifespan by 2500 days. Harvested 114
18:24:54high-quality orchids with a lifespan
18:24:56increased by 5570 days. Remaining
18:24:59lifespan 685 years. Compared to last
18:25:03time, it's 5 days shorter. However,
18:25:05there's not much difference between a
18:25:07little more and a little less. Not
18:25:09everyone has the systems assistance like
18:25:11Su Chongqing, nor can they master the
18:25:13techniques to the maximum level and
18:25:15accurately control their movements. For
18:25:17the others, it would be quite good if
18:25:19they could get close to the previous
18:25:20number. Liang Kai handed over a glass of
18:25:22wine. Junior brother, you've worked
18:25:25hard. Such Chan took it and asked with a
18:25:28chuckle, "Senior brother, are you about
18:25:30to reach the midfoundation establishment
18:25:32stage in your cultivation?" Li Sanankai
18:25:34was quite surprised to hear this and
18:25:36asked curiously, "How did you know?" Su
18:25:38Chongqing pointed to the empty space on
18:25:40the other side and said, "You've already
18:25:42started measuring the area of the third
18:25:44moo of spirit field." Li was stunned for
18:25:47a moment, then admitted with a ry smile.
18:25:50I forgot about that. Since losing to his
18:25:52childhood sweetheart, Hwan, in the
18:25:54forging peak arena, he has been secretly
18:25:56working hard to improve his cultivation
18:25:58level and strength as much as possible.
18:26:01Perhaps it was this persistence that
18:26:02brought them rewards. We are now only
18:26:04one step away from the mid-stage of
18:26:06foundation building. Su Chongqing said
18:26:09with envy, "3 acres of second grade
18:26:11spirit fields can bring in at least 500
18:26:13mid-grade spirit stones every year."
18:26:16Liengai joked, "I can't compare to you.
18:26:18You can easily make a dozen or 20 coins
18:26:20a day by doing some business." Su
18:26:22Chongqing waved his hand. Before there
18:26:25were many people joining, so we could
18:26:27make some money. But since what happened
18:26:28with Su Ming, the number has been
18:26:30decreasing day by day. After the formal
18:26:33disciple competition ends, "I guess we
18:26:36won't be able to make any money." The
18:26:38two drank and chatted, Su Chongqing
18:26:40vaguely sensed that the relationship
18:26:41between the two had become closer since
18:26:43yesterday's dinner. In private, Liang
18:26:46Kai no longer displayed this serious
18:26:48image of a senior brother and appeared
18:26:50particularly relaxed. Suddenly, Su
18:26:52Choning<unk>s storage bag vibrated
18:26:54again. He picked it up and saw that it
18:26:56was a communication talisman flashing
18:26:58brightly. However, he didn't answer the
18:27:00call immediately. Instead, he looked at
18:27:02Li Sang Kai on the other end and waited
18:27:05until Le San Kai had no objections
18:27:07before starting the conversation. Hello,
18:27:09Junior Brother Su. It's me. Is there
18:27:11something you need? Senior brother
18:27:13Jeang. Junior brother, do you remember I
18:27:15told you before that I was going to the
18:27:17alchemy pavilion to find someone? I
18:27:19remember. I've been waiting for your
18:27:21notification. Junior brother, are you
18:27:23free today? I think so. All right. Come
18:27:26to my house this afternoon and I'll take
18:27:27you to the alchemy pavilion. The
18:27:29conversation ended and Su Chongqing put
18:27:32down the communication talisman feeling
18:27:34quite expectant. Li Sanankai stood up
18:27:36and walked towards the harvested orchids
18:27:39saying, "If you have something to do, go
18:27:41ahead and do it." Su Chongqing glanced
18:27:43at the sun in the sky and seeing that it
18:27:46was already noon, reminded him. Isn't it
18:27:48almost noon? Leans's body stiffened for
18:27:51a moment, but he quickly recovered. Oh
18:27:53dear. I suddenly remembered that there
18:27:55is something I haven't taken care of
18:27:57yet. I have to go out later, so it seems
18:27:59I can't entertain you. Su
18:28:01Chongqing<unk>s lips twitched several
18:28:03times as he listened to the excuse the
18:28:05other party had made up on the spot.
18:28:07Good grief, so they're not including
18:28:08lunch. Since his attempt to freload a
18:28:10meal failed, he had no choice but to get
18:28:13up and leave. Instead of going home, he
18:28:15flew directly towards Jeang Su<unk>s
18:28:17spiritual field. Since senior brother
18:28:19Lee doesn't provide lunch, that senior
18:28:21brother Jeang can't just ignore it, can
18:28:23he? To be fair, Jeang Su is someone who
18:28:26knows how to enjoy life, so she puts a
18:28:28lot of thought into food. Before long,
18:28:30as he watched the 10 acres of spiritual
18:28:32fields draw ever closer, Su Chongqing
18:28:35grew increasingly excited. Once they got
18:28:37close, they immediately controlled the
18:28:40large leafed grass to land and then
18:28:42called out in front of the fence gate,
18:28:43"Senior brother Jeang. Senior brother
18:28:46Jeang. Senior brother Jeang." However,
18:28:48there was no sound from inside. Su
18:28:50Chanching<unk>s heart skipped a beat and
18:28:52he suddenly had a bad feeling. He
18:28:54immediately took out the other party's
18:28:56communication talisman from his small
18:28:58storage bag and quickly infused it with
18:29:00what? Elemental power. Hello, senior
18:29:02brother Jeang. I'm at the door. Where
18:29:04are you? I wasn't home for lunch.
18:29:07Chapter 131. Old friends reunited thanks
18:29:10to senior brother Su. 3/3. Chapter 131.
18:29:13Old friends meet again. Thanks to senior
18:29:15brother Sue. March 3rd. Such Chanqing
18:29:18was stunned after failing to get a free
18:29:19meal twice. Looking at the communication
18:29:22talisman in his hand, he was speechless
18:29:24for a moment. On the other side, seeing
18:29:26that there was no further movement, Jang
18:29:28Su proactively disconnected the
18:29:30communication. Suddenly, a questioning
18:29:33voice came from behind. Are you Su Chan?
18:29:36Su Chongqing turned around and saw that
18:29:38the person was not tall and looked
18:29:40somewhat mature, but looked quite
18:29:42familiar. After thinking for a while, he
18:29:44suddenly realized Xiaoing I, Xiaoing,
18:29:47Xiao, Xi Yao, and Linen became formal
18:29:50disciples together at that time.
18:29:52However, Xiao Yingy<unk>s aptitude was
18:29:54low and her talent in cultivating
18:29:55spiritual plants was relatively poor.
18:29:57Therefore, she was 100 gene short in the
18:30:00third assessment and failed the
18:30:01assessment. Originally, she could not
18:30:03become a formal disciple. Later, she
18:30:06followed Jangir and became a tenant
18:30:08farmer, which was how she became a
18:30:10formal disciple. However, compared to a
18:30:12normal Jinan, it falls short in many
18:30:14aspects. All the yield of the spirit
18:30:16rice that Xiao and carefully cultivated
18:30:19had to be handed over to Jeang Air. But
18:30:21the cultivation resources she received
18:30:23each month were disproportionately
18:30:25small, even very little. His cultivation
18:30:27level barely improved, and his
18:30:29cultivation technique was only one level
18:30:31higher than when he was in the outer
18:30:33sect. However, this person has changed
18:30:35quite a bit. Her previous appearance was
18:30:37completely different from her current
18:30:39appearance. He used to look very tired,
18:30:41old and haggarded, and even hunched
18:30:43over. Now even the wrinkles are gone,
18:30:46and she looks exceptionally relaxed.
18:30:48Xiaoing was quite surprised. You still
18:30:50remember me? Su Chongqing nodded. We are
18:30:52outer disciples who were promoted in the
18:30:54same batch. Xiaoing glanced around, then
18:30:57asked curiously, "Isn't linen with you?"
18:31:00Su Chongqing countered, "You don't<unk>t
18:31:01know." Xiaoing shook her head and said,
18:31:03"Zhiao Xiao, several other tenant
18:31:06farmers, and I have only been away from
18:31:08Jang Air for a short time, so we don't
18:31:10know much about the situation outside."
18:31:12Su Chongqing suddenly realized and then
18:31:14explained, "When Linen was on the
18:31:16outskirts, didn't he find two people to
18:31:18help increase production?" Later, when
18:31:20he couldn't produce spirit rice, he was
18:31:22taken away by the Ministry of
18:31:24Punishments. Upon hearing this, Xiaoing
18:31:27looked incredulous. You and Lynen are
18:31:29the most talented among the four of us.
18:31:31yet he actually owes spirit rice. Su
18:31:34Chongqing shrugged and simply recounted
18:31:36the situation at the time. Xiaoing found
18:31:38it unbelievable after hearing this and
18:31:40couldn't even understand it. Of the four
18:31:42people at the time, Su Chongqing and
18:31:44Lynn and were the most promising. Ziao
18:31:46Xiao was half a candidate. But he was
18:31:48unlucky in the end and had no choice but
18:31:51to seek refuge with Jeang. Unexpectedly,
18:31:54in the end, only Su Chongqing remained
18:31:56as a stable person. Xiaoing sighed, then
18:31:59asked, "Are you here to see senior
18:32:01brother Jeang?" Such Chongqing gave an
18:32:03affirmative answer. "Yes." Xiaoing
18:32:06glanced at the tightly closed door, then
18:32:08extended an invitation. "Since senior
18:32:10brother Jeang isn't here, why don't you
18:32:12come over to my place and we can catch
18:32:14up?" "Sure," Su Chongqing said
18:32:16indifferently. "Then the two walked
18:32:18along the ridge to the right." Along the
18:32:20way, they talked about what happened
18:32:22back then. Looking back now, the area
18:32:24around Linton was actually quite nice.
18:32:26Upon reaching the core of the spirit
18:32:28field, although he obtained a second
18:32:30grade spirit field, the pressure was
18:32:32immense. Before long, Su Chanchqing
18:32:34finally arrived near the spirit field
18:32:36that Ziaing had planted. To be honest,
18:32:38the environment is quite nice. There's a
18:32:41small river across the river, making it
18:32:43very convenient to fetch water. Such
18:32:45Chanqing couldn't help but ask, "Is this
18:32:47the spirit field you acquired later?" As
18:32:50Xiaoing led the way, she said without
18:32:52turning her head, Zang Air disappeared.
18:32:54People from the Ministry of Punishment
18:32:56and the core of the spirit field came to
18:32:58investigate. After discovering our
18:33:00situation, they allowed us to change the
18:33:02location of the spirit field. Su
18:33:05Chongqing looked at the second grade
18:33:06spirit field next to him where a large
18:33:08number of spirit rice plants were
18:33:10growing. The color is slightly
18:33:11yellowish, but it's not ripe yet. He
18:33:14scanned the area with his spiritual
18:33:15sense, and all sorts of information
18:33:17emerged. Premium spirit rice. Spiritual
18:33:20energy is acceptable. Infested with
18:33:23pests. There was indeed a problem and a
18:33:25big one at that. It seems that although
18:33:27Xiaoing has awakened the wood spirit
18:33:29route, she is indeed lacking in the
18:33:31ability to cultivate spirit plants and
18:33:33she has not even discovered pests. Come
18:33:36sit down. Xiaoing brought out a chair
18:33:38from the house. Although it wasn't
18:33:39dusty, she still wiped it with a cloth.
18:33:42As soon as Su Chongqing sat down, the
18:33:44man brought him a bowl of cold tea,
18:33:46showing great enthusiasm. After the meal
18:33:48was served, Xiaoing Kai brought out a
18:33:51wooden chair and the two sat facing each
18:33:53other. Jangir has disappeared. You know
18:33:55that, right? I know. People from the
18:33:58department of penalties came to ask. I
18:34:00was prepared to run away, but
18:34:02unexpectedly things took a turn for the
18:34:04better. You're planning to run away? I'm
18:34:06working myself to the bone everyday, and
18:34:08Jeang keeps cutting back on my
18:34:10cultivation resources. It's too
18:34:12agonizing. So, it's good that Jeang Air
18:34:14is dead, gone. As the two were talking,
18:34:17another person walked over from the
18:34:19other side. Who? Ziao Xiao. Xiaoing
18:34:22stood up to greet him. Xiao, you've
18:34:23come. Xiao Xiao nodded, then looked at
18:34:26the other guest and his eyes widened. Su
18:34:28Chong, senior brother? Senior brother?
18:34:31What senior brother? Xiaoing looked
18:34:33confused. Zia Xiao opened his mouth
18:34:36about to give an explanation. Su
18:34:38Chongqing laughed and said, "Three of
18:34:40the four are here now. Only Lynn and is
18:34:42missing." Ziao Xiao was stunned for a
18:34:44moment and his eyes became complicated.
18:34:47Actually, he had just found out about it
18:34:49himself. The person in front of me has
18:34:51broken through from the early stage ofQi
18:34:53refining to the early stage of
18:34:55foundation establishment in less than 4
18:34:57years. He is no longer just a fellow
18:34:59Dowist, but must be respectfully
18:35:01addressed as senior brother. The three
18:35:04of them then chatted for a while. The
18:35:06atmosphere became a bit awkward compared
18:35:07to when Su Chongqing and Xiaoing were
18:35:10together. Ziao Xiao was very nervous and
18:35:12dared not say anything out of turn which
18:35:14affected the other two. Su Chongqing
18:35:17rested there for a while, then stood up
18:35:19and said, "I should go back now."
18:35:21Xiaoing smiled and stood up to see him
18:35:23off. "Let<unk>s talk again next time."
18:35:25Su Chongqing walked step by step to the
18:35:27edge of the field, glanced at the spirit
18:35:30rice in the spirit field, and then
18:35:31reminded him, "You'd better check it."
18:35:34Huh? Xiaoing was taken aback. However,
18:35:36Su Chongqing summoned his mode of
18:35:38transportation, the big leaf grass, and
18:35:41soared into the air, disappearing into
18:35:43the distance in the blink of an eye.
18:35:45Only then did Xiao Xiao dare to step
18:35:47forward. Su Chongqing, "And we are no
18:35:49longer on the same level as Lingo."
18:35:51Xiaoing asked, seemingly understanding,
18:35:54but not quite, "Not on the same level?"
18:35:56Xiaoza took a deep breath, his eyes
18:35:58filled with envy. I just received news
18:36:00that Su Chongqing is already a
18:36:02foundation establishment stage spirit
18:36:04farmer and he owns 2 acres of second
18:36:07grade spirit fields. Haing gasped upon
18:36:10hearing this. Xiao Xiao quickly said
18:36:13since senior brother Su reminded you
18:36:15that there is a problem with the
18:36:16spiritual plant then check it quickly.
18:36:18Yes, yes, yes. Xiaoing finally realized
18:36:21what was happening and jumped into the
18:36:23spirit field without even taking off her
18:36:25shoes. Seeing this, Ziao Xiao followed
18:36:27closely behind. After checking, the two
18:36:30were immediately shocked. Unexpectedly,
18:36:32the roots of the sacred rice were
18:36:34covered with small brown insects that
18:36:36looked like cicatas. Ziao Xiao breathed
18:36:39a sigh of relief. Luckily, we discovered
18:36:41it in time. Otherwise, it would have
18:36:43been terrible. Xiaoing excitedly ran up
18:36:45the ridge of the field, cupped her hands
18:36:47in a gesture of respect in the direction
18:36:49Su Chongqing had left, and said, "Thank
18:36:52you, senior brother Su." Chapter 132.
18:36:55Alchemist Chuio unexpectedly killing an
18:36:57acquaintance 1/5. Chapter 132. Alchemist
18:37:01Chuio unexpectedly killing acquaintances
18:37:041/5. Time flew by and it was afternoon.
18:37:07Su Chongqing went out again. Sure
18:37:09enough, the door was open this time and
18:37:11the person was home. Upon seeing Su
18:37:14Chongqing arrive, Jeang Su was overjoyed
18:37:16and said with a smile, "It just so
18:37:18happens that the alchemist I know just
18:37:20refined a new pill today, so we'll
18:37:22definitely be able to buy it first." Su
18:37:24Chongqing nodded slightly. Everything
18:37:26will be arranged by senior brother. Jang
18:37:28Su wasted no time. He summoned his mode
18:37:31of transportation, the disguised wooden
18:37:33butterfly, and waved. Hurry up and get
18:37:35on. We're going to the alchemy pavilion
18:37:37now. Su Chonqing carefully put away the
18:37:40large leaf grass, then leaped up and
18:37:42landed steadily on the butterflyy's
18:37:44back. He had thought it would be very
18:37:46soft, but it turned out to be
18:37:47exceptionally tough. Jang Su<unk>s heart
18:37:49stirred, and she issued a command. The
18:37:52wooden butterfly under her feet began to
18:37:53flap its wings, and a strong wind swept
18:37:56around, blowing weeds and scattering
18:37:58stones. Then, carrying the two people on
18:38:01its back, it soared into the sky and
18:38:03flew upwards. Standing on the back of
18:38:06the wooden butterfly, Su Chongqing
18:38:08observed it carefully and soon revealed
18:38:10an envious look in his eyes. This spirit
18:38:12beast's ability is too incredible. It
18:38:15can disguise itself as the exact same
18:38:17color as anything around it. If there is
18:38:20only sunlight, the body along with the
18:38:22person on its back will gradually become
18:38:24transparent, making it ideal for
18:38:26escaping or stalking. At this moment,
18:38:29Jang Su spoke up. The alchemy pavilion
18:38:31is located south of our spiritual
18:38:33fields. There is a particularly rare
18:38:35earth fire there, which is said to
18:38:37improve the quality of pills and reduce
18:38:39more impurities. Su Chongqing smiled and
18:38:42said, "This is my first time going."
18:38:44Jeang Su then introduced in the alchemy
18:38:46pavilion. Alchemists are divided into
18:38:49five levels. Fire spirit route
18:38:50apprentice, elementary alchemist,
18:38:52advanced alchemist, top alchemist, and
18:38:55grandmaster of alchemy. My friend here
18:38:57is called Chu Xio, and he is currently
18:38:59an elementary alchemist. Su Chonqing
18:39:02immediately flattered him to be able to
18:39:04know senior brother Jeang. This person
18:39:06must be extraordinary. Sure enough, Zang
18:39:09Su smile became even brighter upon
18:39:11hearing this. Junior brother, you are
18:39:14absolutely right. Novice alchemists can
18:39:16attempt to refine foundation
18:39:17establishment pills. Chu Xio succeeded
18:39:20once. Originally, he planned to
18:39:22introduce this novice alchemist to Sue
18:39:24Chongqing so that he could purchase
18:39:25foundation establishment pills in the
18:39:27future. Unexpectedly, this junior
18:39:29brother Sue successfully established his
18:39:31foundation without making a sound and
18:39:34didn't even need to use any pills. This
18:39:36situation is extremely rare. It might
18:39:38only happen to one in 10,000
18:39:40cultivators. However, even if we don't
18:39:43need foundation establishment pills now,
18:39:45we still need other pills. For example,
18:39:47the foundation spirit pill, which is
18:39:49taken during the foundation
18:39:51establishment stage, is indispensable
18:39:53because it can accelerate the absorption
18:39:55and refining efficiency of spiritual
18:39:57energy. The two kept talking throughout
18:39:59the journey. As time went by, the
18:40:01surrounding temperature rose higher and
18:40:03higher. You can even feel an invisible
18:40:05wave of heat surging towards you. There
18:40:08was little vegetation around and even
18:40:10the river had dried up. The ground was
18:40:12dry and peeling with shocking cracks
18:40:14everywhere. Immediately, Jeang Su said,
18:40:16"This is the Earth Fire Zone where the
18:40:18Alchemy Pavilion is located." Su
18:40:21Chongqing looked into the distance and
18:40:22discovered that there were many
18:40:24buildings of different sizes, especially
18:40:26in the deepest depression where there
18:40:28was even a three-story Dan Tower. The
18:40:31number of people, especially fire spirit
18:40:33rude apprentices, is greater than
18:40:35expected. Jang Su pointed downwards and
18:40:37said, "The medicinal herbs we grow will
18:40:39all be sent here and processed
18:40:41personally by the apprentices with fire
18:40:43spirit roots." Su Chongqing asked
18:40:46curiously, "Are all the alchemists in
18:40:47the pill tower?" Jeang Su shook his head
18:40:50and said, "The pill tower contains all
18:40:52kinds of rare pills and pill formulas.
18:40:55Only advanced alchemists are qualified
18:40:57to enter. Whether they are apprentices
18:40:59with fire elemental roots or novice
18:41:01alchemists, they all have to build their
18:41:03own alchemy rooms." Su Chongqing
18:41:05suddenly realized, "I see." Before long,
18:41:08the wooden butterfly slowly landed and
18:41:10stopped in front of a two-story house.
18:41:13Jang Su landed first, then called out
18:41:15softly, "Fellow Daist Chu." Not long
18:41:18after, the door creaked open and a man
18:41:20with panda eyes poked his head out. So,
18:41:22it's fellow Daist Jang. Such Chongqing
18:41:25stood behind and observed. This person
18:41:27is in their 30s or 40s. He is of medium
18:41:30build, neither tall nor short. Some of
18:41:33them were sllovenly with messy hair
18:41:35looking like a bird's nest. He had a
18:41:37medicinal scent that Su Chongqing was
18:41:39quite familiar with. It was actually the
18:41:41scent that every alchemist would give
18:41:42off. Jang Su pointed at Su Chongqing and
18:41:45introduced him. Fellow Daist Chu, this
18:41:48is my junior brother whom I value highly
18:41:50in the spirit field. His name is Su
18:41:52Chongqing and he is also a spirit
18:41:54farmer. Su Chongqing stepped forward,
18:41:57cupped his hands in greeting and said,
18:41:59"Master Chu." Chushio couldn't help but
18:42:01look him up and down. Her first
18:42:03impression was that he was young,
18:42:04probably in his early 20s. Other than
18:42:07that, there was nothing special about
18:42:08him. However, this address of master
18:42:11made him feel very comfortable. Jang Su
18:42:14said with a smile, Junior brother Su,
18:42:16"This fellow Daoist Chu is very skilled
18:42:18in alchemy. If you need any pills in the
18:42:20future, you can come directly to him."
18:42:22Chu show pouted and said, "You can look
18:42:24for me, but you can't disturb me while
18:42:26I'm refining pills." "Of course. Of
18:42:29course, Jang Su nodded hurriedly in
18:42:31agreement. Then Chu Xio called out,
18:42:33<unk>on stay outside, come in. Su
18:42:35Chongqing and Jang Su exchanged a
18:42:38glance, then entered the house one after
18:42:40the other. Upon entering, Su Chongqing
18:42:42glanced around, and his first impression
18:42:44was one of disorder. The entire living
18:42:47room was almost entirely filled with all
18:42:49sorts of medicinal herbs, drags, and
18:42:52defective products, which resulted in a
18:42:54very complex and even slightly pungent
18:42:56smell. Jang Su immediately asked,
18:42:58"Fellow Dais Chu, how many kinds of
18:43:00pills did you refine this time?" Chu Xio
18:43:03didn't answer, but turned and went into
18:43:05the alchemy room next door. A short
18:43:07while later, she came out with two trays
18:43:09of pills, one yellowish and the other
18:43:12greenish, and then said, "Recently, the
18:43:14demand for Luang pills and jilling pills
18:43:16has surged, and I've been refining these
18:43:18two types." Upon hearing the name Loang
18:43:21Wan, Su Chongqing stepped forward to
18:43:23investigate. To be honest, this luang
18:43:26pill is really wellmade. The colors and
18:43:28sizes are perfectly uniform with no
18:43:31deviation whatsoever. Seeing how serious
18:43:33the other party was, Chuio couldn't help
18:43:35but say proudly, "This is a premium
18:43:38grade strengthening pill." "You've never
18:43:40seen one before, have you?" "Uh" Such
18:43:42Chaning blinked. Jang Su picked up a
18:43:45greenish colored foundation spirit pill
18:43:47to examine it, then asked, "As expected
18:43:49of fellow Daist Chu, "Your alchemy
18:43:51skills are truly impressive. How many
18:43:53spirit stones does one foundation spirit
18:43:56pill cost? Chuio shrugged. I usually
18:43:59sell it for 50 low-grade spirit stones.
18:44:01Considering our many collaborations,
18:44:03I'll give you a discount of five
18:44:05low-grade spirit stones. Jeang Su<unk>s
18:44:07eyes lit up. 45 lowgrade spirit stones a
18:44:10piece. That's really cheap. Su Chongqing
18:44:13asked curiously, "How many spirit stones
18:44:15does one of these labor strengthening
18:44:17pills cost?" Chu Xio said calmly. since
18:44:20you were introduced by fellow Daist
18:44:22Jang. I'll give you five low-grade
18:44:24spirit stones per stone. Such Chongqing
18:44:26was stunned. If he remembered correctly,
18:44:28this item of the same high quality could
18:44:31be bought for three low-grade spirit
18:44:32stones in the market for rogue
18:44:34cultivators. Even the labor
18:44:35strengthening pill refined by the Lelay
18:44:37family only costs four low-grade spirit
18:44:40stones. We're all in the same immortal
18:44:42sect, and we were introduced by someone
18:44:44we know. And then he actually took
18:44:46advantage of someone he knew. Chapter
18:44:49133. Searching for someone at Donin
18:44:50Tower. Unexpectedly, it was her.
18:44:53February 5th. Chapter 133. Doning Tower
18:44:56is looking for someone, but it turns out
18:44:58to be her. February 5th. Speaking of
18:45:00which, this time I brought Junior
18:45:02Brother Su here. Jang Su hadn't finished
18:45:04speaking. Chuio interrupted. I
18:45:06understand. Your junior brother Sue
18:45:08needs a foundation establishment pill to
18:45:10break through his realm, but will have
18:45:12to wait until after the formal disciple
18:45:14competition, and he'll need to prepay
18:45:16100 mid-grade spirit stones. Their
18:45:19exploiting acquaintances and demanding
18:45:21advanced payments of spirit stones.
18:45:23Immediately, Su Chongqing<unk>s
18:45:25impression of the alchemist in front of
18:45:26him worsened considerably. After Chu Xio
18:45:29finished speaking, she looked at the two
18:45:31of them, seemingly certain that they
18:45:32would compromise. However, Jang Su shook
18:45:35his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Chu,
18:45:38you misunderstand." "My junior brother
18:45:40Su has already broken through to the
18:45:42foundation establishment stage and
18:45:44doesn't need foundation establishment
18:45:45pills at all." Upon hearing this, Chu
18:45:48Shio was stunned for a moment before
18:45:50saying incredulously, "You've already
18:45:52reached the foundation establishment
18:45:53stage." Su Chongqing smiled slightly and
18:45:56immediately released his aura, exuding
18:45:59the refreshing aura unique to Wood
18:46:01spirit roots. After confirming that the
18:46:03person in front of him was a foundation
18:46:05establishment cultivator, Chu Xio<unk>s
18:46:07expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
18:46:09"You keep calling me Junior Brother. I
18:46:11thought you were aqi refining
18:46:12cultivator." Jang Su explained, "The
18:46:15main reason I brought Junior Brother Su
18:46:17here this time, besides getting to know
18:46:19you, is to discuss cooperation."
18:46:21"Cooperation?" Chushio raised an
18:46:23eyebrow. Jeang Su nodded slightly. You
18:46:26should know that once a spirit farmer
18:46:27reaches the foundation establishment
18:46:29stage, they will gain an additional acre
18:46:31of grade two spirit field. Chu then
18:46:34understood what the other party meant.
18:46:36And couldn't help but frown, saying,
18:46:38"With you providing the medicinal herbs,
18:46:40I don't need a second partner." Su
18:46:43Chongqing tactfully replied, "I won't
18:46:45steal my seniors business." Not wanting
18:46:47to lose face. And since he was already
18:46:49there, Zang Su simply said, "Fellow
18:46:52Daist Chu, you know so many alchemists.
18:46:54Could you introduce a few to my junior
18:46:56brother? Chuio rolled her eyes in
18:46:58annoyance. You have 10 acres of
18:47:00spiritual fields, planting so many
18:47:02medicinal herbs, and you're not just
18:47:04cooperating with me, the only alchemist.
18:47:07Jang Su spread his hands and said quite
18:47:09sincerely, "Most of my partners are
18:47:11apprentices with fire spirit roots.
18:47:13Although there are some junior
18:47:14alchemists, none of them can compare to
18:47:16you." Su Chongqing saw this and was
18:47:19deeply moved. Most spirit farmers who
18:47:21have just broken through to the
18:47:22foundation establishment stage don't
18:47:24know what kind of spirit plant to plant
18:47:26in their newly added second acre of
18:47:27grade 2 spirit field. So to be on the
18:47:29safe side, they generally choose spirit
18:47:32rice. After all, it's a sure thing, no
18:47:34risk. But if you really want to get
18:47:36rich, you must plant rare spiritual
18:47:38plants. Collaborating with the
18:47:40alchemists of the alchemy pavilion is
18:47:42clearly a good choice. Not only can they
18:47:45access elixirs and medicinal herbs, but
18:47:47they can also earn a stable income. This
18:47:49can be described as killing two birds
18:47:51with one stone. Chu never expected that
18:47:54her business partner would ask her for
18:47:55help for the sake of a junior brother,
18:47:57which would leave her indebted to him.
18:47:59Considering that the other party could
18:48:01reliably provide the medicinal materials
18:48:03needed for his alchemy, and given the
18:48:05reputation of the Jeang family of
18:48:06Linton, he decided not to refuse. After
18:48:09much deliberation, Jang Su<unk>s eyes
18:48:11lit up. Thank you, fellow Daois Chu. Su
18:48:14Chongqing followed closely behind. Thank
18:48:16you, Master Chu. Chu Xio gave a heads
18:48:19up. I can introduce you to a few
18:48:21alchemists, but whether they succeed or
18:48:23not depends on their own choices. Su
18:48:25Chongqing and Jang Su expressed their
18:48:27understanding of this. Let's give it a
18:48:29try first. What if it works? Just then,
18:48:32Chuio finished refining the pills and
18:48:34needed to rest for a few days.
18:48:36Therefore, he went to the next room to
18:48:37take a shower, changed into a new light
18:48:40red outfit, and then took Jeang Su and
18:48:42Su Chongqing outside. The three of them
18:48:44walked step by step into the depths of
18:48:46the fairly wide street. On both sides,
18:48:49there are almost entirely buildings that
18:48:50combine residential buildings with
18:48:52alchemy workshops. However, most of the
18:48:55people living here are apprentices with
18:48:57fire elemental roots. True alchemists
18:48:59are extremely rare. After all, this
18:49:01profession requires not only talent, but
18:49:04also time and perseverance. Here, the
18:49:06older the alchemist, the more sought
18:49:08after they are. Before long, a
18:49:10three-story building appeared in front
18:49:12of the three of them. Its name is
18:49:13Denmloo. There were many apprentices
18:49:16with fire elemental roots and novice
18:49:18alchemists coming and going, and even
18:49:19the sound of conversations could be
18:49:21heard coming from inside, making it
18:49:23quite lively. Chu Shio pointed to the
18:49:25building and introduced it. This is
18:49:27where we meet privately to exchange our
18:49:29alchemy experiences. Jang Su already
18:49:32knew this and was not surprised. Su
18:49:34Chongqing, however, began to observe
18:49:36carefully. With so many fire elemental
18:49:39roots gathered together, the entire
18:49:41building did not emit a scorching aura.
18:49:44Instead, it was filled with a cool
18:49:46breeze. It makes people feel very
18:49:48comfortable. Immediately afterwards, the
18:49:50three of them quickly entered. The
18:49:52three-story donin tower has a large
18:49:54first floor furnished with numerous
18:49:56tables, chairs, and benches, much like
18:49:58the ins and restaurants in the scattered
18:50:00cultivator market. You can see fire
18:50:02spirit rude apprentices and novice
18:50:04alchemists chatting amicably while
18:50:06drinking wine and eating snacks. The
18:50:08atmosphere is indeed very good. Has
18:50:10fellow daist Chu finished refining the
18:50:12pills? "How was the harvest this time?
18:50:15Could you introduce a few guests?
18:50:17Clearly, Chu Xio is quite famous here.
18:50:19As soon as you enter, someone always
18:50:21greets you," Jang Su explained. Fellow
18:50:23Daoist Chu once refined a foundation
18:50:26establishment pill. Even though it was
18:50:28only one pill and of poor quality, it
18:50:30still gained him considerable fame.
18:50:32After listening, Su Chongqing pondered
18:50:34to himself. It seems that the ability to
18:50:36refine foundation establishment pills
18:50:39has become a watershed moment for this
18:50:41profession. Chushio was able to refine
18:50:43it. Even if he only succeeded once and
18:50:46only produced one piece and the quality
18:50:48was not high, but compared to his peers
18:50:50who mostly failed, he was still very
18:50:52impressive. That's why their status and
18:50:54position are higher than others.
18:50:56Outside, cultivators mostly value
18:50:58strength above all else. But here,
18:51:00especially in an environment full of
18:51:02apprentices and alchemists. Whoever has
18:51:04a higher success rate in refining pills
18:51:06and produces better quality ones is the
18:51:09most awesome. However, Chuio<unk>s
18:51:11reaction to the enthusiasm of those
18:51:13around her was quite cold. Without even
18:51:15glancing at them, as if he hadn't heard
18:51:17a thing, he led Su Chongqing and Jang Su
18:51:20up the wooden steps and quickly ascended
18:51:22to the second floor of Doning Tower.
18:51:24Compared to the first floor, there are
18:51:26fewer people here and the environment is
18:51:28better. Most of the seats were empty
18:51:30with people only near the windows and
18:51:32railings. To avoid arousing suspicion
18:51:34from the two people behind her, Chu
18:51:36said, "Most of the alchemists I know are
18:51:39drinking tea on the second floor." Jang
18:51:41Su immediately responded, "I understand.
18:51:44I understand." Su Chongqing didn't say
18:51:46anything. He just followed silently.
18:51:49Soon, they arrived at a window on the
18:51:50second floor where three people were
18:51:52sitting. Two men and one woman, all of
18:51:55whom are alchemists. Old Chong. Chu Xio
18:51:58greeted him first. The oldest of the
18:52:00three smiled and said, "Little Chu has
18:52:02finished refining the pills." Chu Xio
18:52:05nodded, then pointed to the two people
18:52:06behind her and introduced them. These
18:52:09two are both spirit farmers. The one on
18:52:11the left is called Jang Su, and the one
18:52:13on the right is called Su Chongqing. Su
18:52:16Chonqing, the only female alchemist who
18:52:18had been looking at the window, turned
18:52:20her head in surprise. After seeing the
18:52:22other person's face clearly, Su
18:52:24Chongqing exclaimed in astonishment.
18:52:26Baihu, isn't this Binger's older sister?
18:52:29Goodness, after all this time, it turns
18:52:31out to be someone I know. Chu Xio was
18:52:33quite surprised. You two know each
18:52:35other. Baiju said with a playful
18:52:37expression, I've more than just known
18:52:39him. I've always been lusting after his
18:52:41body. Chapter 134, Cooperation Fails,
18:52:45Advanced Female Alchemist. Three-fifths.
18:52:47Chapter 134, Cooperation Failed.
18:52:50advanced female alchemist, three-fifths,
18:52:52upon hearing Bhuer<unk>'s words. The
18:52:54reactions of the group varied. Chu
18:52:56Xio<unk>s gaze shifted back and forth
18:52:58between the two of them, a mixture of
18:53:00surprise and uncertainty in her eyes.
18:53:03Jang Su was astonished, never expecting
18:53:05that the person she had met yesterday
18:53:07was actually an alchemist. Chongs
18:53:09narrowed his eyes, appearing the most
18:53:11composed, but no one knew what he was
18:53:13thinking. The other male alchemist
18:53:15directly opposite him glared, his eyes
18:53:17sharpening. Bhuer realized that her
18:53:20words were inappropriate, so she waved
18:53:22her hand and said, "Just kidding. We're
18:53:24friends." Chong Xin nodded slightly.
18:53:27"Since you are Zuer<unk>'s friend, then
18:53:29sit down and have some tea together."
18:53:31Jang Su snapped out of her gaze and
18:53:33chimed in. "Yes, yes, yes, let's<unk>
18:53:35have some tea." While moving the chairs,
18:53:38Chu Xio introduced, "This is Chong Xai.
18:53:40He is the most senior alchemist among
18:53:42us. He can refine Earth rank,
18:53:44breakthrough pill, and golden pill.
18:53:46Master Chong, Su Chongqing, and Jeang Su
18:53:49bowed respectfully. Chongs eye put down
18:53:52his teacup, his eyes smiling, and said,
18:53:54"I dare not call myself a master. Just
18:53:56call me Lao Chong." Chu Xio then pointed
18:53:59to another male alchemist opposite her
18:54:01and introduced him. Jeang is also a
18:54:04junior alchemist, but his spiritual root
18:54:06is a mutated fire spiritual route. Su
18:54:08Chongqing and Jeang Su exchanged a
18:54:10glance, then cuped their hands in
18:54:12greeting, "Master Jeang." Jangqin
18:54:15snorted coldly. It was unclear whether
18:54:18he was responding or simply too lazy to
18:54:20respond. Chu looked at Baiju and opened
18:54:23her mouth. Since you know each other,
18:54:25there<unk>'s no need for introductions.
18:54:27Baiju felt it was necessary. Although Su
18:54:29Chongqing knew she was an alchemist, he
18:54:31was not clear about her specific
18:54:33strength. So, he took the initiative to
18:54:35say, "I am also a beginner alchemist."
18:54:37At this point, the names of the four
18:54:39individuals and their alchemy skills
18:54:41were clear. Old Chong, also known as
18:54:43Chong Zai, is the oldest and a senior
18:54:46alchemist. Jeangqin, whose age is
18:54:48unknown, is a novice alchemist, but
18:54:51possesses a mutated fire spirit route.
18:54:53Baijuer needs no further introduction.
18:54:56Chu already understood. Jang Su picked
18:54:58up the teapot next to him and poured a
18:55:00cup for each of the alchemists in turn.
18:55:02Then he said, "To be honest, Junior
18:55:04Brother Su and I have come to find
18:55:06business partners. Lingong has always
18:55:09been there to provide you with medicinal
18:55:10herbs. Some people nodded in agreement,
18:55:13while others remained indifferent. Chin
18:55:15spoke up, his tone quite disdainful.
18:55:18That's true, but we don't cooperate with
18:55:20just any spirit farmer, especially those
18:55:22in theQi refining stage. Get as far away
18:55:25from them as possible. On the surface,
18:55:27he seemed to be stating conditions. But
18:55:29his eyes were fixed on Su Chongqing, and
18:55:31his words implied contempt for theQi
18:55:33refining stage spiritual farmer. Jang Su
18:55:36knew the rules. If Su Chongqing hadn't
18:55:39broken through to the foundation
18:55:40establishment stage, he would never have
18:55:42brought him along. Therefore, he nodded
18:55:44and said, "Don't worry, everyone. Junior
18:55:47brother Su and I are both foundation
18:55:49establishment stage spirit farmers."
18:55:51Upon hearing that Su Chongqing was at
18:55:53the foundation establishment stage,
18:55:55Jeang was stunned for a moment, then
18:55:57looked away with displeasure. If the
18:55:59other party is only at theQi refining
18:56:01stage, then they are at the very bottom
18:56:03of the hierarchy of contempt. Although
18:56:06most people don't want to offend Lingo,
18:56:08otherwise they won't have anything to
18:56:09eat. Alchemists have a higher priority
18:56:11than spirit farmers, so they won't have
18:56:13trouble finding partners. Chong Xai was
18:56:16bound to side with his own people. So he
18:56:18said in a deep voice, "We already have
18:56:20cooperative spirit farmers." Adding one
18:56:22more would not only bring additional
18:56:24risks, but also require an extra
18:56:26investment. The meaning of these words
18:56:28is quite clear, it's a polite refusal.
18:56:31To put it bluntly, Chuio doesn't have
18:56:33that much influence. Chong Xai couldn't
18:56:36just find any Lingong to cooperate with.
18:56:38Of the four people, Chu Xio is not good.
18:56:41Jeang is hostile and Chong Xai is
18:56:43unwilling to cooperate. Therefore, Su
18:56:46Chongqing and Jeang Su had no choice but
18:56:48to turn their attention to their
18:56:49acquaintance, Baiju. To be honest, Su
18:56:52Chongqing and Baihuer missed each other.
18:56:54When they came to Lingian in person to
18:56:56express their willingness to cooperate,
18:56:58they were rejected on the spot.
18:57:00Unexpectedly, the tables have turned. In
18:57:03truth, Such Chonqing didn't care at all
18:57:05whether or not he could cooperate with
18:57:07alchemists. After all, he possessed
18:57:09several rare and mutated spiritual
18:57:11plants. In addition, selling wine and
18:57:14pills in the market by independent
18:57:15cultivators is actually quite
18:57:17profitable. But this time, it was Jeang
18:57:19Su who acted as matchmaker. And for
18:57:21that, she owed Chu a favor. If she left
18:57:23like this, it would be like offending
18:57:25her. Jeang Su, unfortunately, was
18:57:28someone who valued his reputation above
18:57:30all else. If they do that, their newly
18:57:32restored relationship will definitely be
18:57:34shattered. Even if they don't fall out,
18:57:36resentment will still linger. Baijuer
18:57:39said helplessly. I'm sorry. I already
18:57:41have a partner, Ling Nome. He Zongqin
18:57:44laughed gleefully. Seeing this, Chu Xio
18:57:47was powerless to do anything. Although
18:57:49he knew many alchemists, he could only
18:57:50name a few of them. With no partners
18:57:52available, Zang Su<unk>s expression
18:57:54turned somewhat grim. Su Chongqing,
18:57:57observing the situation, quickly said,
18:57:59"Whether we cooperate or not is not
18:58:01important. Getting to know you
18:58:03alchemists is the greatest gain of this
18:58:04trip." Although he knew it was just
18:58:06polite talk, it was better than giving
18:58:08him a cold shoulder. Chong's eye
18:58:10revealed an appreciative look in his
18:58:12eyes. Young friend, you are already a
18:58:14foundation establishment stage spiritual
18:58:16farmer at such a young age. Your future
18:58:19is limitless. However, Baiju then
18:58:22changed the subject. Although we cannot
18:58:24cooperate, I can introduce you to a
18:58:26highle alchemist. Oh, Su Chaning asked
18:58:29in surprise. Baiju raised her slender
18:58:32right hand and pointed in the direction
18:58:34of the pill tower, saying, "I have a
18:58:36senior sister who has just returned from
18:58:37her training outside and happens to be
18:58:39looking for a partner." Jeang asked in
18:58:42astonishment, "Senior sisterqai?" Chong
18:58:45Xai was surprised. "You Kai- Ching?" Chu
18:58:47Xio exclaimed, "She's a genius female
18:58:50alchemist just like Huan." Hold on. Su
18:58:53Chongqing really does know her. My own
18:58:55senior brother Lee's childhood
18:58:56sweetheart is now with R Yin of the R
18:58:59family. This was the first time I had
18:59:01ever heard of this female alchemist
18:59:02named Yuk Kaiing. The key point is that
18:59:05an alchemist actually needs to go out
18:59:06for training, which sounds like
18:59:08something extraordinary. Baijuer stood
18:59:10up. Come on, I'll take you to find
18:59:12senior sister Kaiing. Jeang stepped
18:59:15forward to stop him. Why are you
18:59:16introducing this person to senior sister
18:59:18Kaiing? Bhuer raised an eyebrow. because
18:59:21I want to. Uh Jongqin was speechless for
18:59:24a moment. Baihuer ignored the man and
18:59:27went to Su Chongqing<unk>s side saying,
18:59:29"Let's go." Then senior brother, Su
18:59:32Chongqing looked at Jang Su beside him
18:59:34with a questioning look in his eyes.
18:59:36Jang Su patted him on the shoulder and
18:59:38nodded, saying, "Go ahead." Upon hearing
18:59:41this, Su Chongqing stood up and walked
18:59:43downstairs with Baiju. Those who stayed
18:59:45didn't chat much and soon dispersed. On
18:59:48the other side, Su Chongqing followed
18:59:50closely beside Baiju. The two were
18:59:52heading straight for the three- tiered
18:59:53pill tower in the pit. The closer you
18:59:55are, the higher the temperature you
18:59:57feel. The heatwave was intense and
18:59:59relentless. Baiju teased, "If you had
19:00:02cooperated with me back then, you
19:00:04wouldn't have to put up with Lao Chong
19:00:05and Jongqin attitudes now." Such
19:00:08Chanqing appeared very calm and said
19:00:10lightly, "Times have changed and no one
19:00:12can predict what will happen in the
19:00:14future." Baiju seemed lost in thought.
19:00:17then suddenly asked after a few seconds,
19:00:19"What do you think of my sister?"
19:00:20Chapter 135, collaborating with Yukai to
19:00:23plant moonrass. April 5th. Chapter 135,
19:00:27Cooperation with Yuka Ching, planting
19:00:29bright moon grass. April 5th. Uh faced
19:00:32with Baiju sudden question, Su Chonqing
19:00:35didn't know how to answer. The two of
19:00:37them stared at each other wideeyed.
19:00:38Bhuer raised an eyebrow slightly
19:00:41impatiently. What do you mean by not
19:00:43answering? Su Chonqing chuckled dryly.
19:00:45You asked too suddenly. Bhuer hummed a
19:00:48few times. So what exactly is my sister
19:00:50to you? After careful consideration, Su
19:00:53Chongqing replied, "Your sister is very
19:00:55cute and she has good talent and
19:00:57comprehension. That's it." Baiju thought
19:01:00it would be a long and rambling talk,
19:01:02but she didn't expect it to be so brief.
19:01:04Curiosity flickered in Su
19:01:05Chongqing<unk>s eyes. Why are you
19:01:07suddenly asking this? Bhuer said
19:01:10helplessly. Ever since she ate your
19:01:12cooking, she's been clamoring to see you
19:01:14everyday. Su Chongqing smiled and said,
19:01:17"Kids only have a short attention span.
19:01:19They'll quiet down in a few days."
19:01:21Baiher pouted, "You're not young
19:01:23anymore. You'll be 18 next year." Su
19:01:26Chongqing hesitated, then said, "But she
19:01:28looks." Baiju explained, "I take after
19:01:31my father and she takes after her
19:01:33mother." Su Chongqing suddenly realized,
19:01:36"No wonder they look completely
19:01:37different even though they are sisters,
19:01:39a more mature one. One is smaller. I
19:01:42initially thought it was due to the age
19:01:43gap, but it turns out it was actually.
19:01:45Along the way, the two chatted idly
19:01:47until they finally arrived at the
19:01:49entrance to the Dan Tower. There aren't
19:01:51many people here. There are almost no
19:01:53apprentices with fire spirit roots, and
19:01:55most of them are alchemists. You need to
19:01:57register before you can get in. If Su
19:01:59Chongqing comes alone, he probably won't
19:02:01be allowed to enter. Fortunately, Bhuer,
19:02:04a fellow alchemist, was by his side.
19:02:06Even though she was only a beginner, she
19:02:08could vouch for him. Therefore, after
19:02:10reporting their information, the two
19:02:12successfully entered the first floor of
19:02:14the Dan Tower. Upon entering, Su
19:02:16Chonqing glanced around and noticed that
19:02:18the place was exceptionally spacious.
19:02:21The entire first floor is like a small
19:02:22square with display pills everywhere.
19:02:25They have pills ranging from lowrade and
19:02:27high-grade all the way up to earth grade
19:02:29and even heaven grade fragments, one of
19:02:31each type with a note indicating who
19:02:33crafted it and when. Such Chongqing
19:02:36discovered that even pills like luwang
19:02:38pill and jilling pill weren't qualified
19:02:40to be displayed, which shows just how
19:02:42terrifying the Dan Tower's resources
19:02:43are. Baiju explained, "On the surface,
19:02:46the pill tower only has three layers,
19:02:49but in reality, there are three layers
19:02:51above ground and 18 more layers
19:02:53underground to better utilize the earth
19:02:55fire." Su Chongqing nodded slightly,
19:02:57like an inverted tower. As Baihuer led
19:03:00the way, she continued, "My senior
19:03:02sister, Yuka Ching, has an exceptional
19:03:05talent for alchemy. She became a highle
19:03:07alchemist at a young age and can easily
19:03:09produce foundation establishment pills
19:03:11and profound heart pills. Crucially, her
19:03:14talent in cultivation is also quite
19:03:16strong. In recent years, in order to
19:03:18break through to the golden course
19:03:19stage, I have been training outside." Su
19:03:22Chongqing was surprised. It seems your
19:03:24senior sister is very capable. He's a
19:03:27highle alchemist and he's about to break
19:03:29through to the golden course stage. This
19:03:31person's talent is absolutely
19:03:33extraordinary. She might be even
19:03:35stronger than Ho Wan who is currently
19:03:37ranked number one in the alchemy
19:03:39pavilion. The two descended the
19:03:40spiraling steps feeling the temperature
19:03:43rise higher and higher. If Su Chonqing
19:03:45hadn't awakened his fire spirit route,
19:03:47he definitely wouldn't have been able to
19:03:49withstand the impact of this heat. Baiju
19:03:52watched in astonishment. When did the
19:03:53wood spirit root become able to
19:03:55withstand such intense heat? Although
19:03:57she had doubts, she didn't ask them.
19:03:59After all, she didn't have a wood spirit
19:04:02route and didn't know much about this
19:04:03aspect. Moreover, everyone's situation
19:04:06is different, so generalizations cannot
19:04:08be made. The two stopped on the ninth
19:04:10underground floor where a very long
19:04:12passage appeared in front of them. Both
19:04:14sides were tightly closed stone doors
19:04:16and not a sound could be heard. Baiju
19:04:18pointed to the stone doors on both sides
19:04:20and said, "These are all earth fire
19:04:22alchemy rooms that only advanced
19:04:24alchemists can possess. They not only
19:04:26have controllable earth fire, but also
19:04:28advanced alchemy furnaces, which can
19:04:31increase the yield of good pills by
19:04:3220%." Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
19:04:35speculated, "Wouldn't the yield rate be
19:04:37higher as you go down the product line?"
19:04:39Bhuer gave an affirmative answer. Yes,
19:04:42that's right. Therefore, every novice
19:04:44alchemist longs to own a fire alchemy
19:04:47room. Unfortunately, only advanced
19:04:49alchemists are qualified to reside in
19:04:51the pill tower. Soon, the two arrived at
19:04:53a heavy stone door. The words jeti above
19:04:57represent the seventh alchemy room on
19:04:59the ninth floor. Because it was tightly
19:05:01closed and there was no sound at all,
19:05:03neither of them knew what was happening
19:05:04inside. Baiju took out a communication
19:05:07talisman from her pink storage bag and
19:05:09infused it with her fire elemental
19:05:11power. Who senior sister? I am by jouer.
19:05:14What is it? I have found a lingo for
19:05:16you. Then there was no further movement
19:05:19from the other side. Such Chanqing
19:05:21thought the other party didn't want to
19:05:22meet. But fortunately, not long after,
19:05:25the tightly closed stone door trembled
19:05:27violently, then made a rumbling sound
19:05:29and slowly opened from the inside.
19:05:31Before the person was even seen, a plume
19:05:34of grayish white hot mist surged out.
19:05:36Then came the sound of footsteps. Tap
19:05:38tap tap. Then she revealed a beautiful
19:05:41face. Her eyebrows were like distant
19:05:43mountains covered in snow, and her eyes
19:05:45were like a cold pool reflecting the
19:05:47moon. Her skin was pale, almost
19:05:50transparent, and her lips were as pale
19:05:52as newly blossomed cherry blossoms. He
19:05:55wore a moon white robe with wide sleeves
19:05:57and a jade medicine pouch hanging at his
19:05:59waist. A crystal hair pin was inserted
19:06:01in her hair, emanating a chilling aura.
19:06:04This is none other than the renowned
19:06:05highle alchemist, Yukai. Su Chongqing
19:06:08was stunned for a moment, but
19:06:10fortunately he reacted quickly and
19:06:12looked down. Every time Baihu saw this
19:06:14person, she would look at them with envy
19:06:16and then bow and say, "Senior sister, I
19:06:19hope I didn't disturb your alchemy."
19:06:21Yukaing swept her cold gaze over the two
19:06:23of them, then said indifferently. The
19:06:26Shiing Cauldron is very stable and does
19:06:28not require my control for the time
19:06:30being. Baijuer breathed a sigh of
19:06:32relief. Then pointed to Su Chongqing
19:06:34next to her and introduced, "This is my
19:06:36friend from the spirit field. His name
19:06:38is Su Chongqing. Senior sister, you Su
19:06:41Chongqing bowed respectfully." In
19:06:44response, Yukaiing simply gave a
19:06:46heruntory, which was her way of greeting
19:06:48him. Bhuer continued, "Senior sister,
19:06:51haven't you been looking for a spiritual
19:06:53farmer to cooperate with? My friend
19:06:55should meet the requirements." Yukaiing
19:06:57asked expressionlessly, "What realm?" Su
19:07:00Chongqing replied, "Early stage of
19:07:02foundation building." Yukai continued to
19:07:04inquire. What quality are the cultivated
19:07:07spiritual plants? Su Chongqing smiled
19:07:09slightly and said confidently,
19:07:11"Top-notch." Upon hearing this,
19:07:13Utai<unk>s previously icy expression
19:07:16finally softened, and for the first
19:07:17time, a look of interest appeared in her
19:07:20eyes. A foundation establishment stage
19:07:22spiritual farmer can actually cultivate
19:07:24top-grade spiritual plants. No wonder
19:07:27junior sisterhir personally introduced
19:07:29them. Baihuer leaned forward and hugged
19:07:31the others arm in a cocketish manner.
19:07:33Then senior sister, could you take me
19:07:35with you next time you refine pills? Su
19:07:38Chanqing couldn't help but chuckle when
19:07:40he saw this coetish demeanor for the
19:07:42first time. Yukaiing did not answer
19:07:44by<unk>s question, but looked at the
19:07:46foundation establishment stage spiritual
19:07:48farmer in front of her and said, "Since
19:07:50you can cultivate top grade spiritual
19:07:52plants, I am willing to give you a
19:07:53chance." Su Chongqing<unk>ing eyes lit
19:07:56up. Thank you, senior sister. Yukaiing
19:07:58took out a handful of tiny pale white
19:08:01seeds from her jade medicine pouch. If
19:08:03you bring 1,000 top grade moon grass
19:08:05plants a month from now, we can have a
19:08:07long-term partnership. On a side note,
19:08:09what do you all think of this person?
19:08:11Chapter 136, leading Sisterhu to refine
19:08:14the small gourd. 5-fifths. Chapter 136,
19:08:17Leading Sister Zu to refine the small
19:08:19gourd, 5-fifths. Su Chonqing left the
19:08:22pill tower with the seeds of the bright
19:08:24moon grass. Baiju stayed behind,
19:08:27seemingly to learn alchemy skills from
19:08:28Yukai. Originally, Su Chonqing also
19:08:31wanted to see just how skilled this
19:08:33advanced alchemist was. Unexpectedly,
19:08:36they refused outright. Ultimately, the
19:08:38two had only known each other for a
19:08:40short time and weren't yet qualified.
19:08:42Moonongrass. I remember it's a rare
19:08:44spiritual plant that only grows at
19:08:46night. The stronger the moonlight, the
19:08:48faster it grows and the higher its
19:08:50quality. Such Chanqing had memorized the
19:08:52entire contents of the spirit field
19:08:54chronicle, so he hardly needed to look
19:08:56up any more information. Knowing how to
19:08:58cultivate it, plus max level evergreen
19:09:00technique, maxle Azure lotus creation
19:09:03skill, and Azure Lotus domain.
19:09:05Therefore, it doesn't take a month. It
19:09:07can be done in at most 20 days. This
19:09:09could be a significant challenge for
19:09:11other Jins Singh farmers. But for Su
19:09:13Chongqing, it was no challenge at all.
19:09:15Not long after, he returned to Chu
19:09:17Xio<unk>s door and called out, "Master
19:09:19Chu." Soon, the door opened and Chu Xio
19:09:22poked her head out, "It's you." Su
19:09:24Chongqing immediately asked, "Is Senior
19:09:27Brother Jang here?" Chu Xio shook her
19:09:29head and said, "He's no longer here. It
19:09:32seems he's gone back." Upon hearing
19:09:34this, Su Chongqing turned to leave,
19:09:36saying, "All right, sorry to bother you,
19:09:39etc." At this moment, Chu Xio called
19:09:41out, then asked curiously, "Have you
19:09:43seen Senior Sister U?" Su Chongqing
19:09:46nodded slightly. "Yes, I've already met
19:09:48Senior Sister U." Shu Xio eagerly
19:09:50pressed on. "So, have we cooperated?" Su
19:09:54Chongqing grinned. "Senior sister Yu has
19:09:56given me a test. If I pass, we can
19:09:58cooperate long-term." Upon hearing this,
19:10:01Chuio was greatly surprised. Senior
19:10:03Sister U is a highle alchemist. How
19:10:06could you, a spirit farmer who has just
19:10:08broken through to the foundation
19:10:09establishment stage? Possibly. In fact,
19:10:12no one would believe this news. If even
19:10:14low-level alchemists don't want to
19:10:16cooperate, how could a more powerful
19:10:18high-level alchemist possibly agree?
19:10:20Such Chanqing didn't offer any further
19:10:22explanation. I'm busy, so I won't
19:10:25disturb Master Chu any longer. Then he
19:10:27summoned his mode of transportation, the
19:10:29big leaf grass. The four enormous leaves
19:10:32began to spin rapidly, lifting the
19:10:34person off the ground and quickly
19:10:36disappearing into the distance. Chushio
19:10:38was surprised and doubtful upon seeing
19:10:40this and murmured, "Even senior sister
19:10:43Yu is willing to give us a chance to
19:10:44cooperate. Could it be that we misjudged
19:10:46her?" On his way home, Su Chongqing
19:10:49happened to pass by Zui Peak. At that
19:10:51moment, a rumbling sound came from my
19:10:54ears. He looked up and saw a burning
19:10:56fireball falling from above. Good
19:10:58heavens, which blacksmith is littering
19:11:00again? Suddenly, Su Chongqing had an
19:11:02idea. I have a mutated emerald gourd in
19:11:05my hand. Should I refine it into a
19:11:07storage item? The one we're using now is
19:11:09the small storage bag we were given when
19:11:11we first became full-time employees.
19:11:13Although there is more than one, as the
19:11:15amount of things stored increases, the
19:11:17space is no longer enough. Since I have
19:11:20some free time now, I might as well go
19:11:21there on my way. Who should we look for?
19:11:23Of course, it's the blacksmith.
19:11:26Admittedly, this person gives off a very
19:11:28creepy vibe. However, there is not a
19:11:31single flaw in the forging and refining
19:11:33techniques. After thinking it over, Su
19:11:35Chonqing took out the other party's
19:11:37communication talisman. Who is it? Su
19:11:39Chonqing. I asked you to refine the big
19:11:42leaf grass before. Oh, it's you,
19:11:44brother. How's the big leaf grass going?
19:11:46It's great. I'm very satisfied. Your
19:11:49skills are truly amazing. So, what
19:11:51brings you here, sister? I'd like to ask
19:11:53if you craft storage items. What kind of
19:11:55storage item do you want to craft,
19:11:56brother? I have a small bright green
19:11:58gourd. This thing, I can make it. You
19:12:01come and do it. Su Chongqing cut off the
19:12:04communication and then controlled the
19:12:05large leaf grass to rise upwards. Not
19:12:08long after, I saw a casting peak square
19:12:10again with nine arenas. Although it was
19:12:13almost evening, the flow of people here
19:12:15was still very large. Some fought
19:12:17one-on-one in the ring. Some set up
19:12:19stalls under the ring. Everywhere you
19:12:21look, there are formal disciples who
19:12:22have awakened different spiritual roots.
19:12:25Su Chongqing did not delay and walked
19:12:27directly toward the huge palace in front
19:12:29of him. Just as he reached the door, he
19:12:31was stopped by a shirtless male
19:12:33apprentice with a golden spiritual
19:12:34route. Fellow Dowist, do you have an
19:12:37appointment? Such Chanqing replied, I
19:12:39just made an appointment with Zhu Tong,
19:12:41an expert level blacksmith. After he
19:12:43finished speaking, his expression turned
19:12:45strange. Something about this statement
19:12:47feels off. Something's off. Gene Ling
19:12:50Jen suddenly realized, "So, you made an
19:12:52appointment with Sisterhu. Cough, cough,
19:12:54cough." Su Chongqing choked on his own
19:12:57saliva. Gene Ling Jen stepped aside with
19:12:59a half smile. All right, I won't delay
19:13:02your business any longer. Su Chonqing
19:13:04covered his face and walked towards
19:13:06forge number 17. Since it was my second
19:13:08time here, I knew the place well. The
19:13:10door was closed. A clanging sound came
19:13:12from inside. Snap, snap, snap. Such
19:13:15Chongqing raised his right hand and
19:13:17pounded on the door frame a few times
19:13:19with a little force. The room fell
19:13:21silent immediately, followed by the
19:13:23sound of footsteps approaching from
19:13:24afar. If Su Chongqing hadn't been here
19:13:27once, he would have thought that what
19:13:29came through the door wasn't a person,
19:13:30but some terrifying beast. The door
19:13:33creaked open, revealing a familiar
19:13:35pectoral muscle. Zhuang looked down and
19:13:37greeted him with a smile. Hey, bro. Su
19:13:39Chonqing nodded awkwardly. Sister, I'm
19:13:42here. Zhu Tong waved his hand, then come
19:13:45in and let's<unk> talk. Such Chongqing
19:13:48hesitated instinctively for a moment,
19:13:49but quickly stepped inside. It's
19:13:52probably because it was just being
19:13:53forged. The internal temperature is a
19:13:55bit high. The room was stuffy and hot.
19:13:57Zhu Tong pointed to the chair next to
19:13:59him and said, "Brother, please sit
19:14:02wherever you like. Make yourself at
19:14:04home." Su Chongqing looked left and
19:14:06right, and seeing that it was full of
19:14:08miscellaneous items, he couldn't sit
19:14:10down. He chuckled dryly and said, "I'll
19:14:12just stand." Juang didn't mind. He
19:14:15picked up a round wine vessel next to
19:14:16him, filled it with strong liquor, took
19:14:19a big gulp, burped, and asked, "Hicup,
19:14:22brother, are you going to refine the
19:14:23Azure?" Such Chanqing took the item out.
19:14:26Yes. Zhuang took it and examined it
19:14:29carefully. It looks to be of decent
19:14:31quality. If I were to refine it, it
19:14:33would take at least 7 days, and the
19:14:35reward would be 80 mid-grade spirit
19:14:37stones. Su Chongqing nodded slightly. No
19:14:40problem. The current market price is
19:14:42generally between 80 and 100 mid-grade
19:14:45spirit stones. Once this thing is
19:14:47successfully refined, it can be sold for
19:14:49300 mid-grade spirit stones. He
19:14:51immediately took out 80 mid-grade spirit
19:14:54stones and handed them to the other
19:14:55party. Zhu Tong, seeing the money,
19:14:58grinned and said, "Since you've taken
19:15:00such good care of me, I'll get you an
19:15:02extra spirit rune when you're refining
19:15:04it." Su Chon<unk>s eyes lit up. That's
19:15:07great. As we all know, the more
19:15:09spiritual patterns a crafted magical
19:15:11artifact has, the more spiritual power
19:15:13it can withstand, and therefore the
19:15:15stronger its power, endurance, and
19:15:17defensive capabilities. Zhu Tong slapped
19:15:19Su Chongqing on the shoulder, making him
19:15:22shrink back by at least 20 cm, then said
19:15:24loudly, "Brother, you can rest assured."
19:15:27Chapter 137. After slash and burn
19:15:30agriculture, the competition is too
19:15:32fierce. 1/3. Chapter 137. And from
19:15:35slashing cook agriculture to fire
19:15:37cultivation, the competition is too
19:15:39fierce. 1/3 harvested 1166 Supreme
19:15:43Spirit rice plants lifespan plus 7,000
19:15:46days. Harvested 453 premium watermelons
19:15:51with a lifespan increased by 2265 days.
19:15:54Harvesting 820 premium cabbages with a
19:15:58lifespan increased by 4100 days. Current
19:16:01remaining lifespan 706 years. currently
19:16:04available 8,000 gene of premium lingi
19:16:07rice. This harvest increased lifespan by
19:16:1013,365
19:16:12days which is approximately 36 years.
19:16:15Such Chongqing<unk>s current lifespan
19:16:16has surpassed the 500 years of the
19:16:18golden course stage. Who would have
19:16:20thought that he was just a foundation
19:16:21establishment stage cultivator? Even if
19:16:24they never harvest lifespan again, they
19:16:26can still live for more than 700 years.
19:16:28As for rare spiritual plants, excluding
19:16:31the mutated green gourds that have
19:16:32already been harvested, the other two
19:16:34types were not processed because they
19:16:36were not yet mature. Next, Su Chonqing
19:16:39divided the straw in half. Half of the
19:16:41first move of second grade spiritual
19:16:42land should be reserved. The remaining
19:16:45half was placed in the newly added
19:16:47second acre of second grade spirit
19:16:48field. Once everything was settled, he
19:16:50stood on the edge of the field and
19:16:52activated the blazing fire cooking oil
19:16:54technique, activating the fire elemental
19:16:57power in his Danteon. His hands
19:16:59instantly turned bright red and then
19:17:01with a whoosh, two burning flames
19:17:03emerged. With a flick of his wrist, red
19:17:06flames flew out and landed on two piles
19:17:08of straw. The flames spread rapidly,
19:17:10followed by a sizzling sound. This is
19:17:13the traditional way of farming called
19:17:14slash and burn agriculture. Its function
19:17:17is to quickly clear the spirit field.
19:17:19Moreover, ashes contain various
19:17:21nutrients. It has a similar effect to
19:17:24spirit beast excrement, increasing the
19:17:26fertility of black soil. The burning
19:17:28flames were reflected in Su
19:17:30Choning<unk>s eyes, and he couldn't help
19:17:32but sigh. Everything has become much
19:17:34more convenient since I acquired the
19:17:36fire spirit root and so on. Once you
19:17:38awaken your earth spirit root, you can
19:17:40loosen the soil yourself. Awakening the
19:17:43water elemental root allows one to
19:17:45generate rain on their own. Once you
19:17:47awaken your golden spiritual root, you
19:17:49can eliminate insects on your own.
19:17:51Possessing five spiritual roots, it is
19:17:53completely self-sufficient. As time
19:17:56passed, the flames gradually died out.
19:17:58The burned straw turned into warm ashes.
19:18:01Such Chanqing opened his small storage
19:18:03bag, took out a common spiritual
19:18:05artifact rake, and then walked towards
19:18:06the first acre of second grade spiritual
19:18:09field on the left and began to spread
19:18:11the ashes evenly on the black soil.
19:18:13Originally, Hanu could have helped with
19:18:15this step. After all, the Earth Spirit
19:18:17Route is faster and more efficient at
19:18:20loosening the soil. So far, there has
19:18:22been no word from the other party. I
19:18:24don't know if they went to the 38th
19:18:26level of the Earth's veins or came into
19:18:28contact with the yellow energy.
19:18:29Therefore, Su Chongqing had to do it
19:18:31himself. Although it was hard work, it
19:18:33was safer. Why not find another earth
19:18:35elemental spirit? Strangers you've never
19:18:38worked with are ultimately not
19:18:39trustworthy. After finishing the pile on
19:18:41the left, Su Chonqing immediately headed
19:18:44towards the second acre of grade two
19:18:46spirit field on the right. Using the
19:18:48exact same method, the ash was spread
19:18:50evenly on the black soil with a rake. It
19:18:52does take a lot of time for one person,
19:18:54but thankfully he enjoys it. After that,
19:18:57the matter was not over. Next, Su
19:18:59Chongqing brought over the spirit beasts
19:19:01excrement. Then, in the exact same way
19:19:04as before, we began to fertilize the
19:19:06black soil. Ash can indeed increase
19:19:08fertility. But compared to spirit beast
19:19:11excrement, it's still not quite there.
19:19:13The excrement had been processed by the
19:19:15people of Spirit Beast Valley, becoming
19:19:17very dry. With a slight tap of a rake,
19:19:19it immediately crumbled into tiny
19:19:21fragments. After finishing the first Moo
19:19:24of Spiritual Field, we started on the
19:19:26second MO. Three hours had passed after
19:19:28all the spiritual fields had undergone
19:19:30the processes of slash and burn
19:19:32cultivation, spreading ash, and
19:19:34fertilizing. With a rake slung over his
19:19:36right shoulder, Su Chongqing smiled
19:19:38contentedly at the fruits of his labor.
19:19:40Once old Xiao finishes sending down the
19:19:42magical rain, I can start a new round of
19:19:45planting. Then he turned around and went
19:19:47to the ditch where he put the rake,
19:19:49which was covered in dust and excrement,
19:19:51and to wash it a little. Only after
19:19:53ensuring that no residue was visible on
19:19:56the outside was it placed into another
19:19:57small storage bag. Then they walked
19:19:59towards the wooden house and began
19:20:01preparing lunch. About half an hour
19:20:03later, Ziao Zua's voice rang out from
19:20:05outside. Old Su. Hearing the noise, Su
19:20:08Chongqing came out of the house with two
19:20:10slices of watermelon in his hand. You
19:20:13finally arrived. Ziao Zua immediately
19:20:15explained, I was late because I went
19:20:17fishing in a river that was quite far
19:20:19away this time. Su Chongqing approached
19:20:21the other person, handed them a slice of
19:20:23watermelon, and asked, "Did you catch
19:20:25any fish this time?" Ziao Xiua took the
19:20:28watermelon, chuckled, and said proudly,
19:20:30"A small Christian carp." Uh, Su
19:20:32Chongqing was speechless for a moment.
19:20:34While munching on a watermelon, Ziao Xi
19:20:36said, "By the way, I heard from other
19:20:39fishermen that black dragon pool seems
19:20:40to be safe now, and the fish demon
19:20:42hasn't appeared for a long time." Su
19:20:45Chongqing knew the reason, but pretended
19:20:47not to know and said, "Isn't it great?
19:20:49We can fish for dragon fish without
19:20:51worry. Ziao Xuan nodded in deep
19:20:53agreement. That's what I was thinking,
19:20:55too. When shall the three of us go to
19:20:56Black Dragon Pool again? Su Chongqing
19:20:59took a step back and laughed. I probably
19:21:01don't have time to spend with you. Xiao
19:21:03Zua exclaimed, "Eh," and asked
19:21:05curiously, "What do you mean?" Su
19:21:07Chongqing pointed to the two acres of
19:21:09grade two spirit fields in front of him
19:21:11and said, "As you can see, I have to
19:21:14cultivate these two acres of spirit
19:21:16fields now, so I don't have time to go
19:21:17fishing. Most importantly, he caught all
19:21:20the arowanas himself. Going to Black
19:21:22Dragon Pool is a complete waste of time
19:21:24and pointless. That's<unk> true. Ziao
19:21:27Xiuan nodded slightly. Su Choning
19:21:29continued. Moreover, I am currently
19:21:31cooperating with a senior alchemist at
19:21:33the alchemy pavilion, and I will be
19:21:35providing them with medicinal herbs in
19:21:36the future, so I am even more tied up
19:21:38with him. Xiao Xu's eyes widened upon
19:21:41hearing this, a highle alchemist.
19:21:43Although I don't have a deep
19:21:45understanding of elixirs. However, the
19:21:47reason he was able to break through to
19:21:49the foundation establishment pill was
19:21:51because of it. So, he knew how powerful
19:21:53advanced alchemists were. Unexpectedly,
19:21:55after only a few days, Su Chongqing has
19:21:58actually reached a cooperation agreement
19:22:00with a senior alchemist. Does this mean
19:22:02that he can now buy pills through back
19:22:03channels? The two chatted for a while
19:22:05until they finished the watermelon.
19:22:07Then, Ziao Zi began to cast the minor
19:22:10cloud rain technique. Su Chongqing
19:22:12reminded him later. Please send more
19:22:14spiritual rain to the second newly added
19:22:17spiritual field on the right. The
19:22:18nutrients in the black soil are still
19:22:20too low. Xiao Zua nodded. No problem.
19:22:23After he finished, he left immediately.
19:22:26I'm planning to meet with Hubuay to
19:22:28discuss going fishing at Black Dragon
19:22:30Pool. After all, it's a well-known
19:22:32saying in Spirit Beast Valley that as
19:22:34long as you catch a dragonfish, you can
19:22:36become the apprentice of that golden
19:22:37core stage fisherman. Whether it's him
19:22:39or Hubu, if they succeed, they won't
19:22:42need to participate in the formal
19:22:44disciple competition. I am well aware of
19:22:46my own capabilities. Even if you
19:22:48participate, you'll be eliminated after
19:22:50a few rounds. After all, even Lion, the
19:22:53top official disciple of the Imperial
19:22:55Water Pavilion, has now fallen to
19:22:57seventh place on the pre-ompetition
19:22:59rankings. It's easy to imagine how
19:23:01fierce the competition will be in next
19:23:03year's formal disciple competition. Even
19:23:05genius disciples can fail. So the
19:23:08outcome for ordinary formal disciples is
19:23:10predictable. Watching their departing
19:23:12figures, Su Chongqing grinned and said,
19:23:14"You guys go fishing, you'll catch one
19:23:17and not make a sound." Chapter 138.
19:23:20Planting the moon grass by linger comes
19:23:22to find us. 2/3. Chapter 138. Planting
19:23:25moon grass by linger comes to find me.
19:23:282/3. The night sky was cloudless. The
19:23:30moonlight was like water and the stars
19:23:32were few. Because the harvest had just
19:23:35been completed, there were no sounds of
19:23:37insects or frogs. The atmosphere at
19:23:39night was both tranquil and chilly. Now
19:23:41they're spreading ash, fertilizing, and
19:23:43sending down divine rain. With the help
19:23:46of various effects, the nutrients
19:23:47consumed by the first acre of grade 2
19:23:50spiritual field have been restored. Even
19:23:52the second acre of second grade spirit
19:23:54field was much darker than before. At
19:23:57this time, one should logically rest.
19:23:59Such Chonqing stood alone on the edge of
19:24:01the field holding rice seedlings that he
19:24:03had prepared beforehand. He activated
19:24:05the Azure lotus creation technique,
19:24:08stimulating the wood elemental power in
19:24:10his dantion to envelop it all and then
19:24:12flicked his hand, throwing it into the
19:24:14first acre of second grade spirit field
19:24:16in front of him. At first glance, it
19:24:18looks messy and disorganized with bits
19:24:20and pieces here and there. As Su
19:24:22Chongqing activated the wood spirit
19:24:24entanglement technique, he controlled
19:24:27all the rice seedlings within range.
19:24:29Then, after carefully controlling the
19:24:31distance and quantity, he raised his
19:24:33right hand and pressed down. In an
19:24:35instant, rustling sounds rang out one
19:24:37after another. These controlled rice
19:24:39seedlings seemed to automatically burrow
19:24:41into the black soil. Immediately
19:24:43afterwards, Su Chongqing repeated the
19:24:45action using what elemental power to
19:24:47wrap the rice seedlings that needed to
19:24:49be planted, controlling them to burrow
19:24:51into the black soil. After the rice
19:24:53seedlings are planted, the next step is
19:24:55to plant vegetable seeds, sweet
19:24:57potatoes, cabbage, and the like. The
19:25:00seeds are numerous and extremely small.
19:25:02They are not easy to control for any
19:25:04jinseng farmer. Fortunately, reaching
19:25:06the foundation establishment stage
19:25:08activates spiritual consciousness and
19:25:10Sue Chongqing possesses multiple maxle
19:25:12cultivation techniques. So, the
19:25:14difficulty is not great and remains
19:25:16within a controllable range. Finally,
19:25:19some four-leaf clovers were planted
19:25:20around the irrigation ditch. In this
19:25:22way, all the spiritual plants in the
19:25:25first acre of grade 2 spiritual field
19:25:27were ready. Immediately, Su Chonqing
19:25:29shifted his gaze to the second acre of
19:25:31grade two spirit field and pondered,
19:25:33"1,000 bright moon grass plants.
19:25:36Although it sounds like a lot, these
19:25:37things are small in shape and curved
19:25:39like crescent moons. Perhaps there will
19:25:41still be some space left so that I can
19:25:43transfer the mutated spirit plants
19:25:45here." Then he walked along the ridge to
19:25:47the right. Upon arriving directly
19:25:49opposite the second acre of grade 2
19:25:51spirit field, he immediately took out
19:25:53all the bright moon grass seeds from his
19:25:55small storage bag. Using the exact same
19:25:58method as before, he wrapped the seeds
19:26:00in wood elemental energy. Then flicked
19:26:02his hand, throwing them all out and
19:26:04scattering them across the acre of
19:26:06spirit field. Next, using the wood
19:26:09spirit entanglement technique combined
19:26:11with spiritual sense to control the
19:26:13distance and quantity, the seeds of the
19:26:15moon grass were finally controlled to
19:26:17burrow into the black soil. Since we
19:26:19only need to plant moonrass at the
19:26:21moment, the process is very efficient
19:26:23and doesn't take much time. Immediately
19:26:25afterwards, Such Chanqing threw out his
19:26:27companion green lotus. And the moment it
19:26:29landed, it immediately released a green
19:26:32lotus domain that just covered the
19:26:34entire acre of spirit field. Then the
19:26:36wood elemental power in the cheese sea
19:26:39began to be consumed. Meanwhile, the
19:26:41seeds of the moon grass, which normally
19:26:43take three or four nights to germinate,
19:26:45visibly began to grow thanks to a growth
19:26:48enhancing effect similar to pulling up
19:26:50seedlings. The grayish white sprouts
19:26:52gradually emerged from the hard outer
19:26:54shell of the seed. The slender roots
19:26:56explored downwards, absorbing nutrients
19:26:58from the black soil. As time went on, a
19:27:01miraculous scene unfolded on Su
19:27:03Choning<unk>s side. The spiritual field
19:27:05before them became even brighter. It
19:27:08seemed to have attracted the moonlight
19:27:09emanating from the moon. The soil, which
19:27:12had turned somewhat grayish black after
19:27:14being covered with ash, fertilized, and
19:27:16rained on, now appears to be covered
19:27:18with a layer of silvery white quicksand.
19:27:20This scene is like a dream. Su Chonqing
19:27:23couldn't help but say, "The moon grass
19:27:25only grows after absorbing moonlight.
19:27:28Now I've accelerated this process
19:27:29through the Azure lotus domain, and I
19:27:31didn't expect it to have such a magical
19:27:33effect of gathering moonlight. If one
19:27:35cultivates the tying technique, this
19:27:38opportunity will definitely allow them
19:27:39to improve their strength.
19:27:41Unfortunately, Such Chongqing was not
19:27:43one of them, so he could only watch
19:27:45helplessly. Nourished by the rich
19:27:47moonlight, the moon grass grew faster
19:27:49and faster. At first, it was just
19:27:51sprouting. It grew to an inch in no
19:27:54time. It should be noted that the moon
19:27:56grass is considered mature when it
19:27:58reaches 7 in in diameter. Therefore, it
19:28:01doesn't take a month or 20 days at all.
19:28:03It can be harvested in 10 or 15 days. If
19:28:06Yukaiing knew about this efficiency, she
19:28:08would definitely be astonished. She had
19:28:10never encountered a spiritual farmer
19:28:12with such a fast planting speed. It
19:28:14wasn't until late at night when Su
19:28:16Chonging would elemental energy in his
19:28:18dantion was almost completely depleted
19:28:20that he stopped. He first retrieved the
19:28:23green lotus from the spirit field and
19:28:24then walked towards the wooden house. I
19:28:27can finally sleep. The next day arrived
19:28:30because he had used up a lot of energy
19:28:31last night. Su Chongqing didn't get up
19:28:33until this morning. Just as I was
19:28:35drifting off to sleep, I suddenly felt a
19:28:37slight vibration coming from my small
19:28:39storage bag. Upon taking it out, I
19:28:42discovered it was a communication
19:28:43talisman that hadn't been used in a long
19:28:45time. He infused a wisp of wood
19:28:47elemental energy into his ears and then
19:28:50placed them over them. Hello, Su
19:28:52Chonqing. Yes, it's me. My sister
19:28:54allowed me to come see you. Your sister?
19:28:57Your sister? Who is your sister? My
19:29:00sister is by Jour and I am Bing. Um,
19:29:03Such Chongqing, who had been drowsy,
19:29:05suddenly opened his eyes upon hearing
19:29:07this. He instantly regained
19:29:09consciousness, then took the
19:29:10communication talisman in his hand and
19:29:13examined it. Good heavens, it really is
19:29:15by Linger's communication talisman. She
19:29:18thought her sister Bhuer would continue
19:29:20to keep an eye on things and not allow
19:29:22her to come over. Now, it seems that as
19:29:24my strength has increased, the other
19:29:26party's attitude has also changed. Just
19:29:28then, Binger's voice came from the other
19:29:30side. I can help you make it rain now.
19:29:33Su Chanqing paused for a moment, then
19:29:35said awkwardly, "Well, I don't think
19:29:37there's any rush." Although Bilinger was
19:29:40petite, she wasn't stupid and
19:29:42immediately understood. "You have
19:29:44someone else helping you?" Such
19:29:45Chongqing had to admit, "Yes, I know a
19:29:48Foundation establishment stage fisherman
19:29:50from the Imperial Water Pavilion. He
19:29:51comes to the spirit field every few days
19:29:54to perform the minor cloud rain
19:29:55technique." First of all, this can't be
19:29:58kept secret. Secondly, Lao Xiao<unk>s
19:30:00little cloud rain technique is more
19:30:02advanced than Bingeras. In addition,
19:30:04Binger wanted money, but Lao Xiao did
19:30:06not. No matter how you compare them,
19:30:08Xiao Zua offers better value for money.
19:30:11Binger asked with some disappointment.
19:30:13Then, can I play with you? Su Chongqing
19:30:15smiled slightly. Of course, you are
19:30:18welcome anytime. Then, I'll come find
19:30:20you now. Binger said and then ended the
19:30:22communication. Such Chanqing looked at
19:30:24the communication talisman that had lost
19:30:26its power and couldn't help but scratch
19:30:28his head. He originally wanted to sleep
19:30:30a little longer to recover his energy.
19:30:33Seeing that Binger was coming, he had no
19:30:35choice but to reluctantly get out of
19:30:37bed. First go outside and clean up the
19:30:39droppings of the guinea fowl and other
19:30:41birds. Then he went to the chicken coupe
19:30:43and put his right hand inside. Then to
19:30:45the guinea fowl's astonishment, the two
19:30:47eggs were removed. Then we started
19:30:49making breakfast which was even more
19:30:51lavish because there was one more
19:30:53person. About half an hour later by
19:30:55Linger's voice came from outside. Su
19:30:57Chongqing, I'm here. Hearing the noise,
19:31:00Such Chongqing slowly walked out of the
19:31:02house and looked up. In the sky, a paper
19:31:05crane is slowly descending. The problem
19:31:07is there's not only by Linger on the
19:31:09crane's back, but also another familiar
19:31:11person. Chapter 139. Free sexual
19:31:14encounters. Two women's competitive
19:31:16spirit. 3/3. Chapter 139 freebies in the
19:31:20cloud and rain technique. Two women's
19:31:22competitive spirit three who came with
19:31:24bilingo Jang Shua. She is petite and
19:31:27cute. She has a pure and beautiful
19:31:30appearance. They look more like sisters.
19:31:32After Su Chongqing and the other two
19:31:34landed, they asked, "Why did you two
19:31:36come together?" Binger explained, "When
19:31:38I went out, I happened to run into
19:31:40senior sister Jeang. When she heard that
19:31:42I was looking for you, she came with
19:31:44me." At this moment, Jeang Schu asked
19:31:46softly, "Won't<unk>t this disturb you."
19:31:48Su Chongqing waved his hand. "It's not
19:31:51that bad." Upon hearing this, Binger and
19:31:53Jeang Schweb both smiled. As Su
19:31:56Chongqing walked towards the house, he
19:31:58asked, "Would you like to have breakfast
19:31:59together?" Binger's eyes lit up.
19:32:02Although I've already eaten, I can still
19:32:04try it. Su Chonqing was not surprised at
19:32:06all by this. This person is a complete
19:32:09foodie. They're happy whenever there's
19:32:10delicious food. Even if they've already
19:32:12eaten breakfast, they'll still want to
19:32:14taste it. Jean Shua asked quite
19:32:16surprised. You just had breakfast. Su
19:32:19Chongqing nodded. I've recently been
19:32:21cultivating a spiritual plant called
19:32:23bright moon grass, which only grows at
19:32:25night, so I have to stay up all night to
19:32:27take care of it. Upon hearing this,
19:32:29Binger and Jeang glanced at the spirit
19:32:32fields on both sides. Soon, some grayish
19:32:35white grass-like spiritual plants could
19:32:37be seen in the spiritual field on the
19:32:38right. The part that emerged from the
19:32:40soil was about an inch long. It seems
19:32:42this is the bright moon grass that Su
19:32:45Chongqing mentioned. However, neither of
19:32:47them had ever heard of this spiritual
19:32:49plant and didn't recognize it at all.
19:32:51So, they didn't pay any attention to it.
19:32:53The three then went inside the house.
19:32:55Since it was breakfast, it wasn't
19:32:57prepared to be particularly lavish. A
19:32:59plate of fried rice with eggs. A plate
19:33:01of boiled cabbage. Each grain of fried
19:33:03rice is plump and glistening like a jade
19:33:05bead. slightly brown egg flowers the
19:33:08dish giving it an oily sheen. The leaves
19:33:11of the cabbage are snow white and
19:33:12translucent resembling a piece of ice
19:33:15jade when still the soup was crystal
19:33:17clear with a faint luminous glow. Even
19:33:20though Binger and Jeangu had already
19:33:22eaten breakfast, they still had a great
19:33:24appetite upon seeing this. Binger felt
19:33:27the dishes looked familiar but couldn't
19:33:28quite place them. So she asked
19:33:30curiously, "What are the names of these
19:33:32two dishes?" Su Chongqing introduced
19:33:34with a smile. These two dishes are not
19:33:37simple. The one on the left is called
19:33:39golden glow stir-fried sun and moon and
19:33:42the one on the right is called pure
19:33:43white jade soup. Although the method is
19:33:46very simple, the name is quite
19:33:48sophisticated. At first glance, it seems
19:33:50as if only immortals are qualified to
19:33:52taste it. It looks delicious. It smells
19:33:55so good. The name sounds nice. Binger
19:33:57and Jeang Shu couldn't help but swallow
19:33:59hard. Seeing this, Su Chongqing picked
19:34:02up the bowls and chopsticks and ladled
19:34:04two bowls of fried rice and two bowls of
19:34:06cabbage soup for the two of them. Binger
19:34:08and Jeang Schwa couldn't wait to take a
19:34:10bite of the golden glow fried sun and
19:34:12moon, and their eyes widened
19:34:14immediately. The rice is fragrant and
19:34:16chewy. The broken egg yolk has a
19:34:18slightly caramelized flavor when you
19:34:20bite into it. Although it's just a
19:34:21simple combination of rice and eggs, it
19:34:24tastes exceptionally good. After the
19:34:26first bite, I wanted a second. The two
19:34:28quickly finished their egg fried rice.
19:34:30Then it was Taisu White Jade Soup's
19:34:32turn. The name itself has an ethereal
19:34:34quality. The soup is incredibly sweet
19:34:36and delicious, like biting into a spring
19:34:39of pure water. Although the aftertaste
19:34:41is bland, it leaves you feeling
19:34:43exceptionally comfortable after drinking
19:34:45it. Jeang Schwa couldn't help but
19:34:47exclaim, "Fellow Daist Su, with your
19:34:49current culinary skills, you are already
19:34:51qualified to be a spirit chef." Su
19:34:54Chongqing was taken aback. What is a
19:34:56spirit chef? Jeangu explained, "It's a
19:34:58profession that specializes in making
19:35:00delicious food, even rarer than
19:35:02alchemists or array masters. It's said
19:35:05that a skilled spirit chef can help
19:35:07someone break through their cultivation
19:35:08level just by making the food they
19:35:10prepare." Su Chongqing said, "Oh,
19:35:13seemingly understanding, but not quite.
19:35:15After all, he was just cooking according
19:35:17to the method he remembered. The entire
19:35:19process involved almost no major
19:35:21changes. The only difference is that the
19:35:23ingredients used are all imbued with a
19:35:25rich spiritual energy. However, the
19:35:28delicious food resulted in Such
19:35:30Chongqing barely got a few bites before
19:35:32the two women devoured it all. Looking
19:35:34at the empty porcelain bowl, Binger
19:35:36grinned foolishly. This is her usual
19:35:38tactic. As long as she isn't
19:35:40embarrassed, it's others who will be.
19:35:42Jeang Schu said apologetically, "Sorry,
19:35:44I accidentally ate it all." Su Chonqing
19:35:47didn't care at all and even felt a sense
19:35:49of accomplishment. as long as you like
19:35:51to eat it. Anyone who cooks wants their
19:35:53culinary skills to be recognized by
19:35:55others. Therefore, although I didn't eat
19:35:57much, I wasn't angry at all. Jeang still
19:36:00felt guilty. After thinking it over, she
19:36:02stamped her foot and said, "How about
19:36:05this? I'll perform the lesser cloud rain
19:36:07technique on you for free." Binger
19:36:09nodded in agreement. "Yes, yes, we won't
19:36:12eat your cooking for free." Upon hearing
19:36:14this, Su Chongqing<unk>s lips curled up,
19:36:16but he still said with feigned
19:36:18reluctance, "Oh dear, how could I
19:36:20possibly allow you to each use your
19:36:22minor cloud rain technique once in my
19:36:24two acres of spiritual fields?" "It's
19:36:26all right. It's all right." Jeanga waved
19:36:28her hand and turned to walk towards the
19:36:30spirit field outside. Binger drank the
19:36:32last bit of cabbage soup at the bottom
19:36:34of the bowl before skipping and hopping
19:36:36after him. Such Chongqing holding a bowl
19:36:39and chopsticks watched the two women's
19:36:41retreating figures without any intention
19:36:43of stopping them. Thank you for your
19:36:45hard work. However, the more he said
19:36:47that Binger and Jeangu felt even more
19:36:50guilty. There are fewer spiritual plants
19:36:52in the spiritual fields on the right, so
19:36:54you go there. All right, then I'll leave
19:36:56the spirit field on the left to you,
19:36:58senior sister. Junior sister, don't be
19:37:01lazy. Don't worry. I would never betray
19:37:04Su Chongqing. Immediately the two women
19:37:06stood on the edge of the field and began
19:37:09to perform the lesser cloud rain
19:37:10technique. After washing the dishes, Su
19:37:13Chonqing came out and his eyes widened
19:37:15in surprise. Logically speaking, Jeang
19:37:17Schwe should be older, so her little
19:37:19cloud rain technique should be more
19:37:21powerful. Unexpectedly, Binger, who was
19:37:24younger, proved to be more skilled. 2
19:37:26acres of sacred land. The one on the
19:37:28left is Jeang Shua. The one on the right
19:37:30is Bing. by Linger's little cloud rain
19:37:33technique has already begun to possess
19:37:35the oppressive feeling of dark clouds.
19:37:37The spiritual rain falling from within
19:37:39was fierce and torrential. On the other
19:37:42hand, Jeang's color, although covering a
19:37:44wider area, was not deep enough. It
19:37:47looks like a dark cloud. The other one
19:37:49remains in a foggy state. In fact, it
19:37:52wasn't just Su Chongqing who noticed it.
19:37:54Jean Shu was also greatly surprised to
19:37:56see that her junior sister's little
19:37:58cloud rain technique was more powerful
19:38:00than her own. To avoid losing face, she
19:38:02increased the consumption of water
19:38:04elemental power as much as possible. As
19:38:06a result, the rainfall increased
19:38:08dramatically, making a loud splashing
19:38:11sound. The rice seedlings below received
19:38:13the nourishment of the rainwater and
19:38:15absorbed more nutrients. On the other
19:38:17side, Binger felt inexplicably provoked
19:38:20when she saw her senior sister increase
19:38:22her intensity, so she couldn't help but
19:38:24increase her intensity as well. The
19:38:26atmosphere between the two women
19:38:28gradually became strange. It was clearly
19:38:30to help Su Chongqing use the minor cloud
19:38:32rain technique to nourish the spiritual
19:38:34plants. Unexpectedly, the two of them
19:38:37ended up competing with each other.
19:38:39Neither side is willing to concede to
19:38:41the other. It's a battle of wills to see
19:38:43who gives in first. The key is that the
19:38:45water spirit is known for its
19:38:47long-asting spiritual power. The main
19:38:49selling point is large portions that
19:38:51will fill you up. At first, Su Chongqing
19:38:53was happy to see this since he was the
19:38:55one who benefited. However, as time went
19:38:58on, the water in the spirit field
19:39:00increased and the water level even began
19:39:02to rise. He panicked immediately and
19:39:04rushed forward, shouting, "Stop! My
19:39:07spiritual plants are going to drown."
19:39:09"Chapter 140. Mutant rice doubled. More
19:39:12cooking tonight, January 3rd." Chapter
19:39:15140. Mutant rice doubled. Continue
19:39:17cooking tonight. January 3rd. Upon
19:39:19hearing Su Chongqing<unk>s shout, the
19:39:21two awakened from a dream. They all
19:39:23stopped the escalating little cloud rain
19:39:25technique. When the spiritual energy
19:39:27supply ceased, the two clouds above the
19:39:30spiritual field began to dissipate.
19:39:32Despite the abundant spiritual rain, the
19:39:35spiritual fields did not smell fresh
19:39:37after the rain. Instead, they smelled of
19:39:39a stench from leaked rotten matter.
19:39:41Jeangu apologized first. Fellow Daist
19:39:44Su, I'm so sorry. I got carried away.
19:39:47Um, Binger clutched the hem of her
19:39:49clothes, looking very nervous. Su
19:39:51Chongqing glanced at the two apologetic
19:39:53faces, then at the spirit field and
19:39:56frowned, saying, "I have other things to
19:39:58attend to, so I won't continue
19:40:00entertaining you. Go back to the
19:40:01Imperial Water Pavilion." Hearing him
19:40:03order to leave, Jehua opened her mouth,
19:40:06but couldn't utter a single word. Binger
19:40:09looked agrieved and quite depressed. "I
19:40:11finally managed to come all this way,
19:40:13but I never expected to have to leave
19:40:14now. But I really did something wrong
19:40:16this time, and I'm too embarrassed to
19:40:18stay any longer. I'm sorry, junior
19:40:20sister. I shouldn't have gotten carried
19:40:22away. Senior sister, I'm hooked, too.
19:40:25Then, let's still be best friends.
19:40:27Uh-huh. Let's go back to the Imperial
19:40:29Water Pavilion. After a few words, their
19:40:31relationship was restored to normal.
19:40:33Then, holding hands, they rode a paper
19:40:36crane towards the other side of the
19:40:37spirit field, disappearing into the
19:40:40horizon in no time. Su Chongqing<unk>s
19:40:42eyes widened, his expression one of
19:40:44disbelief. They've made up already. Once
19:40:46the two women left, Linton finally
19:40:49quieted down. Although the rainfall was
19:40:51abundant, the irrigation canals were not
19:40:53dug for nothing. Without the continuous
19:40:55rainfall from the lesser cloud rain
19:40:57technique, the water level in the spirit
19:40:59field began to slowly drop. Such Choning
19:41:02reacted quickly, hurriedly went inside
19:41:04to take out several wooden buckets,
19:41:06filled them with spirit water mixed with
19:41:08spirit beast excrement, and quickly
19:41:10headed towards the stone mountain.
19:41:12Because of the concealment array, the
19:41:14scent of the mutated spirit rice was
19:41:16masked and not a trace of it could be
19:41:18smelled from the outside. However, Su
19:41:20Chongqing knew very well that the
19:41:22mutated spiritual plants in the Rocky
19:41:24Mountain had definitely matured. I've
19:41:26always taken care of it myself, so I'm
19:41:28good at judging the timing. Sure enough,
19:41:30as soon as he moved the stone blocking
19:41:32the entrance and entered with the
19:41:33bucket, he immediately smelled a rich
19:41:36fragrance of herbs and trees as soon as
19:41:38he crossed the area covered by the
19:41:40portable array. Even before getting
19:41:42close, their eyes caught a glimmer of
19:41:44golden light. The mature mutant spirit
19:41:46rice not only exudes a rich aroma, but
19:41:49also radiates a dazzling golden light.
19:41:51The number of rice ears has increased
19:41:53from the original 6 to 12. Each one was
19:41:56so heavy that it bent the mutated rice
19:41:58plants over. Mutant rice mature,
19:42:01undamaged, abundant spiritual energy
19:42:04yield 80 gene. Apart from the mutated
19:42:06mother rice plant in the middle that
19:42:08cannot be harvested, the remaining
19:42:10mutant rice plants one by one all showed
19:42:13signs of maturity. Unfortunately,
19:42:15because the number planted was not large
19:42:17enough, even if the yield doubled, it
19:42:19was still not enough. Such Chongqing put
19:42:22the bucket aside, took out a sickle from
19:42:24his small storage bag, and then swung it
19:42:26without hesitation. Harvesting one
19:42:28mutant rice plant increases its lifespan
19:42:30by 10 days. Harvesting 50 mutant rice
19:42:34plants increased lifespan by 500 days.
19:42:37Harvesting 100 mutant rice plants
19:42:39increases lifespan by 1,000 days.
19:42:42Current remaining lifespan 710 years.
19:42:45The lifespan of mutated spiritual plants
19:42:47is indeed longer than that of ordinary
19:42:50spiritual plants. Given the opportunity,
19:42:52Su Chongqing will definitely replace a
19:42:54portion of them. His small storage bag
19:42:56contained a large number of mutated rice
19:42:59seeds. As the harvest continued, the
19:43:01once crowded interior of the Rocky
19:43:03Mountain suddenly became spacious. In
19:43:05the black soil, only one mutated mother
19:43:08rice plant stands alone. It has nine
19:43:10ears of rice, and the rice seeds on each
19:43:12ear are exceptionally plump. If mutant
19:43:15rice is like a gold particle, that
19:43:17mutated mother rice is the golden pearl.
19:43:19Such Chonqing scanned the rice patties
19:43:21with his spiritual sense to check their
19:43:23condition. Fushing mutant mother rice,
19:43:26many children, many blessings. Riky
19:43:28cultivation domain tu jang special
19:43:31effect doubles the yield of spirit rice
19:43:34within the area. The yield of this
19:43:35mutant rice is higher than before. The
19:43:38main reason is that the mother rice that
19:43:40mutated twice has a special effect. As
19:43:42long as it is within the designated
19:43:44area, the yield of all spirit rice will
19:43:46double. The effects were phenomenal and
19:43:48the benefits were beyond imagination.
19:43:51Once the moon grass matures, other
19:43:53spiritual plants can be planted. with
19:43:55some camouflage added. The mutated
19:43:57mother rice should be able to see the
19:43:59light of day again. Su Chongqing put
19:44:01away the sickle, then took out a pot of
19:44:03sunflowers. This was a gift from my
19:44:05senior brother, Jeang Su, and I've been
19:44:07keeping it on the windows sill to absorb
19:44:09sunlight. The temperature immediately
19:44:11rose as soon as we stepped outside.
19:44:13Furthermore, it emits a golden light
19:44:15similar to sunlight. When the light
19:44:17shines on a person, you can even feel a
19:44:19slight warmth. Su Chongqing chuckled and
19:44:22said, "Mother rice. Mother rice, I can
19:44:25only ask you to make do with this
19:44:26sunflower for now. I will definitely
19:44:28transplant you out whenever I have the
19:44:30chance." After saying that, he broke off
19:44:32the nine ears of rice hanging above.
19:44:35Then carefully loosened the soil with a
19:44:37rake. Finally, they poured out the
19:44:39spiritual water mixed with spirit beast
19:44:41excrement to irrigate the plants. 10
19:44:44minutes later, Su Chonqing packed up all
19:44:46his things and turned to leave. But when
19:44:48I passed by the concealment array, I
19:44:50made a point of digging it out and
19:44:51checking it. Seeing that the spiritual
19:44:53energy in the low-grade spirit stone was
19:44:56about to be exhausted, he immediately
19:44:58added another one. They then went
19:44:59outside and blocked the entrance again
19:45:01with large stones. Sure enough, when Su
19:45:04Chongqing returned to the spirit field,
19:45:06the water level had returned to a safe
19:45:08height. Apart from some spirit beast
19:45:10droppings being washed out by the rain,
19:45:12there were no major problems overall.
19:45:14Seeing this, Su Chongqing summoned his
19:45:17companion green lotus and threw it into
19:45:19the first acre of second grade spirit
19:45:21field. He had already decided to
19:45:23cultivate the first acre during the day
19:45:24and the second acre at night. Although
19:45:27doing this greatly depletes spiritual
19:45:29energy, it is also a form of training.
19:45:31Each time the spiritual energy is
19:45:33depleted and then replenished, one can
19:45:35clearly feel that the spiritual energy
19:45:37becomes more concentrated. Moreover, the
19:45:40efficiency of refining the spiritual
19:45:42energy consumed is also improved. Time
19:45:45flies and night falls from daytime. As
19:45:47soon as the moon appeared, the moon
19:45:49grass began to gather the moonlight.
19:45:51Between the two acres of spiritual
19:45:53fields, it's clear that the right side
19:45:55is brighter. 1,000 bright moon grass
19:45:58plants possess abilities similar to
19:46:00those of sunflowers. One is to absorb
19:46:02moonlight to grow. One is to absorb
19:46:04sunlight to grow. The only difference is
19:46:06that the moon grass does not have the
19:46:08ability to store. Moonlight is their
19:46:10nourishment. The more they absorb, the
19:46:13faster they grow. This time, Such
19:46:15Chongqing was smarter and brought over a
19:46:17wooden chair. Last night, I stood
19:46:19foolishly on the edge of the field for a
19:46:21long time until I was exhausted. Now,
19:46:23it's much more relaxing. Not only are
19:46:25there chairs to sit on, but there's also
19:46:27plenty of food and drink. Even Wong Wong
19:46:30came over, curiously, observing the
19:46:32situation in the spirit field that it
19:46:34couldn't understand. Such Chonqing
19:46:36plopped down and then waved his hand.
19:46:38Instantly, the accompanying green lotus
19:46:40flew drip drip toward the bright moon
19:46:42grass. Once it landed in the center, the
19:46:45Azure lotus domain instantly expanded. A
19:46:48refreshing coolness spread like a breeze
19:46:50and instantly the moon grass illuminated
19:46:53by the moonlight rippled with silvery
19:46:55waves. Chapter 141, the end of month
19:46:58bonus. The gourd is complete. 2/3.
19:47:00Chapter 141, the end of month bonus. The
19:47:03gourd has been refined. 2/3. Seven days
19:47:06have passed in the blink of an eye. Su
19:47:08Chonqing cultivated the first move of
19:47:10second grade spiritual fields during the
19:47:12day. Tonight we will cultivate the
19:47:14second acre of second grade spiritual
19:47:16field. Under almost frenzied
19:47:18cultivation, the spiritual plants in the
19:47:20two acres of spiritual fields grew
19:47:22faster and faster, changing almost every
19:47:25day. Especially the moonflower, which
19:47:27normally takes a month to mature. As a
19:47:30result, in just 7 days, it has grown to
19:47:324 in. You should know that they can be
19:47:34harvested when they reach 7 in.
19:47:36Therefore, it is basically the same as
19:47:38Sue Choning<unk>s previous prediction.
19:47:40The bright moon grass will definitely
19:47:42mature in about 10 days to half a month.
19:47:45In the morning, Su Chongqing was using
19:47:47the Azure lotus domain to cultivate the
19:47:49spiritual rice in the first acre of
19:47:51spiritual field. Just then, the spirit
19:47:54sensed someone approaching. There were
19:47:56still two people. Upon seeing this, he
19:47:58immediately retrieved the companion
19:48:00lotus. As they got closer, they
19:48:02discovered that the people approaching
19:48:03were Hubu and Ziao Xiwa. Su Chongqing
19:48:07stepped forward to greet them. What
19:48:08brings you here? Hu Buguay grinned.
19:48:11It's<unk> the end of the month. Time to
19:48:12split the money. Upon hearing this, Su
19:48:15Chongqing finally realized what was
19:48:16happening. As previously agreed, the
19:48:19spirit stones earned by the forging peak
19:48:21would be distributed once a month. It
19:48:23happened to be the last day of October.
19:48:25The three of them immediately went into
19:48:27the wooden house and made sure to close
19:48:28the door. Such Chanqing, Hubu, and Ziao
19:48:32Xi sat around the dinner table. Hubuay
19:48:34took out a small storage bag and placed
19:48:36it heavily on the table. He then
19:48:38explained, "This is a small storage bag
19:48:40that I bought specifically to store the
19:48:42spirit stones we earned from the forging
19:48:44peak." Su Chongqing glanced at Xiao Xiua
19:48:47and seeing that the other party did not
19:48:48react, it seemed that he already knew.
19:48:51He didn't care about it. He was a
19:48:52hands-off manager only providing fruits,
19:48:55vegetables, and spirit rice wine. As for
19:48:57how much money I can make, I don't care
19:48:59as much as I did at the beginning. Their
19:49:01attention is now focused on their own
19:49:03spiritual fields and the market town for
19:49:05independent cultivators. Then Hubui
19:49:08opened the small storage bag and poured
19:49:10out the spirit stones inside. In no
19:49:13time, the food was spilled all over the
19:49:15table and a lot of it fell to the floor.
19:49:17But it didn't stop. It kept falling out.
19:49:20Gradually, it became too small to fit on
19:49:22a table and had to be placed on the
19:49:24floor. In the end, the entire living
19:49:26room of the wooden house was almost
19:49:28entirely covered with spirit stones. The
19:49:30smaller ones are all low-grade spirit
19:49:32stones, and there are a lot of them. The
19:49:34larger ones are mid-grade spirit stones,
19:49:36and there seemed to be far fewer of
19:49:38them. The cabin was unusually quiet at
19:49:40this moment with only the heavy
19:49:42breathing of the three people. Su
19:49:44Chongqing and Ziao Xua looked at it so
19:49:46many times that their eyes were blurry.
19:49:48Hubui glanced at the two of them and
19:49:50said with a hint of pride, "This month,
19:49:52although fewer people have joined, the
19:49:55number of people buying ingredients and
19:49:56resources from us has increased several
19:49:58times over." Su Chongqing urged, "Stop
19:50:01keeping me in suspense and just tell me
19:50:03how much it is." Hubuay picked up the 20
19:50:06mid-grade spirit stones and said
19:50:08happily, "These 20 are our total cost
19:50:11for October." Xiao Zu<unk>s eyes
19:50:13widened. "The cost is only 20 mid-grade
19:50:16spirit stones." Hubu stopped keeping him
19:50:19in suspense and continued. Excluding the
19:50:21last day of October, we earned a total
19:50:23of 440 mid-grade spirit stones and 5,683
19:50:28lowgrade spirit stones. Su Chongqing
19:50:31exclaimed in surprise, "So many," Ziao
19:50:34Zu had gasped in shock. "H!" He could
19:50:36calculate that the spirit stones he
19:50:38could earn by recruiting others would be
19:50:40around 300. "I never expected it to be
19:50:42this many. It far exceeded my
19:50:44expectations. Although fewer people are
19:50:46joining the franchise, more and more
19:50:48people are buying ingredients. Not only
19:50:50the stall owners, but also many
19:50:52customers who had eaten the barbecue,
19:50:54premium fruits and vegetables, and
19:50:56spirit rice wine began to actively seek
19:50:58out Hubuay. That's why they made a
19:51:00fortune in October. Hubuay quickly said,
19:51:03"Old Sue, you're smart. Let's figure out
19:51:05how to divide it." Xiao Zua reminded
19:51:08him, "Yes, but don't forget that Li
19:51:10Sankai still accounts for 20%." Upon
19:51:13hearing this, Su Chan began to think
19:51:15carefully. Le Sanankai helped them last
19:51:17time, so he received 20% of the total
19:51:19profit. However, mid-grade spirit stones
19:51:22and low-grade spirit stones should be
19:51:24distinguished. They can't all be counted
19:51:26together. Therefore, Liankai received 88
19:51:29mid-grade spirit stones and 12 24
19:51:32lowgrade spirit stones. The remaining
19:51:34portion was then divided among the three
19:51:36of them. He himself owned 70% of it,
19:51:38receiving 246 mid-grade spirit stones
19:51:41and 3,182
19:51:43lowgrade spirit stones. Hubui took 20%
19:51:47receiving 70 mid-grade spirit stones and
19:51:5099 lowgrade spirit stones. Xiao Zua took
19:51:53onetenth of the share receiving 35
19:51:56mid-grade spirit stones and 454 lowgrade
19:51:59spirit stones. With so many spirit
19:52:01stones, I can buy a better fishing rod.
19:52:04Look at your pathetic self. If you had
19:52:06money, you'd definitely invest more and
19:52:08buy even more spirit beasts. This was
19:52:10indeed a bit unexpected. The three of
19:52:12them were quite surprised to receive so
19:52:14many spirit stones. Hubuay and Xiao Xiua
19:52:18in particular could hardly contain their
19:52:20spending. However, although they were
19:52:22excited and anxious, they did not act
19:52:24recklessly. Su Chonqing will definitely
19:52:27have to come in person to divide the
19:52:28money. These are the rules and they
19:52:30cannot be transgressed. Seeing how
19:52:32impatient the two were, Su Chonqing
19:52:35didn't delay any longer and divided the
19:52:37spirit stones one by one. After an
19:52:39incense stick had burned, apart from the
19:52:4288 medium grade coins and 12 24 lowgrade
19:52:45coins belonging to Li Sanankai, which
19:52:47were placed on the ground, Su Chongqing,
19:52:49Hubuay, and Xiao Ziwa all put them into
19:52:52their storage bags. Hubuay looked at the
19:52:54remaining spirit stones on the ground
19:52:56and pondered, "Old Su, you and senior
19:52:59brother Lee are the closest. Why don't
19:53:01you make a trip yourself?" Ziao Xiua
19:53:03then said, "Of course, if you need
19:53:05anything, I can deliver it over." Of the
19:53:07three, he was the most relaxed. He's
19:53:10either fishing or on his way to fish all
19:53:12day long. As for things like cultivation
19:53:14and talisman making, I've hardly ever
19:53:16done them. However, its strength has not
19:53:18only not stagnated, but has even been
19:53:20slowly increasing. Su Chongqing waved
19:53:23his hand. No, I happen to have some
19:53:25time. I'll go there myself. It wasn't
19:53:28because I didn't trust Ziao Xiu and
19:53:29Hubu. They are not problematic in terms
19:53:32of character. The main purpose was to
19:53:34express gratitude to senior brother Lee
19:53:36and personally delivering the gift
19:53:38showed that it was given more
19:53:39importance. Upon hearing this, Hubui and
19:53:42Xiao Zua nodded. Before leaving, Ziao
19:53:45Ziwa asked, "Old Su, do you need me to
19:53:47use the lesser cloud rain technique?" Su
19:53:50Chongqing<unk>s expression changed
19:53:51slightly, and for the first time, he
19:53:53refused the other party's offer. No need
19:53:56for now. The situation of the spirit
19:53:57field is still acceptable. Seeing this,
19:54:00Ziao Xied did not insist. and went out
19:54:03with Hubu. As they walked, the two
19:54:05discussed going to Black Dragon Pool to
19:54:07fish for dragonfish. Anyway, I'm well
19:54:10off now, and there's no danger over
19:54:12there anymore. Watching the two figures
19:54:14walk further and further away, Su
19:54:16Chongqing picked up the spirit stones on
19:54:18the ground, put them into another small
19:54:20storage bag, and then took out senior
19:54:22brother Lee's communication talisman.
19:54:24Just as I was about to ask if the other
19:54:26party was available, another
19:54:27communication talisman vibrated
19:54:29slightly. Hello, brother. Your storage
19:54:32item, the Azure Gourd, is ready. Come
19:54:34and get it, sis. Can I go this
19:54:36afternoon? What are you saying? You can
19:54:38come anytime. How could I possibly
19:54:40refuse? Okay, I'll go pick up the Azure
19:54:43Gourd this afternoon. Chapter 142.
19:54:46Shockingly, Sanankai, new storage item,
19:54:48March 3rd. Chapter 142, Shockingly
19:54:51Sankai, new storage item, March 3rd.
19:54:54After chatting with Sister Zu, Su
19:54:56Chongqing began contacting Senior
19:54:58Brotherly. Upon learning that the other
19:54:59party was at home, he immediately rode
19:55:02the big leaf grass there. As they got
19:55:04closer, they saw that there was more
19:55:05than one person. Besides Liangai, there
19:55:08was another woman. She has a classic
19:55:10oval face, thin eyebrows, and thin lips.
19:55:13He doesn't look very old, and he's not
19:55:15very tall. A burning flame was
19:55:17embroidered on his chest. Just then, the
19:55:20woman spoke up. Cousin, you haven't been
19:55:22back to the family in a long time.
19:55:24Everyone misses you. Upon hearing this,
19:55:26Lissa's eyes flashed with disgust, but
19:55:29he then said expressionlessly, "Karen,
19:55:31this is my home." Liang Lean couldn't
19:55:34help but ask, "What happened back then
19:55:36is in the past, so why won't you let it
19:55:38go, cousin?" Li Sanankai sneered and
19:55:40questioned, "If your parents died
19:55:42because of family infighting, could you
19:55:44just let it go like that?" Well, Lie was
19:55:47taken aback, and after a while, she said
19:55:49softly, "The family has been developing
19:55:51very well in recent years. As long as
19:55:54you go back and apologize to the new
19:55:55patriarch, you can regain cultivation
19:55:57resources every month, at least three
19:56:00mid-grade spirit stones and 50 low-grade
19:56:02spirit stones. Liengai had not returned
19:56:05to his family for a long time because of
19:56:07the death of his parents. The
19:56:08cultivation resources that should have
19:56:10been theirs were distributed to other
19:56:12younger generations. Over the years, it
19:56:14seems that they have been entirely
19:56:15self-sufficient thanks to the spiritual
19:56:17fields. Now all they need to do is go
19:56:20back and apologize to the new clan chief
19:56:22to regain their benefits. But the other
19:56:24party was too stubborn, leaving no room
19:56:27for compromise. Senior brother, at this
19:56:29moment, Su Chongqing landed on the big
19:56:31leaf grass. Lee Sani beckoned. Come in.
19:56:35The fence gate was open. Of course, you
19:56:37can come in even if it's locked up. This
19:56:39thing is purely for show. It keeps out
19:56:41honest people, but not scoundrels. Su
19:56:44Chongqing glanced at the unfamiliar
19:56:45woman and asked, "And who is this?" Li
19:56:48Sanankai gave a brief introduction. "My
19:56:50cousin named Lie Xiang Lein has awakened
19:56:53the fire spirit route and recently
19:56:55became a full-fledged employee. She's
19:56:57here to discuss planting medicinal
19:56:59herbs." Su Chongqing suddenly realized,
19:57:01"Oh, I see." Li then pointed to him and
19:57:05introduced him. Su Chongqing, a very
19:57:07close junior brother of mine, is now
19:57:09also a foundation establishment stage
19:57:11spiritual farmer. Upon hearing this, Lie
19:57:14Xiang Lean hurly cupped her hands in
19:57:16greeting and said, "Greetings, senior
19:57:18brother Su." "Hello," Su Chongqing
19:57:21smiled slightly. Immediately, Li
19:57:23Sanankai asked, "You came all this way
19:57:25to see me? Is there something you need?"
19:57:27Su Chongqing took out a small storage
19:57:29bag containing spirit stones and handed
19:57:32it over personally. "This is the October
19:57:34dividend from the forging peak." Lienkai
19:57:36opened it and immediately raised an
19:57:38eyebrow. "So many?" Su Choning nodded.
19:57:4288 mid-grade spirit stones and 122 24
19:57:45low-grade spirit stones. How much? Liang
19:57:48Lean standing next to her widened her
19:57:50eyes. After becoming a formal disciple,
19:57:52because I am in the chi refining stage,
19:57:55I can receive one mid-grade spirit stone
19:57:57and 20 low-grade spirit stones as
19:57:59cultivation resources from the family
19:58:01every month. Leisan is in the foundation
19:58:03establishment stage and he can obtain at
19:58:05least three mid-grade spirit stones and
19:58:0850 low-grade spirit stones of
19:58:09cultivation resources every month. In
19:58:12addition, having not returned for
19:58:13several years, he accumulated dozens of
19:58:16mid-grade spirit stones and hundreds of
19:58:18low-grade spirit stones. Compared to
19:58:20what's right now, it's nothing. It
19:58:22sounds like this is only one month's
19:58:23bonus. If it's this much every month,
19:58:26wouldn't that amount to nearly a
19:58:27thousand mid-grade spirit stones a year?
19:58:29At this moment, Lie Xiang finally
19:58:31understood why her cousin was unwilling
19:58:33to go back and submit and why he didn't
19:58:35care about the cultivation resources the
19:58:37family provided. However, the most
19:58:39unexpected person was actually Li
19:58:41Sanankai. He knew he would receive
19:58:43dividends, but he never expected to earn
19:58:45so much in a month. My first thought was
19:58:47that Su Chongqing and the others had
19:58:49deliberately given too much. The last
19:58:51incident was indeed difficult to handle.
19:58:54If we were not careful, we would not
19:58:56only lose the business of casting peak,
19:58:58but we might even offend the people of
19:59:00Nongshin society. Seeing the other
19:59:02party's surprised and uncertain look, Su
19:59:04Chonqing quickly explained, "Although
19:59:06fewer people joined this month, the
19:59:08number of people buying ingredients and
19:59:10resources has increased several times
19:59:12over." Hearing this explanation, Lean
19:59:15reluctantly believed it. However, this
19:59:17dividend still exceeded his
19:59:19expectations. I thought that getting a
19:59:21dozen or so mid-grade spirit stones or a
19:59:23hundred or so low-grade spirit stones
19:59:25would be enough. The result was
19:59:27unexpected. There were so many in the
19:59:29end. It was truly beyond expectation and
19:59:32unbelievable. For a moment, the
19:59:34atmosphere became increasingly quiet.
19:59:36Neither Liang Kai nor Liang spoke, still
19:59:39immersed in shock. Seeing that no one
19:59:41spoke, Su Chongqing continued, "If
19:59:44there's nothing else, Junior brother
19:59:45will take his leave now. I still need to
19:59:47go to the weapon forging peak." Oh. Li
19:59:50Sanankai snapped out of his days and
19:59:51nodded. Okay, go ahead. Goodbye, senior
19:59:55brother. Goodbye, Junior Sister Lee. Su
19:59:57Chongqing waved his hand, then turned
19:59:59and walked out of the spirit field. Only
20:00:01after reaching the fence gate did he
20:00:03summon big leaf grass. With a whoosh, he
20:00:06soared into the air and flew towards the
20:00:08forging peak. Lie looked away, feeling
20:00:11her mouth dry. Cousin, no wonder you
20:00:14looked down on the cultivation resources
20:00:16the family gave you. You've already made
20:00:18your fortune. Leansai's lips twitched
20:00:20several times as he thought to himself.
20:00:22Get rich? I didn't even know it myself.
20:00:25Casting peak, Such Chongqing landed
20:00:27steadily on the large leafed grass. A
20:00:30quick glance revealed that no one was
20:00:32fighting on any of the nine arenas. Then
20:00:34it was discovered that many apprentices
20:00:36with the golden spirit route were
20:00:37actually repairing and reinforcing the
20:00:40structure. He didn't take it to heart
20:00:41and immediately headed towards the
20:00:43forging palace. If I remember correctly,
20:00:46Zhuang was in forge number 17, Ja. This
20:00:49time, most of the Golden Spirit Rude
20:00:51apprentices are probably outside
20:00:52repairing the arena. Therefore, no one
20:00:55stopped them, and they entered smoothly.
20:00:57Soon, they arrived at the entrance of
20:00:59forge number 17. It was very quiet
20:01:01inside without any clanging or banging
20:01:03sounds of forging. Is he not here? Such
20:01:06Chonqing tried knocking on the heavy
20:01:08door. Clap, clap, clap. As the sound
20:01:10rang out, it seemed as if something
20:01:12inside had been activated. And soon a
20:01:14series of bang bang bang sounds came
20:01:16from inside. Before long the door was
20:01:19opened. Zhuang grinned and said, "Here
20:01:21comes my brother." Su Chongqing nodded
20:01:24slightly. It was very quiet inside. I
20:01:26thought my sister had left. Zhuang
20:01:28explained, "There is a difference
20:01:30between forging and refining. This azure
20:01:33gourd of yours consumed a lot of my
20:01:34spiritual power and energy, so I'm
20:01:36taking a break." Su Chongqing then
20:01:38followed the other party into the house.
20:01:41Compared to 7 days ago, there was much
20:01:43less debris on the ground this time.
20:01:45Zhuang gestured for Su Chongqing to sit
20:01:47down, then walked toward a bronze square
20:01:49cauldron and quickly took out a small,
20:01:52exquisite turquoise gourd from it. Such
20:01:54Chanqing took it and saw that it was
20:01:56smaller than his own palm with several
20:01:58very clear and obvious spiritual
20:02:01patterns on it, extending from the mouth
20:02:03of the gourd all the way to the bottom.
20:02:05"It looks small, but it feels unusually
20:02:07heavy." Zhu Tong explained, "The
20:02:09refining process went very smoothly this
20:02:11time. Although it didn't become a top-de
20:02:14spiritual weapon, it still reached the
20:02:16highquality level, and the number of
20:02:17spiritual patterns on it is several more
20:02:19than that of ordinary spiritual
20:02:21weapons." Upon hearing this, Su
20:02:23Chongqing nodded slightly, then forced
20:02:25out a drop of blood and left a spiritual
20:02:28imprint. The next second, information
20:02:30about gourds appeared in my mind. Azure
20:02:32gourd, a highquality spiritual artifact.
20:02:35Effect one, interior space 20 cubic
20:02:38meters. Effect two, fresh produce can be
20:02:41kept fresh for a longer period of time.
20:02:43Effect three, carrying it on your person
20:02:46increases the efficiency of absorbing
20:02:48with elemental energy. Effect four, wood
20:02:50attribute items placed inside can be
20:02:52slowly repaired. Chapter 143, Storing
20:02:55Things with Spiritual Consciousness,
20:02:57Junior Brotherhan appears. 1/3 Chapter
20:03:00143 Storing Things with Spiritual
20:03:02Consciousness. Junior Brotherhan Appears
20:03:051/3 The Azure Gourd is a type of
20:03:07spiritual artifact. It is more advanced
20:03:10than a storage bag and is more popular
20:03:12in the foundation establishment and
20:03:13golden core stages. Although the quality
20:03:16is divided into three categories, low,
20:03:18high, and top grade, the price does not
20:03:21fluctuate much. Most of the time, the
20:03:23market price is around 300 mid-grade
20:03:25spirit stones, and at most, it does not
20:03:27exceed 400. The one in Su Chongqing's
20:03:30hand costs about 100 mid-grade spirit
20:03:32stones to cultivate and refine. Because
20:03:34it has many spirit patterns, it can be
20:03:37sold for about 330 mid-grade spirit
20:03:39stones. If you resell it, you can earn
20:03:42200 mid-grade spirit stones. Judging
20:03:44from the current situation, the returns
20:03:46are quite considerable. After all, this
20:03:48thing is a product of mutated spiritual
20:03:50plants and is quite rare. Such Chanqing
20:03:53thought to himself, "I still have 41 of
20:03:55these in my small storage bag. If I
20:03:57refine them all into storage artifacts
20:03:59and then sell them, I can earn at least
20:04:01nearly 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones."
20:04:04At this moment, Zhuang reminded him,
20:04:07"Brother, because spiritual artifacts
20:04:09have spiritual patterns, they can be
20:04:11inlaid with arrays and engraved with
20:04:13runes. If you need them, you can find an
20:04:15array master or a rune master to help
20:04:17you enhance them. Su Chongqing snapped
20:04:19out of his days and nodded hurriedly.
20:04:22Okay, thank you, sis. Zhu Tong grinned,
20:04:25reached out and patted his shoulder, but
20:04:27this time with less force, and then
20:04:29continued, "From now on, when you store
20:04:32or release anything, you only need to
20:04:34scan it with your spiritual sense and
20:04:36then move your mind to control it
20:04:37easily." Upon hearing this, Such Chaning
20:04:40immediately gave it a try. He took out a
20:04:43low-grade spirit stone from his small
20:04:44storage bag and placed it in his palm.
20:04:47With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he
20:04:49then sent a message to the azure gourd
20:04:51to put it away. In an instant, the
20:04:53lowgrade spirit stone in his hand
20:04:55vanished without a trace, as if it had
20:04:57never existed. Next, Such Chonqing used
20:05:00his spiritual sense to probe the inner
20:05:02space of the gourd and indeed found the
20:05:04missing low-grade spirit stone. At that
20:05:07moment, a thought struck me and it
20:05:09immediately reappeared in my palm as if
20:05:11it had never disappeared. Previously,
20:05:14storing or retrieving anything required
20:05:16opening a small storage bag, which was
20:05:18an extra step and time-conuming. Now,
20:05:20it's much more convenient. This wasn't
20:05:22the first time Zhu Tong had seen this
20:05:23situation. Many people experience a
20:05:26strong sense of novelty when they
20:05:27acquire new items and then try them out
20:05:29in various ways. Therefore, they didn't
20:05:32find it strange, nor did they care. Su
20:05:34Chongqing played for a while before
20:05:36stopping, then asked with a face full of
20:05:38curiosity. Sister, is it necessary to
20:05:41have a gold spiritual route to refine
20:05:43spiritual weapons? Well, Zhuang thought
20:05:46for a moment, then replied, not
20:05:48necessarily. There are quite a few
20:05:50apprentices with fire elemental roots
20:05:52who can control flames on the forging
20:05:54peak. They are experts in forging.
20:05:56However, if one is to refine spiritual
20:05:58weapons, it is best to have a metal
20:06:00spiritual route as this allows for a
20:06:02better understanding of metals and
20:06:04minerals. Why are most of the
20:06:05apprentices at casting peakorn with the
20:06:08golden spirit route? Only those with a
20:06:10metal spiritual route can perceive
20:06:12metals and minerals. While those with
20:06:14fire elemental roots are better at
20:06:15controlling temperature, their spiritual
20:06:17power is not sustained and they need to
20:06:20rest after a burst of power. Therefore,
20:06:22most cultivators who awaken their fire
20:06:24elemental route will join the alchemy
20:06:26pavilion. Compared to refining, they are
20:06:29more skilled at manipulating fire and
20:06:31have a more meticulous control over
20:06:32temperature. Such Chanqing suddenly
20:06:35understood after hearing this. In other
20:06:37words, the fire elemental root can be
20:06:39forged and refined. The only problem is
20:06:41that it cannot perceive metals and
20:06:43minerals. To put it bluntly, things
20:06:45refined from fire spirit roots should be
20:06:47inferior to those refined from gold
20:06:49spirit roots. Zhu Tong smiled and said,
20:06:52"Do you have any other questions,
20:06:53brother?" "No, I'm leaving." Such
20:06:55Chanqing shook his head. He was then
20:06:57escorted out by Zhu Tong. Not long
20:07:00after, he rode the large leaf grass back
20:07:02to his own spiritual field. Seeing that
20:07:04there was no difference between when
20:07:06they left and when they arrived, they
20:07:08felt relieved and entered the house.
20:07:10Next, they took out the small storage
20:07:12bags one by one. There are those who
20:07:14store spirit rice. There are stores that
20:07:16store spirit rice wine. There are also
20:07:18various miscellaneous items. Although
20:07:20they are all small storage bags, there
20:07:22are quite a lot of them. Now that we
20:07:24have the Azure Gourd, a more advanced
20:07:26storage artifact, these are naturally no
20:07:28longer needed. Next, he put all the
20:07:30necessary items such as everyday magical
20:07:33tools like sickles and rakes or items
20:07:35for trading like spiritual rice, pills,
20:07:38and spiritual rice wine into the Azure
20:07:40Gourd. With 20 cubic meters of space,
20:07:43there's more than enough room to store
20:07:44all these things. No matter how much
20:07:46stuff there is, it can be instantly
20:07:48stored away with a sweep of spiritual
20:07:50sense, which is extremely convenient.
20:07:53However, he had not forgotten Zhuang's
20:07:55earlier reminder. I need to find an
20:07:57opportunity to get Han Xen, the female
20:07:59array master, to help me set up an
20:08:01array. As for the runes, Binger's father
20:08:04might need to help. Time flew by, and it
20:08:06was the next day morning. Such Chanqing
20:08:09as always used the Azure lotus domain to
20:08:12accelerate the growth of the spiritual
20:08:13plants in the first acre of spiritual
20:08:15field. Suddenly the emerald gourd
20:08:18released an image that projected into
20:08:20his mind. A communication talisman was
20:08:22vibrating slightly and emitting a faint
20:08:24glow. Su Chongqing remembered that this
20:08:27seemed to be Han Su<unk>s communication
20:08:28symbol. Therefore, with a thought, it
20:08:31immediately appeared in his hand, and
20:08:33then a trace of what elemental power was
20:08:35infused into it. Hello, senior brother
20:08:38Sue. I am Hans Su. You've been missing
20:08:40for almost 10 days, haven't you? I'm
20:08:42sorry. I've been cultivating on the 38th
20:08:44level of the Earth's veins for the past
20:08:46period of time. So, you've come out?
20:08:49Yes, I'm out. Can we meet? You want to
20:08:51see me for something? There's something
20:08:53I need to discuss in person. Soon, their
20:08:55communication was lost. Such Chanqing
20:08:58put Han Su<unk>s communication talisman
20:09:00into the green gourd, then revealed a
20:09:02thoughtful expression. At that time, the
20:09:0538th layer of the Earth's veins was
20:09:07filled with a large amount of
20:09:08attributeless spiritual energy. There
20:09:10was even a million pounds of yellow gas.
20:09:12It's been so long since we last met.
20:09:15Barring any unforeseen circumstances,
20:09:17Han Su strength should have improved.
20:09:20Otherwise, they wouldn't have contacted
20:09:21me as soon as they came out. About an
20:09:24hour later, Han Su, who had not been
20:09:26seen for a long time, finally appeared.
20:09:29Compared to before, this kid's skin is
20:09:31even more yellow. But it's not a waxy
20:09:33yellow. It's a crystallin yellow. It was
20:09:35as if a layer of yellow sheen was
20:09:37flowing over his body. Even their height
20:09:39and body shape have changed
20:09:41considerably. He was as robust as a
20:09:43bull. Han Su stepped forward and bowed.
20:09:46Seen your brother. Such Chongqing was
20:09:48taken aback. What do you mean by that?
20:09:50Han Su raised his head, his eyes filled
20:09:52with tears, and said with great emotion.
20:09:55If it weren't for your reminder, I
20:09:56wouldn't have been able to raise my
20:09:58cultivation level to the peak of chi
20:10:00refining this time. Therefore, you are
20:10:02my benefactor. Su Chongqing nodded
20:10:04slightly, quite pleased, and said, "It's
20:10:07good that there's been a gain." Han Su
20:10:09then described the situation at that
20:10:11time. At that time, only disciples with
20:10:13Earth spirit roots were cultivating on
20:10:15the 38 layers of the Earth's veins.
20:10:17Capable array masters approached the
20:10:19emanating yellow aura. Those with weaker
20:10:22abilities, such as Han Su, who is a body
20:10:24transformation cultivator, can only
20:10:26absorb attribute less spiritual energy.
20:10:29Fortunately, Han Su had been eating and
20:10:31drinking top grade spirit rice and
20:10:33spirit rice wine. This is the result of
20:10:35long-term accumulation coupled with the
20:10:38absorption of a massive amount of
20:10:39attributeless spiritual energy this
20:10:42time. Therefore, he raised his
20:10:43cultivation level from the late stage
20:10:45ofqi refining to the perfect stage ofqi
20:10:48refining in one fell swoop. And then it
20:10:50got stuck. Han Su couldn't help but ask,
20:10:53"Senior brother, what should we do?" Su
20:10:55Chongqing smiled slightly. When I broke
20:10:57through to the foundation establishment
20:10:59stage, I didn't get stuck at theQi
20:11:01refining perfection stage. So, I don't
20:11:03know much about it. Chapter 144. Digging
20:11:06the basement. The price of foundation
20:11:08building pills 2/3. Chapter 144. Digging
20:11:11the basement. The price of foundation
20:11:13building pills 2/3. What? Senior
20:11:16brother, you've reached the foundation
20:11:18establishment stage. When did this
20:11:20happen? At this moment, Han Su felt his
20:11:22head buzzing. It's only been a few days
20:11:24since I last saw them and they've
20:11:26already reached the foundation
20:11:27establishment stage. Moreover, he did
20:11:30not get stuck at the chi refining
20:11:31perfection stage and broke through very
20:11:34smoothly. It's true what they say.
20:11:36Comparisons are odious. Su Chongqing
20:11:38retorted, "Haven't<unk> you heard?" Han
20:11:40Su shook his head, looking bewildered,
20:11:42and said, "Where would I have heard
20:11:44that?" Su Chongqing chuckled and said,
20:11:47"I broke through at the 38th level of
20:11:49the earth veins." Han Su was stunned,
20:11:51then thought carefully and finally
20:11:53realized. I remember now when we first
20:11:56arrived there, there were indeed people
20:11:58discussing that someone with a wood
20:11:59spirit route had successfully
20:12:01established their foundation. I didn't
20:12:03expect that they were talking about you,
20:12:05senior brother. Su Chonqing nodded
20:12:07slightly. That's right, you're talking
20:12:09about me. Han Su said somewhat
20:12:11awkwardly. This I I didn't prepare a
20:12:14gift either. Such Chonqing didn't seem
20:12:16to care much, waving his hand and
20:12:18saying, "Your breakthrough is the
20:12:20greatest gift you could give me." Upon
20:12:22hearing this, Han Su<unk>s eyes filled
20:12:24with tears, and he choked with emotion.
20:12:26If it weren't for Senior Brother Su's
20:12:28timely reminder, I wouldn't have been
20:12:30able to break through this time.
20:12:32Although yellow gas emerges from the
20:12:33Earth's veins, this happens only once in
20:12:36a while. However, it doesn't always
20:12:38cause the spirit stone vein to collapse
20:12:40and release a tributeless spiritual
20:12:43energy. To some extent, this is a unique
20:12:45opportunity or serendipitous encounter
20:12:47for those with an earth elemental spirit
20:12:49route. Unfortunately, Hanu only managed
20:12:52to grasp the attributeless spiritual
20:12:54energy this time without bearing a trace
20:12:57of yellow energy. Otherwise, they could
20:12:59take this opportunity to become core
20:13:01disciples and cultivate more advanced
20:13:03spells. At this moment, Hanu noticed
20:13:05that there was an extra acre of spirit
20:13:07field on the other side and couldn't
20:13:09help but regret. That's right. When the
20:13:12spirit farmer breaks through to the
20:13:13early stage of foundation establishment,
20:13:15an extra acre of grade 2 spirit field
20:13:18will be added. I actually missed
20:13:19loosening the soil. Seeing the other
20:13:21party's guilty expression, Su Chongqing
20:13:24comforted him. So, what if you missed
20:13:25it? It's not a big deal. In the early
20:13:28stages of land reclamation, there were
20:13:30disciples with earth spirit roots who
20:13:32infused the soil with earth energy while
20:13:34loosening it. Han Su still felt bad
20:13:36about it. But I should at least do
20:13:38something for you, shouldn't I? Su
20:13:40Chonqing pondered and said, "In that
20:13:42case, I'm planning to build a basement
20:13:44to store things. If you have a lot of
20:13:46energy to spare, you can do it." Han
20:13:48Su<unk>s eyes lit up. "Okay, leave it to
20:13:51me." After reaching the peak ofQi
20:13:53refining, his control over Earth
20:13:55elemental power became even more
20:13:57refined. Therefore, it can handle
20:13:59everything from loosening soil and
20:14:01building houses to digging basement.
20:14:03Next, the two began to plan the depth
20:14:05and scope of the basement. In fact, Such
20:14:08Chongqing had already thought it
20:14:09through, so he made the arrangements
20:14:11very quickly. Open an entrance to the
20:14:13basement right where the kitchen is
20:14:14located. In this way, all the
20:14:16ingredients for brewing alcohol can be
20:14:18put into it. Bang! Bang! Bang! As the
20:14:21ground continued to shake, the basement
20:14:23gradually took shape. The feeasants, who
20:14:26were lying in their nest, were so
20:14:27frightened by the noise that they
20:14:29immediately ran out and didn't dare to
20:14:31stay near the wooden house. They quickly
20:14:33ran to the edge of the field. Looking at
20:14:35the startled dog Wong Wong and the
20:14:37startled Guinea Fowl, Su Chonqing
20:14:39grinned wickedly, seemingly gloating.
20:14:42Time quickly came to noon. Thanks to Han
20:14:44Su<unk>s efforts, the basement began to
20:14:46take shape. The height from the kitchen
20:14:48floor to the bottom of the basement is
20:14:49about 3 m, and the overall space is a 7
20:14:52m by 7 m square, which is enough to
20:14:55store things. While Han Su was resting,
20:14:57Such Chanqing started making lunch.
20:14:59Considering that the disciples with
20:15:01earth spirit roots eat a lot, a large
20:15:03pot of top grade spirit rice was
20:15:05specially steamed. The dishes were all
20:15:08homestyle cooking. A plate of top
20:15:10quality chili stir fried with spirit
20:15:12beast meat. A pot of top quality winter
20:15:14melon and pork rib soup. Add a plate of
20:15:16premium chili fried pearl eggs. This was
20:15:19Han Su's first time eating Sue
20:15:20Chongqing<unk>s cooking and he was very
20:15:22much looking forward to it. Even though
20:15:24I haven't eaten it yet, just looking at
20:15:26it makes my mouth water. The dish made
20:15:28with premium chili peppers and
20:15:30stir-fried spirit beast meat is glossy
20:15:32and reddish brown with a pungent aroma.
20:15:35This premium winter melon and pork rib
20:15:37soup features a clear broth, translucent
20:15:39winter melon flesh, and tender pork
20:15:41ribs. Premium chili pepper stir fried
20:15:44with pearl eggs. The egg yolks are
20:15:45fluffy and the chilies are bright red.
20:15:48After setting down the bowls and
20:15:49chopsticks, Su Chonqing called out,
20:15:51"Let's eat." Hanu didn't pick up his
20:15:53chopsticks immediately. Instead, he
20:15:56waited until Su Chongqing picked up a
20:15:58piece of slightly brown spirit beast
20:16:00meat and put it in his bowl before he
20:16:02began to eat. He liked to eat meat, so
20:16:04he chose to stir fry spirit beast meat.
20:16:06He picked up a piece, put it in his
20:16:08mouth, chewed it a few times, and then
20:16:10his eyes widened. Although the outer
20:16:12layer of the spirit beast meat is
20:16:14slightly crispy, the inside is firm and
20:16:16chewy, and the spicy flavor has a strong
20:16:19aftertaste. After only a few bites,
20:16:21you'll start to sizzle. At this moment,
20:16:24Su Chongqing said, "Junior brother Han,
20:16:26I suddenly remembered something." Hansu
20:16:29scooped up a spoonful of pork rib soup
20:16:30to relieve the spiciness, then asked,
20:16:33"What?" Su Chongqing continued, "I've
20:16:35heard from others that if you're stuck
20:16:36at the chi refining perfection stage,
20:16:39you need a foundation establishment pill
20:16:41to break through." He then remembered
20:16:42that Hua Lao and Jeang Su had mentioned
20:16:45it before. However, foundation
20:16:47establishment pills are extremely rare
20:16:49and expensive, making them difficult for
20:16:51ordinary disciples to obtain. Moreover,
20:16:54different attributes require different
20:16:55foundation building pills. For example,
20:16:58if you have an earth spirit route, you
20:16:59need to add the rare earth lotus to the
20:17:01foundation building pill as the main
20:17:03ingredient. If I remember correctly, one
20:17:06of these plants costs 80 mg-grade spirit
20:17:08stones. Of course, that was the previous
20:17:10price. As the official disciple
20:17:12competition draws ever closer, the
20:17:15prices of all sorts of things are
20:17:16skyrocketing. Su Chongqing put down his
20:17:19chopsticks, found the spirit mirror that
20:17:21Lee Sanghai had given him, and then
20:17:23infused it with what elemental power.
20:17:25Soon, the prices of various spiritual
20:17:27plants appeared. Seeing this, Han Su
20:17:30also put down his chopsticks and stepped
20:17:32forward with a curious expression. Su
20:17:34Chongqing quickly located the Earth
20:17:36Lotus and immediately checked today's
20:17:38transaction price. When they saw that
20:17:40one flower required 100 mid-grade spirit
20:17:43stones, both of them were stunned. If a
20:17:45single earth lotus costs so many spirit
20:17:47stones, you can imagine how expensive
20:17:49foundation establishment pills are.
20:17:52However, this spiritual mirror can only
20:17:54display the price of spiritual plants.
20:17:56It cannot display the price of elixirs
20:17:58or similar items. This function was
20:18:00originally present, but it was canled
20:18:02due to a collective protest from the
20:18:04alchemists of the Alchemy Alliance. Han
20:18:07Su was dumbfounded. 100 mid-grade spirit
20:18:09stones would take me at least 5 years of
20:18:12mining to collect unless I work
20:18:13tirelessly to loosen the soil for
20:18:15others, which would be faster. Such
20:18:18Chongqing thought for a moment, put away
20:18:20the spirit mirror, and then took out by
20:18:22Linger's communication talisman. As the
20:18:24wood elemental power was injected, the
20:18:26connection was quickly established.
20:18:28Hello, I am Su Chonqing. It's lunchtime.
20:18:31Are you going to treat me to lunch? If
20:18:33I'm not looking for you, is your sister
20:18:35home? Uh, why do you want to see my
20:18:37sister? I have something I'd like to ask
20:18:39you. All right. You could tell that
20:18:41Binger was a little disappointed, but
20:18:43she didn't get angry. Instead, she
20:18:46obediently handed the communication
20:18:47talisman to her sister. Such Chanqing is
20:18:50looking for me. Bhuer was quite
20:18:52surprised. Her first reaction was that
20:18:54the other party had messed up and failed
20:18:56to passing test. Otherwise, why would
20:18:59they take the initiative to contact me
20:19:00at this time? Nine times out of 10, they
20:19:03are seeking help in this regard. After
20:19:05confirming the change of personnel, Su
20:19:07Chongqing went straight to the point
20:19:09without any pleasantries. What is the
20:19:11current price of a foundation
20:19:12establishment pill with earth spirit
20:19:14root as its main ingredient, earth
20:19:16lotus? Upon hearing that it had nothing
20:19:18to do with senior sister, Bhuer breathed
20:19:21a sigh of relief, then retorted
20:19:23irritably. You've already reached the
20:19:25foundation establishment stage. Why are
20:19:27you asking this? And it's a foundation
20:19:29establishment pill exclusive to Earth's
20:19:31spiritual roots. Su Chongqing glanced at
20:19:34the anxious Hans Su beside him and
20:19:36replied, "I asked for a friend." Bhuer
20:19:39thought for a moment and said, "In the
20:19:41current pill market, foundation
20:19:42establishment pills for water, wood, and
20:19:45fire spiritual roots are relatively
20:19:47cheap, costing around 200 mid-grade
20:19:49spirit stones. However, those for metal
20:19:52and earth spiritual roots are much more
20:19:54expensive, costing at least 300
20:19:56mid-grade spirit stones." Chapter 145.
20:19:59Harvesting Moongrass. Hanxen comes to
20:20:02find us. 3/3. Chapter 145. Harvesting
20:20:05Moon Grass. Hanxen comes to find us.
20:20:083/3. So expensive. Su Chongqing and Han
20:20:11Su exchanged a glance, both seeing the
20:20:13shock in each other's eyes. I knew
20:20:15foundation building pills would be
20:20:17expensive, but I didn't expect them to
20:20:18be this expensive. It should be noted
20:20:20that Su Chongqing<unk>s emerald gourd,
20:20:23which he had refined into a spiritual
20:20:24artifact, only sold for a little over
20:20:27300 mid-grade spirit stones. In other
20:20:30words, a foundation establishment pill
20:20:32is equivalent to a spiritual artifact,
20:20:34which is truly incredible. Han Su
20:20:36slumped back into his chair and plopped
20:20:38down. Looks like I can only mine for a
20:20:40few more years. Seeing this, Su Chonqing
20:20:44immediately turned to the other side and
20:20:45asked, "Old B, do you have any channels
20:20:48to buy cheaper Earth Spirit Root
20:20:49Foundation establishment pills?" Upon
20:20:51hearing the word old, Baiju rolled her
20:20:54eyes. First of all, I'm not old.
20:20:56Secondly, even if there were a channel,
20:20:58it would never be cheaper than 300
20:21:00mid-grade spirit stones. That's
20:21:02determined by market conditions. It's
20:21:04like Nonshim deliberately raising the
20:21:06price of spiritual plants. Yushua
20:21:09Pavilion deliberately raised the price
20:21:11of the talisman. The Alchemy Pavilion
20:21:13also maintains strict control over
20:21:15foundation establishment pills, which is
20:21:17why their prices remain high. Under
20:21:19normal circumstances, it can be bought
20:21:21for 100 to 200 mid-grade spirit stones.
20:21:24But now is a special period and everyone
20:21:26wants to take advantage of the formal
20:21:28disciple competition to make a fortune
20:21:30and earn enough spirit stones to
20:21:32exchange for resources. Su Chongqing
20:21:34thought for a moment and then asked, "If
20:21:36I give you a lotus from the earth, can
20:21:38you give me a discount?" Baiju quickly
20:21:41replied, "If you can really provide it,
20:21:43I can only charge a processing fee of
20:21:45100 mid-grade spirit stones, but after
20:21:48it is refined, you can only get one
20:21:50foundation establishment pill, and the
20:21:52rest will all belong to me." Su
20:21:54Chongqing was stunned for a long time
20:21:55upon hearing this and couldn't help but
20:21:57sigh. Are all alchemists like this?
20:22:00Baihuer stated matterof factly. Why
20:22:02should I help you if there aren't enough
20:22:04benefits to be gained? At this moment,
20:22:06Han Su raised his head and said in a
20:22:08slightly horse voice, "Senior brother,
20:22:11forget it. It's<unk> impossible for me
20:22:12to break through so easily right now."
20:22:15Upon hearing this, Such Chaning had no
20:22:17choice but to put down the communication
20:22:19talisman and end the call. He truly
20:22:21hadn't expected that a foundation
20:22:23establishment pill would be so expensive
20:22:25these days, especially for the two
20:22:27spiritual roots of metal and earth. The
20:22:29price exceeds 300 mid-grade spirit
20:22:31stones, which feels no different from
20:22:33robbery. After that, Han Su ate in
20:22:36silence and did not mention the
20:22:37foundation establishment matter again.
20:22:40After finishing their meal, they didn't
20:22:41rest, but continued digging the basement
20:22:44as if venting their frustration. A
20:22:46series of banging sounds rang out,
20:22:48shaking the entire wooden house. Wong
20:22:50Wong and the Guinea Fowl ran far away,
20:22:53not daring to approach at all. Su
20:22:55Chongqing saw this but made no promises.
20:22:58After all, to outsiders, he is a
20:22:59foundation establishment stage spiritual
20:23:01farmer and does not know how to refine
20:23:03pills. Moreover, to refine the
20:23:06foundation establishment pill, one must
20:23:08first obtain the formula and then
20:23:10collect the medicinal materials. Earth
20:23:12emerging lotuses, especially those that
20:23:14grow in the earth's veins, are rare and
20:23:16expensive. These things aren't something
20:23:18you can just get your hands on. When
20:23:20it's Shun Shir, which is 300 p.m. Having
20:23:22finished dealing with the basement, Han
20:23:24Su turned and left. However, Su
20:23:27Chongqing wanted to make the other
20:23:28person feel better. In the name of
20:23:30payment, they gave him 20 caddies of top
20:23:32grade spirit rice and five caddies of
20:23:34top grade spirit rice wine. After Han Su
20:23:37walked away, he immediately went to the
20:23:39kitchen. The three enormous wine barrels
20:23:41containing highquality spirit rice wine,
20:23:43premium spirit rice wine, and premium
20:23:46yellow rice wine were moved out of the
20:23:47gourd space and placed in the cold, damp
20:23:50basement. As a result, the kitchen
20:23:52became spacious again, no longer as
20:23:54cramped as before. He then returned to
20:23:56the spirit field and released the Azure
20:23:59Lotus Domain again. In any case, one's
20:24:01own rhythm must not be affected. Seven
20:24:04days have passed in the blink of an eye.
20:24:06During this time, no one came to disturb
20:24:08them. The bright moon grass in the
20:24:10second acre of grade 2 spirit field has
20:24:12already grown to 7 in tall. When evening
20:24:15came, Su Chongqing came to the edge of
20:24:17the field with a sickle in his hand. The
20:24:19densely packed moon grass, each stock
20:24:22bent over, is shaped like a crescent
20:24:24moon. Although they no longer absorb
20:24:26moonlight, they still emit a silvery
20:24:28white glow. They look like miniature
20:24:30versions of the moon with a very
20:24:32beautiful shape. Immediately, Su
20:24:34Chongqing released his spiritual sense,
20:24:36enveloping the entire spiritual field.
20:24:39Moonong grass, mature, abundant
20:24:41spiritual energy. No damage. Today's
20:24:44best 1,000 pieces. First of all, there
20:24:48are no problems. And secondly, the
20:24:50quantity is just right. Seeing this, he
20:24:52no longer hesitated and decisively swung
20:24:55the sickle in his hand. Harvesting one
20:24:57premium moon grass increases lifespan by
20:25:007 days. Harvest 500 premium moonongrass
20:25:03stocks, lifespan increased by 3,500
20:25:06days. Harvest 1,000 premium moonongrass
20:25:09roots, lifespan increased by 700 days.
20:25:12Current remaining lifespan 730 years. By
20:25:16the time I finished, it was already
20:25:17midnight. Since he wasn't sleepy anyway,
20:25:20Su Chonqing simply walked to the first
20:25:22acre of spirit field, summoned the
20:25:24companion green lotus again, released
20:25:27the green lotus domain, and began to
20:25:29accelerate its ripening. once more. It
20:25:31wasn't until almost dawn that the wood
20:25:33elemental power in his Danteon was
20:25:35completely exhausted. Slightly tired, he
20:25:38walked towards the wooden house to rest.
20:25:40I slept until noon and woke up to find
20:25:42Wong Wong and Pearl Chicken, who hadn't
20:25:45eaten breakfast or lunch, sitting by the
20:25:47bed with their four eyes looking on me
20:25:48longingly. He looked so eager he was
20:25:51practically about to speak. "Sorry," Su
20:25:53Chongqing smiled, then got out of bed
20:25:55and began preparing lunch. Although he
20:25:58harvested all the moon grass, he did not
20:26:00rush to send it to Yukai. After all, we
20:26:03had agreed on a one-mon time frame with
20:26:05the other party, sending it over after
20:26:07only half a month could easily arouse
20:26:09suspicion. No matter how talented a
20:26:11spirit farmer is, it's impossible to
20:26:13grow top grade spirit plants while
20:26:15simultaneously having their growth rate.
20:26:17This is simply not something a
20:26:18foundation establishment stage
20:26:19cultivator could do. While waiting for
20:26:21dinner, the green gourd projected an
20:26:23image again. Another communication
20:26:25talisman vibrated and emitted a faint
20:26:28light. If Su Chongqing remembers
20:26:30correctly, this photo should belong to
20:26:32Han Xion. Sure enough, the familiar
20:26:34hiccup sound from the other party came
20:26:36through immediately after the call
20:26:38connected. Hiccup little Sue. Sister
20:26:40Han, have you detected the yellow aura?
20:26:42I absorbed a trace, so I rested for a
20:26:44few days. So, is there something you
20:26:47need from me now? Little Sue, this
20:26:49little bit of wine isn't enough to repay
20:26:51your old lady. Just tell me how much
20:26:54more do you want. At least 50 caddies of
20:26:56top grade spirit rice wine and 20
20:26:58caddies of the new yellow rice wine. The
20:27:01top grade spirit rice wine is no
20:27:02problem. But the yellow rice wine is at
20:27:05most two gene. What? Only this much.
20:27:08Sister, the production is already low.
20:27:10It's not even enough for myself. In the
20:27:13end, Hanxen gave in. There was no way
20:27:15around it. The drinks they' gotten from
20:27:17Su Chonqing had already been completely
20:27:19consumed. What we drink nowadays is
20:27:21actually brewed by others. Although it
20:27:23tastes good, it is not as effective as
20:27:25premium lingi wine and new yellow rice
20:27:28wine. This is why she took the
20:27:29initiative to contact them after
20:27:31absorbing the yellow energy. Soon, the
20:27:33two agreed on a time to meet. This
20:27:35afternoon, Hanxen will come all the way
20:27:38from the lay line to pick up the drinks.
20:27:40Su Chongqing held the Azure gourd he
20:27:42carried with him in his hand, chuckling.
20:27:44When she arrives, she can help me see
20:27:46what kind of formation can be inlaid in
20:27:48this gourd. Chapter 146. Choosing one of
20:27:51four formations. The final decision.
20:27:54Chapter 146. Choosing one of four
20:27:56formations. The final decision. In the
20:27:58afternoon, a loud bang was heard
20:28:00outside. It was so violent that the
20:28:03ground shook. Su Chongqing knew what had
20:28:05happened without even having to guess
20:28:07because it wasn't the first time. So, he
20:28:09wasn't surprised. Sure enough, when he
20:28:11came outside, he saw a dark-colored
20:28:13shuttle leaning precariously on the edge
20:28:15of the field with a large crater on the
20:28:17other side. Han Xen, whom I hadn't seen
20:28:20for half a month, jumped down from
20:28:22above, wobbling. Su Chanqing frowned and
20:28:25reminded him. You landed at the wrong
20:28:27spot this time. You were too close to
20:28:29the spirit field. Hanexian chuckled. I
20:28:32got a little tipsy this time and didn't
20:28:33keep my distance properly. Su Chongqing
20:28:36said in a warning tone, "If you dare to
20:28:38damage my spiritual field, you won't be
20:28:40able to drink any more wine." Han Xen
20:28:43was stunned, then immediately assured
20:28:45him, "Don't worry. I'll aim for the
20:28:47cabin where you sleep next time. You su
20:28:50Chongqing was so angry that he couldn't
20:28:52speak. Han Xen grinned and swayed
20:28:54forward. Where's my wine? When Su
20:28:56Chongqing saw her come in front of him,
20:28:58he did not take out any wine, but
20:29:00instead took out a green gourd. Han
20:29:02Xen<unk>s eyes lit up and she asked
20:29:04excitedly, "Is this a new tool for
20:29:07storing alcoholic beverages?" Su
20:29:09Chongqing replied, "Yes and no." Han Xen
20:29:12was taken aback and asked in confusion,
20:29:14"What do you mean?" Su Chongqing
20:29:16explained, "This is my new storage item
20:29:18called the Azure Gourd. Of course, it
20:29:21can indeed be used to store wine and
20:29:22beverages." Han Xian thought about it
20:29:25carefully and realized that there was
20:29:26indeed a storage item called the Azure
20:29:28Gourd. This thing seems to be very
20:29:30popular among foundation establishment
20:29:32and golden core cultivators, but it's
20:29:34not cheap either. The finished product
20:29:36seems to require two to 300 mid-grade
20:29:39spirit stones. Finding a blacksmith to
20:29:41forge, it would cost anywhere from
20:29:43dozens to hundreds of mid-grade spirit
20:29:45stones. The person before me is a
20:29:47foundation establishment stage spiritual
20:29:49farmer. He must have made quite a bit of
20:29:51money. Therefore, it was not surprising
20:29:53that she possessed a relatively
20:29:54high-grade turquoise gourd. Su Chan
20:29:57continued, "This gourd of mine is a
20:29:59highquality spiritual artifact with
20:30:01several spiritual runes on it. I'd like
20:30:03to ask you how many sets of formations
20:30:05can be enlaid with it." Han Xian stepped
20:30:08forward, snatched it, and examined the
20:30:10spiritual patterns on it while fiddling
20:30:12with it in her hand. At first glance,
20:30:15the color appears emerald green, but it
20:30:17also has a bluish sheen. It has a warm,
20:30:20smooth texture like jade and feels very
20:30:22soft to the touch. Several clear
20:30:24spiritual patterns extend from the mouth
20:30:26of the gourd all the way to the bottom.
20:30:29Although she was drunk, her vision was a
20:30:31bit blurry and double, but in terms of
20:30:33formations, there are absolutely no
20:30:35problems. After reflecting on it, I had
20:30:37a general idea of what was going on. Su
20:30:40Chongqing looked on with curiosity. How
20:30:42was it? Han Xen casually tossed the
20:30:44small gourd back and said, "The number
20:30:46of spirit patterns on it is enough to
20:30:48inlay two sets of low-level formations
20:30:51or one set of highle formations." Such
20:30:54Chan was surprised, then asked, "Do you
20:30:56have any recommendations?" Hanxen didn't
20:30:59say anything, but instead stretched out
20:31:01her hand as if she wouldn't talk unless
20:31:03she was given a drink. Left with no
20:31:05other choice, Su Chongqing could only
20:31:08send over the 50 caddies of top grade
20:31:10spirit rice wine that he had prepared in
20:31:12advance. Han Xian<unk>s eyes widened.
20:31:14Where's the new yellow rice wine? Su
20:31:16Chongqing waved his hand. Yellow millet
20:31:19wine is easy to get drunk on. Tell me
20:31:21about the formation first and then you
20:31:23can drink it. Hanxen thought it made
20:31:25sense. The first time I drank it, I was
20:31:27indeed drunk and slept until the early
20:31:29hours of the morning. So she stopped
20:31:31asking for more and instead took a big
20:31:33gulp of the finest spirit rice wine. He
20:31:35exclaimed, "This is exactly the taste."
20:31:38And then began to talk about formations.
20:31:40"If you choose two low-level formations,
20:31:42prioritize one offensive formation and
20:31:45one defensive formation or perhaps a
20:31:47defensive formation and a support
20:31:49formation. An attack formation is easy
20:31:51to understand. It's simply launching an
20:31:53attack. As the name suggests, defensive
20:31:56formations serve a defensive purpose.
20:31:58Auxiliary formations have many wonderful
20:32:00uses, such as improving cultivation
20:32:02efficiency and enhancing recovery speed.
20:32:05In terms of price, offensive and
20:32:07defensive formations are relatively
20:32:08inexpensive. Auxiliary formations are
20:32:11quite expensive, generally costing
20:32:13several dozen spirit stones more. After
20:32:15listening, Su Chongqing said
20:32:17thoughtfully, "As a spirit farmer, I
20:32:19basically stay in the spirit fields, so
20:32:22defensive and auxiliary formations are
20:32:24undoubtedly the best choice." Han Exon
20:32:26nodded slightly. Most spirit farmers are
20:32:29configured this way. Only cultivators
20:32:31who go out to explore and slay demons
20:32:33will choose to combine attack and
20:32:34defense or attack and support. Su
20:32:37Chonqing then asked, "What about
20:32:39advanced formations?" Han Xian shrugged,
20:32:42"Choose one of the three. Low-level
20:32:44formations consume fewer spirit runes,
20:32:46so you can have two sets. Advanced
20:32:48formations consume more spirit runes, so
20:32:51only one set can be used. It all depends
20:32:53on how you choose to weigh the pros and
20:32:55cons. Su Chongqing was undecided, so he
20:32:58thought for a moment and said, "You give
20:33:00me a price first." Han Xian leisurely
20:33:02took a sip of the top grade spirit rice
20:33:04wine before saying, "If it's a low-level
20:33:06formation that combines attack and
20:33:08defense, it will cost a total of 75
20:33:11mid-grade spirit stones. If it is a
20:33:13low-level formation that combines attack
20:33:15and support, it will cost 98 mid-grade
20:33:18spirit stones. As for low-level
20:33:20formations that combine defense and
20:33:22support, they cost approximately 110
20:33:24mid-grade spirit stones. Hi, Such
20:33:27Chongqing asked curiously. Han Xen
20:33:30continued, "An advanced attack formation
20:33:32costs 150 mid-grade spirit stones. A
20:33:35highle defensive formation costs 160
20:33:38mid-grade spirit stones. A highle
20:33:40auxiliary formation costs 180 mid-grade
20:33:44spirit stones. It's more than just
20:33:45expensive." After listening, Su
20:33:48Chongqing weighed the pros and cons in
20:33:50his mind. Seeing that the other person
20:33:51was deep in thought, Han Xen did not
20:33:54urge him. Instead, she walked to the
20:33:56door of the wooden house, pulled the
20:33:58wooden chair next to her, and sat down.
20:34:00Sipping the sweet Lingi wine, they
20:34:02waited patiently. No matter which
20:34:04formation Su Choning chooses, she will
20:34:06definitely profit. Alchemists, array
20:34:09masters, talisman masters, and
20:34:11blacksmiths, these are all highly
20:34:13profitable professions. For any
20:34:15cultivator, there are four indispensable
20:34:17skills. Do you need a spirit gathering
20:34:19array when cultivating? Do you need a
20:34:21breakthrough pill to break through to a
20:34:23higher realm? You'll need a talisman
20:34:25when you're on an adventure. Right?
20:34:27You'll need to use spiritual weapons
20:34:29during battle. Right? These are all of
20:34:32great importance. So, no matter how
20:34:33expensive they are, cultivators will
20:34:35hold their noses and buy them. Finally,
20:34:38after a long silence, Su Chongqing spoke
20:34:40up. I choose the advanced formation. He
20:34:43eliminated the low-level formations.
20:34:45Although two sets can be inlaid, they
20:34:47are inferior to advanced formations in
20:34:49all aspects. Therefore, you can only
20:34:52choose one of the three. Advanced
20:34:53attack, advanced defense, or advanced
20:34:56support. Han Xian's lips curled
20:34:58slightly. I have six sets of advanced
20:35:00wooded tribute formations for you to
20:35:02choose from. Two attack formations, two
20:35:04defense formations, and two support
20:35:06formations. Attack formation, poison ivy
20:35:09entanglement, releases paralyzing toxin.
20:35:12Wooden spike projectile formation,
20:35:14instant sharp wooden spikes. Defensive
20:35:17formation, aoki protective formation
20:35:19automatically blocks attacks. Thorn
20:35:21counterattack formation reflects a
20:35:23portion of the damage. Auxiliary
20:35:25formations, spirit gathering wood array
20:35:28accelerates spiritual energy absorption.
20:35:31Concealing vitality array hides one's
20:35:33own aura. On Such Choning's side, for
20:35:36offense, it has the wood spirit
20:35:38entanglement technique accompanied by a
20:35:40green lotus. For defense, there are
20:35:42ironwood armor technique and companion
20:35:44green lotus. In terms of support, the
20:35:47Azure lotus creation technique can
20:35:49conceal one's strength, realm, aura, and
20:35:52physical form. As for absorbing
20:35:54spiritual energy, top grade spirit rice
20:35:56wine, top grade yellow rice wine, and
20:35:58maxle cultivation techniques can all
20:36:00achieve it. Currently only its attack
20:36:03and defense aspects are relatively weak.
20:36:05Han Xian asked with a smile. Have you
20:36:08made a decision? Su Chanqing took a deep
20:36:10breath and said seriously, I choose.
20:36:13Chapter 147. After the array was inlaid,
20:36:16the defensive power was decent. Chapter
20:36:19147. The array is complete and the
20:36:21defensive capabilities are decent. Azure
20:36:23wood protective array. This advanced
20:36:25formation can automatically release a
20:36:27thick layer of green wood to block all
20:36:29attacks. In fact, Such Chanqing almost
20:36:32chose the offensive wooden spike flying
20:36:34formation or the defensive thorn
20:36:36counterattack formation. The wooden
20:36:38spike projectile formation can instantly
20:36:40launch sharp wooden spikes which can
20:36:42then be ignited with fire elemental
20:36:44power making its power considerable. The
20:36:47thorn counterattack formation can
20:36:49reflect some damage. And since the
20:36:50ironwood armor technique also has a
20:36:52counterattack effect, the two effects
20:36:54might be able to stack. It seems like
20:36:56either set is a good deal. But in
20:36:58reality, after careful consideration, Su
20:37:01Chongqing felt that it was unnecessary.
20:37:03Both of these advanced formations have
20:37:05significant drawbacks. One needs to
20:37:07control the distance. One needs to
20:37:09engage in close combat. It's better to
20:37:11buy cheap incomplete spells and then use
20:37:14the system to repair them. That would be
20:37:16much more cost effective. Moreover, the
20:37:18immortal sex points have already reached
20:37:20over 1,600. After submitting one or two
20:37:23more tasks, they will definitely be able
20:37:25to choose a highle cultivation technique
20:37:27or spell. this year. Therefore, the
20:37:29Greenwood protection formation, which
20:37:31automatically triggers defense, was
20:37:33ultimately chosen. There's a famous
20:37:34saying, isn't there? What? Because I'm
20:37:37so afraid of pain, I've maxed out all my
20:37:39defense skills. Hanxen didn't waste any
20:37:42words and waved her hand. Okay, give it
20:37:45to me. Su Chongqing tossed the emerald
20:37:47green gourd over. After taking over,
20:37:50Hanxen took out a very small carving
20:37:52knife from her storage bag. It also had
20:37:54spirit patterns on it, so it was
20:37:56obviously a spirit weapon. Then in front
20:37:58of Su Chongqing, the carving knife began
20:38:01to carve the formation along the spirit
20:38:03patterns. This is a delicate task that
20:38:05requires a high degree of concentration.
20:38:08Su Chonqing noticed this and asked with
20:38:10some concern, "Aren't you drunk? Your
20:38:12hands won't be shaking, will they?" Han
20:38:14Exine rolled her eyes and said angrily,
20:38:16"You can question my drinking capacity,
20:38:19but you can't question my expertise."
20:38:21Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing gave an
20:38:24awkward smile and said nothing more. Try
20:38:26to provide the other person with a
20:38:28relatively quiet environment. If I say
20:38:30too much and the other person's hand
20:38:32slips, that would be bad. After all,
20:38:34this is his precious gourd. And so, time
20:38:37passed by second by second. Half an hour
20:38:39later, a rather intricate array appeared
20:38:42on the surface of the emerald gourd. It
20:38:44looks a bit like tree rings. Immediately
20:38:46afterwards, Hanxen took out a second
20:38:49item from her storage bag. At first
20:38:51glance, it appears to be a blue crystal.
20:38:53As someone with a wood elemental root,
20:38:55Su Chongqin could sense the rich wood
20:38:57elemental energy within. Hanxen
20:39:00explained without looking up. This is
20:39:01the Greenwood heart. Once it's in laid
20:39:03into the arrays core, it can resonate
20:39:05with your Azure gourd. Such Chan had
20:39:08heard of this item. It seemed to be
20:39:09quite expensive. If purchased
20:39:11separately, it would cost at least 30
20:39:13mid-grade spirit stones. As expected of
20:39:16a highle formation, the materials used
20:39:18are all quite sophisticated. The process
20:39:21of installing Aoki Shin is more
20:39:23complicated than drawing the formation.
20:39:25Su Chongqing thought that once it was
20:39:27inlaid, that would be enough. But to his
20:39:29surprise, it took another incense sticks
20:39:31time to finish. The emerald green gourd
20:39:34had changed considerably compared to
20:39:35before. This azurewood protective array
20:39:38is very small but through carving and
20:39:41guidance it has already merged with the
20:39:43spiritual runes and the greenwood heart
20:39:45is precisely embedded in the middle of
20:39:47the spirit pattern it will be
20:39:49automatically triggered whenever
20:39:50spiritual power or energy passes by. Han
20:39:53Xion explained as long as there are
20:39:55spirit stones in the gourd or you inject
20:39:58spiritual power into it this formation
20:40:00can continue to be activated. It will
20:40:02not stop unless the greenwood heart on
20:40:04top is broken. Such Chanqing asked,
20:40:06"What about defense?" Han Xian thought
20:40:09for a moment. At the same level as you,
20:40:11a metal spiritual root can withstand the
20:40:13passage of a cup of tea, a fire
20:40:15spiritual root can withstand the passage
20:40:17of an incense stick. As for an earth
20:40:19spiritual route, before she could finish
20:40:21speaking, she suddenly threw the emerald
20:40:23green gourd over. Such Chonqing caught
20:40:26it instinctively. Suddenly, the earth
20:40:28elemental energy around them became
20:40:30denser. Then with a poof sound, the
20:40:33ground cracked open and a yellow sharp
20:40:36thorn like a bamboo chute emerging from
20:40:38the soil stabbed Su Chonqing hard. But
20:40:41at this moment, a layer of blue light
20:40:43shown on the surface of the green gourd.
20:40:45The green wood protective array
20:40:47inscribed on it was activated and a very
20:40:49thick square of green would immediately
20:40:51appeared in front of Su Chongqing. The
20:40:54sharp earth spike slammed into it,
20:40:56making a loud thud, but it didn't expose
20:40:58the truth. It only made the square piece
20:41:00of green would tremble slightly, and
20:41:02that was all. But it didn't end there.
20:41:04Han Xen raised her right foot and
20:41:06stomped hard on the ground, releasing
20:41:08even more earth elemental power. The
20:41:11next second, three more earthn spikes
20:41:13emerged from Su Choning<unk>s center,
20:41:15pointing towards the rear and left and
20:41:17right sides, respectively. In other
20:41:19words, apart from the top of the head
20:41:21and the bottom of the feet, there are no
20:41:23blind spots. However, Such Chongqing was
20:41:25not harmed in any way. Whenever anything
20:41:28came near, it would activate the array
20:41:30embedded in the turquoise gourd.
20:41:32Immediately afterwards, layer upon layer
20:41:34of square green would emerged, blocking
20:41:36attacks from all directions. Su
20:41:38Chongqing raised an eyebrow. Such strong
20:41:41defensive capabilities. Han Xen said
20:41:43with considerable pride, "This is a
20:41:45highle formation. It is very small and
20:41:48isn't laid on a gourd. But as long as
20:41:50Aoki Shin isn't hurt, there won't be any
20:41:52problems." Su Chongqing said
20:41:54thoughtfully, "What if we encounter a
20:41:56golden core cultivator?" Han Xian curled
20:41:59her lip. Then you can just wait to die.
20:42:01Battles that transcend realms do exist.
20:42:04However, to achieve this, it is
20:42:06necessary to consider many factors. In
20:42:08reality, it is very easy for someone in
20:42:10the golden core stage to defeat someone
20:42:12in the foundation establishment stage.
20:42:15It's as simple as a human stepping on an
20:42:17ant. It's a complete route. Such
20:42:19Chanqing is currently very satisfied
20:42:21with this formation. At least when
20:42:23facing opponents of the same level, one
20:42:25won't be too passive. As for the higher
20:42:27realm, just like Han Xen said, you can
20:42:29just wait to die. Han Xen raised her
20:42:32chin and reminded him, 160 mid-grade
20:42:35spirit stones, no bargaining. Such
20:42:37Chanqing was certainly not stingy and
20:42:39immediately took out the spirit stones
20:42:41and yellow rice wine and handed them to
20:42:43the other party. Upon seeing the yellow
20:42:45rice wine, Han Xian<unk>s eyes lit up
20:42:48and her face beamed with happiness.
20:42:50Finally, I can have a sip. Wait a
20:42:52minute. Such Chonqing stopped him. Han
20:42:54Xen<unk>s face darkened, and she bared
20:42:57her teeth as if possessing her food.
20:42:58What are you doing? Such Chonqing took a
20:43:01step back in fright and explained, "It's
20:43:03getting late. Why don't you go back to
20:43:05the lay lines and drink it there?
20:43:06Otherwise, you'll have to sleep outside
20:43:08again." Han Exine frowned, thought it
20:43:11over, and reluctantly put down the
20:43:12premium yellow rice wine, picked up the
20:43:15premium spirit rice wine again, and then
20:43:17drank it as she walked towards the black
20:43:19flying shuttle. She had to admit that Su
20:43:21Chongqing was right. In spring and
20:43:23summer, sleeping outside is fine. But
20:43:25it's autumn now, and the cold air is
20:43:27heavy, which is very unfriendly to the
20:43:29earth spirit route. Therefore, it would
20:43:32be better to go back to the 38th level
20:43:33of the lay lines first, and then drink
20:43:36as much as you want. Such Chongqing
20:43:38stood at the door of the wooden house
20:43:39and watched as Han Xen controlled the
20:43:41battered dark shuttle to float up and
20:43:44then sped off towards the direction of
20:43:45the lay lines. But not far off, it
20:43:48suddenly plummeted down with a loud
20:43:49bang. Fortunately, after a while, the
20:43:52dark shuttle started flying up again,
20:43:54albeit shakily, but it fell down again
20:43:57not far away. Then it started repeating
20:43:59the cycle of taking off and crashing,
20:44:01taking off and crashing. Seeing this, Su
20:44:04Chongqing<unk>s face showed distress.
20:44:06And then he said with great regret, "The
20:44:08flying shuttle has suffered damage that
20:44:10it shouldn't have to at its age."
20:44:12Chapter 148, Submitting the Bright Moon
20:44:14Grass and the Inyong Intertwined Pill.
20:44:17Chapter 148, Submitting the Bright Moon
20:44:19Grass. The day for submitting the Inyong
20:44:21Intertwined Pill for the Bright Moon
20:44:23Grass soon arrived. There were only a
20:44:25few days left before the autumn harvest.
20:44:27Su Chongqing stepped on the large leaf
20:44:29grass and arrived at the fire zone of
20:44:32the alchemy pavilion. Instead of seeking
20:44:34out Chu Shio, the novice alchemist he
20:44:36had met once before, he went directly to
20:44:38the pill tower. If we can cooperate with
20:44:41you, Kaiing, a senior alchemist, there
20:44:43will be no difficulty in purchasing or
20:44:45learning how to make pills in the
20:44:46future. You finally arrived. Baiju had
20:44:49been waiting at the entrance of the pill
20:44:51tower for quite a while. The two had
20:44:53communicated beforehand using Binger's
20:44:55communication talisman and chose to meet
20:44:57here. After landing, Su Chongqing asked,
20:44:59"Senior sister, you are you free?" Baiju
20:45:02nodded. Although she is still refining
20:45:04pills, I have already made contact with
20:45:06her. We can meet her as soon as we get
20:45:08there and even witness her pill refining
20:45:10process in person. Upon hearing that he
20:45:12could see a real alchemy scene, Su
20:45:14Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up and he
20:45:16became equally excited. Afterwards, the
20:45:19two informed the guards of Dantab before
20:45:21being allowed to enter. This time when I
20:45:23came inside, I found that it was quite
20:45:25different from the last time. First, the
20:45:27number of alchemists needs to be much
20:45:29greater. Each of these people had a
20:45:31burning flame embroidered on their
20:45:32chest. Furthermore, apprentices with
20:45:35fire elemental roots are generally not
20:45:37allowed to enter. In other words,
20:45:39barring any unforeseen circumstances,
20:45:41they are at least novice alchemists.
20:45:43Upon seeing this, Bhuer exclaimed in
20:45:46realization, "So there's an alchemist
20:45:48leading the class today." Su Chongqing
20:45:50said with envy, "You alchemists are
20:45:52really united. Someone even leads the
20:45:55classes." As Baihuer led the way, she
20:45:58explained, "After all, there are too few
20:46:00alchemists." Then the two of them walked
20:46:02step by step down the spiral staircase
20:46:05toward the alchemy room number seven on
20:46:07the ninth floor. Occasionally, you'll
20:46:09encounter some alchemists who have come
20:46:10up from below. Some people recognized by
20:46:13Ju and would greet her. Some people,
20:46:15even strangers, have a cold expression.
20:46:18Not long after, the two arrived at room
20:46:20number seven on the 9inth basement level
20:46:22of the Dan Tower. The heavy stone door
20:46:24remained tightly shut and no sound could
20:46:26be heard. Baijuer took out Yuda<unk>s
20:46:29communication talisman and infused it
20:46:31with her own fire elemental power. Who
20:46:34senior sister, I've brought Su Chongqing
20:46:36with me. Okay, I understand. Please wait
20:46:39a moment. The conversation between the
20:46:41two was very brief. It's<unk> clear that
20:46:43you Kaiing doesn't like chatting. Then
20:46:45Su Chongqing and Baiju waited outside
20:46:47the door for about 3 minutes. Finally,
20:46:50the heavy stone door slowly opened. A
20:46:52sultry mist billowed out from within.
20:46:54Bhuer, who possessed a fire elemental
20:46:57root, couldn't help but frown, feeling
20:46:59slightly uncomfortable. Su Chonqing,
20:47:02with his dual wood and fire spiritual
20:47:04roots, not only felt no discomfort, but
20:47:06actually quite enjoyed it. Come in,
20:47:08cames voice from inside. Such Chonqing
20:47:12and Baihuer exchanged a glance, then
20:47:14went inside. After passing through the
20:47:16thick fog, the view suddenly opened up.
20:47:18In the very center, there is a
20:47:20triangular opening in the ground from
20:47:22which orange yellow flames flicker and
20:47:24continuously release surging heat.
20:47:27Directly above, there stands a
20:47:28three-legged cauldron. The cauldron was
20:47:31entirely black as if it were cast from
20:47:33deep sea iron with fine frost patterns
20:47:35engraved on its surface. The tripod is
20:47:38supported by three coiled dragons, their
20:47:40mouths slightly open, occasionally
20:47:42spewing out cooling air. The lid of the
20:47:45cauldron is carved with nine lotus
20:47:47leaves which appear to be slightly
20:47:48opening, making it quite magical. At
20:47:51this moment, Yukai stood on the right
20:47:53side of the cauldron, her left hand
20:47:55forming the fire separation technique,
20:47:57hand seal, her expression appearing
20:48:00exceptionally focused. It said that
20:48:02serious men are handsome and charming.
20:48:04This phrase is actually quite fitting to
20:48:06describe Yuka today. Seeing this, Baiju
20:48:09whispered a reminder, "Senior sister,
20:48:11we're here." Yukai didn't even glance at
20:48:14it, still focusing intently on the
20:48:16Shinming cauldron, and said, "Wait a
20:48:18moment. The temperature inside the
20:48:20furnace will stabilize in a short
20:48:21while." Upon hearing this, neither Su
20:48:24Chongqing nor Baiju dared to breathe
20:48:26loudly. He just stood there watching
20:48:29with a face full of curiosity. As time
20:48:31goes by, you can definitely feel the
20:48:33change in temperature. The earth fire
20:48:35beneath the Shienming cauldron, which
20:48:37was originally extremely volatile and
20:48:39constantly releasing heat, is now
20:48:41gradually calming down. At this moment,
20:48:43Utsaing<unk>s hands moved as if plucking
20:48:46strings in the air, sometimes as fast as
20:48:48lightning, sometimes as slow as a snail.
20:48:51With each flick of the rod, wisps of
20:48:53fire were drawn out, and the temperature
20:48:55of the Shinming cauldron finally
20:48:56stabilized. Only then did Yu Kaing lower
20:48:59her hands and breathe a sigh of relief,
20:49:02saying, "Finally, I can rest." Baiju
20:49:05winked at Su Chongqing, and the two of
20:49:07them immediately stepped forward.
20:49:09"Senior sister," Baijuer called out
20:49:11sweetly, immediately, hugging the others
20:49:13delicate arm. "Of course, if permitted,"
20:49:16she actually preferred to cling to the
20:49:17coattails of this highle alchemist. Yuku
20:49:20Kaiing turned around looking at Su
20:49:22Chongqing with a slightly scrutinizing
20:49:24gaze and asked, "How is the moon grass
20:49:26you were asked to cultivate?" Without
20:49:28further ado, Su Chongqing padded the
20:49:31emerald gourd at his waist, and in an
20:49:33instant, a thousand top grade moon
20:49:35grasses, each shaped like a crescent
20:49:37moon and 7 in long, appeared out of thin
20:49:39air. Bhuer exclaimed in surprise, "A
20:49:42jade green gourd." Yuka was also quite
20:49:45surprised, but quickly focused her
20:49:47attention on the bright moon grass. A
20:49:49quick scan with his spiritual sense
20:49:51revealed that the other party was indeed
20:49:53not lying. Each one is truly top quality
20:49:56without any problems. Su Chongqing
20:49:58smiled slightly. Senior sister, you have
20:50:00I passed this assessment. You Kaiing put
20:50:03away the thousand top grade moon grasses
20:50:05and nodded slightly, saying, "You do
20:50:08indeed have the ability to grow top
20:50:10grade spiritual plants. In that case, I
20:50:12am willing to establish a long-term
20:50:14cooperative relationship with you." Such
20:50:16Chanqing was all right. He wasn't
20:50:18particularly excited or thrilled because
20:50:20he knew in his heart that as long as the
20:50:22other party did not back out, the
20:50:24success rate was 100%. Only Baiju
20:50:27completely relaxed when she heard these
20:50:29words. It wasn't because she cared so
20:50:31much about Su Chongqing, but because if
20:50:33he succeeded, her relationship with
20:50:35Yukai would get even closer. Even if I
20:50:38can't get close to a powerful figure by
20:50:40then, I should at least be able to learn
20:50:41some alchemy skills. Su Chonqing was
20:50:44very curious. Senior Sister Yu, what
20:50:46medicinal herbs should I plant next?
20:50:48Yukaiing took out her communication
20:50:50talisman and handed it over, saying,
20:50:52"This time I refined a high-grade
20:50:54waterfire dragon tiger pill. Next time
20:50:56I'll try refining an EarthGrade Inyang
20:50:59intertwined pill. Requires Yong type
20:51:01medicinal materials, namely Chiang Jins
20:51:04Singh and Jin Wu vine. It requires
20:51:06inyong medicinal materials, namely Shian
20:51:09Lingji and Mingyu Chao, and the
20:51:11auxiliary medicine Tai flower. Which one
20:51:14can you breed? Byer<unk>'s eyes widened
20:51:16in surprise, and she exclaimed, "A great
20:51:19earth pill?" Su Chongqing exclaimed in
20:51:21astonishment. Isn't this exciting from
20:51:23the very beginning? Yukaiing frowned
20:51:26slightly, revealing a trace of sorrow. I
20:51:28have dual spiritual roots of water and
20:51:30fire, and the water is a slightly
20:51:32mutated ice water. If I want to break
20:51:34through to the golden core stage, I must
20:51:36use earthrade pills. Su Chongqing then
20:51:39realized, "I see." Yuka waved her hand.
20:51:42Of course, if you don't have the ability
20:51:44for the time being or if you are worried
20:51:46about failure, you don't have to help.
20:51:49Su Choning chuckled. Senior sister, you
20:51:51right. Since I can cultivate top grade
20:51:54moon grass, the other medicinal herbs
20:51:56will definitely be no problem either.
20:51:58Chapter 149 Waterfire Dragon Tiger Pill.
20:52:01Points already sufficient. Chapter 149
20:52:04Waterfire Dragon Tiger Pill. Su
20:52:06Chongqing now has enough points and 2
20:52:09acres of second grade spirit fields. The
20:52:11spiritual plants in the first acre of
20:52:13spiritual field should not be altered
20:52:15too much. Especially the finest
20:52:17spiritual rice which is of utmost
20:52:19importance. For thousand caddies in one
20:52:21quarter 800 caddies were given to Leing
20:52:24by 150 caddies were given to Hubu. But
20:52:28it wasn't over yet. At the end of each
20:52:30quarter they still had to submit 1,250
20:52:33gene. So all that was left was 1,800
20:52:36gene. Of these, 300 gene were used to
20:52:39brew top grade spirit rice wine and top
20:52:41grade yellow rice wine, leaving only
20:52:43about 1,500 gene of top grade spirit
20:52:46rice. Currently, the only resource that
20:52:48can be flexibly utilized is the second
20:52:51acre of second grade spiritual land.
20:52:53However, it cannot be planted completely
20:52:55since the mutated mother rise from the
20:52:57Rocky Mountain still needs to be
20:52:59transplanted here. Therefore, after much
20:53:01deliberation, Such Chongqing finally
20:53:03chose two medicinal herbs. The medicinal
20:53:06herb gyostemma pentaphilm in type
20:53:08medicinal herb mi waco. The former is a
20:53:11type of vine that can enclose the entire
20:53:13spirit field making it impossible for
20:53:15people to see what's inside. The latter
20:53:18having been cultivated once before is
20:53:20more experienced so there's no need to
20:53:22worry about any unexpected events. Yu
20:53:24Kaing nodded. Okay, I'll figure out the
20:53:27rest of the crimson Yong Jin Sen,
20:53:29mysterious Enling Ling Xi and Tai Flower
20:53:31myself. Such Chanqing asked, "How do we
20:53:34find the seeds?" Yukaiing opened her
20:53:36jade medicine pouch. I still have a lot
20:53:38of bright moonrass seeds here. As for
20:53:40golden crow vine seeds, you can buy them
20:53:42in the market or exchange them with
20:53:44points at the spirit field management
20:53:46office. Su Chongqing blinked, his eyes
20:53:48filled with anticipation as he asked,
20:53:50"Senior sister, how will our
20:53:52compensation be calculated?" Yukai
20:53:55replied, "If I am in the process of
20:53:57refining pills, you can have one of
20:53:58them. You can sell it or keep it as you
20:54:00please. If they're not currently in the
20:54:02pill refining stage, buy them all at
20:54:04market price. Such Chongqing seemed to
20:54:07be deep in thought upon hearing this. As
20:54:09a highle alchemist, Yukai could produce
20:54:11at least 100 mid-grade spirit stones for
20:54:14any batch of high-grade pills. If it was
20:54:16an Earth-Grade pill, it would be worth
20:54:18at least five or even 10 times that
20:54:20amount. Moreover, people are willing to
20:54:22buy it with spirit stones when they are
20:54:24resting. No matter how you look at it,
20:54:26this is a surefire way to make money.
20:54:28However, just as Su Chongqing was about
20:54:30to demand payment for the thousand
20:54:32bright moon grasses on the other side,
20:54:34the Shianing cauldron standing at the
20:54:36mouth of the earth fire suddenly
20:54:37trembled and emitted a slight humming
20:54:40sound. The three people's attention was
20:54:42instantly drawn to it. Yukaing reacted
20:54:44the fastest. It looks like this batch of
20:54:47waterfire dragon tiger pills is about to
20:54:49be successfully refined. This is a
20:54:51high-grade elixir and Su Chongqing and
20:54:53Bai are both very much looking forward
20:54:56to it. Next, Yukai took out an
20:54:58amber-colored box from the jade medicine
20:55:00pouch. As soon as she opened it, a
20:55:02fierce aura burst out. Baiju was
20:55:05startled and immediately took several
20:55:07steps back. Her eyes filled with fear.
20:55:09Such Chongqing was initially quite calm,
20:55:11but when he saw that she was backing
20:55:13away, he also took a few steps back.
20:55:15Once the two had adjusted to the site,
20:55:18they looked again and discovered that
20:55:19inside the amber colored box was a drop
20:55:22of mysterious liquid, silvery golden in
20:55:24color, gleaming with a cold metallic
20:55:26luster. Bhuer exclaimed in surprise,
20:55:29"This is actually a drop of essence
20:55:31blood from a thousand-year-old platinum
20:55:33tiger. It is said that the platinum
20:55:35tiger possesses a trace of the bloodline
20:55:37of the divine beast, the white tiger.
20:55:39Normal blood is also red. Only the
20:55:42essence blood was a metallic white gold
20:55:44color." Yukaiing said in a deep voice.
20:55:46The final step in refining the waterfire
20:55:49dragon tiger pill is to put in this drop
20:55:51of the essence blood of the
20:55:52thousand-year-old platinum tiger to make
20:55:54the medicinal power inside fully erupt.
20:55:57This was the first time Su Chongqing had
20:55:59ever seen such a scene of alchemy. So,
20:56:01he concentrated intently and secretly
20:56:04learned it. Then, Yukaiing approached
20:56:06the Shinming cauldron, opened the lid a
20:56:08crack, and threw in a drop of the
20:56:10essence blood of the thousand-year-old
20:56:12white gold tiger. Instantly, a hissing
20:56:14sound rang out from inside. Immediately
20:56:17afterwards, as if boiling, hot steam
20:56:19kept gushing out. Strangely, this heat
20:56:22not only contained the ferocious aura of
20:56:24the thousand-year-old demon tiger, but
20:56:26also a trace of sharp gung metal sword
20:56:28intent. The entire Shinming cauldron was
20:56:31struggling to withstand the intense
20:56:32medicinal power inside and began to
20:56:35shake violently. But it wasn't over yet.
20:56:37Yukaiing switched the fire separation
20:56:39technique to the fire ignition
20:56:41technique, activated the fire spiritual
20:56:43power in her own chi sea, and waved her
20:56:46hand towards the earth fire entrance
20:56:47below the Shien Ming cauldron. The
20:56:49orange yellow flames, which had been
20:56:51relatively stable, suddenly became
20:56:53violent again with a whoosh, twisting
20:56:55wildly as if venting their anger. The
20:56:58cauldron, covered in frost patterns,
20:57:00immediately became scalding hot, and a
20:57:02layer of red light appeared on its
20:57:04surface. It looked as if it was cooked
20:57:06through. Few, few. The three legs,
20:57:09resembling coiled dragons, continuously
20:57:12spewed out chilling air. For a time, the
20:57:14entire alchemy room became extremely
20:57:16unstable, alternating between hot and
20:57:19cold temperatures. Such Chongqing
20:57:21silently took a few steps back and aimed
20:57:23the emerald gourd at the Shiming
20:57:25Cauldron. If the thing exploded, it
20:57:26would at least buy him some time to
20:57:28escape. However, as time went on, it not
20:57:31only did not explode, but also became
20:57:33more and more stable. Finally, the lotus
20:57:36flower on the lid of the cauldron fully
20:57:38bloomed, emitting a faint glow. At the
20:57:40same time, the waterfire dragon tiger
20:57:43pill in the Shinming cauldron was
20:57:44completed, and a rich medicinal aroma
20:57:47filled the air. Yukaing seized the
20:57:49opportunity, made the fire separation
20:57:51seal with her left hand and the fire
20:57:53induction seal with her right hand, and
20:57:55then slammed her hand hard against the
20:57:56Shinming cauldron in front of her. With
20:57:58a gurgling sound, the lid of the
20:58:00cauldron flew off, and wisps of heat
20:58:03were drawn away. Immediately afterwards,
20:58:05a clump of flowing liquid floated out
20:58:07from inside. Because it's hot, it hasn't
20:58:10set in shape yet. It has a bluish white
20:58:12sheen. It has the connotation of wood's
20:58:14vitality. It also possesses the
20:58:16sharpness and intensity of gold.
20:58:18Yukaiing manipulated the liquid with
20:58:20both hands, dividing the large mass into
20:58:23three smaller masses of similar size. At
20:58:26this moment, the Shinming cauldron
20:58:27emitted waves of cold air, causing the
20:58:30surrounding temperature to drop sharply.
20:58:32The previously unformed waterfire dragon
20:58:34tiger pill quickly transformed from a
20:58:37liquid to a solid state. Baihuer
20:58:39immediately gave a thumbs up and
20:58:40praised. As expected of senior sister
20:58:43Yu, she successfully refined a
20:58:44high-grade pill. Just like that, Su
20:58:47Chanqing thought to himself, "The whole
20:58:49process is much more complicated than
20:58:50when I was making the labor
20:58:52strengthening pill, and it is also quite
20:58:54dangerous." Yuku Kaiing packed the three
20:58:57waterfire dragon tiger pills separately,
20:58:59then took one of them and handed it
20:59:01over, saying, "Consider this a gift for
20:59:03our cooperation." Bhuer said enviously,
20:59:06"Right now, a waterfire dragon tiger
20:59:08pill can sell for at least 110 mid-grade
20:59:11spirit stones." Upon hearing this, Su
20:59:14Chonqing immediately accepted the hand
20:59:16with a smile. Senior sister Yu is so
20:59:19generous. Yu Kaiing rubbed her temples,
20:59:21looking slightly tired. I need to rest
20:59:24for a while before trying to refine the
20:59:25Earth grade pill, the Inyong intertwined
20:59:28pill. In a few days, autumn will come to
20:59:31an end. When all the spirit farmers
20:59:33began to harvest the spirit rice, Such
20:59:35Chongqing carrying 1,600 gene of top
20:59:39grade spirit rice leisurely arrived at
20:59:41the core management office of the spirit
20:59:43field. It used to be 1,200 or,500. Why
20:59:47is it more this time? Of course, it's to
20:59:49get more points. Since we're already at
20:59:51the foundation establishment stage,
20:59:53giving us more won't be a problem. 1,600
20:59:56caddies of second grade spirit field
20:59:58produce top grade spirit rice, which can
21:00:00be exchanged for 400 points. Adding the
21:00:03remaining 1,600 points, I now have
21:00:05exactly 2,000, enough to finally
21:00:07exchange for a highle cultivation
21:00:09technique or spell from the immortal
21:00:11sect. Chapter 150. Mysterious with
21:00:13golden body technique. Planting the
21:00:15golden crow vine. Chapter 150.
21:00:18mysterious with golden body technique,
21:00:20planting golden crow vine, Such
21:00:22Chongqing quickly found Elder Hua. It's
21:00:24you. Elder Hua recognized the formal
21:00:27disciple who had grown the top grade
21:00:28spirit rice once again. Su Chonqing
21:00:31cuped his hands in a respectful bow.
21:00:33Greetings, Steward. Old Hua looked him
21:00:35up and down, then asked, "Is there
21:00:37something you need?" Such Chonqing
21:00:39quickly explained his purpose. I have
21:00:41collected 2,000 points. So, I would like
21:00:44to exchange them for a highle
21:00:45cultivation technique or a highle spell.
21:00:48If I remember correctly, there are three
21:00:49parts in total. These are wood spirit
21:00:52cultivation technique, wood spirit
21:00:54entanglement technique and wood spirit
21:00:57health preservation technique. When he
21:00:59could choose for free, he chose spirit
21:01:01entanglement. Therefore, you can choose
21:01:03between the wood spirit cultivation
21:01:05technique and the with spirit health
21:01:07preservation technique. Upon hearing
21:01:10this, Elder Hua suddenly realized what
21:01:12was happening and then took out a series
21:01:13of jade pendants. The number of them far
21:01:16exceeds three. There are at least a
21:01:18dozen. Su Chongqing was taken aback.
21:01:20Aren't there three types? Huao smiled
21:01:23and explained, "There are indeed only
21:01:25three types ofqi refining stage, but you
21:01:28are now in the foundation establishment
21:01:29stage, so the number of cultivation
21:01:31methods and spells you can choose from
21:01:33will increase." Such Choning<unk>s eyes
21:01:35lit up and he immediately checked the
21:01:37cultivation techniques category. The
21:01:39Azure Emperor's longevity formula it can
21:01:42extend lifespan initially by 20 years
21:01:44compared to those at the same level. The
21:01:46scripture of transforming wood into
21:01:48spirit. Transform wood spirit power into
21:01:51wood's spirit liquid which is used for
21:01:53healing or cultivating spirit plants.
21:01:55The myriad manifestations of the
21:01:57universe. They can control vine armor
21:02:00and wood escaping techniques to conceal
21:02:02their form using vegetation. These are
21:02:04three advanced cultivation techniques
21:02:06chosen by those in the foundation
21:02:08establishment stage. Their names alone
21:02:10reveal just how powerful they are. Next
21:02:13are attack spells. Thousand vine
21:02:15strangulation technique, azure lightning
21:02:17tribulation sword, withering,
21:02:19flourishing, desolation, and extinction.
21:02:22Then there are defensive spells.
21:02:24Mysterious wood golden body technique.
21:02:26All spirit wood shield. Wood spirit
21:02:28substitution technique. Next are the
21:02:30support spells. Plant-based psychic
21:02:32therapy. Wood spirits escape step.
21:02:35Hundred flowers illusionary dream array.
21:02:37The art of resurrection. Spirit seed
21:02:40initiation technique. The mantra of
21:02:42springtime for all trees. In total,
21:02:45there are three advanced cultivation
21:02:46techniques and 12 advanced spells. At
21:02:49this moment, Elder Hua reminded him,
21:02:51"These advanced cultivation techniques
21:02:53and spells can help you transition from
21:02:55the foundation establishment stage to
21:02:57the golden course stage, so choose them
21:02:59carefully." Upon hearing this, Such
21:03:01Chaning narrowed his eyes and pondered
21:03:03silently. Since these are advanced
21:03:05cultivation techniques and spells used
21:03:07to transition from the foundation
21:03:09establishment stage to the golden core
21:03:11stage, they certainly cannot be chosen
21:03:13half-hazardly. In terms of cultivation
21:03:15techniques, he already possesses the
21:03:17even more heaven-deying azure lotus
21:03:20creation technique. Therefore, it cannot
21:03:22be changed arbitrarily. It seems we have
21:03:25to choose one of the three main
21:03:26categories of magic. After thinking it
21:03:28over, Su Chonqing looked distressed and
21:03:30couldn't help but say, "I want them all.
21:03:33Whether it's an attack, defense, or
21:03:35support spell, it's suitable for you.
21:03:37But unfortunately, 2,000 points can only
21:03:40be redeemed for one of them, making it a
21:03:42difficult choice." Old Hua smiled and
21:03:44said, "Do it according to your own
21:03:46needs." Such Chanin took a deep breath
21:03:48and tried to calm himself down. If I
21:03:51really had to choose, I would definitely
21:03:52prioritize defensive and support
21:03:54classes. I feel that both the mysterious
21:03:57wood golden body technique and the
21:03:59myriad spirit wood shield are quite
21:04:01good. The former can harden the skin
21:04:03like a precious tree, increasing its
21:04:05resistance to physical attacks. The
21:04:07latter can summon ancient tree phantoms
21:04:09to block magical attacks. But as he
21:04:12looked, his gaze uncontrollably shifted
21:04:14to the auxiliary skills and even locked
21:04:16onto the spirit seed initiation
21:04:18technique. Seeing this, Elder Hua
21:04:20explained, "When this spell is at a low
21:04:22level, it can accelerate the growth of
21:04:24spiritual plants. At its maximum level,
21:04:27it can transform plants into spirits,
21:04:29temporarily taking the form of wood
21:04:31spirits to protect them." Such Chongqing
21:04:34raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself,
21:04:36"So, it's different from the green
21:04:37finger. I thought it could have the same
21:04:39effect of mutating spiritual plants.
21:04:41After a while, old man Hua asked, "Well,
21:04:44which one have you chosen?" Su Chongqing
21:04:47said seriously. I choose the mysterious
21:04:49with golden body technique. Because of
21:04:51the Azure gourd, it possesses a green
21:04:54wood protective array. It can
21:04:56automatically defend itself when
21:04:57attacked. Therefore, there is no need to
21:04:59choose a second type of defensive
21:05:01shield. However, since the wood spirit
21:05:03root is relatively weak in combat in the
21:05:06early stages, it might as well maximize
21:05:08its defense. After all, the Azure lotus
21:05:10domain already exists to increase the
21:05:13growth rate of spiritual plants. If we
21:05:15choose the spirit seed initiation
21:05:17technique, wouldn't the two conflict?
21:05:19Although at max level, it can conjure
21:05:21plants into spirits and briefly
21:05:23transform into spirit guardians. But
21:05:26ultimately, it is an external thing and
21:05:28it will be unstable and uncontrollable.
21:05:30It might even be forcibly controlled by
21:05:32an even more powerful wood spirit route,
21:05:34which isn't very safe. Hua was
21:05:37surprised. A defensive type. Su
21:05:39Chongqing nodded with a smile. Yes. Hua
21:05:42Jang handed over the jade tablet
21:05:44containing the contents of the
21:05:45mysterious wood golden body technique.
21:05:48Su Chongqing took it, channeled his
21:05:50spiritual sense into it, and instantly
21:05:52imprinted all the contents into his
21:05:54mind. The whole process was completed in
21:05:57an instant, and after it was done, it
21:05:59was returned to Mr. Hua. After thinking
21:06:01for a moment, Su Chongqing asked
21:06:03curiously, "Manager, if I collect
21:06:05another 2,000 points, can I choose
21:06:07another highle spell?" Elder Hua shook
21:06:10his head. This is a benefit for breaking
21:06:12through to a higher realm. The first
21:06:14time you choose, you only get 2,000
21:06:16points, but the next time you get 3,000
21:06:19Such Chongqing scratched his head,
21:06:213,000? It's not unacceptable. He then
21:06:23said goodbye to Huao, but did not leave.
21:06:26Instead, he found a staff member to
21:06:28inquire about the seeds of the golden
21:06:30crow vine. Because this is a relatively
21:06:32highle spiritual plant, it's a bit
21:06:34expensive in terms of points. Such
21:06:36Chanqing only had a little over 2,000
21:06:38points. After exchanging for a highle
21:06:40defensive spell, he was left with a
21:06:42pitiful 5 points. Therefore, having no
21:06:45other choice, they had to hand over
21:06:47another 100 caddies of top grade spirit
21:06:49rice from the second grade spirit fields
21:06:51in order to buy it. Subtract the 1,700
21:06:54gene submitted for the task. 800 caddies
21:06:57were given to Lee Lingby. Hubuay
21:06:59received 150 gene of meat. 300 caddies
21:07:02are needed for brewing. The remaining
21:07:04500 gene will be sold in the market
21:07:06later. Currently, there are still 5,50
21:07:10gene of premium lingi rice remaining.
21:07:12After driving the large leaf grass back
21:07:15home, Such Chonqing began planting it
21:07:17without stopping. The seeds of the
21:07:19golden crow vine are about the size of a
21:07:21pigeon egg and their surface is covered
21:07:23with fine spiral patterns. It is sharp
21:07:25at both ends. One end is dark gold and
21:07:28the other end is as red as fire. In
21:07:30terms of quantity, Yukai doesn't need
21:07:32much because she is an alchemist. Such
21:07:35Choning chose to plant 100 plants first,
21:07:37leaving the rest of the spirit field for
21:07:39bright moonrass, mutated mother rice,
21:07:42and mutated daughter rice. The growth
21:07:44pattern of the golden crow vine is
21:07:45actually the exact opposite of that of
21:07:47the moon grass. Moon flowers need to
21:07:50absorb moonlight at night to thrive. On
21:07:52the contrary, golden crow vine needs to
21:07:55absorb sunlight during the day to
21:07:57thrive. Su Chonqing arrived at the edge
21:07:59of the second acre of second grade
21:08:01spirit field, intending to plant 100
21:08:03seeds around the field. However, this
21:08:06time it wasn't just wood elemental power
21:08:08that was injected, but also fire
21:08:10elemental power. Golden crow vine has
21:08:12two attributes. In the seed stage, it is
21:08:15a wood attribute. As it grows and
21:08:17absorbs more and more sunlight, it will
21:08:19transform into a fire element. According
21:08:21to the records of spirit fields, if a
21:08:24trace of fire elemental power is infused
21:08:26during planting, then the growth rate
21:08:28will be faster and the quality will also
21:08:30improve. Other spirit farmers really can
21:08:33infuse fire spirit power. After all,
21:08:35most people only have one spiritual
21:08:37route, which is the wood spiritual root.
21:08:40Such Chonqing is different. He not only
21:08:42has a wood spiritual root, but he has
21:08:44also awakened a thunder and fire
21:08:46spiritual root. In the cheese sea,
21:08:48besides a pool of wood spiritual energy,
21:08:50there was also a pool of fire spiritual
21:08:52energy. Normally, it can only be used
21:08:55for starting fires, cooking, and brewing
21:08:57medicinal liquids. Now that we finally
21:08:59found an opportunity to use it, we're
21:09:02eager to see what these golden crow vine
21:09:03seeds will grow into. Chapter 151.
21:09:06Cultivating the golden crow vine.
21:09:08Encountering Luo Buching. Chapter 151.
21:09:11Cultivating the golden crow vine.
21:09:13Encountering Lu Buching with spiritual
21:09:15power brings life. Fire elemental power
21:09:18activates the source. Two different
21:09:20types of spiritual energy were injected
21:09:22into a golden crow vine. Seed the size
21:09:25of a pigeon egg and the two sharp ends
21:09:27immediately showed two different colors.
21:09:30The left side is cyan containing with
21:09:32elemental power. The right side is red
21:09:34containing fire elemental power.
21:09:37However, the two spiritual energies are
21:09:39very stable in the seeds of the golden
21:09:41crow vine. Normally, the fire spiritual
21:09:43energy will devour the wood's spiritual
21:09:45energy since wood generates fire. But
21:09:48now, it seems that this seed has
21:09:49balanced things out. Such Chanqing
21:09:52observing this exclaimed in surprise,
21:09:54"The seeds of high-grade spiritual
21:09:56plants are truly extraordinary." He
21:09:58tossed the seeds down right at his feet.
21:10:01Then he activated the with spirit
21:10:03entanglement technique controlling it to
21:10:05burrow into the black soil. Next, the
21:10:08process was repeated continuously. A
21:10:10full 100 golden crow vine seeds were
21:10:12infused with two different types of
21:10:14spiritual power and then buried in the
21:10:16black soil. Because the distance was
21:10:18well controlled, the entire acre of
21:10:20grade two spiritual field was barely
21:10:22enclosed. But the story doesn't end
21:10:24there. Since there's still a lot of
21:10:26empty land, they started planting moon
21:10:28grass seeds again. In this way, the
21:10:30outermost edge is covered with golden
21:10:32crow vines. A little further in, there
21:10:34is the moon grass. This time, however,
21:10:37Such Chongqing did not plant a thousand
21:10:39bright moonrass plants. Instead, it's
21:10:42reduced by half, which is 500. After
21:10:44all, we just handed over a thousand
21:10:46plants to Yukai, and she hasn't even
21:10:49used them yet. Firstly, we don't need
21:10:51too many this time. Secondly, we must
21:10:53leave room for mutated mother rice
21:10:55varieties. By the time all this was
21:10:57finished, it was already evening. As the
21:10:59sun began to set in the west, the
21:11:01sunlight turned a dim yellowish hue. The
21:11:04temperature dropped accordingly, and a
21:11:06chill gradually crept in. Seeing this,
21:11:09Su Chongqing did not rush to summon his
21:11:11companion lotus, but instead walked
21:11:13towards the wooden house. I plan to
21:11:15cultivate these moon grasses after
21:11:16dinner once the moon has risen. As for
21:11:19the seeds of the golden crow vine, we
21:11:21can only wait until tomorrow when the
21:11:22sun comes out on the ridge of the field.
21:11:25The guinea foul left after images with
21:11:27their feet running ahead in a panic.
21:11:29Behind them, Wong Wong followed closely
21:11:31with a mischievous grin. They could
21:11:33catch up or even surpass them in an
21:11:36instant, but it didn't. It was
21:11:37mischievous and had a great time playing
21:11:39around. The dog and chicken only stopped
21:11:42when the aroma of food wafted from
21:11:44inside the house, and then they trotted
21:11:46happily into the house. Time flew by,
21:11:48and it was the morning of the next day.
21:11:50After finishing his daily tasks, Su
21:11:52Chongqing once again came to the
21:11:54vicinity of the second acre of second
21:11:56grade spirit field. Overnight, the moon
21:11:58grass that I cultivated last night has
21:12:00sprouted and grown. The seeds of the
21:12:02golden crow vine remained completely
21:12:04still and showed no reaction whatsoever.
21:12:07Su Chongqing was unsurprised and
21:12:09immediately summoned his companion
21:12:11lotus, then threw it out. As a cool aura
21:12:14spread rapidly, the Azure lotus domain
21:12:16instantly enveloped the entire acre of
21:12:19spiritual field. Time passed by second
21:12:21by second for about a few minutes.
21:12:24Suddenly, Sue Choning<unk>s fire spirit
21:12:26root stirred, and he then felt the
21:12:28temperature near the spirit field slowly
21:12:30rising. He quickly looked down and saw a
21:12:32golden crow vine seed at his feet. Its
21:12:35tender shoots slowly emerging from its
21:12:37hard shell. Gradually emerging from the
21:12:39black soil. It begins to absorb the
21:12:41sunlight from outside. Su Chongqing
21:12:43nodded slightly. It has sprouted. Before
21:12:46long, all 100 seeds of the golden crow
21:12:48vine sprouted without any problems.
21:12:51Although the temperature near Lingian is
21:12:53still rising, but it's late autumn now
21:12:55and winter is just a few days away, so
21:12:57the temperature is low. Even if it rises
21:12:59further, it doesn't reach a level that
21:13:01makes people or spiritual plants
21:13:03uncomfortable. In fact, it's quite
21:13:05comfortable because of the slight warmth
21:13:07it emits. Seeing that there were no
21:13:09problems, Such Chongqing walked to the
21:13:11other side. Before long, he arrived at
21:13:13the foot of a popppler tree covered with
21:13:15fallen leaves. Not minding the dirt, he
21:13:18sat down on the ground, leaned against
21:13:20the tree trunk, took out some top
21:13:22quality yellow rice wine, and began to
21:13:24study the mysterious wood golden body
21:13:26technique.
21:13:27Days passed by. Such Chonqing cultivated
21:13:30spirit rice and golden crow vines during
21:13:32the day and cultivated bright moon grass
21:13:34at night. Whenever he had free time, he
21:13:37would study the mysterious wood golden
21:13:39body technique, making his life very
21:13:41fulfilling. Now, the moon grass has
21:13:44grown to 2 in tall and even shows signs
21:13:46of bending over. The most significant
21:13:49change, however, is in the seeds of the
21:13:51golden crow vine. As they grew, roots
21:13:53began to grow from the nodes. Such
21:13:55Chongqing specially found some branches
21:13:57and inserted them next to them so that
21:13:59they could climb and grow upwards by
21:14:01attaching to the support. Today, the
21:14:03overall surface is still mostly green.
21:14:06However, upon closer inspection, a thin
21:14:08red line can be observed. It extends
21:14:11from the top down to the roots in the
21:14:12black soil. During the day, as it
21:14:15absorbs more and more sunlight, it also
21:14:17releases more heat. In particular, its
21:14:19growth rate is even faster than that of
21:14:21Ling Dao and Miji Waco. I feel that it
21:14:24will take at most 20 days to fence off
21:14:26the entire acre of spiritual field. At
21:14:29that time, we should be able to
21:14:30transplant the mutated mother rise from
21:14:32the Rocky Mountains. Suddenly, the
21:14:34emerald gourd sent a message. Su
21:14:36Chongqing<unk>s heart stirred and a
21:14:38communication talisman appeared in his
21:14:40hand. As the wood elemental power was
21:14:42infused, Sunping<unk>s voice came from
21:14:45the other side. Hello, fellow Daist Kai.
21:14:48It's time to trade spirit rice again. I
21:14:50haven't forgotten. The liquor store is
21:14:52opening soon and we're just waiting for
21:14:54you to come. Okay, I'll go there at
21:14:56noon. Very well. I will be waiting for
21:14:58you in Daing City. Communication was
21:15:01interrupted and Su Chongqing put the
21:15:03other party's communication talisman
21:15:05into his jade gourd. He had always
21:15:07remembered his trip to the market town
21:15:09for scattered cultivators. He had never
21:15:11forgotten it. After all, this is related
21:15:13to whether or not they can earn more
21:15:15spirit stones in the future. However, at
21:15:17the same time, we also need to find some
21:15:19fire attribute cultivation techniques
21:15:21and spells. It doesn't matter whether
21:15:23it's low-level or high level or whether
21:15:25it's an incomplete piece. Anyway, you
21:15:28can reach the maximum level as quickly
21:15:30as possible by consuming your lifespan.
21:15:32Such Chongqing has thought it through.
21:15:34Wood spirit roots are mainly used to
21:15:36enhance defense and recovery, serving as
21:15:38a support function. If it really comes
21:15:40to a fight, you need a fire elemental
21:15:42route that's even more frenzied and
21:15:44deals more damage. Therefore, after
21:15:47taking care of the golden crow vines in
21:15:49the spirit field, Su Chonqing
21:15:50immediately returned to the wooden house
21:15:52to start making lunch and even dinner
21:15:54for Wong Wong and the pearl chickens.
21:15:57This time, I might spend a day or two in
21:15:59the scattered cultivator market in Daing
21:16:01City. Once everything was ready, he
21:16:03summoned his mode of transportation, big
21:16:05leaf grass, and flew towards the casting
21:16:07peak on the other side. Along the way,
21:16:09you can see many spiritual fields being
21:16:12harvested. However, there are many
21:16:14different ways to do it. Some people
21:16:16like Su Chongqing prefer to use sickles.
21:16:18Others sought out familiar people with
21:16:20golden spiritual roots and asked them to
21:16:22help them resolve the issue. However,
21:16:25what surprised Su Chongqing the most was
21:16:27a spirit beast. It is a large golden
21:16:29toad. Each time they harvest, a golden
21:16:31ball will bulge on their backs. This
21:16:33scene gave Su Chongqing the illusion
21:16:35that he had returned to the outskirts of
21:16:37the spirit field. I remember during the
21:16:39third assessment, a golden toad helped
21:16:41me harvest the spirit rice. I vaguely
21:16:44remember that the official disciple of
21:16:46the spirit beast valley was named Lu
21:16:48Buching. Moreover, this person possesses
21:16:50both water and with spiritual roots.
21:16:53Unexpectedly, we met again at the core
21:16:55of the spirit field. However, because he
21:16:57was in a hurry to get to the independent
21:16:59cultivator market in Daing City, Su
21:17:01Chonqing did not go down to meet him.
21:17:03Besides, almost 3 years have passed,
21:17:06people have long forgotten about him.
21:17:08Chapter 1529. Flame profound techniques.
21:17:11Firecrow Chi Cultivation Method Chapter
21:17:141529 Flame Profound Techniques. Firecrow
21:17:18Chi Cultivation Method. The giant flying
21:17:20sword gently inserted into the flying
21:17:22fairy. Such Chonqing followed the steps
21:17:25and walked step by step onto the street
21:17:27of the scattered cultivator market. I
21:17:29vaguely remember that when I left last
21:17:31time, something very serious seemed to
21:17:33have happened deep in the black forest
21:17:35outside Daing City. Returning now, I
21:17:37find the place has returned to its
21:17:39former state with pedestrians strolling
21:17:41leisurely and the atmosphere relatively
21:17:43relaxed without the slightest sense of
21:17:46tension. Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow
21:17:48thinking to himself, "It seems the
21:17:50matter is resolved." Although they had
21:17:52already arrived in Daing City and were
21:17:54even in the Sono market, but as always,
21:17:57the first thing to do upon landing was
21:17:59to find an inn to disguise myself and
21:18:01then investigate the market price of
21:18:03spiritual rice for the day. After
21:18:05confirming everything is correct, we
21:18:07will meet with the Sun family soon. Near
21:18:09the flight fairy, Su Chongqing found an
21:18:11in called Wong Xiang and chose an
21:18:13ordinary room on the left side of the
21:18:15second floor. One low-grade spirit stone
21:18:18can last for 3 days. He then hid the
21:18:20azure gourd and replaced it with a small
21:18:22storage bag which was used by the vast
21:18:24majority of independent cultivators.
21:18:26Immediately afterwards, he changed out
21:18:28of the white robes of the immortal sect
21:18:30disciples and put on a fake mustache.
21:18:32Disguised in this way, he quickly
21:18:34transformed from a high-ranking disciple
21:18:36of the immortal sect into an ordinary
21:18:38rogue cultivator with a haggarded look
21:18:40in his eyes, a sight to behold
21:18:42everywhere. Soon, Su Chongqing left the
21:18:45inn and began to visit the surrounding
21:18:47spiritual rice trading points. After
21:18:49inquiring at one shop after another, the
21:18:52price of spirit rice in the scattered
21:18:54cultivator market for today has been
21:18:55confirmed. Epine Lingi comes in three
21:18:58grades: inferior, superior, and premium.
21:19:01The ratio of inferior to inferior
21:19:03products is 1:6. The ratio of
21:19:05highquality to lowquality products is
21:19:071:5. The ratio of top quality items is
21:19:101:3. This means that one low-grade
21:19:13spirit stone can be exchanged for a
21:19:15certain number of kilograms of first
21:19:16grade spirit rice. As for the second
21:19:18grade spirit rice, it has changed
21:19:20compared to the last time I came. It is
21:19:22also categorized into three quality
21:19:24levels: inferior, superior, and
21:19:26excellent. The ratio of inferior to
21:19:29inferior is 1 minute and 1.5 seconds.
21:19:32The ratio of premium to high quality is
21:19:341 minute and 1.4 seconds. The ratio of
21:19:37the best quality to the best quality is
21:19:391 minute and 1.3 seconds. The price of
21:19:42top grade spirit rice produced in second
21:19:44grade spirit fields is higher than
21:19:46before. Such Chongqing stood inside a
21:19:48spirit rice trading point filled with
21:19:50the aroma of rice, thinking to himself,
21:19:52"The price hasn't changed much." After
21:19:55confirming that everything was correct,
21:19:57he still did not rush to meet with the
21:19:59Sun family. Right at this spirit rice
21:20:01trading point, I spent a sum of
21:20:02low-grade spirit stones to buy 500
21:20:04caddies of highquality spirit rice
21:20:06produced from a grade 2 spirit field.
21:20:09Since independent cultivators cannot use
21:20:11their own top quality spiritual rice to
21:20:13make spirit rice wine, they can only buy
21:20:15some highquality spiritual rice from the
21:20:17independent cultivator market along the
21:20:19way to make wine. The prices at the
21:20:21independent cultivator market are
21:20:22cheaper than those at the immortal sect
21:20:24market. And when there are promotions,
21:20:26the more you buy, the more you get as a
21:20:28bonus. After making the purchase, Such
21:20:30Chongqing still didn't go to meet the
21:20:32Sun family. Instead, he went to the
21:20:34nearby Wintergreen Trading House to
21:20:36check out fire tribute cultivation
21:20:38techniques and spells. The female
21:20:40receptionist stepped forward with a
21:20:42smile. What would you like to buy,
21:20:44immortal master? Such Chan waved his
21:20:46hand. I'll come to you if there are any
21:20:48problems. It wasn't his first time here.
21:20:51He knew the specific procedures. He went
21:20:53directly to a mirror where no one was
21:20:55and poured his fire elemental power into
21:20:57it. Suddenly, the mirror emitted a white
21:21:00light. Then lines of text appeared such
21:21:02as monster core, spirit plant,
21:21:05cultivation technique, etc. Such
21:21:08Chonqing clicked on the cultivation
21:21:09method and immediately switched to the
21:21:11spiritual root aspect. The common
21:21:13spiritual roots are metal, wood, water,
21:21:16fire, and earth. There are also other
21:21:18spiritual roots such as ice, lightning,
21:21:21and wind. However, the numbers under the
21:21:24different spiritual roots are all zero.
21:21:26This indicates that there are none,
21:21:28neither low-level nor fragmentaryary.
21:21:30Most of them are still common five
21:21:32element spiritual roots with dozens of
21:21:34books in some cases and more than a
21:21:36dozen in others. Of course, these
21:21:38techniques and spells are all
21:21:40incomplete. Any complete techniques and
21:21:42spells would be auctioned off,
21:21:44attracting fierce bidding. Such
21:21:45Chongqing first glanced at the
21:21:47cultivation techniques and spells within
21:21:49the wood spirit route. Finding that
21:21:51there was no difference from the last
21:21:52time I came, I immediately lost all
21:21:55interest. Therefore, I went back and
21:21:57clicked on the fire spirit route again
21:21:59and immediately eight low-level
21:22:00cultivation techniques and spells and
21:22:02three highle cultivation techniques and
21:22:04spells popped up. Three low-level
21:22:06cultivation techniques. Fragment of the
21:22:09crimson flame technique. Fragments of
21:22:11the fire crow cultivation method.
21:22:13Fragments of earth fire ignition. Eight
21:22:16low-level spells. Fireball technique.
21:22:18Flame shield technique. Blood burning
21:22:20release. Blazing eye technique. Earth
21:22:23fire eruption. Fire serpent bind.
21:22:25Exploding flame hand. Blazing windstep.
21:22:28Two advanced cultivation techniques.
21:22:30Fragments of the true scripture of
21:22:32departing fire. effect refineses the
21:22:35spiritual power of separation fire
21:22:38resulting in extremely high temperatures
21:22:39that are difficult to control.
21:22:41Disadvantages then nurturing the seed
21:22:44chapter is missing which can easily lead
21:22:46to spiritual energy going berserk in the
21:22:48later stages of foundation
21:22:49establishment. Fragment of the nine
21:22:52flames mystic art effect. Nine levels of
21:22:55flame cultivation each with different
21:22:57flame characteristics. Disadvantages.
21:22:59Only the first four layers of red,
21:23:01orange, yellow, and blue remain. The
21:23:04rest are lost. Highle spells. Part one.
21:23:07Fragment of the blazing sun finger.
21:23:09Effect. Extreme high temperature is
21:23:11concentrated at the fingertips.
21:23:13Penetrating defenses. Disadvantage.
21:23:16Lacks the long range technique of finger
21:23:18strength transforms into rainbow. After
21:23:21reading it, Su Chongqing was shocked.
21:23:23These are fire attribute techniques and
21:23:25spells. Although it's a fragment, it
21:23:27looks very impressive. After much
21:23:29deliberation, he purchased the fire crow
21:23:32chi cultivation method, nine flames
21:23:34profound technique, and blazing sun
21:23:36finger. A fragment of a low-level
21:23:38cultivation technique, a fragment of a
21:23:41highle martial arts technique, a
21:23:43fragment of a highle spell. However,
21:23:45although they are all incomplete pieces,
21:23:47the prices are not low, except for the
21:23:50fire crowi cultivation method, which
21:23:52only requires 60 lowgrade spirit stones.
21:23:55The nine flames mystic art and the
21:23:57blazing sun fingered together cost a
21:23:59total of 38 mid-grade spirit stones.
21:24:02Low-level cultivation techniques and
21:24:04spells are only applicable to theqi
21:24:06refining and foundation establishment
21:24:08stages. Advanced cultivation techniques
21:24:10and spells are applicable to the
21:24:12foundation establishment to golden core
21:24:14stages. Even at the nent soul stage, it
21:24:17can still be used with difficulty if
21:24:19there is no good cultivation method.
21:24:21Such Chanqing was extremely excited when
21:24:23he left the Holly Trading House. Only at
21:24:25this moment did he finally realize the
21:24:27benefits of having multiple spiritual
21:24:29roots. While cultivation is faster with
21:24:32a single spiritual route, it is limited
21:24:34to that single spiritual root. However,
21:24:37those with multiple spiritual roots
21:24:38cultivate slowly but can use spells of
21:24:41various attributes. The female
21:24:43receptionist said with a smile, "We
21:24:45respectfully bid farewell to the
21:24:46immortal master and look forward to your
21:24:49next visit. Subsequently, Su Chongqing
21:24:52contacted Sun Pong using a communication
21:24:54talisman. Tell the other party that you
21:24:56have arrived at the Sonichcho market.
21:24:58This time, however, the other party
21:25:00changed the location. Instead of trading
21:25:02at the Sun family mansion, they went to
21:25:04the most bustling street in the
21:25:06scattered cultivator market. Although
21:25:08the location had changed, Such Chongqing
21:25:10was not angry. He guessed it was related
21:25:12to the soonto liquor store. So, he
21:25:14headed toward the agreed upon location.
21:25:16Fortunately, the distance wasn't far,
21:25:18only about a kilometer, and we arrived
21:25:20in no time. Is the Sun family opening a
21:25:23liquor store? I heard that's true. I
21:25:25wonder what it tastes like. This is a
21:25:27liquor store owned by the Sun family, so
21:25:29the liquor must be of good quality.
21:25:31That's true. As soon as Su Chongqing
21:25:34arrived on this street, he heard people
21:25:35around him talking about it, and the
21:25:37content is all related to the Sun
21:25:39family's upcoming liquor store. Chapter
21:25:42153. Savoring the orchid mist tea and
21:25:44obtaining evergreen wine. Chapter 153.
21:25:47Tasting the orchid mist tea and
21:25:49obtaining evergreen wine. The Sun family
21:25:51of Chongqing wine shop did not lie. The
21:25:54wine shop was located on the most
21:25:55bustling street in the loose cultivator
21:25:57market. There was a lot of foot traffic
21:25:59here and both sides were lined with
21:26:01various pill shops and talisman shops.
21:26:03There is even a market for independent
21:26:05cultivators and currently the only
21:26:07restaurant serving spiritual cuisine. It
21:26:09is said that even the golden elixir
21:26:11master Wong, the administrator of Doning
21:26:14City, would occasionally come here for a
21:26:16meal. This is why this street has become
21:26:18the most prosperous and bustling street
21:26:20in the entire Sono market with people
21:26:22coming and going everyday, and the flow
21:26:24of customers is overwhelming. Such
21:26:26Chonqing was also quite surprised. It's
21:26:28just a wine shop, yet the Sun family
21:26:30takes it so seriously. The shop wasn't
21:26:33open yet. There wasn't even a signboard,
21:26:35just a layer of red cloth hanging there.
21:26:37After glancing at it a few times, Su
21:26:39Chongqing got up and walked towards the
21:26:41tea house directly opposite. I made an
21:26:43appointment with Sun Pong to meet at a
21:26:45tea house called Panchchan. As soon as I
21:26:48stepped across the threshold, a male
21:26:50waiter approached and asked, "Sir, are
21:26:52you drinking tea alone or have you made
21:26:54an appointment with a friend?" Su
21:26:56Chongqing glanced at the stairwell and
21:26:57said, "I have an appointment with
21:26:59someone on the top floor." The waiter
21:27:01suddenly realized, "You must be the
21:27:03distinguished guest that a mortal master
21:27:05son has been waiting for." Mm. Such Chan
21:27:08nodded slightly. The waiter's smile
21:27:10widened as he bowed and led the way.
21:27:12Please follow me. Immortal Master Son
21:27:14instructed that he must personally take
21:27:16you to the top floor. Su Chongqing then
21:27:19followed behind the other person and
21:27:21soon arrived at the stairwell, climbing
21:27:22the steps one by one. The tea house has
21:27:25three floors. The first floor is mostly
21:27:27populated by ordinary people who have
21:27:29some connection with cultivators. Of
21:27:32course, this ordinary does not refer to
21:27:34a truly ordinary person. Instead, they
21:27:37are wealthy businessmen, rich people,
21:27:39and those with some background. The tea
21:27:41these people were drinking was a fairly
21:27:43ordinary type of lingune tea. The tea
21:27:45leaves are made by frying a mixture of
21:27:47low-grade spiritual plant, ching grass,
21:27:49and ordinary tea. It has a rather mild
21:27:52calming effect. It can slightly relieve
21:27:54fatigue. It's more invigorating than
21:27:56ordinary tea. Long-term consumption can
21:27:58also slightly improve physical
21:28:00condition. The second floor, however, is
21:28:03mostly occupied by true cultivators.
21:28:05Although most of the people inside are
21:28:07independent cultivators, they are
21:28:09already distinguished from the ordinary
21:28:10people on the first floor. The tea we
21:28:13drank was called bloodvine tea, a blood
21:28:15vine that grows after being contaminated
21:28:17with the blood of a demonic beast. The
21:28:19effects of lingune tea are the same as
21:28:21those of Schweing tea. It has a slightly
21:28:24bloody taste and can temporarily boost
21:28:26blood circulation. As for the third
21:28:28floor, only cultivators, members of
21:28:30cultivation families or disciples of
21:28:33immortal sects who are famous throughout
21:28:34Daing City are allowed to go up there.
21:28:37The tea we drink has a very beautiful
21:28:39name, orchid mist tea. It is made by
21:28:42stir frying a rare and precious herb,
21:28:44Ganiraa by color. When brewed, it
21:28:47produces a light mist that creates a
21:28:49beautiful visual effect. It not only has
21:28:51the same effects as ling yun tea and
21:28:53shuitting tea, but also it is said that
21:28:56long-term consumption can also increase
21:28:58spiritual power. However, it is
21:29:00expensive. A pot of tea costs one
21:29:02mid-grade spirit stone led by the waiter
21:29:05Sue Chongqing went up to the third
21:29:06floor. Here for private rooms are
21:29:09divided according to the categories of
21:29:10A, B, C, and D. Each private room has a
21:29:14window offering a view of the blue sky
21:29:16and white clouds outside with a very
21:29:18beautiful view. The waiter stood in
21:29:20front of the private room and grinned.
21:29:22This immortal master, immortal master
21:29:24son is inside. Su Chongqing said
21:29:27expressionlessly. Thank you for your
21:29:29hard work. Upon hearing this, the waiter
21:29:31hurriedly waved his hand excitedly. It's
21:29:34no trouble at all. It's my greatest
21:29:36honor to be able to guide the immortal.
21:29:38Then he gently knocked on the door of
21:29:40the private room a few times. Knock,
21:29:42knock, knock. There's a reason why you
21:29:44knock on the door. I need to get this
21:29:46done quickly. Three bows are a sign of
21:29:48respect. The ninth is the most
21:29:50honorable. After knocking, the waiter
21:29:52whispered inside. "Master son, your
21:29:54distinguished guest has arrived." Almost
21:29:57instantly, the tightly closed door
21:29:59creaked open. There was only one person
21:30:01inside, and that was Sun Pong, whom he
21:30:04hadn't seen for a month. Upon seeing Su
21:30:06Chongqing in disguise, his eyes lit up
21:30:09with excitement. Su Chongqing squinted,
21:30:11looked the other person up and down, and
21:30:13teased, "You seem to have gained weight
21:30:15in the month. I haven't seen you.
21:30:17Sunpong laughed heartily. Huh? I have to
21:30:19thank fellow Dais Kai for this. Back
21:30:22then, if it weren't for the top grade
21:30:23spirit rice produced by the second grade
21:30:25spirit fields, he wouldn't have been
21:30:27able to marry Leana because the Sun
21:30:29family got to know Su Chongqing and
21:30:32received a stable supply of top quality
21:30:34spiritual rice every month. The Lelay
21:30:36family thought the Sun family was worth
21:30:38cooperating with, which is why they were
21:30:39able to propose marriage and get married
21:30:41smoothly, eat a lot, and be happy. How
21:30:44could I not gain weight? Su Chongqing
21:30:46smiled and then stepped into the B-class
21:30:48private room. Sun Pong shouted at the
21:30:51waiter. Waiter, bring me the best.
21:30:53Yulan, Miss T. All right, immortal
21:30:55master son, please wait a moment. Upon
21:30:58hearing this, the waiter nodded
21:30:59vigorously and then turned and ran
21:31:02downstairs. After he left, Sun Pong
21:31:04closed the door to the private room and
21:31:06then turned around to look. They noticed
21:31:08that Su Chongqing wasn't sitting down
21:31:10but standing by the window looking at
21:31:12the liquor store directly below. As Sun
21:31:15Pong stepped forward, he chuckled and
21:31:17said, "Fellow Dowist Kai, this shop was
21:31:19poached from my father-in-law. Are you
21:31:21satisfied?" Su Chongqing nodded
21:31:24slightly. The location is good and the
21:31:26position is also good. Sun Pong came to
21:31:29his side and the two stood side by side.
21:31:31He continued, "Everything is ready.
21:31:33We're<unk> just waiting for your Lingi
21:31:35wine and the name of the wine shop. Su
21:31:37Chongqing pondered for a moment. A name,
21:31:39huh? Sun Pong said earnestly. Although
21:31:42we are in a cooperative relationship and
21:31:44we are the ones who provide the money
21:31:46and effort, we are ultimately selling
21:31:48your Lingi wine. So, you will definitely
21:31:50have to come up with the name yourself.
21:31:52Such Choning thought for a moment and
21:31:54said, "Let's call it Chonqing Wine
21:31:55Shop." Sun Pong said, "Oh." And asked
21:31:58with considerable curiosity, "What's the
21:32:00meaning of the name?" Su Chongqing
21:32:03replied, "I hope this liquor store can
21:32:05continue to operate." Sunpong nodded
21:32:07vigorously. Okay, I'll arrange it right
21:32:09away. Do you have any requirements
21:32:11regarding the font, brushstrokes, or
21:32:13anything like that? Su Chongqing waved
21:32:16his hand and said, "It doesn't matter.
21:32:18You can decide for yourselves." Upon
21:32:20hearing this, Sun Pong took out his
21:32:22communication talisman without
21:32:24hesitation. Who was notified? Father
21:32:26Sunro, tell him the good news first and
21:32:29then let him find someone to handle it.
21:32:31After all, experience counts. Just then,
21:32:34there was a knocking sound at the door.
21:32:36Sun Pong put away the communication
21:32:37talisman and then went forward to open
21:32:39the door. Several people were standing
21:32:41outside the door, not just the waiter
21:32:43from earlier. These people were all
21:32:45holding something in their hands, which
21:32:47looked like they were all for making
21:32:48tea, such as charcoal stoves, seladone
21:32:51teapotss, bamboo, and with tea scoops,
21:32:53and pine patterned cups. Soon, all the
21:32:56things needed for making tea were placed
21:32:58on the table. Especially the waiter who
21:33:00led the way was carrying an exquisite
21:33:02blue wooden box. Even before it was
21:33:04opened, a faint yet alluring fragrance
21:33:06wafted out. Once opened, a refreshing
21:33:09aroma bursts forth. Sun Prung stepped
21:33:11forward to examine it carefully. The tea
21:33:14leaves are dark in color, slightly dry,
21:33:16and curled up like green snails. Master
21:33:19Son, this is the tea you requested for
21:33:21the orchid mist tea. Yes, that's right.
21:33:23It really works. Then shall I serve you?
21:33:26No, I want to personally brew the tea
21:33:28for fellow Daist Kai. Chapter 154, The
21:33:32Great Demon Rolling Dragon. The current
21:33:34state of the Black Forest. Chapter 154.
21:33:37The Great Demon Rolling Dragon. The
21:33:39current state of the Black Forest. Sun
21:33:41Pong washed his hands with clear spring
21:33:43water to remove impurities. Next, select
21:33:46the appropriate teapot and teacups for
21:33:48brewing. The pot is a seladone pot. The
21:33:50cup is a pine pattern cup. Then I picked
21:33:53up the bamboo tea scoop and measured out
21:33:55seven leaves and one bud of the Yulan
21:33:57mist tea from the blue wooden box. Too
21:33:59little and the taste won't be good. Too
21:34:02much, the flavor is too strong. Then
21:34:04place the seven leaves and one bud into
21:34:06a seladone pot and add hot water at 80°
21:34:10C. But it only lasted 3 seconds before
21:34:12Sun Pong immediately picked it up,
21:34:15poured out the hot water from the
21:34:16kettle, and then poured in the hot water
21:34:18a second time. Gradually, the tea leaves
21:34:20unfurled inside. After the tea was
21:34:23brewed, Sun Pong poured the first brew
21:34:25into another small cup. Then he stood up
21:34:27holding the teapot in one hand and
21:34:29supporting the body of the pot with the
21:34:31other and poured the second brew into
21:34:33the pine patterned cup in front of Su
21:34:35Chongqing. It was the third and final
21:34:37infusion before it was my turn. Such
21:34:39Chanqing looked at the fragrant orchid
21:34:41mist tea and noticed that although the
21:34:43tea leaves were dark in color, the brood
21:34:45tea was of bluish green color with fine
21:34:47spiritual energy rising like mist. Sun
21:34:51Pong extended his hand and said, "Fellow
21:34:53Dowist Kai, please." Upon hearing this,
21:34:56Su Chongqing picked up the teacup in
21:34:58front of him and held it below his nose.
21:35:00No wonder this tea can sell for a
21:35:02mid-grade spirit stone per pot. The
21:35:04first whiff of its delicate fragrance.
21:35:06Let's smell the fragrance of orchids
21:35:08again. A deep sniff reveals a sweet
21:35:10aftertaste. Press your tongue against
21:35:12the roof of your mouth and sip slowly.
21:35:14When you drink it, it tastes quite sour
21:35:17and astringent, and your tongue feels
21:35:19slightly numb. But this is quickly
21:35:20diluted by a refreshing sweetness. When
21:35:23swallowed, it feels like a warm floral
21:35:25scented stream has slid down the throat,
21:35:27leaving a faint, pleasant fragrance.
21:35:30After about two or three breaths, a
21:35:32sweet honey-like taste suddenly welled
21:35:34up in my mouth. The spiritual energy
21:35:37surged within my abdomen, making me feel
21:35:39completely refreshed. Su Choning<unk>s
21:35:41eyes lit up. Excellent tea. Sun Pong
21:35:44breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled.
21:35:46If fellow Dao is Kai likes it, take one
21:35:49gene when you leave. And so the two sip
21:35:52tea and chatted casually. Unlike usual,
21:35:54the transaction didn't happen
21:35:56immediately. More leisurely, more
21:35:58relaxed. When does this liquor store
21:36:00open? It should be soon. I'd really like
21:36:02to try the wine sold by the Sun family
21:36:05downstairs. There was a lot of
21:36:06discussion. Such Chonqing put down his
21:36:08teacup and said half jokingly, "Your Sun
21:36:11family has a pretty good reputation."
21:36:13Son Pong grinned. "Actually, these are
21:36:16all people we hired with spirit stones.
21:36:18They started hyping it up a few days
21:36:20ago, and now we're just waiting for you
21:36:21to come and put the spirit rice wine on
21:36:23the shelves." Such Chanqing was not
21:36:26surprised at all upon hearing this. He
21:36:28had already noticed something a miss
21:36:29when he arrived on this street and stood
21:36:31near the shops. How can a liquor store
21:36:33that hasn't even officially opened for
21:36:35business yet and hasn't sold a single
21:36:37pound of liquor attract so many
21:36:39customers to stop by and even discuss
21:36:41and pay attention to it? There's
21:36:43obviously something fishy going on here.
21:36:45Without further ado, Su Chongqing took
21:36:47out 500 gene of top grade spirit rice
21:36:49and 500 gene of highquality spirit rice
21:36:52wine that he had prepared in advance
21:36:53from his small storage bag. Sunpong saw
21:36:56this and his eyes lit up. Both spirit
21:36:58rice and spirit rice wine are
21:37:00necessities for cultivating immortality.
21:37:02To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to
21:37:04sell it to independent cultivators
21:37:06outside. There was nothing they could
21:37:08do. Such Chanqing wanted to open a
21:37:10liquor store, so they had no choice but
21:37:12to comply. Then, Sunpong took out the
21:37:14spirit stones he had used to buy the
21:37:16spirit rice. Last time, it was five
21:37:18mid-grade spirit stones. This time,
21:37:20there are also five. Seeing this, Su
21:37:23Chongqing said nothing. Although the
21:37:25ratio of top grade spiritual rise
21:37:27produced in the second grade spiritual
21:37:28fields today is 1 minute and 1.2
21:37:31seconds, but 500 gene only sold for 420
21:37:35lowgrade spirit stones, which is
21:37:37equivalent to four mid-grade spirit
21:37:39stones. They gave us five coins, which
21:37:41is already higher than the market price
21:37:43in the market for independent
21:37:44cultivators. As for the spirit rice
21:37:46wine, there's no need to rush to pay for
21:37:48it. Because the two parties are in a
21:37:51cooperative relationship, they will
21:37:52split the profits after the Lingi wine
21:37:54is sold. For the first 6 months, Su
21:37:57Chongqing held 60% of the shares while
21:37:59the Sun family held 40%. 6 months later,
21:38:02regardless of whether business was good
21:38:04or bad, Su Chongqing owned 70% and the
21:38:07Sun family owned 30%. This was all
21:38:10agreed upon by both parties during the
21:38:12last visit. After the transaction was
21:38:14completed, the two continued to enjoy
21:38:16tea and chat. It wasn't until almost
21:38:19evening that Su Chongqing bid farewell
21:38:21to Sun Pong and slowly left Panchchan
21:38:23Tea House with a pound of Yulan Wua tea
21:38:25leaves. Where to go? Of course, it's
21:38:28about drinking with cortisans. He came
21:38:30to the Sono market mainly to relax
21:38:32besides trading. I drank quite a bit of
21:38:34tea that afternoon and my stomach was
21:38:36rumbling as I walked. It was perfect to
21:38:38take a walk while refining the spiritual
21:38:40energy within. Ouch. This is incredible.
21:38:43A great demon has been slain. another
21:38:46500-year-old rolling dragon. Such
21:38:48Chonqing was walking towards the
21:38:50invitation fragrance pavilion when he
21:38:52suddenly noticed that the people around
21:38:54him were rushing to the other side like
21:38:55madmen, listening to the words of those
21:38:57around me and seeing their excited
21:38:59expressions. After thinking it over, Su
21:39:02Chongqing decided to follow them. As
21:39:04long as you don't leave the city, it's
21:39:06fine. Before long, a fairly spacious
21:39:08square appeared ahead. However, it was
21:39:11filled with an extremely complex smell.
21:39:13If I had to describe it, it's like a
21:39:15rotten egg being struck by lightning and
21:39:17scorched. The nauseating smell spread
21:39:19outwards from the square. Many ordinary
21:39:22people vomit immediately upon smelling
21:39:24this odor. Many cultivators also looked
21:39:26quite grim. Even so, no one left. Every
21:39:29single one of them was looking towards
21:39:31the center of the square. Seeing the
21:39:33crowds of people packed together, Su
21:39:35Chongqing stomped his right foot and
21:39:37leaped into the air, landing directly on
21:39:39the roof of a nearby high-rise building.
21:39:41There are quite a few people who share
21:39:43his thoughts and behaviors. Then
21:39:45everyone looked towards the center of
21:39:46the square. There were about 10 people
21:39:48standing inside, all of them independent
21:39:51cultivators. Although they wore
21:39:52different clothes, they all had a tiger
21:39:54descending a mountain embroidered on
21:39:56their chests. They are the famous
21:39:58descending tiger demon hunting team of
21:40:00Daing City. Currently ranked second.
21:40:03Their strength is self-evident. Behind
21:40:05the dozen or so people lay a rolling
21:40:07earth yellow dragon at least 10 ft long.
21:40:10How long is Ten Jang? It is about 33 m.
21:40:13Even though this rolling dragon was dead
21:40:15beyond any doubt, it still exuded a
21:40:18strong and terrifying aura. From the
21:40:20current perspective, there are many
21:40:22injuries and they are all very serious.
21:40:24He suffered a severe head injury. There
21:40:26was a penetrating wound in his left eye
21:40:28and the eye socket was ruptured with
21:40:30thick yellow liquid flowing out. His jaw
21:40:33was torn apart as if a sharp arrow had
21:40:35pierced his throat diagonally upwards,
21:40:38tearing his mouth into a twisted,
21:40:39crooked mouth and revealing jagged,
21:40:42broken teeth. His torso was covered in
21:40:44wounds. The area 7 in from the ground
21:40:46was charred black, clearly a mark left
21:40:49by a lightning attracting talisman. The
21:40:51hard outer skin had cracked open,
21:40:53revealing the bluish purple necrotic
21:40:55muscle beneath. The tail was almost
21:40:57completely severed with only a small
21:40:59amount of muscle connecting it. The
21:41:01vertebrae were cracked inch by inch, as
21:41:03if they had been crushed by a heavy
21:41:05object. What flowed out was not blood,
21:41:07but a yellowish brown mud. Su
21:41:09Chongqing<unk>s pupils contracted
21:41:11slightly as he watched. This is the
21:41:13rolling dragon. This was the first time
21:41:15he had ever seen a monster so close up.
21:41:17Moreover, it seems to be a great demon
21:41:19that is 500 years old. It definitely
21:41:22feels different from the feeling brought
21:41:23by spirit beasts. At this moment, a man
21:41:26on the other rooftop spoke up. This is
21:41:28the third rolling dragon to emerge from
21:41:30that place in the past 6 months. Upon
21:41:33hearing this, a female cultivator beside
21:41:35her said with a grave expression. To
21:41:37this day, Huang Yuan Hua<unk>s cave has
21:41:39not been fully explored. And it seems
21:41:41that something even more terrifying is
21:41:44hidden deep within it. Chapter 155.
21:41:46Auctioning the rolling dragon. Taking
21:41:48down the big stomach. Chapter 155.
21:41:51Auctioning the rolling dragon. Taking
21:41:53down the big stomach. Listening to the
21:41:55surrounding discussions, Su Chongqing
21:41:57raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself,
21:41:59"It's related to that earth spirit root
21:42:01golden core, Huang Yuan Hua again. Just
21:42:04who is this person, and what is hidden
21:42:05in his cave? It's absolutely impossible
21:42:08for you not to be curious, but he
21:42:10wouldn't leave Dongqing City out of
21:42:12curiosity, much less venture deep into
21:42:14the black forest. For someone at the
21:42:16foundation establishment stage to go to
21:42:18a place full of monsters seems
21:42:19adventurous, but in reality, it's
21:42:21suicide. Moreover, the matter of Huang
21:42:24Yu and Hua's cave dwelling has been
21:42:25going on for almost half a year. There
21:42:28must be a reason why so many monster
21:42:29hunting teams haven't been able to
21:42:31explore it all. We'll see what this
21:42:33tiger hunting team is planning. This is
21:42:35the rolling dragon. So long. No wonder
21:42:38it's a 500year-old demon. This is the
21:42:40third one already. I wonder how many
21:42:42more are in that cave. The onlookers
21:42:44were either independent cultivators or
21:42:46ordinary people. They were all pointing
21:42:49and commenting on the rolling dragon.
21:42:51Although Donging City has always been
21:42:53known for its demon hunting, most of the
21:42:55time no one brings demons or even their
21:42:57corpses into the city, the fact that the
21:42:59tiger hunting team is doing this now is
21:43:02definitely attracting everyone's
21:43:03attention. And it must be admitted that
21:43:05they did succeed. It even caused a
21:43:07sensation with at least several thousand
21:43:09people coming to watch. At this moment,
21:43:12the current captain of the mountain
21:43:13tiger demon hunting team, a burly man
21:43:16covered in muddy blood from the rolling
21:43:17dragon, stepped forward. His sharp gaze
21:43:20swept over everyone in all directions.
21:43:22It seemed as if they wanted to clearly
21:43:24see everyone's reactions, expressions,
21:43:26and eyes. Then the man said loudly,
21:43:30"Everyone, I am the captain of the
21:43:31mountain tiger demon hunting team, and
21:43:33my name is Wanima." There are two
21:43:36reasons why I brought in the corpse of
21:43:37this rolling dragon. First, let everyone
21:43:40broaden their horizons. Second, conduct
21:43:42a public auction. Upon hearing this,
21:43:45many people gasped in shock. In Doning
21:43:47City, almost everyone who wants to hold
21:43:49an auction chooses the city's only
21:43:51auction house, Daing auction house. The
21:43:54manager behind it is none other than the
21:43:56famous golden elixir master Wong. He is
21:43:58also the owner of the entire Daing city,
21:44:01the Sonichcho market, and the Yaoang
21:44:03Pavilion. Although Wong Tienba and his
21:44:05group did not break any rules, their
21:44:07actions gave people the feeling of
21:44:09overstepping their bounds. In an
21:44:11instant, many people's expressions
21:44:13changed, especially their eyes, which
21:44:15were filled with complex emotions.
21:44:18Everyone was wondering, "Isn't Wong
21:44:19Tinba afraid of angering Master Wong?"
21:44:22Compared to the surprise, shock, and
21:44:24disbelief of those around him, Su
21:44:26Chongqing, as an outsider, didn't react
21:44:29much, and even seemed somewhat
21:44:30expectant. Last time at the auction
21:44:32house, I spent 33 mid-grade spirit
21:44:35stones to acquire the seeds of five rare
21:44:37spirit plants, which came from the
21:44:39stomach of the rolling dragon. Perhaps
21:44:41this time there will be some gains as
21:44:43well. Soon, Wong Tinba launched a public
21:44:46auction, loudly announcing, "Next, we
21:44:48will auction off everything that can be
21:44:50separated from this 500-year-old rolling
21:44:52dragon, including its skin, flesh,
21:44:55bones, spinal cord, essence, blood,
21:44:58stomach, core parts, etc. If you are
21:45:01interested, please feel free to
21:45:02participate. The first thing I need to
21:45:04buy for the camera is leather. Don't be
21:45:06fooled by its current pitiful appearance
21:45:09covered in wounds. In reality, the skin
21:45:11of great demons is very tough,
21:45:14especially the rolling dragon, which
21:45:16contains a trace of earth energy. So, it
21:45:18has no problem in terms of defense.
21:45:20Because there are so many people, quite
21:45:22a few are interested in this. Most of
21:45:24them have the metal elemental route, and
21:45:26there are several blacksmiths among
21:45:27them. Soon, someone successfully
21:45:29acquired the tough hide of the rolling
21:45:31dragon for 10 mid-grade spirit stones.
21:45:33As time passed, all the remaining meat,
21:45:36bones, and spinal cord were sold. After
21:45:39all, it is part of a 500-year-old demon.
21:45:41So, even if the price is a bit high,
21:45:43there will still be people who buy it.
21:45:45Soon, it will be the turn of the essence
21:45:47and blood. This item is actually more
21:45:49valuable and rarer than the previous
21:45:51one. Therefore, many people looked on
21:45:53with anticipation. Then Wong Tinba, the
21:45:56captain of the tiger hunting team, used
21:45:58a sharp blade to cut open the inside of
21:46:00the rolling dragon in front of everyone,
21:46:02took out a yellowish brown crystal, and
21:46:04shouted again. The hard essence of the
21:46:07rolling dragon starting bid is 10
21:46:09mid-grade spirit stones, and each bid
21:46:11cannot be lower than one mid-grade
21:46:13spirit stone. Su Chongqing narrowed his
21:46:16eyes. No wonder it's called the rolling
21:46:18dragon. Even its heart's essence is so
21:46:20disgusting. However, the essence and
21:46:23blood of any great demon will never lack
21:46:25an audience. It can be used for alchemy,
21:46:27talisman making, and weapon crafting.
21:46:30Why? Because it has attributes. The
21:46:32rolling dragon is of the earth element,
21:46:34and its heart essence is also of the
21:46:36earth element, even more so. Sure
21:46:38enough, the life essence of this rolling
21:46:40dragon immediately attracted a frenzy of
21:46:43snatching. The number of participants
21:46:45exceeded the total number of previous
21:46:47participants, making the competition
21:46:49extremely fierce. The price skyrocketed
21:46:51from 11 mid-grade spirit stones to 33.
21:46:54Moreover, it continues to rise, showing
21:46:57a strong trend of breaking through 50.
21:46:59Such Chonqing clicked his tongue in
21:47:01amazement. Isn't it said that rogue
21:47:03cultivators are very poor? In the end,
21:47:05this earthy yellow crystallin dragon
21:47:08essence blood was acquired by a
21:47:09well-known male alchemist in the loose
21:47:11cultivator market for 55 mgrade spirit
21:47:14stones. Finally, it was Su
21:47:16Chongqing<unk>s turn to look at the
21:47:17stomach sack, which he was most
21:47:19interested in. Last time, five seeds of
21:47:21rare spiritual plants were extracted
21:47:23from it. One of the green gourds even
21:47:25mutated, resulting in a huge profit.
21:47:28Wong Tienba pulled out the stomach of
21:47:30the rolling dragon, and filthy mud
21:47:32flowed down his hands, filling the air
21:47:34with an even more pungent stench. he
21:47:37said in a deep voice. The stomach of the
21:47:39rolling dragon is said to be used to
21:47:41refine artifacts and make them into
21:47:43storage spirit artifacts. The starting
21:47:45bid is five mid-grade spirit stones, and
21:47:48each bid must be at least one mid-grade
21:47:50spirit stone. Six, seven, eight.
21:47:54Although not many people are interested
21:47:55in this, quite a few are willing to take
21:47:57the gamble, the bids were simply
21:47:59increased one by one each time. This is
21:48:01done to save costs. Although Su
21:48:03Chongqing was interested, he did not
21:48:05speak immediately, but planned to wait.
21:48:08Let's see how far these bidding guys
21:48:09will push the stomach to. Before long,
21:48:11they had accumulated 10 mid-grade spirit
21:48:13stones. Seeing that the price increase
21:48:16was not significant and the number of
21:48:17bidders was decreasing, Wong Tinba
21:48:20frowned and reminded everyone again,
21:48:22"Everyone, as I just said, this thing
21:48:24can be used to refine storage items, and
21:48:27its defensive capabilities are
21:48:28absolutely no problem." Even so, the
21:48:31number of people bidding did not
21:48:32increase by many. Although this thing
21:48:34can indeed be used to craft storage
21:48:36items. The problem is it's too ugly.
21:48:38Moreover, it emitted a disgusting fishy
21:48:41odor. Using this as a storage item would
21:48:43probably make me a laughingstock.
21:48:45Finally, after a difficult upgrade to 15
21:48:48mid-grade spirit stones, the
21:48:50conversation went cold. Seeing this, Su
21:48:52Chonqing knew it was his turn to act and
21:48:54immediately said, "16." After a few
21:48:57seconds, someone finally placed a bid.
21:49:0017. Su Chongqing said expressionlessly.
21:49:0318. The person who had just bid suddenly
21:49:05turned grim and said angrily, "Such an
21:49:08ugly thing, and someone actually dared
21:49:10to snatch it. You're ruthless. I don't
21:49:12want it." Chapter 156. A battle of wits
21:49:15over the core area. Two old men's verbal
21:49:18fight. Chapter 156. Fighting for the
21:49:20core part. Two old men's curse amidst
21:49:22the tiger hunting team. A charming young
21:49:25woman brought over the stomach of the
21:49:26rolling dragon with a friendly smile and
21:49:28said softly, "Fellow Daist, this is what
21:49:31you bid for." Su Chongqing<unk>s gaze
21:49:33lingered on the other person for a few
21:49:35seconds before he reached out and took
21:49:37the item. At the same time, he
21:49:39expressionlessly took out 18 mid-grade
21:49:41spirit stones and handed them to the
21:49:43other person. Having obtained the spirit
21:49:45stone, the charming young woman smiled
21:49:47sweetly, winked provocatively, then
21:49:50turned and leaped, traversing dozens of
21:49:52meters across the rooftop, quickly
21:49:54returning to the demon hunting team of
21:49:56the tiger descending the mountain. The
21:49:58auction then continued. What follows is
21:50:00even more intriguing than the skin,
21:50:02flesh, bones, spinal cord, semen, and
21:50:05stomach, and many people are eagerly
21:50:07anticipating it. What the core part of
21:50:10the rolling dragon? Each monster has one
21:50:12or more core parts. They possess
21:50:14powerful effects and are closely related
21:50:16to various attributes. The longer it
21:50:19exists, the higher its value. Since the
21:50:21rolling dragon is an earth element item,
21:50:23the core part of this item is also an
21:50:25earth element item. Is it coming? We've
21:50:28waited so long. Isn't it all for this
21:50:30core component? With it, I can try to
21:50:32obtain the golden elixir of moral
21:50:34character. Many people, especially
21:50:36independent practitioners, are eager to
21:50:38try their hand at it. To break through
21:50:40from the foundation establishment stage
21:50:42to the golden core stage, one almost
21:50:44always needs to use the core parts of a
21:50:47demon. Therefore, the rogue cultivators
21:50:49with earth spirit roots who were stuck
21:50:51at this stage were very excited. This
21:50:53was the first time Su Chongqing had seen
21:50:55the core of the rolling dragon. So, he
21:50:57stared at it curiously. Soon, Wong
21:50:59Tianba, the burly captain of the tiger
21:51:01hunting team, took out a palmsized
21:51:03yellow crystal from his storage bag and
21:51:05held it above his head with both hands.
21:51:07Suddenly, a crisp crack sound came from
21:51:10the ground beneath my feet. Centered on
21:51:12people, cracks appear like a spiderweb.
21:51:15Although it looks like a crystal, it is
21:51:16actually a scale. Even the rolling
21:51:18dragon, a great demon who has lived for
21:51:21500 years, only has one piece. The
21:51:24scales resemble yellow crystals,
21:51:26gleaming like yellow sapphires under the
21:51:28sunlight. A rich earthy aura permeated
21:51:31the air, instantly making the air,
21:51:33atmosphere, and overall feeling of the
21:51:35square feel substantial and weighty.
21:51:38Those who are close to you seem to be
21:51:39wearing heavy shackles. The response has
21:51:42become sluggish. The ground became
21:51:44muddy. Su Chongqing stared wideeyed.
21:51:46This is the core part of the rolling
21:51:48dragon. Immediately, Wong Tinba shouted,
21:51:51"This is the core part of the rolling
21:51:53earth dragon which has been accumulated
21:51:55over hundreds of years. It is called the
21:51:57filthy earth scale. It contains a rich
21:52:00earth spirit and even a trace of earth
21:52:02energy. It is not only extremely hard
21:52:04but also weighs several thousand kg.
21:52:07It's finally here. Many people were
21:52:09thrilled. The real show is just
21:52:11beginning. Although the vast majority of
21:52:13people were just watching and enjoying
21:52:15the spectacle, but those who truly
21:52:17understand the industry or those who
21:52:19have a genuine need for it have long
21:52:20been unable to resist. Hearing the
21:52:23whispers around him, Wong Tinba's lips
21:52:25curled into a smug smile. He then
21:52:27announced the bidding for the core part.
21:52:29The starting price is 100 mid-grade
21:52:31spirit stones, and each bid must be at
21:52:34least 10 mid-grade spirit stones. 130,
21:52:38150, 200. Compared to now, what happened
21:52:41just now is nothing. Previously, the
21:52:43most I had was only a few dozen
21:52:45mid-grade spirit stones. Nowadays, the
21:52:48asking price is 10 coins or even more.
21:52:50Soon the price of impure earth scale
21:52:53exceeded 500 mid-grade spirit stones.
21:52:56This is clearly a hurdle or a watershed
21:52:58moment. The number of bidders
21:53:00immediately half, but the price
21:53:02continued to rise. If he had to describe
21:53:04it in two words, Su Chongqing would say
21:53:07crazy. As you can see, many of the
21:53:09people still bidding now are in their
21:53:1170s or 80s. If nothing unexpected
21:53:13happens, he should have been stuck in
21:53:15the foundation establishment stage for
21:53:17many years. If they cannot break through
21:53:19to the golden core stage, they will not
21:53:21live for more than a few years.
21:53:23Therefore, they all chose to take a
21:53:24gamble here. Now, it all comes down to
21:53:26who has more savings and more spirit
21:53:28stones in their storage bag. The further
21:53:30along the bidding process goes, the
21:53:32fewer people participate. However, at
21:53:35the same time, prices are getting higher
21:53:37and higher. It was 500 mid-grade spirit
21:53:39stones a moment ago, but now it has
21:53:41soared to 700. Although no one is
21:53:44bidding in tens of dollars anymore, but
21:53:46accumulating 10 at a time is still quite
21:53:48terrifying. It's likely that many
21:53:50independent cultivators have emptied
21:53:52their life savings. Such Chongqing, who
21:53:54was standing on the roof, was stunned by
21:53:56this scene. It's unclear how much time
21:53:58passed, but eventually only two people
21:54:01remained, still persevering. No, to be
21:54:04precise, they were two elderly people.
21:54:06Old Lu, you're already buried in the
21:54:08ground. Why continue? You son of a
21:54:10Wong Xiang, aren't you the same?
21:54:13It really is different. I'm 3 years
21:54:15younger than you. You go to hell. No
21:54:17way. You're already in such a hurry. Oh
21:54:19dear. The two old rogue cultivators, one
21:54:22directly and angrily cursed. The other
21:54:25spoke in a sarcastic tone. Logically
21:54:27speaking, one shouldn't laugh in such a
21:54:29serious setting. But Su Chonqing and
21:54:32everyone else present couldn't help but
21:54:33laugh. It was really interesting to
21:54:35listen to the two of them arguing back
21:54:37and forth. Su Chongqing looked to his
21:54:39right and saw a kind old man wearing a
21:54:41blue robe. His eyebrows and hair have
21:54:43turned white. Behind him stood several
21:54:46younger people who were covering their
21:54:47faces. This man was Wong Xiang, who had
21:54:50been relentlessly abused by Lu Laay.
21:54:52Facing his furious nemesis, Wong Xiang
21:54:55spoke sarcastically while making faces.
21:54:57In short, do whatever makes the other
21:54:59person angry. It's like they're saying,
21:55:01"If you don't mess with me, I'll make
21:55:03you furious." However, although old Lu
21:55:06was angry, he didn't dare to make a
21:55:08move. Not to mention, this is Donging
21:55:10City, which is under the control of the
21:55:12Golden Core King. If you act recklessly,
21:55:15it will definitely cause dissatisfaction
21:55:17from the other party and may even result
21:55:19in punishment. Most importantly, he is
21:55:21old and won't live for many more years.
21:55:24He possesses the foundation building
21:55:25stage, but all aspects of his abilities
21:55:27are declining and deteriorating. Now, he
21:55:30only has half the strength he had at his
21:55:32peak. If a fight were to break out, he
21:55:34might not be a match for his archeneemy,
21:55:36Wong Xiang. There's nothing we can do.
21:55:38She's definitely 3 years younger. This
21:55:41has led to a very awkward situation. You
21:55:43can't argue with them. They dare not
21:55:45fight. Old Lu was so angry that he
21:55:47glared, and his forehead turned red. Su
21:55:50Chongqing squatted down, took out a
21:55:52handful of sunflower seeds from his
21:55:53small storage bag, and started cracking
21:55:55them open with interest. At this moment,
21:55:58a male cultivator dressed in black
21:56:00approached. Fellow Daist, can you share
21:56:02some with me? Such Chanqing turned his
21:56:04head and glanced at the other person.
21:56:06This person is short, probably only half
21:56:09the height of an adult. He had a
21:56:10mustache and his eyes gleamed with a
21:56:12sharp light. They give off a shifty eyed
21:56:14vibe, and the first impression isn't
21:56:16very good. However, Su Chongqing was not
21:56:19stingy and shared half of the melon
21:56:21seeds with the other party. The man
21:56:23smiled and said, "Thank you, fellow
21:56:25Daist. My name is Wong F, a talisman
21:56:28cultivator from Daqing City." Su
21:56:30Chongqing thought for a moment and said,
21:56:32"Kai Kuan, an alchemist from Daing
21:56:34City." Wongf used his enormous front
21:56:37teeth to bite open the melon rind, then
21:56:39asked in surprise, "Fellow Dowist Kai,
21:56:42which of these two old ghosts do you
21:56:44think will get the impure earth scale?"
21:56:46Upon hearing this, Su Choning curled his
21:56:48lip in differently and said, "Whatever."
21:56:51He didn't care at all which of the two
21:56:53would win the Edeto Tensei scale.
21:56:55Regardless of the other party's reasons,
21:56:57no matter how you look at it, I'm just a
21:56:59bystander watching a show. Chapter
21:57:01157.A. Strange Seed. The wine shop opens
21:57:04for trial operation. Thanks to my friend
21:57:06Pingping Wookie for the generous gift.
21:57:08Chapter 157A. Strange Seed. Wine shop
21:57:12opens for trial operation. Thanks to my
21:57:14friend Pingping Wookie for the generous
21:57:16gift. In the end, Wong won the bid for
21:57:19this Edeto scale. How many spirit stones
21:57:21did it cost? A total of 790. just short
21:57:24of 800. Old Lou couldn't win the
21:57:27argument, nor did he dare to fight, and
21:57:29he didn't have as many spirit stones as
21:57:31the other person. Seeing that he
21:57:33couldn't get the filthy earth scale, he
21:57:35angrily turned around and left. Pay the
21:57:37money and take the goods. The moment
21:57:39Wong Xang Fu touched the impure earth
21:57:42scale, his entire body suddenly sank,
21:57:44almost breaking his old frame. He
21:57:46hurriedly tossed it into his storage
21:57:48bag, then said with a face full of
21:57:50relief, "With this, I can." Thus,
21:57:53everything about the 500-year-old demon,
21:57:55the rolling dragon, including its skin,
21:57:58flesh, bones, spinal cord, essence,
21:58:01blood, stomach, and most importantly,
21:58:03its core parts, was sold in one fell
21:58:06swoop. The tiger hunting team earned
21:58:08over a thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
21:58:11As the second ranked demon hunting team
21:58:13in Daing City, after deducting all
21:58:15expenses such as pills, talismans, and
21:58:17treatments, their net profit is only
21:58:20about 10 mid-grade spirit stones per
21:58:22month. In other words, a powerful demon
21:58:24allowed them to earn spirit stones
21:58:26equivalent to more than 8 years worth of
21:58:29earnings ahead of schedule. Of course,
21:58:31since there are many people, everyone
21:58:33has to get a share. Even so, it still
21:58:35earns more than normal monster hunting.
21:58:37Let's go. Let's go. They're all gone. It
21:58:40stinks. I've wanted to leave for ages.
21:58:42The corpse of the great demon rolling
21:58:44dragon was dismembered and the onlookers
21:58:47gradually dispersed. But at that moment,
21:58:49several flying shuttles emerged from the
21:58:51eastern green trees on the other side.
21:58:53Wong Fod reacted quickly, exclaiming in
21:58:56surprise, "Isn't that a junior member of
21:58:58Master Wong<unk>s family?" Upon hearing
21:59:00this, Su Chonqing looked over and
21:59:02discovered that the quality of these
21:59:04people's flying shuttles was quite good.
21:59:06already very close to the level of
21:59:08disciples of the immortal sect. The
21:59:10people up there were all very young.
21:59:11Almost all of them were handsome men and
21:59:13beautiful women. The leader was a female
21:59:15cultivator dressed in flowing white
21:59:17robes with a beautiful face. She
21:59:20controlled the flying shuttle to arrive
21:59:21above the plaza. Looking down at the
21:59:23tiger hunting team descending the
21:59:25mountain. Then she coldly questioned,
21:59:27"Wong Tinba, what do you mean by this?
21:59:30Let's go. Let's go." Seeing this, Su
21:59:32Chongqing sensed that a fight might
21:59:34break out. So he quickly turned around
21:59:36and left, not wanting to linger here and
21:59:38afraid of getting involved. Wongf paused
21:59:40for a moment, then said with a playful
21:59:42expression, "You are a kindred spirit."
21:59:46Not long after, Su Chongqing left the
21:59:48square. But instead of going to the
21:59:50invitation to Fragrance Pavilion, he
21:59:52circled around it several times. Through
21:59:55his spiritual senses, he sensed that
21:59:57several people were following him, but
21:59:59he didn't know what they wanted to do.
22:00:00Perhaps it's because he bought the
22:00:02stomach sack of the road deer that he
22:00:03has attracted so much attention. After
22:00:06shaking them off, Su Chongqing thought
22:00:08it over and decided to return to the
22:00:10inn. It's better to play it safe and
22:00:11avoid crowded and noisy places like
22:00:13Yaoang Pavilion for now. He quickly
22:00:16returned to the inn and took out the
22:00:17rolling dragon stomach pouch from his
22:00:19small storage bag. The longest part of
22:00:21this thing is as long as an adult's arm.
22:00:23It's like a round ball, big and fat. If
22:00:26it weren't for its extreme ugliness, it
22:00:28would probably be worth washing. The
22:00:30liquid on top is no different from mud.
22:00:32Moreover, it wasn't just pure yellow
22:00:34mud. It also had a pungent rotten egg
22:00:37smell. Such Chongqing frowned and
22:00:39immediately opened the wooden window
22:00:41next to the bed. After a little
22:00:42ventilation, the stench subsided. Then
22:00:45he took out a sharp knife and began to
22:00:47cut little by little. The more you open
22:00:49it, the stronger the stench emanating
22:00:51from inside becomes. Who's cooking
22:00:54It stinks. Vomit. Soon, all around were
22:00:57sounds of cursing and swearing. and it
22:00:59can be as dirty as it gets. Su Chongqing
22:01:02remained unaffected and continued
22:01:04cutting open the stomach of the rolling
22:01:05dragon. At that moment, he didn't care
22:01:08about the greetings from those around
22:01:09him, nor did he care about the stench.
22:01:11He just wanted to see if the seed he had
22:01:13been longing for was inside. After all,
22:01:15it cost 18 mid-grade spirit stones. Not
22:01:18long after, a seed actually appeared in
22:01:21the muddy gastric juice. The outer shell
22:01:23is corroded and the surface is covered
22:01:25with scratches. Overall, it looks a bit
22:01:27like a sunflower seed with one end
22:01:30pointed and the other round. The seed is
22:01:32about the length of an adult's thumb. It
22:01:34is yellowish brown overall with a hint
22:01:36of earthy charm. Such Chongqing<unk>s
22:01:39eyes lit up. There really is one.
22:01:41Unfortunately, as he continued
22:01:43searching, he found only one seed in the
22:01:45enormous stomach. If it's the seed of an
22:01:47ordinary spiritual plant, then it's
22:01:49definitely a huge loss. If it's the seed
22:01:52of a rare spiritual plant, it's
22:01:54equivalent to losing money. Unless this
22:01:56thing is not only rare, but also very
22:01:59valuable. At this moment, Su Chongqing
22:02:01glanced out the window and saw that the
22:02:03people who had come to greet him had
22:02:05fallen silent. It looks like it was
22:02:06driven away by the stench. Fortunately,
22:02:09it was finally over, and he quickly put
22:02:11away the stomach sack and the seeds.
22:02:13There's no rush to confirm now. We'll
22:02:15discuss it again upon returning to the
22:02:17immortal sect. Next, we just need to
22:02:19wait for the trial operation of
22:02:21Chongqing Wine Shop. Time flew by and
22:02:23the next day arrived. Su Chongqing was
22:02:26lying in bed diligently studying the
22:02:28mysterious wood golden body technique. I
22:02:31received a notification from Sun Pong.
22:02:33The other party said that the signboard
22:02:34had been completed. They inquired
22:02:36whether to choose a suitable time or to
22:02:38start preparing for the trial operation
22:02:40now. Such Chanqing didn't want to waste
22:02:42too much time in the scattered
22:02:44cultivator market, so he felt the sooner
22:02:46the better. Anyway, the Sun family has
22:02:48been trying to find people to increase
22:02:50the popularity of their liquor store
22:02:52during this period. Next, as long as the
22:02:54drinks are good, it's only a matter of
22:02:56time before it becomes a huge hit. In
22:02:58fact, everyone who has tasted Lingi wine
22:03:00praises it without exception. Su
22:03:02Chongqing's masterful, highquality
22:03:04spirit rice wine is practically a
22:03:06gamecher here with virtually no
22:03:08competitors. Around noon, he left the
22:03:11inn and headed towards Chongqing wine
22:03:12shop. Perhaps because the Evergreen Wine
22:03:15Shop is about to open for trial
22:03:16operation, the streets are packed with
22:03:18people. Most of them were definitely
22:03:20planted by the Sun family. However,
22:03:22there are also some curious people or
22:03:24those who simply enjoy drinking. After
22:03:26all, the Sun family must have had the
22:03:28resources to open a liquor store on this
22:03:30bustling street. If things go wrong, I
22:03:33doubt I'll even break even. Before long,
22:03:35a commotion broke out ahead. Sun roam is
22:03:38here. It seems the Sun family values
22:03:40this wine shop very much. I wonder what
22:03:42the wine tastes like. Son Rome
22:03:44accompanied by his son's son Pong,
22:03:46daughter-in-law Le Yana, manager Son
22:03:49Yun, and others appeared at the other
22:03:51end of the street in a grand manner,
22:03:53which immediately attracted a lot of
22:03:54onlookers. Surrounded by a crowd, Sun
22:03:57Ron and his entourage arrived at the
22:03:59entrance of the liquor store, which was
22:04:01about to open for trial operation.
22:04:03Several servants of the Sun family
22:04:05brought out the firecrackers that had
22:04:06been prepared in advance. In an instant,
22:04:09the crackling sound echoed throughout
22:04:10the entire street. It immediately
22:04:13attracted more attention with people
22:04:14looking around curiously. Seeing that it
22:04:17was getting more and more lively and
22:04:18that more and more people were
22:04:19gathering, Sunron stood at the door,
22:04:22smiled, and called out, "Someone hang up
22:04:24the plaque." Directly opposite on the
22:04:26second floor of the Panchan Tea House,
22:04:29Su Chongqing sat by the window, sipping
22:04:31his bloodvine tea while looking across
22:04:33the street. The plaque was covered by a
22:04:35red cloth, making the words illegible,
22:04:37but the whole thing was made of a thick,
22:04:39dark piece of wood. After hanging it up,
22:04:42Sun winked at his son next to him. Sun
22:04:44Pong understood immediately, glanced at
22:04:47the second floor of the tea house across
22:04:48the street, exchanged a look with Su
22:04:50Chongqing, and then ripped off the red
22:04:52cloth on the plaque. Suddenly, for large
22:04:55gilded characters exuding an ancient
22:04:58charm, appeared. Chongqing wine shop.
22:05:01Chapter 158. Spirit rice wine becomes a
22:05:04hit. Introduction to the mysterious wood
22:05:06technique. Chapter 158. Spirit rice wine
22:05:09becomes a hit. Profound wood technique
22:05:11begins. The Lelay family gifts a pair of
22:05:14guardian stone lions. Panchchan Tea
22:05:16House is giving away a set of exquisite
22:05:18wine utensils. Lingan restaurant
22:05:21presents you with a long night pearl. As
22:05:23the plaque was unveiled, many
22:05:25acquaintances presented generous gifts.
22:05:27Chongqing wine shop suddenly became the
22:05:29busiest shop on the street. Sun R stood
22:05:32on the steps, his gaze sweeping over
22:05:34everyone in front of him. And then he
22:05:36announced loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen,
22:05:38today is the first day of our trial
22:05:40operation. Everyone can enjoy a small
22:05:42cup of our master brewer's premium
22:05:44spirit rice wine brewed by him
22:05:46personally for free." These words caused
22:05:48an uproar among many people. Another
22:05:51master brewer. It's another highquality
22:05:53Lingi wine, and you can also get a small
22:05:55cup for free. Even people who weren't
22:05:57interested before are now eager to try
22:05:59it. Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Son R
22:06:02instructed his son, "Go and bring a pot
22:06:04of the highquality spirit rice wine that
22:06:06fellow Daist Kai gave us." Son Pung
22:06:09nodded, then turned and went into the
22:06:11store. Not long after, he came out
22:06:13carrying a pot of wine in both hands.
22:06:15After deducting the weight of the wine
22:06:17pot, there is one pound of highquality
22:06:19Lingi wine inside. When the people
22:06:21around saw that there was only so much,
22:06:23they all looked disappointed. I thought
22:06:25there would be at least a big bucket so
22:06:27everyone could have a good drink. But I
22:06:29never expected them to be so stingy and
22:06:31miserly, only giving us a small pot.
22:06:34Faced with doubts and ridicule from many
22:06:36people, Sun Pong remained unmoved, even
22:06:39revealing a meaningful smile on his face
22:06:41before opening the lid. Instantly, a
22:06:44rich aroma of rice mixed with the mellow
22:06:46scent of wine wafted out of the wine
22:06:48pot. Everyone who smelled this odor,
22:06:50whether they had doubts or not, fell
22:06:52silent instantly. Then, everyone's eyes
22:06:55were fixed on the wine pot in Sunpangs
22:06:57hand. Enticed by the aroma, some heavy
22:07:00drinkers swallowed their saliva, their
22:07:02Adam's apples bobbing up and down. It
22:07:04smells so good. Someone shouted,
22:07:07breaking the quiet atmosphere. The next
22:07:09second, the onlookers seemed to be
22:07:11activated and immediately swarmed
22:07:12forward. Although it is a common spirit
22:07:15rice wine, no similar taste can be found
22:07:17in the entire market of scattered
22:07:19cultivators. The aroma of alcohol
22:07:21doesn't necessarily indicate the quality
22:07:23of the alcohol, but if it can make
22:07:25people's mouths water, that's already
22:07:27quite impressive. It's delicious. Really
22:07:29delicious. A fine wine. My goodness. Is
22:07:32this really the spirit rice wine that
22:07:34you can drink in the market for rogue
22:07:35cultivators? Those who were the first to
22:07:38taste it all stared wideeyed, their
22:07:40faces showing disbelief. They were so
22:07:42moved by the excellent quality of the
22:07:44Lingi wine that they shed tears.
22:07:46Throughout Daing City, especially in the
22:07:48market area for scattered cultivators,
22:07:50while there are some highquality Lingi
22:07:52wines sold, the majority are actually
22:07:54cheap and inferior wines. Almost every
22:07:57independent cultivator who enjoys
22:07:59drinking has tried it. However, compared
22:08:01to the highquality spirit rice wines
22:08:03sold by the Sun family, it is several
22:08:05levels inferior. It feels like a dream
22:08:07to be able to drink such fine wine now.
22:08:09Are they all colleagues? That guy even
22:08:11cried. He deserves to make money. Wait,
22:08:14something seems off. Faced with this
22:08:16situation, the shills hired by the Sun
22:08:18family looked at each other in
22:08:20bewilderment. Things didn't go as they
22:08:22expected. Before he could even start
22:08:24setting the pace, a pot of spirit rice
22:08:26wine ignited the entire scene. In an
22:08:28instant, large numbers of people flocked
22:08:30into Chongqing wine shop. However, many
22:08:33people were stunned when they saw the
22:08:34price. How many? One pound contains 15
22:08:37low-grade spirit stones. The price is
22:08:40too high. Other wine shops and
22:08:41distilleries only charge five low-grade
22:08:44spirit stones for a pound of highquality
22:08:46spirit rice wine. Small workshops are
22:08:48even cheaper. A single low-grade spirit
22:08:51stone can buy several kilograms of
22:08:52inferior spirit rice wine. The problem
22:08:54is that the Lingi wine sold by the Sun
22:08:57family's Chongqing wine shop is indeed
22:08:59very delicious and the aroma alone is
22:09:01addictive. After much deliberation, a
22:09:04male cultivator finally made up his
22:09:06mind, stomped his foot and shouted, "Buy
22:09:08it. Such delicious wine deserves a
22:09:10higher price. Once the first person
22:09:13buys, a second, a third, and so on, one
22:09:16after another. In just a short while,
22:09:18more than 40 gene were sold. One pound
22:09:20contains 15 low-grade spirit stones. 40
22:09:23caddies is equivalent to 600 lowgrade
22:09:26spirit stones. This means that on the
22:09:28first day of the trial operation, they
22:09:30earned six mid-grade spirit stones. Sun
22:09:33Pong said in a panic. Father, at this
22:09:35rate, the 500 gene of high-quality
22:09:38spirit rice wine we prepared is simply
22:09:40not enough to sell. Sun Ro<unk>s
22:09:42expression froze, and he couldn't help
22:09:44but say, "It seems I need to have
22:09:46another talk with fellow Dowist Kai."
22:09:49Suddenly, Leana, the daughter-in-law
22:09:51standing nearby, put down the
22:09:53communication talisman and stepped
22:09:54forward, saying, "Father, my own father
22:09:58just said that you should secretly save
22:10:00Ten for him. Master Madame Yo also said
22:10:03just now, "Sir, the head chef of Ling
22:10:06Xan restaurant would like to speak with
22:10:07you in person. Sir, Angu from Yaang
22:10:10Pavilion wants to meet you at our usual
22:10:12place." Next, I started contacting all
22:10:15sorts of acquaintances and friends. A
22:10:17newly opened liquor store is bustling
22:10:19with activity comparable to a century
22:10:22old establishment. Uh, Sun R and his son
22:10:25Son Pong felt a chill run down their
22:10:27spines. The two of them went to find Su
22:10:29Chongqing at the tea house across the
22:10:31street. One person stayed behind to take
22:10:33charge. Sun Pong hurried into the
22:10:35Panchchun tea house, almost bumping into
22:10:38the waiter. Without exchanging any words
22:10:40with him, he immediately climbed the
22:10:42steps to the second floor. I spotted Su
22:10:44Chongqing sitting by the window,
22:10:46savoring his tea. Sun Pong hurriedly
22:10:48said, "Fellow Daist Kai, the spirit rice
22:10:51wine is selling like hot cakes. It won't
22:10:53last more than a few days." Upon hearing
22:10:56this, Su Chongqing casually replied, "I
22:10:59only brought 500 gene this time." Sun
22:11:01Pong scratched his head. Then what
22:11:03should we do? Su Chonqing thought about
22:11:05it carefully and said, "You can limit
22:11:07the quantity, sell only a portion each
22:11:09day, and keep it up until I come over
22:11:11next month." Sun Pong said with a sense
22:11:14of helplessness. It seems this is the
22:11:16only way. Given its current popularity,
22:11:19it's estimated that 500 gene of
22:11:21highquality Lingi wine will be sold out
22:11:23in just 2 days. If a liquor store that
22:11:25specializes in selling alcohol closes
22:11:28down right after its trial operation,
22:11:30that would be terrible. Such Chonqing
22:11:32put down his teacup, stood up from his
22:11:34stool, and reminded the other party.
22:11:36Today's situation will definitely
22:11:37attract the attention of all the major
22:11:39wine shops, distilleries, restaurants,
22:11:42and small workshops in Daing City. You
22:11:44must be vigilant and make sure nothing
22:11:46goes wrong. Sunpong nodded quickly.
22:11:48Don't worry. Su Chongqing waved his
22:11:51hand. Very well. I'm leaving now. See
22:11:53you next month. A few days after
22:11:56returning to the Daunting Immortal sect,
22:11:58it was midnight. While using the Azure
22:12:00Lotus Domain to help the bright moon
22:12:02grass in the spirit field grow faster,
22:12:04Such Chaning was also studying the
22:12:06mysterious wood golden body technique.
22:12:08Suddenly, he sensed something and
22:12:10immediately looked at the attribute
22:12:12panel. Mysterious with golden body
22:12:14technique level one. Effect one, the
22:12:16epidermis hardens like ironwood. Effect
22:12:19two, ironwood can reflect damage. Effect
22:12:22three, physical resistance increased by
22:12:24plus 10%. Special effect, abrasions heal
22:12:28in three breaths, Su Chongqing exclaimed
22:12:31in surprise. Is this the complete
22:12:33version of a highle defensive spell? The
22:12:35first layer alone has three normal
22:12:37effects and one special effect. It's
22:12:39easy to imagine how amazing it would be
22:12:41if it were upgraded to the maximum
22:12:43level. At this point, a system prompt
22:12:45appears. Would you like to sacrifice 5
22:12:48years of your lifespan to upgrade the
22:12:49mystic wood golden body technique to
22:12:51level two? Chapter 159 max level mystic
22:12:55wood technique cultivating strange
22:12:57seeds. Chapter 159 max level mystic wood
22:13:00technique cultivating a strange seed.
22:13:02Yes, he instantly entered a state of
22:13:05enlightenment. The mysterious feeling
22:13:07lasted for five breaths before it
22:13:09subsided. At the same time, this highle
22:13:12defensive spell was also upgraded once
22:13:14again. Remaining lifespan 725 years.
22:13:18Mysterious wood golden body technique
22:13:20level two. Effect one, the epidermis
22:13:22hardens like ironwood. Effect two,
22:13:25ironwood can reflect damage. Effect
22:13:27three, physical resistance increased by
22:13:30plus 20%. Effect four, improved bone
22:13:33resilience. Effect five, can withstand
22:13:36three elephants stepping on it
22:13:37simultaneously. Special effect one,
22:13:40abrasions heal in three breaths. Special
22:13:42effect two, bone fracture heals in one
22:13:45day. Such Choning chose to upgrade to
22:13:47the next level because he wanted to see
22:13:49how it would go. Currently, the
22:13:51difference between the first and second
22:13:53layers lies in four aspects: defense,
22:13:55resilience, recovery, and resistance to
22:13:58physical attacks. It seems that the
22:14:00effect will become stronger as time goes
22:14:02on. Would you like to sacrifice 30 years
22:14:04of your lifespan to upgrade the mystic
22:14:06with golden body technique to level 5?
22:14:09Yes, Su Chongqin answered decisively.
22:14:12Now, my lifespan has long exceeded 700
22:14:15years. It's only a few decades. There's
22:14:18no need to worry about it. Harvesting
22:14:20just one acre of spiritual land will
22:14:22quickly restore it. Immediately, he
22:14:24entered that profound and mysterious
22:14:26state of sudden enlightenment once
22:14:28again. Because this time, it's at full
22:14:30power, it will last longer. It felt like
22:14:32I was automatically cultivating myself,
22:14:34and my various experiences became
22:14:36clearer and clearer. I'm gaining more
22:14:38and more experience and skills in the
22:14:40mysterious with golden body technique.
22:14:43Remaining lifespan 695 years. Mysterious
22:14:47with golden body technique. Fifth level.
22:14:50Effect one, the outer skin hardens like
22:14:52iron would reflecting damage and
22:14:54increasing resistance to physical
22:14:55attacks by plus 50%. Effect two,
22:14:59increased bone toughness, allowing the
22:15:01body to withstand the simultaneous
22:15:02stomping of five elements. Physical
22:15:04damage reduction plus 40%. Effect three,
22:15:08internal organs develop spiritual veins,
22:15:11forming an inner armor that increases
22:15:13physical impact resistance by 30%.
22:15:15Effect four, the heart transforms into a
22:15:18green wood spirit seed. Recovery speed
22:15:20increases by 20% when near spirit
22:15:23plants. Effect five, the entire body is
22:15:26covered in spirit runes, granting pain
22:15:28immunity. Upon near death, the body
22:15:31transforms into a tree, increasing
22:15:33damage resistance by 100%. Special
22:15:36effect one, skin abrasions heal in three
22:15:39breaths. Special effect two, bone and
22:15:42muscle cracks heal in one day. Special
22:15:44effect three, internal organ damage
22:15:46heals in 3 days. Special effect four,
22:15:49fatal wound turns into faint death.
22:15:52Hiss. Such choning gasped. Although I
22:15:55knew that highle defensive spells were
22:15:56very powerful, I didn't expect them to
22:15:58be this powerful. With all five layers
22:16:01maxed out, the defense, damage
22:16:03resistance, and recovery reach an
22:16:05astonishing level. All I can say is that
22:16:07the immortal sect truly lives up to its
22:16:10name. The cultivation techniques and
22:16:12spells exchanged are not only complete,
22:16:14but also extremely effective. If it were
22:16:16a market town for independent
22:16:18cultivators or an ordinary cultivation
22:16:20family, they would only have one or two
22:16:22complete cultivation techniques. Not to
22:16:24mention that many aspects would be
22:16:26greatly compromised. Seeing the amazing
22:16:28effects of the mysterious wood golden
22:16:30body technique, Su Chonqing didn't even
22:16:33bother to look after his spiritual
22:16:35field, he ran all the way back to the
22:16:37wooden house and then went into the
22:16:38kitchen. Without any hesitation, he
22:16:41immediately picked up the kitchen knife
22:16:42from the cutting board. He had this
22:16:44knife with him for a long time. It has
22:16:46been used for cooking ever since it was
22:16:47first added to the core of the spirit
22:16:49field. It is sharpened from time to
22:16:51time, making it extremely sharp.
22:16:53Chopping melons and cutting vegetables
22:16:55is a piece of cake. Now it's finally
22:16:57time to deliver the final blow to
22:16:59myself. Such Chongqing held the kitchen
22:17:02knife in his right hand and gently
22:17:04slashed at the back of his left hand.
22:17:06Logically, there should be a small
22:17:07scratch or even stinging and bleeding.
22:17:10But now there are no wounds, not even
22:17:12any bleeding, only a faint white scratch
22:17:15that is not very clear. Su Chongqing
22:17:17grinned. I'm a wood cultivator, so why
22:17:19am I being treated like a body
22:17:21cultivator? But it's good. This is
22:17:23exactly the effect I wanted. He
22:17:25immediately increased the pressure,
22:17:27hoping to break the skin. I tried for a
22:17:29while, but it still didn't cause any
22:17:31damage. This kitchen knife, although
22:17:33considered a type of everyday magical
22:17:35weapon, is extremely sharp. However, due
22:17:38to limitations in materials and forging
22:17:40techniques, it is only of average
22:17:42quality. Today, no matter how much Su
22:17:45Chongqing damages himself, he has not
22:17:47caused even the slightest harm. The
22:17:49recovery speed is so fast that scratches
22:17:51that appear one second ago disappear the
22:17:54next. After several unsuccessful
22:17:56attempts, he gave up on continuing. It
22:17:58felt weird to be alone in the kitchen
22:18:00late at night playing with a kitchen
22:18:01knife. Afterwards, Su Chongqing walked
22:18:04out of the kitchen and wooden house in a
22:18:06cheerful mood and returned to the ridge
22:18:08of the second moo of spiritual field to
22:18:10continue taking care of the bright moon
22:18:12grass. These moon flowers grow very
22:18:14quickly within the Azure lotus
22:18:16territory. In just 7 days, it has grown
22:18:19to about 3 in tall. Barring any
22:18:21unforeseen circumstances, it should
22:18:23mature in about half a month, similar to
22:18:25last time. As he looked at it, Su
22:18:28Chonqing suddenly had a thought,
22:18:29remembering the strange seed in the
22:18:31stomach sack of the rolling dragon that
22:18:33he had photographed in a loose
22:18:34cultivator market. He communicated with
22:18:36the azure gourd through his thoughts,
22:18:38and the seed immediately appeared in his
22:18:41palm. Similar to a melon seed, it is
22:18:43pointed at one end and round at the
22:18:45other. The seed is as long as an adult's
22:18:47thumb. It is yellowish brown overall
22:18:50with a hint of earthy charm. The shell
22:18:52was covered in scratches because it was
22:18:54corroded by the gastric juices of the
22:18:56rotting dragon. Such Chonqing glanced
22:18:58around and found a spot near the
22:19:00irrigation ditch. He then buried the
22:19:02strange seed which looked like a melon
22:19:04seed directly into the black soil next
22:19:07to it. When the azure lotus domain is
22:19:09activated, it inherently contains a rich
22:19:11elemental power of wood. Therefore,
22:19:14there is no need to specifically inject
22:19:16it into the seed. Time passed slowly and
22:19:18the moon shifted from east to west. It
22:19:21took longer than expected to cultivate
22:19:23this seed. The few I planted before
22:19:25sprouted and grew in no time. But this
22:19:27one was the only one that seemed to be
22:19:29dead, showing no sign of life. Su
22:19:31Chongqing frowned. Does it have specific
22:19:34requirements for its growing environment
22:19:36because it contains a trace of earth
22:19:37elemental energy? He thought it was
22:19:39similar to the previous earth guiding
22:19:41grass. Now, it seems that it's not that
22:19:44simple. It might be some kind of
22:19:45extremely rare spiritual plant. Faced
22:19:48with this situation, there is currently
22:19:50no other way but to wait patiently.
22:19:52Therefore, seeing that the wood
22:19:54elemental power in his dantion was
22:19:56exhausted, Sue Chonqing walked towards
22:19:58the wooden house without hesitation.
22:20:00Now, let this seed live and die on its
22:20:03own. If there is still no progress after
22:20:053 days, we will have to find another way
22:20:07to cultivate it. Since there is earth
22:20:09elemental energy, it may be related to
22:20:11earth elemental roots, earth veins, or
22:20:14the like. Such choning slept until
22:20:16around 10:00 a.m. Because they had
22:20:18gotten used to their owner's recent
22:20:20lifestyle, Wong Wong and the guinea fowl
22:20:22didn't wait anxiously this time. The two
22:20:24little ones had already learned to find
22:20:26food on their own in the fields, fields,
22:20:28and grass. Such Chongqing stretched and
22:20:31walked out of the room, saying, "That
22:20:33was a really good night's sleep." He
22:20:35subconsciously glanced at the second
22:20:37acre of second grade spirit field on the
22:20:39left. The moonflower has already rested.
22:20:42During the day, it's Jyn Wooding's home
22:20:44ground. However, without realizing it,
22:20:46he discovered that the black soil where
22:20:48he had planted the strange seeds the
22:20:50night before had become sticky. Although
22:20:52it is near the canal, this is the only
22:20:54location with this condition. Upon
22:20:56seeing this, Such Choning hurly stepped
22:20:58forward to check. Chapter 160. An
22:21:01accidental encounter with bamboo and
22:21:03leisure. It turns out to be earthly
22:21:05fruit. Chapter 160. An encounter with
22:21:07bamboo and leisure. It turned out that
22:21:09the earthly fruit had arrived at its
22:21:11destination. Such Chongqing knelt on one
22:21:14knee, squinting his eyes as he carefully
22:21:16examined it. Compared to its
22:21:18surroundings, this spot where the
22:21:20peculiar seed was buried had a
22:21:21noticeably moist feel, as if it were
22:21:23filled with liquid. This was the first
22:21:25time he had encountered such a
22:21:27situation. So, he stretched out his
22:21:28right index finger and poked at the
22:21:30sticky black soil directly below. To my
22:21:33utter surprise, not only did it not
22:21:35penetrate, but it even showed a slight
22:21:37elasticity, as if it were not black
22:21:39soil, but a jelly-like substance. The
22:21:42more force you apply, the stronger the
22:21:44elastic feedback becomes. When you don't
22:21:46use much force, your index finger
22:21:48disappears into it all at once. Then, I
22:21:50touched something hard, which, if I'm
22:21:52not mistaken, should be the peculiar
22:21:54seed buried inside. Su Chonqing rubbed
22:21:57it a few times and found that it had not
22:21:59taken root or sprouted. It was still the
22:22:02same as last night with nothing special
22:22:03about it. But the black soil near this
22:22:05seed was stickier than the surrounding
22:22:07soil. Such Chonqing pulled out his right
22:22:10index finger and held it up to his eyes
22:22:12to examine it. There are some water
22:22:14stains, but not many. Most of it is
22:22:16sticky black soil. Moreover, the earthy
22:22:18smell here seems stronger than in other
22:22:20places, especially after a small hole
22:22:22was poked in it. The smell became
22:22:24increasingly pungent. Suching was
22:22:27surprised and doubtful. He quickly
22:22:29covered it again with black soil, and
22:22:31the smell indeed weakened. It seems that
22:22:33all the changes here stem from that
22:22:34seat. Faced with this situation, he
22:22:37pondered for a while, then suddenly
22:22:39patted the green gourd at his waist, and
22:22:41a shovel immediately appeared. He then
22:22:43dug out the entire patch of black soil
22:22:46along with the seeds. Without any
22:22:47hesitation, they immediately ran towards
22:22:50the rocky mountain. Since we cannot
22:22:52determine the exact nature of this seed,
22:22:54we cannot continue to keep it together
22:22:56with the various spiritual plants in the
22:22:58spiritual field. If something unexpected
22:23:00happens, all the hard work we've done
22:23:02will be for nothing. The black soil at
22:23:04the foot of the Rocky Mountain is
22:23:05relatively safer. Because Su Chongqing
22:23:08planned to transplant the mutated mother
22:23:10rice, he was not in a hurry to plant the
22:23:12mutated daughter rice. Currently, there
22:23:14is only one spiritual plant in the black
22:23:17soil there, which is the mother rice
22:23:18that has undergone two mutations.
22:23:20Perhaps combining these two spiritual
22:23:22plants will bring unexpected surprises.
22:23:25Not long after, Su Chongqing arrived at
22:23:27the foot of the stone mountain just as
22:23:29he was about to move the stone at the
22:23:31entrance. His spiritual sense suddenly
22:23:33detected someone on the mountain. This
22:23:35startled him and he immediately stopped
22:23:37what he was doing and looked up. The
22:23:39spirit can sense that someone is above
22:23:41but cannot see clearly below. Faced with
22:23:44this situation, Su Chonqing thought it
22:23:46over and over and simply put the black
22:23:48soil and seeds into the green gourd,
22:23:50then quickly climbed up and decided to
22:23:52take a look. In any case, this place is
22:23:55very close to his spiritual field. If
22:23:57someone seems suspicious, you must be
22:23:59wary of them. Not long after, Su
22:24:01Chongqing arrived at the top of Stone
22:24:03Mountain again and looked ahead. On the
22:24:05rock directly opposite, an elderly man
22:24:07dressed in formal white disciple robes
22:24:10sat cross-legged, gazing into the
22:24:12distance. Such Chongqing thought for a
22:24:14moment and then asked. And you are? The
22:24:16old man speculated. It seems you are the
22:24:18owner of those two acres of spiritual
22:24:21fields behind. Su Chongqing nodded
22:24:23slightly. Not bad. The old man smiled
22:24:26slightly. My name is Zhu Fushian and I
22:24:28am also a formal disciple. Upon hearing
22:24:31this, Su Chongqing stepped forward,
22:24:33cuped his hands in greeting, and said,
22:24:35"So, it's senior brotherh. My name is Su
22:24:37Chonqing. I've only been with the core
22:24:39of the spirit field for a few years.
22:24:41Where is your spirit field? Zhu Fushian
22:24:44raised his right hand and pointed into
22:24:45the distance, saying, "That's my
22:24:47spiritual field over there." Su Chonqing
22:24:50looked over and suddenly realized what
22:24:52was happening. When I first climbed the
22:24:54stone mountain and looked out, I saw
22:24:56many spiritual fields and spiritual
22:24:58plants in the distance. There are many
22:25:00spiritual fields. Moreover, spiritual
22:25:02plants have a long growth cycle. With
22:25:04these two combined, you can imagine how
22:25:06strong the bamboo plant in front of you
22:25:08is in terms of planting ability. I
22:25:10thought I would never see him again and
22:25:12that we would never get to know each
22:25:14other in my lifetime. Unexpectedly, we
22:25:16had the pleasure of meeting each other
22:25:17this morning. Zhu Fuian turned around
22:25:20and looked the young spirit farmer up
22:25:22and down. Speaking of which, your spirit
22:25:24field has quite a connection with me. Su
22:25:26Chongqing asked in surprise, "What?" Zhu
22:25:29Fushin smiled and said, "10 years ago,
22:25:32an old friend of mine died there." Upon
22:25:34hearing this, Su Chongqing<unk>s lips
22:25:36twitched violently. So, I live in a
22:25:38haunted house. Zhu Fushian waved his
22:25:41hand dismissively. We are all
22:25:43cultivators. There's no need to care
22:25:44about this. Su Chongqing said rather
22:25:47speechless. You're not staying here, so
22:25:50of course you don't need to worry about
22:25:51it. Zhu Fuian took a deep breath and
22:25:54then sighed. 10 years ago, my old friend
22:25:56forcibly broke through his realm,
22:25:58attempting to reach the level of the
22:26:00golden core of human quality. In the
22:26:02end, he failed and died. Such Chanqing
22:26:05didn't speak, but just looked at the
22:26:07other person intently. The man rire of
22:26:09decay. To put it bluntly, it's just an
22:26:11old-fashioned vibe. Strangely, he did
22:26:13not appear old and decrepit at all. On
22:26:16the contrary, he was vigorous and had a
22:26:18long, steady breath, which was
22:26:20definitely not the state of someone who
22:26:21was about to die. At this moment, Zhu
22:26:24Fushian took out his communication
22:26:25talisman and said, "Junior Brother Su,
22:26:28since your spirit field has a connection
22:26:30with me, that must be fate. Let's<unk>
22:26:32keep in touch more often, and you can
22:26:34ask me any questions about spirit
22:26:35plants." Su Choning<unk>s eyes lit up
22:26:37and he immediately took the
22:26:39communication talisman from the other
22:26:40party saying perfect timing. Junior
22:26:43brother would like to ask you something
22:26:44right now. Zhu Fushian paused for a
22:26:47moment then nodded. Ask away. Su
22:26:49Chongqing described the peculiar seed
22:26:51and then asked, "Senior brother, do you
22:26:54know the origin of that seed?" Zhu
22:26:56Fushian said thoughtfully, "The rolling
22:26:58dragon is a gluttonous monster,
22:27:00especially fond of all kinds of
22:27:01spiritual plants. The rarer the plant,
22:27:04the more it likes it. The one you saw,
22:27:06if I'm not mistaken, it should be called
22:27:08the earth element fruit. Fruit? Su
22:27:11Chongqing exclaimed in astonishment. Zhu
22:27:13Fuin nodded. Wherever the earth's energy
22:27:16is abundant, almost both earthguiding
22:27:18grass and earth element fruit, two kinds
22:27:20of spiritual plants, will grow, which
22:27:22are also one of the foods of the rolling
22:27:24earth dragon. Such Chonqing never
22:27:26expected that this was not just a seed,
22:27:29but also a fruit pit. The great demon
22:27:31rolling dragon swallowed the earthly
22:27:34fruit and digested the flesh in its
22:27:36stomach, leaving only the core intact
22:27:38because of its strong resistance. Before
22:27:40it could be broken down, it was killed
22:27:42by the tiger hunting team. Junior
22:27:44Brother Su, that's all for today. I need
22:27:46to go back and take care of the
22:27:47spiritual plants. Zhu Fushian said, his
22:27:50body swaying as lightly as a leaf, and
22:27:53he drifted away with the wind. Seeing
22:27:55this, Su Chongqing hurriedly bowed
22:27:57again, saying respectfully seeing off
22:28:00senior brotherh. Once the other person
22:28:02was completely out of sight, he withdrew
22:28:04his gaze and then narrowed his eyes.
22:28:06Although I don't know why Zu Fushian is
22:28:08here, at least I know what this strange
22:28:10seed is. It's recorded in the Spirit
22:28:12Field Chronicles and the Five Element
22:28:14Spirit Book that this earthly element
22:28:16fruit is. Chapter 161, the difference
22:28:19between golden cores, the cruelty of
22:28:21cultivation. Chapter 161. The difference
22:28:24between golden cores, the cruelty of
22:28:26immortal cultivation, the earthly fruit,
22:28:29also known as the earth spirit fruit. It
22:28:31must grow in places with abundant earth
22:28:33energy. It grows extremely slowly,
22:28:36taking 10 years to take root and sprout
22:28:38and another 10 years to flower and bear
22:28:40fruit. Moreover, it has a characteristic
22:28:43that Su Chongqing remembers vividly.
22:28:45When it has pulp, it is a woou spiritual
22:28:48fruit representing yong earth. It can be
22:28:50used for ingestion, crafting defensive
22:28:53magical artifacts, and designing
22:28:54formations. If only the seed remains, it
22:28:57becomes of the earth element, also known
22:29:00as inear, characterized by mud, which
22:29:02can turn originally dry land into clay.
22:29:05Its main function is to be buried in
22:29:07black soil to improve the earth's energy
22:29:09and increase nutrients and then to
22:29:11cultivate spiritual plants or to serve
22:29:13as a carrier for talisman. Therefore,
22:29:15the earthroot fruit is an extremely
22:29:17special fruit. This explains why the
22:29:20black soil where the seeds were planted
22:29:21turned muddy overnight. There are
22:29:23currently three known variants. One, the
22:29:26mysterious yellow earth core fruit. The
22:29:28fruit is dark golden in color with
22:29:30dragon scale-like patterns on its
22:29:32surface and weighs a ton. When it
22:29:34matures, it will trigger a small
22:29:36earthquake. Its aura needs to be sealed
22:29:38with an array, otherwise it will attract
22:29:40a powerful demon. It can greatly enhance
22:29:42the power of earth-based spells and
22:29:44supernatural abilities. It is also a
22:29:47core material for refining the earth
22:29:49elemental natal magic weapon, the
22:29:51mysterious yellow seal. The current
22:29:53price is 3,000 high-grade spirit stones,
22:29:56and it may fluctuate occasionally. Two,
22:29:58impure world demon fruit. It needs to
22:30:01grow in a in evil place to absorb
22:30:03resentment and earth evil, thus causing
22:30:06mutation. The fruit is jet black with
22:30:08blood red veins on its surface, and
22:30:10touching it can affect one's mind. It
22:30:12exudes the scent of decaying earth,
22:30:14causing surrounding vegetation to
22:30:16wither, yet it is accompanied by the
22:30:18rare spiritual plant, the soul devouring
22:30:20vine. It can be refined into the impure
22:30:23earth demon pill, which greatly enhances
22:30:25the power of in type spells and
22:30:27supernatural abilities. It is most
22:30:29famously used for refining weapons,
22:30:31creating the infamous impure earth
22:30:34banner. Currently, there is a price, but
22:30:36no market for it. The last recorded
22:30:38instance was over aundred years ago. At
22:30:41the time, one of them sold for 5,000
22:30:43high-grade spirit stones. Three. Space
22:30:46Earth elemental fruit. Growing near the
22:30:48entrance to the secret realm, it absorbs
22:30:50the power of space, thus undergoing
22:30:53mutation. The fruit contains a trace of
22:30:55spatial laws, is semi-transparent in
22:30:57color, and has flowing light and shadow
22:31:00like quicksand inside. It is as light as
22:31:02a feather, yet it cannot be stored in an
22:31:04ordinary storage bag. It can be used to
22:31:07comprehend rudimentary spatial
22:31:09supernatural powers and spells such as
22:31:11shrinking the earth to an inch or small
22:31:13teleportation techniques. They can be
22:31:15used as materials for crafting magical
22:31:17treasures such as the mustard seed sumu
22:31:20forming a small space of their own. Of
22:31:22course, this thing is most famous for
22:31:24being the main material for the
22:31:25interdimensional teleportation array.
22:31:28Because it is so scarce, it is
22:31:29impossible to buy and there is no
22:31:31specific transaction price. Currently,
22:31:34as long as the seedlings are
22:31:35successfully cultivated, they can recoup
22:31:37their costs even without mutations. Su
22:31:40Chongqing stood on the rocky mountain,
22:31:42the cold wind blowing, messing up his
22:31:44long hair, but he became more and more
22:31:46calm. The value of an ordinary earthworm
22:31:49fruit is neither particularly high nor
22:31:51low. For cultivators in theqi refining
22:31:53and foundation establishment stages,
22:31:55this is considered a good item. However,
22:31:58the stage at which it truly comes into
22:32:00play is the golden core stage. The more
22:32:02books Su Chongqing read, the more
22:32:04knowledge he accumulated about
22:32:06cultivating immortality. Once you reach
22:32:08the golden core stage, your spiritual
22:32:10consciousness will be upgraded to divine
22:32:12consciousness. If one reaches the Earth
22:32:15grade golden core, one may even gain
22:32:17additional supernatural abilities.
22:32:19Depending on the number of spiritual
22:32:21roots, one may comprehend one or even
22:32:23multiple ones. This is the main reason
22:32:26why core disciples like Leing strive to
22:32:28achieve the Earthrade golden core. Why
22:32:30did Chaong become possessed by a demon
22:32:32back in the flower field? It's because
22:32:34the golden elixir of human character
22:32:36only possesses spiritual consciousness
22:32:39but lacks supernatural powers. The
22:32:41watershed moment for the golden core
22:32:43stage appears here. The golden core
22:32:45cultivator only possesses spiritual
22:32:47consciousness. Most cultivators stop at
22:32:49the nent soul stage. Earth grade golden
22:32:52elixir not only possesses divine
22:32:54consciousness but can also comprehend
22:32:56supernatural powers thus having the
22:32:58potential to transform into a deity. As
22:33:01for the heavenly grade golden elixir,
22:33:03not only does it possess powerful divine
22:33:05sense and supernatural abilities, but it
22:33:08also allows one to gain early access to
22:33:10the power of laws, ultimately leading to
22:33:12immortality. At this moment, Su
22:33:15Chongqing<unk>s eyes were exceptionally
22:33:16firm. If I can cultivate this earth
22:33:18element fruit seed and then perform the
22:33:20fingerpointing technique every day, even
22:33:23if I succeed just once, it will be of
22:33:25great help to me. Actually, making money
22:33:28is secondary these days. If it could
22:33:30mutate into a space earth element fruit
22:33:33and be refined into a sum mustard seed,
22:33:35it would come with its own small space,
22:33:38and then we would no longer have to
22:33:39sneak around like thieves everyday. Then
22:33:42Su Chongqing turned around and went down
22:33:44the Rocky Mountain. But they didn't move
22:33:46the stone at the entrance, nor did they
22:33:48go inside. Whatever the reason for Zhu
22:33:50Fushians appearance here, it is
22:33:51something we should be wary of. In fact,
22:33:54it is necessary to transplant the
22:33:56mutated mother rice out of it as soon as
22:33:58possible and keep it by our side to take
22:34:00care of it. Without any hesitation, Su
22:34:02Chongqing turned and walked towards his
22:34:04own spiritual field. After returning to
22:34:07the second acre of spiritual field, he
22:34:09reared the earth element fruit. Since it
22:34:12doesn't harm the black soil, there's no
22:34:14need to worry about it. Moreover, this
22:34:16thing takes a very long time to grow. It
22:34:18took 10 years to take root and sprout.
22:34:21It takes 10 years to blossom and bear
22:34:23fruit. Even with the help of the Azure
22:34:25lotus domain to accelerate growth, it
22:34:27won't mature in just a few days. Next,
22:34:30while cultivating spiritual plants, Su
22:34:32Chonqing began to study the second fire
22:34:34tribute cultivation technique. What the
22:34:37fire crow cultivation method, the range
22:34:39that spiritual awareness can cover is
22:34:41ultimately too small. As long as others
22:34:43are a little far away, they won't
22:34:45notice. If you learn this technique, you
22:34:47can use the fire crow as your third eye.
22:34:49Its field of vision is much greater than
22:34:52its spiritual sense, enabling it to
22:34:54quickly detect people nearby. Moreover,
22:34:56Such Chanching also discovered staying
22:34:59near the golden crow vine during the day
22:35:01not only allows one to absorb fire
22:35:03spiritual energy, but more importantly,
22:35:05it seems to help in comprehending fire
22:35:07attribute cultivation techniques and
22:35:09spells. And so, the days passed one by
22:35:12one. Such Chongqing cultivated the
22:35:14golden crow vine during the day and
22:35:16studied the fire crowi cultivation
22:35:18method. He cultivated the bright moon
22:35:20grass at night. Whenever he had free
22:35:22time, he would brew spirit rice wine and
22:35:25yellow rice wine and also boil medicinal
22:35:27liquids to make labor strengthening
22:35:29pills. In short, my days were very
22:35:31fulfilling and I was basically never
22:35:33idle during this period. Hubuay rarely
22:35:36came except for trading ingredients.
22:35:38Ziao Xiwa only appears when he uses the
22:35:41minor cloud rain technique. As for
22:35:43Binger Bhuer, Jeang and others, there
22:35:46has been no further news of them. It
22:35:48seems that as the formal disciple
22:35:50competition draws closer, everyone is
22:35:52getting more serious. Once the frost
22:35:55descent solar term passes, the
22:35:57temperature in the core of the entire
22:35:58spiritual field drops sharply and the
22:36:01air becomes extremely cold. Such
22:36:03Chonqing was standing near the golden
22:36:05crow vine, which was already over a
22:36:07meter tall, cultivating it while
22:36:09studying the fire crow cultivation
22:36:11method that he was about to fully
22:36:13comprehend. Suddenly sensing something,
22:36:15I immediately looked to my left. a black
22:36:17that was rapidly approaching them. At
22:36:19the same time, a familiar sense of
22:36:21oppression could be felt. The wind
22:36:23howled, causing the surrounding trees
22:36:25and flowers to shake violently. Only
22:36:27when we got closer could we see what it
22:36:29was. A white crane with a wingspan of
22:36:31over 20 m. In the Donging immortal sect,
22:36:34the white crane, a mythical beast, holds
22:36:37a very high status. They rarely appear
22:36:39outside. Most of them gathered in the
22:36:41spirit beast valley. He chi Such
22:36:44Chongqing recognized him at a glance.
22:36:46The owner of this thousand-year-old
22:36:48spirit beast is Chu Chio, the current
22:36:50genius of the spirit beast valley. Now
22:36:53that it has appeared, the person who has
22:36:55arrived is obviously about to be
22:36:56revealed. Chapter 162 senior brother
22:36:59gifts a puppet. From then on, it's named
22:37:01fortress. Chapter 162 senior brother
22:37:04gifts puppet. From then on, the giant
22:37:07crane 7 a fortress appeared like a large
22:37:10shadow looming down. Those huge pink
22:37:12eyes looked down at the small humans on
22:37:14the edge of the field. Junior Brother
22:37:16Su, it's been a long time. Chuch
22:37:18Chio<unk>s voice rang out from the
22:37:19crane's back. Then he leaped down and
22:37:21landed steadily in the blink of an eye.
22:37:23As Su Chongqing bowed respectfully, he
22:37:25asked with a smile, "Senior brother Chu,
22:37:28it's been a long time. Has the dragon
22:37:30boat race ended?" Chuch Chio nodded
22:37:32slightly and said, "It just ended
22:37:34yesterday and I rushed back today." Su
22:37:36Chongqing pointed to the wooden house
22:37:38with his right hand and said, "You've
22:37:40worked hard. Why don't you come in and
22:37:42have a seat?" Chuchio waved his hand. I
22:37:45can't stay for too long. Then he looked
22:37:47around at the two acres of spiritual
22:37:49fields. Once a spirit farmer breaks
22:37:51through to the early stage of foundation
22:37:53establishment, they will be given 1 acre
22:37:55of grade two spirit field. The acre on
22:37:58the left is planted with a large amount
22:37:59of spirit rice as well as some
22:38:01vegetables. On the right side, the outer
22:38:04edge is covered with steaming golden
22:38:06crow vines and the inner edge is
22:38:08crescent-shaped bright moon grass. The
22:38:10one on the left is more common. The one
22:38:12on the right is rare. This is almost
22:38:14standard equipment for every spirit
22:38:16farmer in the foundation establishment
22:38:18stage. Two acres of sacred land. One
22:38:21acre to ensure basic living expenses and
22:38:23one acre to make a fortune. Su Chongqing
22:38:26blinked. Senior brother Chu, is there
22:38:28something you need to find me at the
22:38:29spirit field? Chuchio immediately
22:38:32replied, "Of course, it's<unk> to
22:38:33celebrate your foundation
22:38:34establishment." Before he could finish
22:38:36speaking, Hchi interrupted from behind.
22:38:39He kept talking about your spirit rice
22:38:41wine the whole way. Upon hearing this,
22:38:43Chuchio blushed and said rather
22:38:45awkwardly, "Junior Brother Su<unk>s
22:38:47spirit rice wine is indeed unique in the
22:38:49entire daunting immortal sect," "Hey,
22:38:52it's just spirit rice wine." Such
22:38:54Chongqing thought it was a big deal. He
22:38:56opened his right hand, and a pound of
22:38:58top grade spirit rice that he had
22:39:00prepared in advance appeared in his
22:39:01palm. The reason he still brews top
22:39:03grade spirit rice wine is to curry favor
22:39:06with these powerful figures. Therefore,
22:39:08storage space is always ready. No matter
22:39:10who comes, give them at least one pound.
22:39:13Chu Chio was stunned, not expecting the
22:39:15other party to be so generous. After
22:39:17thinking for a moment, he said, "Senior
22:39:20brother won't take your top grade spirit
22:39:21rice wine for nothing. If you get a top
22:39:2410 ranking in the thousand sales
22:39:25crossing competition, the reward is a
22:39:27highquality spirit weapon called Azure
22:39:29Dragon Rope." His storage device was
22:39:32neither a common storage bag nor the
22:39:33recently popular jade gourd, but a small
22:39:36and exquisite gray black storage ring.
22:39:38With a sudden thought, two items
22:39:40appeared in his left and right hands,
22:39:42respectively. Su Chongqing glanced
22:39:44around and saw on the left side the
22:39:46Azure dragon rope woven from dragon
22:39:48whiskers and spirit vines. It not only
22:39:51contains the terrifying baleful aura of
22:39:53the Azure dragon, but also exudes a rich
22:39:56water elemental power. I don't recognize
22:39:58the one on the right. It looks like a
22:40:00small wooden puppet, and it's quite
22:40:01ordinary overall. Seeing the doubt in
22:40:04the other person's eyes, Chucho
22:40:06explained. On the way back, I ran into
22:40:08an idiot. This guy was also in the top
22:40:1010 and actually tried to rob me. And
22:40:12then, "You know what happened?" Such
22:40:14Chongqing immediately understood and
22:40:16asked with a smile, "What is this?"
22:40:18Chuchio explained, "This thing is called
22:40:21the wood spirit puppet. It's a puppet
22:40:23made of wood spirit energy. It will
22:40:25enlarge when infused with wood spirit
22:40:27energy and then help you with some
22:40:28simple tasks." Such Chonqing said, "Oh,"
22:40:32indicating that he understood. He had
22:40:34read about puppetry in books. It was a
22:40:36relatively novel puppet mechanism
22:40:37technique that had emerged in the last
22:40:39thousand years. Chuchio said
22:40:41magnanimously. Junior brother Sue, you
22:40:43have a with spirit route, so you should
22:40:45definitely choose this with spirit
22:40:47puppet first. But if you like this as
22:40:49your dragon rope, that's fine, too. A
22:40:52magical artifact. I have it myself. Or
22:40:54even better, mythical beast. I possess
22:40:57it myself, and it's at the thousand-year
22:40:59level. The reason I participated in the
22:41:01thousand sales racing competition was
22:41:03purely to give Xiao Chin face. This
22:41:05magical artifact, a puppet, is better
22:41:08given to Sue Chongqing than left to
22:41:10gather dust. It would be a good
22:41:11opportunity to bring the two of them
22:41:13closer. That way, it won't be so awkward
22:41:16to ask the other party for spirit rice
22:41:17wine next time. When it comes to human
22:41:19relationships, Su Chongqing never
22:41:21disappoints. He decisively chose the
22:41:24with spirit puppet. After all, the Azure
22:41:26Dragon rope requires water elemental
22:41:28power to use, which is perfect for Chuch
22:41:31Chio, who has both water and wood
22:41:33elemental roots. If I were to take it
22:41:35myself, it would either gather dust or
22:41:37be sold. After putting everything away,
22:41:39he took back the pound of top grade
22:41:41spirit rice wine he was holding. Chuch
22:41:43Chio was stunned for a moment, not quite
22:41:45understanding what this meant. Su
22:41:47Chongqing chuckled and said, "Such a
22:41:49precious gift. If I only give senior
22:41:52brother Chu a pound of top grade spirit
22:41:54rice wine, then I would be too stingy.
22:41:56After saying that, he immediately walked
22:41:58towards his own wooden house. When he
22:42:01came out again, he was carrying 20
22:42:02caddies of top grade spirit rice wine.
22:42:05Upon seeing this, Chu Chio<unk>s eyes
22:42:07lit up. This junior brother Sue is
22:42:09really a real friend. Su Chongqing
22:42:12handed 20 caddies of top grade spirit
22:42:14rice wine to the other party and then
22:42:16smiled and said, "If senior brother Chu
22:42:18finishes drinking it, just use the
22:42:20communication talisman to let me know
22:42:22and I will send it directly to the
22:42:24spirit beast valley." After accepting
22:42:26the gift, Chu Chio smiled and said,
22:42:29"There's no need to trouble Junior
22:42:30Brother Su. If you finish drinking, I'll
22:42:32come over myself when I have time, or I
22:42:34can have Hi come." Hi gave a rather
22:42:37arrogant snort. After chatting casually
22:42:39for a while, Chuchio excused himself and
22:42:42left, saying he needed to participate in
22:42:44the formal disciple competition. The
22:42:47enormous white crane moved with
22:42:49lightning speed, disappearing into the
22:42:51horizon in an instant. Such Chongqing
22:42:53turned his gaze away and then looked at
22:42:55the wooden spirit puppet in his hand. If
22:42:57this thing can really help, then I won't
22:42:59have to get up early every morning to
22:43:01clean up the droppings of my guinea foul
22:43:03and other birds. There's no need to
22:43:05travel to distant places to bring back
22:43:07clean spring water. Everything can be
22:43:09entrusted to this with spirit puppet,
22:43:11but the premise is that this thing is
22:43:13actually useful. Such Chanqing pondered,
22:43:15"It's a relatively rare puppet, so it
22:43:17shouldn't disappoint me." He immediately
22:43:19infused it with his own wood elemental
22:43:21power. With a click, the puppet seemed
22:43:24to come to life. As its body grew
22:43:26larger, its weight also increased little
22:43:28by little. Su Chongqing casually tossed
22:43:30it onto the ridge in front of him.
22:43:32Before long, the originally small puppet
22:43:34was enlarged several times, even
22:43:36reaching a height of 2 meters and looked
22:43:38like a stiff green tree man. Its eyes
22:43:41are quite wise, almost as intelligent as
22:43:43wants. They stood still, neither
22:43:46speaking nor moving. I almost forgot. I
22:43:49also need to leave a double imprint of
22:43:50blood and spiritual consciousness. Su
22:43:53Chongqing suddenly remembered and
22:43:55quickly forced out a drop of his own
22:43:57blood. Sure enough, after the dual
22:43:59imprints of blood and consciousness were
22:44:01left behind, the puppet, which had
22:44:03originally possessed a wise gaze,
22:44:05gradually developed eyes that shone like
22:44:07emeralds. At the same time, Su Chongqing
22:44:10and it developed a deep connection. This
22:44:12thing is similar to magical artifacts
22:44:14and magical beasts. It can be given
22:44:16instructions and commands, or it can be
22:44:18allowed to perform its own functions. A
22:44:21deep voice came from the wooden spirit
22:44:23puppet's mouth. Master Such Chanqing
22:44:25looked him up and down. then instructed,
22:44:28"From now on, you will be called
22:44:30fortress. You will be responsible for
22:44:32guarding the spirit fields for me,
22:44:34cleaning up the dog poop, chicken poop,
22:44:36and weeds nearby, and fetching clean
22:44:38spring water from a more distant place."
22:44:40Fortress's eyes shown like torches as he
22:44:42nodded vigorously, saying, "Yes,
22:44:44master." Chapter 163, Introduction to
22:44:47the Fire Crow technique, tasting pills
22:44:50in the Earth Fire Zone. Chapter 163.
22:44:52Introduction to the firecrow technique.
22:44:55Tasting pills in the earth fire zone.
22:44:57Bang. Bang. Bang. The puppet fortress is
22:45:00centered around a wooden house and a
22:45:02spirit field, and it will circle around
22:45:04it from time to time to check if it
22:45:06needs to clean up manure, pull weeds,
22:45:08carry water, and chop firewood. Wong had
22:45:11just found a perfect spot to poop and
22:45:13excitedly spun around several times.
22:45:15After determining the angle and
22:45:17position, he was bearing his teeth,
22:45:19ready to strain. Suddenly noticing
22:45:21something, he glanced behind him. The 2-
22:45:23m high fortress was staring intently at
22:45:25him. No, to be precise, it's the part of
22:45:28your body that excretes. Now we're in a
22:45:30bind. We can't pull it out, and we can't
22:45:32not pull it out either. A dog and a
22:45:34puppet. You look at me, I look at you.
22:45:37They remained locked in this awkward
22:45:38position for quite a while. Finally,
22:45:41Wong Wong couldn't hold back any longer.
22:45:43He muttered a few curses, then tucked
22:45:45his tail between his legs and ran at top
22:45:47speed toward the distant Rocky Mountain.
22:45:49Huh? Such Chongqing laughed gleefully
22:45:52when he saw this. However, he had no
22:45:54intention of intervening. Wong Wong
22:45:56liked to defecate in front of the house
22:45:58anyway, so it would be good to let Bow
22:46:00Bao teach him a lesson so he would
22:46:01remember it in the future. Then, he
22:46:03continued to stand beside the golden
22:46:05crow vine and comprehend the fire crow
22:46:07chi cultivation method. It was almost
22:46:10noon and time to cook. Suddenly, I had a
22:46:12feeling and then I looked at the
22:46:14attribute panel. Fire crow cultivation
22:46:16method level one effect one contract of
22:46:19fire crow as expected of a low-level
22:46:22incomplete cultivation technique. I've
22:46:24mastered it so quickly. Of course, the
22:46:27most important point is actually the
22:46:28knowledge reserves combined with the
22:46:30occasional state of sudden enlightenment
22:46:32which indirectly affects Su
22:46:34Chongqing<unk>s current comprehension.
22:46:36In the past, it would probably have
22:46:37taken half a month or even a month to
22:46:39get the hang of it. But now with the
22:46:41help of the heat from the golden crow
22:46:43vine and various auxiliary effects, I
22:46:45was able to easily master the basics in
22:46:47just a few days. Would you like to
22:46:49sacrifice two years of your lifespan to
22:46:51upgrade the fire crow cultivation
22:46:53technique to level two? Su Chongqing
22:46:56resolutely refused. No, let's repair
22:46:59this incomplete piece first. The system
22:47:01quickly made adjustments. Should I
22:47:03sacrifice 10 years of my lifespan to
22:47:05fully repair the fire crow cultivation
22:47:08technique? Yes. This time, Such
22:47:10Chongqing did not refuse. He immediately
22:47:13entered a state similar to an epiphany.
22:47:15By combining current knowledge,
22:47:17experience, skills, and other factors,
22:47:20we will gradually improve and eventually
22:47:22complete this incomplete work. Suddenly,
22:47:24the content above changed. Fire crow
22:47:27cultivation method level one. Effect
22:47:29one, contract a fire crow. Effect two,
22:47:32share vision with the fire crow. If it's
22:47:34a fragment, the second normal effect
22:47:36will only appear when it's upgraded to
22:47:38level two. But now the first layer
22:47:41appears after the repair is complete.
22:47:43Immediately afterwards, another prompt
22:47:45appeared. Would you like to consume one
22:47:47year of your lifespan to upgrade the
22:47:49fire crow cultivation technique to level
22:47:51two, shortened by one year? Such
22:47:53Chonqing nodded slightly upon seeing
22:47:55this. Yes. In just a moment, the fire
22:47:58crow cultivation technique was raised to
22:48:01the second level. Fire crow cultivation
22:48:03method level two effect one contract a
22:48:06fire crow effect two share vision with
22:48:09the fire crow effect three the fire crow
22:48:12can breathe fires chonqing observed this
22:48:15and thought to himself in the end it's
22:48:17just a low-level technique each
22:48:19improvement doesn't bring much surprise
22:48:21without hesitation he immediately maxed
22:48:24out the fire crochi cultivation method
22:48:26because I had already mastered all the
22:48:28content during the repair process I did
22:48:30not enter that state of sudden
22:48:32enlightenment again. Everything happened
22:48:34naturally. The ascent ended after two
22:48:36breaths. Remaining lifespan 680 years.
22:48:40Fire crow chi cultivation method level
22:48:43five. Effect one can contract five fire
22:48:46crows. Effect two shares vision with all
22:48:49fire crows. Effect three, the fire crow
22:48:52can breathe high temperature flames.
22:48:54Effect four, each fire crow generates
22:48:56one drop of fire spirit liquid every 10
22:48:59hours. Effect five, the fire raven
22:49:01possesses the intelligence of a
22:49:03three-year-old child and can learn
22:49:04simple commands. Special effect one,
22:49:07when forming a fire crow formation and
22:49:09combining it with a fire tribute
22:49:10artifact, its power is doubled. With
22:49:13this, the upgrade of this low-level
22:49:15cultivation technique, firecrow chi
22:49:17cultivation method, is complete.
22:49:19Overall, it's not particularly
22:49:21impressive, but for Su Chongqing now,
22:49:23it's enough. After all, the main reason
22:49:26he controlled these fire crows was for
22:49:28surveillance purposes. To prevent a
22:49:30repeat of last time when Zhu Fushian
22:49:32almost discovered the secret beneath the
22:49:34stone mountain. Since the fire crow is a
22:49:36type of spirit beast, we need to ask
22:49:38Hubuay for help with this. Without even
22:49:41cooking lunch, Su Chonqing immediately
22:49:43pulled out the other party's
22:49:44communication talisman. Hello, it's me,
22:49:47Old Su. What's up? I want to buy a few
22:49:49fire crows. Why buy a bird? Can't I just
22:49:52play? Can't you just play with your own
22:49:54bird? Go to hell. After joking, Hubuay
22:49:57said it was a bit difficult. This
22:49:59puzzled Su Chongqing. How many more fire
22:50:01crows is the spirit beast valley
22:50:03missing? Hubui quickly explained.
22:50:06Because fire crows like to devour fire
22:50:08energy, there aren't many in the spirit
22:50:10beast valley. Su Chongqing asked
22:50:12thoughtfully, "Where can I find it?"
22:50:14Hubui immediately said, "The Earth Fire
22:50:16Zone of the Alchemy Pavilion is
22:50:18inhabited by many fire crows. If you
22:50:21really want it, I can help you make
22:50:22connections and find someone you know.
22:50:25Okay. Such Chongqing certainly wanted it
22:50:27and was very eager to have it. And so
22:50:30the two agreed to go together to the
22:50:31Earth Fire Zone where the Alchemy
22:50:33Pavilion was located after lunch. After
22:50:36the communication ended, Su Chongqing
22:50:38walked towards the wooden house and
22:50:39began to prepare lunch. During the meal,
22:50:42Wong Wong rubbed against his feet with a
22:50:44fawning expression. His eyes would
22:50:46occasionally dart to the motionless
22:50:48wooden fortress outside. It's as if it's
22:50:50saying, "Master, please do something
22:50:52about it." Such Chanqing immediately
22:50:55understood, but he simply ignored the
22:50:57guy and pretended not to see him. Wong
22:50:59Wong persisted for a while, but when he
22:51:01saw that pleasing him was useless, he
22:51:03immediately started to whine angrily.
22:51:06About an hour later, Hubu returned. The
22:51:09two chatted as they rode the large
22:51:10leafed grass toward the fire zone. As we
22:51:13get closer, the chill is gradually
22:51:15fading. In the subterranean fire zone,
22:51:17there is no spring, autumn, or winter.
22:51:20There is only summer. Dry and scorching
22:51:22hot are everything here. Many
22:51:24cultivators even specifically choose to
22:51:26come to the earthfire zone in winter to
22:51:28escape the cold. However, when Su
22:51:31Chongqing and Hubu arrived, they found
22:51:33the place to be very lively. The
22:51:35streets, which are usually deserted due
22:51:37to the sweltering heat, were now teeming
22:51:40with people, all of them cultivators
22:51:41with different spiritual roots.
22:51:43Suddenly, Su Chongqing recognized an
22:51:46acquaintance and immediately led Hubu up
22:51:48to greet him. Senior sister, you su
22:51:50Chongqing bowed respectfully. Yukaiing
22:51:53was staring at the alchemy tools on the
22:51:55stall in front of her when she heard the
22:51:56noise and turned around. She saw the
22:51:59spirit farmer she was working with and
22:52:00exclaimed, "It's you." Su Chongqing
22:52:03introduced Hubu, then asked curiously,
22:52:06"Senior sister Yu, why is the entire
22:52:08Earthfire District so lively today?"
22:52:10Yukaiing replied, "The pill tasting
22:52:13event hosted by the pill refining
22:52:14pavilion is about to begin. The prices
22:52:16are lower than usual. So many
22:52:18cultivators who need pills will come and
22:52:20take a look." Upon hearing this, Su
22:52:23Chongqing and Hubu exchanged a glance,
22:52:25both with expressions of, "I see." One
22:52:28lives in the sacred field, detached from
22:52:30worldly affairs. One of them was
22:52:32diligently carrying manure in the spirit
22:52:34beast valley. I really didn't know that
22:52:36the alchemy pavilion would be holding a
22:52:39alchemy tasting gathering in the
22:52:40Earthfire zone at this time. At this
22:52:43moment, you Kaiing extended an
22:52:44invitation. Now that you're here, would
22:52:46you like to come with me? Chapter 164,
22:52:49accept her invitation. Go by the fire
22:52:51crow first. Chapter 164, accept her
22:52:54invitation. Go by fire crows first. Of
22:52:57course, we can go together, but the two
22:52:58of you suing
22:53:00hesitated. Yukaiing frowned slightly.
22:53:03Speak plainly. I don't like guessing.
22:53:05Such Chanqing pointed at Hubu and said,
22:53:08"He still has some things to do."
22:53:10Yukaiing said thoughtfully. There is
22:53:12still half an hour before the pill
22:53:13tasting competition begins. I can wait
22:53:16for half an hour. Upon hearing that the
22:53:18person in front of him was a senior
22:53:19alchemist who Booi became quite nervous
22:53:22and immediately assured her, "Don't
22:53:24worry, senior sister. It will be done in
22:53:27less than half an hour and it will not
22:53:29delay you and Lao Su from attending the
22:53:31pill tasting meeting." Yu Kaiing nodded
22:53:33slightly. In that case, you may go about
22:53:36your business. Such Chanqing and Hubui
22:53:39exchanged a glance, then walked to the
22:53:41other side. For this purchase of Fire
22:53:43Crows, Hub Buguay had asked an
22:53:45acquaintance to act as a go-between.
22:53:47Everything was arranged, and if they
22:53:49didn't meet in person, although it
22:53:50wouldn't necessarily lead to a falling
22:53:52out, the favor would be wasted. No one
22:53:55in business likes to waste time and
22:53:56effort on personal relationships. After
22:53:59all, each use is one less time
22:54:01available, and it's also easy to cause
22:54:03dissatisfaction among others. This is
22:54:05why Su Chongqing did not immediately
22:54:07accept Yuda<unk>s invitation. Half an
22:54:10hour, which is equivalent to an hour, is
22:54:12enough to buy five fire crows. It
22:54:14shouldn't be a problem. Following that,
22:54:16under Hubuay's guidance, the two
22:54:18ventured even deeper into the fiery
22:54:20zone. But the direction wasn't the
22:54:22deepest tower, but rather a more
22:54:24desolate area on the other side. There
22:54:26are no trees here, only cracked ground,
22:54:29dry air, and scorching heat. As they
22:54:31went deeper, both Su Chongqing and Hubay
22:54:34could see many fire crows circling in
22:54:37the sky. Crows are black. The fire crow
22:54:39is red. When it flies, it looks like a
22:54:42streak of blood red light. A large crack
22:54:44appeared ahead. Although the underground
22:54:46fire could not be seen, the high
22:54:48temperature could be felt. Strangely, a
22:54:50stone house stood right next to the
22:54:52large crack. Hubway's eyes lit up. Old
22:54:55Su, we've arrived at the place to buy
22:54:57firecrows. Su Chongqing couldn't help
22:54:59but ask, is the seller from the spirit
22:55:02beast valley or the alchemy pavilion?
22:55:04Hubui chuckled. This person does indeed
22:55:07have a fire elemental route, but he has
22:55:09a deep connection with the spirit beast
22:55:11valley. Before long, the two arrived at
22:55:14the entrance of the stone house. The
22:55:15temperature here is too high. They are
22:55:17all drenched in sweat. Fortunately, at
22:55:20that moment, the stonehouse door opened
22:55:22with a creek. A lean man walked out of
22:55:24there step by step. Who Buguay's eyes
22:55:26lit up and he quickly asked, "Is it
22:55:28senior brother Lui?" Lui glanced at the
22:55:31two men in front of him and asked in a
22:55:33deep voice, "You two are the people Wong
22:55:35Xiang introduced to by fire crows."
22:55:37"Yes, yes, yes." Su Chongqing and Hubui
22:55:41immediately stepped forward. Lui didn't
22:55:43waste any words. One ordinary fire crow
22:55:46costs 20 low-grade spirit stones. Five
22:55:49costs 100. Considering Wong Xiang<unk>s
22:55:51introduction, I'll give you a discount
22:55:53and give you 90 low-grade spirit stones.
22:55:56Ordinary firecrow. Upon hearing this, Su
22:55:59Chongqing asked with considerable
22:56:01curiosity. Could there be other
22:56:02extraordinary fire crows? Lui nodded
22:56:05slightly. Firecrows are a type of spirit
22:56:07beast that likes to live in groups. If
22:56:10there are five or more, a leader fire
22:56:12crow may evolve. If there are dozens or
22:56:14hundreds, a fire crow king may appear.
22:56:16The price will naturally be different
22:56:18depending on the status, strength, and
22:56:20potential. Su Chongqing was quite
22:56:22intrigued. This firecrow leader, Lui
22:56:25said with a half smile. A firecrow
22:56:27leader costs 50 mgrade spirit stones.
22:56:30Upon hearing this, Su Choning<unk>s
22:56:32expression changed slightly. He was
22:56:34indeed rich. He could easily come up
22:56:36with 500 mid-grade spirit stones, let
22:56:39alone 50. But spending so many spirit
22:56:41stones for a mere firecrow leader seems
22:56:44unnecessary. Hub Buguay raised an
22:56:46eyebrow and said, "I remember that as
22:56:48long as there is enough food, such as
22:56:50feeding the fire crow things like fire
22:56:52energy, crimson flame crystals, and fire
22:56:55spirit rice, it can also evolve, right?"
22:56:57Lui said calmly. "Of course, it's
22:57:00possible, but it will take some time and
22:57:01a bit of luck. After all, different fire
22:57:04crow leaders have different potential
22:57:06unless." Hubui was very curious about
22:57:08this and hurriedly asked. Unless what?
22:57:11Lui shrugged. Unless you feed them the
22:57:13rare spiritual plant, Phoenix feather,
22:57:16just one plant can evolve any fire crow
22:57:18into a firecrow leader, and the fire
22:57:20crow leader can evolve into a fire crow
22:57:22king. Phoenix feathers, Su Chongqing
22:57:25thought to himself. If I remember
22:57:27correctly, I do have a phoenix feather.
22:57:29Last time when I helped Jang Su harvest
22:57:31the firetail grass, I tried using my
22:57:33green finger, and to my surprise, a
22:57:35mutated spiritual plant actually
22:57:37appeared, which happened to be the
22:57:39phoenix feather that Lui mentioned. The
22:57:41problem is this thing is worth far more
22:57:43than a fire raven leader or even a fire
22:57:45raven king because it is one of the main
22:57:47ingredients of the earthrade elixir
22:57:49nirvana pill. A single phoenix feather
22:57:52can be sold for 3,000 mid-grade spirit
22:57:55stones. That's enough to buy 60 fire
22:57:57raven leaders. Using it to feed animals
22:57:59is a terrible waste. Lui urged, "Have
22:58:02you made up your mind?" Such Chongqing
22:58:04came to his senses. Five ordinary fire
22:58:07crows will do. Lui nodded, then called
22:58:10out, "Come with me." Immediately, Su
22:58:12Chongqing and Hubu followed behind each
22:58:15other. The three of them approached the
22:58:16depths of the great crevice step by
22:58:18step. The intense heat distorted the air
22:58:21itself. "The closer you are, the greater
22:58:23the pressure you feel." As Lui led the
22:58:26way, he said, "These fire crows are
22:58:28particularly greedy. They will curiously
22:58:30take a bite of anything related to fire.
22:58:32This method of catching them is always
22:58:34effective." Then Su Chongqing saw the
22:58:37man take out some red pills from his
22:58:38storage bag. If he remembered correctly,
22:58:41this should be the fireinducing pill, a
22:58:43type of fire attribute elixir. Its
22:58:45purpose is to lure fire attribute spirit
22:58:48beasts and monsters into consuming it.
22:58:50Anyone who eats it will fall into a coma
22:58:52for a period of time. It seems that Lui
22:58:55captured the fire crows in this way.
22:58:57It's so simple. In theory, anyone with a
22:58:59fire elemental root could succeed. It
22:59:02seems that this person's true strength
22:59:04or irreplaceable advantage is related to
22:59:06the firecrow leader or even the fire
22:59:08crow king mentioned earlier. After the
22:59:11three of them ventured a little further,
22:59:12they finally stopped. Lui looked around
22:59:15carefully, observing the surroundings to
22:59:17see if there were any fire crows nearby.
22:59:19Although the fire crow is not very
22:59:21intelligent, it is extremely alert. At
22:59:23the slightest disturbance, it will fly
22:59:25into the great crack and hide deep
22:59:27within the subterranean fire. After
22:59:30confirming that there were no spirit
22:59:31beasts nearby, Lui placed the few fire
22:59:34attracting pills he was holding in the
22:59:35most conspicuous open space and then
22:59:38asked the two people behind him, "Did
22:59:40you bring spirit beast rings?" Upon
22:59:42hearing this, Su Chanching immediately
22:59:44took one out of the green gourd. "I have
22:59:46one." This was a year ago when Hubu gave
22:59:49away the pearl chicken. He also brought
22:59:51the spirit beast ring along with it. Its
22:59:53main function is that it has a very
22:59:55small internal space that can store a
22:59:57few small spirit beasts. Lui was very
23:00:00satisfied with what he saw. Very good. I
23:00:02finally met a customer who can save me
23:00:04spirit stones. Su Chongqing asked in a
23:00:07low voice. What do you need this for?
23:00:09Lui grinned. Of course, it's used to
23:00:11hold fire crows. Gou
23:00:14ja. Seemingly sensing the fiery aura
23:00:17emanating from the fire inducing pill.
23:00:19Several fire crows quickly gathered
23:00:21around, circling in the sky and emitting
23:00:23horse cries. Chapter 165. finding Yukai
23:00:27and meeting Taiu and Yu in chapter 165.
23:00:31After finding Yuka Ching and confirming
23:00:33that there was no threat nearby, Tanti
23:00:35Yuan Yu with her red body swooping down,
23:00:38instantly transformed into a burning
23:00:40streak of light and swallowed a fire
23:00:42attracting pill. Once the first animal
23:00:45starts eating and there is no danger,
23:00:47the herd mentality is triggered. One
23:00:49after another, fire crows swooped down
23:00:51from above, vying for the fire
23:00:53attracting pills. In just a short while,
23:00:55seven or eight of them couldn't resist
23:00:57the temptation. Seeing this, Su
23:00:59Chongqing and Hubui were quite excited.
23:01:02Firstly, the speed at which fire crows
23:01:04can be obtained is very fast. Secondly,
23:01:06it can be done in less than half an
23:01:08hour. Not long after, the first fire
23:01:11crow that ate the fire attracting pill
23:01:12gradually lost consciousness and
23:01:14experienced double vision as it flew.
23:01:17After swaying in the air a few times, it
23:01:19finally fell downwards. Then with a loud
23:01:22bang, dust was kicked up everywhere.
23:01:24Then like dumplings being dropped into a
23:01:26pot, one firecrow after another, having
23:01:29eaten the fire attracting pill fell
23:01:31uncontrollably. However, because they
23:01:34fly and glide in the sky, they cannot
23:01:36control where they fall. Some were lucky
23:01:38enough to fall to the ground. Some fell
23:01:40directly into the large crack.
23:01:42Fortunately, we were lucky this time and
23:01:44managed to catch six fire crows. Lui
23:01:46called out, "Let's go. The effects of
23:01:48the fireinducing pills won't last long.
23:01:51We need to throw them all into the
23:01:52spirit beast enclosure as soon as
23:01:54possible. Such Chongqing hurriedly
23:01:56stepped forward and injected his own
23:01:58wood elemental power into the spirit
23:02:00beast ring, activating it instantly. It
23:02:03immediately sucked in the fire crows
23:02:05that had fallen to the ground one after
23:02:07another. In just a short while, they had
23:02:09already caught five. Hubuay pointed to
23:02:11the sixth fire crow and asked, "What
23:02:13about this one?" Lui grabbed it and
23:02:16said, "Matter of factly, I'll keep it
23:02:17for myself." Having obtained the fire
23:02:20crow, Su Chongqing readily gave him 90
23:02:22low-grade spirit stones, "I've mastered
23:02:24the catching technique. I can do it
23:02:26myself next time." Lui took the spirit
23:02:29stone, waited in his hand for a few
23:02:30moments, and then tossed it into his
23:02:32storage bag. He then smiled and said,
23:02:35"Fellow Dawist, if you want to tame the
23:02:37fire crows, you have to starve them for
23:02:39a while first. They'll only obey when
23:02:41they've given in." "Okay." Su Chonqing
23:02:43nodded. Lui continued. Of course, if you
23:02:46need help, whether it's taming or
23:02:48breeding, considering how smoothly our
23:02:50first collaboration went, I'll
23:02:52definitely help with three mid-grade
23:02:53spirit stones. Su Chonqing wasn't
23:02:56stupid. He immediately understood what
23:02:58the man meant. For the vast majority of
23:03:00people, especially those who do not have
23:03:02a fire elemental route, taming a fire
23:03:04crow in a short period of time is almost
23:03:07an impossible task. But the other party
23:03:09certainly didn't expect that Su
23:03:11Chongqing not only had a fire spirit
23:03:13route but also learned the fire crowchi
23:03:15cultivation method. Once these five fire
23:03:18crows are brought home, they can be
23:03:19tamed quickly without his help.
23:03:21Therefore, I politely declined. Seeing
23:03:23this, Loui didn't press the matter. He
23:03:26had encountered too many people like
23:03:27this. I always felt like I was a
23:03:29cultivator and that I could easily
23:03:31handle such trivial matters. After much
23:03:34effort, the fire crows were not only not
23:03:36tamed, but several were even killed
23:03:38before they finally learned their
23:03:39lesson. When the time comes, considering
23:03:42their needs, they will definitely come
23:03:43back here to seek his help again. And in
23:03:45this way, they can make another fortune.
23:03:47Afterwards, Su Chongqing and Hubu left
23:03:50with five fire crows. As we moved
23:03:52further away from the large crack, the
23:03:54temperature decreased slightly, but
23:03:56that's all. It's still unbearably hot.
23:03:59Hubuay pondered. Old Sue, now that we've
23:04:02got the fire crow, shall I take my
23:04:03leave? After all, Su Chongqing and
23:04:06Yukaiing are partners, so there is no
23:04:08problem for them to attend the pill
23:04:10tasting conference together. If I were
23:04:12to approach him without any reason, it
23:04:14might offend this highle alchemist. Of
23:04:16course, these are all secondary issues.
23:04:18If this affects my good friend, then
23:04:20things will be bad. Such Chanqing
23:04:22pondered and said, "All right, you go
23:04:24back to the spirit beast valley first."
23:04:27Just as Ubuguay was about to leave. He
23:04:29suddenly remembered something and
23:04:31immediately asked, "Is there enough
23:04:32excrement?" Su Chongqing carefully
23:04:35recalled the storage situation, then
23:04:37asked in return, "Only one/3 is left.
23:04:40Why don't you unload some when you go
23:04:41back?" "Of course, no problem." Hubuay
23:04:44patted his chest and made a guarantee
23:04:46with a smile. Then he summoned his mode
23:04:48of transportation. It was still that
23:04:50same enormous camel, which immediately
23:04:53galloped away. Dust billowed up and Su
23:04:55Chongqin quickly dodged to avoid getting
23:04:57his face covered in it. Then he retraced
23:04:59his steps and walked back. Now there are
23:05:02still at least 25 minutes or half an
23:05:05hour left before the agreed upon half
23:05:07hour with senior sister Yu. Not long
23:05:09after Su Chongqing reappeared on the
23:05:11streets of the Earthfire zone. The
23:05:13surrounding area was filled with people
23:05:15who had come to participate in the
23:05:16alchemy tasting event and they had all
23:05:18kinds of spiritual roots. Moreover, it's
23:05:21not just formal disciples, but even core
23:05:23disciples. Several people appeared when
23:05:25Chu Chio and Lion challenged each other
23:05:27to a duel. If we were to name the person
23:05:29who left the deepest impression on Su
23:05:31Chongqing, besides the one from the Chio
23:05:34family, it would be Tanti Yuyu, who sat
23:05:37cross-legged inside the seven-story
23:05:38crystal tower. Although I didn't see
23:05:40her, I did see a seven-story crystal
23:05:42tower floating in the air with dreamlike
23:05:45seven-colored clouds hanging down from
23:05:47its four corners. This also attracted a
23:05:49lot of attention, but no one dared to
23:05:51approach it easily. After all, Tanti
23:05:53Yuanu was not only a core disciple, but
23:05:56his cultivation level had already
23:05:57reached the Earthrade golden core stage.
23:06:00No golden core cultivator is someone
23:06:02that a mere chi refining or foundation
23:06:04establishment cultivator can afford to
23:06:06offend. Su Chongqing searched for a long
23:06:08time, but couldn't find you, Kaiing. So,
23:06:11he had to take out her communication
23:06:12talisman. Hello, senior sister. You I'm
23:06:15back. Where are you? If you follow the
23:06:17direction of the pill tower, there's a
23:06:19tea house called Denimlu. I'll be
23:06:21inside. Okay, I'm coming right away.
23:06:24Such Chongqing knew where Donin Tower
23:06:26was. Of course, he had been there the
23:06:28first time he came to the Earthfire
23:06:29District, so it was not unfamiliar to
23:06:31him. After putting down Yud Saiing<unk>s
23:06:33communication talisman, he immediately
23:06:35changed direction and headed towards
23:06:37Doning Tower. There were so many people
23:06:39drinking tea and chatting at Denla
23:06:41today. The first and second floors were
23:06:43almost full. As everyone knows, the
23:06:45first floor is mostly occupied by
23:06:47apprentices with fire elemental roots.
23:06:50Those who can go up to the second floor
23:06:52must be at least novice alchemists.
23:06:54However, when Su Chongqing arrived on
23:06:56the second floor, he still couldn't find
23:06:58Yuka. Now, only the third floor, which
23:07:01I've never been to, remains. Just as Su
23:07:04Chongqing was about to go up, he was
23:07:06stopped by a burly man. Fellow Daist,
23:07:08I'm sorry. Only advanced alchemists and
23:07:11core disciples can go up to the third
23:07:12floor. Such Chonqing looked the other
23:07:14person up and down, then asked, "You
23:07:17know Yukai Ching, right?" The burly man
23:07:19nodded. She's a famous beauty in the
23:07:21Earth Fire Zone and also a highle
23:07:23alchemist. Su Chonqing immediately
23:07:26replied, "You asked me to come find
23:07:28her." Upon hearing this, the burly man
23:07:30frowned. She is chatting with Master
23:07:32Tanti. I cannot confirm whether what you
23:07:35said is true or false. This means that
23:07:37although he knew Yu Saqing<unk>s
23:07:39identity. However, Su Chanqing still did
23:07:41not have the qualifications to go up.
23:07:43After all, there was a golden core
23:07:45cultivator above him. If I disturb them,
23:07:47I'll be in big trouble. Just then, a
23:07:50soft, gentle voice came from the third
23:07:52floor. Let him come up. The burly man
23:07:54paused for a moment upon hearing this,
23:07:56then stepped aside to make way for the
23:07:58stairwell. Since you have received
23:08:00permission from Master Tai, please go
23:08:02up. Su Chongqing knew that the other
23:08:05party was doing his duty, so he did not
23:08:07make things difficult for him. He cuped
23:08:08his hands in greeting and then stepped
23:08:10up the stairs to the third floor. This
23:08:12floor has no doors or windows resembling
23:08:15a giant pavilion. There were only two
23:08:17people drinking tea here and they were
23:08:19all women who one of them is Yuka, a
23:08:22famous and beautiful alchemist from the
23:08:24alchemy pavilion. One of them is a core
23:08:27disciple, a golden core cultivator,
23:08:29Tantiu and Yu. Chapter 166 Pisces as
23:08:32sisters internal pill tasting meeting.
23:08:35Chapter 166 Pisces are sisters. At the
23:08:38internal alchemy gathering, Tanti Yuyu
23:08:40was covered by a semi-transparent snow
23:08:42white gauze on which lotus patterns were
23:08:44embroidered with gold thread. The
23:08:46outline of her jade-like jaw was vaguely
23:08:48visible, but her full appearance was not
23:08:51clear. Her eyes were clear and cold,
23:08:53like a deep pool in an ancient temple
23:08:56where wisdom arises from stillness. Her
23:08:58figure was slender like a green bamboo
23:09:00under the moon. Her shoulders were like
23:09:02carved jade, and her waist was like a
23:09:04bound ribbon. She was slender and
23:09:06graceful, lacking the usual feminine
23:09:09charm of female cultivators. She wore a
23:09:11flowing wide-sleeved gauze dress with a
23:09:14small bronze bell hanging at her waist
23:09:16and was surrounded by a faint, almost
23:09:18imperceptible scent of sandalwood.
23:09:20Master Tanti, Senior Sister Yu, Su
23:09:23Chongqing, hadn't forgotten the burly
23:09:25man's reminder downstairs. So, he
23:09:27treated both Yukaiing and Tanti Yu and
23:09:29Yu with great respect, who told him he
23:09:31was just a foundation establishment
23:09:33stage spiritual farmer, while one of
23:09:35them was a genius and beautiful
23:09:36alchemist, and the other was a core
23:09:38disciple and a golden core master. Yu
23:09:41Kaiing put down her teacup. Are you done
23:09:43with your work? Su Choning nodded. Yes,
23:09:46I'm done. Yu-guing introduced Tanti Yuan
23:09:48Yu across from her. Sister, this is the
23:09:51spirit farmer I mentioned to you, the
23:09:53one who can cultivate top grade
23:09:55medicinal herbs. Upon hearing this,
23:09:57Tanti Yuanu glanced at him and then
23:09:59asked, "Being able to cultivate top
23:10:01grade spiritual plants shows that you
23:10:03have remarkable talent in planting.
23:10:05Whose team are you on now?" Any spirit
23:10:07farmer who cultivates top quality
23:10:09spiritual plants will be recruited by
23:10:11the core disciples. Therefore, it is
23:10:13impossible for the person in front of
23:10:14you to be without a team. Su Chonqing
23:10:17quickly replied, "I'm currently in
23:10:19senior brother Leing<unk>s team." Tanti
23:10:21Yuyu suddenly realized, "It's that Yu
23:10:24Pavilion, the disciple of Master Emo
23:10:26Xinguan, the talisman master, the genius
23:10:29Lee Lingbi with three spiritual roots
23:10:31complimenting each other." "Not bad,"
23:10:33Such Chanching affirmed. Tantai Yuyu
23:10:36asked thoughtfully. Now that you've
23:10:37joined Leing<unk>s team, how do you
23:10:39still have the energy to provide
23:10:41medicinal herbs for my sister? Su
23:10:43Chongqing smiled slightly. I have two
23:10:45acres of second grade spirit fields. One
23:10:48acre is used to provide spirit rice for
23:10:50senior brother Lingi and the other acre
23:10:52is used to grow medicinal herbs. Lingmi
23:10:55upon hearing this, Tanti Yuyu asked
23:10:57again as if to confirm top grade spirit
23:11:00rice. At this moment, even you Kaiing on
23:11:03the other side cast a curious glance at
23:11:05them. Su Chongqing said seriously. Yes,
23:11:08second grade spirit fields produce top
23:11:10grade spirit rice. Upon hearing this,
23:11:12Tanti Yuan Yu and Yuk Kaiing exchanged a
23:11:15glance, both noticing the surprise in
23:11:17each other's eyes. It seems they
23:11:19underestimated this foundation
23:11:20establishment stage. Ling no, no wonder
23:11:23he was able to join the team of core
23:11:24disciple Lee Lingai. He really has some
23:11:26skills. The two acres of spiritual
23:11:29fields not only produced top quality
23:11:31spiritual rice on one acre but also top
23:11:33quality medicinal herbs on the other. At
23:11:35this moment, even Tanti Yuanu, a golden
23:11:38core cultivator, was somewhat tempted.
23:11:40She naturally looked down on ordinary
23:11:43spirit farmers as they were everywhere
23:11:45in the spirit fields. However, it is
23:11:47very rare to find a spirit farmer who
23:11:49can cultivate any kind of spirit plant
23:11:51into a top quality spirit farmer. If Su
23:11:54Chongqing hadn't joined any of the core
23:11:56disciples teams, she would definitely
23:11:58have tried to recruit him and even
23:12:00poaching him wouldn't have been out of
23:12:01the question. But Leingai is different.
23:12:03He is not only a core disciple but also
23:12:06a genius with three spiritual roots
23:12:08complimenting each other. Everyone is
23:12:10looking forward to his breakthrough to
23:12:12the Earth golden core. If successful,
23:12:14the three spiritual roots may awaken
23:12:17three kinds of golden core divine
23:12:18abilities, at which point their strength
23:12:20and potential will be terrifying. At the
23:12:23moment, this person was riding high, and
23:12:25Tanti Yuanu didn't want to provoke him,
23:12:27so she chuckled and said, "Don't just
23:12:29stand there. Sit down and have a cup of
23:12:31herbal tea." "Huh?" Su Chongqing
23:12:34hesitated slightly. Tantai Yuanu asked,
23:12:36puzzled, "What?" Such Chongqing waved
23:12:39his hand. I'm not thirsty. If they are
23:12:41just being polite and you take it
23:12:43seriously, you might offend a golden
23:12:44core cultivator. What's more, the other
23:12:47party is Sister Yukaiing, who can decide
23:12:49whether or not to cooperate in the
23:12:51future with just a word. If you offend a
23:12:53golden core cultivator and lose a highle
23:12:55alchemist over a cup of herbal tea, it
23:12:58would be a losing proposition. Looking
23:13:00at his cautious demeanor, Tanti Yuanu
23:13:02understood perfectly. After all,
23:13:04everyone progresses step by step fromQi
23:13:07refining to foundation establishment.
23:13:09Therefore, I didn't insist and continued
23:13:12chatting with my younger sister, Yukai.
23:13:14It mainly concerns breaking through to
23:13:16the Earth grade golden core stage as
23:13:18well as other cultivation related
23:13:20topics. Su Chongqing stood obediently to
23:13:22the side when he suddenly heard some
23:13:24news. It seems that Tanti Yuanu is
23:13:27preparing to act as a matchmaker for
23:13:28Yukai, introducing her to her master.
23:13:31Since he is the master of a golden core
23:13:33cultivator, he must at least be a nent
23:13:35sole true monarch. Actually, Su Chan was
23:13:38very puzzled. Logically speaking, given
23:13:41Yuda's exceptional talent and alchemy
23:13:43and her rapid cultivation, it's truly
23:13:45unbelievable that she hasn't become a
23:13:47core disciple. How exactly does one
23:13:50become a core disciple? What exactly are
23:13:52standards? Seeing that the conversation
23:13:54had gone on long enough, Tanti Yuanu
23:13:56waved her hand and disappeared from the
23:13:58spot, leaving only her soft, sweet voice
23:14:01echoing in the air. All right, that's
23:14:03enough for today. The pill tasting
23:14:05gathering is about to begin, so I won't
23:14:07delay your business any longer. Su
23:14:09Chanqing subconsciously looked outside,
23:14:12and sure enough, Taiu appeared in the
23:14:15seven-story crystal tower that had been
23:14:16empty. Seemingly noticing their gaze,
23:14:19she nodded slightly at him. Then, the
23:14:21seven-story crystal tower transformed
23:14:23into a streak of light and disappeared
23:14:25into the distance at an extremely fast
23:14:27speed. Yukai put down her iced tea,
23:14:30stood up, and said softly, "Let's go."
23:14:33"Okay." Su Chanqing stepped aside to
23:14:35make way for him to go downstairs. Only
23:14:37after the other person started walking
23:14:39down did I follow behind. Yukaiing. Is
23:14:42this the famous and beautiful alchemist
23:14:44Yukai? Who's that ordinary looking guy
23:14:46next to her? As a renowned and beautiful
23:14:49alchemist in the alchemy pavilion.
23:14:50Yukaiing attracts attention wherever she
23:14:53goes. Regardless of whether they are
23:14:55from the alchemy pavilion or not, they
23:14:57will greet each other proactively. But
23:14:59Yukai ignored them all. Not even
23:15:01glancing at them. They led Su Chongqing
23:15:04from the street to the vicinity of Dant.
23:15:06There are more people here. The place
23:15:08was bustling with people and very
23:15:09lively. The air was filled with the
23:15:11aroma of various medicinal herbs and
23:15:13pills. Some smell nice. Some of them
23:15:16smell bad, even pungent. Yukaiing
23:15:19explained, "The pill appreciation
23:15:20conference is divided into an outer area
23:15:23and an inner area. The outer perimeter
23:15:25is the area at the entrance of the Dan
23:15:27Tower. In terms of personnel, they are
23:15:29either other spiritual roots who come
23:15:31here to buy pills or they are
23:15:32apprentices with fire spirit roots who
23:15:34brew their own medicinal liquids and try
23:15:36their hand at alchemy. Of course, there
23:15:39are also some novice alchemists who want
23:15:40to make quick money. However, compared
23:15:42to the interior, the exterior is several
23:15:45levels inferior. Anyone who can enter
23:15:47the pill tower and participate in the
23:15:49internal pill tasting meeting must be at
23:15:51least a junior alchemist who has refined
23:15:53foundation establishment pills or a
23:15:55cultivator with other spiritual roots
23:15:57who is quite famous. If Su Chongqing
23:15:59comes alone, he can only stay on the
23:16:01periphery. However, with Usaing<unk>s
23:16:04guarantee, I have been granted the
23:16:06qualification to participate in the
23:16:07internal alchemy tasting event.
23:16:09Squeezing through the crowd, the two
23:16:11arrived at the entrance of the Dan
23:16:13Tower. The number of guards here has
23:16:15doubled compared to usual. Each of them
23:16:17had exceptionally sharp eyes, appearing
23:16:19very alert. The guard captain recognized
23:16:21Yukaiing at a glance and said very
23:16:24respectfully, "You are a senior
23:16:25alchemist staying at the pill tower, so
23:16:27there is no need to register." Yu Kaiing
23:16:30pointed to Su Chongqing, who was
23:16:31following behind her, "This is my
23:16:33partner. We will be attending the
23:16:35internal pill tasting meeting together."
23:16:37The guard captain said in a fawning
23:16:39tone, "Since he's your partner, of
23:16:41course, there's no problem. Please come
23:16:43in. Chapter 1 167. Genius Fong Xiaozi.
23:16:46Su Chonqing steals her skills. Chapter 1
23:16:4967. Genius Fong Xiaozi. Su Chonqing
23:16:52secretly learns from him. Su Chonqing
23:16:54followed Yukaiing and successfully
23:16:56entered the Dan Tower. The first floor
23:16:59remained the same, surrounded by all
23:17:01sorts of elixirs. However, because of
23:17:03the upcoming pill tasting event, the
23:17:05number of attendees appears to be larger
23:17:07than in previous visits. Inferior
23:17:09elixirs are not even qualified to be
23:17:11displayed here. At the very least, it
23:17:13should be high rank or even earth rank.
23:17:16Several highle alchemists who were not
23:17:18usually seen have now appeared. All of
23:17:20them will showcase their current
23:17:22masterpieces at the internal tasting
23:17:24event. What is a high-quality foundation
23:17:26building pill? Highquality body
23:17:28tempering pill. Highquality mysterious
23:17:30chi gathering pill. Even the worst
23:17:32products made by highle alchemists are
23:17:34of high quality. Su Chongqing was
23:17:37dazzled by the sheer number of pills he
23:17:38had ever seen before. At this moment,
23:17:41Yukai found a good spot and then took
23:17:43out a highquality waterfire dragon tiger
23:17:45pill that she had refined earlier and
23:17:48placed it there. After all, she was a
23:17:50highle alchemist and a renowned beauty
23:17:52at that. Therefore, it quickly attracted
23:17:54the attention of many people who looked
23:17:56at it with curiosity. Premium grade
23:17:59water fire dragon tiger pill. The
23:18:01interplay of water and fire creates a
23:18:03wonderful balance. To have such a level
23:18:05of skill at such a young age is truly
23:18:08impressive. Whether one understands
23:18:09alchemy or not, everyone who has seen it
23:18:12gives it a thumbs up. The fact that so
23:18:14many people recognize her demonstrates
23:18:16just how excellent you alchemy skills
23:18:18are. Su Chonqing listened for a while
23:18:20and was surprised to find that this
23:18:22internal pill tasting meeting actually
23:18:24had a scoring list. The pills are scored
23:18:26from 1 to 10 based on their size, shape,
23:18:28quality, and rarity. The scoring group
23:18:31is divided into two types. One type is
23:18:33called layman rating. One type is called
23:18:35expert scoring. Scores given by lay
23:18:38people are not recognized by the alchemy
23:18:40pavilion. Participation is the only
23:18:42important factor. What alchemists truly
23:18:45care about or value is the evaluation by
23:18:47their own people. The higher the score,
23:18:49the richer the reward. Yuka participated
23:18:52in this internal pill tasting meeting
23:18:54not only to showcase her newly refined
23:18:56waterfire dragon tiger pill but also for
23:18:59other reasons. It is said that once you
23:19:01enter the top 10, you will be noticed by
23:19:03top alchemists or even the alchemy
23:19:05masters of the alchemy pavilion and may
23:19:07be accepted as a core disciple.
23:19:09Regardless of the outcome, she wanted to
23:19:11give it a try. After all, success isn't
23:19:14guaranteed for my sister either. Seeing
23:19:16Su Chongqing curiously looking around,
23:19:18you Kaiing said, "You can walk around
23:19:20and see what other people are refining.
23:19:22There's no need for you to stand next to
23:19:24me." "Okay." Su Chongqing had been
23:19:27waiting for these words and immediately
23:19:29walked to the other side. In fact, he
23:19:31had long been very interested in a
23:19:33certain elixir. What jingdan? This is a
23:19:36pill that is only taken during the
23:19:37foundation establishment stage. If it
23:19:40were a chi refining stage or golden core
23:19:42stage cultivator, the effect would be
23:19:44worse. Throughout the entire immortal
23:19:46sect, once a formal disciple reaches the
23:19:48foundation establishment stage, they
23:19:50receive a monthly stipen for cultivation
23:19:53resources. One mid-grade spirit stone
23:19:55and one bottle of foundation spirit
23:19:57pill. The one that Su Chongqing had his
23:19:59eye on was even a top gradede foundation
23:20:02spirit pill. One can only imagine the
23:20:04skill of someone who can refine top
23:20:06grade elixirs. Therefore, it wasn't just
23:20:08Su Chongqing who was curious. Everyone
23:20:10around him was equally curious. This top
23:20:13grade foundation pill is the size of a
23:20:16longan and has fine spiral patterns on
23:20:18its surface. It has a refreshing herbal
23:20:20scent that invigorates the senses. After
23:20:22examining the top grade foundation
23:20:24spirit pill, Su Chongqing looked at the
23:20:26alchemist. It was a man, not very old,
23:20:29even quite immature. His eyes held both
23:20:32curiosity about those around him and
23:20:34excitement from attending his first
23:20:35internal alchemy tasting event. No
23:20:38matter how you look at it, he seems like
23:20:40a young man who has just joined the
23:20:41alchemy pavilion. Although alchemy does
23:20:44not require a high level of spiritual
23:20:45attainment as long as the heat is
23:20:48controlled properly, anyone with a fire
23:20:50elemental route can attempt to refine
23:20:51pills. But without a certain amount of
23:20:54talent and comprehension, you can't even
23:20:56reach the level of good quality, let
23:20:58alone top quality. Su Chongqing observed
23:21:00this and thought to himself, "It seems
23:21:02that he is another genius alchemist,
23:21:04perhaps even more skilled than my senior
23:21:06sister, Yu," a novice alchemist standing
23:21:09nearby, confidently declared,
23:21:10"Absolutely top grade." Faced with the
23:21:13praise from those around her, Fong Xiaoy
23:21:15blushed, opened her mouth, but couldn't
23:21:17utter a complete sentence. I this.
23:21:20Seeing this, Su Chaning asked, "Fellow
23:21:23Daist, you are so young, yet you can
23:21:25refine top grade pills. May I ask what
23:21:27realm you are at? What level? Fong
23:21:29Xiaozi scratched his head and replied,
23:21:31"I've just established my foundation.
23:21:33Although I've refined a top grade
23:21:35foundation spirit pill, I'm still a
23:21:37low-level alchemist." This statement
23:21:39caused an uproar. It's just the
23:21:41beginning of the foundation building
23:21:42process. Another low-level alchemist.
23:21:45Logically speaking, putting them
23:21:46together doesn't seem out of place. But
23:21:49the person in front of me doesn't even
23:21:50look over 20. To possess such a level of
23:21:53skill and alchemy expertise at such a
23:21:55young age, one's future is destined to
23:21:57be extraordinary. It's as if everyone is
23:22:00witnessing a rising star. A sly glint
23:22:03flashed in Sue Chongqing<unk>s eyes, and
23:22:05he immediately said, "Fellow Dowist is
23:22:07too young, which will definitely arouse
23:22:09a lot of doubts. Why not refine a batch
23:22:11of foundation spirit pills in front of
23:22:13everyone? Even if they don't reach the
23:22:15top quality, as long as they succeed, it
23:22:17will shut some people up." Yes. Yes.
23:22:20Many people echoed, "Internal alchemy
23:22:22tasting sessions allow for alchemy to be
23:22:25performed in person. Firstly, it can
23:22:27dispel doubts. Secondly, it can showcase
23:22:29the alchemist's abilities." Provoked by
23:22:32everyone's words, Fong Shia got carried
23:22:34away and immediately said, "Fine, I'll
23:22:37refine a batch of foundation spirit
23:22:39pills right in front of everyone." Upon
23:22:41hearing this, Su Chongqing and the
23:22:43others all revealed meaningful smiles.
23:22:45They are the ones being praised. They
23:22:47are the ones who are questioning it.
23:22:49They're the ones who want to see
23:22:50alchemy. The subterranean fire is
23:22:52readily available. The materials are
23:22:54readily available. The alchemy furnace
23:22:56was also readily available. Therefore,
23:22:59Fong Xiaozi quickly began refining the
23:23:01foundation pill. Upon seeing this, Su
23:23:04Chongqing and the others immediately
23:23:06crowded around, their eyes fixed
23:23:08intently on the scene, determined not to
23:23:10miss a single subtle movement,
23:23:12attempting to memorize every detail. As
23:23:14they watched, many people showed
23:23:16expressions of sudden realization. So
23:23:19this is when you add early spring grass.
23:23:21After a quarter of an hour, I actually
23:23:23had to suppress my anger. Impressive.
23:23:26This alchemy experience has been truly
23:23:28enlightening and broadened my horizons.
23:23:30Such Chongqing was the most diligent of
23:23:32all those who secretly learned the
23:23:34techniques. So far, he only has one
23:23:37prescription for Lauang pill. Although
23:23:39he could refine top grade pills, his
23:23:41alchemy skills were not particularly
23:23:43impressive. Therefore, after witnessing
23:23:45Fong Xiaozi refine the Foundation Spirit
23:23:48Pill, many things that were previously
23:23:50incomprehensible were only vaguely
23:23:52understood became clear to him. By the
23:23:54time Fong Xiaoi finished refining, Such
23:23:56Chaning had already learned most of her
23:23:58alchemy techniques for the Foundation
23:24:00Spirit Pill. As long as he went back and
23:24:02tried a few more times, he would
23:24:04definitely be able to refine pills of
23:24:06the same quality. When X giling first
23:24:08starts out, it is in a liquid state and
23:24:10needs to go through several steps such
23:24:12as solidification and weighing before it
23:24:14becomes the round shape that everyone
23:24:16sees or eats everyday. When Fong Shia
23:24:19finished refining the foundation pill
23:24:21and was overjoyed, she was about to
23:24:23share it when she discovered that all
23:24:25the people who had been watching had
23:24:26left. Chapter 168 Top Alchemist, Earth
23:24:29Soul Crystal Pill. Chapter 168 Top
23:24:32Alchemist. Earth soul crystal pill
23:24:34leaves Fong Xiaozi Su Chongqing
23:24:37continues to wander around. Soon he
23:24:39arrived at a stall selling pills. People
23:24:41around me said that the stall owner was
23:24:43a senior alchemist. The highle pill that
23:24:46was refined was called the mysterious
23:24:47origin gatheringqi pill. Its function is
23:24:50to greatly increase the speed of
23:24:52cultivation. However, there is one
23:24:54drawback. You can only consume one per
23:24:56month. Taking too much will not only
23:24:58fail to enhance your strength, but will
23:25:01also easily lead to the accumulation of
23:25:03spiritual energy within your body, which
23:25:05will only cause harm. Different
23:25:06qualities will produce different
23:25:08effects. For example, it's of poor
23:25:10quality and can only last for 3 days.
23:25:13High-quality products can last up to 10
23:25:14days. As for top quality items, they
23:25:17generally take about 20 days. All of
23:25:19these are highquality mysterious chi
23:25:21gathering pills. Although it was winter
23:25:23and Su Chongqing couldn't absorb much
23:25:25with spiritual energy, after thinking it
23:25:28over, he still took out 10 mid-grade
23:25:30spirit stones to buy one. Regardless of
23:25:32whether it works now, just by it first.
23:25:34Seeing that it was almost time, he
23:25:36turned around and went to find Yuka. As
23:25:39a result, there were too many onlookers
23:25:41and it took a long time before they
23:25:42could see each other. At this time, only
23:25:45an hour had passed since the start of
23:25:46the internal pill tasting competition.
23:25:48So instead of ending more and more
23:25:50people were entering the pill tower.
23:25:52There are even quite a few famous
23:25:54cultivators among them. For example, the
23:25:56R family, the number one cultivation
23:25:58family in Link. R Yan whom they had met
23:26:01once before brought his senior brother
23:26:03Liing May with him this time. The two of
23:26:05them chatted and laughed as they
23:26:07strolled around buying a lot of
23:26:08expensive pill formulas. Some of them
23:26:11are even worth more than a 100 mgrade
23:26:13spirit stones. It was clear that Rome
23:26:15Yin didn't care about the price at all.
23:26:17If Wan wanted something, he would take
23:26:19out handfuls of mid-grade spirit stones
23:26:21from his storage items without
23:26:23hesitation. Although Su Chongqing hadn't
23:26:25counted them carefully, he estimated in
23:26:27his mind that he had already spent over
23:26:29a,000 coins. That's outrageously
23:26:32extravagant. This waterfire dragon tiger
23:26:34pill is very well-made. I feel like it
23:26:37could reach 9 out of 10. This is one of
23:26:39the few female alchemists in our pill
23:26:41tower with extremely high talent and
23:26:43alchemy. A large crowd had gathered
23:26:46around Yuka. Although she doesn't like
23:26:48being surrounded by people, especially
23:26:50strangers. But in order to gain more
23:26:52points and successfully enter the top
23:26:5410, they had no choice but to endure it.
23:26:56She currently has many reviews and
23:26:58ratings, and her ranking is also very
23:27:00high. Barring any unforeseen
23:27:02circumstances, they will definitely be
23:27:04among the top 10 in this internal pill
23:27:07tasting competition. Seeing this, Su
23:27:09Chongqing couldn't help but say, "Senior
23:27:12sister, you if you need to rest, I can
23:27:14help you for a while." Uh, Yukai was
23:27:16taken aback and looked at him with
23:27:18considerable surprise. Su Chongqing
23:27:20continued to volunteer. Although I don't
23:27:22have a talent for alchemy, I'm fine when
23:27:25it comes to communication. Utaqing<unk>s
23:27:27lips twitched into a faint smile, and
23:27:29she said, "Thank you for your kindness,
23:27:31but this is my choice, and I should bear
23:27:34the consequences myself." Upon hearing
23:27:36this, Su Chongqing did not insist and
23:27:38silently stood guard by his side. As
23:27:41time ticked by, the internal alchemy
23:27:43tasting event was in full swing. The Dan
23:27:45Tower, which is usually not crowded, was
23:27:47unusually lively this time. The air was
23:27:50filled with all sorts of smells. Its
23:27:52aroma is the most prominent and
23:27:54strongest. Just then, a strange
23:27:56fragrance wafted out, attracting
23:27:58everyone's attention. The taste is like
23:28:00the cold dew that occasionally drips in
23:28:02a pine forest after a snowfall,
23:28:04refreshing and invigorating, clearing
23:28:06the mind. Everyone looked around
23:28:08curiously, eventually focusing their
23:28:10attention on the staircase leading down
23:28:13from the tower. As the sound of
23:28:14footsteps echoed, a middle-aged man
23:28:17dressed in a dark robe with crimson
23:28:18patterns came into view. He had long,
23:28:21dark blue hair, which was tied up high
23:28:23with a red jade crown. In his right
23:28:25hand, a strangely shaped pill floated.
23:28:28At first glance, it looks like a
23:28:29prismatic crystal and has a wonderfully
23:28:32fragrant aroma. The flowing spiritual
23:28:34energy formed a faint vortex on the
23:28:36surface of the pill. Yukai exclaimed in
23:28:39surprise, "This is Wong Yong Yin, one of
23:28:42the three top alchemists of the pill
23:28:43tower." Wong Yong, a top tier alchemist.
23:28:46It is said that he is refining a
23:28:48high-grade elixir called the Earth Soul
23:28:50Crystal Pill. Now, it seems to be the
23:28:52one on the right. He is one of only
23:28:54three top tier alchemists in the entire
23:28:56pill tower and even in the entire
23:28:58daunting immortal sect. Everyone was
23:29:00thrilled to be able to participate in
23:29:02the internal pill tasting event.
23:29:04Apprentices with fire elemental roots
23:29:06can refine common low-level pills and
23:29:08elixir available on the market. A novice
23:29:11alchemist can refine all low-level pills
23:29:13available on the market and a few highle
23:29:15pills. Advanced alchemists are powerful.
23:29:18They can refine most high-grade pills
23:29:20and a few low-grade pills. Top tier
23:29:22alchemists can refine all high-grade
23:29:24pills and even most low-grade pills. As
23:29:26for alchemy masters, the starting point
23:29:28is heavenrade pills. Of course, it's
23:29:31important to note that this refers to
23:29:32pills available on the market. If it has
23:29:35never appeared before and there is no
23:29:36recipe for it, then it definitely cannot
23:29:39be refined. In fact, the novice
23:29:41alchemist is already considered a
23:29:43watershed moment in this profession.
23:29:45Some people limited by factors such as
23:29:47talent, comprehension, and luck may be
23:29:50stuck for 10 or 20 years before they can
23:29:52improve. Some people even remain novice
23:29:54alchemists their entire lives. The pills
23:29:56refined by both low-level and highle
23:29:58alchemists are exclusively supplied to
23:30:00the entire immortal sect. As for top
23:30:03tier alchemists, aside from the one who
23:30:05just died, there are now three
23:30:07remaining, including the one before us,
23:30:09Wong Yonging. His fame stemmed from his
23:30:12constant attempts to refine all sorts of
23:30:14strange and unusual elixirs, especially
23:30:17those kinds of elixirs that haven't
23:30:18appeared for a hundred, a few hundred,
23:30:20or even a thousand years. For this
23:30:22reason, although Wong Yong did not
23:30:24refine pills many times, he was still
23:30:27highly regarded by the pill tower, the
23:30:29alchemy pavilion, and the upper echelons
23:30:31of the immortal sect. This person is
23:30:33most famous for refining a low-grade
23:30:35elixir that only appeared 800 years ago
23:30:38called the awakening of insects pill.
23:30:40This elixir helped the golden core
23:30:42cultivator from the earth's veins whose
23:30:44lifespan was nearing its end to survive
23:30:46by utilizing its special effects and
23:30:49even break through to the naent soul
23:30:51stage. From then on, Wong Yongin became
23:30:54famous throughout the daunting immortal
23:30:56sect. And many people came to him
23:30:57begging for elixirs. The current earth
23:31:00soul crystal pill was refined for
23:31:02someone else. Although it also reaches
23:31:04the earth rank, it is not as amazing as
23:31:06the awakening of insects pill, but it
23:31:09also has special effects. It is mainly
23:31:11used in conjunction with the earth rank
23:31:13enoriented cultivation technique shining
23:31:15dish to enhance the level of the
23:31:17cultivation technique. It is said that
23:31:19if someone with a water elemental root
23:31:21takes this pill, they can even transform
23:31:24into someone with an ice elemental root.
23:31:26Such Chongqing clicked his tongue in
23:31:28amazement. This time I've really
23:31:29broadened my horizons. Not only did I
23:31:32see a large number of rare pills, but I
23:31:34also met a top alchemist. Oh, Wong Yong
23:31:37was slightly taken aback when he saw so
23:31:39many people, then suddenly realized, "Is
23:31:42it the annual internal pill tasting
23:31:43meeting again? This time I spent a long
23:31:46time refining pills, staying on the 17th
23:31:49underground floor every day. I had no
23:31:51idea how much time had passed, and I
23:31:53never expected to find myself at an
23:31:55internal pill tasting gathering. Seeing
23:31:57so many people made me feel a little
23:31:58dazed. At this moment, an internal
23:32:01alchemy tasting group leader stepped
23:32:02forward and asked, "Master Wong, would
23:32:05you like to?" Wong Yong snapped out of
23:32:07his days and shook his head, saying,
23:32:09"I'm not participating. I always come in
23:32:12first place. It's really boring."
23:32:14Chapter 169, Yukai, Part 4, Nighttime
23:32:17Firecontrolling Crow. Chapter 169 Yuk
23:32:20Kaiing part 4. The words of the knight
23:32:23controlling firecrow king Yongin can
23:32:25only be described as pretentious.
23:32:27However, as one of the three top
23:32:29alchemists in the entire Daunting
23:32:31immortal sect, "He truly has the ability
23:32:33and qualifications." Upon hearing that
23:32:36this person would not be participating,
23:32:38many people showed expressions of
23:32:39disappointment, especially the senior
23:32:41alchemists at this internal alchemy
23:32:43tasting event, including Yuka, whose
23:32:45eyes all dimmed. If one were to be
23:32:47valued by a top tier alchemist like Wong
23:32:49Yongin and become his core disciple, one
23:32:52would not only learn more profound
23:32:53alchemy skills, but also be exempt from
23:32:56the monthly alchemy tasks assigned by
23:32:57the immortal sect. Even cultivation
23:33:00resources have increased at least
23:33:0110fold. Wong Yang didn't even glance at
23:33:04the surrounding pills and walked
23:33:06straight towards the exit of the pill
23:33:07tower. You can continue. Although
23:33:10everyone was disappointed that this big
23:33:11shot did not participate in the internal
23:33:13pill tasting meeting. Conversely, when
23:33:16he wasn't there, everyone felt less
23:33:18tense and reserved. Before long, the
23:33:20first floor of the Dan Tower became
23:33:22lively again. As more and more people
23:33:24participate, the number of elixirs on
23:33:26display is also increasing. As we
23:33:28gradually approach the climax, the
23:33:30selection of the top 10 takes place.
23:33:32Whether they were novice or advanced
23:33:34alchemists, they all brought out their
23:33:36best pills. However, it is clear that
23:33:38only rare and exotic highle pills or
23:33:41earth level pills are more likely to
23:33:43attract more people and thus obtain
23:33:45higher ratings. With her outstanding
23:33:47appearance and exceptional alchemy
23:33:49talent, Yukai easily secured a place in
23:33:51the top 10 with her waterfire dragon
23:33:54tiger pill. However, they did not win
23:33:56first place. Who came in first place?
23:33:59Fong Xiaozi? No. Although he did display
23:34:01a top grade foundation pill this time.
23:34:04Moreover, he successfully established
23:34:06his foundation at a young age, and his
23:34:08talent, potential, and level of
23:34:10attainment have been recognized by
23:34:11everyone, but were not qualified yet to
23:34:13take first place. The winner of this
23:34:15internal alchemy competition is a senior
23:34:17alchemist male named Wong Gang. He has
23:34:20been a member of the alchemy pavilion of
23:34:22the Donging immortal sect for 10 years.
23:34:25In the past few years, he kept a low
23:34:27profile and had almost no fame. However,
23:34:29the pills displayed this time surprised
23:34:31many experts. The elixir is called the
23:34:34nine orififices in devouring pill. The
23:34:36earthrade elixir formula is of inferior
23:34:39quality. Logically speaking, there are
23:34:41many more alchemists than him and their
23:34:43pills are of even higher quality. But
23:34:45why did such a low-grade Earth rank pill
23:34:47actually win first place this time? It's
23:34:49very simple. Because it's a fragment of
23:34:51a prescription from a thousand years
23:34:53ago, it can outperform many of its
23:34:55fellow practitioners. Restoring a
23:34:57fragmented prescription from a thousand
23:34:59years ago is far more difficult than
23:35:01refining a common earthgrade pill. The
23:35:03prize for first place is this time the
23:35:05top grade spiritual artifact, the
23:35:07mysterious Azure flame furnace. It
23:35:10contains a wisp of Azure Phoenix life
23:35:12flame which can eliminate impurities and
23:35:14optimize the elixir. The effect is that
23:35:16the medicinal properties are
23:35:18spontaneously harmonized during alchemy,
23:35:20increasing the success rate of pill
23:35:22formation by 20%. Yukaiing ranked fourth
23:35:25and her reward was a highquality
23:35:27spiritual artifact. The spiritnourishing
23:35:29futon woven from ancient soulnourishing
23:35:32wood. It allows for sitting or lying
23:35:35down for spiritual practice. The effect
23:35:37is that it allows one to enter a state
23:35:39of no thought during alchemy, thus
23:35:42avoiding external interference. Such
23:35:44Chongqing stood to the side,
23:35:46dumbfounded, his mouth agape. I knew
23:35:48alchemy could make money, but I never
23:35:50imagined it could be this lucrative. The
23:35:52rewards for first to 10th place are all
23:35:54magical artifacts except for the first
23:35:57place which is a toprade spiritual
23:35:59artifact. The remaining two to 10 are
23:36:01all highquality spiritual artifacts
23:36:04outside. Even a single item would cost
23:36:06at least a thousand mid-grade spirit
23:36:08stones. Yukaiing was fairly satisfied
23:36:10with the result. Although she hadn't
23:36:12attracted the attention of top
23:36:13alchemists, the reward was quite good.
23:36:16Therefore, she said, "With this, the
23:36:18success rate of the Inyong intertwining
23:36:20pill will be improved." Su Chongqing
23:36:23immediately cupped his hands in
23:36:25greeting. It seems I should congratulate
23:36:27senior sister Yu on breaking through to
23:36:29the golden core stage in advance.
23:36:31Yukaiing blinked and said half-
23:36:33jokingly, "Ever since I met you, I've
23:36:35had great luck. It seems you're my lucky
23:36:37star." Such Choning scratched his head
23:36:40and chuckled foolishly, "He." Yu Kaiing
23:36:42then asked, "How are the cultivation of
23:36:44the golden crow vine and bright moon
23:36:46grass going?" Su Chongqing quickly
23:36:48replied, "They're all doing well and
23:36:50have grown up strong." Yuka pondered,
23:36:52"Now all that's missing is the yongt
23:36:54type medicinal herb, red yong jinseng."
23:36:57The ingype medicinal herb, Shienin
23:36:59Lingi, "And I've already got my hands on
23:37:01the auxiliary herb, Taii flower." Su
23:37:03Chongqing thought for a moment. "How
23:37:05about I ask around in the spirit field
23:37:07for you?" You Kaiing nodded slightly.
23:37:10Okay, ask around for me. If any
23:37:12spiritual farmers grow these medicinal
23:37:14herbs, I'm willing to buy them at a
23:37:16price higher than the market price.
23:37:18Okay. Su Chongqing nodded vigorously.
23:37:20After that, the two parted ways.
23:37:23Yukaiing lives in the earth fire zone,
23:37:25so she doesn't need to go out. After
23:37:27bidding farewell to the other party, Su
23:37:29Chongqing rode away swiftly on the large
23:37:31leaf grass. By this time, the sun had
23:37:34already set. The night was as dark as
23:37:36ink, and the Milky Way hung upside down.
23:37:39The withered trees were coated with a
23:37:41layer of silver frost. The flowing river
23:37:43water shimmerred with a cold light.
23:37:45Winter nights are exceptionally cold and
23:37:47quiet. When Su Chongqing returned home,
23:37:50Wong Wong and the Guinea Fowl were
23:37:52already huddled in their respective
23:37:53nests. Only that honest man fortress
23:37:56continues to patrol around the spirit
23:37:58field, circle after circle. The sounds
23:38:00of banging broke the silence. As soon as
23:38:03its owner landed, Wong Wong immediately
23:38:05crawled out of its warm doghouse,
23:38:07wagging its tail and rubbing against its
23:38:09owner's body. Su Chongqing squatted
23:38:12down, holding the dog's head, which was
23:38:14full of fawning expressions in his
23:38:16hands, and rubbed it back and forth
23:38:18angrily, thoroughly enjoying himself. At
23:38:21this point, having completed their
23:38:23inspection of the fortress, they
23:38:24returned to the wooden hut. Su Chongqing
23:38:27stood up and said, "You don't need to
23:38:29patrol tonight, although this thing
23:38:31doesn't need to rest." and can patrol 24
23:38:33hours a day. The problem is that it
23:38:35makes a bang bang bang sound when it
23:38:37moves. It's fine during the day, but it
23:38:39gets too noisy at night. Yes, master.
23:38:42The fortress replied immediately. Next,
23:38:44Su Chonqing casually tossed the
23:38:46companion green lotus into the second
23:38:48grade spirit field on the right. Let it
23:38:50release the Azure lotus domain to help
23:38:53the moon grass within grow. He went into
23:38:55the cabin and started making Derno. It
23:38:57should be called a midnight snack now.
23:38:59It wasn't particularly lavish. There was
23:39:01a plate of mutated spirit rice
23:39:03stir-fried with eggs laid by pearl
23:39:05chickens and then a bottle of premium
23:39:07yellow rice wine was brought from the
23:39:09basement. While eating fried rice with
23:39:11eggs, they were drinking yellow rice
23:39:13wine. Another simple meal. After eating
23:39:15and drinking to their hearts content,
23:39:17they washed the dishes and immediately
23:39:19lay down on the wooden bed. Then, with a
23:39:22thought, he took out the spirit beast
23:39:23ring stored in the emerald gourd. As my
23:39:26spiritual sense probed into it, images
23:39:28from inside appeared in my mind. The
23:39:30five captured fire crows looked listless
23:39:32and had no energy at all. In their
23:39:35bloodshot eyes, only exhaustion, fear,
23:39:38confusion, and pain remained. Such
23:39:40Chonqing observed this and thought to
23:39:42himself, "According to Lui, these fire
23:39:45crows need to be starved for a few days
23:39:47before they will submit and become
23:39:48obediently tamed." However, this method
23:39:51is based on the absence of a fire spirit
23:39:53route and cultivation techniques. Only
23:39:56through such rudimentary means can the
23:39:58fire crow be tamed. But I'm different.
23:40:00I've already maxed out the fire crowi
23:40:02cultivation technique, so I don't need
23:40:04to wait that long at all. I can even
23:40:06start right now. Immediately, Su Choning
23:40:08summoned one of the lying fire crows.
23:40:11Chapter 170, the stages of the fire
23:40:13crow, the thousand-year-old crow
23:40:15venerable. Chapter 170, the stage of
23:40:17fire raven. After the blood red fire
23:40:19raven surrounding the thousand-year
23:40:21raven venerable was summoned, he did not
23:40:23react immediately. Having gone without
23:40:25food for several hours and imprisoned in
23:40:27a cramped space, and having failed to
23:40:30escape after multiple attempts, hunger,
23:40:32fear, and other factors combined, he had
23:40:35begun to give up. After it appeared in
23:40:37Su Chongqing<unk>s hand from the inner
23:40:39space of the spirit beast circle, the
23:40:41man and the fire crow stared at each
23:40:43other for at least 10 seconds. Only then
23:40:45did the fire crow realize what was
23:40:47happening. Its pupils contracted and it
23:40:49began to flap its wings frantically,
23:40:51emitting a piercing, unpleasant cawing
23:40:54sound. However, it turned out that
23:40:56although they had seemingly escaped the
23:40:57cramped space, they were actually still
23:41:00trapped in the five fingers mountain of
23:41:02humanity and had no way to escape.
23:41:04Exhausted, hungry, and thirsty, he
23:41:07quickly gave up and even sighed, looking
23:41:10completely resigned to his fate. Su
23:41:12Chongqing chuckled and said, "So
23:41:14dramatic. Are you a performer?" He
23:41:16channeled the fire elemental power
23:41:18within his dantion, gradually injecting
23:41:21it into the fire crow's body through his
23:41:23left hand that was gripping it. As is
23:41:25well known, anything with fire energy
23:41:27can become food for fire crows. So,
23:41:29after absorbing this fire elemental
23:41:31power, their condition improved. But
23:41:33instead of struggling, he trembled and
23:41:35his eyes showed deep fear. Such Chanqing
23:41:38saw this and couldn't help but nod
23:41:40slightly. The adage, "Give a beating and
23:41:42then a sweet treat," seems to apply to
23:41:45any living being. Then, with a thought,
23:41:47a handful of top-grade spirit rice from
23:41:49a second grade spirit field appeared in
23:41:51his right hand, and he tried to put a
23:41:53grain of spirit rice into the fire
23:41:55crow's mouth. At first, this thing
23:41:57gritted its teeth and dared not open its
23:41:59mouth, fearing that it was poisonous and
23:42:01would die if it ate it. As a result,
23:42:04after sensing the rich spiritual energy
23:42:06contained within, I suddenly had the
23:42:08idea of eating one. And then I actually
23:42:11ate one. Then it couldn't stop eating
23:42:13grain after grain. And soon the handful
23:42:15of spirit rice was completely gone, even
23:42:18smacking its lips with lingering
23:42:20satisfaction. After finishing the spirit
23:42:22rice, the fire crow looked at Su
23:42:24Chongqing with less fear and even a hint
23:42:26of anticipation, as if waiting for the
23:42:29next favor. Seeing this, Su Chanching
23:42:31knew it was time and immediately
23:42:33activated the fire crow chi cultivation
23:42:36technique to quickly communicate with
23:42:38the fire crow he was holding in his left
23:42:40hand. The warm fire elemental energy
23:42:43coupled with the harmless behavior and
23:42:45the max level fire crow chi cultivation
23:42:47technique quickly broke through the fire
23:42:49crow's psychological defenses as a wisp
23:42:52of spiritual consciousness was drawn out
23:42:54such chonqing and it became one. The
23:42:56firecrows thoughts and ideas will be fed
23:42:59back into his mind. For example, right
23:43:01now, Lingi, tasty. I want more. Such
23:43:04Chanqing couldn't help but chuckle. He
23:43:06hadn't expected this fire crow to be
23:43:08such a glutton. However, he did not rush
23:43:11to feed them, but instead loosened his
23:43:13clenched left hand. Sure enough, after
23:43:15controlling the fire crow using the fire
23:43:18crow chi cultivation method, it no
23:43:20longer showed any fear or panic. Even
23:43:22though it knew that the hand had been
23:43:24released, it did not have any thought of
23:43:26escaping and even deliberately rubbed
23:43:28against the hand. At this point,
23:43:30relevant information appears. Common
23:43:32fire crow potential value six intimacy
23:43:36level psychic loyalty level based on
23:43:39self-interest. Because Su Chongqing has
23:43:41thoroughly mastered the fire crow
23:43:43cultivation method, he is very
23:43:45knowledgeable about the potential value,
23:43:47intimacy level, and loyalty level of the
23:43:49fire crows. First, the potential value
23:43:52indicates whether this fire raven can
23:43:53evolve into a fire raven leader or even
23:43:56a fire raven king. The minimum is one
23:43:58and the maximum is 10. The one in front
23:44:01of us has reached a level of six, which
23:44:03is already considered to be above
23:44:05average. Intimacy is divided into four
23:44:07stages. Recognizing the Lord behavior.
23:44:10Fire crows are reluctant to obey
23:44:12commands, but they are wild and will
23:44:14occasionally resist orders. Ability can
23:44:17understand simple instructions but may
23:44:19not follow commands during combat.
23:44:21Interaction. It may peck at its owner
23:44:23occasionally, but it will not cause any
23:44:25harm. Spiritual communication. Behavior.
23:44:28The fire crow trusts its owner and can
23:44:31understand more complex commands.
23:44:33Ability. Can share vision and can
23:44:35coordinate simple tactics during combat.
23:44:37Interaction. It will take the initiative
23:44:39to land on its owner and occasionally
23:44:41rub its head to show affection.
23:44:43Symbiosis. Behavior. The fire crow
23:44:46shares its life with its owner and when
23:44:48the owner is injured, the fire crow
23:44:50shares the damage ability. The fire crow
23:44:53can transform into a flame tattoo and
23:44:55attach itself to its owner. Interactive.
23:44:58Fire crows will depend on their owners
23:44:59like family members and may even get
23:45:01jealous and compete for their affection.
23:45:04Special ability. The master can use the
23:45:06fire crow's natal fire to refine pills
23:45:08or fight. Super bond behavior. The fire
23:45:11crow is no longer a spirit pet, but a
23:45:14partner that grows together with its
23:45:15owner ability. It can cultivate
23:45:18autonomously and even replenish its
23:45:20master's cultivation interaction. The
23:45:22relationship is more like that of
23:45:24brothers or dowist partners, and they
23:45:26can fight against calamities together.
23:45:28Special ability one, when its master
23:45:30improves his cultivation level, its
23:45:33potential value will also increase.
23:45:35Special ability two. There is a certain
23:45:37chance that the natal true fire will
23:45:39evolve into solar true fire. Loyalty is
23:45:41divided into five stages. Fear and
23:45:44submission, manifestation, obeying due
23:45:47to contracts or force, but harboring
23:45:49resentment and ready to retaliate at any
23:45:51time. Behavior one, during combat, they
23:45:54may not put in their full effort or even
23:45:56deliberately make mistakes. Behavior
23:45:59two, when the owner is seriously
23:46:01injured, the dog may take the
23:46:02opportunity to escape or attack the
23:46:04owner. Benefits. Behavior, temporary
23:46:07cooperation based on elixirs, spiritual
23:46:10materials, or cultivation resources.
23:46:12Disbandment, when there is no benefit.
23:46:15Behavior one, willing to bargain and ask
23:46:17for more. Behavior two, when
23:46:19encountering a strong enemy, they may
23:46:21observe or flee. Approval behavior
23:46:24recognizes the master's strength or
23:46:26character and is willing to follow
23:46:28sincerely. Behavior one will actively
23:46:31protect its master but may prioritize
23:46:33self-preservation in a situation where
23:46:35certain death is inevitable. Behavior
23:46:38two, they will obey their master's
23:46:40commands most of the time. Diehard fan
23:46:43behavior completely trusts its master
23:46:45and would rather perish than betray
23:46:47them. Behavior one, it will shield its
23:46:49owner from fatal attacks. behavior too.
23:46:52Even if the master falls into depravity,
23:46:54they will still remain loyal and
23:46:56devoted. Concentric manifestation,
23:46:59transcending the master servant
23:47:01relationship, becoming partners who
23:47:03share life and death. Behavior one, it
23:47:06can sacrifice itself to help its master
23:47:08break through to a higher realm or
23:47:10escape danger. Behavior two, if its
23:47:12master dies, the fire crow will either
23:47:14die a martyr's death or seek revenge in
23:47:17a frenzy. In fact, potential value,
23:47:19intimacy level, and loyalty level can
23:47:21all be applied to all spirit pets. This
23:47:24is the real reason why the cultivators
23:47:26in the spirit beast valley, though
23:47:28diverse and possessing all sorts of
23:47:30spiritual roots, are not to be
23:47:32underestimated. A spirit pet is like a
23:47:34second self and the two compliment each
23:47:36other. Fire crow, although it belongs to
23:47:39one of the lower level spirit pets.
23:47:41However, a thousand years ago, there was
23:47:43a naent soul cultivator who could
23:47:45control tens of thousands of fire crows
23:47:47to form the 10,000 crows burning the sky
23:47:50formation. He was respectfully called
23:47:52the crow venerable by many cultivators.
23:47:55At that time, it was so powerful that it
23:47:57could set the sky ablaze and boil the
23:47:59seas, and its influence was
23:48:01unparalleled. Such Chanqing pulled
23:48:03himself out of his thoughts and looked
23:48:04at the first fire crow he had tamed.
23:48:06Seeing that the creature was uneasy and
23:48:08looked like it wanted to move, but dared
23:48:10not, he couldn't help but smile. In the
23:48:13future, perhaps I will be able to
23:48:15control tens of thousands of fire crows,
23:48:17just like the crow venerable. With a
23:48:19thought, he issued the first command.
23:48:21The fire crow, which had been
23:48:23motionless, suddenly flapped its wings
23:48:25and flew towards the cold night outside
23:48:27the window. Chapter 171. Mastering the
23:48:30fire crow. A good helper for the future.
23:48:33Chapter 171. Mastering the fire crow. A
23:48:36good helper for the future. Meanwhile,
23:48:38Su Chongqing closed his eyes. At first
23:48:40glance, it looks like it's sleeping. In
23:48:42reality, he saw images of fire crows
23:48:45sharing a field of vision in his mind.
23:48:47There are two in total, one on the left
23:48:49and one on the right. At this moment,
23:48:51the entire night sky is laid out before
23:48:54you. Regardless of the cold moon or the
23:48:56stars in the sky, the shadows of the
23:48:58trees still sway gently. The river flows
23:49:01quietly, although I couldn't hear
23:49:03anything. I can't smell anything. But Su
23:49:05Chonqing could see everything clearly
23:49:07from flowers and birds to fish and
23:49:10insects. Fire crows will lock onto
23:49:12objects that generate heat immediately
23:49:14and then observe them carefully. From
23:49:16the current perspective, there is not
23:49:18much difference between night and day
23:49:19for fire crows. Then following its
23:49:22master's command, it flapped its wings
23:49:24and flew over the hundred meter high
23:49:26rocky mountain. At an extremely fast
23:49:28speed, like a blood red ghost under the
23:49:30moonlight, it flew towards a more
23:49:32distant place. Where to go? Bamboo
23:49:35covered leisurely fields. Previously, Su
23:49:38Chanqing had never been there because it
23:49:40was too far away. Now that the fire
23:49:41crows are helping us scout the way,
23:49:43let's go take a look. Of course, we
23:49:45should also test the shared field of
23:49:47view to see if there are any issues. As
23:49:49the flight distance increased, one
23:49:51problem after another arose. First of
23:49:53all, the fire crow will indeed obey its
23:49:56master's instructions and try to
23:49:57complete them. However, due to the
23:49:59closeness and loyalty involved, their
23:50:01attention is not focused. Sometimes,
23:50:04when they see other birds, the weaker
23:50:06ones will try to scare or chase them. If
23:50:08it encounters a bird that is larger or
23:50:10more powerful than itself, it will
23:50:12quickly run away. from Su
23:50:13Chongqing<unk>s spiritual field to Zhu
23:50:15Fushians spiritual field. It's a
23:50:17straight line distance. It won't take
23:50:19more than a few minutes to fly there.
23:50:21Unfortunately, the firecrow was not
23:50:23focused and kept doawling and fidgeting,
23:50:25causing it to arrive 10 minutes later
23:50:27than expected. That is to say, it took a
23:50:30full 10 minutes to arrive at Ju Fushian
23:50:32spiritual field. Fortunately, this lack
23:50:35of concentration and even
23:50:36procrastination will gradually change as
23:50:39Su Chongqing and Hoya's relationship
23:50:41improves. Although it took a little
23:50:43time, we finally got to see Zhu
23:50:44Fushian's spiritual field. How many
23:50:47acres? A full 15 acres. It covers a
23:50:50large area. Some grow spirit rice. Some
23:50:52grow medicinal herbs. Some cultivate
23:50:55rare and precious plants. Some places,
23:50:57whether due to recent harvest or some
23:50:59other reason, had no spiritual plants at
23:51:02all, appearing completely empty. Such
23:51:04Choning was shocked. Just how many years
23:51:06has this senior brother Zu stayed in the
23:51:08core area? If he is only at the
23:51:10foundation establishment stage, it would
23:51:12be difficult for him to obtain so many
23:51:14spirit fields, right? They have 15 Moo
23:51:17while I only have two Moo. The
23:51:19difference is simply too great. The fire
23:51:21crows circled above the bamboo grown
23:51:23spiritual field. At first, nothing
23:51:25happened, but perhaps because they
23:51:27stayed there for a while, a bright blue
23:51:29light suddenly appeared below. Suddenly,
23:51:31the firecrow seemed to be startled by
23:51:33something and turned to run away. Inside
23:51:36the room, Zhu Fushian, who was sitting
23:51:38cross-legged, opened his eyes and
23:51:40revealed a thoughtful expression. Why
23:51:42would a fire crow appear here? An hour
23:51:45later, Su Chongqing, who was lying in
23:51:47bed, opened his eyes, quickly reached
23:51:50out the window, and immediately caught a
23:51:52streak of blood red light. This is the
23:51:54fire crow that fled in panic. I spent an
23:51:56hour wandering around outside before I
23:51:58finally decided to come back. Although
23:52:00the owner can share the view with it,
23:52:02that's all. If the distance is too far,
23:52:04it is impossible to control the behavior
23:52:06with commands. Even an hour later, it
23:52:09still looked shaken, curled up in its
23:52:11owner's palm, its body trembling. It
23:52:13looked terrified, afraid, horrible old
23:52:16monster. Such Chongqing used his
23:52:18spiritual sense to perceive the fire
23:52:20crow's thoughts and ideas, and couldn't
23:52:22help but frown. In the very last moment,
23:52:25he still couldn't see what it was. A
23:52:27burst of blue light terrified the fire
23:52:29crow, which then flew uncontrollably for
23:52:31an hour before finally returning to the
23:52:33cabin. Of course, this wasn't without
23:52:35its gains. This at least proves that Zhu
23:52:38Fuian was by no means an old dying
23:52:40farmer. Everyone has secrets, and as
23:52:43long as the other party doesn't cause
23:52:44trouble, Su Chongqing won't care. Then,
23:52:47he took out a handful of top grade
23:52:48spirit rice from a second grade spirit
23:52:50field and fed it to the frightened fire
23:52:52crow. It didn't stop until it had
23:52:54completely calmed down. But the
23:52:56domestication process didn't actually
23:52:58end there. After all, there are still
23:53:00four fire crows in the spirit beast
23:53:02circle. Such Chonqing named the first
23:53:04fire crow he successfully tamed. Yada.
23:53:07Then a second command was issued to the
23:53:10great crow, instructing it to do
23:53:11everything in its power to make the
23:53:13remaining four of its kind submit in the
23:53:15shortest possible time. I threw it into
23:53:18the spirit beast enclosure and
23:53:19simultaneously entered with my spiritual
23:53:22sense, wanting to see what this thing
23:53:23would do. But they unexpectedly
23:53:25discovered a secret about the crow king.
23:53:27It was actually a bully who prayed on
23:53:29the weak. He appears timid and hesitant
23:53:32when faced with external things. When
23:53:34faced with its own kind, it actually
23:53:36launched a powerful attack. One wing
23:53:38lashed out and sent one of its kind
23:53:40flying. One claw tramples a fellow
23:53:42human. In just a short while, they were
23:53:45all knocked down. Compared to the large
23:53:47crow, the other four of their kind were
23:53:49tired, hungry, and thirsty, and their
23:53:51emotions were extremely unstable, so
23:53:54they quickly became docil. Gaaga, they
23:53:56kept making sounds of begging for mercy.
23:53:59Yada, on the other hand, looked every
23:54:01bit the victor. They straddled their own
23:54:03kind, chests puffed out, heads held
23:54:05high, arrogant, and hotty. Owner done.
23:54:09This guy has clearly forgotten that just
23:54:11an hour ago at Zu Fushin Spirit Field,
23:54:13he was so scared that he ran for an hour
23:54:15before daring to go home. Seeing this,
23:54:17Su Chongqing summoned the remaining four
23:54:20fire crows which had already submitted
23:54:22from the spirit beast circle one by one
23:54:24and began to tame them. The whole
23:54:26process was very smooth without any
23:54:28obstacles. The other four fire crows
23:54:31were also given names. Crow 2, Crow 3,
23:54:34Crow 4, Crow 5. Unfortunately, these
23:54:37four fire crows have far less potential
23:54:39than the crows. Fortunately, with a
23:54:41number of five, we can form the most
23:54:43basic fire crow formation. Moreover,
23:54:46every 10 hours, they will generate a
23:54:48drop of fire spirit liquid. This thing
23:54:50is equivalent to fire attribute spirit
23:54:52rice, which can help Su Chonqing
23:54:55increase the fire spirit power in his
23:54:56GC. Soon, the five fire crows gathered
23:54:59together and stood at the head of the
23:55:01bed. In the middle is Ya. The two on the
23:55:04left are crow two and crow three. The
23:55:06two on the right are crow four and crow
23:55:085. Compared to the large crow, the other
23:55:11four were a bit nervous at first, but
23:55:13gradually relaxed as their owner, Su
23:55:15Chongqing, fed them with top grade
23:55:17spirit rice. At the head of the bed,
23:55:19five fire crows looked expectantly at
23:55:21their master, waiting to be fed. Such
23:55:24Choning<unk>s heart stirred, and he
23:55:26suddenly closed his eyes. The next
23:55:28second, a very absurd scene appeared in
23:55:30my mind. Five firecrows actually shared
23:55:3210 images. All 10 images depict Su
23:55:35Chongqing sitting on the bed. You can
23:55:37see even the fine hairs on his body
23:55:39clearly. He raised his hand and without
23:55:41delay, he raised his own hand in the
23:55:44shared field of vision. No matter what
23:55:46action they take, it's as if they're
23:55:47being broadcast live. After playing for
23:55:49a while, feeling that the wood elemental
23:55:52power in his Danteon was completely
23:55:53exhausted, Su Chongqing retrieved his
23:55:56companion green lotus and then issued a
23:55:58collective command to the five fire
23:56:00crows. You all circle around the spirit
23:56:02field in the air. If anyone gets close,
23:56:05immediately make a sound. Chapter 172,
23:56:08The Spirit Field in Winter. A visit to
23:56:10Zhu Fushian. Chapter 172, The Spirit
23:56:13Field in Winter. Visiting Zhu<unk>s
23:56:15leisure time arrives in the morning.
23:56:17Such Chanqing took a chair and sat by
23:56:19the door holding three communication
23:56:21talismans in his hand. They are Li
23:56:23Sanankai Jang Su and Zu Fuin. Since I
23:56:27promised yesterday to help you Kaiing
23:56:29find the Yong positive medicinal herb
23:56:30Chiang Jins Singh and the E- negative
23:56:32medicinal herb Shien Ling Xi, I must
23:56:35take it seriously. But in the very core
23:56:37of this vast spiritual field, there are
23:56:39only a handful of people I truly know.
23:56:42Besides Xiao Xio and Xiaoing who have
23:56:44lost contact, there is also Lynn and who
23:56:47has gone missing. Currently, the only
23:56:49people who can help and might know the
23:56:50whereabouts of the medicinal herbs are
23:56:52these three. The first person to contact
23:56:54is Lee San Kai. After all, he was his
23:56:57good older brother and senior, so the
23:56:59two were closer. Therefore, Su Chongqing
23:57:02decisively injected the wood elemental
23:57:04power in his Dante into the other
23:57:06party's communication talisman. After a
23:57:08long while, Lissai's slightly tired
23:57:10voice finally came through. Hello,
23:57:13senior brother. It's me. Is there
23:57:15something you need so early in the
23:57:16morning? Do you know where I can buy Red
23:57:18Sun Jins Singh and Darkin Lingji? The
23:57:20spirit farmers who usually cooperate
23:57:22with the alchemy pavilion grow medicinal
23:57:24herbs, but I don't recognize them.
23:57:26Excuse me. Upon hearing this, Su
23:57:28Chongqing chose to hang up. You can tell
23:57:31from his voice that senior brotherly
23:57:32stayed up late last night. Let him get
23:57:34some more sleep. Logically speaking,
23:57:36Lingong was used to going to bed early
23:57:38and getting up early. Is 6:30 early? It
23:57:41shouldn't be too early, right? The sun
23:57:43is out. Immediately, Su Chongqing
23:57:45contacted the second person, Jeang Su.
23:57:48Senior brother Jeang works with the
23:57:50people from the alchemy pavilion, so he
23:57:51has a better understanding of medicinal
23:57:53herbs. As a result, the call took even
23:57:56longer to connect, and the person
23:57:58sounded more tired. Hello, senior
23:58:00brother Jeang. I am Su Chongqing. Junior
23:58:03brother Sue, is there something you need
23:58:05so early in the morning? Do you know any
23:58:07lingong who cultivates red sun jins
23:58:09singh and darken lingji anode medicinal
23:58:11materials and cathode medicinal
23:58:13materials? Yes, yes, yes. I huff. Tap
23:58:17tap tap. Click. Oh. Suddenly, a
23:58:20deafening snoring sound came from across
23:58:22the street. It felt like the
23:58:24communication symbols were vibrating. It
23:58:26was terrifying. Su Chongqing<unk>s lips
23:58:28twitched. Senior brother Jeang was
23:58:30sleeping while driving a tractor. It
23:58:32seems that both senior brother Lee and
23:58:34senior brother Jeang stayed up late last
23:58:36night. In that case, we can only place
23:58:38our hopes on Zu Fushian. After all, this
23:58:41person had spent many years in the core
23:58:43of the spirit field. They should know
23:58:45and probably even have connections. Of
23:58:47the three, Zhu Fushian connected the
23:58:49call the fastest. Almost as soon as the
23:58:51wood elemental power was injected, the
23:58:53other side noticed it. Such Chongqing
23:58:56quickly received an affirmative answer
23:58:57to his question. Although Zhu Fushian
23:59:00hasn't been cultivating red sun Jins
23:59:01Singh and mysterious En Ling Xi
23:59:03recently, he still has a batch of them
23:59:05stored in his personal storage items.
23:59:07Such Chanin can buy it anytime he needs
23:59:09it. This place is neither too far nor
23:59:12too close to Link Tian where Zhu Fushin
23:59:14lives. The fire crow or big leaf grass
23:59:17can be reached in about 10 minutes.
23:59:19After all, there are no obstacles in the
23:59:21sky and there is no need to cross
23:59:23mountains and rivers. Soon, Su Chongqing
23:59:26and Zu Fushian arranged a time to meet.
23:59:28See, sure. Approximately 9:30 a.m. Then
23:59:32the two simultaneously lost contact.
23:59:34This thing doesn't consume spirit
23:59:36stones, but it does consume spiritual
23:59:38energy. Moreover, the longer it lasts,
23:59:41the more it consumes. After carefully
23:59:43putting away the three communication
23:59:45talismans, Su Chongqing pondered, "When
23:59:47I visit senior brotherh this time,
23:59:49bringing only spirit stones will
23:59:51definitely not be enough. I also need to
23:59:54bring 10 caddies of top grade spirit
23:59:56rice wine. Firstly, it helps to build a
23:59:58closer relationship with the other
24:00:00party. Secondly, it helps to build a
24:00:02closer relationship with the other
24:00:03party. Thirdly, it's about building a
24:00:05closer relationship with the other
24:00:07party. Even if Zu Fushian had noticed
24:00:09what fire crow was spying on last night,
24:00:11it wouldn't have caused any trouble.
24:00:13After all, using fire crows to guard
24:00:15spirit fields and catch insects is a
24:00:17very common practice. Even if
24:00:19questioned, one can simply say that the
24:00:21fire crows fly around randomly. Next,
24:00:24Such Chan continued to take care of his
24:00:26two moo of second grade spiritual
24:00:28fields. Whether it's the golden crow
24:00:30vine, the bright moon grass, or the
24:00:32spirit rice, they all grow very
24:00:34vigorously. These two rare spiritual
24:00:36plants in particular are almost mature.
24:00:39Another issue is that the
24:00:40transplantation of mutant mother rice
24:00:42must be put on the agenda. It's such a
24:00:44waste not to leave it at the foot of the
24:00:46Rocky Mountain. It has such a good
24:00:48effect. An hour later, feeling that it
24:00:50was about time, Su Chongqing retrieved
24:00:52his companion green lotus, then summoned
24:00:55the large leaf grass and immediately
24:00:57flew towards Zhu Fushians spiritual
24:00:59field. The scenery along the way was
24:01:01quite nice, withered yellow leaves. The
24:01:04river water was cool and clear, frozen
24:01:06soil. The most striking feeling was one
24:01:08of profound tranquility. If autumn is a
24:01:11time of desolation, when all things
24:01:13begin to wither, that winter was cold
24:01:15and desolate and everything hit away.
24:01:18This scene reminded Su Chongqing of
24:01:20something he read in an ancient book.
24:01:22The book is titled the 72 seasonal
24:01:24phenomena. There are 24 solar terms in a
24:01:27year and each solar term is divided into
24:01:29three pentats for a total of 72 pentats.
24:01:33The current state of lintion is exactly
24:01:35the same as that of the zhaong pi who
24:01:37recorded in the book. The temperature is
24:01:39too low. The insects can't withstand it
24:01:41and they prepare to hibernate. All
24:01:44things in the world are beginning to
24:01:45gradually enter the stage of
24:01:47concealment. About 10 minutes later, Su
24:01:49Chongqing arrived outside Zu Fushians
24:01:51spiritual field. As soon as I got close,
24:01:54I had a strong feeling that I was being
24:01:56watched. No matter how hard I looked, I
24:01:58couldn't find the source. At this
24:02:00moment, he began to understand why Fire
24:02:02Crow had been so panicked last night. If
24:02:05Su Chongqing hadn't known that the owner
24:02:06of the spirit field was Zhu Fushian, he
24:02:09probably would have turned around and
24:02:10left. Then he called out to it. Senior
24:02:13brother Bamboo. They're here. They're
24:02:15here. Soon, a response came from inside.
24:02:18Not long after, Zhu Fushian walked out
24:02:20of the house step by step. A smile
24:02:22graced his aged face. Seeing this, Su
24:02:25Chongqing controlled the large leafed
24:02:27grass to land, waiting for the other
24:02:29party to open the door. The vast
24:02:31majority of spirit farmers will build
24:02:32fences and enclosures around their
24:02:34spirit fields. Although it's pointless
24:02:36to do this and no one can prevent it,
24:02:38but they will tell others that this
24:02:40place is occupied and not to mess
24:02:42around. More advanced spirit farmers
24:02:44would hire array masters to build a
24:02:46complete set of defensive arrays. It's
24:02:48completely undetectable on the surface,
24:02:50but once you get close or even break in,
24:02:53you'll be attacked immediately. Su
24:02:55Chongqing guessed that there must be
24:02:56some kind of powerful formation buried
24:02:58in this senior brotherh spiritual field.
24:03:01After all, 15 acres of second grade
24:03:03spirit fields can generate an annual
24:03:05income of at least 3,000 mid-grade
24:03:08spirit stones. Not to mention installing
24:03:10formations. Even purchasing spiritual
24:03:12artifacts is a piece of cake. Zu Fushian
24:03:15opened the fence gate and beckoned,
24:03:17"Junior Brother Su, come in. Don't
24:03:19underestimate this action." As soon as
24:03:21the door opened, Su Chongqing felt much
24:03:24more relaxed. Then, as he walked in, he
24:03:26took out the 10 caddies of top grade
24:03:28spirit rice wine he was carrying. Senior
24:03:31Brotherh Zhu, this is my first time
24:03:32here, so the preparations were a bit
24:03:34rushed. This is the spirit rice wine I
24:03:36brewed. Zhu Fuian was surprised. Junior
24:03:39brother can also brew wine. He opened
24:03:41the stopper, took a sniff, and his eyes
24:03:44widened immediately. Then the look in
24:03:46his eyes as he looked at the person in
24:03:48front of him was one of disbelief.
24:03:50Senior brother can also brew wine. Such
24:03:52Chanqing blinked. Zhu Fushian nodded
24:03:54slightly. When I'm bored, I brew wine,
24:03:57grow vegetables, and research spiritual
24:03:59cuisine. I never expected that my junior
24:04:01brother would be so skilled at brewing
24:04:03wine at such a young age. Although he
24:04:05hadn't tasted it yet, he could tell the
24:04:07quality just by smelling it. It doesn't
24:04:09have that unpleasant smell typical of
24:04:11cheap alcoholic beverages. Instead, it
24:04:14has a rich aroma of rice mixed with a
24:04:16mellow fragrance of wine. Just the aroma
24:04:18alone makes Zhu Fushian's throat bob,
24:04:21and he can't wait to take a sip right
24:04:23now. Chapter 173, Trading Good Medicinal
24:04:26Herbs. The two drink together. Chapter
24:04:29173, Trading Good Medicinal Herbs. Two
24:04:32people drink wine together. Zu Fushin's
24:04:34house is quite special. Other houses
24:04:36were either wooden, stone, or earthen,
24:04:39and his house was actually made of
24:04:41bamboo poles. It looks like there are
24:04:43only two floors from the outside, but
24:04:45each floor is four or 5 m high. The roof
24:04:48is covered with large patches of lush
24:04:50green bamboo leaves, which rustle in the
24:04:52wind. Yet, it doesn't feel out of place
24:04:54or out of place at all. On the contrary,
24:04:57it blends perfectly into the
24:04:58environment. When Su Chongqing followed
24:05:01Zhu Fushian into the house, almost
24:05:03everything he saw was related to bamboo.
24:05:05Without exception, all the items such as
24:05:08tables, chairs, benches, pots, pans, and
24:05:11bowls are made of bamboo. The air inside
24:05:14was filled with the fresh scent of
24:05:16bamboo. Zhu Fushian pointed to the stool
24:05:18made of green bamboo and said, "Junior
24:05:21brother, please sit down." "Okay." Such
24:05:23Chanin plopped down. Zhu Fushian placed
24:05:26the spirit rice wine on the bamboo table
24:05:28beside him, then asked with a smile,
24:05:30"This crimson Yong Jin Sen is a Yongype
24:05:32medicinal material, and the profound
24:05:34Enling Ling Xi is in type medicinal
24:05:36material. Are you helping a certain
24:05:38alchemist find materials?" Su Chongqing
24:05:41gave an affirmative answer. Yes, of
24:05:43course. Ukaiing was not an ordinary
24:05:45low-level alchemist. He was a highly
24:05:48renowned senior alchemist. At this
24:05:50moment, Zhu Fushian took out his storage
24:05:52item, a 3-in long piece of emerald green
24:05:54bamboo tube with silver cloud patterns
24:05:56on its surface, which was quite
24:05:58beautiful. Su Chongqing asked in
24:06:00surprise, "What kind of storage item is
24:06:02this?" Zhu Fushian replied, "The green
24:06:05spirit hides in the empty tube." Such
24:06:08Chanqin carefully recalled the books he
24:06:10had read, but found that he had no
24:06:12recollection of them. This storage item
24:06:14didn't even appear in the book. Or
24:06:16perhaps they haven't read enough books.
24:06:18Either this thing is extremely rare.
24:06:20Seeing the puzzled look on the other
24:06:22person's face, Zhu Fushin explained,
24:06:24"It's a very niche storage item that
24:06:26can't be bought on the market. I
24:06:28personally planted and cultivated it and
24:06:30then had someone refine it." Su
24:06:32Chongqing suddenly realized, "No wonder
24:06:34I have no recollection of this." Zhu
24:06:36Fushuin glanced at the small turquoise
24:06:38gourd at his waist and smiled. "Junior
24:06:41brother, this is not bad either." Su
24:06:43Chonin chuckled, but didn't show off
24:06:45intentionally. After all, they are
24:06:48guests. We shouldn't overshadow them.
24:06:50Since they know each other, that's
24:06:51enough. Zhu Fushian tapped the surface
24:06:54of the Azure Spirit hidden void cylinder
24:06:56with his right index finger, and it
24:06:58immediately produced a very crisp click
24:07:00click sound. In the blink of an eye, a
24:07:03crack appeared on the surface and two
24:07:05medicinal herbs emerged from it. They
24:07:07landed perfectly on the table, one on
24:07:09the left and one on the right. Such
24:07:11Chongqing scanned it with his spiritual
24:07:13scents and instantly identified it. On
24:07:15the left is a pale golden yellow jins
24:07:17sing. On the right is a bluish gray
24:07:20ganadermma lucidum. All of them are full
24:07:22of spiritual energy and perfectly
24:07:24preserved. These are the very medicinal
24:07:26materials that Yukai needs to refine the
24:07:29inyong intertwined pill. Zhu Fuian
24:07:31asked, "Junior brother, how many do you
24:07:33want to buy?" Su Chongqing replied, "100
24:07:36each." Yukaing has already mentioned
24:07:38this before. If used for alchemy, the
24:07:41quantity must not be too much, but it
24:07:43also cannot be too little. Taking into
24:07:45account factors such as failed alchemy
24:07:47attempts and accidental damage, 100
24:07:49plants are just right. Zhu Fushian
24:07:51nodded slightly and began to estimate
24:07:53the price. The current market price for
24:07:55Red Sun Jins Singh is three low-grade
24:07:57spirit stones per plant. So 100 plants
24:07:59would cost three mid-grade spirit
24:08:01stones. The current market price for a
24:08:04single Shenin Lingi is five low-grade
24:08:06spirit stones. So 100 Lingi would cost
24:08:08five mid-grade spirit stones. Eight
24:08:10mid-grade spirit stones in total. How
24:08:13about that? Su Chongqing used the spirit
24:08:15mirror to investigate the price of these
24:08:17two rare spiritual plants. And it was
24:08:19exactly as the other party had said,
24:08:21neither higher nor lower. Therefore, he
24:08:24decisively took out eight mid-grade
24:08:25spirit stones and handed them to the
24:08:27other party. With the spirit stones in
24:08:29hand, Zhu Fushian didn't waste any time
24:08:32and quickly spat out 100 crimson Yong
24:08:34Jins Singh and 100 profound En Ling Xi
24:08:37from the Azure spirit storage cylinder.
24:08:39The transaction was completed and the
24:08:41two exchanged a smile. That's the rhythm
24:08:43I'm looking for. This shows that neither
24:08:45of them are indecisive. Zhu Fushian was
24:08:48in a great mood at the moment, so he
24:08:50immediately got up and walked to the
24:08:51other side. Before long, he returned
24:08:53with a green bamboo tube with fresh
24:08:55knife marks on it. Besides the fragrance
24:08:58of bamboo, it also exudes a faint aroma
24:09:00of alcohol. "What is this?" Su Choning
24:09:03asked with a curious look. Zhu Fuin
24:09:06explained. This is a spirit wine that I
24:09:08have brewed by combining decades of
24:09:10experience, knowledge, and skills. Su
24:09:12Choning<unk>s eyes lit up, and he asked,
24:09:14"What's your name?" Zhu Fushian said
24:09:17with considerable pride, "Green bamboo
24:09:19wine." Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
24:09:22exclaimed, "What a wonderful name." Zhu
24:09:24Fushian opened the container, releasing
24:09:27an even stronger aroma and then poured a
24:09:29cup for Su Chongqing. The wine is the
24:09:31tender green color of newly sprouted
24:09:34bamboo shoots, and it shimmers with a
24:09:36silvery sheen when light shines through
24:09:38it. Judging from its color, it already
24:09:40belongs to the category of fine wine. It
24:09:42contains a faint wood elemental energy.
24:09:45With anticipation in his eyes, Zhu
24:09:47Fushian said, "Junior brother, please
24:09:49try it and see how my green bamboo wine
24:09:52tastes." Such Chongqing picked up the
24:09:54wine glass and first smelled it under
24:09:56his nose. The taste is like the
24:09:58refreshing coolness of bamboo forest
24:10:00after rain mixed with mountain spring
24:10:02water with a faint hint of the sweet
24:10:04fragrance of candied plums. Bring it to
24:10:06your lips and take a gentle sip. The
24:10:09moment it touches the tongue, there is a
24:10:11cool sensation like a clear spring which
24:10:13then transforms into a smooth
24:10:15bamboo-like texture, but it is not
24:10:17sticky at all. The seemingly cool drink
24:10:20once drunk actually warms you up. Su
24:10:22Chongqing looked at the other person in
24:10:24surprise. What's added to this? Zu
24:10:26Fushian nodded. Red Sun Jinseng. The
24:10:29initial version of green bamboo wine had
24:10:31a cool and refreshing taste. Drinking it
24:10:34feels like a snowb blade slicing through
24:10:35bamboo, chilling you to the bone. The
24:10:38quality has indeed improved, but he
24:10:40still feels something is missing. After
24:10:42various attempts, they finally added
24:10:44honey preserved plums and jinseng to it.
24:10:46The texture, flavor, and how it melts in
24:10:49your stomach, are immediately elevated
24:10:51to a whole new level. Such Chan put down
24:10:53his wine cup and couldn't help but say,
24:10:56"Senior brothers wine- makingaking
24:10:57skills, even if not the best in the
24:10:59entire daunting immortal sect, are
24:11:01definitely among the top three." Upon
24:11:04hearing this, Zhu Fushian smiled
24:11:06meaningfully and then poured himself a
24:11:08bowl of spirit rice wine. The wine was
24:11:10clear and bright, rippling with a
24:11:12spiritual light. The flavor has both the
24:11:14sweet aroma of rice and a hint of fresh
24:11:17earthiness after the ring. Upon tasting,
24:11:19it causes a slight tingling sensation on
24:11:21the tip of the tongue and is as smooth
24:11:23and mellow as cloud-like cotton water.
24:11:26It has none of the astringency of
24:11:27ordinary spirit rice wine, but instead
24:11:30has a natural sweetness like honey. It
24:11:32slid down my throat without any burning
24:11:34sensation. Instead, it's like drinking
24:11:37from a sacred spring, a gentle
24:11:39moistening sensation flowing directly
24:11:41into the internal organs. It has a
24:11:43lingering sweetness and a fragrant
24:11:45aftertaste, just like having just eaten
24:11:47a bowl of spiritual rice. The wood
24:11:49elemental energy in the cheese sea even
24:11:52accelerated its circulation. Zhu Fushian
24:11:54blurted out, "Good wine." The mere
24:11:56spirit rice wine actually had such a
24:11:58taste, texture, and effect which made
24:12:01him look at his junior brother Sue in a
24:12:02new light. This young man's brewing
24:12:04skills are definitely no less than mine.
24:12:07Your green bamboo wine is also a fine
24:12:09wine. Senior brother Su Chongqing picked
24:12:11up his wine cup. The two clinkedked it
24:12:13together and then drank it all in one
24:12:15gulp. Then they drank and chatted. They
24:12:18didn't seem like they'd only known each
24:12:20other for a few days. Rather, they felt
24:12:22like longtime drinking buddies. Zhu
24:12:24Fushin sighed. <unk>It<unk>s been a long
24:12:26time since anyone has accompanied me for
24:12:28a drink. Seeing you, Junior Brother Su,
24:12:31always reminds me of that old friend who
24:12:33has passed away. Su Chongqing blinked.
24:12:36From now on, Junior brother will often
24:12:38come to drink with you. Zu Fushian
24:12:40grinned and said, "That's great. Chapter
24:12:43174. The weather is getting colder, but
24:12:45my heart is getting warmer." Chapter
24:12:47174. The weather grew colder, but my
24:12:49heart grew warmer. An hour later, Su
24:12:52Chongqin got up and left. Zhu Fushuin
24:12:55personally saw him off at the door. Once
24:12:57they were outside the fence, Su Chongqin
24:12:59cuped his hands in greeting and said,
24:13:01"Senior brother, I'll see you off here."
24:13:04Zhu Fuian suddenly asked, "Junior
24:13:06brother Su, do you know that there are
24:13:07fire crows in this area?" Su Chongqing
24:13:10was taken aback for a moment, then
24:13:12nodded happily. I know. Zhu Fuian
24:13:14reminded him. Firecrows like to eat
24:13:16things with fire attributes. Don't
24:13:18expose the crimson sun Jen you just got
24:13:21or it will attract its covetousness. Su
24:13:23Chongqing waved his hand and readily
24:13:25admitted, "Don't worry, senior brother.
24:13:28I bought these fire crows from the earth
24:13:30fire zone yesterday. There are five of
24:13:31them in total. Since the other party has
24:13:34already noticed and specifically
24:13:35reminded us, therefore, one cannot
24:13:38pretend not to know or even deliberately
24:13:40conceal it. There are quite a few people
24:13:42who know about this. For example, Hubui
24:13:45Lui and the introducer Wong Xiang. You
24:13:48can hide it for a while, but you can't
24:13:50hide it forever. Anyone who is
24:13:52interested in investigating will soon
24:13:54find out the answer. After all, most
24:13:56fire crows come from the Earth Fire
24:13:57Zone. Zhu Fushian suddenly realized,
24:14:00"So, it was raised by my junior brother.
24:14:02Then, it's all right." Su Chongqing
24:14:04asked knowingly, "How did you know there
24:14:06were fire crows? Senior brother?" Zhu
24:14:08Fushian replied with a smile. There was
24:14:11one last night that happened to fly over
24:14:12here. I was wondering where it came from
24:14:14when I found out it was my junior
24:14:16brother who just started raising it.
24:14:18Such Chongqing immediately asked
24:14:20anxiously, "Did it harm your spiritual
24:14:22plant?" Zhu Fushian said with
24:14:24considerable confidence, "In my spirit
24:14:26field, there is a complete set of
24:14:28advanced defensive formations. A mere
24:14:30fire crow, let alone attacking spirit
24:14:33plants, would be killed by the gung
24:14:34metal energy if it dared to enter. Then
24:14:37you can rest assured, junior brother.
24:14:39I'm off. Such Chanqing breathed a sigh
24:14:42of relief, cuped his hands in greeting
24:14:44again, then summoned the large leaf
24:14:46grass. As soon as he stepped on it, he
24:14:48was lifted into the air and flew away
24:14:50into the distance. Zhu Fushian watched
24:14:52his departing junior brother, Su, with a
24:14:55particularly profound gaze. On the way
24:14:57home, Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow.
24:15:00That's not right. The chi of gung metal
24:15:02is white, but what I saw last night was
24:15:04clearly blue. This shows that the other
24:15:06party was not telling the truth.
24:15:08However, this allows us to analyze two
24:15:10possible scenarios. First, this senior
24:15:13brotherh doesn't trust me. Second, the
24:15:16other party was unaware that the fire
24:15:18crow could share vision. Upon realizing
24:15:20what was happening, Su Chongqing gave a
24:15:22rise smile. Everyone has secrets.
24:15:24Neither of them told the truth, but as
24:15:27long as their respective interests are
24:15:28not affected, they will definitely not
24:15:30break off relations. After all, in the
24:15:33area he lived in, only Zhu Fuian could
24:15:35be considered a neighbor. Of course, we
24:15:37should add the phrase neighbors who are
24:15:39a 10-minute flight away. The reason Su
24:15:41Chongqing chose this acre of second
24:15:43grade spirit field was because it was
24:15:45remote enough that there were no fellow
24:15:47disciples around, so he didn't have to
24:15:49worry about being spied on. Now, with
24:15:51five more fire crows surrounding them,
24:15:53security has been greatly enhanced. 10
24:15:55minutes later, Su Chongqing returned to
24:15:58his own spiritual field. It's the same
24:16:00as when I left. It's the same as before.
24:16:03Wong Wong wandered around, occasionally
24:16:05digging at a spot in the soil. The
24:16:07guinea foul waited nearby for its chance
24:16:09to strike, and if there was an insect,
24:16:11it would eat it in one bite. The
24:16:13fortress, having been filled with the
24:16:15spring water it normally needed, was
24:16:17sitting under the popppler tree,
24:16:18seemingly idling in the spring. Seeing
24:16:20that it was already noon, Sue Chongqing
24:16:23threw the companion lotus into the
24:16:24second grade spirit field on the right
24:16:26and went into the kitchen to start
24:16:28cooking. But this time, there was an
24:16:30extra item in the food called fire
24:16:32spirit liquid. This thing looks a bit
24:16:34like red chili oil. Because they learned
24:16:36the fire crow chi cultivation method,
24:16:38the five fire crows can produce five
24:16:40drops of fire spirit liquid containing
24:16:42fire spirit energy every 10 hours. Its
24:16:45function is actually similar to that of
24:16:47spirit rice. Both can be used for
24:16:49absorption and refining. Because there
24:16:51are only five fire crows, there are only
24:16:54five drops of fire spirit liquid, which
24:16:56together make up only a small dish of
24:16:58vinegar. Su Chongqing drank it down in
24:17:00one gulp. Feeling a warm sensation
24:17:03flowed down his throat and into his
24:17:05stomach. After refining using the fiery
24:17:07refining method, the fire elemental
24:17:09power in my chi c increased slightly. He
24:17:12estimated that 100 drops of fire spirit
24:17:14liquid should increase fire spirit power
24:17:16by 1%. 100 drops of fire spirit liquid
24:17:20require 100 tamed fire crows to provide.
24:17:23No matter how you look at it, the price
24:17:24performance ratio is very low. The best
24:17:27way to increase fire elemental power is
24:17:29actually to move to a fire dominated
24:17:31area. The area was filled with fire
24:17:33elemental energy which was especially
24:17:35concentrated when alchemy was being
24:17:37performed. Therefore, for cultivators
24:17:39with fire spiritual roots, each alchemy
24:17:42session is equivalent to cultivation.
24:17:44This is similar to how wood-based
24:17:46spiritual roots cultivate crops.
24:17:48Water-based spiritual roots draw
24:17:50talismans and earth-based spiritual
24:17:52roots mine minerals. Different spiritual
24:17:54roots have different cultivation
24:17:55methods. After having some free time,
24:17:58Such Chonqing lay on the wooden bed,
24:18:00seemingly taking a nap, but actually
24:18:02pondering whether to cultivate the
24:18:03cultivation technique, nine flames
24:18:06profound art, or the spell blazing
24:18:08sunfinger. As the name suggests, the
24:18:11nine flames mystic art has a total of
24:18:13nine colors. Different colored flames
24:18:15have different effects and powers.
24:18:17Currently, this incomplete piece only
24:18:19has four colors: red, orange, yellow,
24:18:22and blue. Of course, if Su Chongqing
24:18:24learns this, he can use his lifespan to
24:18:26make up for it. As for the blazing sun
24:18:28finger, its effect is to concentrate
24:18:30extreme high temperatures at the
24:18:32fingertips. After the completion, it
24:18:34seems that the finger force transforms
24:18:36into a rainbow ranged attack method can
24:18:39be obtained. After much deliberation and
24:18:41weighing the pros and cons, Such Choning
24:18:44abandoned the spell fierce sunfinger.
24:18:46It's not needed for now since I'm not
24:18:48participating in the formal disciple
24:18:50competition. As for cultivation
24:18:52techniques, although the blazing fire
24:18:54cooking oil technique is sufficient, its
24:18:56level is not high as it is aqi refining
24:18:59stage technique. Switching to the nine
24:19:01flames profound technique, which offers
24:19:04even greater control over flames, would
24:19:06undoubtedly be a better choice. Such
24:19:08Chonqing immediately began to study
24:19:10diligently. The fire crow will give an
24:19:12early warning if someone approaches. The
24:19:15fortress will proactively clean up the
24:19:16droppings of the guinea fowl and other
24:19:18birds. As for the two acres of grade two
24:19:21spirit fields outside, there's no need
24:19:23to pay attention to them all the time.
24:19:25In this way, Su Chonqing will have more
24:19:27time to learn the Henine Flames profound
24:19:29technique. Although neither the finest
24:19:31spirit rice wine nor the finest yellow
24:19:34rice wine can accelerate the learning
24:19:36speed of fire tribute cultivation
24:19:37techniques. Fortunately, one of the
24:19:40effects of the premium yellow rice wine
24:19:41is that it increases the speed of
24:19:43comprehending advanced techniques by 30%
24:19:46when one is slightly tipsy. Given your
24:19:48current comprehension and knowledge
24:19:50base, you should be able to get started
24:19:52smoothly in less than a month. Days pass
24:19:54by, the temperature is dropping day by
24:19:56day. A chill that seeped into the very
24:19:58bones enveloped the vast spiritual
24:20:00field. It does have some impact on
24:20:02spiritual plants. But for Ling Nong, and
24:20:05especially for Su Chongqing, there was
24:20:07no major problem. When he had the wood
24:20:09spirit route, he was no longer afraid of
24:20:11the cold. Now that I have the fire
24:20:13elemental root, I have even less to
24:20:15fear. At this moment, Su Chongqing was
24:20:18only wearing a thin white shirt,
24:20:20standing on the edge of the field. A
24:20:22cold wind blew and Wong Long at my feet
24:20:24couldn't help but shiver a few times.
24:20:26The fawning look on its face vanished
24:20:28instantly. It was so cold that it ran
24:20:30back to its doghouse in a flash, curling
24:20:32its whole body into a ball. As for the
24:20:35guinea fowl, they haven't left their
24:20:36nests for a long time. They've already
24:20:38settled into a life where food is served
24:20:41to them, living a very carefree
24:20:43existence. Only the fire crows remained
24:20:45active, flying around everyday. At this
24:20:48moment, Su Chonqing looked at the mature
24:20:50golden crow vine and bright moon grass
24:20:52in the spirit field and silently raised
24:20:54the sickle in his hand. Chapter 175
24:20:57spirit field meeting. I'm so desperate
24:21:00to improve. Chapter 175 spirit field
24:21:02meeting. I want to improve too much. Su
24:21:05Chongqing first came to the side of the
24:21:07bright moon grass. Because it was
24:21:09already mature, it did not absorb
24:21:11moonlight. Each plant is 7 in long and
24:21:14curved like a crescent moon. The cool
24:21:16serene environment combined with the
24:21:18silver spiritual plants creates a very
24:21:21beautiful scene. Moonongrass mature
24:21:24abundant spiritual energy. No damage.
24:21:27Today's best 500 strains. 500 bright
24:21:30moonrass plants were planted in this
24:21:32acre of grade 2 spirit field. The
24:21:35quantity is half that of last time. The
24:21:37main reason is that UTI's demand has
24:21:39decreased and she no longer needs that
24:21:41much. Fortunately, these two rare
24:21:43spiritual plants grow very quickly,
24:21:46maturing every half month and being
24:21:48harvested twice a month, which makes up
24:21:50for the loss caused by their small
24:21:51quantity. Therefore, Such Chonqing did
24:21:54not hesitate and decisively harvested
24:21:56the crops. Harvest one premium
24:21:58moonongrass plant, lifespan increased by
24:22:007 days. Harvest 500 premium moonongrass
24:22:04plants, lifespan increased by 3,500
24:22:07days. Because the quantity is small, the
24:22:09efficiency is high. After finishing, Su
24:22:12Chonqing immediately headed towards the
24:22:14golden crow vine. It's winter now and
24:22:16the temperature is very low, yet they
24:22:18exude a warm aura. Mature golden crow
24:22:20vines, each over 3 m long, look fierce
24:22:24and menacing. The proper way to harvest
24:22:26is not to cut off the entire plant as
24:22:28that would be wasteful. Once they
24:22:30mature, they will form a round nodule at
24:22:32the base which contains all the solar
24:22:35energy absorbed throughout the entire
24:22:37process. This is exactly what Yuka needs
24:22:39for refining elixirs. Although the
24:22:41entire golden crow vine will shrink once
24:22:44it loses its nodes, it may even wither
24:22:46if the soil is not nutrient-rich enough.
24:22:49However, the tendrils, leaves, and other
24:22:51parts will still be preserved. Simply
24:22:53put, as long as there are enough
24:22:55nutrients in the soil, new nodules can
24:22:57form. There's no need for a second round
24:22:59of planting. Once the time is up,
24:23:02harvesting can continue. Such Chanqing
24:23:04was not worried about this at all, as
24:23:06the soil in this acre of grade 2
24:23:08spiritual field was extremely
24:23:10nutrient-rich black soil. Not only were
24:23:12there excrement from century old spirit
24:23:14beasts brought by Hubu from the spirit
24:23:16beast valley, Ziao Ziwa also uses the
24:23:19little cloud rain technique every now
24:23:21and then. And the disciples with the
24:23:23earth spirit root loosen the soil before
24:23:25planting. He even cultivates it himself
24:23:27everyday using the companion lotus. If
24:23:30it still withers, then there's really no
24:23:32reasoning with it. He immediately
24:23:34scanned the area with his spiritual
24:23:35sense to confirm the information. Golden
24:23:38crowvine, mature, abundant spiritual
24:23:41energy, no damage. Today's best 100
24:23:44sticks. Sure enough, this applies to the
24:23:47moon grass, which absorbs moonlight and
24:23:49grows only at night. It is a golden crow
24:23:51vine that absorbs sunlight and only
24:23:53grows during the day. With Such
24:23:55Chongqing's current planning
24:23:56capabilities, once it grows, it will
24:23:58definitely reach the highest quality.
24:24:01This time, however, he didn't use a
24:24:03sickle, but instead used a small hoe for
24:24:05digging. He then squatted down and began
24:24:07to dig out the round nodules in the
24:24:09black soil one by one. Harvesting one
24:24:12premium golden crow vine increases its
24:24:14lifespan by 7 days. Harvest 100 premium
24:24:17golden crow vine vines, increasing its
24:24:20lifespan by 700 days. Only half an hour
24:24:23had passed by the time everything was
24:24:25finished. This harvest added 4,200 days
24:24:28to Sue Choning<unk>s lifespan. Final
24:24:30remaining lifespan 691 years. The losses
24:24:34incurred from improving cultivation
24:24:36techniques and spells have now been
24:24:38partially recovered. Although it's not
24:24:39much, don't forget that this is just the
24:24:42harvest from one acre of spiritual land.
24:24:44On another acre of second grade
24:24:46spiritual field, many spiritual rice,
24:24:48vegetables, and four-leaf clovers also
24:24:50grow. This is the main event and one of
24:24:53the primary sources of the harvester's
24:24:55lifespan. Of course, there were also
24:24:57some regrets. Such Chonqing tried both
24:25:00the bright moon grass and the golden
24:25:01crow vine with his fingertip.
24:25:03Unfortunately, without exception, none
24:25:06of them mutated. If even one stock or
24:25:08one plant succeeds, the profits will
24:25:10increase 10fold. He didn't continue
24:25:12planting moon grass in the empty spirit
24:25:14field, intending to wait and see.
24:25:16We<unk>ll wait for news from you, Kai,
24:25:18to see if she wants any other spiritual
24:25:20plants. If not needed, Su Chongqing
24:25:23transplanted the mutated mother rice.
24:25:25Take advantage of the winter season to
24:25:27cultivate a batch of mutant rice. We
24:25:29must have a prosperous new year no
24:25:30matter what. Time flies and it's noon.
24:25:33Such Chongqing was making lunch when
24:25:35Hubui and Xiao Xua arrived together.
24:25:38What a coincidence. It just happened to
24:25:40be lunchtime. Not to mention the long
24:25:42distance the two of them had traveled.
24:25:44One is in the Spirit Beast Valley. One
24:25:46is in the Imperial Water Pavilion. This
24:25:48was clearly planned in advance. who
24:25:50Buguay looked around and couldn't help
24:25:52but say, "Old Sue, you used to only have
24:25:55one person and one dog here. How come
24:25:57you have everything now? Nowadays,
24:25:59besides dogs, there were also guinea
24:26:01fowl that I had given them myself and
24:26:04the five fire crows that I bought not
24:26:05long ago. There was even a 2 m tall
24:26:07puppet." Ziao Xiwa wholeheartedly
24:26:10agreed, saying, "It's even more lively
24:26:12than my fish tank. Have you ever had any
24:26:14fish in your fish tank?" Su Chaning
24:26:17asked, pursing his lips. Ziao Xiua was
24:26:19speechless. Su Chongqing continued,
24:26:22"Isn't it better to make it more
24:26:23lively?" Hubui and Xiao Xiua exchanged a
24:26:26glance, then chuckled. Although it looks
24:26:28lively, I always feel like something's
24:26:31missing. Such Chanin could tell from the
24:26:33guy's expression that he was up to no
24:26:34good, but he couldn't suppress his
24:26:36curiosity and asked, "What's missing?"
24:26:39Hubuay pulled a paper figure out of his
24:26:41storage bag and said with a wicked grin,
24:26:43"Remember this thing? I wouldn't sell it
24:26:45to anyone else who wanted to buy it, so
24:26:47I specially saved it for you for 2
24:26:49years. Such Chongqing opened his mouth,
24:26:51but after a long pause, he managed to
24:26:53utter a single word, get lost. Hubuay
24:26:56was just joking, so he immediately put
24:26:58it away. Upon hearing this, Ziao Xiua
24:27:01couldn't help but ponder, "Old Su, it's
24:27:04meaningless for you to just raise dogs,
24:27:06chickens, fire crows, and even puppets.
24:27:09What you really need by your side is a
24:27:11living, breathing dowist companion."
24:27:13Hubui nodded. That's right. We're both
24:27:16looking for Dao partners, but he only
24:27:18knows how to farm all day long. I guess
24:27:20he didn't even attend the spirit field
24:27:21meeting a few nights ago. Such Chongqing
24:27:24was taken aback. What meeting? Seeing
24:27:26his reaction, the two were not surprised
24:27:28at all. Hubui said irritably. A few
24:27:31nights ago, a meeting was held in your
24:27:33core management office palace. It was
24:27:35like a matchmaking event in a sea of
24:27:37flowers specifically to solve the
24:27:39problem of Lingong lacking Daist
24:27:41partners. Ziao Xiwa asked incredulously.
24:27:44Even we know this. How come you don't?
24:27:46Su Chongqing was stunned. And then he
24:27:48realized why senior brother Lee and
24:27:50senior brother Jeang still looked like
24:27:52they hadn't woken up yet even though it
24:27:54was 6:30 in the morning. Wow. So they
24:27:56were all at a meet and greet that night.
24:27:58At that time I was completely absorbed
24:28:00in the shared vision of the fire crows.
24:28:03There's no doubt that someone will
24:28:04notify you. But he was completely
24:28:06unaware or perhaps oblivious. Well,
24:28:09Hubuguay sighed softly. Old Su,
24:28:12sometimes I really wonder if there's
24:28:14something wrong with your sexual
24:28:15orientation. Su Chongqing rolled his
24:28:17eyes. You're the one with the problem.
24:28:19Pubui snorted. If you had no problem,
24:28:22why did you replace by linger with old
24:28:24Xiao? Upon hearing this, Ziao Zu's face
24:28:27turned red with anger. You fatso, why
24:28:30are you trying to sway me? He didn't
24:28:32know if there was anything wrong with La
24:28:34Su<unk>s sexual orientation. But my own
24:28:36orientation is absolutely fine. It's
24:28:38just that nobody wants it. Su Chongqing
24:28:41wanted to explain, but looking into
24:28:43Hubu<unk>'s wise eyes, it took him a
24:28:45long time to finally manage to utter a
24:28:47complete sentence. I really want to
24:28:49improve. Chapter 176. Coming to freeload
24:28:52a meal and then eating the spirit
24:28:54stones. Chapter 176. He came to freeload
24:28:58a meal and after eating the spirit
24:28:59stones, he heard that Su Chongqing was
24:29:02obsessed with farming because he only
24:29:03wanted to improve. Hubuay and Xiao Zua
24:29:06were speechless for a moment. After all,
24:29:09no outsider could stop Su Chongqing from
24:29:11making progress, let alone his own
24:29:13people. However, both Hubu and Ziao Xiu
24:29:16were somewhat surprised and even
24:29:18admired. Other spiritual farmers or
24:29:20rather most cultivators find it
24:29:22difficult to settle down and focus on
24:29:24their careers. Either they are
24:29:26dissatisfied with the status quo. Either
24:29:28they are naturally restless, unlike Su
24:29:30Chongqing, who has lived a secluded life
24:29:33ever since joining the core of the
24:29:34spiritual field, staying in his own
24:29:36little world, and not even interested in
24:29:38a Dowist partner. Admittedly, being only
24:29:4120 years old is nothing compared to the
24:29:43long lifespan of cultivators, which can
24:29:46easily reach hundreds of years. But days
24:29:48pass one by one, not in the blink of an
24:29:50eye. If you don't enrich yourself, every
24:29:52day will be extremely boring and
24:29:54tedious. Why do many spiritual farmers
24:29:57want to find a spiritual partner? This
24:29:59is one of the reasons. Even if a person
24:30:01keeps dogs, cats, or all sorts of spirit
24:30:04beasts and pets, it seemed like there
24:30:06were many people and it was very lively.
24:30:08But in reality, he is still the same
24:30:10person and has never changed from
24:30:12beginning to end. As Su Chongqing served
24:30:14the food, he said, "I really can't
24:30:16understand why people are so eager to
24:30:18find a Daist partner." Hubuay scratched
24:30:21his head and tentatively asked,
24:30:22"Lonely?" Ziao Xiwa glanced at the two
24:30:25of them and truthfully said what he was
24:30:27thinking. I'm too bored by myself. I
24:30:29want to find a daist partner to go
24:30:31fishing with Such Chanqing and Hub
24:30:34Buguay spat at him simultaneously. Ziao
24:30:36Xiu was a little unconvinced and
24:30:38questioned. I just like fishing. So is
24:30:40it wrong for me to find a Daist partner
24:30:42who also likes fishing? Hubu was stunned
24:30:45for a moment. What old Xiao said seems
24:30:47to make sense. Su Chongqing waved his
24:30:50hand and pondered. Forget it. I don't
24:30:52care whether you find a Dowist partner
24:30:54or not, but why does the immortal sect
24:30:56care? Another blind date amidst the sea
24:30:58of flowers. It's another link meet and
24:31:00greet. It seems that the highranking
24:31:02immortals place great importance on
24:31:04these lower level cultivators finding
24:31:06Daist partners. Ziao spoke first. I have
24:31:10heard of this. The immortal sect intends
24:31:12to form small cultivation families
24:31:14within itself, thereby deeply binding
24:31:16the lower level cultivators. Oh, Su
24:31:19Chonqing raised an eyebrow. Hubi said
24:31:22thoughtfully, "I haven't heard anything
24:31:24about Lao Xiao, but I know something
24:31:26from someone who's been there in the
24:31:27Spirit Beast Valley. That might be the
24:31:29answer you're looking for." Su Chongqing
24:31:31and Xiao Zua exchanged a glance, then
24:31:34looked at each other curiously. "What?"
24:31:36Hubui said, "Seriously, children born to
24:31:39cultivators with compatible spiritual
24:31:41roots who become lovers or husband and
24:31:43wife have a higher probability of
24:31:45awakening their spiritual roots. For
24:31:48example, the father has a wood elemental
24:31:50root and the mother has a water
24:31:51elemental root. That child will most
24:31:54likely awaken a wood elemental root. Of
24:31:56course, there is also a small chance of
24:31:58awakening the water elemental root.
24:32:01There is even a very very small chance
24:32:03of awakening the dual spiritual roots of
24:32:05water and wood. As for different
24:32:07spiritual roots, they do exist, but they
24:32:10are very rare. Although most cultivators
24:32:12who awaken their spiritual roots come
24:32:14from the secular world, they are
24:32:16selected from among them much like the
24:32:18process of sifting through sand.
24:32:20However, small cultivation families or
24:32:22households within the immortal sect do
24:32:24not have as many concerns because they
24:32:26watched him grow up and his parents are
24:32:28deeply connected to the immortal sect.
24:32:30They are more trustworthy. Su Chonqing
24:32:33suddenly realized, "No wonder there are
24:32:35so many families." What linked Rangja,
24:32:38the leaf family of Yushua Pavilion.
24:32:40There is also the Bayon cliffchio
24:32:42family. Each region has one large
24:32:44cultivation family and many smaller
24:32:46cultivation families. As for families
24:32:48focused on cultivating immortality, they
24:32:50are countless. To put it bluntly, the
24:32:52children born to low-level cultivators
24:32:54will most likely remain at the low level
24:32:56in the future. Unless one possesses
24:32:59extraordinary talent, exceptional
24:33:01comprehension, and remarkable luck, one
24:33:03cannot escape the clutches of the
24:33:05immortal sect. Looking at the rather
24:33:07plentiful meal on the table, Hubuay
24:33:09couldn't help but swallow hard. I'm
24:33:11telling you, there's no point in
24:33:13thinking too much. Low-level cultivators
24:33:15should have the awareness of low-level
24:33:17cultivators. Let's eat early. Xiao Zua
24:33:20understood immediately and nodded
24:33:22hastily. Yes, neither of us has had
24:33:24lunch yet. Su Chongqing knew these two
24:33:27wanted to freload a meal, so he felt bad
24:33:29refusing. Eat up, eat up. Hubui
24:33:32chuckled. I'll get the bowl. Ziao Xua
24:33:34followed closely behind. I'll get the
24:33:36chopsticks. After saying that, the two
24:33:39went into the kitchen. Such Chanqing
24:33:41hadn't noticed at first, but when there
24:33:43was still no movement inside, he
24:33:45couldn't help but glance over and
24:33:47discovered that the two weren't in the
24:33:48kitchen at all. He immediately said
24:33:50irritably, "There's no light in the
24:33:52basement." "What's in the basement?"
24:33:54"Linny whine," "These two guys aren't
24:33:56content with just free meals. They also
24:33:58have to freload on drinks." Fortunately,
24:34:00they didn't take too much. Each person
24:34:03took half a gene of the finest spirit
24:34:05rice wine. Half an hour later, the three
24:34:07of them finished all the food on the
24:34:09table. Sweet potato and rice mixed grain
24:34:11rice, stir-fried tomatoes and eggs,
24:34:14stir-fried eggs with chili peppers.
24:34:16There wasn't a single drop left. They
24:34:18practically licked the plate clean.
24:34:20Oops. Hubui patted his round belly and
24:34:23smiled with satisfaction. Old Su, your
24:34:26cooking is still the best to my taste.
24:34:28Su Chongqing placed the bowls and
24:34:30chopsticks in the kitchen sink. then
24:34:32came out and raised his chin. We've
24:34:34eaten and drunk the spirit rice wine.
24:34:36Now it's time to get down to business.
24:34:38Hubuay nodded slightly and took out a
24:34:41small storage bag. Inside are our
24:34:42franchise fee, food supply fee, and all
24:34:45sorts of other fees for this month. How
24:34:47much? Ziaoa asked eagerly. Upon hearing
24:34:50this, Hubu opened the small storage bag,
24:34:53then turned it over and shook it against
24:34:55the table. Immediately, one spirit stone
24:34:58after another rolled out from inside.
24:35:00For a moment, the sounds of clanging and
24:35:02banging rang out continuously. It even
24:35:05sound somewhat pleasant. The dazzling
24:35:07light made the three of them dizzy.
24:35:09After pouring them all out, Su Chongqing
24:35:11scanned them with his spiritual sense.
24:35:13380 mid-grade spirit stones and 3,663
24:35:18lowgrade spirit stones. Ziao Xi was
24:35:21surprised. It's much less than last
24:35:22time. If he remembers correctly, it was
24:35:25during the last time they split the
24:35:26profits. 440 medium-grade spirit stones,
24:35:305,683
24:35:32lowgrade spirit stones. Moreover, that's
24:35:35the net profit after deducting costs.
24:35:37Hubuay shrugged. It's good enough if we
24:35:40can make a profit. Casting Peak is no
24:35:42longer our exclusive domain. It's now a
24:35:44place where all sorts of people are
24:35:46gathered. Franchise fees are decreasing.
24:35:48The main sources of income are the
24:35:50supply fees for ingredients provided to
24:35:52the stalls as well as the fees generated
24:35:54by regular customers who come to buy
24:35:56ingredients. Following this trend, the
24:35:59number of spirit stones earned will
24:36:00decrease over time. Su Chongqing
24:36:03remained calm as he had anticipated this
24:36:05outcome and thus focused most of his
24:36:07attention on the loose cultivator
24:36:09market. Don't underestimate the poorness
24:36:11of independent cultivators. Their
24:36:13numbers are numerous. Now the cost of 20
24:36:16mid-grade spirit stones has been
24:36:17reduced. Su Chongqing, Lienkai, Xiao,
24:36:21Xiua, and Hubu will divide the remaining
24:36:23360 mid-grade spirit stones and 3,663
24:36:28lowgrade spirit stones. Liangai took 20%
24:36:31of the total profit, including 72
24:36:34mid-grade spirit stones and 732 lowgrade
24:36:37spirit stones. The remaining 80% of the
24:36:39total profit will be divided among the
24:36:41three people. Xiao Zua took onetenth of
24:36:44the prize, taking away 29 mid-grade
24:36:46spirit stones and 293 lowgrade spirit
24:36:49stones. Hubui took 20%, taking away 58
24:36:53mid-grade spirit stones and 644 lowgrade
24:36:57spirit stones. Such Chanqing took 70% of
24:37:00the prize, including 201 mid-grade
24:37:03spirit stones and 202 lowgrade spirit
24:37:06stones. Chapter 177. A series of visits
24:37:09led to arranged blind dates thanks to
24:37:12listening to the rain for the generous
24:37:14gift. Chapter 177. One after another,
24:37:17they came to my door and arranged a
24:37:19blind date. Thanks to listening to the
24:37:21rain for the big gift. After Hubui and
24:37:24Xiao Ziwa left, Su Chongqing took out
24:37:27Li's communication talisman. As soon as
24:37:29a trace of wood elemental power was
24:37:31injected, the other end quickly
24:37:33connected. Junior brother Sue, senior
24:37:36brother, how did you know it was me? No
24:37:38one but you will ever reach out to me.
24:37:40Senior brother, it's that time of day
24:37:42again at the weapon forging peak. Come
24:37:44to wealth. May wealth come. Come. After
24:37:47the communication ended, Su Chongqing
24:37:49carefully put away the communication
24:37:51talisman. He then went outside and found
24:37:53the fortress, instructing it to take
24:37:55good care of the spirit field. Then he
24:37:58summoned the large leafed grass and his
24:38:00whole body rose from the ground quickly
24:38:02disappearing into the distance. When
24:38:04they arrived at Lissai spirit field, he
24:38:07was already sitting in the pavilion
24:38:08waiting and even the fence gate had been
24:38:10opened in advance. In fact, Su Chongqing
24:38:13didn't need to walk in through the door.
24:38:15He could have simply flown to Li's side
24:38:17using the large leaf grass without any
24:38:19problem. After all, the two were too
24:38:22familiar with each other and had a very
24:38:23good relationship. But Su Chongqing
24:38:26wouldn't do that. It would be impolite.
24:38:28Only by respecting others will you earn
24:38:30their respect. No matter how many times
24:38:32he came, Su Chongqing would ride the big
24:38:34leafed grass to land outside the fence
24:38:36gate, then wipe the mud off the soles of
24:38:38his shoes before stepping inside. Li
24:38:40Sanankai filled the empty teacup
24:38:42opposite him with hot tea, then asked,
24:38:44"Junior brother, why couldn't you get in
24:38:46touch with him on the night of the
24:38:48Lingian meeting?" Such Chanqing was
24:38:50taken aback at first, then replied, "I
24:38:52had to take care of Minjo at night, so I
24:38:55was probably asleep and didn't notice."
24:38:57Liang Kai nodded and continued, "Old Hua
24:39:00even came specifically to find you
24:39:02looking for me?" Such Chaning asked in
24:39:04surprise. Liang Kai gestured for him to
24:39:07sit down and then continued. Old Hua
24:39:09said, "You are honest and upright, but
24:39:11your biggest problem now is that you
24:39:13lack a Daist partner." After sitting
24:39:15down, Su Chongqing chuckled and said,
24:39:17"When it comes to Dao's partners, I
24:39:20believe in letting things take their
24:39:21course. When the time is right, they
24:39:23will come naturally. This is something
24:39:25that cannot be rushed." Lienkai
24:39:27complained, "You're not in a hurry, but
24:39:29I've already arranged several for you. I
24:39:31hadn't originally planned to attend the
24:39:33Link meet and greet that night.
24:39:35It's<unk> mainly because it's boring and
24:39:36a waste of time. I might as well stay
24:39:38home and sleep." But old master Hua
24:39:41wanted Su Chongqing to go. So he
24:39:42arranged for him to make the contact. As
24:39:45a result, they couldn't get in touch
24:39:46with him no matter what they tried. So
24:39:48they had to go over to explain and then
24:39:50Hao forced them to go on a blind date.
24:39:52It wasn't enough for me to do my own
24:39:54divination. I also had to do Sue
24:39:56Chongqing as well. That night was
24:39:58incredibly busy. I didn't get home until
24:40:00after 5:00 a.m. And then this guy woke
24:40:02me up at 6:30 a.m. Su Chongqing<unk>s
24:40:05lips curled up several times, but he
24:40:07forcibly suppressed it and couldn't help
24:40:09but ask, "Why doesn't Elder Hua contact
24:40:11me?" Liengai said helplessly. "Is it
24:40:14possible that Elder Hua can't contact
24:40:15you either? Very few people in the
24:40:18entire spirit field possess Su
24:40:19Chongqing<unk>s communication talisman.
24:40:21I have one in my hand." Jang Su had one
24:40:24in her hand. Ha not only sought him out,
24:40:26but also Jeang Su. As a result, neither
24:40:29of them could be contacted, and they
24:40:30were even arranged to go on several
24:40:32blind dates. Such Chanin cupped his
24:40:35hands in greeting, "Thank you for your
24:40:36hard work, senior brothers." Li Sanankai
24:40:39took out three communication talismans
24:40:41from his storage bag and pushed them
24:40:42over with a wicked grin. "I've selected
24:40:45three for you, one with a water
24:40:47elemental route, one with a wood
24:40:48elemental root, and one with a fire
24:40:50elemental root." "Huh?" Such Chonqing
24:40:53was immediately dumbfounded. Li Sanankai
24:40:56said gloatingly. Jang Su<unk>s side has
24:40:58even more, a full five. Su Chongqing
24:41:01wore a look of utter despair, opened his
24:41:03mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.
24:41:06He realized that both senior brother Lee
24:41:08and senior brother Jeang were harboring
24:41:09malice. Li Sanankai waved his hand.
24:41:12Anyway, I've given you the communication
24:41:14talisman. Whether you contact me or not
24:41:17is none of my business. All right. Such
24:41:19Chanin took it and temporarily put it
24:41:22into the green gourd. Next, he took out
24:41:24the other party's share. 72 medium-grade
24:41:26spirit stones, 732 lowgrade spirit
24:41:30stones. It was less than last time. Such
24:41:33Chongqing was about to explain, but
24:41:35before he could even finish speaking, he
24:41:37realized that it was less than last
24:41:38time. Liang Kai said with a hint of
24:41:41sympathy, "I don't care much. You don't
24:41:43need to explain. This sum of spirit
24:41:45stones was an unexpected gain. Moreover,
24:41:48it's impossible to make that much money
24:41:49in business forever. As the weather gets
24:41:51colder, fewer and fewer cultivators are
24:41:54heading to the forging peak. Such
24:41:56Choning nodded. I'm glad you understand,
24:41:58senior brother. The two chatted
24:42:00casually. Suddenly, Li Sankai mentioned
24:42:02participating in the formal disciple
24:42:04competition. Such Chan was quite
24:42:06surprised. Senior brother also wants to
24:42:09participate. Li Sanankai took a deep
24:42:11breath and explained, "Ever since I lost
24:42:13to Hoan last time, I've been holding my
24:42:15breath. Since I have nothing else to do,
24:42:18I might as well give it a try." Su
24:42:20Chongqing reminded him. Then you must be
24:42:22careful, senior brother. Wood spirit
24:42:24roots are not suitable for combat in the
24:42:26early stages, especially since we spirit
24:42:28farmers have no experience at all. It's
24:42:31all right if we encounter someone with
24:42:32an earth elemental route since what
24:42:34counters earth. So we still have a
24:42:36fighting chance. If you encounter a
24:42:38metal, fire, or even water elemental
24:42:40root, things could turn out badly. The
24:42:42problem is that the formal disciple
24:42:44selection process involves random
24:42:46matching. You can encounter all kinds of
24:42:48spiritual roots, especially those that
24:42:51are incompatible with each other.
24:42:52Leankai said with a half smile. Of
24:42:55course, I know. Whenever I have free
24:42:57time, I go to Casting Peak to fight
24:42:59one-on-one with people, constantly
24:43:01enriching my combat experience and
24:43:03honing my combat skills. Impressive.
24:43:06Such Chanqing gave a thumbs up. After a
24:43:08while, it became clear that there was
24:43:10nothing left to talk about. He got up to
24:43:12take his leave, intending to return to
24:43:14his own spiritual field. I feel like
24:43:16I'll be able to master the basics of the
24:43:18nine flames mystic art in a few more
24:43:20days. This is a highle fire attribute
24:43:22cultivation technique and its benefits
24:43:24to oneself must be significant. But not
24:43:27long after leaving Lansai's spiritual
24:43:29field, the gourd transmitted images. A
24:43:32communication talisman was flashing with
24:43:34spiritual light and vibrating slightly.
24:43:37Hello, Junior Brother Su. I am senior
24:43:39brother Jeang. Did senior brother Jeang
24:43:41need something from me? Of course,
24:43:43something's urgent, so come quick.
24:43:45Please, just tell me what's urgent. Oh,
24:43:47you'll see when you get here. I know.
24:43:49It's about the Lion meeting. Ahem, the
24:43:52person I'm supposed to meet on a blind
24:43:54date is already at my house, just
24:43:56waiting for you to come over. Oh, this
24:43:58person is very familiar with your senior
24:44:00sister, Wu. She's practically one of us.
24:44:02After finishing their conversation, Su
24:44:04Chongqing carefully put away the other
24:44:07party's communication token. He really
24:44:09didn't plan to go if it was just to get
24:44:10the other five communication tokens.
24:44:12Unfortunately, the person he was
24:44:14supposed to meet was already at Jang
24:44:16Su<unk>s house, and he had even met his
24:44:18Dowist partner, Wier. If you don't go,
24:44:21it's like you're disrespecting them.
24:44:22Jang Su is actually doing all right. I'm
24:44:25afraid Wiier will whisper sweet nothings
24:44:27in my ear. So, after thinking it over, I
24:44:29decided to go and take a look.
24:44:31Immediately, Su Chongqing changed
24:44:33direction and flew towards Jeang
24:44:35Su<unk>s spiritual field. The journey
24:44:37was freezing cold and there were hardly
24:44:39any cultivators to be seen. Fortunately,
24:44:42the spiritual plants are quite resilient
24:44:44and are still growing vigorously. Before
24:44:46long, they approached Jang Su<unk>s 10
24:44:48acres of spirit fields. The quantity of
24:44:50common spirit plants, rare spirit
24:44:52plants, and medicinal herbs inside was
24:44:54no less and was even more abundant than
24:44:57before. Outside the fence gate, a
24:44:59horsedrawn carriage was parked. Yes,
24:45:01it's the horsedrawn carriage that exists
24:45:03in the secular world, but there are
24:45:05differences. The carriage was made
24:45:07entirely of sandalwood with cold pattern
24:45:09patterns, and its surface was covered
24:45:11with fine blue runes. On both sides of
24:45:13the carriage shaft, perfectly round and
24:45:16lustrous luminous pearls floated in jade
24:45:18cups, emitting a soft glow. Silk
24:45:21curtains made of ice silk hung from the
24:45:23four corners of the carriage, with
24:45:25flowing clouds embroidered on them in
24:45:27gold thread. The chariot was not drawn
24:45:29by ordinary horses, but by a pair of
24:45:31pure white cloud-patterned beasts.
24:45:34Chapter 178. The Eastern Region Great U
24:45:36Dynasty Sonsin-law like oxmen and
24:45:39horses. Chapter 178 Eastern Region Great
24:45:42U Dynasty Sonsin-law are like cattle and
24:45:45horses. Such Chonqing was surprised and
24:45:47suspicious when he saw this, thinking to
24:45:50himself, "Something feels wrong. The
24:45:52carriage was of the secular style, but
24:45:54this horse is no ordinary horse. This
24:45:57car is no ordinary car. From top to
24:45:59bottom, inside and out, everything about
24:46:02this carriage reveals that its owner
24:46:03either has a powerful background or is
24:46:05incredibly capable. But does someone
24:46:08like this need to go on blind dates?
24:46:10Feeling puzzled, Su Chongqing let the
24:46:12large leafed grass land on the ground
24:46:14and then called out into the room,
24:46:16"Senior brother Jeang." Not long after,
24:46:18the door across the hall creaked open
24:46:20and Jeang Su strode out, "Oh my, my
24:46:23junior brother Su, you finally arrived."
24:46:26When the other person got closer, Su
24:46:28Chongqing pointed to the cloud patterned
24:46:30beast carriage next to him and asked in
24:46:31a low voice, "Senior brother, is this
24:46:34carriage the vehicle my blind date is
24:46:36using?" Jang Su nodded vigorously and
24:46:39said excitedly, "Junior brother, you're
24:46:41going to make it big this time?"
24:46:43"Really?" Su Chongqing suddenly felt a
24:46:46sense of anticipation. Jang Su grabbed
24:46:48his hand and pulled him inside. "Since
24:46:50we're already here, let's<unk> go inside
24:46:52and talk." With a mix of reluctance and
24:46:54encouragement, Su Chongqing slowly
24:46:56approached the door, his heart pounding
24:46:59wildly as if drumming and his breathing
24:47:01becoming rapid. Soon, the two crossed
24:47:03the threshold and entered the house.
24:47:06Before even seeing anyone, one could
24:47:08smell the rich and luxurious fragrance
24:47:10of pianies. Su Chongqing<unk>s gaze
24:47:12swept to the chair opposite him, where a
24:47:14mature woman was leaning languidly. Her
24:47:17eyebrows resembled two faded mountain
24:47:19ranges. They looked all right at first
24:47:21glance, but became blurry upon closer
24:47:23inspection. His eye sockets were
24:47:25slightly sunken, and his pupils looked
24:47:27like glass beads shrouded in mist. The
24:47:30brown spots on both sides of the nose
24:47:32were barely covered by thick makeup
24:47:33powder. She was slightly plump and wore
24:47:36a moon white brocade dress.
24:47:37Well-maintained skin has a subtle, dewy
24:47:40glow, but it can't hide the sagging
24:47:42jawline and the faint wrinkles on the
24:47:43neck. The fine lines around her eyes
24:47:46were cleverly concealed by her carefully
24:47:48drawn almond-shaped eyes. Her hair was
24:47:50divided into two sections, each coiled
24:47:52into a loop and standing upright on
24:47:55either side of her head. A dazzling
24:47:57golden phoenix hairpin was tucked into
24:47:59her hair. Perhaps hearing a noise at the
24:48:01door, she tilted her head, revealing a
24:48:03look that was three parts curiosity,
24:48:06seven parts flirtatious glances, and 90
24:48:08parts worldw weariness. They say that
24:48:10marrying a woman 3 years older than you
24:48:12is like finding a gold brick. And this
24:48:14woman in front of me is at least a gold
24:48:16mine. Such Chanqing felt his mouth go
24:48:19dry and couldn't help but ask. Senior
24:48:21brother, why is mom here? Senior
24:48:23brotherhang said awkwardly. This isn't
24:48:26my mom. This is your blind date mom.
24:48:28Huh? Su Chongqing was stunned. At this
24:48:31moment, the person inside heard the
24:48:33noise outside and came out. There were
24:48:35two women. The person in the lead was
24:48:37Wuir Jang Su<unk>s Daist partner. The
24:48:40other woman looked to be in her 30s or
24:48:4240s. Her ivory white cloud-patterned
24:48:45wide sleeves covered her slightly thin
24:48:47and frail body. Sunken eye sockets. His
24:48:49eyes were quite sharp. The cheekbones
24:48:51are slightly prominent. The corners of
24:48:53the lips habitually turned downwards. It
24:48:56gives people a sarcastic and mean
24:48:58feeling. As soon as he came out, he
24:49:00looked su Chongqing up and down with a
24:49:02scrutinizing gaze. If they see something
24:49:04they don't like, they make no attempt to
24:49:06hide their disdain. Wu Sierra was the
24:49:08first to greet him, saying with a light
24:49:10laugh, "Junior brother Su, it's been a
24:49:12long time." Su Chongqing snapped out of
24:49:14his revery and nodded in response,
24:49:16"Senior sister Wu, it's been a long
24:49:19time." At this moment, Jang Su winked at
24:49:21Wu Sierra across from him, who
24:49:23immediately understood and began to
24:49:25introduce them. These two people beside
24:49:27me are from the Great Yu dynasty in the
24:49:29eastern region. The older one is Lu
24:49:31Fuang and the younger one is her third
24:49:33daughter Xiaoingly. In fact, one can
24:49:36tell a person's status and position from
24:49:38their temperament. Let's not talk about
24:49:40Xiaoingly. Lu Futong exudes the
24:49:42luxurious aura of a wealthy socialite.
24:49:45She was undoubtedly a great beauty in
24:49:47her youth. After she finished speaking,
24:49:49Jang Su followed up with an
24:49:51introduction. My junior brother Su,
24:49:53whose full name is Su Chongqing, has
24:49:55only been with the core of the spirit
24:49:57field for less than 3 years. He is
24:49:59already at the foundation establishment
24:50:01stage and has remarkable talent in
24:50:03planting. Now both sides have finished
24:50:05their introductions. Instead of becoming
24:50:07lively, the atmosphere instantly turned
24:50:09awkward. Xiaoing Lee was extremely
24:50:12discerning and her attitude did not
24:50:13change much just because Su Chongqing
24:50:16was a foundation establishment stage
24:50:18spiritual farmer. After all, their names
24:50:20and identities were already known when
24:50:22they arrived. To be honest, if it
24:50:24weren't for his identity as a foundation
24:50:26establishment stage spiritual farmer,
24:50:28she wouldn't even want to meet him. As
24:50:30for Su Chongqing, after learning that
24:50:32his blind date was not the wealthy
24:50:33socialite Lu Fuang, he felt relieved,
24:50:36but also a little regretful. As for my
24:50:38first impression of Xiaoing Lee, it was
24:50:40extremely bad. Whether she's
24:50:42good-looking or not doesn't really
24:50:43matter. The key is that her eyes are too
24:50:45sharp. They don't seem like they're here
24:50:47for a blind date. They seem more like
24:50:49they're here to select goods. The
24:50:51undisguised look of disgust on his face
24:50:53made Su Chongqing feel even more averse
24:50:56to it. At this moment, the wealthy
24:50:58socialite Lu Fuong spoke first, breaking
24:51:00the awkward silence, and said in a soft
24:51:03and melodious voice, "Now that we have
24:51:05met the person, let's<unk> talk about
24:51:07our respective requirements." Jang Su
24:51:09asked curiously, "Yes, Junior Brother
24:51:12Su, what are your requirements?" Su
24:51:14Chongqing didn't even look at the other
24:51:16person, so he said expressionlessly, "I
24:51:18don't have any requirements." Lu Futong
24:51:20glanced at her third daughter and saw
24:51:22that she didn't say a word. Feeling
24:51:24helpless, she had no choice but to
24:51:26continue. Our requirements are not high.
24:51:29As long as you provide my daughter with
24:51:30spiritual plants and medicinal herbs,
24:51:33you will receive 100 mid-grade spirit
24:51:35stones every month. Su Chongqing
24:51:37frowned, feeling that something was off
24:51:39about those words, and asked, "What do
24:51:41you mean?" At this moment, Xiaoingly
24:51:44finally spoke, saying in a rather shrill
24:51:46voice, "What else could it mean? Of
24:51:48course, it means marrying into the
24:51:50family. Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing
24:51:53couldn't help but look at Jeang Su, who
24:51:55was quite nervous beside him. Senior
24:51:57brother, you didn't tell me this before
24:51:59we came. Before Jean Su could explain,
24:52:02Wu Sierra chuckled dryly. It was my
24:52:04fault. I didn't make it clear at the
24:52:06time. Sister Xiao really wanted to find
24:52:08a son-in-law with a wood elemental root.
24:52:11Lu Fuang nodded slightly and said, "My
24:52:13daughter has awakened a fire spirit
24:52:15route and is now a well-known alchemist
24:52:17in the Earth Fire region. If you become
24:52:19her son-in-law, you will not only
24:52:21receive pills, but also a stable supply
24:52:23of spirit stones, and you will also
24:52:25receive support from our secular world."
24:52:27Su Chongqing wasn't stupid, and he
24:52:29bluntly said, "What kind of
24:52:31son-in-law is this?" In the end, isn't
24:52:34he just a beast of burden? Xiaoing's
24:52:36face darkened. "How dare you? Don't you
24:52:38know your place? How dare you speak to
24:52:40us in such a tone? Su Chongqing laughed
24:52:43angrily. Perhaps you do have a lot of
24:52:45status and background in the mortal
24:52:46world. But don't forget that this is the
24:52:48lofty daunting immortal sect. Upon
24:52:51hearing this, Lu Fuang<unk>s pupils
24:52:53twitched slightly, but she remained
24:52:55seated. Xiaoingly, who was behind her,
24:52:58immediately bristled. Even if I don't
24:53:00use my worldly identity to suppress you.
24:53:02Don't forget that I am still a novice
24:53:04alchemist. Su Chongqing was stunned upon
24:53:07hearing this, then couldn't help but
24:53:09burst out laughing. Such a big mouth. I
24:53:11thought you were a highle alchemist, but
24:53:13it turns out you're just a low-level
24:53:15one. Xiaoing was speechless for a
24:53:17moment. You Yuyu. Such Chanqing cuped
24:53:20his hands and thanks to Jang Su and
24:53:22Wuier. Thank you for your care, senior
24:53:25brothers and sisters. But it is clear
24:53:27that I have no affinity with this
24:53:28low-level alchemist. So, I will take my
24:53:30leave now. He turned and left without
24:53:32giving the two of them a chance to stop
24:53:34him. Watching his resolute departure,
24:53:36Xiaoingly felt her pride had been
24:53:38insulted like never before. She gritted
24:53:41her teeth and said, "You, a mere spirit
24:53:43farmer, dare to offend a novice
24:53:45alchemist?" Su Chongqing waved his hand
24:53:48without turning his head here. Even
24:53:50novice alchemists don't qualify to
24:53:52cooperate. Chapter 179, the third MOO of
24:53:56Spiritual Field. Introduction to the
24:53:58nine flames technique. Thanks to user
24:54:003616210
24:54:03for the expert certification chapter
24:54:05179, the third MOO of spiritual field
24:54:08introduction to the nine flames
24:54:10technique. Thanks to user 36 016210
24:54:14for the certification. Su Chonqing rode
24:54:16the large leaf grass and flew towards
24:54:19his own spiritual field at an extremely
24:54:21fast speed. With a thought, the three
24:54:23communication talismans of female
24:54:25cultivators that he had obtained from Le
24:54:27Sanankai appeared out of thin air in his
24:54:29right palm. He didn't even glance at it,
24:54:31instead channeling the fire elemental
24:54:34power within his dantion, his palms
24:54:36growing warm, and then with a hiss. The
24:54:38three communication symbols burned to
24:54:40ashes under high temperature. With a
24:54:42gust of wind, it vanished without a
24:54:45trace. Meeting someone like Xiaoing Lee
24:54:47on his first blind date made Su Chonqing
24:54:49lose interest in the others. keeping him
24:54:52there will only slow down his farming
24:54:54speed. It would be better to burn them
24:54:55all and end it all. Soon, Su Chongqing
24:54:58returned to the spirit field. There's no
24:55:00difference between here and when I left.
24:55:02The fortress worked tirelessly,
24:55:04patrolling round and round. Wong Wong
24:55:06and the guinea foul stayed huddled in
24:55:08their warm nest, too lazy to come out.
24:55:11Five fire crows circled in the air at
24:55:13times and at other times flew away. As
24:55:15for the spiritual plants in the
24:55:17spiritual field, apart from the
24:55:18harvested moon grass and golden crow
24:55:20vine, the spiritual rice, vegetables,
24:55:23and fourleaf clover are growing well and
24:55:25will be ripe in a few more days. An hour
24:55:27later, as Su Chongqing was accelerating
24:55:30the ripening of the spiritual plants in
24:55:32the first acre of grade 2 spiritual
24:55:34field, the fire crows in the sky
24:55:36suddenly let out a cing warning sound.
24:55:38He quickly closed his eyes and checked
24:55:40the image in the shared view. They
24:55:42noticed Jang Sufi approaching followed
24:55:44by a group of disciples with earth
24:55:46elemental roots. These people seemed to
24:55:48be Wu Guang Man<unk>s team with whom
24:55:50they had collaborated before. Su
24:55:52Chongqing was quite surprised. What's
24:55:54going on? Soon, Jang Su appeared on his
24:55:57mode of transportation and before he
24:55:59even got close, he called out, "Junior
24:56:01Brother Su." Having discovered it in
24:56:03advance, Su Chongqing had already put
24:56:05away the companion lotus. Upon hearing
24:56:08this, he asked the other party, "Senior
24:56:10brother, what brings you here?" Seeing
24:56:12his somewhat cold attitude, Jang
24:56:14Su<unk>s heart skipped a beat, and she
24:56:16quickly said apologetically, "What
24:56:18happened just now was indeed wrong,
24:56:20senior brother?" Su Chongqing waved his
24:56:23hand. "I understand your good
24:56:24intentions, senior brother, but I just
24:56:26don't want it to happen again." Jeang
24:56:29nodded vigorously. Don't worry, there
24:56:31will never be a next time. A year ago, I
24:56:34would never have been so humble. But
24:56:36times have changed. The person in front
24:56:38of me is no longer the clueless newcomer
24:56:40who just joined the core of the spirit
24:56:42field. Now, not only does he have the
24:56:44three spiritual route geniusly Lingai as
24:56:47his backer, he even broke through to the
24:56:49foundation establishment stage, bringing
24:56:51the two to the same realm. Su
24:56:53Chongqing<unk>s attitude softened
24:56:55slightly. Let's<unk>t leave it at that.
24:56:56You and senior sister Wu shouldn't take
24:56:58it to heart. Jean Su<unk>s face darkened
24:57:01and she said with disdain, "Without me,
24:57:03how could Wooir be qualified to be your
24:57:05senior sister?" "Huh?" Su Chongqing was
24:57:08taken aback. Jean Su explained, "I don't
24:57:10know that novice alchemist named Xiaoing
24:57:13at all, and I didn't see this woman at
24:57:15the spirit field meeting. It was Wu
24:57:17Sierra who, upon hearing that she wanted
24:57:19to help you find a blind date, suddenly
24:57:21became your matchmaker." Su Chongqing
24:57:23asked, puzzled, "Why? Why did she do
24:57:26that?" Jeang Su sneered. Her family in
24:57:28the mortal world offended a big shot in
24:57:30the great U dynasty for some reason. It
24:57:32just so happened that the Xiao family
24:57:34wanted to find a son-in-law with a wood
24:57:36spirit route for their third daughter.
24:57:38So, the two sides hit it off and that's
24:57:39how the incident just happened. Such
24:57:42Choning suddenly realized, "I see." Jang
24:57:45Su continued, "I've already dumped
24:57:46Wuier. Someone who takes advantage of
24:57:48our brotherhood doesn't deserve to stay
24:57:50by my side." Su Chongqing was stunned
24:57:53and didn't know what to say. Jang Su
24:57:55revealed a fawning smile. How can the
24:57:57bond between us be so easily destroyed
24:57:59by a mere Daoist partner? Su Chongqing
24:58:02nodded slightly. What you say is true.
24:58:05Senior brother, senior brother Jeang.
24:58:07Senior brother Su, we're here. Has the
24:58:10location been determined? At this
24:58:12moment, Wu Guang Man led his team of
24:58:14territorial spirit routes over. Su
24:58:16Chongqing voiced his doubts. Senior
24:58:18brother, what does this mean? Jeang Su
24:58:21took out a land deed for a second grade
24:58:22spirit field. Although Wucier was behind
24:58:25this, my senior brother is also
24:58:27involved. This acre of second grade
24:58:29spirit land is compensation for my
24:58:31junior brother. Su Choning shook his
24:58:33head and said, "This compensation is too
24:58:36much." Jeang Su said earnestly. Junior
24:58:39brother, with your talent in planting,
24:58:41you will rise to prominence in the core
24:58:43of the spirit fields sooner or later.
24:58:45What you lack now is simply the number
24:58:47of spirit fields. Su Chongqing frowned.
24:58:50You don't need to do this. Jang Su
24:58:52forcefully handed over the land deed.
24:58:54Consider it an investment in you. If you
24:58:56become successful in the future, don't
24:58:58forget your senior brother. Feeling the
24:59:00weight of the land deed in his hand, Su
24:59:03Chongqing gave the other person a deep
24:59:05look. If I remember correctly, for every
24:59:07acre of grade 2 spirit field I add, the
24:59:10other side will lose one acre of grade
24:59:12two spirit field, which would mean all
24:59:14the spirit plants I cultivated before
24:59:16would be wasted. This is a significant
24:59:18loss. Jang Su felt the sense of relief
24:59:20and then smiled and said, "I won't keep
24:59:22you any longer, senior brother. Come
24:59:24over to my house when you have time." He
24:59:26turned and left, speeding away in his
24:59:28vehicle. They were afraid that Su
24:59:30Chongqing would change his mind and
24:59:32return the land deed. Accepting this
24:59:34land deed means that today's events are
24:59:36over. Speaking of which, a cousin named
24:59:38Jeang had interfered with things before.
24:59:41Now, her daist partner Wier has other
24:59:44plans. Every time Jang Su suffered a
24:59:47massive hemorrhage which made her feel
24:59:48incredibly agrieved. Wu Guang Man
24:59:51stepped forward and asked with a smile,
24:59:53"Senior brother Su, where should the
24:59:55third Moo of Spirit Field be located?"
24:59:57Su Chongqing glanced around, then
24:59:59pointed to the side of the second acre
25:00:01of Spirit Field. That's fine. All right,
25:00:04brothers. Let's get to work. Wu Guang
25:00:06Man called out to the team. Bang! Bang!
25:00:08Bang! The ground continued to shake. The
25:00:11weeds shattered on the spot. Each stone
25:00:13turned to dust. Because it's winter now,
25:00:16the soil is frozen solid, so it's taking
25:00:18a while. Moreover, it's impossible to
25:00:20get it done today. It will take at least
25:00:22until tomorrow. It was already
25:00:24afternoon, and it would be dark soon. It
25:00:26was impossible for Wu Guang Man and
25:00:28others to work around the clock. The
25:00:30time came to a morning a few days later.
25:00:33The third acre of grade 2 spiritual land
25:00:35has been secured long ago, but planting
25:00:37has not yet begun. The spiritual plants
25:00:40in the first acre of second grade
25:00:41spiritual field, whether spiritual rice
25:00:44or vegetables, have already matured.
25:00:46However, Su Chongqing did not rush out
25:00:48to harvest, but continued to lie on the
25:00:50wooden bed. He had a wine flask in his
25:00:53left hand, which originally contained a
25:00:55pound of yellow rice wine, but now it
25:00:57was all gone. Because of his tireless
25:00:59study day and night, he finally mastered
25:01:01the fire tribute technique, the nine
25:01:04flames profound art. Nine flames mystic
25:01:06art level one. Effect one can detect the
25:01:09location of open flames within three
25:01:11jang approximately 10 m. Effect two
25:01:15condenses a fireball the size of a fist.
25:01:17Effect three attacks deal an additional
25:01:1910% fire damage. Effect four, fire
25:01:23damage reduction of 15%. Such Chongqing
25:01:26was surprised. the first level, and it's
25:01:28even an incomplete version. Yet, its
25:01:30effect is already close to the third
25:01:32level of the boiled oil with raging fire
25:01:34technique. It truly deserves to be
25:01:36called a highle technique. He spread his
25:01:39right hand out, and the fire elemental
25:01:41power in his dantion was rapidly
25:01:43depleted. At the same time, his palm
25:01:45turned red and hot, and then with a
25:01:47hiss, a burning crimson fireball
25:01:49condensed into shape at a speed visible
25:01:51to the naked eye. It's as big as an
25:01:54adult's fist, and the high temperature
25:01:55it releases instantly dispels the chill
25:01:58in the room. Chapter 180, the first
25:02:00failure and the heaven-deying effect.
25:02:02Chapter 180, first failure,
25:02:04heaven-deying effect. Would you like to
25:02:06consume 15 years of your lifespan to
25:02:09fully repair the nine flames profound
25:02:11technique? Yes. In an instant, Su
25:02:14Chongqing entered a profound state of
25:02:16enlightenment. Countless details and
25:02:18techniques about the nine flames mystic
25:02:20art emerged. With the powerful support
25:02:23of the system, it is being improved
25:02:25little by little. I don't know how much
25:02:26time passed before I snapped out of my
25:02:28state of enlightenment. At the same
25:02:30time, the content on the properties
25:02:32panel changes. Nine flames mystic art
25:02:35level one. Effect one can detect the
25:02:37location of open flames within five
25:02:39jang, approximately 10 m. Effect two,
25:02:42condenses two fist-sized fireballs.
25:02:45Effect three, attacks deal an additional
25:02:4720% fire damage. Effect four, fire
25:02:50damage reduction by 30%. Special effect
25:02:53one, shieldbreaking inferno. At this
25:02:56point, the effect of the first level of
25:02:58the complete version of the nine flames
25:03:00profound technique has surpassed the
25:03:02effect of the third level of the blazing
25:03:04oil cooking technique. It even has an
25:03:06additional special effect capable of
25:03:08breaking shields and defenses. Would you
25:03:10like to sacrifice 3 years of your
25:03:12lifespan to upgrade the nine flames
25:03:14mystic art to level two? Yes, Such
25:03:17Chongqing affirmed. Basically, after
25:03:19each technique is fully repaired, he
25:03:21will check the effect of the second
25:03:23layer. This way, you can have a clear
25:03:25idea of what's going on and still
25:03:27increase the word count. Instantly, the
25:03:29crimson fireball in his hand gradually
25:03:31changed from crimson to orange. As the
25:03:33temperature doubled, it emitted an eerie
25:03:36halo. Call. A firecrow swooped down.
25:03:39Fortunately, Such Chongqing reacted
25:03:41quickly and dodged. It's not that I'm
25:03:43worried about burning this thing to
25:03:44death. Instead, the fireballs would have
25:03:47to be reassembled, which would be a
25:03:48waste of fire elemental power. The fire
25:03:51crow missed its target and immediately
25:03:53turned around, intending to make a
25:03:55second swoop. Those fixed gazes were
25:03:57completely captivated by the orange
25:03:58fireball. Su Chongqing raised an eyebrow
25:04:01upon seeing this. The first layer is
25:04:03crimson flames, which seem to have the
25:04:05effect of breaking shields. The second
25:04:08layer, while increasing in power, seems
25:04:10to have other effects as well. Then he
25:04:12gave the fire crow the order to leave
25:04:14and not cause trouble. The fire crow was
25:04:16initially conflicted when faced with its
25:04:18owner's instructions. The glow emanating
25:04:20from the orange fireball before it
25:04:22aroused in it the urge to devour it.
25:04:24Fortunately, the domestication during
25:04:26this period has been effective. After
25:04:28much hesitation and deliberation, the
25:04:31fire crow reluctantly flew out of the
25:04:33window. The room fell silent again. Su
25:04:36Chongqing closed the window and then
25:04:38focused his attention on the attribute
25:04:40panel. Nine flames mystic art level two
25:04:43effect one can detect the location of
25:04:45open flames within ten jang
25:04:47approximately 33 m. Effect two to
25:04:50confuse the consciousness of living
25:04:52beings within a tenjang radius. Effect
25:04:55three, fireball size haved power
25:04:57doubled. Effect four, attacks deal an
25:05:00additional 30% fire damage. Effect five,
25:05:03fire damage reduction of 40%. Special
25:05:06effect one, shieldbreaking inferno.
25:05:09Special effect two, bewitching elucory
25:05:11fire. Such Chanqing suddenly realized,
25:05:14"No wonder the fire crows were like
25:05:16moths to a flame just now. It turns out
25:05:18that their consciousness was bewitched
25:05:20by the illusionary fire generated by the
25:05:22second layer. As a result, he developed
25:05:25a strong interest in the max level nine
25:05:27flames profound technique. Should I
25:05:29sacrifice 37 years of my lifespan to
25:05:32upgrade the nine flames mystic art to
25:05:34level 9? How much? Such Choning's eyes
25:05:37widened. To date, this is the first
25:05:39cultivation technique that requires 40
25:05:42years to reach its maximum level. If we
25:05:44include the 15 years of repairs, it
25:05:46reaches an astonishing 55 years. This
25:05:49also indicates that a fully upgraded
25:05:51version of the nine flames profound
25:05:53technique will be extremely terrifying.
25:05:55Therefore, without much hesitation, Su
25:05:58Chongqing decisively chose. Yes, he
25:06:01didn't care how many years of life he
25:06:03needed. Anyway, we can make up for it
25:06:05when we harvest the spirit rice later.
25:06:07Instantly, the color of the fireball in
25:06:09his hand changed again. The first layer
25:06:11was red, the second layer was orange,
25:06:13and now it has turned yellow. As the
25:06:15volume shrinks further, the temperature
25:06:17becomes even hotter. An invisible heat
25:06:20wave surged in all directions. Soon, a
25:06:23burning smell filled the room. Su
25:06:25Chongqing scanned the area with his
25:06:27spiritual sense and found that many
25:06:29wooden items had turned to ashes.
25:06:31Suddenly, a system notification
25:06:32appeared. Upgrade failed. Warning,
25:06:35host's current cultivation level is
25:06:37insufficient. Warning, hosts current
25:06:40fire elemental power is insufficient.
25:06:42This was the first time Su Chongqing had
25:06:44encountered such a situation, and he
25:06:46asked in confusion, "What does that
25:06:48mean? Your current cultivation level is
25:06:50insufficient to master the maxle nine
25:06:53flames profound technique. Otherwise,
25:06:55your life would be in danger. Huh? Such
25:06:58Chongqing exclaimed in disbelief. This
25:07:00nine flames mystic technique is truly
25:07:03outrageous. It would take 55 years to
25:07:05repair it to its maximum level, not to
25:07:07mention the current danger to my life.
25:07:09The system quickly provided an
25:07:11explanation. The first three levels of
25:07:13the nine flames profound technique are
25:07:15foundation establishment stage
25:07:17techniques while the last six levels are
25:07:19golden core stage techniques. With this
25:07:21explanation, Su Chongqing understood the
25:07:24nine flames profound technique at its
25:07:26maximum level can only be cultivated by
25:07:28those at the golden core stage. Forcibly
25:07:31improving during the foundation
25:07:32establishment stage could be
25:07:34life-threatening. He is currently in the
25:07:36middle stage of foundation establishment
25:07:38and it is unknown when he will reach the
25:07:40late stage of foundation establishment.
25:07:42Whether it will get stuck at the
25:07:43foundation establishment stage is also
25:07:45unknown. In other words, it will
25:07:47probably take a long time to master the
25:07:49nine flames profound technique at its
25:07:51maximum level. Of course, for a wood
25:07:54elemental spirit that doesn't need to
25:07:56fight, it's not like they can't wait.
25:07:58Besides, there's still a highle spell,
25:08:01fierce sunfinger, that I haven't learned
25:08:03yet. After clearing his mind, Su
25:08:05Chongqing looked at the attribute panel
25:08:07again. Remaining lifespan 669 years.
25:08:11Nine flames mystic art level three.
25:08:13Effect one, can detect the location of
25:08:15open flames within 15 Jang,
25:08:18approximately 33 m. Effect two, to
25:08:21confuse the consciousness of living
25:08:23beings within a 15hang radius. Effect
25:08:26three, can sense evil energy within a
25:08:2815hang radius. Effect four, condenses
25:08:32three compressed fireballs. Effect five,
25:08:34attacks deal an additional 40% fire
25:08:37damage. Effect six, damage to in/ evil
25:08:40targets plus 30%. Effect seven, fire
25:08:44damage reduction by 50%. Effect eight,
25:08:47negative impact reduced by 30%. Special
25:08:50effect one, shieldbreaking inferno.
25:08:52Special effect two, bewitching elucory
25:08:55fire. Special effect three, righteous
25:08:58and evil yongfire. H Such Chanin gasped.
25:09:02The nine flames mystic art with only
25:09:04three levels has as many as eight
25:09:06ordinary effects and three special
25:09:08effects. No wonder there are extremely
25:09:10strict requirements for cultivation
25:09:12level and fire elemental power. Judging
25:09:15from the current situation, an ordinary
25:09:17fire spirit route can only be upgraded
25:09:19to level two at most in the
25:09:20midfoundation establishment stage. I
25:09:23estimate that I was able to advance to
25:09:25the third level by virtue of my mutated
25:09:27lightning and fire spiritual route. Su
25:09:30Chongqing looked at the fireball in his
25:09:31right palm, which was only the size of a
25:09:34baby's fist, and his breathing became
25:09:36rapid. He could clearly feel that the
25:09:38intense heat contained within was very
25:09:40similar to the earth fire at the alchemy
25:09:42pavilion. It seems that with the help of
25:09:44the three levels of the nine flames
25:09:46profound technique, I can not only
25:09:48refine pills, but also craft weapons.
25:09:50Next time I go to the market for
25:09:52freelance cultivators, I need to buy a
25:09:54special alchemy furnace and books on
25:09:56weapon crafting. Such Chanqing then
25:09:58withdrew his fire elemental power back
25:10:00into his dantion, and the fireball in
25:10:02his hand quickly extinguished and
25:10:04dissipated. He looked up and scanned the
25:10:06entire wooden house. Many bowls and
25:10:08chopsticks were reduced to ashes. The
25:10:10walls and floor were covered with
25:10:12charred marks from burning. Seeing this
25:10:14scene, Su Chongqing had the idea of
25:10:16moving to a different house for the
25:10:18first time. In the future, if you want
25:10:20to refine pills or forge weapons, you
25:10:22can't live in a wooden house. It might
25:10:24collapse one day because the temperature
25:10:26is too high. It won't kill anyone, but
25:10:28it's still embarrassing. Chapter 1812.
25:10:31Vegetables mutate. Rare ice soul pearl.
25:10:34Chapter 1812. Vegetables mutate. Rare
25:10:37ice soul pearl outside. A cold wind
25:10:39howls. The closer it gets to the new
25:10:41year, the lower the temperature becomes.
25:10:43Extreme cold. Attempting to freeze
25:10:46everything. Wong Wong and the guinea
25:10:47foul are too afraid to go out and stay
25:10:50in their warm nests everyday. Only a
25:10:52fortress, a puppet that is impervious to
25:10:54both heat and cold, can remain
25:10:56completely unaffected. Holding a sickle,
25:10:59Sue Chongqing walked step by step to the
25:11:01ridge of the first acre of second grade
25:11:03spiritual field. In the heart of the
25:11:05spiritual fields, many spiritual farmers
25:11:08do not plant spiritual rice during the
25:11:10winter. The colder the weather, the
25:11:11greater the impact on ling rice and the
25:11:14lower the yield. Unless you like Su
25:11:16Chongqing raise your cultivation
25:11:18technique to the maximum level, you
25:11:20won't have the confidence and assurance
25:11:22to do so. Immediately, he used his
25:11:24spiritual sense to scan the spiritual
25:11:26field in front of him. In an instant,
25:11:28information about the spiritual plants
25:11:30inside appeared in his mind. Premium
25:11:33spirit rice, mature, no loss, abundant
25:11:36spiritual energy. Today's best yield for
25:11:40thousand gene. As expected, Linga
25:11:42remained the most stable one. Regardless
25:11:44of the season or the number of
25:11:46plantings, as long as the nutrients are
25:11:48sufficient, the yield will remain at the
25:11:50limit of one moo of second grade
25:11:52spiritual land. In fact, ever since he
25:11:54added the second acre of grade 2 spirit
25:11:56field, his attention has been focused on
25:11:58rare spirit plants. He doesn't pay much
25:12:01attention to them usually, or even very
25:12:03little. For example, when I only had 1
25:12:05acre of spiritual field, I would try the
25:12:07green finger technique every day. But
25:12:10nowadays, it only comes when I remember
25:12:12it. Fortunately, there's still one more
25:12:14chance during the final harvest stage.
25:12:16With the current concentration of wood
25:12:18elemental energy in my chi sea, it's
25:12:20enough to sustain me until the very end.
25:12:23Immediately, Su Chongqing began pointing
25:12:25and directing as he harvested the crops.
25:12:28Harvesting one Supreme Spirit rice plant
25:12:30increases lifespan by 6 days. Harvesting
25:12:33one premium sweet potato increases its
25:12:35lifespan by 5 days. Harvesting one
25:12:38premium cabbage increases its lifespan
25:12:40by 5 days. A probability of one in a
25:12:43thousand is indeed quite low. From
25:12:46beginning to end, Lingo never succeeded
25:12:48even once. As for the vegetables, they
25:12:50made two consecutive dings. Sweet potato
25:12:53once, one serving of cabbage. However,
25:12:56the changes in these two vegetables
25:12:58surprised Sue Choning greatly. As the
25:13:00sweet potato gradually grew larger, a
25:13:03layer of reddish brown veins appeared on
25:13:05its surface. He possessed a fire
25:13:07elemental root and a mutated lightning
25:13:09fire elemental root at that. So he
25:13:11immediately sensed the intense heat
25:13:13emanating from the sweet potato.
25:13:15Suddenly the system displayed
25:13:16information. Fire spirit potato effect
25:13:19one. After consumption the power of fire
25:13:22spells is temporarily increased by 15%.
25:13:25Negative effect one. Due to different
25:13:27properties consuming this product may
25:13:29trigger heartburning syndrome. Then Su
25:13:32Choning's gaze fell on another mutated
25:13:34cabbage. Normally cabbages are green
25:13:36after they mature in autumn and winter,
25:13:39but this one now has leaves as clear as
25:13:41ice with a pale blue light flowing
25:13:43between its veins. In addition to its
25:13:45larger size, it also exudes a chilling
25:13:48aura. The surrounding black soil was
25:13:50covered with a fine layer of frost.
25:13:52Chinese cabbage effect one grants
25:13:54immunity to low-level isotribute damage
25:13:57for a period of time after consumption.
25:13:59Effect two, reduces the fire toxicity
25:14:02generated in the body by fire tribute
25:14:04techniques. Su Chongqing was stunned
25:14:06after reading the information provided
25:14:08by the system. Two kinds of vegetables
25:14:10from the same acre of spiritual field
25:14:12mutated in completely opposite
25:14:14directions. One is ice, the other is
25:14:17fire. They are mutually restraining in
25:14:19terms of attributes. Such Chongqing
25:14:21couldn't help but look at the golden
25:14:23crow vine in another acre of second
25:14:25grade spirit field. Could it be due to
25:14:27its influence and that of the
25:14:28moonflower? Moreover, this mutation is
25:14:31completely different from the previous
25:14:32ones. The system will not provide
25:14:34detailed information about the
25:14:36vegetables previously grown. He acted as
25:14:38if he didn't care, but this time they
25:14:40seemed unusually attentive. Such
25:14:43Chonqing squinted his eyes, thinking to
25:14:45himself, "Usually vegetables only differ
25:14:48in size and taste after mutation, but
25:14:50this time they have been given
25:14:52attributes. Is it the effect of applying
25:14:54blue finger dots? Or is it a change
25:14:56brought about by the environment?
25:14:58Thinking about it over and over again is
25:15:00pointless. He simply swung his sickle
25:15:02and harvested the crops directly.
25:15:04Harvest one mutant fire spirit potato to
25:15:07increase lifespan by 66 days. Harvest
25:15:10one mutant cold cabbage and its lifespan
25:15:13will increase by 99 days. At this point,
25:15:16all the spiritual plants in the entire
25:15:18acre of grade 2 spiritual field have
25:15:20been harvested. an additional 13,532
25:15:24days of lifespan. Final remaining
25:15:26lifespan 706 years. Not only did the
25:15:29lifespan I lost return, it also exceeded
25:15:32700 years again. A spirit farmer in the
25:15:35foundation establishment stage had a
25:15:36lifespan of over 700 years. Who would
25:15:39believe that if I told them? As for the
25:15:41reserves of top grade spiritual rice,
25:15:43they are even more astonishing.
25:15:45Currently the premium lingi rice is
25:15:4710,250
25:15:49gene approximately 5,165
25:15:52caddies. It has successfully exceeded
25:15:5410,000 gene. Although 1,000 gene, 500
25:15:58caddies had to be handed over. They also
25:16:00need to give lee ling by 800 gene.
25:16:03Hubuay was divided into 150 caddies and
25:16:06sell 500 gene at the market where you
25:16:08practice martial arts. It takes 300 gene
25:16:11to brew the finest Lingi wine. That
25:16:13leaves 7,500 caddies of premium
25:16:16spiritual rice. After everything was
25:16:18packed away, Su Chongqing returned to
25:16:20the wooden house. He has made his
25:16:22decision. From now until the lunar new
25:16:24year, we will not grow any ordinary
25:16:27vegetables or ordinary spirit rice. We
25:16:29must focus all our energy and attention
25:16:31on the mutated spirit rice. First, the
25:16:34mutated mother rice was transplanted and
25:16:36then an experiment was conducted. Let's
25:16:39see how many mutated spirit rice plants
25:16:41can be grown in 1 acre of grade 2 spirit
25:16:43field and how many kilograms of mutated
25:16:45spirit rice can be produced. It should
25:16:47be noted that the mutated spirit rice
25:16:50contains more spiritual energy than the
25:16:51top grade spirit rice. In other words,
25:16:54it is more efficient in improving one's
25:16:56cultivation level. Of course, there is
25:16:58another reason that is also the main
25:17:00reason. After nearly a year of hard
25:17:02work, Such Chan wanted to take a break
25:17:04and relax. Previously, he had been
25:17:07taking care of rare spiritual plants day
25:17:09and night and studying various
25:17:11cultivation techniques and spells. This
25:17:13action while increasing the spiritual
25:17:15energy in the cheese sea to some extent.
25:17:18However, it also leaves one feeling
25:17:20physically and mentally exhausted. Once
25:17:22inside, instead of returning to bed to
25:17:24lie down, he took out the cold cabbage
25:17:26and placed it on the table in front of
25:17:28him. Although it has left the black soil
25:17:30and separated from its roots. However,
25:17:33the chill it emitted did not decrease.
25:17:35Soon the entire wooden table was covered
25:17:37with a thin layer of frost. Such
25:17:39Chonqing observed, "If I remember
25:17:41correctly, there is a certain
25:17:43probability that a blue white ice soul
25:17:45pearl will be formed in the heart of
25:17:47this cold cabbage. This situation is
25:17:50similar to when lotus seeds fell out
25:17:52during the cultivation of the earth
25:17:53lotus. It has a certain probability of
25:17:55occurring, but the probability is very
25:17:58low. However, the eye soul pearl is not
25:18:00cheap at all. Even a small one can
25:18:02gradually transform a water spirit route
25:18:04into an ice spirit route. It can even be
25:18:07forged into spiritual weapons and
25:18:09magical artifacts which are extremely
25:18:11powerful. At the current market price,
25:18:13an ice soul bead the size of a grain of
25:18:15rice sells for 200 mid-grade spirit
25:18:17stones. A single ice soul bead the size
25:18:20of a broad bean can sell for 3 to 400
25:18:23mid-grade spirit stones. As for larger
25:18:25ones, they would need at least 500
25:18:27mid-grade spirit stones to start. In
25:18:29short, the larger the size, the better
25:18:31the effect and the higher the price. But
25:18:34this time, Such Chongqing did not use a
25:18:36kitchen knife. As a cultivator with a
25:18:38wood elemental root at the midfoundation
25:18:40establishment stage, I can't afford to
25:18:42be so humiliated. He directly activated
25:18:45the max level azure lotus creation
25:18:47technique, and a rich wood elemental
25:18:49energy surged out from his dantion. In
25:18:52an instant, the cabbage was peeled away
25:18:54layer by layer at a speed visible to the
25:18:56naked eye, like peeling an onion. Before
25:18:59long, a blue and white bead the size of
25:19:01a fingernail emitted a dreamy blue
25:19:03light. Chapter 182. Restoring the cold
25:19:06weather cabbage. Changes in the popular
25:19:08tree. Chapter 182. Repairing the cold
25:19:11weather cabbage. Changes in the popular
25:19:13tree. There really are some. Such
25:19:15Chonqing said in surprise. The
25:19:17probability of this thing appearing is
25:19:19as low as the probability of a spiritual
25:19:21plant mutating. Unexpectedly, a single
25:19:24cabbage yielded an ice soul pearl. That
25:19:26means at least 300 mid-grade spirit
25:19:28stones will be earned. Looking at the
25:19:30ice soul pearl, which was originally
25:19:32wrapped in the cabbage heart, but is now
25:19:34exposed, Su Chonqing pondered. It was
25:19:36only harvested not long ago. Should I
25:19:39put it back in time? Thinking of this,
25:19:41he reached out and grabbed the ice soul
25:19:43pearl from the heart of the vegetable.
25:19:45The moment they touched, a chilling
25:19:46coldness seeped through their flesh and
25:19:48into their very bones. But it was
25:19:50quickly put into the green gourd and
25:19:52temporarily stored away. Immediately
25:19:54afterwards, Su Chongqing controlled the
25:19:56wood elemental power, causing the open
25:19:59cabbage to close up layer by layer. Once
25:20:01back to normal, he immediately held it
25:20:03in both hands and rushed towards the
25:20:05spirit field outside the door. Locate
25:20:07the location where the previously
25:20:09mutated cabbage occurred as quickly as
25:20:11possible. Because we hadn't yet
25:20:13practiced slash and burn agriculture,
25:20:15vegetable roots and such were still in
25:20:17the black soil. Su Chongqing raised an
25:20:19eyebrow. If my idea is correct, wouldn't
25:20:22I be able to keep obtaining cold cabbage
25:20:24or even ice soul pearl? He immediately
25:20:27pressed the cold cabbage back down and
25:20:29then summoned his companion green lotus.
25:20:31He infused it with rich wood elemental
25:20:33energy while doing their best to repair
25:20:35the cut. As time passed, the already
25:20:37chilly cabbages coupled with the
25:20:39extremely low winter temperatures
25:20:41quickly froze. At first glance, it looks
25:20:44like an ice sculpture of a cabbage. Of
25:20:46course, because of the loss of the ice
25:20:48soul pearl, the chill has been greatly
25:20:50reduced. So far, this method is
25:20:52effective. At least the harvested area
25:20:54has begun to heal. It's just unknown
25:20:56whether it can continue to be cultivated
25:20:58or even regenerate the ice soul pearl.
25:21:01But seeing a mutated cabbage in the
25:21:02Baron spiritual field felt a bit too
25:21:05obvious, or rather too blatant. Anyone
25:21:07who comes by can be spotted at a glance.
25:21:10Although it's winter now and there are
25:21:11very few people coming, it's not like
25:21:13there aren't any. who Buguay comes at
25:21:15least once a month to settle his monthly
25:21:17earnings. Xiao Ziua came even more
25:21:19frequently, occasionally using the minor
25:21:22cloud rain technique. Occasionally, Zang
25:21:24Su Liang Kai or other acquaintances
25:21:27would suddenly appear over for some
25:21:28reason. In short, placing it so openly
25:21:31in the spirit field would easily attract
25:21:33attention. After thinking it over, Su
25:21:35Choning looked toward the Rocky Mountain
25:21:37on the other side. There was only one
25:21:39mutated mother rise plant left inside,
25:21:41and the space was relatively spacious.
25:21:44Why not take this opportunity to
25:21:45transplant it there and check on the
25:21:47condition of the mutant mother rice?
25:21:49Thinking of this, he took out the green
25:21:50wood water dividing hoe and dug around
25:21:52the cold cabbage little by little,
25:21:54trying to avoid the roots as much as
25:21:56possible. During this time, the wood
25:21:58elemental power never stopped. The azure
25:22:01lotus domain continued to envelop the
25:22:03only mutated spiritual plant in the
25:22:06entire acre of spiritual field. Once it
25:22:08was dug out, Su Chongqing immediately
25:22:10picked it up and ran towards the Rocky
25:22:12Mountain without stopping. This action
25:22:14left Wong Wong and the guinea fowl
25:22:16completely bewildered, having no idea
25:22:18what their owner was trying to do. Wong
25:22:21Wong wanted to follow and take a look,
25:22:22but as soon as he poked his head out, a
25:22:24gust of cold wind blew by. It was so
25:22:27cold that it immediately shrank back and
25:22:29its curiosity vanished instantly. Soon,
25:22:32Su Chongqing, carrying the healed
25:22:34Hanbikai, arrived at the entrance inside
25:22:36the stone mountain. Not much has changed
25:22:38here except there's now a lot of dog
25:22:40poop, but that's normal. Ever since the
25:22:43fortress appeared, Wong Wong has been
25:22:45afraid to poop in front of his house and
25:22:47always runs far away. Looking at the
25:22:49frozen dog poop, Su Chongqing not only
25:22:51didn't find it disgusting, but even
25:22:53smiled slightly. With all this filth
25:22:55around, no one would think there's an
25:22:57entrance here. Anyone who sees this will
25:22:59immediately run away. Then Su Chongqing
25:23:02moved the stone blocking the entrance
25:23:03and carried the huge cabbage inside.
25:23:06Because I had something in my hands, I
25:23:08didn't check the concealment array this
25:23:09time. Before long, he entered the
25:23:11deepest part. In the black soil, a lone
25:23:14mutated rice plant stands alone. It has
25:23:16nine ears of rice, and the rice seeds on
25:23:19each ear are exceptionally plump. Such
25:23:22Chongqing scanned the rice patties with
25:23:23his spiritual sense to check their
25:23:25condition. Fushing mutant mother rice.
25:23:28Many children, many blessings. Riky
25:23:30cultivation domain tu jang special
25:23:33effect doubles the yield of spirit rice
25:23:35within the area. Every time he saw this
25:23:38special effect, he felt an itch to try
25:23:39it. If used to cultivate spirit rice,
25:23:42whether it is the best variety or a
25:23:44mutation, the yield will increase
25:23:46significantly. Unfortunately, he was not
25:23:48kind to anyone and was trapped in this
25:23:50dark and gloomy rocky mountain for at
25:23:52least a year, wasting all his talent.
25:23:55But this time, Su Chongqing was truly
25:23:57determined to have the transplant done.
25:23:59The tendrils and leaves left by the
25:24:01hundred golden crow vines have already
25:24:03surrounded the second acre of spiritual
25:24:05field. Next, all we need to do is look
25:24:07for things like disguise formations, and
25:24:10that should be enough. After all, the
25:24:12concealment array to mask the smell
25:24:14already exists. The only problem right
25:24:16now is that it's visible from the sky.
25:24:18Su Chongqing whispered to the mutated
25:24:20mother rice. Wait a little longer. It
25:24:23will be in the next few days. Then he
25:24:25chose a corner, keeping as far away from
25:24:27the mutated mother rice as possible and
25:24:30replanted the cold cabbage in the black
25:24:31soil. Next came watering and a
25:24:34continuous output of wood elemental
25:24:35power. They only breathed a sigh of
25:24:37relief after things stabilized. Then Su
25:24:40Chongqing walked up to the mutated
25:24:42mother rice and cut off the nine heavy
25:24:44years of rice. Actually, he has no
25:24:46shortage of seeds nowadays, regardless
25:24:48of whether it was cut from a mutant
25:24:50mother rice. It was harvested from a
25:24:52mutant rice variety. Even the previous
25:24:54golden rice gathering spirit rice which
25:24:57had 100 grains is now preserved in the
25:24:59azure gourd. They can be cultivated at
25:25:02any time and then sewn on a large scale.
25:25:04Then Such Chanqing turned and walked
25:25:06out. When he passed the concealment
25:25:08array, he dug it out and checked it.
25:25:10Although there was still some spiritual
25:25:12energy remaining in the spirit stone and
25:25:14the transplantation of the mutated
25:25:16mother rice was only a few days away for
25:25:19safety reasons, it was still necessary
25:25:21to replace it with a brand new low-grade
25:25:23spirit stone. As for what gets replaced,
25:25:25it will naturally be used for
25:25:27absorption. Even a small amount is still
25:25:29a tributeless spiritual energy. To throw
25:25:31it away or destroy it would be too
25:25:34extravagant and wasteful. Soon, Su
25:25:36Chonqing came out of the cave. Since the
25:25:38firecrow had not given any warning, he
25:25:40didn't need to worry about anyone
25:25:42nearby. He then blocked the entrance
25:25:44with stones again. Everything was
25:25:45settled and I strolled leisurely home.
25:25:48Master, it happened to pass by the
25:25:50patrolling fortress and stopped to greet
25:25:52it. Su Chongqing chuckled and said, "The
25:25:55spirit plants have just been harvested.
25:25:57You don't need to patrol the spirit
25:25:58fields for the next few days. When the
25:26:00water runs out, fill it with water. When
25:26:02the firewood runs out, chop firewood.
25:26:05Rest the rest of the time." Upon hearing
25:26:07this, Fortress's emerald-like eyes
25:26:09flickered a few times. Yes, master. It
25:26:12was very obedient. It immediately
25:26:14abandoned its patrol and turned to walk
25:26:16towards the popppler tree behind the
25:26:18wooden house. Perhaps because they share
25:26:20the same attributes, they naturally
25:26:21become close. Staying under or near the
25:26:24popppler trees, Fortress instinctively
25:26:26felt comfortable. Such Chongqing glanced
25:26:29at the scene and was immediately
25:26:30surprised to find something. After a
25:26:32while, the popppler tree grew even
25:26:34taller. Chapter 1. 83 mirror flower
25:26:37water moon formation thousand gene of
25:26:39spirit rice wine chapter 1 83 mirror
25:26:43flower water moon formation thousand
25:26:45gene of spirit rice wine driven by
25:26:47curiosity such choning quickly arrived
25:26:50near the popular tree normally in winter
25:26:53in order to adapt to the cold climate
25:26:55all the leaves on its branches should
25:26:56fall off actually they had all fallen
25:26:59off by autumn but now some bright green
25:27:01shoots have actually sprouted as Su
25:27:03Chongqing released his spiritual sense
25:27:06He simultaneously activated the Azure
25:27:08lotus creation technique, stimulating
25:27:10the wood elemental power in his Danteon
25:27:12and sensing it with extreme care. Sure
25:27:15enough, they discovered that the
25:27:16interior of this popppler tree contained
25:27:18a rather rich wood spirit energy. It
25:27:20should be noted that even the finest
25:27:22quality rice cannot reach this
25:27:24concentration, especially in winter. It
25:27:27actually achieved it. Before this, the
25:27:29popppler was just an ordinary tree,
25:27:31especially after being repeatedly
25:27:33abused. Its surface is covered with
25:27:35scars, but now it has not only grown
25:27:37taller, but even the previous scars have
25:27:40disappeared. It should be noted that Su
25:27:42Chongqing currently possesses two types
25:27:44of spiritual roots, both of which are
25:27:46mutated. Wood and fire. The wood is a
25:27:48green wood spirit root and its effect is
25:27:51natural and compatible. Changes in all
25:27:53the surrounding plants can be detected
25:27:55quickly. Since no one noticed it, it
25:27:57means that the changes in the popppler
25:27:59trees are not a problem. However, after
25:28:01losing all its leaves in winter, it
25:28:03sprouts new buds in early spring, which
25:28:06clearly violates the laws of nature. So
25:28:08far, Su Chongqing has only sensed a rich
25:28:11wood elemental energy within the
25:28:13popppler tree. Apart from that, there
25:28:15was absolutely nothing wrong with it.
25:28:17Faced with this situation, he couldn't
25:28:19help but shift his gaze to the fortress.
25:28:21This 2 m tall puppet seems to be the
25:28:23first to notice the changes in the
25:28:25popppler tree. No, it's also possible
25:28:27that the changes in the popular trees
25:28:29occurred after it arrived here. To be
25:28:31honest, Su Chonqing didn't know much
25:28:33about puppetry. Much of the knowledge
25:28:35comes from books, which is rather
25:28:37one-sided and not very detailed. All
25:28:39that is known is that behind the art of
25:28:41puppetry lies a new profession that has
25:28:43existed for just over a thousand years.
25:28:45His name is puppet master. They created
25:28:48puppets with different attributes based
25:28:50on their own different spiritual roots.
25:28:52Some highly skilled puppeteers create
25:28:54puppets that are said to be
25:28:55indistinguishable from real cultivators.
25:28:58It can cultivate, fight, and even
25:29:00explore secret realms in place of its
25:29:02master, accomplishing all sorts of
25:29:04things. If the changes in the popular
25:29:06tree are indeed related to this puppet,
25:29:08this indicates that it possesses some
25:29:10kind of special talent or effect.
25:29:12Unfortunately, Su Choning knew nothing
25:29:15about this. It seemed that he could only
25:29:16find an opportunity to ask Chuch Chio or
25:29:19buy some books about puppetry. Speaking
25:29:21of which, it seems that puppeteers have
25:29:23quite a connection with wood spirit
25:29:24roots. It is said that the cultivator
25:29:26who invented the profession of puppeteer
25:29:28was a wood spirit root. After observing
25:29:31for a while and seeing that there was no
25:29:33problem, Su Chongqing turned around and
25:29:35went back into the house. However, he
25:29:37didn't just sit idle, he took out a
25:29:39communication talisman. Who? Hanxen.
25:29:42Since we're going to install an array,
25:29:44we definitely need to find a trustworthy
25:29:46array master. The only array master Su
25:29:49Chongqing knew was this one. Although
25:29:51the other party likes to drink and is
25:29:53always drunk, making him seem
25:29:54unreliable, his expertise, talent, and
25:29:57strength and formations are beyond
25:29:59doubt. Hiccup who? It's me, Lo Han. Su
25:30:02Chonqing, are you free lately? I'm fine.
25:30:04What's wrong? I'd like you to help me
25:30:06set up a formation. Upon hearing that Su
25:30:08Chongqing wanted to create another
25:30:10array, Han Xin was quite surprised. If I
25:30:13remember correctly, it's only been a
25:30:15year since I helped you with the
25:30:16concealment array, right? Su Chongqing
25:30:19said, seriously, as you know, I have
25:30:21more spirit fields here, and one
25:30:23concealment array is not enough. I need
25:30:25to make at least another one. Upon
25:30:27hearing this, Han Xian thought about it
25:30:29carefully and realized it was indeed
25:30:31true. Therefore, she asked curiously.
25:30:34So, this time, do you need the same
25:30:36concealment array, or should we choose a
25:30:38different one? Su Chongqing voiced his
25:30:40thoughts. Are there any formations that
25:30:42can enhance privacy? Privacy? After
25:30:45taking a big gulp of liquor, Hanexin
25:30:47pondered, "There are some, but they're
25:30:49generally quite expensive. Are you sure
25:30:51you want to get them?" Such Chonqing
25:30:53immediately became interested. Tell me
25:30:55what they are first. Han Xen introduced
25:30:58them one by one. The low-level ones are
25:31:00bamboo shadow formation, shifting
25:31:02position formation, and rising mist
25:31:04formation. While the highle ones are
25:31:07mirror flower formation, and water moon
25:31:09formation. These two combined are close
25:31:11to the earth level mirror flower water
25:31:13moon formation. Such chonqing didn't
25:31:16know what to choose. How about you
25:31:17recommend one for me? Han x and hummed a
25:31:20few times. If it were me, I would
25:31:22definitely choose the advanced mirror
25:31:24flower formation and water moon
25:31:26formation. If I had money, I would
25:31:28arrange the mirror flower water moon
25:31:30formation which is close to the earth
25:31:31level. From the perspective of a
25:31:33formation master, one should not skimp
25:31:35on formations if possible. If it's even
25:31:37slightly off, it's easy for others to
25:31:39see through it and even sabotage it. The
25:31:42higher the level of the formation, the
25:31:44more complex it is, and the higher the
25:31:46level of defense it requires. Su
25:31:48Chongqing asked thoughtfully, "What is
25:31:50the ability of this mirror flower water
25:31:52moon formation? How many spirit stones
25:31:55are needed? If the price is acceptable,
25:31:57simply choose the best formation. This
25:31:59way, you can solve the problem once and
25:32:01for all and not have to worry about so
25:32:03many issues." Han Xen explained in
25:32:05detail. Mirror flower water moon array
25:32:08absorbs sunlight during the day to
25:32:10create a flower in the mirror effect. At
25:32:12night, it absorbs moonlight, creating a
25:32:15moonlike effect in the water. Whether
25:32:17it's day or night, outsiders can only
25:32:19see things that appear to exist but are
25:32:21actually unreal. Upon hearing this
25:32:23explanation, Su Chonqing immediately
25:32:26understood, "I see the standalone flower
25:32:29in the mirror formation can only operate
25:32:31during the day. The standalone moon in
25:32:34the water formation can only operate at
25:32:36night. Only when they are combined to
25:32:38form a nearear level mirror flower water
25:32:40moon formation can it operate
25:32:42continuously throughout the day. Han
25:32:44Xian chuckled and said, "If I had to
25:32:47describe this formation in one sentence,
25:32:49it would be sound in the air, color in
25:32:51the mirror, moon in the water, and image
25:32:54in the mirror. Its variations are
25:32:55endless." Su Chongqing asked cautiously.
25:32:58It must be very expensive, right? Han
25:33:01Xin stated the price directly.
25:33:04Considering that we've known each other
25:33:05for a long time, it would cost 400
25:33:07mid-grade spirit stones to sell to
25:33:09others. But for you, it only costs 350
25:33:12mid-grade spirit stones. H Such Chan
25:33:16gasped. Admittedly, I do have that many
25:33:18mid-grade spirit stones. Even the
25:33:20contents of the Azure Gourd could be
25:33:22sold for the price of the entire
25:33:23formation with a profit to be made. The
25:33:26problem is, what if pulling out so many
25:33:28mid-grade spirit stones at once arouses
25:33:30the other party's curiosity? Although
25:33:32the two had worked together once and had
25:33:34known each other for several years, they
25:33:36could be considered acquaintances. In
25:33:38any case, it's always better to be
25:33:40careful. Seeing that the other party
25:33:41remained silent, Han Xen pondered and
25:33:44said, "It is indeed a bit expensive. If
25:33:46it really doesn't work out, you can pay
25:33:48in installments or use spirit rice wine
25:33:51to offset the debt." Su Chongqing<unk>s
25:33:53eyes lit up. I can only offer 150
25:33:56mid-grade spirit stones. If the rest can
25:33:58be paid for with spirit rice wine, I
25:34:00would be very grateful. Hanxen was the
25:34:03most excited person. She subconsciously
25:34:05licked her lips and then asked, "How
25:34:07many kilograms of top grade spirit rice
25:34:09wine can I get from you with 200
25:34:11mid-grade spirit stones?" Su Chonqing
25:34:14carefully estimated for a moment, then
25:34:16replied, "1,000 gene." Chapter 184.
25:34:19Changes in Fong Shuer, Installation of
25:34:22the Formation. Chapter 184 changes in
25:34:24Fong Shuer. After setting up the
25:34:26formation, a thousand caddies of top
25:34:28grade spirit rice wine could not be
25:34:30taken out all at once. Because the
25:34:32monthly production of premium spirit
25:34:34rice wine is not high, sometimes as much
25:34:36as 200 gene and sometimes just over 100
25:34:39gene, it can only be produced in
25:34:41installments. Such Chongqing and Han Xen
25:34:44discussed it and agreed that they would
25:34:46give each person at least 50 gene of
25:34:48medicine per month and try to pay off
25:34:50the debt within 2 years. In this way, he
25:34:52wouldn't have to hand over more
25:34:54mid-grade spirit stones, thus revealing
25:34:56his wealth, nor would he arouse Han
25:34:58Xen's curiosity. It was a win-win
25:35:00situation. Next, we just waited for them
25:35:02to arrive. About half an hour later, a
25:35:05gag sound was heard outside. Such
25:35:07Chonqing immediately recognized the
25:35:09warning from Hoya and closed his eyes to
25:35:11carefully examined the shared view. On
25:35:13the horizon, a swaying black that was
25:35:16rapidly approaching. It started out as a
25:35:18very small one, but it kept getting
25:35:20bigger and bigger. As they got closer,
25:35:22they discovered it was Han Xen's
25:35:24dark-colored flying shuttle. Perhaps the
25:35:26allure of the premium spirit rice wine
25:35:28was too great, which is why it arrived
25:35:30so quickly this time. Then, under Su
25:35:32Chongqing<unk>s personal witness, the
25:35:34black shuttle along with Han Xen on it
25:35:37fell diagonally downwards. The moment I
25:35:40opened my eyes, there was a loud bang
25:35:42outside and the ground shook slightly.
25:35:45Such Chanqing was already used to this
25:35:47and even took it for granted. When the
25:35:49two first met, Hanxen would restrain
25:35:51herself and wouldn't get too drunk. But
25:35:53as their relationship grew closer and
25:35:55they spent more time together, she
25:35:57simply stopped pretending. He wouldn't
25:35:59care as long as it didn't delay the
25:36:01installation of the formation. Then they
25:36:03went outside from the wooden house. The
25:36:05location of the crash was well chosen
25:36:07with the lander being more than 10
25:36:08meters away from both the sacred field
25:36:11and the wooden house. Han Xian climbed
25:36:13out of the shuttle, muttering, "Why does
25:36:15this thing feel so unresponsive? Should
25:36:17I get a new mode of transportation?" Su
25:36:20Chongqing curled his lip. Even if you
25:36:22replace it with 10,000, it will still
25:36:24break down. With this kind of landing
25:36:26method, no mode of transportation could
25:36:28withstand it. To be honest, he was quite
25:36:30surprised that the black shuttle could
25:36:32last so long. Han Xen rolled her eyes.
25:36:35Don't forget, kid, I'm your creditor
25:36:37now. Uh Su Chan was speechless. Hanexian
25:36:41glanced at it and froze. She knew that
25:36:43once the spirit farmer broke through to
25:36:45the foundation establishment stage, he
25:36:47could gain an additional acre of grade 2
25:36:50spirit field. But now there are 3 acres
25:36:52of spiritual fields in front of them. In
25:36:55other words, the other party has
25:36:56recently acquired another acre.
25:36:58Seemingly noticing her shock and
25:37:00confusion, Su Chongqing explained, "This
25:37:03third acre of second grade spirit field
25:37:05was a gift from a senior brother." Han
25:37:07Exine breathed a sigh of relief upon
25:37:09hearing this. You scared me half to
25:37:11death. I thought you had reached the
25:37:12midfoundation establishment stage so
25:37:15quickly. Su Chonqing blinked, his
25:37:17expression slightly strange. At this
25:37:19moment, Han Xen jumped off the black
25:37:22flying shuttle, her gaze sweeping over
25:37:24the three acres of spirit fields as she
25:37:26asked, "Have you decided which acre to
25:37:28install it on?" Such Chongqing had
25:37:30already thought it through and
25:37:31immediately said, "The second mo. The
25:37:34first moo of spiritual field must be
25:37:36planted with spiritual rice. This is the
25:37:38foundation and cannot be lost. The third
25:37:41move of spiritual field has just taken
25:37:43shape and has not yet undergone slash
25:37:45and burn cultivation, fertilization or
25:37:47rainfall. Therefore, the second move of
25:37:49spiritual land will definitely be
25:37:51chosen. But the main reason is that the
25:37:53golden crow vine grows around the second
25:37:55acre of spiritual field. If we choose
25:37:57the first or third acre, we would have
25:37:59to transplant it again, which would be
25:38:01too time-conuming. Han Xen waved her
25:38:04hand. Give it to me. Such Chanqing
25:38:06handed over 150 mid-grade spirit stones.
25:38:09Han Xian said irritably, "I'll give you
25:38:12the spirit stones after the formation is
25:38:14installed." "What I want is top grade
25:38:15spirit rice wine." Su Chan gave an
25:38:18awkward smile and exchanged the
25:38:20mid-grade spirit stones for top grade
25:38:22spirit rice wine. "No more, no less,
25:38:25exactly 50." Han Xian<unk>s eyes lit up
25:38:28and she said excitedly, "Oh, we can
25:38:30drink again." Su Chongqing whispered,
25:38:32"Why don't you finish installing the
25:38:34formation first before you drink it?"
25:38:36Hiccup. Hanxen took the bottle and
25:38:38gulped down a mouthful. After letting
25:38:40out a burp, she slowly said, "You
25:38:43don't<unk>t understand. The better the
25:38:44wine, the faster I can install it."
25:38:46Seeing this, Su Chongqing knew he
25:38:49couldn't continue. They were afraid of
25:38:50offending the other party. Installing
25:38:52the formation is simple in some ways. It
25:38:55can be roughly divided into five steps.
25:38:57surveying the fune, planning the
25:38:59terrain, arranging materials, installing
25:39:02the array points, and finally activating
25:39:04it. Han Xen held a wine flask in her
25:39:06left hand and a compass in her right.
25:39:08Drinking, they surveyed the fune and
25:39:11terrain around the sacred field.
25:39:13Although it wasn't the first time Su
25:39:14Chongqing had seen it, he still followed
25:39:16along out of curiosity. He always felt
25:39:19that the profession of a ray master was
25:39:21very mysterious. blacksmith, alchemist,
25:39:23and talisman master. These three
25:39:25professions can be learned to a great
25:39:27extent once you grasp the underlying
25:39:29principles. However, array masters not
25:39:32only require extremely high
25:39:33comprehension, but also need to
25:39:35constantly adjust their arrays because
25:39:37the situation is different each time
25:39:39they are set up. Time passed second by
25:39:41second. Han Xen paced back and forth
25:39:44around the second moo of spiritual
25:39:46field. Using a compass, we changed
25:39:48angles and positions one after another.
25:39:50Suddenly her gaze fell on a popppler
25:39:52tree not far away. Seeing this, Su
25:39:55Chonqing asked, "What's wrong?" Han Xen
25:39:58looked the tree up and down. This tree
25:40:00is located in the west which belongs to
25:40:02the metal element. There is an inherent
25:40:04metal overcoming wood relationship, so
25:40:06it should be constantly persecuted, but
25:40:08now it is gathering spiritual energy as
25:40:11if it is about to be reborn. Such
25:40:13Chonqing was surprised and quickly
25:40:15asked, "What else did you see?" Han Xian
25:40:17shook her head. I can't tell the
25:40:19specifics, but the fune layout here has
25:40:21changed because of this tree, so it
25:40:23needs to be rearranged. Su Chongqing
25:40:26couldn't help but feel a little
25:40:27regretful. This popular tree has indeed
25:40:30changed and quite significantly.
25:40:32Unfortunately, the reason why this
25:40:33happened is still unclear. Although Han
25:40:36Xian noticed it, she didn't have a wood
25:40:38spirit route and couldn't explain the
25:40:40specific reason. Dig the canal here and
25:40:42bring the water over. Good. This
25:40:44formation requires a lot of spirit
25:40:46stones. Low grade ones will do. No
25:40:49problem. In this place, the terrain is a
25:40:51bit high. They're here. They're here.
25:40:54The two of them worked for two whole
25:40:55hours. I haven't eaten or drunk
25:40:57anything. They were focused intently on
25:41:00installing the formation. After their
25:41:02tireless efforts, they finally got it
25:41:04done. The key point of the formation is
25:41:06located near the water channel. Several
25:41:08low-grade spirit stones were placed
25:41:10around it. In the center, a mid-grade
25:41:12spirit stone was installed. This
25:41:14formation can absorb sunlight during the
25:41:16day and moonlight at night. But its
25:41:18biggest drawback is that it requires a
25:41:20lot of spirit stones. If it were an
25:41:22ordinary spirit farmer, especially with
25:41:24only 1 acre of second grade spirit land,
25:41:27they simply couldn't afford to raise
25:41:29them. But Su Chongqing is different. He
25:41:31now has 3 acres of spiritual land and
25:41:33many other ways to make money.
25:41:35Therefore, there are no problems raising
25:41:37them. The moment they mirror flower
25:41:39water moon formation was activated. Not
25:41:41only the second acre of spiritual field
25:41:44but the surrounding area also changed.
25:41:46First one's sense of direction is easily
25:41:49compromised. Secondly, what you see is a
25:41:51mix of reality and illusion. Of course,
25:41:54Su Chonqing is the right person to
25:41:56manage the formation. He closed his eyes
25:41:58and looked at the shared field of vision
25:42:00of the fire crows only to be surprised
25:42:02to find originally the outer perimeter
25:42:05of the second acre of spirit field was
25:42:07planted with 100 rare spirit plants the
25:42:10golden crow vine but now it looks like
25:42:12the entire spirit field is filled with
25:42:14them. Chapter 185 successful planting
25:42:17successful transplanting. Chapter 185
25:42:20successful planting. Successful seedling
25:42:22transplantation. Visually, the number of
25:42:24golden crow vine has increased as if it
25:42:26has filled an entire acre of spiritual
25:42:28field. In reality, it's still just the
25:42:31outer hundred strands. Nothing has
25:42:33changed. Whether it's a mirage or the
25:42:35moon's reflection in water, both
25:42:37essentially create or reflect false
25:42:39scenes to deceive the eye. Han Xen asked
25:42:42with a smile, "How is it?" Su Chongqing
25:42:44nodded slightly. These few hundred
25:42:46mid-grade spirit stones were well spent.
25:42:49In this way, he wouldn't have to worry
25:42:51about the mutated spirit rice being
25:42:52discovered. Although the golden crow
25:42:54vine planted throughout the spirit field
25:42:56is also quite expensive. At least there
25:42:58is a legitimate reason for it. No matter
25:43:00who asks, you can simply reply with
25:43:03advanced alchemist. Hanexian stretched
25:43:05out her right hand and shook it
25:43:06vigorously. If it's worth it, then we
25:43:09should give you spirit stones. Without
25:43:11wasting words, Su Chongqing immediately
25:43:14transferred the 150 mid-grade spirit
25:43:16stones from the emerald gourd back to
25:43:18the other party. After Hanxen put it
25:43:20away, she said, "Free reinforcement and
25:43:23repair within one year." Su Chongqing
25:43:25chuckled. "They even handle after sales
25:43:27service. That's impressive." Hanxen took
25:43:30a big gulp of the finest spirit rice
25:43:32wine. Then added, "Only if I have time."
25:43:35Uh Su Chan Xiing was speechless. All
25:43:38right, I have to go back and have a
25:43:40drink. You can have fun by yourself. Han
25:43:42Xian walked straight towards the dark
25:43:44shuttle that had crashed on the other
25:43:45side. Before leaving, she took one last
25:43:48look at the popppler tree. To be honest,
25:43:50I'm very curious, but I can't figure out
25:43:52why. I feel that this popppler tree is
25:43:54no longer just a popppler tree. Then the
25:43:57dark shuttle rose from the ground and
25:43:59carried Han Xen away in a leisurely
25:44:01motion. Su Chongqing watched the other
25:44:04person disappear, then muttered to
25:44:05himself, "Now with this mirror flower
25:44:08water moon array, which is close to a
25:44:10level one array, I can transplant the
25:44:12mutated mother rice. But not now. I
25:44:15hadn't even had lunch, and now it's
25:44:17already evening. I'm fine. As a
25:44:19cultivator, not eating or drinking for a
25:44:22period of time won't have much of an
25:44:23impact. I'm just worried that Wong Wong
25:44:25and Pearl Chicken won't be able to
25:44:27handle it." Therefore, he immediately
25:44:29went to the kitchen inside the house to
25:44:31start preparing dinner. Time flies and
25:44:34it's late at night. The cold wind howled
25:44:36and whistled, sending chills down one's
25:44:38spine. This winter is colder and
25:44:40chillier than last year. Such Chanqing
25:44:42used the fire crow's shared vision to
25:44:44survey the area around the spirit field.
25:44:46After confirming that no one was around,
25:44:49he walked out of the house and ran
25:44:50towards the stone mountain against the
25:44:52cold wind. Who would have thought that
25:44:54during the day they said to wait a bit?
25:44:56As a result, they secretly came over
25:44:58that night to get the transplant done.
25:45:00There's always this feeling that he
25:45:01never tells the truth. They skillfully
25:45:03opened the entrance, crawled inside, and
25:45:06saw the mother rice. Today, only two
25:45:08spiritual plants grow in the black soil
25:45:10inside the stone mountain. One of them
25:45:12is a mutated coldresistant cabbage. One
25:45:15of the plants is a mutant mother rice
25:45:17that has mutated twice. Currently, it
25:45:19seems that Chinese cabbage is more
25:45:21suited to this dark environment. The
25:45:23chill emanating from the area was
25:45:25stronger than during the day. Su
25:45:27Chonqing didn't care. The protagonist
25:45:29this time was the mutated mother rice he
25:45:31had been longing for. Immediately he
25:45:33activated the max level azure lotus
25:45:36creation technique and with spiritual
25:45:38powers surged out from his dantion,
25:45:40enveloping the entire mutated mother
25:45:42rice plant. Because it has been growing
25:45:44here for nearly 2 years, its fibrous
25:45:46roots are relatively long, which is good
25:45:49because they spread horizontally and are
25:45:51all distributed in the shallow layer of
25:45:52black soil. Duh da da da da da. Under
25:45:55Sue Choning<unk>s control, fibrous roots
25:45:58emerged from the black soil like
25:45:59earthworms. In no time at all, the
25:46:02entire mutated mother rice plant was
25:46:04completely exposed. Overall, both the
25:46:06main body and the rootletits are golden
25:46:09yellow, making it look extremely
25:46:10extraordinary. However, Su Chongqing did
25:46:13not clear away all the black soil,
25:46:16leaving some behind and then turned and
25:46:18left with the mutated mother rice and
25:46:20sunflowers. While passing by the
25:46:21concealment array, I casually dug it out
25:46:23of the ground. Once outside, they didn't
25:46:26forget to block the entrance with stones
25:46:28again. Although there are no more
25:46:29mutated mother rice varieties, there's
25:46:31still the coldresistant cabbage. Taking
25:46:34advantage of the night when no one was
25:46:36around, he quickly arrived at the second
25:46:38acre of grade 2 spirit field, found the
25:46:40right spot and transplanted the mutated
25:46:42mother rice near the center. Centered on
25:46:45it, it can cover an area of two jang or
25:46:47nearly 7 m. As long as it is spirit
25:46:50rice, regardless of its quality,
25:46:52ordinary, premium, mutated, etc., the
25:46:55yield will double. Although the area is
25:46:58relatively small, the effect is
25:47:00extremely powerful. After the transplant
25:47:02was completed, Su Chongqing released the
25:47:04companion green lotus and unleashed the
25:47:06green lotus domain. Knowing that the
25:47:08transplanting would take place in just a
25:47:10few days, he started cultivating the
25:47:12mutant rice seedlings in advance. Now
25:47:15there's no need to wait. Seedlings can
25:47:17be planted directly after being
25:47:18transplanted from the green gourd.
25:47:20Moreover, any rice seedlings within a tu
25:47:23jang radius of the mutated mother rice
25:47:25are actually cultivated from the mutated
25:47:27rice seeds on the first batch of rice
25:47:29ears. Tu Jang away. The rice seedlings
25:47:31changed to mutated rice. Why? Because
25:47:34there aren't many seeds left on the
25:47:36first batch of rice ears. With that, Su
25:47:38Chongqing waved his hand and the golden
25:47:40rice seedlings flew out. The moment it
25:47:43landed, it used the wood spirit
25:47:45entanglement technique to control itself
25:47:47and burrow into the black soil. The
25:47:49whole process was very efficient. Before
25:47:51long, the entire second acre of spirit
25:47:54field was filled with mutated golden
25:47:56rice seedlings. Su Chongqing saw this
25:47:58and felt an unprecedented sense of
25:48:00satisfaction. He noticed that mutated
25:48:02golden rice seedlings filled the entire
25:48:05grade 2 spirit field using 1080
25:48:07seedlings. Based on the calculation that
25:48:10100 plants weigh 40 gene, these 1,000
25:48:13plus plants would weigh at least 400
25:48:15gene. If the special effects of the
25:48:16mutated mother rice are added, the yield
25:48:19of mutated rice within a two jang radius
25:48:21will double. Therefore, the final yield
25:48:23of this experimental planting should be
25:48:25around 500 gene. Compared to the 4,000
25:48:28caddies of top grade spiritual rice, it
25:48:30only accounts for 1/8. However, the
25:48:33mutated rice is stronger in terms of
25:48:35spiritual energy concentration. It's not
25:48:37just a little bit stronger, it's twice
25:48:39as strong. Next, as long as we use the
25:48:42Azure Lotus Domain to accelerate
25:48:43ripening every day, barring any
25:48:46unforeseen circumstances, it should
25:48:48mature before the Lunar New Year,
25:48:50allowing us to complete the first
25:48:51harvest. After installing the portable
25:48:53array, concealment array, Such Chongqing
25:48:56returned to the wooden house. Instead of
25:48:58resting, he lay on the bed with his eyes
25:49:00closed, using the shared vision of the
25:49:02fire crows to check the condition of the
25:49:04entire acre of Spirit Field. Sure
25:49:07enough, when night fell, the water moon
25:49:09in the mirror flower water moon
25:49:10formation was activated. What could be
25:49:13seen from the outside was still the
25:49:14golden crow vine covering the spirit
25:49:16field with no mutated mother rice or
25:49:18mutated rice seedlings at all. After
25:49:21confirming that there were no problems,
25:49:22Such Chongqing breathed a sigh of relief
25:49:24and then opened his eyes. It was still
25:49:27early and he had no intention of
25:49:28resting. Instead, he took out a pound of
25:49:31top grade yellow rice wine and began to
25:49:33drink it while studying the advanced
25:49:35spell, Fierce Sunfinger. He used all
25:49:38wood attribute techniques and spells to
25:49:40enhance his defense and recovery
25:49:42abilities. Before awakening his metal
25:49:44spiritual route, fire attribute
25:49:46techniques and spells were his only
25:49:48means of inflicting fatal damage on his
25:49:50enemies. Even if Lingong hardly ever
25:49:52fights, he still has to learn. After
25:49:54all, it's better to be safe than sorry.
25:49:57It's better to rely on yourself than on
25:49:59others. After some time, the wood
25:50:01elemental energy in his dantion was
25:50:03almost completely depleted. Such Choning
25:50:05got up, opened the window, and waved to
25:50:08the second acre of spiritual field not
25:50:10far away. The accompanying green lotus
25:50:12flew over in a swirling motion. And that
25:50:15concludes tonight's forced ripening
25:50:16process. Chapter 186, House Upgrade.
25:50:19Chapter 186, House Upgrade. Junior
25:50:22Brother Han, Senior Brother Sue, my
25:50:25house needs renovation. Can you help me?
25:50:27Of course. Let's set a time. Come over
25:50:29now if you're free. In the morning,
25:50:31after finishing his daily tasks, Su
25:50:33Chongqing took out Han Su<unk>s
25:50:35communication talisman. He wanted to
25:50:36renovate the wooden house. Firstly, it
25:50:39increases fire resistance. Secondly, the
25:50:42space is a bit small now. As a
25:50:43foundation establishment stage spiritual
25:50:45farmer, there's no need for him to live
25:50:47in such a cramped room. During previous
25:50:50celebrations, friends would even have to
25:50:52sit on the bed when they came over. Now
25:50:54that we have some time, let Han Su come
25:50:56over and take care of it. Time flew by
25:50:58and half an hour later, Han Su used the
25:51:00Earth's energy to jog all the way here.
25:51:03Its speed is almost the same as that of
25:51:05ordinary means of transportation. Su
25:51:07Chongqing was brewing the orchid mist
25:51:09tea he had obtained from the market of
25:51:11scattered cultivators. When he saw the
25:51:13other party arrive, he immediately
25:51:15offered him a cup with great enthusiasm.
25:51:17Hanu took a small sip and his eyes lit
25:51:19up immediately. Excellent tea. Su
25:51:22Chongqing asked with a smile. Junior
25:51:24brother Han, you with earth elemental
25:51:26roots are extremely knowledgeable about
25:51:28house renovations. Do you have any
25:51:30suggestions? Upon hearing this, Han Su
25:51:33immediately put down his teacup and then
25:51:35looked at the wooden house next to him.
25:51:36I had thought before that this house of
25:51:38yours, senior brother, is a bit too
25:51:40cramped and the interior space is too
25:51:42small. With your current strength and
25:51:44status, there's absolutely no need for
25:51:47you to humble yourself. Su Chongqing
25:51:49nodded slightly. Continue. Han Su
25:51:51pondered. Nowadays, most of the houses
25:51:53in Linton are being converted from
25:51:55wooden houses to earthn houses or stone
25:51:58houses. Firstly, the room is big enough.
25:52:01Secondly, it's more convenient to
25:52:03expand. Such Chonqing couldn't help but
25:52:05think of his senior brother Lee who
25:52:07lived in a stone house. It is sturdy
25:52:09enough and also has a lot of space.
25:52:11Seeing that he was still thinking, Han
25:52:13Su continued, "Senior brother, I suggest
25:52:16you change to a stone house." Oh, Su
25:52:18Chongqing looked at him questioningly.
25:52:20Han Su explained, "Although converting a
25:52:22wooden house into an earthen house
25:52:24further improves stability, defense, and
25:52:26space, a stone house is not only
25:52:28stronger in these aspects, but also has
25:52:31a longer service life. You might as well
25:52:33go all the way from the start." Such
25:52:35Chongqing chuckled and said, "All right,
25:52:37let's do it your way. How many days will
25:52:39it take?" Hansu pondered, "It would take
25:52:41me at least 3 days by myself, but with a
25:52:44team, it could be done in about a day."
25:52:46The word team reminded Su Chongqin of Wu
25:52:49Guang Man and others from before. But if
25:52:52he asked them for help, then Han Su
25:52:54would be out of the picture. So he waved
25:52:56his hand and said, "I only trust you. 3
25:52:58days it is." These words deeply moved
25:53:01Han Su, who grinned and said, "Don't
25:53:03worry, senior brother. I will never lie.
25:53:06You continue drinking your tea. I'll
25:53:08pack up the things in the house first."
25:53:10Su Chongqing turned and went into the
25:53:12wooden house, putting everything into
25:53:14the green gourd. After everything was
25:53:16settled, Han Su on the other side had
25:53:18just finished drinking a cup of Yulan
25:53:20Mist tea. Although the tea came from the
25:53:22market town of independent cultivators,
25:53:24he had never actually tasted it before.
25:53:27Leaving aside the taste and texture, the
25:53:29concentration of spiritual energy is
25:53:31indeed quite high. Su Chongqing stepped
25:53:34out of the wooden house and activated
25:53:35the woods spirit entanglement technique
25:53:38with just a wave of his hand at the
25:53:40wooden house in front of him. Everything
25:53:41from the roof, rafters, beams, pillars,
25:53:44and walls to the doors and windows was
25:53:46dismantled piece by piece. From a wooden
25:53:49house, it was soon turned into a pile of
25:53:51building timber. Seeing this, Han Su put
25:53:54down his teacup again and began to
25:53:56survey the terrain. If he has even a
25:53:58tiny bit of knowledge about formations,
25:54:00you can also incorporate fune
25:54:02principles. The houses built in this way
25:54:04are not only more upscale, but also more
25:54:06comfortable to live in. Next, the two
25:54:09began to discuss the area, number of
25:54:11floors, and size of the basement. On the
25:54:13ground floor, the original one floor has
25:54:15been increased to two floors. The first
25:54:18floor includes a kitchen, living room,
25:54:20and basement. The second floor has a
25:54:22study, a bedroom, and a balcony. Such
25:54:25Chonqing also specifically instructed
25:54:27that a spot must be reserved for
25:54:29climbing onto the roof. In fact, he
25:54:31especially liked to lie on the rooftop
25:54:33and look at the starry sky in the
25:54:34summer. Combined with the sounds of
25:54:36insects chirping, frogs croaking,
25:54:38fireflies, and the night breeze, the
25:54:41atmosphere is truly immersive. Bang,
25:54:44bang, bang. As the ground continued to
25:54:46shake, the foundation left by the wooden
25:54:48house was gradually destroyed. Since
25:54:50we're going to rebuild, it's best not to
25:54:52continue using the old stuff. This is
25:54:54also to prevent accidents from happening
25:54:56in the future. At this moment, Han Su
25:54:58pointed to the rocky mountain in the
25:55:00distance and asked, "Senior brother,
25:55:02building houses requires a lot of stone.
25:55:05There shouldn't be any owner over there,
25:55:06right?" Su Chongqing paused for a
25:55:08moment, then shook his head and said,
25:55:10"No, it's just an ordinary rocky
25:55:13mountain." "That's good," Han Su
25:55:15breathed a sigh of relief. Su Chongqing
25:55:17advised, "If you're going to move the
25:55:19stone, it's<unk> best to start from the
25:55:21left." Han Su asked in confusion, "Isn't
25:55:24it unowned?" Su Chongqing chuckled. The
25:55:26right side is covered with my dog Wong
25:55:28Wong<unk>s poop. Upon hearing this, Han
25:55:31Su immediately showed a look of disgust.
25:55:33It's not that I think it's dirty. After
25:55:35all, disciples with earth elemental
25:55:37roots have to mine every day, and they
25:55:39are always dirty. Just thinking about
25:55:41dog poop makes me feel physically
25:55:43uncomfortable. It's just disgusting. In
25:55:46fact, the reason why Su Chongqing had
25:55:48Han Su start from the left was that the
25:55:50dog excrement was insignificant. The
25:55:52most important reason was to prevent the
25:55:54other side from discovering the secret
25:55:56of the stone mountain. The left side had
25:55:58been explored before. It was all stone
25:56:00and there were no gaps. The only
25:56:02entrance to the entire Rocky Mountain is
25:56:04the one on the right that is blocked.
25:56:06The construction of the stone house.
25:56:08Because Han Soo was a single person, his
25:56:11efficiency was relatively slow. He
25:56:13completed everything independently from
25:56:15excavating the foundation trench, laying
25:56:17the subbase, building the walls to
25:56:19capping and finishing the edges. That's
25:56:22why even someone with an earth spirit
25:56:23route needs two or 3 days to complete
25:56:26the process. Considering that Su
25:56:28Chongqing needs to rest at night, he
25:56:30can't possibly squeeze in with Wong Wong
25:56:32and the Guinea Fowl if there's no
25:56:34shelter from the wind. Therefore, Han Su
25:56:36chose to complete the foundation, outer
25:56:38walls, and roof on the first day. More
25:56:41details will be covered later. 3 days
25:56:43passed in the blink of an eye. Thanks to
25:56:45Han Su<unk>s efforts, the two-story
25:56:47stone house was finally completed. As
25:56:49for the underground area, there was
25:56:51initially one floor, and later another
25:56:53floor was added. Today, this stone house
25:56:55has two floors, both above and below
25:56:57grout. Such Chonqing took out the
25:56:59payment and handed it over, saying,
25:57:01"You've really worked hard these past
25:57:03few days, Junior Brother. 30 caddies of
25:57:06top grade ling rice, five caddies of top
25:57:08grade Lingi wine, and the paper cranes
25:57:10that were promised before. After taking
25:57:12over, Han Su took out 30 low-grade
25:57:15spirit stones and said, "It's no trouble
25:57:17at all. Helping you is helping myself."
25:57:19Although he did not return to the lay
25:57:21lines during those three days. While
25:57:23feeling exhausted, they also lost a sum
25:57:25of spirit stones. They didn't complain
25:57:27at all. On the contrary, they were
25:57:29diligent and hardworking. After all,
25:57:32without Su Chongqing<unk>s help, Han Su
25:57:34would have lost the top grade spiritual
25:57:35rice and the top grade spiritual rice
25:57:37wine. They wouldn't encounter the
25:57:39opportunity of the 38th layer of the
25:57:41earth's veins, let alone reached the chi
25:57:43refining perfection realm so quickly.
25:57:46The person in front of me may seem like
25:57:47a business partner, but in reality, he
25:57:50is no different from my benefactor.
25:57:52Afterwards, Han Su left his mark on the
25:57:54flying paper crane, tried to control it,
25:57:56and it rose up little by little. Once he
25:57:58had a good grasp of the situation, he
25:58:00left quickly, exhausted. Su Chongqing
25:58:03watched the other person leave, then
25:58:05pondered. For the past 3 days, he has
25:58:07been pacing back and forth here, but he
25:58:10hasn't figured out the problem with the
25:58:11second acre of spirit field. This time,
25:58:14sending Han Su to renovate the house was
25:58:16also a way of testing the waters. I want
25:58:18to see if the other party with their
25:58:20latestageqi refining cultivation level
25:58:22and earth spiritual route can detect
25:58:24anything. The result was obvious even at
25:58:27such a close distance and after living
25:58:29together for three consecutive days. Han
25:58:31Su was completely unaware. Chapter 187.
25:58:35Yu Kaiing refineses pills. Chapter 187.
25:58:39Yuk Kaiing refines pills. Now with the
25:58:41mirror flower water moon array
25:58:43protecting the spiritual field. There is
25:58:45no need to worry about outsiders spying
25:58:47on it. Their dwellings were upgraded
25:58:49from wooden houses to stone houses which
25:58:51were more spacious and better defended.
25:58:54From now on, whether it's alchemy,
25:58:55weapon crafting, or cultivating
25:58:57techniques and spells, it will be much
25:58:59safer. Such Chongqing's room has changed
25:59:02from the first floor of the wooden house
25:59:03to the second floor of the stone house.
25:59:06It not only has a study and a balcony,
25:59:08but also a place to climb up to the
25:59:09roof. Overall, it perfectly meets my
25:59:12needs. The only drawback is that the
25:59:14interior decoration is a bit lacking. It
25:59:16can be said that there are almost no
25:59:18decorations. Even the tables, chairs,
25:59:20benches, and beds are all old things
25:59:23from before. Su Chonqing looked at the
25:59:25wooden bed in front of him and pondered,
25:59:27"When I go to the market for scattered
25:59:28cultivators, I'll buy some furniture and
25:59:31decorations on the way back." Then he
25:59:33went to the study and used the remaining
25:59:35wood to build a seven-tiered bookshelf.
25:59:37List all the books you've read before,
25:59:39such as the record of a 100 tales of
25:59:41spirit fields. In this way, not only is
25:59:44the space occupied by clutter reduced,
25:59:46the key is that you can also pretend to
25:59:48be very cultured. Afterwards, Su
25:59:50Chongqing sat on the wooden chair and
25:59:52continued to study the blazing
25:59:54sunfinger. Perhaps it was the blessing
25:59:56of the fire spirit route coupled with
25:59:58learning the nine flames profound
26:00:00technique. In a few more days, I should
26:00:02be able to get the basics of this fire
26:00:04tribute attack spell. I feel that I am
26:00:06now learning the techniques more
26:00:07efficiently than before. After an
26:00:09unknown amount of time, the emerald
26:00:11green gourd suddenly gave a response. Su
26:00:14Chongqing<unk>s heart stirred and a
26:00:15communication talisman appeared in his
26:00:17hand. Hello, it's me, Senior Sister Yu.
26:00:21I'm preparing to refine the Inyong
26:00:23intertwining pill. Have you gotten your
26:00:24hands on the medicinal herbs yet? I've
26:00:27already bought them. 100 Red Sun Jins
26:00:29Singh and 100 Dark Enshi. Okay, come to
26:00:32Dant to meet me when you have time. The
26:00:34two ended their communication quickly.
26:00:36Su Chanqin got up and went downstairs,
26:00:39but instead of leaving immediately, he
26:00:41went into the kitchen. Before leaving,
26:00:43prepare food for Wong Wong and the
26:00:44guinea fowl. The main problem is not
26:00:47knowing how long we'll have to stay in
26:00:48the fire zone. Moreover, the round trip
26:00:50itself takes some time. Today's kitchens
26:00:53are at least twice the size of what they
26:00:54used to be. Overall, the space is not
26:00:57only bright, but also exceptionally
26:00:59spacious. That's why I feel happy when
26:01:01I'm cooking. About half an hour later,
26:01:03the food was ready. As for what kind of
26:01:05food it was, of course, it's about what
26:01:07people eat and what dogs and guinea foul
26:01:09eat. Then Su Chongqing rode the large
26:01:12leaf grass and flew towards the fire
26:01:14zone. Along the way, they neither
26:01:16encountered any acquaintances nor
26:01:18experienced any accidents. We arrived at
26:01:21the fire zone without any problems. Sure
26:01:23enough, it was freezing cold outside,
26:01:25but here it's still summer all year
26:01:27round. Of course, the temperature in the
26:01:29subterranean fire zone is lower in
26:01:31winter and not as hot as before.
26:01:33Therefore, a great many cultivators come
26:01:35here to escape the cold. The overall
26:01:38atmosphere was much more lively than
26:01:39usual. In fact, the alchemists in the
26:01:41Earthfire zone rely on autumn and winter
26:01:44to make money. Why is the tasting
26:01:46ceremony held at the beginning of
26:01:47winter? That's the reason. Firstly, it
26:01:50will attract more people to come and
26:01:51have fun here. Secondly, they can raise
26:01:53prices on the spot, making the pills
26:01:55more expensive than usual. I don't know
26:01:57if it's because I've been here so many
26:01:59times that the security guard has become
26:02:01familiar with me. This time, Su
26:02:03Chongqing only needed to register his
26:02:05information to enter the Dan Tower
26:02:07smoothly. Before long, he arrived at the
26:02:09entrance of the seventh underground
26:02:11alchemy room on the 9inth floor. Each
26:02:13alchemist who moves and has a fixed room
26:02:15number unless an accident occurs or for
26:02:18some other reason, otherwise they'll
26:02:20stay in a certain floor or room
26:02:21indefinitely. The stone door to the
26:02:23alchemy room was very heavy. Knocking
26:02:26from the outside barely produced any
26:02:27sound from inside. The only way to
26:02:30communicate is by using a communication
26:02:31symbol. Logically, the signal should be
26:02:34weak underground. But in Dant, it's like
26:02:36there's a signal amplification device
26:02:38installed. There's no problem at all.
26:02:40Therefore, Su Chonqing took out
26:02:42Yuda<unk>s communication talisman again
26:02:44and quickly notified the other party.
26:02:46Before long, the stone door in front of
26:02:48them slowly opened. But this time, there
26:02:51was no billowing hot steam. There wasn't
26:02:53even the slightest sound. It was
26:02:55exceptionally quiet. Such Chongqing
26:02:57stepped into the alchemy room, glancing
26:02:59left and right at the same time. He soon
26:03:01saw Yuka Ching standing next to the
26:03:03Shinming cauldron, preparing for the
26:03:05alchemy process. Hearing the noise, the
26:03:08other person turned around and glanced
26:03:10towards the doorway. Su Chongqing
26:03:12quickly greeted her. Senior sister, you
26:03:14nodded slightly. I'm so sorry to have
26:03:17troubled you to come all this way. Su
26:03:19Chongqing chuckled. It's<unk> nothing.
26:03:21We're<unk> partners. Yukaiing was taken
26:03:23aback for a moment, then sighed. Yes,
26:03:26without wasting any words, Su Chongqing
26:03:29immediately took out the Yang positive
26:03:30medicinal herbs, Chiang Jins Singh and
26:03:33Jin Wu vine and the in negative
26:03:34medicinal herbs, Shining Ling Xiin and
26:03:37Mingway grass, and handed them to the
26:03:39other party with both hands. Yukaiing
26:03:41scanned the area with her spiritual
26:03:43scents and confirmed that they were
26:03:45indeed the four medicinal herbs she
26:03:47needed for alchemy. Her eyes lit up.
26:03:49Great. In fact, at first she only wanted
26:03:52Su Chongqing to cultivate one or two of
26:03:54them. Unexpectedly, this time four types
26:03:57were brought in. Unfortunately, only the
26:03:59moon grass and golden crow vine are of
26:04:01the highest quality. The other varieties
26:04:04such as Chiong Jins Singh and Shinin
26:04:06Lingji are only close to being of the
26:04:08highest quality. Now, with the addition
26:04:10of the auxiliary medicine Tai Chi
26:04:12flower, Yukai can refine the Inyong
26:04:14intertwined pill at any time. If
26:04:17successful, one can use this elixir to
26:04:19break through to the golden core stage.
26:04:21At that time, I should be able to gain
26:04:23the appreciation of a certain immortal
26:04:25and become a core disciple. Seeing that
26:04:27there was nothing more for him to do, Su
26:04:29Chongqing asked somewhat awkwardly.
26:04:31Then, should I leave? Yukai waved her
26:04:34hand. Don't rush. Do you want to receive
26:04:36the reward now or wait until I
26:04:38successfully refine it? Is there a
26:04:40difference? Such Chongqing asked
26:04:42slightly puzzled. Yukaiing explained,
26:04:45"If it's given now, it will only be
26:04:47spirit stones. If it's given after
26:04:49successful refining, it might be a
26:04:51inyong intertwining pill. You should
26:04:54know that these are earth-grade pills,
26:04:55and even a single one can cost thousands
26:04:57of mid-grade spirit stones." Without any
26:05:00hesitation, Su Chongqing decisively
26:05:02said, "Senior sister, you will
26:05:04definitely succeed in refining the pill.
26:05:07It seems like praise, but it actually
26:05:09indicates that the second option is
26:05:10preferred." Yukaiing was not surprised
26:05:12by this and understood. So she said,
26:05:15"Okay, I'll give it to you later.
26:05:17Whether it succeeds or not depends on
26:05:19the outcome. Whether you get more or
26:05:21less depends on the outcome." In fact,
26:05:23she herself wasn't entirely confident.
26:05:25Su Chanqing tentatively asked, "Senior
26:05:28sister, may I stay and watch you refine
26:05:30pills? This is the refining process of a
26:05:33high-grade elixir. I'm sure I can learn
26:05:35a lot of techniques from it." Yukaiing
26:05:37asked in surprise. Why are you with only
26:05:39a wood elemental root watching me refine
26:05:42pills? Su Chongqing grinned. This is a
26:05:45great earth elixir. I'd like to witness
26:05:47it. If it were anyone else, you Kaiing
26:05:49would have refused without hesitation.
26:05:51But the person in front of her was,
26:05:53after all, her business partner. All
26:05:56right, come over on the seventh day.
26:05:58Refining even a single inong intertwined
26:06:00pill takes seven days and seven nights.
26:06:03Throughout the process, the alchemist
26:06:05cannot rest and must remain vigilant at
26:06:07all times. The slightest mistake could
26:06:10render all previous efforts feudal. Su
26:06:12Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up, and he
26:06:14bowed with great excitement, saying,
26:06:16"Thank you, senior sister." Chapter 188.
26:06:19Selling rice in advance. Chapter 188.
26:06:22Selling rice ahead of schedule. When Su
26:06:24Chongqing left the Earthfire zone and
26:06:26returned to the spirit field, it was
26:06:28already evening. Wong Wong and the
26:06:30guinea foul huddled together in their
26:06:32nest to rest. The fortress stood
26:06:34motionless beneath the popppler tree
26:06:36like a withered tree. Such Chonqing was
26:06:39too lazy to cook, so he lay down on the
26:06:41bed and continued to study the blazing
26:06:43sunfinger. He didn't close his eyes and
26:06:45go to sleep until late at night when he
26:06:48gradually became tired. But after
26:06:49resting for only a short time at 6:00,
26:06:52he suddenly opened his eyes. Having
26:06:54farmed for years, their biological clock
26:06:57has been established. Unless I'm
26:06:59particularly tired, I always wake up on
26:07:01time. Minor tasks such as cleaning up
26:07:03manure and pulling weeds are now handled
26:07:05by the fortress. Su Chonqing arrived at
26:07:08the second moo of spiritual field where
26:07:10the mutated mother rice and daughter
26:07:11rice were planted. Checked the situation
26:07:14inside and after seeing that there were
26:07:16no problems, he immediately summoned the
26:07:18companion green lotus and released the
26:07:20green lotus domain. He let them grow
26:07:22unchecked, then turned and walked toward
26:07:24the stone house. Today, after finishing
26:07:27his morning business, he planned to head
26:07:28to the Sonichcho market. Although it was
26:07:30a few days earlier than the time agreed
26:07:32upon by the Sun family, but there was no
26:07:34way around it. I had to go to the
26:07:36alchemy furnace in 6 days, and the two
26:07:38things just happened to coincide.
26:07:40Suddenly, a series of clanging sounds
26:07:43filled the kitchen. It lasted for almost
26:07:45an hour before it stopped. Such Chonqing
26:07:47prepared all the meals that W want and
26:07:49Pearl Chicken needed for breakfast,
26:07:51lunch, and dinner in one go. Of course,
26:07:54it wasn't put into their food bowls, but
26:07:56rather given to the fortress that didn't
26:07:58need to be patrolled so that it could
26:08:00feed them on time. Actually, guinea foul
26:08:02are all right. They have small stomachs
26:08:04and can't eat much. Wong Wong is
26:08:06different. It eats a lot, can eat and
26:08:08sleep well, and poops a lot, too. With
26:08:11everything prepared, Su Chongqing flew
26:08:13towards Forging Peak on the large leafed
26:08:16grass. Because of the freezing weather,
26:08:18there were no pedestrians on the road.
26:08:20The number of visitors to Zhui Peak does
26:08:22decrease in winter. There were hardly
26:08:24any vendors on the market. However, the
26:08:26battle on the arena was still raging on.
26:08:29Su Chonqing observed this and estimated
26:08:31the time in his mind. It seems that the
26:08:33formal disciple competition will begin
26:08:36next spring. No wonder these people are
26:08:38training so hard. Just then, he suddenly
26:08:40saw a familiar figure. Who? Lienai. At
26:08:44this moment, the opponent is standing on
26:08:46the seventh arena fighting against
26:08:48someone with a gold spiritual route.
26:08:50Because of their opposing attributes, Le
26:08:52Sanankai was in a very passive position
26:08:54and had to keep dodging. However, as
26:08:56time went on, he was not quickly
26:08:58defeated by the golden spirit route.
26:09:00While dodging and weaving, they even
26:09:02attempted to counterattack. The
26:09:04determination in his eyes, he looked so
26:09:06serious. Compared to a few months ago,
26:09:09he has undergone a complete
26:09:10transformation. Such Chongqing was quite
26:09:13surprised. It seems that what happened
26:09:14last time was quite a blow to his senior
26:09:16brother Lee. The other party arrived so
26:09:18early they probably don't want to be
26:09:20seen by acquaintances. Therefore, he did
26:09:22not go forward to cheer him on. After
26:09:24watching for a while, he turned around
26:09:26and walked towards Jiu. An hour later,
26:09:29they successfully arrived at Donging
26:09:31City where the market for scattered
26:09:33cultivators was located. As usual, after
26:09:35some disguise, I investigated the
26:09:37proportion of spiritual rice in today's
26:09:39supply. The premium Lingi rice is almost
26:09:42the same as last time except for some
26:09:44adjustments to the top grade. The ratio
26:09:46of inferior to inferior products is 1:6.
26:09:49The ratio of highquality to lowquality
26:09:52products is 1:5. The ratio of top
26:09:54quality items is 1:2. However, the
26:09:57proportion of second grade spirit rice
26:09:59has changed considerably. The ratio of
26:10:01inferior to inferior is 1 minute and 1.7
26:10:04seconds. The ratio of premium to high
26:10:06quality is 1 minute and 1.5 seconds. The
26:10:10ratio of the best quality to the best
26:10:12quality is 1 minute and 1.1 second.
26:10:14Overall, the price of second grade lingi
26:10:17has decreased between inferior and
26:10:19superior quality. It looks like the new
26:10:21year is approaching and many independent
26:10:23cultivators and spiritual farmers are
26:10:25selling off their inventory. Only the
26:10:27premium Lingmi rice is experiencing a
26:10:29price increase as demand rises. This
26:10:32indicates that many people are buying,
26:10:33but the quantity is still relatively
26:10:35small. Such Chongqing saw this and
26:10:38thought to himself, "I'll wait a bit
26:10:39longer. If the ratio can be increased to
26:10:421: one, I'll immediately sell some of my
26:10:44stock." Subsequently, he purchased 1,000
26:10:47gene of highquality spiritual rice from
26:10:50the second grade spiritual fields in one
26:10:52go. Since it's only used to brew
26:10:53high-quality ling rice wine, there's no
26:10:56need to buy too much. 500 caddies would
26:10:58have been enough, but the proportions
26:11:00this time were a bit tempting, so I
26:11:02couldn't resist. It should be no problem
26:11:04to use a 1,000 gene 500 kg weight for
26:11:07half a year. After leaving the Lingi
26:11:09trading point, Su Chongqing took out
26:11:11Sunping<unk>s communication talisman. He
26:11:14plans to first make a deal with the
26:11:15other party and receive a share of the
26:11:17liquor store's revenue from last month.
26:11:19The remaining time was dedicated to
26:11:20procurement. For example, buying some
26:11:23furniture and decorations for the house,
26:11:25especially replace the bed. I've really
26:11:27had enough of sleeping on a wooden plank
26:11:29bed every day. I'm at the foundation
26:11:31establishment stage. There's no need to
26:11:33wrong myself. Then they would look for
26:11:35the recipes and furnace for alchemy and
26:11:37the tools and books needed for weapon
26:11:38crafting. Of course, I'll also check if
26:11:41there's any information about puppetry.
26:11:43To put it bluntly, I'll be very busy
26:11:44today and won't have time to argue with
26:11:46the Sun family. Let's finish the
26:11:48transaction quickly so we can get down
26:11:50to business. Fellow Dowist Kai, I've
26:11:53arrived at the marketplace for rogue
26:11:54cultivators. This is a bit early. Then
26:11:57shall I come a few days later? No, no,
26:12:00no. I'll get up right now. At this time,
26:12:02Sunpong and his partner Le Yana were
26:12:04still lying in bed. Upon receiving Su
26:12:07Chongqing<unk>s notification, he
26:12:08immediately jumped up excitedly. This
26:12:11immediately aroused Lelay Yan's
26:12:13dissatisfaction. And she asked with a
26:12:15resentful look in her eyes. Why do you
26:12:17get so excited every time you receive a
26:12:19notification from this person? Sun Pong
26:12:21chuckled. You don't understand. This is
26:12:23our family's god of wealth. The god of
26:12:26wealth. Leana pouted. You've been
26:12:28secretly keeping a lover on the side,
26:12:30haven't you? Upon hearing this,
26:12:32Sunping<unk>s smile froze, and he said
26:12:34irritably, I can't even handle you, and
26:12:37you dare to keep a mistress on the side.
26:12:39Upon hearing this, Leana gave a shy
26:12:41smile, "You rascal." Sun Pong changed
26:12:44his clothes and left in a hurry. Not
26:12:46long after, he arrived at the place he
26:12:48had agreed to meet with Su Chongqing.
26:12:50The Panchchan Tea House directly
26:12:51opposite Chongqing wine shop. It was
26:12:54still private room number B on the third
26:12:56floor. Su Chongqing greeted him with a
26:12:58light laugh. You've arrived. Sun Pong
26:13:00asked curiously, "Fellow Daist Kai, why
26:13:03did you come ahead of schedule this
26:13:04time?" Su Chongqing replied, "I
26:13:07won't<unk>t be coming before the new
26:13:08year after this transaction." Sun Pong
26:13:11suddenly realized, "I see." Without
26:13:13further ado, Su Chongqing transferred
26:13:15500 gene of top grade spirit rice and
26:13:182,000 gene of highquality spirit rice
26:13:20wine from his small storage bag.
26:13:22Sunpangs eyes widened in surprise. So
26:13:24many," he exclaimed. Su Chongqing waved
26:13:27his hand. Everyone said they wouldn't
26:13:29come before the new year, so we<unk>ll
26:13:30definitely give them more. Seeing this,
26:13:33Sun Pong first took out five mid-grade
26:13:35spirit stones and then said with a
26:13:37nervous expression, "At first, I managed
26:13:39the wine shop, but later more and more
26:13:42people came to buy wine. Many people
26:13:44with status, position, and reputation in
26:13:46Doning City took the initiative to come
26:13:48to the shop. So my father took over the
26:13:50management himself. In fact, the
26:13:52high-quality spirit rice wine obtained
26:13:54from Su Chongqing has become an
26:13:56indispensable social tool for the Sun
26:13:58family in Daing City. Once it's
26:14:00presented, the deal is essentially done.
26:14:03Su Chongqing nodded. After so many
26:14:05collaborations, I trust you. Sun Pong
26:14:08breathed a sigh of relief. Thank you for
26:14:10your trust. He then took out a
26:14:12communication talisman and began
26:14:13contacting his father, Sunr. They soon
26:14:16learned that the 500 gene of highquality
26:14:18Lingi wine had already been sold out. If
26:14:21one gene 500 kg sells for 15 lowgrade
26:14:24spirit stones, then 500 gene would be
26:14:277,500
26:14:29lowgrade spirit stones. Chapter 189
26:14:32purchasing furniture. Chapter 189
26:14:35purchase of furniture, 7,500 lowgrade
26:14:38spirit stones, equivalent to 75
26:14:41mid-grade spirit stones. As previously
26:14:43agreed, in the first 6 months, Su
26:14:46Chongqing accounted for 60% and the Sun
26:14:48family accounted for 40%. 6 months
26:14:51later, regardless of how the business
26:14:53fared, Su Chongqing owned 70% and the
26:14:56Sun family owned 30%. This is the first
26:14:59settlement, so the profit sharing will
26:15:00be done according to the initial
26:15:02agreement. Su Chongqing obtained 45
26:15:05mid-grade spirit stones. If it's 10 or
26:15:07less, Sun Pong can produce them
26:15:09immediately. He had so much at once and
26:15:11his storage bag wasn't enough. He was a
26:15:13bit short of supplies. Seeing this, Su
26:15:16Chongqing said, "Gather them as soon as
26:15:18possible. I have other things to do."
26:15:20Sun Pong nodded hurriedly. Okay, you
26:15:23rest here. I'll be right back. Whether
26:15:25it's 500 gene of top grade spiritual
26:15:28rice or 2,000 gene of premium spiritual
26:15:30rice wine, he didn't take any. Or
26:15:33rather, he didn't dare to take any. You
26:15:35must not touch it until the accounts are
26:15:36fully settled. To speed things up, Sun
26:15:39Pong simply climbed out of the window
26:15:41and jumped down. Amidst the astonished
26:15:43gazes of those around him, he landed and
26:15:45ran straight into Chongqing wine shop.
26:15:48Su Chongqing sipped his tea while
26:15:49patiently waiting. After about the time
26:15:51it takes to drink a cup of tea, Sun Pong
26:15:54ran out of the liquor store. Instead of
26:15:56taking the stairs, he leaped up and
26:15:58nimly jumped into the third floor. Su
26:16:00Chongqing<unk>s lips twitched and he
26:16:02couldn't help but say, "Taking the
26:16:04stairs won't take much longer, will it?"
26:16:07Sun Pong didn't explain, but instead
26:16:09took out a ledger and handed it over. We
26:16:11have kept very detailed records of all
26:16:13transactions. Please check them. Su
26:16:15Chongqing took it and scanned it with
26:16:17his spiritual sense, and all the
26:16:19contents were imprinted in his mind. The
26:16:22person in front of me wasn't lying. The
26:16:24record was indeed very detailed. The
26:16:26time, gender, weight, and number of
26:16:28spirit stones were all remembered
26:16:30clearly. At 3:45 a.m., mail, five
26:16:33caddies of high-quality spirit rice
26:16:35wine, and 75 low-grade spirit stones.
26:16:38The ledgers contained almost all similar
26:16:41entries. Su Chongqing even noticed
26:16:43Sunpang<unk>s name and asked in
26:16:45surprise, "Same name? Same surname?" Sun
26:16:48Pong replied awkwardly. "It was indeed
26:16:50me, huh?" Such Chongqing was stunned.
26:16:53Sun Pong explained, "That's right.
26:16:55Everyone likes the highquality Lingi
26:16:57wine you brew, and many acquaintances
26:16:59want to use their connections and back
26:17:00channels to get in. Every time someone
26:17:02does this, they make a note of it using
26:17:04my name. Su Chongqing understood. He had
26:17:07no complaints about this. It doesn't
26:17:09matter who I sell to as long as I can
26:17:11make money. After confirming that
26:17:13everything was correct, Sun Pong took
26:17:15out 45 mid-grade spirit stones and said
26:17:18sincerely, "Fellow Dowist Kai, please
26:17:20rest assured that our Sun family is
26:17:22completely sincere in this cooperation
26:17:24and will never act recklessly. Given the
26:17:27current popularity of highquality Lingi
26:17:29wine, these 2,000 caddies can be sold
26:17:31out within a month. Barring any
26:17:33unforeseen circumstances, Chongqing wine
26:17:36shop will soon become a pillar industry
26:17:38for the Sun family." Su Chongqing smiled
26:17:40slightly. Okay, the profits from this
26:17:43trip to the Sono market were decent. 500
26:17:46caddies of top grade spirit rice yielded
26:17:48five mid-grade spirit stones. 500
26:17:51caddies of highquality spirit rice wine
26:17:53yielded 45 mid-grade spirit stones. That
26:17:56adds up to exactly 50 mid-grade spirit
26:17:58stones. The actual cost is less than
26:18:01five mid-grade spirit stones. The
26:18:03transaction was completed and the two
26:18:05then parted ways. Such Chongqing began
26:18:08looking for places to sell furniture and
26:18:09decorations. Thankfully, this is not a
26:18:12typical city. Otherwise, you simply
26:18:14can't buy anything related to
26:18:15cultivators. Among all the independent
26:18:18cultivators in the market, there are
26:18:19three that are the most popular. They
26:18:21are respectively called Craftsman's
26:18:23Workshop, Spiritwood Residence, and
26:18:25Treasure Pavilion. Almost all of them
26:18:28are shops selling furniture,
26:18:29decorations, and daily necessities.
26:18:32Moreover, it is only open to
26:18:33cultivators, and business is booming.
26:18:36Such Chonqing slowly entered the Lingmu
26:18:38residence. A female receptionist with an
26:18:41oval face stepped forward. Esteemed sir,
26:18:43what would you like to buy? Su Chonqing
26:18:46said, I want to buy some furniture and
26:18:48decorations, preferably with special
26:18:50effects. The female receptionist smiled
26:18:52warmly. Then you've come to the right
26:18:54place. In the entire market of
26:18:56independent cultivators, we at Lingmu
26:18:58residents dare to claim second place,
26:19:01and no one dares to claim first. Seeing
26:19:04the other party's arrogant tone, Su
26:19:06Chongqing said calmly, "Talking is
26:19:08meaningless. I can judge for myself
26:19:10whether I am powerful or not." The
26:19:12female receptionist, realizing she
26:19:14couldn't be fooled, became even more
26:19:17serious. Please follow me. Our Lingmu
26:19:20residence is most famous for its various
26:19:22wooden furniture. Such Chaning followed
26:19:24behind the other person, observing them
26:19:26carefully. I must say, although Lingu
26:19:29residence talks big, it really does have
26:19:31the ability. These wooden furniture
26:19:33pieces are not made of ordinary wood,
26:19:35but of fine wood that is over 10 years
26:19:37old. The female receptionist pointed to
26:19:39a bed and said, "This is our most
26:19:41popular bed called the Nanu bed, which
26:19:44is very popular among the immortals."
26:19:46Such Chongqing squinted, observing with
26:19:49his eyes while simultaneously probing
26:19:51with his spiritual sense. The Nama bed
26:19:53is about 9 ft long and more than 5 ft
26:19:56wide with an overall simple and elegant
26:19:59design. The bed frame is made primarily
26:20:01of century old Phoebe Jaanon wood with
26:20:03an overall dark brown color and a warm
26:20:06luster. The four corner posts of the bed
26:20:08frame leans slightly outward and the
26:20:10tops are carved with cloud patterns. The
26:20:12edges of the bed are carved with lotus
26:20:14scroll patterns, the lines of which are
26:20:17smooth and graceful, making it quite
26:20:19elegant. The female receptionist
26:20:21explained, "We've installed four notches
26:20:23at the top of the bed frame to inlay
26:20:25spirit stones so you can cultivate even
26:20:27while you sleep." Such Chanqing touched
26:20:29it with his hand. It felt smooth and
26:20:32delicate like jade. He couldn't help but
26:20:34nod. It's really good. The female
26:20:36receptionist wore a smug expression and
26:20:38continued. If you purchase now, we will
26:20:41give you a free soft cotton and linen
26:20:43mattress, a snow white silk mattress, a
26:20:45brocade bed canopy in the same color
26:20:48scheme. These are highquality tassels
26:20:50woven with silver thread. Su Chongqing
26:20:52thought for a moment and asked, "Can I
26:20:54lie down and try it?" The receptionist
26:20:56readily replied, "Of course. Please go
26:20:59ahead." Such Chanqing immediately lay
26:21:02down on it, and sure enough, it was
26:21:04completely different from his own wooden
26:21:05bed. The mattress and quilt were
26:21:07exceptionally soft. Lying on it gives
26:21:09you a feeling of being deeply enveloped.
26:21:12The unique fragrance of Nanmu lingered
26:21:14around my nose. Once I lie down, I don't
26:21:16want to get up, and I even want to sleep
26:21:18in. The female receptionist didn't urge
26:21:20them, but stood aside and watched with a
26:21:23smile. After a while, Su Chongqing
26:21:25slowly got up and asked, "How many
26:21:27spirit stones?" The female receptionist
26:21:29smiled sweetly. "It's on special now.
26:21:32Only 15 low-grade spirit stones." Upon
26:21:35hearing this, Su Choning raised an
26:21:37eyebrow. This price is neither high nor
26:21:39low. But if we take it down directly,
26:21:41it's no different from being a vengeful
26:21:43seed. Therefore, Su Chongqing did not
26:21:45take out any spirit stones, but instead
26:21:48said, "Let's look at something else."
26:21:50The female receptionist was not
26:21:52surprised and continued her enthusiastic
26:21:54introduction. Tables, chairs, cabinets,
26:21:57screens, lamps, and tapestries were all
26:22:00brought out. Overall, all the furniture
26:22:02and decorations at Lingmu residence are
26:22:05quite nice. After circling around and
26:22:07returning to the entrance, the female
26:22:09receptionist asked with a smile, "Has
26:22:11the immortal master made up his mind?"
26:22:14Su Chongqing replied, "I'm satisfied
26:22:16with everything except the price is a
26:22:18little high." The female receptionist
26:22:20blinked. Well, let me ask the manager if
26:22:23we can give you a discount. A sly glint
26:22:25flashed in Su Chongqing<unk>s eyes. Go
26:22:27ask. I'll continue my stroll. Then, in
26:22:30front of the female receptionist, he
26:22:32walked towards the craftsman's workshop
26:22:34across the street. Although the food
26:22:36here is indeed very good. Such Chonqing
26:22:38still understood the principle of
26:22:40comparing prices from different vendors.
26:22:42Chapter 190 Furnace Cauldron. Chapter
26:22:45190 Furnace Cauldron. Craftsman's
26:22:47Workshop sells few items. Whether it's
26:22:49furniture, daily necessities, or
26:22:51decorations, everything must be
26:22:53customized in advance. The price is
26:22:56quite high and ordinary cultivators
26:22:58simply cannot afford it. Of course, the
26:23:00quality is indeed very good and they
26:23:02also offer after service. Wombage sells
26:23:05a wide variety of things including
26:23:07everything from ordinary quality
26:23:09spiritual artifacts. They went down to
26:23:11the cheapest tables, chairs, and
26:23:13benches. In terms of price, some are
26:23:15very high while others are extremely
26:23:17low. Moreover, they all source their
26:23:19goods from independent cultivators,
26:23:21resulting in large quantities but
26:23:23inconsistent quality. The important
26:23:25thing is that once you buy it, you don't
26:23:27care anymore. There's absolutely no
26:23:29after service. After comparing prices at
26:23:32three different places, Su Chonqing
26:23:34eventually returned to Lingmu Residence.
26:23:36It was the same receptionist with the
26:23:38oval face. Master, you're back. Such
26:23:41Chonqing asked, "Have you reached an
26:23:43agreement?" The female receptionist
26:23:45smiled and said, "The shopkeeper said
26:23:47that if you buy a lot of things, you can
26:23:49enjoy a 10% discount." Su Chongqing
26:23:52didn't want to waste time, so he nodded.
26:23:54A 10% discount it is. Okay. The
26:23:57receptionists eyes lit up. Next, Su
26:23:59Chongqing bought things at both Lingu
26:24:01Residence and Womba Pavilion. Lingua to
26:24:03buy more here, so enjoy a 10% discount.
26:24:06An amu would bed one piece and 13
26:24:09low-grade spirit stones. Blue stone
26:24:12screen, three low-grade spirit stones
26:24:14per screen. Five glass lamps, each
26:24:16containing one low-grade spirit stone. A
26:24:19vine carpet 3 m long sells for two
26:24:22lowgrade spirit stones. Then I bought
26:24:24some things at one. A set of peachwood
26:24:26table and chairs costs five low-grade
26:24:28spirit stones. Storage cabinets, three
26:24:31for one low-grade spirit stone. One set
26:24:34of cooking utensils, a cast iron walk,
26:24:36and a ceramic steamer cost a total of
26:24:38two low-grade spirit stones. One set of
26:24:41table wear, wooden lacquerware bowls and
26:24:43plates, and one low-grade spirit stone.
26:24:45One T set, Celadone T set, two lowgrade
26:24:48spirit stones. The total expenditure on
26:24:51home furnishings and daily necessities
26:24:53this time amounted to 29 lowgrade spirit
26:24:56stones. If it were a truly ordinary
26:24:58independent cultivator, it would take at
26:25:00least a month to earn that much. Such
26:25:02Chonqing put all these things into the
26:25:04Emerald Green Gourd and then quickly
26:25:06left. Besides buying furniture and daily
26:25:08necessities, the most important thing I
26:25:10wanted to do when I came to the market
26:25:12was to get a set of alchemy equipment
26:25:14and a set of weapon crafting equipment.
26:25:16If possible, it would be best to find a
26:25:18few prescriptions for elixirs. After
26:25:20all, Las Wangwin, a traditional Chinese
26:25:23medicine, has run out of new tricks up
26:25:25its sleeve. However, any pill formulas,
26:25:28cultivation methods, or spells that
26:25:30could flow into the market of
26:25:31independent cultivators were either
26:25:32incomplete or extremely low level. Not
26:25:35long after, Such Chonqing arrived at
26:25:37Yuding Xai. When buying things at the
26:25:39Sono Market, there are only two options,
26:25:42or it's a more formal shop like this, or
26:25:45it's a small workshop in some remote
26:25:46corner. If he had enough time, Such
26:25:49Chonqing would really like to look for
26:25:50small workshops. After all, someone who
26:25:53can establish themselves in the market
26:25:54of independent cultivators must have
26:25:56some skills. But now, he only stays for
26:25:59one day. Therefore, finding a reputable
26:26:01shop like this is the most convenient
26:26:03and quickest way. Although the price is
26:26:05a bit high, at least the quality is
26:26:07guaranteed. It was still a female
26:26:09receptionist, quite sweetl looking with
26:26:11two shallow dimples. Welcome. Such Chan
26:26:14went straight to the point. I want to
26:26:16buy alchemy equipment and weapon
26:26:18crafting equipment. Okay, please follow
26:26:20me. The female receptionist led the way.
26:26:22The entire area of Yuding Xai is very
26:26:25large. Various kinds of tripods,
26:26:28furnaces, and wine vessels are
26:26:30displayed. It categorizes quality and
26:26:32price based on the floor level. The
26:26:34first floor is mostly filled with
26:26:36low-quality items. The second floor is
26:26:38at least of excellent quality. Following
26:26:40this logic, the third floor must be the
26:26:42best. Different floors offer different
26:26:44qualities and prices. The female
26:26:46receptionist, seeing that Su Chongqing
26:26:48looked like an ordinary rogue
26:26:50cultivator, led him around the first
26:26:52floor, giving various introductions.
26:26:54This black iron medicine cauldron is the
26:26:57bestselling alchemy equipment on the
26:26:59first floor. It is made of black iron,
26:27:01which is resistant to high temperatures
26:27:03and corrosion and has a large interior
26:27:05space. Such Choning asked curiously,
26:27:08"How many spirit stones?" The female
26:27:10receptionist smiled slightly. 25
26:27:13low-grade spirit stones. Such Chanqing
26:27:15frowned. Is there anything else? The
26:27:18female receptionist assumed it was too
26:27:20expensive, so she pointed to one next to
26:27:22her and said, "This is the most common
26:27:24alchemy furnace cast in bronze." And
26:27:26called the bronze furnace. It only costs
26:27:2920 low-grade spirit stones. Such
26:27:31Chongqing waved his hand. I don't think
26:27:33the price is too high, but rather that
26:27:35it's too ordinary. The female
26:27:37receptionist paused for a moment, then
26:27:39realized and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't
26:27:42understand you. If you need a higher
26:27:44quality furnace, please go to the second
26:27:46floor. Su Chongqing urged impatiently,
26:27:49lead the way. Okay. Okay. The female
26:27:51receptionist's face tightened and she
26:27:53hurriedly led the way. Then the two
26:27:55climbed the stairs to the second floor
26:27:57of Yuding Xai. The items here are half
26:28:00the number compared to the first floor.
26:28:02Regardless of its quality, it looks more
26:28:04premium. Furthermore, there is a
26:28:06customization counter on the second
26:28:07floor. As long as you have the money and
26:28:09the materials, you can have the
26:28:10blacksmiths at Yud Ding Xai forge the
26:28:13item according to your requirements. Su
26:28:15Chongqing was quite curious. How is the
26:28:17price of this custom-made item
26:28:19calculated? The female receptionist
26:28:21explained, "It depends on the quality of
26:28:23the materials and the quantity required.
26:28:26For example, common materials such as
26:28:28black iron, refined iron, and brass
26:28:30would cost around one mid-grade spirit
26:28:32stone for custom orders. For higher
26:28:34grade materials such as black iron,
26:28:36secret gold, and meteorite iron, the
26:28:38custom price is around five mid-grade
26:28:41spirit stones. Top tier materials such
26:28:43as Shiin Bing crystal marrow, Yuming
26:28:45cold jade, and primordial meteorite iron
26:28:48cannot be forged even if one wanted to.
26:28:50After all, this is just a shop located
26:28:52in the market town of scattered
26:28:54cultivators. It doesn't have that kind
26:28:56of capability. Only blacksmiths from
26:28:58immortal sex or those from immortal
26:29:00cultivation families with a lineage
26:29:02possess this skill. Su Chongqing lost
26:29:05interest immediately after hearing this
26:29:07and turned his attention to the alchemy
26:29:09furnace on the second floor. The female
26:29:11receptionist pointed to the bestselling
26:29:13alchemy furnace and said, "This is the
26:29:16mysterious ice spirit furnace. It is
26:29:18made by pouring mysterious ice from the
26:29:20bottom of a thousand-year-old cold pool.
26:29:22The furnace body is as transparent as
26:29:25glass, and there are naturally formed
26:29:27spiral heat dissipation channels inside.
26:29:29Su Chongqing raised his chin, "How's the
26:29:32alchemy going?" The female receptionist
26:29:34quickly replied, "The success rate will
26:29:36increase by 10% and the efficacy of the
26:29:39medicine will be enhanced by 20%." Su
26:29:42Chongqing thought to himself, "I wonder
26:29:44how effective the mysterious Nether
26:29:45Cauldron is in the pill tower." Seeing
26:29:48his silence, the female receptionist
26:29:50mistakenly assumed he wasn't interested
26:29:52and pointed to another furnace, saying,
26:29:55"This is the Starfall secret gold
26:29:57cauldron forged using meteorite iron as
26:29:59the main material and mixed with nine
26:30:01rare metals. It increases the success
26:30:04rate by 20% and the efficacy of the
26:30:06medicine by 30%." Su Chongqing snapped
26:30:09out of his days and looked over. It was
26:30:11discovered that the body of this
26:30:13Starfall secret gold cauldron was
26:30:15actually engraved with the 28
26:30:17constellations. It looks very high-end,
26:30:20even with a touch of mystery. The female
26:30:22receptionist, experienced in her work,
26:30:24immediately understood when she saw the
26:30:26interest in his eyes. The price of the
26:30:28mystic ice furnace is five mid-grade
26:30:30spirit stones. The price of the Starfall
26:30:33secret gold cauldron is seven mid-grade
26:30:36spirit stones. Su Chonqing nodded
26:30:38slightly. Not bad. It's in line with the
26:30:41pricing of the independent cultivator
26:30:42market. Chapter 191 changes. Chapter 191
26:30:46change the female receptionist smile was
26:30:48very sweet. Immortal Master, if you
26:30:51haven't made up your mind, you can tell
26:30:53me your needs so I can make a more
26:30:54accurate recommendation. Su Chonqing
26:30:57asked, "Will you send the pill formula?"
26:30:59The female receptionist nodded. Of
26:31:01course. The mysterious ice spirit
26:31:03furnace will give you a book of
26:31:05introductory alchemy techniques. And the
26:31:07Starfall secret gold cauldron will give
26:31:09you a recipe for a foundation spirit
26:31:11pill. If Su Chongqing was a little
26:31:13hesitant at first, he has now thought it
26:31:15through. Although the Mystic Ice Furnace
26:31:18is cheaper, it only increases the
26:31:20success rate by 10% and the medicinal
26:31:22effect by 20%. The Starfall secret
26:31:25golden cauldron not only increases the
26:31:27success rate by 20% but also enhances
26:31:30the efficacy by 30%. The key point is
26:31:33that he's given a recipe for a
26:31:35foundation spirit pill as a gift and
26:31:37he's even more appealing in terms of
26:31:39looks. For beginner level alchemy
26:31:41furnaces, Su Chongqing prefers the
26:31:43Starfall secret gold cauldron, but we're
26:31:46not in a hurry to take it. We need to
26:31:47check out the equipment for refining
26:31:49first and then settle the accounts
26:31:51together. Soon, the female receptionist
26:31:53led him to another area. Alchemy and
26:31:56weapon crafting are separate processes
26:31:57and are not combined. Compared to
26:31:59alchemy, which only requires one alchemy
26:32:02furnace, this weapon crafting equipment
26:32:04alone has more than three types. Such
26:32:06Chonqing pondered and said, "You can
26:32:08recommend a set of beginner level weapon
26:32:10crafting equipment." The female
26:32:12receptionist pointed to a set next to
26:32:14her and said, "The red iron forging
26:32:16hammer is made of red iron. It is heavy
26:32:19and generates high temperatures when
26:32:21struck which helps to melt metal
26:32:22materials. It is priced at 18 low-grade
26:32:25spirit stones. Jade carving knife. The
26:32:27blade is made of jade, sharp and
26:32:29containing traces of spiritual patterns.
26:32:32It can be used to carve runes on
26:32:33refining materials. It is priced at 25
26:32:36low-grade spirit stones. Brass crucible,
26:32:38high temperature resistant, suitable for
26:32:40smelting various metals and ores. Priced
26:32:43at nine low-grade spirit stones. Upon
26:32:46hearing this, Su Chongqing asked, "What
26:32:48about the molds?" The female
26:32:50receptionist immediately replied, "Basic
26:32:52mold, one set of mid-grade spirit
26:32:54stones. Ordinary spirit weapon mold,
26:32:57three sets of mid-grade spirit stones,
26:32:59ordinary magic weapon mold, seven sets
26:33:01of mid-grade spirit stones." Su
26:33:04Chongqing asked the question that
26:33:05mattered most to him. "What should I
26:33:07give you?" The female receptionist
26:33:09flashed her cute little tiger teeth.
26:33:11We're giving away a free introduction to
26:33:13weapon forging worth 15 lowgrade spirit
26:33:16stones, a detailed explanation of spirit
26:33:18runes worth 25 low-grade spirit stones,
26:33:21and a simple spirit weapon forging
26:33:23diagram worth 35 lowgrade spirit stones.
26:33:26Such Chongqing said earnestly, "This
26:33:28Starfall secret gold cauldron, plus a
26:33:30set of entry-level weapon refining
26:33:32equipment, a set of basic molds, and a
26:33:35set of ordinary spirit weapon molds,
26:33:37give me a fair price." The female
26:33:40receptionist's eyes lit up. If you spend
26:33:42more than 10 mid-grade spirit stones in
26:33:44one transaction, you will automatically
26:33:46become a senior member of our Jade
26:33:48Cauldron Pavilion and enjoy a 10%
26:33:51discount. Now, you only need to pay 11
26:33:53mid-grade spirit stones to get a 3-year
26:33:55warranty. Su Chongqing raised an
26:33:58eyebrow. 11 mid-grade spirit stones plus
26:34:0052 lowgrade spirit stones. No matter how
26:34:03you calculate it, a 10% discount should
26:34:05be 10 mid-grade spirit stones, right?
26:34:08The female receptionist smile remained
26:34:10unchanged. My service fee is in there.
26:34:13Su Chanqing didn't want to argue, so he
26:34:15waved his hand and said, "It doesn't
26:34:17matter. Just hurry up and get it done."
26:34:20Okay. The female receptionist turned and
26:34:22left. In this way, Su Choning consumed
26:34:2511 mid-grade spirit stones. We acquired
26:34:28a Starfall secret gold cauldron, a set
26:34:30of crafting equipment, a set of basic
26:34:32molds, a set of common spiritual weapon
26:34:35molds, a recipe for the Giling Dan. Also
26:34:38included are introduction to weapon
26:34:40forging, detailed explanation of spirit
26:34:43runes, and simplified spirit weapon
26:34:45forging diagrams. With everything
26:34:47settled, he left Yuding Xai with the
26:34:50female receptionists seeing him off. Now
26:34:52all the necessary items have been
26:34:54procured. In addition, there's no need
26:34:56to come here to deliver rice or wine
26:34:58before the Lunar New Year. Therefore,
26:35:00from now until the Lunar New Year, you
26:35:02can focus on your own spiritual field.
26:35:05Such Chongqing strolled along the
26:35:06streets of the market town for wandering
26:35:08cultivators surrounded by them hurrying
26:35:10about. I don't know if it's related to
26:35:12winter, but there are fewer stalls now.
26:35:14Time to go have some fun with the
26:35:16ladies. Yaoang Pavilion is still the
26:35:19same as always. Lively, crowded, and
26:35:22with a great atmosphere. It was filled
26:35:24with a delightful aroma. Compared to the
26:35:26last time I came, there was a new batch
26:35:28of faces. However, the quality has not
26:35:30deteriorated. Whether they were
26:35:32cortisans, dancers, young prostitutes,
26:35:35or even male prostitutes, they were all
26:35:37very beautiful. Previously, those who
26:35:39were less attractive were all assigned
26:35:41to the first floor to receive guests.
26:35:43The higher you go on the second and
26:35:45third floors, the better the aesthetics
26:35:47and the higher the quality. But
26:35:48nowadays, many attractive people are
26:35:50actually assigned to the first floor.
26:35:52Surrounded by a group of beautiful
26:35:54women, Su Chongqing went up to the
26:35:56second floor. Looking at the rows of
26:35:58highquality prostitutes in front of him,
26:36:00he couldn't believe it. Is this the kind
26:36:02of selection available on the second
26:36:04floor? Previously, this level of
26:36:06quality, appearance, and physique would
26:36:09have required at least a third floor
26:36:10apartment. But nowadays, let alone the
26:36:13second floor, there are quite a few on
26:36:14the first floor as well. It seems that
26:36:16the quality and number of users of
26:36:18Yakiang have improved. Subsequently, Su
26:36:21Chonin chose a slightly naive and
26:36:24beautiful young woman. The other person
26:36:26has a very nice name called Moon. Her
26:36:28eyebrows resembled newly cut willow
26:36:30leaves. Her eyes were like pools of
26:36:32spring water. Her nose was straight and
26:36:35delicate. Her lips were naturally red
26:36:37without any lipstick. She was wrapped in
26:36:39a plain gauze robe with wide sleeves and
26:36:42a small golden bell hung on her slender,
26:36:44fair wrist. Immortal, drink some wine.
26:36:47Yuer tried her best to flirt, but her
26:36:49skills were not yet proficient, and she
26:36:51failed to get into the mood several
26:36:53times, which made her neck turn red with
26:36:55frustration. Such Chongqing took the
26:36:57wine glass, took a small sip, and asked,
26:36:59"I haven't been here for a long time.
26:37:01There are a lot of new people at your
26:37:03invitation pavilion lately." Upon
26:37:05hearing this, Uera<unk>s eyes dimmed,
26:37:07and she explained softly. The throne
26:37:09changed hands, factions were destroyed,
26:37:12and we come from the same place. Oh, Su
26:37:15Chongqing asked in surprise. Uera smiled
26:37:17sadly. Does the immortal know that I was
26:37:19once a princess? Su Chonqing couldn't
26:37:22help but turn his gaze to the other
26:37:24side, looking at the fresh faces,
26:37:26regardless of their previous status or
26:37:28position. But here, both men and women
26:37:31have a unified title. Girl, the only
26:37:33thing they could do was to serve the
26:37:35immortals around them well. If you're
26:37:37lucky, someone might pay to buy your
26:37:38freedom, and you'll be freed from your
26:37:40misery. That night, Su Chonqing spent a
26:37:43wonderful evening with Yuer at the Yaoan
26:37:45Pavilion. The next day, he returned to
26:37:47the daunting immortal sect aboard a
26:37:49giant flying sword. As soon as I landed,
26:37:52I saw a familiar face. Who? It's still
26:37:54Le Sanankai. So early, he's still
26:37:57fighting in the ring. This time, the
26:37:59opponent is a fire elemental. The battle
26:38:01was a one-sided crushing defeat from the
26:38:03very beginning. Fire overcomes wood.
26:38:06Both their spiritual roots and
26:38:07attributes are countered by their
26:38:09opponents. Even so, Le Sanankai did not
26:38:12give up and looked for an opportunity to
26:38:14fight back. And then he actually found
26:38:16it. A ball of fire burned away the wall
26:38:19formed by the vines. But Lee Sankai, who
26:38:21was hiding behind it, disappeared. Um,
26:38:24just as the fire spirit root was filled
26:38:26with doubt and uncertainty. A rustling
26:38:29sound suddenly came from under his feet.
26:38:31He looked down and his pupils
26:38:33immediately contracted. Countless seeds
26:38:35transformed into dense, thorny vines in
26:38:37the blink of an eye. Starting from the
26:38:39feet, it wraps around the whole person
26:38:41like a snake coiling around a python. At
26:38:44first, the fire elemental root could
26:38:46still struggle a few times inside, but
26:38:48after a short while, it went silent.
26:38:50With a thud, he fell straight down on
26:38:52the ring. At this moment, Le Sanankai,
26:38:55covered in burns, appeared from the
26:38:57other side of the ring. But he felt
26:38:59neither the joy of victory nor the pain
26:39:01of injury. In his eyes, there was only
26:39:03that one resolute look. Leankai won. He
26:39:06lost at least dozens of times during
26:39:08this period to turn the tide and win
26:39:10despite being at a disadvantage in terms
26:39:12of attributes. Impressive. The onlookers
26:39:15were a buzz with discussion. From the
26:39:17corner, Su Chonqing had witnessed the
26:39:19entire battle and murmured. The second
26:39:22level of with spirit entanglement
26:39:23technique. Chapter 192. Refining the
26:39:26foundation spirit pill. Chapter 192.
26:39:29Refining the foundation elixir. Everyone
26:39:31has their own life. My own choice. Su
26:39:34Chongqing. as an immortal being plays
26:39:37the role of an observer. Therefore, he
26:39:39did not disturb Leang Kai as he stepped
26:39:41off the stage, but quietly left. Not
26:39:44long after, they returned to their own
26:39:46little plot of land. Woof! Woof! After
26:39:48not seeing each other all night, Wong
26:39:50Wong, who had been huddled in its den,
26:39:52excitedly ran out. "Get closer." He was
26:39:55urinating at the same time. It managed
26:39:57to draw a winding straight line. Inside
26:40:00the hen house, the guinea fowl clucked
26:40:02twice, its eyes calmly fixed on the
26:40:04scene. Five fire crows circled directly
26:40:07above the spirit field, making cawing
26:40:09sounds. Beneath the popppler tree, the
26:40:11fortress spoke in a deep, resonant
26:40:14voice, "Welcome home, master." Looking
26:40:16at the scene before him, Su Chongqing
26:40:19felt a strong sense of satisfaction.
26:40:21When Wong Wong got close, he squatted
26:40:23down and angrily rubbed the dog's head.
26:40:25After having a great time, they took
26:40:27their purchases and went into the stone
26:40:29house. First floor, a living room and a
26:40:32kitchen. The living room is furnished
26:40:34with brand new mahogany tables and
26:40:35chairs as well as lacquered wooden bowls
26:40:38and plates. The kitchen replaced the old
26:40:40ones with new cast iron walks and
26:40:42earthnware steamers. Second floor, one
26:40:45bedroom and one study. The ordinary
26:40:47wooden bed in the bedroom was burned as
26:40:49firewood and replaced with a fragrant
26:40:51and soft high-grade Namu wood bed. A
26:40:53blue stone screen is placed near the
26:40:55bedroom door to block out the bed and
26:40:57increase privacy. Five glass lamps were
26:40:59placed. One in the living room, one in
26:41:01the kitchen, one in the bedroom, one in
26:41:03the study, and one was kept as a spare.
26:41:06The vine rug was divided into two
26:41:08sections. Two meters were laid on the
26:41:10bedroom floor and one meter was laid on
26:41:12the study floor. Three storage cabinets,
26:41:14one in the living room, one in the
26:41:16bedroom, and one in the study. Basic
26:41:18elixir. Introduction to weapon forging.
26:41:21Basic explanation of spirit runes
26:41:24simplified spirit weapon crafting
26:41:26diagram. The knowledge inside has been
26:41:28imprinted in my mind with my spiritual
26:41:30awareness. So it is all placed on the
26:41:32bookshelf. After finishing, Su Chongqing
26:41:35stood at the door, looking at the brand
26:41:36new bedroom and study and suddenly
26:41:38frowned. I feel like something's
26:41:40missing. He went back down the stairs to
26:41:42the first floor and headed straight for
26:41:44the kitchen. But instead of cooking, we
26:41:46went to the basement entrance, opened
26:41:48it, and began to delve deeper into the
26:41:49basement. The basement space is more
26:41:52spacious than before and its area is
26:41:54almost the same as the upstairs.
26:41:56Moreover, it has been expanded from one
26:41:58floor to two floors. The basement level
26:42:01is mainly used to store brewing
26:42:02equipment and miscellaneous items. The
26:42:05wines are premium Lingi wine, top grade
26:42:07Lingi wine, and top grade yellow rice
26:42:10wine. Take the highquality spirit rice
26:42:12wine to the market where you practice
26:42:13aeticism. Share this premium Lingi wine
26:42:16with your friends. I'll keep the premium
26:42:18yellow rice wine for myself. The second
26:42:20basement level is divided into three
26:42:22areas. They are the alchemy area, the
26:42:25weapon crafting area, and the
26:42:27cultivation room. The first two, as
26:42:29their name suggest, are for placing
26:42:31alchemy furnaces, refining equipment,
26:42:33and molds. The training room was mainly
26:42:35for Su Chongqing to test his cultivation
26:42:38techniques, and spells. Overall, a brand
26:42:40new home has been furnished and will not
26:42:42change much for at least 10 years. Such
26:42:45Chanqing was very satisfied and grinned.
26:42:47I still have 5 days to go find senior
26:42:49sister Yu. I can try to refine the
26:42:51foundation spirit pill myself and even
26:42:53try to forge ordinary spiritual weapons.
26:42:56Suddenly, life became fulfilling. In the
26:42:59past, all I knew was farming and
26:43:01cultivating various spiritual plants.
26:43:03Nowadays, it can also be used for
26:43:05alchemy, weapon crafting, and even the
26:43:07preparation of spiritual food. As the
26:43:09time spent cultivating immortality
26:43:11increased, the number of skills learned
26:43:13also increased. Next, he set up all the
26:43:16alchemy and weapon-making equipment.
26:43:18When we returned to the basement, we
26:43:20even made a special trip to get a small
26:43:22bottle of premium yellow rice wine. In a
26:43:24way, this can be considered moving to a
26:43:26new home. However, Su Chongqing had no
26:43:29intention of informing his friends.
26:43:31Privately, I'll just grab Wong Wong,
26:43:33pearl chicken, five fire crows, and
26:43:35fortress for a drink. With the Lunar New
26:43:37Year approaching, everyone is very busy,
26:43:40especially those who want to participate
26:43:41in the formal disciple competition, who
26:43:44are probably trying to improve
26:43:45themselves in every possible way. The
26:43:47best example is Lee Sanankai. Every
26:43:49morning, they would go to the forging
26:43:51peak to fight and hone their combat
26:43:53experience and skills. Presumably,
26:43:55Hubuay and the others shared similar
26:43:57thoughts. Only Su Chongqing didn't feel
26:44:00any urgency because he didn't want to
26:44:02participate in the competition. Soon, a
26:44:04sumptuous meal was prepared. To
26:44:06celebrate, Sue Chongqing even added some
26:44:09meat. I stir-fried a plate of spirit
26:44:11beast meat with top quality chili
26:44:13peppers. I also stewed a pot of top
26:44:15quality winter melon and pork rib soup.
26:44:17The premium ling rice is plentiful.
26:44:19Enjoying a delicious meal. Sipping a
26:44:22small glass of wine. It has a unique
26:44:24charm in the cold winter. After eating
26:44:26and drinking his fill and washing the
26:44:28dishes, Su Chongqing sat on his newly
26:44:31bought Peachwood chair and began to
26:44:32study the second pill formula, the
26:44:34foundation pill. This is a pill taken
26:44:37during the foundation establishment
26:44:38stage, which accelerates the absorption
26:44:41and refining efficiency of spiritual
26:44:43energy. I learned it in no time.
26:44:45Galingam beginner. Effect one, enhanced
26:44:48spiritual awareness plus 15%. Effect
26:44:51two, spiritual energy absorption
26:44:53efficiency plus 20%. Effect three,
26:44:57temporarily increases meridian
26:44:58resilience by 10%. Su Chongqing nodded
26:45:02slightly. As expected of a pill that can
26:45:04only be taken by those in the foundation
26:45:06establishment stage, its effects are
26:45:08almost the same as those of highquality
26:45:10spirit rice wine. Should I sacrifice 7
26:45:13years of my lifespan to upgrade the
26:45:15foundation pill to mastery? Yes.
26:45:18Remaining lifespan, 699 years. Gilead's
26:45:22elixir, miraculous healing. Effect one,
26:45:25enhanced spiritual awareness plus 50%.
26:45:28Effect two, spiritual energy absorption
26:45:30efficiency plus 80%. Effect three,
26:45:34temporarily increases meridian
26:45:36resilience by 30%. Special effect one,
26:45:39long-term use permanently increases
26:45:41meridian resilience by plus 10%. Special
26:45:44effect two. There is a chance to form a
26:45:46spiritual energy vortex, increasing
26:45:48absorption efficiency by another 50%.
26:45:51Such Chongqing<unk>s eyes lit up. That's
26:45:54interesting. When the spiritual energy
26:45:55tide appears next spring, we can try it
26:45:58out. Of course, he wants to sell this
26:45:59chilling pill. The labor strengthening
26:46:01pill is for independent cultivators in
26:46:03theqi refining stage. The foundation
26:46:06establishment pill is for independent
26:46:08cultivators in the foundation
26:46:09establishment stage. However, they
26:46:11shouldn't expect to get their hands on
26:46:13any special effect elixirs. Such
26:46:15Chonqing kept the top grade or even the
26:46:17finest pills for himself. The main
26:46:19ingredients of the Gilindon are iron
26:46:22sand, green vine, cold pool water, red
26:46:24flame grass, and spirit rice. Su
26:46:27Chonqing had none of the other four
26:46:28ingredients besides the spirit rice.
26:46:31Therefore, if you want to refine the
26:46:32foundation spirit pill, you still have
26:46:34to make a trip to the Red Maple Valley
26:46:36Market. We can only officially begin
26:46:38after all the materials have been
26:46:40procured. In the past, Such Chonqing
26:46:42might have hesitated. It takes quite a
26:46:44long time for a paper crane to fly back
26:46:46and forth, but now he's upgraded from a
26:46:48ragtag bunch to a fast-moving giant.
26:46:51Therefore, without the slightest
26:46:52hesitation, I decisively walked out the
26:46:55door. To make it even faster, a trace of
26:46:58fire elemental power was even injected.
26:47:00The wood elemental energy was instantly
26:47:02ignited and the large leafed grass shot
26:47:04out. In the blink of an eye, the person
26:47:07disappeared into the distance. Not long
26:47:09after, Su Chongqing arrived at the Red
26:47:11Maple Valley Market. It's quite lively
26:47:14here. The place was bustling with noise
26:47:16and crowded with people. The trading
26:47:18points of the five major factions were
26:47:19almost overflowing with people.
26:47:21Unsurprisingly, many people here want to
26:47:24participate in the formal disciple
26:47:25competition after the new year. Iron
26:47:28sand and coldpool water are commonly
26:47:30used raw materials for refining weapons
26:47:32and they can be purchased from the
26:47:33spirit weapon workshop. Both greenwood
26:47:36vine and crimson flame grass can be
26:47:38purchased from both Nomshin Society and
26:47:40Daniel Alliance. Although prices inside
26:47:43the immortal sect are higher than
26:47:44outside, the quality is guaranteed.
26:47:47Considering that alchemy would be
26:47:48followed by weapon crafting and not
26:47:50wanting to travel back and forth, they
26:47:52decided to pursue their goals. Such
26:47:54Chanqing simply bought all the materials
26:47:56he needed at once. Chapter 193, the
26:47:59elixir is complete. Chapter 193, the
26:48:02pill is complete. Beneath the Starfall
26:48:05secret gold cauldron, orange mortal fire
26:48:07burns fiercely as the temperature inside
26:48:10the cauldron gradually rises. Changes
26:48:12occur on its surface. The tail fire
26:48:14tiger, the chamber fire pig, the beak
26:48:16fire monkey, and the wing fire serpent
26:48:18from the 28 mansions all lit up, echoing
26:48:21each other in the four positions of the
26:48:23golden cauldron. Each time a star
26:48:25representing fire lights up, it
26:48:26signifies a rise in temperature. If all
26:48:29four lights are on, it means you can
26:48:31begin refining the elixir. Such Chanqing
26:48:34seized the opportunity and threw the
26:48:35highquality iron sand he had purchased
26:48:37into it, and a hissing sound immediately
26:48:39rang out. The iron filings bounce back
26:48:42and forth inside looking like ants
26:48:44struggling on a hot pan. Under high
26:48:46temperature calcination, its vitality
26:48:49begins to be lost and it decomposes
26:48:51little by little, leaving behind the
26:48:53pure part while the impurities are
26:48:54directly oxidized. Soon it turns from
26:48:57silvery gray to reddish brown. This step
26:49:00is called subduing the fire. It is
26:49:02specifically used to quench metals,
26:49:04remove impurities, and eliminate
26:49:06toxicity. After a while, Su Chongqing
26:49:09saw that it was almost ready. So, he
26:49:11used a wooden spoon about the length of
26:49:12his arm to scoop out the reddish brown
26:49:14iron sand that had shrunk to half its
26:49:16original size and put it into the mortar
26:49:18and pestle that had been prepared next
26:49:20to him. Before the temperature dropped,
26:49:22he threw in several more crimson flame
26:49:24grasses. A series of hissing sounds rang
26:49:26out. A wisp of red flame also appeared.
26:49:29Seeing this, Such Chongqing remained
26:49:31calm and showed no reaction whatsoever.
26:49:34Currently, all changes are normal and
26:49:36there are no surprises. He washed
26:49:38helplessly as the crimson flame grass
26:49:40burned to ashes, then picked up the
26:49:42greenwood vine that had been washed
26:49:43clean and even had its outer skin peeled
26:49:46off, broke it into several sections by
26:49:48hand, and threw them in one by one. At
26:49:50this point, the temperature inside the
26:49:52cauldron had become quite high due to
26:49:54the addition of iron sand and red flame
26:49:56grass. As soon as the vine was added,
26:49:59its surface began to char and become
26:50:01crispy, and a small amount of juice was
26:50:03extracted from it. But little by little,
26:50:05the amount increases over time. Once it
26:50:08has completely turned into a green
26:50:09slurry, pour it into the slightly cool
26:50:12water of the cold pool. With a hissing
26:50:14sound, the contents inside reacted
26:50:16violently, and a burst of white hot air
26:50:19shot out. The ashes of the crimson flame
26:50:21grass and the sap of the green wood vine
26:50:23completely merged with the water of the
26:50:25icy pool. It suddenly became murky and
26:50:28emitted a pungent fishy smell. Such
26:50:30Chongqing seemed not to smell it and
26:50:32expressionlessly threw in his own top
26:50:34grade spirit rice. There was quite a lot
26:50:36of it, at least a handful. Next, start
26:50:39stirring clockwise with a wooden spoon.
26:50:41Round and round it goes until it stops
26:50:43after 49 laps. At this point, with
26:50:46continuous stirring, the liquid inside
26:50:48was no longer as turbid as before.
26:50:51Especially that fishy smell, it seemed
26:50:53to have disappeared and never appeared
26:50:55again. Such Chongqing walked to the side
26:50:57and used a pestle to crush the cooled
26:50:59iron sand, which had been placed in the
26:51:01mortar and pestle in a fine powder and
26:51:04then poured it all into the golden
26:51:05cauldron. Glug glug glug. The reaction
26:51:08was quite strong with bubbles constantly
26:51:11emerging. The temperature seems to have
26:51:13suddenly risen again. Such Chan picked
26:51:15up the wooden spoon again and stirred it
26:51:17counterclockwise, making a full 81
26:51:19revolutions. The liquid inside is
26:51:22sometimes clear and sometimes murky,
26:51:24constantly changing. It looked as if
26:51:26something inside was constantly
26:51:28undulating, which appeared somewhat
26:51:29strange. As the stirring ended, the fire
26:51:32tiger, fire pig, and fire monkey that
26:51:34had been lit up around the golden
26:51:36cauldron dimmed, but the winged fire
26:51:38snake remained unlit. At the same time,
26:51:40the hornedwood dragon, the Lu golden
26:51:43dog, and the Jinseng water ape lit up
26:51:45one after another. This situation
26:51:47indicates that the internal temperature
26:51:49has reached a threshold and has
26:51:50stabilized. Su Chongqing breathed a sigh
26:51:53of relief. This is my first time truly
26:51:55refining pills, and I am indeed a little
26:51:58nervous. Fortunately, I have already
26:52:00reached the master level, so it is
26:52:02impossible for me to make a mistake. The
26:52:04liquid, a mixture of iron sand, cold
26:52:07pool water, green vines, and red flame
26:52:09grass, gradually oxidized, evaporated,
26:52:12and decreased over time. However, this
26:52:15is something that was bound to happen.
26:52:16This means that the impurities inside
26:52:18are further removed. What remains will
26:52:20be the very essence of the essence. At
26:52:23the previous pill tasting event, Su
26:52:25Chongqing had personally witnessed how
26:52:26Fong Xiaozi refined top grade foundation
26:52:29spirit pills, and he was thoroughly
26:52:31familiar with the techniques and steps
26:52:32involved. All that's left to do is wait.
26:52:35Wait until there's only enough liquid
26:52:36inside for one bowl of water before
26:52:38making a move. Time passed second by
26:52:41second, and no one knew how much time
26:52:42had gone by. Suddenly, one after
26:52:45another, the hornedwood dragon, the Lu
26:52:47golden dog, the Jins Singh water ape,
26:52:49and the winged fire serpent dimmed.
26:52:51Subsequently, by Yu Wu, one of the seven
26:52:54constellations of the white tiger in the
26:52:56west and representing the moon lit up.
26:52:58This is a signal if the stars
26:53:00representing the moon on all four sides
26:53:02light up. This indicates that the
26:53:04temperature inside the golden cauldron
26:53:05is dropping and a fire needs to be added
26:53:07promptly. Such Chanqing leaned closer to
26:53:10take a look and found that the liquid
26:53:11inside had decreased just enough for one
26:53:14bowl. Upon seeing this, he immediately
26:53:16activated the nine flames profound
26:53:19technique, activating the fire elemental
26:53:21power within his chi. In an instant, his
26:53:24palms turned crimson and he slammed them
26:53:26down on the golden cauldron in front of
26:53:28him. Intense heat erupted in an instant.
26:53:31Phew. The mortal fire beneath the golden
26:53:33cauldron also turned crimson. The raging
26:53:36flames quickly burned the firewood to
26:53:38ashes and then went out. Thus, the only
26:53:40thing maintaining the temperature of the
26:53:42golden cauldron was the fire elemental
26:53:44energy in Sue Chongqing<unk>s dantion.
26:53:47He had known this step would come, so he
26:53:49remained calm and composed. As the fire
26:53:51elemental energy in the cheese sea was
26:53:54gradually consumed, the liquid inside
26:53:56the cauldron solidified, becoming less
26:53:58turbid and more viscous. Not long after
26:54:01the Fong Reto, which was directly
26:54:03opposite by Yu Wu, lit up. When the sun
26:54:05and moon are in the sky, In and Yang are
26:54:08in balance. Sizzle. A wisp of smoke with
26:54:11the smell of medicinal herbs wafted out
26:54:14from inside. Upon seeing this, Su
26:54:16Choning not only did not remove the
26:54:18viscous liquid, but instead covered the
26:54:20golden cauldron completely with the lid.
26:54:22Moreover, it continues to transmit fire
26:54:25elemental power, showing no sign of
26:54:27stopping. The light didn't stop until
26:54:29the stars representing the sun and moon
26:54:31heart moon fox void sun rat ple sun
26:54:33rooster star sun horse extended moon
26:54:36deer and dangerous moon swallow all lit
26:54:38up at the same time. He took several
26:54:40steps back and silently estimated the
26:54:42time in his mind. Being reserved is also
26:54:45a skill. Many alchemists overlook this
26:54:47step assuming it's done and proceed
26:54:49directly to produce the product. In
26:54:51fact, this step not only compresses the
26:54:54liquid medicine, but also releases the
26:54:56impurities that remain deep inside. The
26:54:58quantity will definitely be less, but
26:55:00the quality will absolutely not be
26:55:02inferior. Of course, if you only care
26:55:04about quantity and not quality, you can
26:55:07make your move. Now, this is Sue
26:55:08Chongqing<unk>s first time refining a
26:55:10foundation spirit pill, and he has to
26:55:12make it a success no matter what.
26:55:15Therefore, he didn't care how many pills
26:55:17were successfully made. He only pursued
26:55:19the final quality. Before long, a
26:55:21buzzing sound came from the golden
26:55:23cauldron. The air inside seemed to have
26:55:25reached its limit. The lid of the
26:55:27cauldron began to sway left and right as
26:55:29if it might be lifted at any moment.
26:55:31Seeing this, Su Chongqing waved his
26:55:34hand, and with the transfer of spiritual
26:55:36power, the lid of the cauldron rose into
26:55:38the air. With a whoosh, the compressed
26:55:41hot air inside gushed out. The already
26:55:43hot alchemy room was heated even more
26:55:46with the temperature rising several
26:55:48degrees. Su Chongqing, who had a fire
26:55:50spirit route, wasn't too uncomfortable.
26:55:52After the heat dissipated, he stepped
26:55:55forward and glanced at the medicinal
26:55:56liquid in the golden cauldron. It has
26:55:58changed from a murky color at the
26:56:00beginning to a bluish yellow color now.
26:56:02If it was a full bowl of water before,
26:56:04it should now be only half a bowl of
26:56:06water left. Such Chonqing activated the
26:56:09nine flames profound technique again,
26:56:11gradually drawing away the fire energy
26:56:13from the golden cauldron, and then
26:56:15divided the remaining medicinal liquid
26:56:17in two. The elixir is now complete.
26:56:20Chapter 194. It's snowing. Chapter 194.
26:56:23It's snowing. The foundation pill has
26:56:25been refined, but because of the
26:56:26scarcity of materials, there are only
26:56:28two pills. They look like a pair of
26:56:30twins. Its color is greenish yellow, and
26:56:33it is round and smooth like jade. It
26:56:35exudes a unique fragrance of grass and
26:56:38trees. If we disregard quantity and only
26:56:40look at quality, the color, weight,
26:56:43roundness, and aroma concentration of
26:56:45the top grade foundational pills were
26:56:47exactly the same as those refined by
26:56:49Fong Xiai. In other words, Su
26:56:51Chongqing<unk>s first real alchemy
26:56:53attempt, and the foundation
26:56:55establishment pill, which can only be
26:56:56taken by those in the foundation
26:56:58establishment stage, was of the highest
26:57:00quality right away. He resisted the urge
26:57:03to swallow and in a flash of thought, he
26:57:05transferred everything into the green
26:57:07gourd. It's not too late to eat it next
26:57:09spring when the spiritual energy tide
26:57:11erupts. After all, the content of wood
26:57:14elemental energy drops sharply in
26:57:16winter. It would be a waste to eat it
26:57:18now. Such Chongqing then began the
26:57:20cleanup work. Remove the ashes from
26:57:22inside and below the golden cauldron.
26:57:24Used wooden spoons, mortars, etc.
26:57:27Everything was cleaned spotlessly
26:57:29without a speck of dust. To be honest,
26:57:32he always felt that he had
26:57:33obsessivempulsive disorder. Previously,
26:57:35when washing dishes, I only focused on
26:57:38getting them clean, so the effect might
26:57:39not have been very noticeable. After
26:57:41switching to a complete set of alchemy
26:57:43equipment, there was practically no
26:57:45impurity left. Even the smallest spot
26:57:47makes me incredibly upset. I have to get
26:57:50rid of it. After everything was settled,
26:57:52Su Chonqing turned and walked towards
26:57:54the steps, quickly returning to the
26:57:56second floor. It was already late at
26:57:58night outside. Wong Wong, Guinea, Finch,
26:58:00and Fortress had been resting for a long
26:58:02time and were not making any noise. Even
26:58:05the five fire attribute fire crows have
26:58:07returned to the stone house and are now
26:58:09standing in a row, looking dazed. Seeing
26:58:12this, Such Chonqing took out a handful
26:58:14of top grade spirit rice, and fed them
26:58:16one by one. Starting with the largest
26:58:18crow, which occupies the middle
26:58:20position, all the way up to the fifth
26:58:22crow. After feeding them, he specially
26:58:24infused each fire crow with a trace of
26:58:26warm fire spirit power. They originally
26:58:29lived in the fire zone, feeding on
26:58:31various fire attribute foods year round
26:58:33and especially entering the crevices of
26:58:35the earth to devour some fire crystals.
26:58:37However, nowadays, because they have to
26:58:40circle the spirit field everyday, they
26:58:42cannot go to the earth fire zone.
26:58:44Therefore, whenever Su Chongqing had
26:58:46time, he would use his own fire
26:58:48elemental power to infuse it, which is
26:58:50the same principle as supplementing
26:58:52nutrition. If a fire crow does not
26:58:54replenish its fire energy for a long
26:58:56time, it will lose its vitality. At that
26:58:58point, your mood and emotions will
26:59:00worsen and you'll start to give up. Of
26:59:02course, once the golden crow vine grows
26:59:04new nodules and gathers fire energy
26:59:06again, they will have a food source.
26:59:09Such Chongqing placed a porcelain plate
26:59:11in front of the five fire crows, then
26:59:13walked to the balcony. Outside, the
26:59:15chirping of insects and croaking of
26:59:17frogs from summer are long gone,
26:59:19replaced by the whooshing sound of the
26:59:20wind. A cold wind blew, making the
26:59:23weather freezing, and all was silent.
26:59:25Tonight, the clouds are obscuring the
26:59:27moon, and only a crescent moon can be
26:59:29seen. The faint moonlight could not
26:59:32illuminate the spiritual field below. As
26:59:34a result, the outside world appeared
26:59:36gray and gloomy. Ta! Tick tock.
26:59:39Suddenly, something fell from the sky.
26:59:41Then, it made a rustling sound. At
26:59:43first, there were very few, just one or
26:59:45two occasionally. As time went on, the
26:59:48number increased, eventually becoming
26:59:50densely packed. Such Chongqing scanned
26:59:52the objects with his spiritual sense and
26:59:54found them to be quite small and
26:59:56predominantly white, he exclaimed in
26:59:58surprise. This seems to be called
27:00:00snowflakes, right? It is formed by cold
27:00:03water droplets freezing on ice crystals
27:00:05and usually appears before snow or hail.
27:00:08At this moment, these things began to
27:00:10fall from the sky and the situation was
27:00:12self-evident. Sure enough, not long
27:00:15after, soft, fluffy snowflakes began to
27:00:17fall from the sky. When it lands, it
27:00:20collides and rubs against the grapple,
27:00:22making a rustling sound. To be honest,
27:00:24it actually sounds kind of nice. At the
27:00:26same time, an extreme chill spread
27:00:29silently. Wong Wong, who was sleeping,
27:00:31subconsciously curled up. The guinea
27:00:33fowl, huddled together, shrank even
27:00:36further into the corner. The fortress,
27:00:38however, remained completely still, like
27:00:41a dead tree trunk, showing no reaction
27:00:43whatsoever, as if it had truly made the
27:00:46area under the popular tree its home.
27:00:48Such Chongqing raised an eyebrow. The
27:00:50snow came early this year. He turned and
27:00:52went back to the bedroom, closing the
27:00:54balcony door behind him. The advantages
27:00:56of the stone house became immediately
27:00:58apparent. You could no longer feel the
27:01:00slightest breeze. Inside the room, the
27:01:03five fire crows had already poured the
27:01:05fire spirit liquid into a porcelain
27:01:07dish, the same amount as before. Even
27:01:09with five drops put together, it was
27:01:11still only a tiny bit. Seeing this, Su
27:01:14Chongqing did not absorb it, but instead
27:01:16put it in a small gourd. In fact, he did
27:01:19not refine the fire spirit liquid
27:01:20produced by the fire crow during this
27:01:22period. Instead, he put it all into the
27:01:25same small gourd and waited until it was
27:01:27completely full before using it.
27:01:29Afterwards, he took off his formal
27:01:30disciples robes, climbed onto the soft
27:01:33Nanmu bed, covered himself with a snow
27:01:35white silk quilt, and closed his eyes to
27:01:37fall into a deep sleep. Time flew by,
27:01:40and the next day arrived. After waking
27:01:42up, Su Chongqing opened the window.
27:01:45Suddenly, a gust of cold wind mixed with
27:01:47falling snow blew in. The outside world,
27:01:50or rather the vast spiritual field, is
27:01:53now covered by a layer of snow. Both the
27:01:55guinea fowl and the hamsters stayed
27:01:57huddled in their nests, too lazy to come
27:01:59out. Only the honest man's fortress
27:02:02still carefully patrols the sacred
27:02:03fields and stonehouses. Clean up dog
27:02:06poop. Clean up the chicken droppings. Of
27:02:09course, because it was winter and
27:02:10snowing, there were very few weeds. The
27:02:13entire inspection process has become
27:02:14much simpler than before. Seeing this,
27:02:17Such Chongqing closed the window, then
27:02:19got dressed and quickly went downstairs.
27:02:22The heavy stone door was pulled open and
27:02:24a fierce cold wind carrying dense
27:02:27snowflakes attempted to invade this
27:02:29unexplored territory. At this moment, Su
27:02:32Choning activated the nine flames
27:02:34profound technique and the fire
27:02:36spiritual power in his Dantion surged
27:02:38out causing his entire body to radiate
27:02:40intense heat from the inside out. With a
27:02:42whoosh, the wind was stopped and the
27:02:45snow evaporated into mist. Then stepping
27:02:48through the thick snow, he walked
27:02:49towards the second acre of spiritual
27:02:51field. Upon entering, they discovered
27:02:53that many of the golden mutated spirit
27:02:55rice plants were covered in a layer of
27:02:57pure white. The original opulent and
27:03:00luxurious style suddenly became low-key
27:03:03and understated. Su Chongqing nodded
27:03:05slightly. It's all right. It will
27:03:07definitely be right before the new year.
27:03:09Compared to ordinary spirit rice, the
27:03:11mutated spirit rice is stronger in every
27:03:14aspect. Its resistance to extreme cold
27:03:16and heat is several times greater. A
27:03:19little bit of wind and frost does them
27:03:21no harm at all. Therefore, Such Chonqing
27:03:23only glanced at it before dropping the
27:03:25companion lotus and turning to walk
27:03:27towards the chicken coupe. If he
27:03:29remembers correctly, he can touch the
27:03:30eggs again today. At this moment, the
27:03:33guinea foul in the coupe stared at the
27:03:34outside world with their round eyes wide
27:03:36open. Suddenly, a familiar face came
27:03:39into view and instantly filled my entire
27:03:41pupil. Even the outside light was
27:03:43blocked and the chicken coupe was
27:03:45suddenly pitch black. It's that huge
27:03:47chicken brother again. Each time he
27:03:50would have to push the evil hand down to
27:03:51his lower body to explore. The eggs are
27:03:54going to die again. Of course, Guinea
27:03:56Fowl have become accustomed to or rather
27:03:59numb to this situation and no longer
27:04:01have any expectations of it. I just hope
27:04:03that after the huge hen takes the eggs,
27:04:05he won't have any bad thoughts about me.
27:04:08Sigh. Being a chicken is really hard.
27:04:10Chapter 195, Forging Techniques,
27:04:13Masterful Hands. Chapter 195, Forging
27:04:16Skills: Masterful Hands. Because it was
27:04:18freezing outside, Su Chongqing didn't
27:04:21want to go out. Although I'm not afraid
27:04:22of the cold, the main problem is that
27:04:24there's nothing to do. Therefore, after
27:04:26making breakfast, he took a bowl of
27:04:28tinder yellow steamed egg custard to the
27:04:30second basement level. But this time, it
27:04:33wasn't about refining pills. After all,
27:04:35it had only been a few hours since the
27:04:37last one ended. Upon arriving at the
27:04:39weapon refining area, Su Chongqing
27:04:41looked thoughtful as he gazed at the
27:04:42various weapon refining equipment before
27:04:44him. These crafted equipment are
27:04:46hematite forging hammer, function one,
27:04:49material shaping, function two,
27:04:51spiritual energy guidance, jade carving
27:04:54knife, function one, rune engraving,
27:04:56function two, spirit rune modification,
27:04:59brass crucible. Function one, material
27:05:01smelting. Function two, attribute
27:05:04harmony, basic mold. Function one,
27:05:07shaping of ordinary utensils. Function
27:05:09two, standardized production, common
27:05:12spiritual weapon mold. Function one,
27:05:14shaping ordinary spiritual artifacts.
27:05:17Function two, pre-installation of
27:05:19formations and runes. Of course, there
27:05:21were also stoves, bellows, and cooking
27:05:24platforms, all of which were provided as
27:05:26gifts when Han Su built the second
27:05:28basement level. Currently, these are
27:05:30sufficient for forging common basic
27:05:32tools and ordinary spiritual artifacts.
27:05:35Therefore, Su Chongqing plans to give it
27:05:37a try today to see if he has any talent
27:05:39in this area. For the first time, you
27:05:41definitely can't choose a spirit weapon.
27:05:43Even the most ordinary spirit weapon is
27:05:45difficult to obtain. Trying something
27:05:47without any experience will not only
27:05:49result in 100% failure, but also waste
27:05:52time and materials. He set his sights on
27:05:54the basic mold, intending to forge a
27:05:56scythe. As a spirit farmer, it makes
27:05:59perfect sense for me to forge a sickle,
27:06:01right? It's mainly simple without too
27:06:03many complicated steps. Although Su
27:06:05Chongqing had already imprinted all the
27:06:08introduction to weapon forging, detailed
27:06:10explanation of basic spirit runes and
27:06:12simple spirit weapon forging diagrams
27:06:15into his mind. It was as if he had
27:06:17memorized them completely. However,
27:06:19there is a big difference between
27:06:20memorizing and applying. Slurp. Such
27:06:23Chongqing finished the steamed egg
27:06:25custard in one gulp, then put the
27:06:27porcelain bowl aside. He put his right
27:06:29hand into the stove and rubbed his thumb
27:06:31and forefinger back and forth. A faint
27:06:33orange flame appeared instantly igniting
27:06:36the firewood inside. The first step in
27:06:38forging is to set up the furnace and
27:06:40start a fire. Then Su Chongqing pulled
27:06:42the bellows next to him. Few, few. As
27:06:45the drum was pulled, the flames in the
27:06:47furnace grew ever stronger. It quickly
27:06:50changed from orange to cyan. The
27:06:52temperature at this time is about twice
27:06:53that of the orange flame. It has reached
27:06:55the level required for basic forging.
27:06:58Therefore, Su Chongqing proceeded to the
27:07:00second step, which was to melt iron into
27:07:02molten liquid. Place the brass crucible
27:07:05next to you on the stove, and when the
27:07:06inside starts to glow red and emits hot
27:07:09air, immediately put the purchased iron
27:07:11ingots inside. The whole process was
27:07:13very quiet with almost no noise. Before
27:07:16long, the red hot iron ingot began to
27:07:18melt into molten iron, starting from the
27:07:21bottom where it was first heated. Some
27:07:23impurities turned into black slag
27:07:25floating on the surface and edges of the
27:07:27molten iron. Seeing this, Such Chongqing
27:07:30scooped it up with a spoon and quickly
27:07:32dumped it into a ceramic jar next to
27:07:34him. Once the iron ingot has completely
27:07:36melted into molten iron, immediately
27:07:38pour it into the sickle mold. A standard
27:07:41mold is a complete set which includes
27:07:43almost all the tools needed for daily
27:07:45use. The items include sickles, shovels,
27:07:48hose, hammers, rakes, and more than 20
27:07:50other types. When the molten iron in the
27:07:53mold turns dark red and is in a
27:07:55semi-olid state, it will be ready. Such
27:07:57Chanqing quickly took it out and placed
27:07:59it on the hard anvil. Then use pliers to
27:08:02hold it in place with your left hand. He
27:08:04swung the hematite forging hammer with
27:08:06his right hand. Then he began to lightly
27:08:08tap the ground, one tap after another.
27:08:11For a moment, the sound of clanging and
27:08:14banging echoed continuously on the
27:08:16second basement floor. With continuous
27:08:18hammering, the blade gradually becomes
27:08:20thinner and sharper. Once it has fully
27:08:22taken shape, immediately use iron tongs
27:08:25to immerse it in the cold pool water.
27:08:27When hot and cold meet, a hissing sound
27:08:29is heard and a pungent fumes rise up. As
27:08:32time goes by, the red hot sickle
27:08:34gradually cools and sets, eventually
27:08:37completing its forging process. Such
27:08:39Chanqing picked up the crescent-shaped
27:08:41sickle from the icy pool, examined it
27:08:43closely, and after a while said, "It's
27:08:45still missing a hammer. Actually, he
27:08:48didn't expect to succeed on his first
27:08:49forging attempt. Although it's just the
27:08:51most basic equipment, I have no
27:08:53experience whatsoever. Judging from the
27:08:55current situation, although it has not
27:08:57reached the top quality, its luster,
27:09:00hardness, toughness, and sharpness
27:09:02should be considered to be of average
27:09:04quality. Just then, Su Choning had a
27:09:06sudden thought and looked at the
27:09:07attribute panel. Forging skills,
27:09:10beginner effect one, loss rate reduced
27:09:12from 50% to 40%. Such Chanqing suddenly
27:09:16realized that although refining weapons
27:09:18was not like refining pills, one could
27:09:20not improve the quality of a weapon by
27:09:22using a pill formula. But if I succeed
27:09:24just once, I can master this skill. Once
27:09:26you get the hang of it, you can consume
27:09:28your lifespan to improve. To put it
27:09:30bluntly, you can fail countless times,
27:09:32but as long as you succeed just once,
27:09:35you'll take off. Should I sacrifice 5
27:09:37years of my lifespan to upgrade my
27:09:39forging skills to master level? Yes, Su
27:09:42Chongqing replied with great
27:09:44anticipation. In an instant, he was like
27:09:46a blacksmith's apprentice, starting from
27:09:48the basics and gradually improving his
27:09:50skills. Not long after, he emerged from
27:09:53the profound state of enlightenment and
27:09:55returned to normal. Remaining lifespan,
27:09:58701 years. Forging skill, masterful
27:10:01hands. Effect one, loss rate reduced to
27:10:0410%. Effect two, yield rate increased to
27:10:0790%. Effect three, the success rate of
27:10:10obtaining rare items increases to 80%.
27:10:14Special effect one, make the most of
27:10:16everything. Even the smallest scraps can
27:10:18be incorporated. Special effect two,
27:10:20innovation and renewal. Each successful
27:10:23forging process grants the object a
27:10:25special effect. Su Chongqing blinked. It
27:10:28seems all right. Forging is forging.
27:10:30Refining is refining. Forging is a skill
27:10:33that even ordinary people can master.
27:10:35Only weapon crafting is a skill that
27:10:37cultivators can master. In other words,
27:10:39if you successfully forge a piece for
27:10:41the first time, you will acquire the
27:10:43forging skill. That means that if you
27:10:45successfully refine a weapon on your
27:10:47first attempt, you will also gain the
27:10:48skill of weapon refining. In this way,
27:10:51he doesn't need to spend decades or even
27:10:53centuries accumulating experience like
27:10:55others. If you succeed just once, you
27:10:57can instantly become one of the most
27:10:59powerful weapon refiners in the entire
27:11:01cultivation world. Su Chonqing frowned.
27:11:04If that's the case, why hasn't The Art
27:11:06of Alchemy appeared? Is it because of my
27:11:08posture, or is there some other reason?
27:11:10From the previous Luang pill to last
27:11:12night's Jilling pill, they have all been
27:11:14of top quality. The Luwang pill in
27:11:17particular has been successful not just
27:11:19once, but many, many times. The Green
27:11:22Gourd now contains at least a hundred of
27:11:24them. Even after the foundation pill was
27:11:26successfully refined, the art of alchemy
27:11:28still did not emerge. This indicates
27:11:30that there must be some reason or
27:11:32something is incorrect. Such Chanqing
27:11:34thought and thought but still had no
27:11:36clue. Shaking his head, he didn't want
27:11:38to waste time and immediately focused
27:11:40his attention on the ordinary spiritual
27:11:42artifact mold. If the speculation is
27:11:45correct, as long as one weapon is
27:11:46successfully crafted once, one can
27:11:49obtain this skill that countless
27:11:50apprentices with gold and fire spiritual
27:11:52roots dream of. At that time, there will
27:11:55be no need to go to the forging peak to
27:11:56find blacksmiths like Zhuong. You can
27:11:59forge spiritual weapons and even magical
27:12:01artifacts yourself. As the saying goes,
27:12:04it's better to rely on yourself than on
27:12:06others. Chapter 196. The inscription of
27:12:09runes. Chapter 196. The inscription of
27:12:12rune sneer. A blue wooden needle in
27:12:14front of me broke in too, and the
27:12:16spiritual light that appeared on its
27:12:18surface was extinguished in an instant.
27:12:20Such Chongqing threw it into the nearby
27:12:22trash can, frowning as he said, failed
27:12:25again. This was his third attempt.
27:12:27Forging and refining are indeed worlds
27:12:29apart. When forging, as long as the
27:12:31temperature, material, and time are well
27:12:34controlled, it can be done with the help
27:12:35of molds. Even when crafting a basic
27:12:38wood attribute spiritual weapon like the
27:12:40Greenwood needle, one still encounters
27:12:42various problems. The first time, the
27:12:44released crimson flames were too hot and
27:12:46burned up. The second attempt to bring
27:12:48the temperature down failed after a few
27:12:50seconds of haste. Now on the third
27:12:53attempt, although the lessons learned
27:12:54from the previous two attempts had
27:12:56taught them the specific temperature and
27:12:58time, the jade carving knife applied too
27:13:00much force when carving the runes,
27:13:02causing it to split in two. Such
27:13:04Chongqing took a deep breath. It seems
27:13:06that forcibly refining spiritual
27:13:08artifacts won't work. I need to master
27:13:10the technique of inscribing runes before
27:13:12I can try again. Although there is a
27:13:14detailed explanation of spirit runes
27:13:16basics, but this thing explains spirit
27:13:19patterns, not runes. In simple terms,
27:13:21runes are equivalent to drawing symbols.
27:13:24To put it more deeply, it is a carrier
27:13:26that contains the laws of heaven and
27:13:28earth and spiritual energy. Some are
27:13:30symbols, some have patterns, some are
27:13:32patterns. The more complex and ancient
27:13:35the design, the greater its power. The
27:13:37most common entry-level spiritual
27:13:39weapon, the greenwood needle, only needs
27:13:41to be engraved with one rune, which is a
27:13:43very simple one, the windbreaking
27:13:45pattern. However, Su Chongqing did not
27:13:48possess the necessary skills or even
27:13:50understand them at all. He went ahead
27:13:52despite his lack of knowledge and the
27:13:54result could only be failure. Moreover,
27:13:56and most importantly, he lacks the metal
27:13:58spiritual route and therefore cannot
27:14:01achieve a subtle level of perception of
27:14:02the metallic materials within spiritual
27:14:04artifacts. The only way is through trial
27:14:07and error and through repeated
27:14:08judgments. Aoki needles are made from
27:14:11only two materials. One type is the
27:14:13green vine. One type is iron ingots. The
27:14:16former is fine as long as the quality
27:14:18lasts for more than a year. However, the
27:14:20latter, whether more or less, will
27:14:23significantly alter the quality of the
27:14:24magical artifact. For example, the third
27:14:27azure needle, although it had been
27:14:29forged from the mold, could be cut so
27:14:31easily, indicating that too little iron
27:14:33was added. Shaking his head, Su
27:14:36Chongqing cleaned up all the trash, then
27:14:38picked up the porcelain bowl next to him
27:14:40and walked towards the steps with some
27:14:41disappointment. When they returned to
27:14:43the ground, they found that it was
27:14:44already afternoon. Unexpectedly, I ended
27:14:47up spending several hours in the
27:14:49basement this time. He went to the
27:14:50balcony where the cold wind blew, and he
27:14:53gradually calmed down. The previous
27:14:55string of failures had left me somewhat
27:14:56disoriented. Of course, the success of
27:14:59forging the scythe led him to mistakenly
27:15:01believe that refining magical weapons
27:15:03was equally simple. They were thoroughly
27:15:05humiliated. No wonder most of the
27:15:07apprentices on the forging peak have the
27:15:09golden spirit route. There's a reason
27:15:11for that. If we cannot have a
27:15:12microscopic sensitivity to metallic
27:15:14materials, the cost of trial and error
27:15:17will be too high. As someone with a wood
27:15:19elemental root, Sue Chonqing naturally
27:15:21understood the properties of wood
27:15:23attribute materials. Moreover, because
27:15:25it has a fire elemental root, it does
27:15:27not require ordinary fire when refining.
27:15:30Once it's formed, its quality will
27:15:32definitely not be low. The problem lies
27:15:34in the absence of the key refining
27:15:36process. Golden spiritual root. Such
27:15:38Chongqing thought for a moment, and with
27:15:40a thought, a communication talisman
27:15:42appeared in his hand. He did not notify
27:15:45the owner of the talisman immediately.
27:15:47Instead, they carefully observed with
27:15:49their naked eyes while continuously
27:15:51scanning with their spiritual sense.
27:15:53Sure enough, even if it was just a
27:15:55seemingly ordinary, ubiquitous
27:15:57communication talisman. The runes on it
27:15:59are not simple. They are at least much
27:16:01more complex than the windbreaking rune.
27:16:03A wisp of wood elemental power was
27:16:05infused into it, and the communication
27:16:07talisman immediately began to flicker
27:16:10with a faint spiritual light. Two
27:16:12breaths later, a sound came from the
27:16:14other side. Hello, Binger. It's me, Such
27:16:17Choning. You finally found me. Ahem, I'd
27:16:20like to ask you something. What can I do
27:16:22for you? I've recently become very
27:16:24interested in runes and want to find
27:16:26some books to study them. Well, oh, um,
27:16:29a roasted sweet potato. Not enough.
27:16:31Three. Hei, I'll recommend a few to you
27:16:34right away. On the other end of the
27:16:36communication talisman by Linger's eyes
27:16:38flashed, revealing a triumphant smile.
27:16:41Then she earnestly recommended several
27:16:43books about runes. Rune origin. It tells
27:16:46the story of the origin, history, and
27:16:48evolution of runes. Basic runes. It
27:16:51covers all the basic runes of the
27:16:53immortal sect. Runes beginner's guide.
27:16:56It provides a very thorough explanation
27:16:57of the knowledge and skills that
27:16:59beginners should master. Although there
27:17:01are only three books by Linger's
27:17:03professionalism is evident. Such
27:17:05Chanqing asked impatiently, "Where
27:17:07should I buy it?" A sly glint flashed in
27:17:09by Linger's eyes. "Come to the Imperial
27:17:12Water Pavilion. I have it here." Su
27:17:14Chongqing thought for a moment and said,
27:17:16"It's a bit late today." By Linger
27:17:18quickly said, "It's not too late.
27:17:20It's<unk> not too late. If you come now,
27:17:22you'll just be able to run into the
27:17:24myriad fish formation, the thousand fish
27:17:27formation." Such Chongqing asked in
27:17:29confusion. By Linger explained, the
27:17:31Imperial Water Pavilion inscribed runes
27:17:33on the fish, thus giving it absolute
27:17:36control over Black Lake and all its
27:17:38tributaries. Such Chongqing<unk>s first
27:17:40reaction wasn't shock, but rather a
27:17:42raised eyebrow. What if these fish get
27:17:44caught? Binger said nonchalantly. So,
27:17:47what if I catch one? Anyway, the most
27:17:49common task in the Imperial Water
27:17:51Pavilion is to arrange for a novice
27:17:53talisman master to find a fish to
27:17:55inscribe runes. Everyone was eager to do
27:17:57it. Why? Not only can you easily get 20
27:18:00points, but you can also be rewarded
27:18:02with two low-grade spirit stones. Most
27:18:05importantly, it can improve your rune
27:18:06incription skills. Many novice talisman
27:18:09masters take this opportunity to
27:18:10practice. Su Choning took a deep breath.
27:18:13Okay, I'll be there in a bit. Okay,
27:18:16remember to let me know when you arrive.
27:18:18Binger ended the call proactively. After
27:18:20carefully putting away the communication
27:18:22token, Su Chongqing couldn't help but
27:18:24look up. The sky remained a hazy gray. I
27:18:27wonder when this snow will stop. It's
27:18:29quite a distance from Linton to Yushu
27:18:31Pavilion. It'll probably be midnight by
27:18:33the time we get back. He turned and went
27:18:35back to the stone house, went into the
27:18:37kitchen to prepare dinner, and roasted a
27:18:39few sweet potatoes as well. You can't go
27:18:41back on your promises. Half an hour
27:18:44later, the sky outside was getting
27:18:46darker and darker. Such Chonqing
27:18:48immediately mounted the large leaf grass
27:18:50and flew towards the direction of the
27:18:52Imperial Water Pavilion. There were
27:18:54hardly any people to be seen along the
27:18:56way. People are less inclined to go out
27:18:58in winter. As they flew over the area of
27:19:00the spirit field, tributaries gradually
27:19:03appeared. Good heavens, there are still
27:19:05anglers stubbornly holding on. The
27:19:07person was covered with a thick layer of
27:19:09snow. Yet, they remained unperturbed,
27:19:11seemingly oblivious to the situation.
27:19:14Such Chanqing was very curious and
27:19:16deliberately moved closer to ask,
27:19:17"Fellow Daist, did you catch any fish?"
27:19:20Upon hearing this, the other person
27:19:22raised their head and said rather
27:19:24smugly, "No." Su Chongqing was taken
27:19:26aback. "You're still smug about not
27:19:28having it." The fisherman grinned. "I'm
27:19:31the only one who persevered to the end."
27:19:33Chapter 197, Blue Sky gets beaten up.
27:19:36Chapter 197, Lion gets beaten upon
27:19:39hearing this. Such Chongqing lost
27:19:41interest in asking any further questions
27:19:43and continued flying towards the
27:19:45Imperial Water Pavilion. Just then, a
27:19:47male disciple flew in from the other
27:19:49side and respectfully called out to the
27:19:51fisherman who looked like an ice
27:19:53sculpture. Master. The fisherman glanced
27:19:56at him sideways. What is it? The male
27:19:58disciple hurriedly said, "Master, that
27:20:01guy named Masha has already run from the
27:20:03Imperial Water Pavilion to the Spirit
27:20:04Beast Valley, specifically challenging
27:20:07Chu Chio to a duel. No one can stop
27:20:09him." The fisherman scoffed. What do I
27:20:11care about the squables between the
27:20:12younger generation? The male disciples
27:20:15expression changed slightly and he
27:20:17whispered a reminder. Didn't the valley
27:20:19master ask you to manage the spirit
27:20:21beast valley well before attending the
27:20:22nanuang banquet? So many annoying things
27:20:25happening every day. They just keep me
27:20:27from fishing. The fisherman looked
27:20:29annoyed, but he disappeared without a
27:20:31trace in the blink of an eye. After a
27:20:33few breaths, the snow that had been
27:20:34covering him began to fall
27:20:36uncontrollably.
27:20:38On the other side, Su Chongqing
27:20:39approached Black Lake again. We can
27:20:41already see the ninestory Imperial Water
27:20:43Pavilion which is formed by the
27:20:45condensation of water. Because of the
27:20:47freezing weather, many tributaries are
27:20:49frozen. But here, the Black Lake water
27:20:52remained unchanged. Forget about
27:20:54freezing. You can't even see a single
27:20:56snowflake. Whoosh! Splash! As Such Chan
27:21:00continued to approach, he suddenly heard
27:21:02the sound of the lake water rippling
27:21:03below. He hurly looked down to check.
27:21:06The water surface churned and boiled
27:21:08with thousands of fish tails shattering
27:21:10the ripples. Red carp emerged from the
27:21:12waves. The silver carp leaped out of the
27:21:14water. Grass carp, Christian carp, fish
27:21:17I recognize, fish I don't recognize.
27:21:20They all emerged from the black lake
27:21:22numbering at least tens of thousands.
27:21:24They sometimes dash forward. Sometimes
27:21:26it circles clockwise. It seems to be
27:21:28following some kind of pattern.
27:21:30Moreover, without exception, all of
27:21:32these fish have identical runes engraved
27:21:34on their surfaces. Any angller who sees
27:21:36this scene would probably never want to
27:21:38leave. Compared to the dumbfounded Su
27:21:40Chongqing, the surrounding Yushua
27:21:42Pavilion disciples were already used to
27:21:44it. This scenario doesn't happen every
27:21:47day, but the myriad fish formation will
27:21:49be automatically triggered whenever
27:21:50there's something unusual about the
27:21:52black tortoise or the tongue snake
27:21:54underwater. Su Chongqing used his
27:21:56spiritual sense to scan, attempting to
27:21:58imprint it. But for some reason, I just
27:22:00couldn't succeed. Although these runes
27:22:02look exactly the same upon closer
27:22:04inspection, you'll find that the runes
27:22:06are interconnected, creating a very
27:22:09mysterious effect. The water elemental
27:22:11energy here has become much denser.
27:22:13Seeing this, Such Chanqing had no choice
27:22:16but to abandon the idea of branding and
27:22:18head directly to the Imperial Water
27:22:20Pavilion. Upon reaching the entrance, he
27:22:22immediately took out by Linger's
27:22:24communication talisman. Hello, I have
27:22:26arrived. Wait a moment. I'll be right
27:22:29there to pick you up. The communication
27:22:31was very brief. After all, the two are
27:22:33about to meet, so there's no need to
27:22:35waste their spiritual energy here.
27:22:37Something terrible has happened. That's
27:22:39the blue sky. Oh dear, it's a complete
27:22:41disaster. Such Chongqing was waiting for
27:22:44by Linger with disciples of the Imperial
27:22:46Water Pavilion passing by from time to
27:22:48time. You can always hear news about the
27:22:50blue sky from these people. They all
27:22:52looked quite excited, even shocked. They
27:22:55all ran towards the Imperial Water
27:22:56Pavilion as fast as they could. Su
27:22:59Chonqing saw this and was curious, but
27:23:01because he was an outsider, he couldn't
27:23:03go in for the time being. Fortunately,
27:23:05Bilinger didn't keep him waiting too
27:23:07long. It appeared very quickly. Today,
27:23:10she was wearing a plain colored ruin, a
27:23:12type of traditional Chinese dress. The
27:23:14style is quite elegant. However, she is
27:23:17still so lively and cute. You've finally
27:23:19arrived. Su Chongqing breed a sigh of
27:23:21relief. Binger chuckled and explained
27:23:24briefly. I just happened to run into my
27:23:26father when I went out. Su Chongqing
27:23:28flipped his hand and three roasted sweet
27:23:30potatoes appeared out of thin air. He
27:23:33handed them over while asking, "It's so
27:23:35lively inside. What happened?"
27:23:37Bilinger's eyes lit up when she saw the
27:23:39roasted sweet potato. She quickly picked
27:23:41it up with both hands and replied, "Lon
27:23:43tion, who is ranked first among the
27:23:45formal disciples of Yushu Pavilion, was
27:23:48beaten up today." No, to be precise, he
27:23:50was beaten up. Such Chan was surprised.
27:23:53There don't seem to be many people who
27:23:55can defeat Lion, right? Binger munched
27:23:58on a roasted sweet potato and mumbled,
27:24:00"It seems to be someone named Mocha."
27:24:02"Moka?" Su Chongqing vaguely remembered
27:24:05this name. Xiao Ziua and senior brother
27:24:07Chu have both mentioned this before.
27:24:09This person was born in the northern
27:24:11desert and awakened three spiritual
27:24:13roots, wood, fire, and earth. It is said
27:24:16that he has already mastered the
27:24:18advanced blazing fire technique to its
27:24:21maximum level. Among all the foundation
27:24:23establishment stage disciples of the
27:24:25immortal sect, his strength ranks among
27:24:27the top and even Chu Chio is wary of
27:24:29him. Unexpectedly, Lon Tion was targeted
27:24:32by this person. Su Chongqing then
27:24:34followed by Linger into the Imperial
27:24:36Water Pavilion. The first floor is
27:24:38filled with many disciples with water
27:24:40elemental roots, including some talisman
27:24:42master apprentices. Everyone was talking
27:24:45about how Lanton got beaten up by the
27:24:47motorcycles today. It's clear that the
27:24:49impact is significant. This motorbike is
27:24:51absolutely lawless. The people of the
27:24:54northern regions are truly devoid of any
27:24:56manners. This is not over. We, the
27:24:59people of Yua Pavilion, share the same
27:25:01fate, whether it is one of us or the
27:25:03other. That's right. If they dare to
27:25:05beat up Lion today, they'll dare to beat
27:25:07up me tomorrow. You dare to challenge
27:25:10me? For a time, the first floor of
27:25:12Yushua Pavilion was filled with smoke
27:25:14and fumes. The situation only calmed
27:25:17down after the manager intervened. Su
27:25:19Chongqing scanned the area but didn't
27:25:21see Lion. The other party shouldn't be
27:25:23here. Binger waved her hand. Come on, my
27:25:26father is on the third floor. Su
27:25:28Chongqing nodded. Okay. Then the two
27:25:31stepped up the steps formed by the
27:25:33water. When we arrived on the second
27:25:34floor, we immediately saw the blue sky.
27:25:37At this moment, he was surrounded by a
27:25:39group of people. Among them were Huan,
27:25:42Shir Gandang, Ryan, and Jian Hanin, whom
27:25:45I had met before. In addition, there are
27:25:47some high-ranking formal disciples in
27:25:49the Imperial Water Pavilion. Their
27:25:51expressions were all filled with anger.
27:25:53Such Chongqing squinted and took a
27:25:55closer look and found that the blue sky
27:25:57looked truly miserable. His once
27:25:59handsome face is now swollen like a
27:26:01pig's head. His body was covered in
27:26:03wounds with burn marks everywhere. There
27:26:06was even a trace of fear remaining in
27:26:08his eyes. Clearly, this battle with
27:26:10Masha must have left him with a
27:26:11lingering trauma. But the more this
27:26:13happened, the more curious Su Chongqing
27:26:15became about this person named Mocha.
27:26:18Doing this will offend more than just
27:26:19the blue sky. Judging from the reactions
27:26:21of the disciples of the Imperial Water
27:26:23Pavilion, everyone is very angry. Unless
27:26:26Masha no longer needs runes, talismans
27:26:29or incantations. Otherwise, things could
27:26:32get out of hand after this commotion.
27:26:34Binger said gloatingly. This is the
27:26:36first time I've seen Lon Tion look so
27:26:38miserable. Such Chaning asked in a low
27:26:41voice. Don't you two get along well?
27:26:43Binger blinked her big watery eyes. How
27:26:46should I put it? I always feel that this
27:26:48person is very hypocritical. Upon
27:26:50hearing this, Su Chongqing was quite
27:26:52surprised. He had the same feeling when
27:26:54he first saw the blue sky. This person
27:26:56always had a kind smile on his face. He
27:26:59will nod in response when others greet
27:27:00him, but deep in his eyes there was a
27:27:03profound indifference. This shows that
27:27:05Lion looks down on people who are
27:27:07inferior to him from the bottom of his
27:27:09heart. Chapter 198. The promised day.
27:27:12Chapter 198. The appointed day arrived
27:27:14quickly. Su Chongqing followed by Linger
27:27:17to the third floor of the Imperial Water
27:27:18Pavilion. As soon as I came up here, I
27:27:21felt like I was in a completely
27:27:22different world from downstairs. The
27:27:24third floor is larger than I imagined.
27:27:26It consisted of rows of numbered rooms
27:27:29such as 301. I thought it was a
27:27:31residential area, but it turned out to
27:27:32be a floor specifically for making
27:27:34talismans. It seems that these
27:27:36cultivators with water elemental roots
27:27:38separate their work and life. Everyone
27:27:40on this floor is either a talisman
27:27:42master or a family member of a talisman
27:27:45master by linger by jour. One is in the
27:27:47late stage ofqi refining and the other
27:27:50is in the early stage of foundation
27:27:52establishment. Logically speaking, they
27:27:54shouldn't be qualified to enter the
27:27:56third floor of the imperial water
27:27:57pavilion. But they have a good father, a
27:27:59highle talisman master who has reached
27:28:01the foundation establishment stage. That
27:28:04is why the two women can come and go
27:28:05freely without being affected in any
27:28:07way. Soon, Su Chongqing met by Linger's
27:28:10father. This person's name is by Shaian.
27:28:13Beneath his sword-like eyebrows were a
27:28:15pair of sharp cold eyes. Years of
27:28:17drawing runes have made his hands have
27:28:19distinct joints, and even his palms are
27:28:21soaked in ink. He was wearing a dark
27:28:24colored robe with cloud patterns, and
27:28:25the hem was embroidered with wave-shaped
27:28:27water patterns. Overall, it gives people
27:28:30a calm and reserved feeling. Judging
27:28:32from her appearance, she should be
27:28:34around 40 or 50 years old. For
27:28:36cultivators, this age is not old and may
27:28:39even be considered quite young. Binger
27:28:41skipped and hopped forward. Father Su
27:28:43Chongqing followed closely behind
27:28:46quickly cupping his hands in a
27:28:47respectful bow. Seen nearby
27:28:50glanced at his youngest daughter and saw
27:28:52that her mouth was covered in food. He
27:28:54felt a headache coming on. Can't you
27:28:56wipe your mouth? Other people's
27:28:58daughters are either making progress or
27:29:00on their way to making progress. My own
27:29:02youngest daughter is either sneaking
27:29:04food or on her way to sneaking food.
27:29:06Although he has made progress in drawing
27:29:08talismans, he is still a long way from
27:29:10becoming a talisman master. Fortunately,
27:29:12his eldest daughter is doing well and is
27:29:14now a junior alchemist, so he doesn't
27:29:16have to worry about her. By Linger
27:29:18retorted confidently, you wipe it after
27:29:20eating only half of your meal. You by
27:29:23Shaon almost blushed to calm himself
27:29:26down. He simply shifted his gaze to Su
27:29:28Chongqing and looked him up and down
27:29:30with a scrutinizing look. You're<unk>
27:29:31the ling nong that linger often
27:29:33mentions, the one who cooks so well.
27:29:35Yuis, Su Chaning nodded. By Shaian asked
27:29:39curiously, why are you? With a wood
27:29:41elemental root, suddenly interested in
27:29:43runes. Such Chanqing explained, "As my
27:29:46number of spiritual fields increases and
27:29:48my strength improves, I need to use
27:29:50runes for almost everything, whether
27:29:52it's formations or spiritual artifacts.
27:29:54So I want to learn more about them. By
27:29:56Shaian nodded slightly. It seems that
27:29:58you are a person who is eager to
27:30:00improve. That's good. I admire people
27:30:02like that. Upon hearing this, Su Chan
27:30:05felt that there was something more to
27:30:06the other person's words. At this
27:30:08moment, Binger stood on tiptoe and waved
27:30:11her dirty right hand in front of her
27:30:12father's eyes. Father, where's the book?
27:30:15By Shaian looked down and asked, why
27:30:17don't you just send a few books? Why do
27:30:19you want me to annotate them myself? By
27:30:21Linger retorted confidently once again.
27:30:23How could a wood elemental spirit farmer
27:30:25understand it without annotations? By
27:30:28Shaian was stunned. He opened his mouth
27:30:30but couldn't say a word. It wasn't that
27:30:32he was angry, but rather that he
27:30:34suddenly realized there seemed to be a
27:30:36tiny bit of truth to it. Such Chongqing
27:30:38stood to the side, his expression
27:30:40already betraying his barely suppressed
27:30:42emotions. After a while, Bisha came to
27:30:45his senses, then flicked his sleeve, and
27:30:48several books about runes appeared in
27:30:49his hand. Take these. Binger took it,
27:30:53turned around, and presented it to Su
27:30:54Chongqing as if to claim credit. He I
27:30:57kept my word. Su Chongqing bowed again,
27:31:00saying, "Thank you, senior by Thank you,
27:31:03Ling." After expressing his gratitude,
27:31:06he finally took the book into his hands.
27:31:08He looked down and saw that it was
27:31:10covered with the marks of time, and even
27:31:12the titles of the books were blurred. It
27:31:14seems that Basha will take it out and
27:31:16look at it from time to time. That is
27:31:18why one can become a highle talisman
27:31:20master during the foundation
27:31:21establishment stage. He probably
27:31:23dedicated half his life to the art of
27:31:25runes. Suddenly by Shaian waved his hand
27:31:28and said, "You can go now." Su Chongqing
27:31:31bowed for the third time. "All right,
27:31:33I'll head back to the spirit field now."
27:31:35Before leaving, he took out several
27:31:37kinds of food and gave them to Binger.
27:31:39I'm so grateful to them this time. If
27:31:41these books were taken out, they would
27:31:43definitely be snatched up by apprentices
27:31:45with water elemental roots. She only
27:31:47turned and left when she could carry no
27:31:49more. Returning from the third floor to
27:31:51the second floor, I noticed that there
27:31:53were far fewer people here. It seems
27:31:55that all the formal disciples from
27:31:56earlier have left, including Hwan and
27:31:59the others. There were only three
27:32:01people. One is Blue Sky, which is
27:32:03seriously injured. One of them is the
27:32:05manager of the Imperial Water Pavilion.
27:32:07There was another one who appeared to be
27:32:09a female doctor. They paid no attention
27:32:11to passers by, not even glancing at
27:32:13them. Seeing this, Su Chongqing stopped
27:32:16watching and quickly went to the first
27:32:17floor of the Imperial Water Pavilion.
27:32:19Sure enough, even the number of water
27:32:21elemental disciples gathered here has
27:32:23decreased. Although some people were
27:32:25still discussing the blue sky and the
27:32:27motorcycle, their emotions were much
27:32:29more stable than before. Su Chongqing
27:32:32observed this and thought to himself,
27:32:33"This Masha probably wants to test the
27:32:35strength of his opponents before the
27:32:37formal disciple competition begins. and
27:32:39maybe even take down a few in advance.
27:32:42Someone like Lion, although he is the
27:32:44number one formal disciple of Yushu,
27:32:47sounds very impressive, but you should
27:32:49know that he has already been defeated
27:32:50by several people. One of them was
27:32:52Chuchio. Therefore, if Masha still wants
27:32:55to take on more challenges, his next
27:32:56destination is likely to be the Valley
27:32:59of Spirit Beasts. Thinking of this, Su
27:33:01Chongqing quickly walked out of the
27:33:03Imperial Water Pavilion and then took
27:33:05out Chu Chio<unk>'s communication
27:33:06talisman. I wanted to notify them in
27:33:08advance so they could prepare. As a
27:33:10result, the other side didn't react at
27:33:12all. Seeing this, Su Chongqing roughly
27:33:15guessed what was going on. He put away
27:33:17Chu Chio<unk>'s communication talisman
27:33:19and then summoned the big leaf grass. Of
27:33:21course, it wasn't to go to Spirit Beast
27:33:23Valley to check on the situation.
27:33:25Instead, they went home. If you can
27:33:27notify them, then notify them. It
27:33:29doesn't matter if we don't get notified.
27:33:31After all, he was just an ordinary
27:33:33spiritual farmer. He neither wanted to
27:33:35participate in the formal disciple
27:33:37competition nor wanted to get involved
27:33:39in this controversy. Honestly, farming
27:33:41and gradually increasing lifespan and
27:33:43strength is better than anything else.
27:33:46An hour later, Su Chongqing returned
27:33:48home. Wong Wong, Pearl Chicken,
27:33:50Fortress, and five fire crows have
27:33:52already rested. Seeing this, he did not
27:33:55disturb them, but went to the study, lit
27:33:57the glass lamp, and planned to look at
27:33:59the books that By Shaoan had annotated.
27:34:01When the first book of rune origins was
27:34:03opened, a rich aroma of paper and ink
27:34:06wafted out. The first page is the table
27:34:08of contents. I, origin of runes, the
27:34:11manifestation of the laws of heaven and
27:34:13earth. Two, ancient period, the initial
27:34:16formation of the rune system. Three,
27:34:19medieval transformation, the
27:34:20popularization of talisman paper and low
27:34:23tier runes. Four, early modern
27:34:25development, the integration of runes
27:34:27with artifacts and formations. The
27:34:29contents are not complicated. With by
27:34:31Shiaoyian<unk>s annotations, it becomes
27:34:33even more accessible and easier to
27:34:35understand. Normally, Su Chongqing would
27:34:38use his spiritual sense to scan and
27:34:40directly imprint the information into
27:34:42his mind, forming a memory. But this
27:34:45time, he kept watching, even becoming
27:34:47engrossed. Time flew by, and the day I
27:34:50had agreed to meet with senior sister,
27:34:52you arrived. Thinking that the other
27:34:54party might be so engrossed in alchemy
27:34:56that he forgot to eat and sleep, Such
27:34:58Chongqing specially prepared a sumptuous
27:35:00spiritual meal and then rode the large
27:35:02leaf grass towards the Earth Fire Zone.
27:35:04Chapter 199. Where do you live? Chapter
27:35:07199. Where is your home? Earthfire zone
27:35:10hill tower. Such Chanching came here
27:35:12again. Since the security guards all
27:35:14recognized him, he didn't need to wait
27:35:16for a guaranter. He registered his
27:35:18information and went inside. The
27:35:20internal alchemy tasting ceremony has
27:35:22ended and the place has returned to its
27:35:24usual tranquility. Occasionally, one
27:35:26might spot an alchemist, but they always
27:35:28seem to be in a hurry. The journey was
27:35:31smooth, and Su Chongqing arrived at 97
27:35:33without any obstacles. It is UT<unk>s
27:35:36private alchemy room, number seven, on
27:35:38the 9th underground floor. The heavy
27:35:40stone door was tightly shut, and no
27:35:42sound could be heard from inside. Such
27:35:44Chanqing flicked his wrist and
27:35:46Yuda<unk>s communication talisman
27:35:48appeared as the wood elemental power was
27:35:50infused into it. A faint spiritual light
27:35:53began to flicker. A full minute passed
27:35:55and Yukaiing still hadn't answered. This
27:35:58made Su Chongqing somewhat worried.
27:36:00Could it be that something happened
27:36:01inside? Filled with doubt and
27:36:03skepticism, he tried again. This time,
27:36:05the connection was finally established
27:36:07after 10 breaths. A weary voice came
27:36:10from the other end of the line from
27:36:11Yukai Ching. Hello, senior sister. you.
27:36:14I've come as promised. Okay, I
27:36:16understand. Just a moment. Su Chongqing
27:36:19breathed a sigh of relief as he put down
27:36:21the other party's communication token.
27:36:23It seems my worries were unnecessary. I
27:36:25reckon senior sister, you didn't notice
27:36:27it just now. After a while, the heavy
27:36:30stone door slowly opened. Immediately
27:36:32afterwards, a thick cloud of hot steam
27:36:34billowed out from within. This wasn't
27:36:36the first time Su Chongqing had
27:36:38witnessed this scene. It was the same
27:36:40whenever someone was refining pills. So,
27:36:42he didn't pay any attention and simply
27:36:44walked in. But halfway there, the
27:36:46originally scorching temperature
27:36:47suddenly turned into a chilling cold,
27:36:50which spread throughout my body in an
27:36:52instant, as if it were freezing my body.
27:36:54What's going on? Such Choning<unk>s
27:36:56expression changed slightly. The hot fog
27:36:58met the cold air and instantly turned
27:37:00into raindrops. It started to fall. Tick
27:37:03tock. At first glance, it sounds like
27:37:05rain. Fortunately, the fog finally
27:37:07dissipated. Taking this opportunity, Su
27:37:10Chongqing got a clear look at the
27:37:11situation in front of him. The orange
27:37:13fire was burning fiercely like a
27:37:15restless fire serpent. The Shiening
27:37:17cauldron above was covered with a layer
27:37:19of glistening frost. As for Yukaiing
27:37:22beside her, she looked quite weak and
27:37:24her eyes were slightly dim. Even so, she
27:37:27still maintained a shimming cauldron and
27:37:28the earth fire. Such Chanqing approached
27:37:31cautiously and asked in a low voice,
27:37:33"Senior sister, are you all right?"
27:37:35After a long while, Yukiing said in a
27:37:38muffled voice, "I won't die." "Huh?"
27:37:40Such Chongqing was stunned. Yuka took a
27:37:43breath and continued, "I have not rested
27:37:45for 6 days and six nights in order to
27:37:47refine this batch of Inyang intertwined
27:37:50pills. Feeling hungry? Time for a Loang
27:37:53Wan, a traditional Chinese medicine for
27:37:55strengthening the body. Feeling sleepy?
27:37:57Take a waking pill. As for the Kingdon,
27:37:59it was eaten like food." Su
27:38:01Chongqing<unk>s eyes widened. "Is it
27:38:03that hard?" Yukaiing frowned slightly.
27:38:06You can just watch from the side. Su
27:38:08Chongqing thought for a moment and then
27:38:10asked, "Then when do you take a break?"
27:38:12Yuka frowned and said, "What does it
27:38:14have to do with you whether I take a
27:38:16break or not?" As Su Chongqing explained
27:38:19with a smile, he took something out of
27:38:20his pocket. It's like this. I specially
27:38:23prepared some spiritual food. I simply
27:38:25am. Yukai was in a bad mood. So, her
27:38:28attitude was a bit poor. She wanted to
27:38:30vent her anger, but she was attracted by
27:38:32a fragrance and was stunned. This is
27:38:34Sichuan peppercorn flavored brazed pork
27:38:37ribs with rice. This is a spirit pepper
27:38:39beast meat egg roll. This is a sweet
27:38:41rice wine with egg drop soup. This is
27:38:45Such Chan pulled out six dishes in one
27:38:47go, all of them fresh, fragrant, and
27:38:49delicious. Yukaiing stared, her eyes
27:38:52wide, and couldn't help but lick her
27:38:54lips. You did all of this? Such Choning
27:38:57nodded. Yes, I made them all myself.
27:39:00Utaing<unk>s neck immediately turned
27:39:02red, her cheeks burned, and she felt
27:39:04extremely ashamed. Someone kindly cooked
27:39:07her a delicious meal, and she responded
27:39:09with such a terrible attitude. Ordinary
27:39:11food would not even be glanced at, but
27:39:13this is spiritual food. Not only is it
27:39:16delicious, but it also contains all
27:39:18sorts of amazing effects. Su Chongqing
27:39:21was surprised to see the other person
27:39:22suddenly fall silent. "Don't you like
27:39:24it?" Yukaing said in a voice barely
27:39:27louder than a mosquito's buzz. It's It's
27:39:29all right. However, we are currently at
27:39:32a crucial stage in refining the Inyong
27:39:34intertwining pill. You can't be
27:39:35distracted. You can't rest. Therefore,
27:39:38no matter how tempting the spiritual
27:39:40food may be, she remained steadfast in
27:39:42her resolve and continued refining the
27:39:44elixir, not daring to let her guard
27:39:46down. He kept repeating to himself,
27:39:48"It'll be soon. It'll be soon." Such
27:39:51Chongqing stopped speaking and stared
27:39:53silently. As time ticked by, the battle
27:39:56between the Shining Cauldron and the
27:39:58Earth Fire intensified. This Inyong
27:40:00intertwined pill is no ordinary pill. It
27:40:03contains both in and Yong energies.
27:40:05Taking it can harmonize the in and Yong
27:40:08in the body, allowing the body to return
27:40:10to the initial stage, similar to that of
27:40:12a fetus. Utai's purpose in refining this
27:40:15pill was to break free from her own
27:40:17limitations. Once successful, you can
27:40:20then try for the golden elixir. She
27:40:22didn't care about either her character
27:40:23or her personality. Any golden elixir
27:40:26will do. Ph. The intense heat of the
27:40:29earth fire and the chilling cold of the
27:40:31Shinming cauldron alternated. Faced with
27:40:33this situation, even Su Chongqing, who
27:40:36was in the midfoundation establishment
27:40:38stage and possessed two kinds of
27:40:40spiritual roots, was finding it
27:40:42difficult to withstand. It's easy to
27:40:44imagine how distressed you Kai- Ching,
27:40:46who was closest to the victim. But she
27:40:48persisted. Buzz, buzz. Just then, the
27:40:51Shiing Cauldron roared and then shook
27:40:53violently. The two people in the alchemy
27:40:55room were stunned by this sudden turn of
27:40:57events. With a loud boom, the lid of the
27:41:00Shinming cauldron soared into the air,
27:41:02and the Yin and Yang energies inside
27:41:04completely spiraled out of control. In
27:41:06that instant, the Shinming cauldron
27:41:08resonated with the Ein energy,
27:41:10unleashing a surging cold wave that
27:41:12instantly froze even the earth fire that
27:41:14was originally resisting it. Immediately
27:41:16afterwards, the ground and walls were
27:41:18covered with a layer of frost at a speed
27:41:20visible to the naked eye. Seeing that
27:41:22Yukaiing was not moving, Su Chongqing
27:41:25ignored the spirit food, rushed behind
27:41:27her, grabbed her, and ran towards the
27:41:30door of the alchemy room. Fortunately,
27:41:32this loss of control of In and Yong only
27:41:34affected the Shinming cauldron and the
27:41:36area around the Earth fire and did not
27:41:38spread to the entire alchemy room.
27:41:41However, it seems that this alchemy room
27:41:43is now abandoned. Su Chongqing led Yukai
27:41:45Ching to the door and immediately
27:41:47triggered the mechanism button on the
27:41:49wall and the heavy stone door slowly
27:41:51opened. What just happened? I reckon it
27:41:53exploded. Ordinary pills shouldn't cause
27:41:56such a commotion. After the two came
27:41:58out, they found several alchemists
27:42:00looking in their direction. Such
27:42:01Chongqing asked with concern. "Senior
27:42:04sister, are you all right?" Yukaiing
27:42:06appeared distraught, muttering to
27:42:07herself, "Failed? It's a complete
27:42:10failure. It just failed so suddenly.
27:42:12Everything was normal just now. They've
27:42:14already lasted 6 days and six nights.
27:42:16Senior sister, you su Chongqing grabbed
27:42:19her frail and cold shoulders and shook
27:42:21her violently." At this moment, Yukai
27:42:24finally came to her senses. She stared
27:42:26blankly at her business partner in front
27:42:28of her and then turned her head without
27:42:30saying a word to look into the alchemy
27:42:32room. As expected, the oven exploded.
27:42:34The shimming cauldron was completely
27:42:36destroyed. The repair time will be at
27:42:38least 1 month. In an instant, two
27:42:40streams of tears flowed down youths
27:42:43cheeks. Su Chongqing gently comforted
27:42:45her. Senior sister, it's just one
27:42:47failure. I have the materials. Let's
27:42:50rest for a while and then continue.
27:42:52Yukaing shook her head. You don't
27:42:54understand. The reason why this alchemy
27:42:56failed was not just due to a lack of
27:42:58experience and skills. Su Chonqing was
27:43:00very curious. What do you mean? Yukaing
27:43:03took a deep breath. It should be related
27:43:05to my spiritual root. Spiritual root?
27:43:08Suching was quite surprised. Yukaiing
27:43:11said sadly, "I originally had dual
27:43:13spiritual roots of water and fire, but
27:43:15when I was young, I accidentally touched
27:43:18this ice hairpin on my head, and then my
27:43:20water spiritual root mutated into an ice
27:43:22water spiritual root. That's why he
27:43:24wasn't accepted as a core disciple." Su
27:43:26Chongqing still didn't understand. But
27:43:29what does this have to do with the
27:43:30failure of alchemy? Yuka explained, "The
27:43:33Inyong intertwining pill is unlike other
27:43:35pills. It requires a balance of yin and
27:43:38yang. If either side is too strong or
27:43:40too weak, it won't work. Su Chongqing
27:43:43suddenly realized, "So that means your
27:43:44fire elemental route is being suppressed
27:43:46by your ice and water elemental route."
27:43:49Yuka nodded. Yes. Such Choning pondered.
27:43:53There must be a solution, right? Yu
27:43:55Kaiing pulled the ice hairpin off her
27:43:56head and stared at it with a complicated
27:43:58look in her eyes. I originally hoped
27:44:00that it could speed up the mutation of
27:44:02the water spirit route, but now it seems
27:44:04that it will take a long time. Perhaps I
27:44:07will have to find some rare and precious
27:44:08materials. Rare and precious materials.
27:44:11Upon hearing this, Su Chongqing took out
27:44:14the ice soul pearl. Is this what senior
27:44:16sister is talking about? You You Kai
27:44:18Ching was dumbfounded upon seeing this.
27:44:21Su Chongqing casually made up an excuse.
27:44:23This is something I acquired by chance.
27:44:25If you need it, I'll sell it to you at
27:44:27the current market price. You gazed at
27:44:30the ice soul pearl, which emitted a
27:44:32mesmerizing blue light and suddenly
27:44:34smiled. You really are my lucky star.
27:44:37Then she took out a pile of mid-grade
27:44:39spirit stones. How many? A full 500. Su
27:44:42Chongqing<unk>s eyes were dazzled. Seen
27:44:44your sister. You are so rich and
27:44:47beautiful. You Kaiing took the ice soul
27:44:49pearl in her hand and waved her hand.
27:44:51With this one, I don't need to look for
27:44:53it outside. Of course, I'll give you
27:44:55more. Su Chonqing immediately patted his
27:44:58chest and said, "From now on, my senior
27:45:01sister's affairs are my affairs."
27:45:03Yuda<unk>s almond-shaped eyes were
27:45:05bright and alluring like dew drops in
27:45:07the spring mist. She asked softly,
27:45:09"Where do you live?" Chapter 200,
27:45:12refining techniques, beginner's guide.
27:45:14Wishing everyone a happy and healthy
27:45:16dragon bow festival. Chapter 200,
27:45:18Refining Techniques, Beginner's Guide.
27:45:21Wishing everyone a happy Dragon Bow
27:45:22Festival. In the middle of the night, Su
27:45:25Chongqing returned to the Stonehouse.
27:45:27Before parting, Yukaiing said that she
27:45:29would come to Lintian to find him after
27:45:31she finished dealing with the matters of
27:45:32the pill tower. The specific time was
27:45:35not mentioned. He didn't say what he was
27:45:36going to do. Su Chongqing was somewhat
27:45:38surprised by this, but he didn't ask any
27:45:41further questions. He remained in the
27:45:43study reading books about runes.
27:45:45Although one can use their spiritual
27:45:46sense to imprint the information above
27:45:48into their memory, but the specific
27:45:51meaning and implications still need to
27:45:53be understood personally. Time flies and
27:45:56the day has come when the spiritual
27:45:57plants mature. Before them lay golden
27:46:00mutated spirit rice, except for the
27:46:02mutated mother rice, which remained
27:46:04largely unchanged in size, all the
27:46:06mutated daughter rice had grown to 2 m
27:46:08tall. The sunlight was fairly abundant,
27:46:11coupled with the forced growth of the
27:46:12lotus seedlings in the Chinglan field.
27:46:15This makes them look much more robust
27:46:17now compared to when they lived in the
27:46:18Rocky Mountains. Shining with golden
27:46:21light, the aroma is enticing. Each
27:46:23mutated rice plant has six heavy ears of
27:46:26rice hanging on it. In particular, there
27:46:28were as many as 12 of those centered
27:46:30around the cultivation of mutated mother
27:46:32rice. This is because the mother rice
27:46:34has a special effect after undergoing
27:46:36two mutations. It's called double
27:46:38production. Any rice planted within a tu
27:46:41jang radius of it will increase its
27:46:42yield, specifically in the number of
27:46:44rice ears. Mutant rice, mature,
27:46:47undamaged, abundant spiritual energy
27:46:50yield 520.
27:46:52Su Chongqing scanned the area with his
27:46:54spiritual sense and found that it was
27:46:56roughly in line with his previous
27:46:58prediction. One moo of second grade
27:47:00spiritual field can be used to plant a
27:47:02total of 1081 mutated spiritual rice
27:47:05plants including mutated mother rice.
27:47:07Its yield is approximately between 400
27:47:10and 600 gene. The main reason is that
27:47:12the yield of the miraculous rice within
27:47:14a two jang radius of the mutated mother
27:47:16rice will double. Immediately, Su
27:47:18Chongqing brandished the sickle he had
27:47:20forged himself. Harvesting one mutant
27:47:22rice plant increases its lifespan by 10
27:47:25days. Harvesting 500 mutant rice plants
27:47:28increases lifespan by 500 days. 1080
27:47:32mutant rice plants were harvested with a
27:47:34lifespan increased by 10,800 days. This
27:47:38harvest adds 29 years to the lifespan.
27:47:41Current remaining lifespan 730 years.
27:47:44Before long, only the mutated mother
27:47:46rice in front of us remained. Such
27:47:49Chanqing had no intention of severely
27:47:51destroying it since he needed it to
27:47:53double its production. Therefore, simply
27:47:55break off the nine golden ears of rice
27:47:57on top. He was still a little
27:47:59unaccustomed to the empty second moo of
27:48:01spiritual field. I couldn't help but
27:48:03sigh at how fast time flies. But this
27:48:06time, they did not take out the mutated
27:48:08rice seedlings to continue planting.
27:48:10First, it requires slash and burn
27:48:12agriculture. Two, fertilization is
27:48:14required. Three, Chinese New Year is a
27:48:17few days away. Therefore, Su Chongqing
27:48:19plans to plant after the new year. He
27:48:21has already made plans. The first MO of
27:48:23spiritual land will continue to be
27:48:25planted with top quality spiritual rice.
27:48:28The second MO of spirit field will then
27:48:29be used to cultivate mutated spirit
27:48:31rice. The third MO of spiritual land
27:48:34will be used to grow some melons,
27:48:35fruits, and other food ingredients. This
27:48:38is the best option right now. First, the
27:48:40annual assessment tasks of the immortal
27:48:42sect must be completed. Secondly, an
27:48:45additional 800 gene should be sent to
27:48:47Leiling by. In addition, Hubu received a
27:48:50dividend of 150 gene. Hanu was paid 50
27:48:54gene of millet for loosening the soil.
27:48:56The remaining portion will be used to
27:48:57brew more wine. Therefore, the first moo
27:49:00of spiritual land is equivalent to a
27:49:02minimum guarantee. If we don't plant the
27:49:04spirit rice, we can only consume our
27:49:06existing stock. The importance of the
27:49:08second MOO of spiritual land is
27:49:10self-evident. As for why the third MOO
27:49:12of spiritual land was chosen to be
27:49:14planted with melons and fruits, this is
27:49:17because the formal disciple competition
27:49:19will begin after the start of spring,
27:49:21allowing franchises to work together and
27:49:23make a fortune. No one ever thinks they
27:49:25have too little money. Besides, what
27:49:27they earn are spirit stones. This thing
27:49:29is extremely important to cultivators.
27:49:31Not only can it be used as currency for
27:49:33transactions, but it can also absorb the
27:49:36attribute less spiritual energy within
27:49:38it. Looking at the scythe in his hand,
27:49:40Su Chongqing pondered, "Recently, my
27:49:42understanding of runes has become more
27:49:44and more profound, and I can try
27:49:46refining weapons again. If I succeed, I
27:49:49will be able to master this skill. At
27:49:51that time, by using the method of
27:49:53spending money to level up, you can
27:49:55directly reach the maximum level. In
27:49:57this way, even without the assistance of
27:49:59a metal spiritual route, one can become
27:50:01a qualified blacksmith. Thinking of
27:50:03this, Su Chongqing put away his sickle
27:50:06and then turned to walk towards the
27:50:07stone house. Soon, he arrived at the
27:50:10second basement level. The alchemy room
27:50:12is on the right. The weapon refining
27:50:14room is on the left. Directly in front
27:50:16is the training room. He turned left and
27:50:19entered the weapon refining room. This
27:50:20time, I'll be refining the beginner
27:50:22level spiritual weapon, the greenwood
27:50:24needle. The main reason is that the
27:50:26materials and runes for this thing are
27:50:28relatively simple. Such Chonqing
27:50:30activated the nine flames profound
27:50:32technique, urging the fire elemental
27:50:35power in his Danteon. His right hand
27:50:37immediately turned crimson, radiating
27:50:39intense heat. Then with a whoosh, a
27:50:42crimson flame ignited. He tossed the
27:50:44object into the nearby stove, lit the
27:50:46firewood inside, and then placed the
27:50:48brass crucible on it. As the temperature
27:50:51gradually rose, he immediately placed an
27:50:53iron ingot into it. While waiting for it
27:50:55to turn into molten iron, he pulled out
27:50:57half a piece of green vine. To refine
27:50:59the Greenwood needle, you must first
27:51:01peel off the outer skin, then force out
27:51:03the bitter juice inside, and then inject
27:51:06semi-olid molten iron. However, this is
27:51:08only step one. The next step, step two,
27:51:11is to put it into the spirit artifact
27:51:13mold. Then use fire to scorch it from
27:51:15every angle, 360°.
27:51:18Once it has fully taken shape and the
27:51:20spirit patterns have emerged, you can
27:51:22proceed to step three. inscribe runes on
27:51:24it. The more spirit patterns there are,
27:51:26the more complex the runes and the
27:51:28greater the power. Such Chanqing had
27:51:31already mastered the first two steps.
27:51:33After skillfully adjusting the materials
27:51:35and temperature, they were placed into
27:51:36the magic artifact mold. 10 minutes
27:51:39later, the Aoki needle took shape under
27:51:41the scorching heat of the crimson
27:51:43flames. Such Chongqing opened the mold
27:51:45and carefully examined the inside.
27:51:47Before long, a slender spirit rune
27:51:50quietly appeared. The number of spirit
27:51:52patterns indicates the quality of the
27:51:54spirit weapon. Ordinary, highquality,
27:51:56and excellent. The presence of a spirit
27:51:58pattern indicates that this greenwood
27:52:00needle has reached the quality of an
27:52:02ordinary spirit artifact. Now, all that
27:52:05needs to be done is to refine this
27:52:06spirit rune and then use it to inscribe
27:52:08the windbreaking pattern. Once the runes
27:52:11are formed, it signifies that the
27:52:12crafting of this magical artifact is
27:52:15complete. Because it was the fourth time
27:52:17and it went exceptionally smoothly, Su
27:52:19Chongqing was a little nervous. He took
27:52:21deep breaths, trying to calm himself
27:52:23down. The temperature was just right for
27:52:25modifying spirit patterns and inscribing
27:52:27runes. Such Chonqing immediately took
27:52:30the green wood needle out of the magic
27:52:32weapon mold and stuck the green jade
27:52:34carving knife into it. It's not broken.
27:52:36This means the molten iron was just
27:52:38right. That leaves only the most
27:52:40important step. Modify the spirit
27:52:42patterns and inscribe the runes. Su
27:52:45Chongqing had long remembered all the
27:52:47basic runes, including the windbreaking
27:52:49pattern clearly, and they were deeply
27:52:51imprinted in his mind. Therefore, he
27:52:53refined the spirit pattern as much as
27:52:55possible, gradually making it conform to
27:52:58the arc and shape of the windbreaking
27:53:00pattern before he began to carve it.
27:53:02Breathing was almost non-existent. My
27:53:04heartbeat is getting slower and slower.
27:53:06His eyes were fixed on it. Almost all
27:53:08attention is now focused on this small
27:53:10Greenwood needle. As time passed, the
27:53:13windbreaking pattern was gradually
27:53:14carved out on the basis of the spirit
27:53:16pattern. When a closed loop is formed,
27:53:18the Greenwood needle trembles slightly
27:53:21and emits a humming sound. At the same
27:53:23time, Su Chongqing's attribute panel
27:53:25changed accordingly. Weapon crafting
27:53:27skills beginner.
