Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 193
[Chapter 192: Fish and Rice (Congratulations to the Silver Alliance!)]
“Yimu Divine Thunder Formation, start!”
The location of the Yan family mansion has now been renamed “Changqing Pavilion” by Fang Xi, and an exquisite and elegant cave has been built.
Around the cave, the Yimu Divine Thunder Formation was set up!
This formation was originally just a remnant formation, with a small coverage area and lacking several functions.
Later, when Fang Xi was promoted to a second-rank high-quality formation master, after various adjustments and repairs, although it could not be said to be completely restored to its original state, it barely recovered 70% to 80% of its power, and the coverage area was even wider, at least including the most important places such as Changqing Pavilion, Lingyao Valley, and some fish farms, without many problems.
In fact, there are quite a few mortals living on Dragon Fish Island, and some of them even form a small country of their own.
If Fang Xi was happy, he could even appoint a mortal as emperor.
This is what the Longyu Zhong family did before. They designated a mortal without spiritual roots in their direct lineage as the emperor, and then led the rest of the mortals.
After the Thirty-Six Islands Alliance conquered Dragon Fish Island, the Zhong royal family was naturally purged, and then each of the three families moved a part of their people here, allowing a mortal from the Taishu family to become the emperor.
Then after the Song family defeated the demon, the Yan family came and executed the emperor of the Taishu family as usual, and then let their own family sit on the throne.
The Yan family emperor had a relatively good ending. He moved to Lingkong Island with some of his clansmen and the Yan family. Maybe he will be in charge of the mortal affairs of Lingkong Island in the future.
“The power changes in the mortal world are all manipulated by the immortal cultivators behind the scenes…”
“Most of the mortals on Dragon Fish Island today are descendants of the Zhong family, with a small number of people from the Taishu, Yuchi, and Xiahou families. As for the Yan family, those who could move away have naturally moved away… There are also some miscellaneous surnames…”
Although the Song family massacred the cultivators of the three families of Taishu, they did not exterminate all mortals – this was a clear act of the devil.
In such a large group of mortals, it is natural that children with spiritual roots and talents can be found every once in a while, forming small groups of independent cultivators.
Many of them were greedy for the spiritual veins of Dragon Fish Island and did not leave with the Yan family. Instead, they stayed and wanted to work for Fang Xi.
Since they were all a group of little guys in the Qi Refining Stage, Fang Xi didn’t care much.
He came to the main hall of Changqing Pavilion and casually sent out a few sound transmission notes.
Not long after, more than a dozen streams of light came winding over, revealing the immortal cultivators who were controlling magical weapons.
There were old and young among them, and at this moment, looking at the ‘Yimu Divine Thunder Array’ with faint lightning light, expressions of awe appeared on their faces.
When we followed the passage opened by Fang Xi and arrived at the main hall, we saw a young monk sitting on the main seat. He had a handsome face and was wearing a green robe. He exuded a vibrant aura.
“Meet the Island Master!”
These monks did not dare to be negligent and paid homage to him one by one.
After all, this was a great foundation-building cultivator! He was also a great foundation-building cultivator who could force the Yan family to leave and make them not even dare to destroy the spiritual land!
“Everyone, get up…”
Fang Xi swept his spiritual sense around and found that among these people, the lowest cultivation level was only one or two levels, while the highest was an old man wearing a straw raincoat, who had already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, and his face was full of traces of weathering.
“Let me introduce you all, starting with you.”
He casually pointed at the old man in the straw raincoat.
“My name is Zhong Qi, and I have been raising jade carp in the fish farm…”
Zhong Qi gave a flattering smile.
“Your last name is Zhong? Are you a descendant of the Zhong family?”
Fang Xi was not surprised and asked casually.
“My ancestors may be, but they have been separated for dozens of generations and are not included in the Longyu Zhong family tree. Instead, they have worked and cultivated the fields for the Longyu Zhong family for generations. Only I was found to have spiritual roots and was rewarded with a technique. Later, I raised fish for the Zhong family…”
Zhong Qi answered frankly that his situation was actually very common in immortal cultivation families.
But generally speaking, if there is a cultivator in the side branch, he will also be included in the family tree. Unfortunately, he offended a direct descendant of the Longyu Zhong family, so he was obstructed and this matter did not succeed.
This actually saved his life, because he was not on the Zhong family tree and was not liquidated by the three families. And because he had the skill of raising fish, he was ordered to continue raising fish after surrendering.
The same thing happened when the Yan family arrived. After all, the Yan family and the Zhong family had no grudges against each other.
It can be said that it was a blessing in disguise.
“Not bad, not bad. Can you raise a little blue dragon?”
Fang Xi touched the spirit beast bag on his waist. He just bought this bag casually. It was quite uncomfortable for a second-level demon beast to stay in it.
In the past, he naturally didn’t care and let Da Qing feel aggrieved…
But now that the conditions are in place, Daqing can be stationed at the fish farm.
This fish farm is a lake on an island, connected to Wandao Lake by water. It is full of spiritual energy and is very suitable for the growth of spiritual fish.
“The old man won’t…”
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhong Qi’s face. “Raising jade carp is a unique skill of the Dragon Fish Zhong family. I am just helping out. By osmosis, I have learned how to raise first-grade low-quality jade carp… It’s a bit difficult to raise a medium-quality one. As for the little blue dragon, it is a secret of the Zhong family. Only the core can know it…”
He was able to learn a few tricks of fish farming thanks to his surname, Zhong. Although he was not included in the family tree, he was still more trustworthy than those outsiders.
“Well, the fish farm will still be under your management in the future…”
Fang Xi thought about it and selected a few independent cultivators to be assigned to the old man.
Anyway, the fish farm is watched over by Daqing, so nothing serious will happen.
“Xiahou Zun greets the island master. May the island master live forever!”
The wandering cultivators introduced themselves one by one, and finally only a man and a woman were left.
The man was about seventeen or eighteen years old and very handsome. He bowed to the other party with a flattering smile, but his cultivation was low and he was only at the third level of Qi Refining.
After the self-introduction, Fang Xi learned that this person’s ancestors were immigrants from the three previous families who moved to Longyu Island. When the Song family was destroying the demon, their spiritual roots had not yet been tested, so as a mortal, they escaped the disaster.
Later, when the Yan family took charge, he became a tenant of the Yan family.
This time when they moved, they did not leave with the master’s family.
“This is my cousin, named ‘Xiahou Ying’… The island master is very busy and needs to be taken care of. I would like to offer my cousin as a maid to serve the island master…”
After Xiahou Zun finished speaking, he pulled the female cultivator behind him.
This female cultivator seemed to be no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, with bright eyes, white teeth, willow-shaped eyebrows and rosy cheeks. Although she had not yet fully grown, she had the potential to be a beauty.
When the other casual cultivators heard this, they cursed him for being shameless, and hated themselves for not having such a sister to offer to the island master…
“You are kind-hearted…”
Fang Xi glanced at Xia Houying and found that she was only at the second level of Qi Refining: “What kind of skills are you practicing?”
“My Lord, I… I have medium-grade spiritual roots of gold and water, and I practice the ‘Black Water Technique’!”
Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.
Xia Houying answered timidly.
“You have two middle-grade spiritual roots, gold and water… If you find a suitable technique, it will be faster than the average person with a single middle-grade spiritual root. Practicing the Black Water Technique is a bit of a waste of your talent.”
Fang Xi thought about it, and took out a jade slip from his storage bag: “This ‘Golden Water Technique’ happens to be a technique that combines gold and water, so I will grant it to you.”
He had even forgotten from which unlucky guy’s storage bag he had confiscated this martial art.
“Thank you, Island Master!”
Xiahou Ying kowtowed, and Xiahou Zun beside him let out a sigh, not caring about the various looks from others.
Before they went to the three families, they were labeled as demon cultivators. Now they are afraid of being treated differently, so they have to work hard to gain personal benefits.
Fang Xi took in a maid, not because he was attracted by her beauty, but to show his willingness to accept a local cultivator.
Sure enough, even the monks below, even Zhong Qi, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this scene.
“As for you, Xiahou Zun… you are the manager of Spiritual Medicine Valley…”
Fang Xi put his hands behind his back and walked out of Changqing Pavilion: “Let’s go to the Spiritual Medicine Valley…”
…
Miraculous Medicine Valley.
This place is not far from Changqing Pavilion. The valley is full of spiritual energy and has well-cultivated second-level spiritual fields and medicine gardens.
Not far away, there are the alchemy rooms left over from the Zhong family, which have now been converted into residences by the tenant farmers.
“My Lord, this Spiritual Medicine Valley mainly grows spiritual herbs, supplemented by spiritual rice… Before the Yan family left, they uprooted all the spiritual herbs…”
Xiahou Zun followed closely behind Fang Xi and reported in a low voice.
“Never mind…it’s not that many years anyway.”
The value of spiritual medicine lies in its age. This spiritual medicine valley experienced a catastrophe as early as the demise of the Zhong family. Even if it is replanted afterwards, it will still take time to grow.
But then we experienced the chaos of the three families, and it was really a mess.
“From now on, we will set aside the ten acres of Spiritual Medicine Valley with the most abundant spiritual energy to plant spiritual medicine seeds, and the rest will be used for farming…”
Fang Xi touched the soil on the ground and made a decision: “What kind of rice did the Zhong family grow in the past?”
“It’s mainly first-level green corn and second-level dragon scale refined rice… Green corn is fine, but the second-level dragon scale refined rice is a secret of the Zhong family. Although we have seeds, they are difficult to grow or have directly degenerated…”
Xiahou Zun was a little depressed.
“Well, the method of growing high-level spiritual rice is kept secret, which is normal…”
Fang Xi was also an experienced farmer. He asked a few questions, all of which were to the point, causing Xiahou Zun to break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
Finally, Fang Xi came to the conclusion: “It seems that the problem lies mainly in fertilizer and water…”
“Yes, Old Zhong also said that when the Zhong family was growing spiritual rice, they often went to the fish farm to get water. But we tried to irrigate it with spiritual water rich in jade carp feces, but it didn’t work…”
Xiahou Zun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied.
“Maybe the Jade Carp is not high enough… At least it needs to be a Little Azure Dragon.”
“It’s okay, you can try it later.”
Fang Xi was quite confident about this. After all, the Green Horned Fish Dragon was a second-level monster, much more valuable than the first-level Little Green Dragon Essence. Should the bath water be useful for the Dragon Scale Rice?
If this second-level spiritual rice was eaten frequently, it would have a good effect on him.
After giving special instructions to Xiahou Zun, Fang Xi returned to Changqing Pavilion.
Looking down from the top of the attic, you can clearly see a green dragon swimming happily in the sparkling fish farm.
“This is… my property!”
Fang Xi felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
Now, he is finally no longer living under someone else’s roof like in Bai Ze Fairy City, but has truly settled down.
