My Farming-Style Cultivation Is Way Too Steady - Chapter 3
Chapter 3 Farming is also a form of Qi cultivation, using it as the foundation of the Dao.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The third quarter is about to begin.
Xu Changqing lined up with everyone to receive the spirit seedlings, only to see that familiar face again.
Zhang Er asked with a half-smile, “Junior Brother Xu, this is your last chance. Have you thought it through?”
“Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother.” Xu Changqing suppressed his disgust and replied expressionlessly.
“Hmm?” Zhang Er’s smile vanished instantly, and his eyes became incredibly sharp.
Only by being kind can you give the other party a chance to “become a permanent member”.
Instead of cherishing it, they repeatedly refused it.
Once the third quarter assessment is over, we’ll make this guy pay a heavy price.
Xu Changqing didn’t want to waste time, so he reminded him, “Spirit Seedling.”
“Hmph.” Zhang Er casually tossed the small storage bag containing the spirit seed over.
After taking the item, Xu Changqing did not leave immediately.
Instead, he opened the small storage bag and released his spiritual power to perceive the situation inside.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the seedling, he turned and left.
Before long, he arrived at the first-grade spirit field he was managing.
Unexpectedly, there was a person standing there.
who?
The earth-elemental disciple who helped Lin An loosen the soil!
I was planning to find the other person, but unexpectedly, this person “took the initiative” to come to my door.
Upon seeing Xu Changqing arrive, the man asked with a smile, “Fellow Daoist, is this the spirit field you manage?”
“Yes.” Xu Changqing nodded.
“My name is Han Su, a disciple with the Earth Spirit Root.” Han Su introduced himself.
“Xu Changqing,” Xu Changqing replied.
Han Su quickly said, “Fellow Daoist Xu, something’s wrong with your spirit field.”
Xu Changqing asked, “What did you see?”
“If I’m not mistaken, is it because the yield is low and the spiritual plants aren’t growing well?” Han Su countered.
“Yes, why is that?” Xu Changqing hurriedly asked.
Han Su said playfully, “I have awakened the Earth Spirit Root, so I am very sensitive to the earth’s energy.”
“It seems that some of the earth’s energy in your spiritual field has been drained?”
“As expected.” Xu Changqing took a deep breath.
Why is Zhang Er so persistent?
Are you even certain that you won’t be able to pass the third assessment?
Clearly, the other party knew the true situation of this spiritual field.
maybe……
“Fellow Daoist Xu, I can help you replenish the earth’s energy.” A sly glint flashed in Han Su’s eyes. He hadn’t expected such an unexpected windfall; perhaps he could make a fortune this time.
“What’s the price?” Xu Changqing knew full well that there’s no such thing as a free lunch.
Han Su blurted out: “Ten low-grade spirit stones, or one-tenth of each harvest.”
“We don’t have any spirit stones, and we can’t even get a tenth of the harvest.” Although Xu Changqing needed the other party’s help, he wasn’t stupid.
Once I become a formal disciple, I will receive one acre of second-grade spirit field.
By then, production will have at least doubled.
That is, two thousand catties.
This guy asks for one-tenth of the price right off the bat.
That’s a full two hundred catties of Grade 2 Spirit Rice.
If it’s a one-time transaction, I’ll reluctantly agree.
They always try to get a piece of the pie, which shows they’re well aware of their own desire for a permanent position.
Han Su blinked: “Fellow Daoist Xu, what is this loss once you become a formal disciple?”
Xu Changqing said with a serious expression, “That’s precisely why it’s impossible.”
“That’s how Lin An and I cooperated,” Han Su said, shrugging as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
“He is him, and I am me.” Xu Changqing still refused to back down and insisted on his bottom line.
“This… what do you suggest we do?” Han Su asked, seeing the other party’s firm attitude and unwilling to leave.
Xu Changqing said seriously, “You can take one-tenth of this cooperation, and we can discuss the rest later.”
If I had spirit stones, I would have given them away long ago.
This is the only way.
“Huh?” Han Su’s eyes widened upon hearing this.
Xu Changqing reminded him, “Don’t forget, you’re not the only one who has awakened the Earth Spirit Root.”
Upon hearing this, Han Su’s eyes darted around for a moment, and after considering it carefully, he nodded: “Alright.”
He knew it too.
Not everyone can be as reckless as Lin An.
But as long as there’s profit to be made, even a small amount is still profit.
“Begin your performance,” Xu Changqing gestured.
“Just you wait and see.” Han Su grinned.
He immediately took off his shoes and stepped barefoot into the spiritual field.
Because Xu Changqing had already dealt with the weeds and loosened the soil.
Therefore, he skipped this step and directly used the [Earth Pull Technique].
The whole process is actually about injecting the earth’s spiritual energy, which is free in the world, into the ground.
The parts that were originally removed will be restored.
In this way, the soil in the spiritual field will be rich in nutrients.
Xu Changqing saw this and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
When the earth’s energy is replenished, production will increase.
In this way, no one will suspect that they have cheat codes.
“It’s done.” Not long after, Han Su, his face ashen, returned to the edge of the field.
Seeing the strange look on the other person’s face, Xu Changqing couldn’t help but ask, “Are you alright?”
“It’s nothing, it’s just from absorbing too much earth elemental energy,” Han Su waved his hand dismissively.
Xu Changqing nodded slightly: “That’s good.”
“Come, let’s sign the contract.” Han Su took out a yellow talisman.
Xu Changqing signed his name.
Then squeeze a drop of blood from your index finger and press it onto the skin.
Han Su was the same.
Once everything was settled, the originally dull yellow talisman began to glow with a spiritual light.
This signifies that the collaboration between the two has taken effect.
If Xu Changqing breaches the contract, the [Sect Manager] will handle the matter personally.
Even if he fails the assessment and does not become a formal disciple.
As long as Han Su hands over this talisman to the steward, he can still exchange it for 100 catties of spirit rice.
My dear reader, there’s more to reading—even more exciting content awaits!
Although it’s just the most common first-grade spiritual rice, it’s still spiritual rice.
“It was a pleasure working with you. Please contact me again next time.” Han Su said with delight.
Spirit rice is rich in nutrients and contains spiritual energy.
It can be used for a long time without any harm.
It can even increase the spiritual power within the body at an extremely slow rate.
Although it’s only a temporary collaboration, it’s still worthwhile.
After all, he only lost a small amount of spiritual energy.
Then, Han Su walked to the other side.
Xu Changqing narrowed his eyes as he watched the other person’s departing figure.
Zhang Er is the most ruthless; he wants it all.
Han Su was slightly better, only one-tenth of the weight.
Without the “golden finger” (a cheat code for cheating), I’m afraid I’d have no choice but to compromise.
…
Next, Xu Changqing, like many other outer disciples who had awakened their wood spirit roots, followed suit.
They all began planting spirit seedlings around the spirit field.
But it’s not as simple as just planting.
Instead, they first enveloped the seedling with their own meager spiritual power before planting it.
It may seem like just an extra step, but it consumes a lot of spiritual energy.
But in reality, this is one of the methods of cultivating Qi.
As the saying goes, farming is a way to cultivate one’s inner strength.
In the early stages of Qi Refining, one possesses only a trace of spiritual energy.
It will increase continuously after training.
Until the nine threads are finished.
A large amount of wood elemental energy is needed to break through.
And so, time passed day by day.
The once empty fields gradually filled with seedlings.
Xu Changqing’s spiritual power also increased from “three strands” to “six strands”.
Just as he wrapped the last spiritual seedling in his spiritual power and inserted it into the soil.
Suddenly, all the spiritual seedlings resonated.
It grows not only at a rate visible to the n*ked eye.
Moreover, even the concentration of wood elemental energy in the air is soaring.
The situation is exactly the same for the other spirit fields.
It was not large in scale at first.
One piece in the east, one piece in the west.
Later they merged into one.
Finally, all the spiritual seedlings in the spiritual fields grew while releasing rich wood spiritual energy.
“The concentration of wood elemental energy is very high this time!”
“With a bit of luck, I might even break through to a higher realm!”
“Without reaching the second level of the Evergreen Technique, it’s impossible to break through!”
At this moment, all the outer disciples in the spirit field sat cross-legged on the ridge.
They all activated the [Evergreen Technique] to absorb the rich wood elemental energy from the surroundings.
Farming is divided into three periods, corresponding to three stages.
The upward phase.
Stable period.
Decline phase.
Rising – corresponds to the seedling stage.
Stability corresponds to the growth stage.
Decline – corresponds to the harvesting phase.
The rising and stable periods are the most beneficial for disciples with wood spirit roots.
Because it can absorb rich wood elemental energy every day.
Therefore, strength will grow in these two stages.
During the harvesting phase, the wood elemental energy gradually decreases, leading to slower cultivation.
…
Xu Changqing was also cultivating, and he felt… great.
The Evergreen Technique has been upgraded to level two.
It grants a 20% increase to cultivation speed.
It’s just like drinking water.
While everyone else was sipping their drinks in small sips.
Xu Changqing, however, gulped down mouthful after mouthful as if swallowing a whale.
Not only is its cultivation speed the fastest.
It also plundered the surrounding wood elemental energy.
Although Xu Changqing failed the assessment twice in a row, he also benefited from it, which allowed his spiritual energy to accumulate to a certain level.
As a massive amount of wood elemental energy surged into his body, a hissing sound was heard.
The spiritual energy began to split.
It splits from “six threads” into “nine threads” at an extremely fast speed.
Normally, we should stop at this stage.
And it will be stuck for a period of time.
However, with the added benefit of a 20% increase in cultivation speed.
Gradually, the nine strands of spiritual energy gathered together.
At first, they intertwined like thin snakes.
But as the wood elemental energy continued to impact it, it became increasingly solid.
Ultimately, the tiny “threads” merge into a robust “strand”.
Nine threads become one strand.
The numbers appear to have changed.
However, the concentration of spiritual energy has at least doubled.
“I… broke through?” Xu Changqing was stunned.
He hurriedly checked the attribute panel.
