My Farming-Style Cultivation Is Way Too Steady - Chapter 353

Chapter 352 Mutation and Upgrade!

To test whether the portable space could be used for large-scale planting, Xu Changqing chose to cultivate two acres of land on the far left.

The first acre was planted with mutant rice.

The second acre was planted with Golden Rice Gathering Spirit Dance.

As a result, the spiritual rice in these two acres of spiritual fields has all changed.

First, the first acre of mutant rice changed from its original golden color to dark green.

The plant is slightly shorter than ordinary mutant rice, but the straw is unusually thick.

The rice leaves are thick, with tiny water droplets clinging to the fuzz on their surface. The roots are intertwined in the black soil, giving them a strong grip on the ground.

The rice ears are heavy, like small brooms, and each ear contains 30% more grains than the normal mutant rice.

The rice grains are round and ivory-white, and they are a size larger than before.

Xu Changqing raised an eyebrow: “This seems to be the ‘Strengthening the Foundation and Enriching the Soil’ rice?”

Compared to the mutant rice, without the support of the Azure Lotus Domain and the Four Seasons Classic, this rare mutant rice has increased its ripening time from once a quarter to once a month.

With the quantity remaining the same, the yield is higher and the maturity cycle is shorter.

It can replenish the spiritual energy lost by cultivators, making it very suitable as a daily staple.

If we say that the spiritual rice produced by the mutant rice is an upgraded version of ordinary spiritual rice…

The spiritual rice produced by the Gubenfengtang rice variety is an upgraded version of the upgraded version, better in every aspect, with the main features being large quantity, filling, and fast ripening.

Moreover, this thing is not picky about the environment. Even without black soil, it can take root and sprout in wet mud, dry soil, or piles of gravel.

It’s just that its yield is slightly lower than that of black soil.

Moreover, its straw is more suitable for slash-and-burn agriculture and can better enrich the soil.

As for the Golden Rice Gathering Spirit Rice, the changes are even greater.

The rice stalks are nearly half again as thick as before, and the whole thing is as smooth and warm as jade. Five-colored glints are visible on the surface, and the glints flow like the five elements of spiritual energy circulating.

The rice leaves are broad and flexible, with a faint golden edge.

The veins of the leaves are bright green.

A glistening dewdrop clung to the tip of a leaf.

The overall temperature is slightly higher than other types of rice.

The soil in which a plant takes root must always be kept moist and fertile.

It can be said that the characteristics of the Five Elements are fully displayed in it.

The rice ears are full and have a translucent amber color.

When mature, a wisp of five-colored spiritual energy condenses at the tip of the spike, which then spreads out to nourish all the spiritual plants within a three-foot radius.

In other words, it has been upgraded from its original metal attribute to one of the five elements.

Xu Changqing pondered: “This is the Five Elements Circulating Rice, which is only grown in a Grade 3 Spirit Field.”

According to the book, compared to the Gubenfengrang rice, a variant rice that can be planted and cultivated in any environment, the Wuxing Zhouliu rice has very strict environmental requirements.

Especially in black soil, if the nutrients are not sufficient, even if roots and shoots develop, the plant will grow with an imbalance in its properties. In short, it will tend to thrive on whatever attributes it has more of.

Of course, this is both its disadvantage and its advantage.

Some spirit farmers will deliberately favor a certain attribute in order to obtain spirit rice of that attribute.

It should be noted that most ordinary spirit rice contains non-attribute spiritual energy.

Once it possesses a certain attribute, its effect will definitely be much stronger than ordinary spirit rice.

But that is precisely why it is planted in third-grade spirit fields or above.

According to the book, consuming Five Elements Circulating Rice can not only replenish spiritual power, but also harmonize the five elements within the body.

Long-term consumption can slowly improve the compatibility of the five elements spiritual roots, and increase the speed of the flow of spiritual power during cultivation by 10%.

Most importantly, the roots of the Five Elements Circulating Rice secrete five-colored liquid into the soil, gradually transforming the black soil in which it is planted into five-colored soil.

What is five-colored soil?

This type of soil can nourish spiritual plants like ordinary black soil, absorb metal energy, retain water vapor, store fire energy, and maintain the balance of the five elements.

The five-colored soil is precisely the key element for enhancing personal space.

Of course, the benefits of Five Elements Cyclic Rice are not limited to these.

The ash produced from burning rice husks is a natural raw material for talismans.

After being dried, rice straw becomes as tough as wood and as hard as metal, making it suitable for crafting handles or grips of basic spiritual artifacts and magical implements. It also possesses a slight ability to harmonize the five elements, which can reduce the consumption of spiritual and magical power by cultivators.

But the more this happened, the uglier Xu Changqing’s expression became.

At that time, only two acres were planted to test the effect.

If he had known this would happen, he would have made a fortune by acquiring a dozen or several dozen acres.

Xu Changqing was in great pain and couldn’t help but let out a howl: “Ouch!”

Then, he quickly looked at the various mutated spiritual plants that had been transplanted.

Time-space tree rings, spatial earthworm fruit tree, Fusheng mutant mother rice, etc.

But they found that they were just bigger and stronger than before.

Apart from that, it did not undergo any particularly significant changes or mutations like the mutated rice and golden rice spirit-gathering dance in the two acres of spirit fields.

It seems that the perfect balance of the five elements in the spiritual root is what makes these two types of mutated rice meet the conditions for further mutation.

Seeing that they were ripe, Xu Changqing immediately took out his sickle.

Harvesting one “Strengthening the Foundation and Enriching the Soil” rice plant increases its lifespan by 10 days.

Harvesting one “Five Elements Circulating Rice” plant increases its lifespan by 55 days.

Cumulative lifespan increase: days

Current remaining lifespan: 783 years

Unfortunately, because there were only one hundred Golden Rice Spirit Gathering Plants before, even though harvesting one plant could bring 55 days of lifespan, it only added 5,500 days in the end.

As for the Gubenfengrang rice, it was originally a mutated variety, and only 1,000 plants could be planted in one mu of second-grade spiritual land.

In this way, this harvest only added a mere 42 years to lifespan, which just offset the cost of learning the Secret Record of Ten Thousand Insects last time.

After the harvest was over, Xu Changqing looked at the more than 100 acres of Grade 2 spiritual fields, spiritual lake, and spiritual plants in front of him, and felt more relaxed than ever before.

Now that the five elements are complete, I can finally farm in peace and tranquility.

With a thought, he instantly left and returned to the outside world.

Just then, footsteps came from the doorway.

As expected, Chu Qiu should be back.

Xu Changqing immediately stepped out from behind the screen and, as expected, ran into the other person: “Senior Brother Chu.”

Chu Qiu couldn’t help but look him up and down: “You kid…you haven’t awakened a water elemental root, have you?”

Xu Changqing immediately clasped his hands in thanks: “Thank you for your help, Senior Brother!”

Chu Qiu had an “I knew it” expression on his face: “I saw that you hadn’t come out of the Sea Demon Pavilion for two days, so I guessed that you would use the spiritual energy emitted by the underwater dragon vein to awaken your water spirit root in one go!”

Xu Changqing blinked: “To show our gratitude, shall we go again tonight?”

Chu Qiu quickly waved his hand: “Forget it, I’m not interested in this.”

Xu Changqing didn’t insist: “Okay.”

Chu Qiu thought for a moment, then reminded him, “I advise you to take it easy. Although joint registration can indeed bring benefits, it can also lead to addiction.”

Xu Changqing immediately suppressed his smile: “What you say is true, Senior Brother.”

Seeing this, Chu Qiu nodded slightly, a look of satisfaction in his eyes: “Tomorrow, we will set off to return to the Immortal Sect.”

Now that I’ve participated in the Thousand Sails Competition and even won first place, there’s no need for me to waste any more time here.

After all, the Guixu Secret Realm will reopen next month after 101 years.

At that time, I will have to concentrate all my energy on exploring the secret realm.

Xu Changqing nodded: “That’s what I think too!”
