In the blink of an eye, Chen Mobai had been fighting demonic beasts on Green
Light Island for ten days flat.
From what began as a genteel, ancient-style handsome young man, to now wearing short sleeves and letting his hair loose.
If it wasn’t for the Cleaning technique, his appearance may have been likened
to that of a savage by now.
The number of people in their small team was also decreasing, and at this point, only twelve remained.
However, those remaining were basically the elites.
Fortunately, those Chen Mobai had met all survived.
Luo Lin had already left the team. After all, she was only at the third level of Qi Cultivation. After fighting non-stop for five days, even with the supplement of elixirs and talismans, she fell into a coma due to exhaustion of spiritual and physical strength.
However, surviving was what mattered most after all.
Three days after Shi Pengyi left with Luo Lin, he returned to the team. Apart from wishing to earn Spirit Stones, he had also advanced to the sixth level of Qi Cultivation.
His spiritual root talent was quite good, but if he wanted to make further progress or even pursue Foundation Establishment, the island defense fight this time provided him with the best opportunity for advancement. Not only could he obtain Spirit Stones, but he could also further refine his cultivation techniques.
If he could break through to the seventh level of Qi Cultivation in the next few years, at least before the age limit of 60, Shi Pengyi could attempt Foundation Establishment once.
Chen Mobai had never participated in the struggles for the opening of the Immortals’ Gate, but he felt that even the struggles for the opening should be as brutal as this, right?
Of the twelve people they still had alive, seven were in the late stage of Qi Cultivation and five were at the sixth level of Qi Cultivation.
A disciple of the Divine Wood Sect had also died. After Qi Rui cremated him personally, carrying the urn with his ashes, he left the team for a day. But when he returned the next day, he once again devoted himself fully to the fight against the demonic beasts.
A Loose Cultivator in the late stage of Qi Cultivation also died.
And of the remaining Loose Cultivators, only three, like Luo Lin, could leave
alive.
The brutalities of both life and death, and battle, enabled Chen Mobai to grow significantly within this short span of ten days.
“Come, Brother Chen.”
Qi Rui threw the wine jug in his hand to Chen Mobai who caught it effortlessly and took a sip.
Initially, he didn’t like to drink alcohol, seeing that the taste of milk tea was much better than that of alcohol.
But there was no milk tea in this world, so he had to cope with what was
available.
However, after having drunk alcohol for such a long time, he was gradually beginning to appreciate its taste.
This jug of wine that Qi Rui held, according to him, was brewed from Jade Bud Spirit Rice grown on the Giant Tree Ridge. The taste was full bodied and smooth, and long-term consumption even had a promotional effect on cultivation.
This pot of wine cost one Spirit Stone.
After asking Shi Pengyi and his peers about it, he realized that not all Cultivators in the Tianhe Realm could afford to eat Spirit Rice and drink Spiritual Wine for every meal.
Regarding this, Chen Mobai could only comment that the agriculture of the Tianhe Realm was not developed enough.
Although the Immortal Gate was short of resources, there was one thing that was never scarce – Spirit Rice.
On the Earth Elemental Star, regardless of whether it was plains or mountains, as long as it was possible to open and cultivate Spirit Fields, they were all exploited by the Lingzhi Husband of the Immortal Gate.
After all, the body was the most fundamental thing. If one couldn’t eat enough Spirit Rice, how could one possibly expect the children of the next generation to be talented?
The technique of cultivating Spirit Rice on the side of the Immortal Gate had reached an absolute pinnacle.
Therefore, because every generation had grown up eating Spirit Rice for thousands of years, it was very rare for a baby to be born lacking in innate Spirit Root Attributes on the side of the Immortal Gate.
In the Tianhe Realm, those who had Spirit Roots and could sense and cultivate Spiritual Energy were surprisingly in the minority.
As a major sect of the Eastern Wilderness, the Divine Wood Sect, which recruited disciples every year, had to let Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage lead a group of people to various cities and villages to measure Spirit Roots among the mortals.
Not only was this inefficient, but there was also a large probability of overlooking people with Spirit Roots.
Eight years ago, when Liu Jia Mountain was recruiting disciples in the Eastern Wilderness, their Spirit Messenger found a genius with a Different Spiritual Root in Rain Country which the Divine Wood Sect had previously checked. Upon hearing about this, the Old Ancestor Fu was furious.
If not for the Spirit Messenger of the previous generation of the Divine Wood Sect who managed to snatch a baby with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, he would probably have been severely punished for this matter.
“With such an abundant amount of Spiritual Energy in the Tianhe Realm, it would be a waste not to cultivate land.”
As Chen Mobai drank the small wine, he thought if he got into the Divine Wood Sect in the future, he would definitely not waste such good Spiritual Land resources.
The Giant Tree Ridge with Rank-4 Spirit Vein, known as the second largest medicine field in the Eastern Wilderness, might be a bit difficult to convert into farmland.
But Chen Mobai didn’t need such good Spiritual Land either.
Qi Rui said that there were many abandoned rank-1 and rank-2 Spirit Fields around the Giant Tree Ridge. Because the Divine Wood Sect has only been separated for less than a hundred years, there were not many disciples, so the sect’s influence area was rather sparsely populated.
Basically, every Qi Cultivation disciple could be divided into a rank-2 Spirit Vein.
He could buy some seeds that grew fast but required high amounts of Spiritual Energy from the Earth Elemental Star, which would perfectly utilize the abundant Spiritual Energy of the Tianhe Realm.
Chen Mobai’s mother, Tang Panchui, came from a village situated in a valley between Danxia City and Yu Wood City, where the people from generations past had made a living farming. The Water Clear Rice they grew had a pure white and translucent color, with a unique green leaf aroma.
Most of the cultivators in Danxia City and Yu Wood City only acknowledge the rank-2 Water Clear Rice grown here.
When Chen Mobai was young, he had also been taken to work in the fields. Regarding farming, he felt that he had a bit of a knack for it.
“Manager Wang, I would like to request two days of leave to rest.”
After finishing his wine, Chen Mobai approached Wang Yuanwu. The latter paused for a moment, thinking that Chen Mobai was tired of fighting and wanted to quit and leave.
“Brother Chen, if you are dissatisfied with the quantity of Spirit Stones, we can negotiate again.”
“Manager Wang, you misunderstood. It’s just that the non-stop fighting over the past ten days has left me mentally fatigued. If I don’t take a break now, I might lose my guard on the battlefield and get killed by those beasts.” Chen Mobai explained with a wry smile, adding that the following day, the Danxia City side would announce the pairing list and detailed rules for the Daoist Academy entrance exam.
He had to rush back to check his opponents and see if there was anything he needed to take note of.
“So that’s the case, I apologize for misunderstanding you, Brother Chen.
After hearing this, Wang Yuanwu immediately apologized, as the pressure he had been under during this period was also very great.
Just the day before, the defensive line they held had broken. If not for Ning Leshan repelling the Bird King and reinforcing them in time, they might not have been able to retake this place.
However, despite this, the Spiritual Tree Array Banner they were protecting was damaged. Although their Junior Brother Liu was trying his best to repair it, he wasn’t a Lingzhi Husband and the effect was slow.
“Oh, Brother Wang, I heard you have a Red Flame Sword Charm. You also know of my aspiration to join the Divine Wood Sect, and I have decided to cultivate the Eternal Life Sutra and the Red Flame Sword technique.. I wonder if you might be willing to part with it and sell it to me?”
