44: Chapter 44 Another Harvest, The Legacy of the Spirit Chef

After leaving the treasury, Li Luochen did not stay long in the Council Hall and returned to Luochen Residence.

After spending two days with his wife and daughter, he began leading the clansmen to harvest the spirit rice.

Once the spirit rice on Hidden Dragon Island was harvested, and after leaving people behind to guard Hidden Dragon Island, he took his men and headed towards Youlong Island.

However, by the time they arrived at Youlong Island, the spirit rice here had already been harvested and was currently being threshed.

Once all the spirit rice was safely bagged, the System's voice rang out in Li Luochen's mind.

"Ding, congratulations to the host's Family for their diligent farming. You have harvested 6,000 catties of High Grade Tier 1 spirit rice, worth 6,000 Spirit Stones. The farming reward condition has been met. The High Grade Tier 1 spirit rice critical strike was successful. You have obtained one premium foundation establishment pill."

"Ding, congratulations to the host's Family for their diligent farming. You have obtained 27,000 catties of Medium Grade Tier 1 spirit rice, worth 9,000 Spirit Stones. The farming reward condition has been met. The Medium Grade Tier 1 spirit rice critical strike was successful. You have obtained one top-tier Tier 1 Pill Furnace."

"Ding, congratulations to the host's Family for their diligent farming. You have harvested 126,000 catties of Low Grade Tier 1 spirit rice, worth 12,600 Spirit Stones. The farming reward condition has been met. The Low Grade Tier 1 spirit rice critical strike was successful. You have obtained one bottle of hundred-year stalactite essence."

"Ding, congratulations to the host's Family for their diligent farming. You have harvested 870,000 catties of ordinary spirit rice, worth 8,700 Spirit Stones. The farming reward condition has been met. The ordinary spirit rice yield has been increased fivefold."

"Ding, congratulations to the host's Family for their diligent farming. You have harvested some stalks, worth some Spirit Stones. The farming reward condition has been met. The stalks critical strike was successful. You have obtained a copy of Introduction to Formation Basics."

"Ding, congratulations to the host's Family for their diligent farming. You have harvested some spirit potatoes, worth some Spirit Stones. The farming reward condition has been met. The spirit potatoes critical strike was successful. You have obtained one copy of the Tier 1 Spirit Chef Legacy."

Li Luochen listened to the mechanical voice in his mind, the smile in his eyes deepening.

The Spirit Chef Legacy, this is a good thing; the value of the Family's spirit rice and spirit potatoes can be significantly increased.

If someone really learns this Spirit Chef Legacy, they could even open a shop in certain markets.

In any case, the Li Family has plenty of spirit fields; at worst, they can just designate a portion specifically for growing spirit vegetables.

Introduction to Formation Basics is also a good thing. For any Formation Master, it is absolutely the best introductory text.

Hundred-year stalactite essence has gentle energy and can rapidly increase cultivation in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If it were three-hundred-year stalactite essence, it could even increase the success rate of Foundation Establishment by 20%. This is something that can be encountered but not sought.

I didn't expect the System to reward a bottle; I wonder how many drops are in it.

Taking the jade bottle out of the System space and opening it quickly, Li Luochen felt somewhat helpless; there were actually only ten drops.

Although it can allow him to Cultivate for a while, it is absolutely impossible to make a Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

Li Luochen didn't know what to do with the Pill Furnace, but regardless, it is a top-tier Tier 1 Magical Artifact. It's better to leave it in the Family first; once an Alchemy room is established in the future, he can just place it inside then.

The final premium foundation establishment pill is also a good thing. Li Luochen now has two premium foundation establishment pills, one ordinary foundation establishment pill, and two drops of essence spirit true liquid; these are all treasures for Foundation Establishment.

If used well, it could fully allow two people in the Family to make a Breakthrough to the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment; and this is just a conservative estimate.

Li Luochen asked: "Yanlong, accompany me to Qingsha Market this time."

Li Yanlong's eyes lit up, and he quickly nodded.

"Yes, Patriarch. I wonder how much spirit rice we are going to sell this time?"

Li Luochen hesitated for a moment and said: "2,000 catties of High Grade Tier 1 spirit rice, 9,000 catties of Medium Grade Tier 1 spirit rice, 20,000 catties of Low Grade Tier 1 spirit rice, and 300,000 catties of ordinary spirit rice."

Li Yanlong nodded slightly, naturally understanding the purpose of Li Luochen doing this.

"Very well, Patriarch. Shall we leave now?"

Li Luochen laughed and said: "No rush. Yanhu, leave those spirit potatoes. I have quite a few good things here for you all. After I leave, Yanhu, let the clansmen take a look."

While speaking, he took out a Storage Pouch, which contained not only the Formation Master Legacy and the Alchemist Legacy, but also the Spirit Chef Legacy.

Besides these Legacies, there was also a Pill Furnace, and nothing else.

After handing the Storage Pouch to Li Yanhu, Li Luochen took Li Yanlong and quickly left Youlong Island.

As soon as they left, Li Yanhu impatiently opened the Storage Pouch, and the first thing he saw was the Pill Furnace.

Although the top-tier Tier 1 Magical Artifact Pill Furnace was of good quality, Li Yanhu did not pay attention to it; instead, he turned his gaze to the three Jade Slips.

He quickly took out one of them, which recorded the Tier 1 Alchemist Legacy. It contained not only Alchemy but also a large number of Tier 1 Medicinal Pill Pill Formulas.

Li Yanhu was incredibly excited. After reading it, he casually handed it to Zhou Xin; regardless, Zhou Xin was the Patriarch's wife.

Not long after, all the clansmen had finished reading the three Jade Slips.

Li Yanhu looked at Zhou Xin, and after seeing her nod, he said: "The Patriarch's intention in leaving these things behind is very clear. Who among you is interested in Alchemy? Who is interested in Formations? And who is interested in being a Spirit Chef?"

"If you are interested, you can start Cultivating the content recorded in these three Jade Slips."

"The reason why the Patriarch gave us these three Jade Slips is because he wants to train a few Alchemists, Formation Masters, and Spirit Chefs."

"This concerns our future, so you decide for yourselves."

After speaking, he was not in a hurry, waiting for everyone to make their choices.

...

With Li Luochen's current cultivation, it wouldn't take long to get from Youlong Island to Qingsha Island.

When they were about to arrive at Qingsha Island, Li Luochen suddenly asked: "Yanlong, what level have you reached in your cultivation of the first layer of the Heaven-Covering Technique?"

Li Yanlong quickly said: "Replying to the Patriarch, I have already cultivated it to Minor Achievement. If I hide my cultivation, a 9th Layer Qi Refining Cultivator cannot see through my cultivation."

Li Luochen shook his head and said: "No need to hide it. The Fellow Daoist we are going to meet this time has already reached the Qi Refining 10th Layer in cultivation."

"You only need to reveal your normal cultivation. When you make a Breakthrough to the Qi Refining 10th Layer and Cultivate the first layer of the Heaven-Covering Technique to Major Achievement, you can then hide your cultivation."

Li Yanlong was also very smart. He knew why Li Luochen said this, and his gaze turned towards Li Luochen.

He hesitated for a moment and asked: "Patriarch, you have also cultivated the Heaven-Covering Technique, right? I wonder what level your cultivation has reached now?"

Li Luochen laughed and said: "Just slightly stronger than you, that's all—the Qi Refining 10th Layer."

He did not reveal his true cultivation, mainly because he was afraid that if the clansmen knew he had already achieved Foundation Establishment, they would start acting recklessly.

After all, there are not many Foundation Establishment powers within the region under the jurisdiction of the Qingsha Sect. If the Qianlong Li Family were to become a Foundation Establishment power, the mindset of the Li Family clansmen would definitely change.

It is better to just hide his cultivation and let the clansmen know that he is only at the Qi Refining 10th Layer.

After all, foundation establishment pills are not that easy to obtain; even for those Disciples of major Sects, it is very difficult to obtain a foundation establishment pill.

Sure enough, Li Yanlong showed an 'as expected' expression.

Ever since Li Luochen had the clansmen Cultivate the Heaven-Covering Technique, his cultivation had been stuck at the 9th Layer of Qi Refining.

The Li Family is not lacking resources now. Li Luochen would certainly not mistreat himself; it is impossible for him to let himself remain stuck at the 9th Layer of Qi Refining.

Everyone in the Li Family knows this, so they have been guessing Li Luochen's cultivation. Most of them guess that he has broken through to the Qi Refining 10th Layer; not one of them thinks he has already achieved Foundation Establishment.
