32: Chapter 32 Foundation Building Level 3

"Five thousand catties?"

"Are you joking?"

"Ten mu of Level 2 spiritual fields, harvesting five thousand catties of white orchid fruit, a yield of five hundred catties per mu?"

When mentioning the yield of five hundred catties per mu, the beggar Immortal Master's voice grew quite loud.

"Is that for real?"

Watching a Golden Core True Person making a scene in front of him, Zhao Mo found it quite interesting, but his Face remained very serious.

"It is real."

Seeing Zhao Mo so resolute, the beggar Immortal Master was still half-skeptical.

"We'll let it slide this year, but when you harvest next year, I will definitely be watching from the side."

"Hmph, five hundred catties per mu, I don't believe a word of it."

Unless he saw it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe it.

"Alright, bring out the white orchid fruit."

"I will still pay you the same price as last year."

Zhao Mo said cautiously: "Immortal Master, of these five thousand catties of white orchid fruit, I can only sell you three thousand catties."

"Why?"

"Is someone buying it for a higher price than me?" As a Golden Core True Person, buying your things is giving you Face, and you dare to refuse to give me Face?

At the beggar Immortal Master's anger, Zhao Mo felt the pressure. A Golden Core True Person, with magical power infused, killing him would be too simple.

"No, no, it's just that I obtained a recipe for brewing wine, and I want to brew some myself." Zhao Mo hurriedly explained.

Yes, that's right, Zhao Mo had already claimed the System's reward.

The main ingredient for brewing the spiritual wine was the white orchid fruit.

"Brewing wine?"

"Just you, this wet-behind-the-ears kid?"

Well, Zhao Mo was almost fifty years old, but in the eyes of a Golden Core True Person who was hundreds of years old, he was truly just a wet-behind-the-ears child.

"Go ahead and brew it, go ahead. Once you hit a wall, you'll know to turn back."

"Bring out all the white orchid fruit."

Zhao Mo said: "Immortal Master, please come upstairs."

On the second floor of the Leisurely Residence, as soon as the door opened, a gust of cold air hit them.

"Level 2 Mustard Seed Formation, Level 2 Frost Formation."

"Did you set these up?"

Zhao Mo gave a bitter smile: "How would I have such skills? I hired someone to set them up."

"You certainly are willing to spend."

The beggar Immortal Master looked at Zhao Mo strangely. Zhao Mo was the first person he'd seen use a Formation to preserve white orchid fruit.

Moreover, these were two Level 2 Formations. Including Materials and labor, it wouldn't be possible to get them done without fifty or sixty Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

A Golden Core True Person's eye for detail was naturally impeccable. In reality, Zhao Mo had spent a full sixty Mid-Grade Spirit Stones to set up these two Formations, which directly emptied him out.

That was why he had to sell the white orchid fruit to save the situation.

Otherwise, based on his previous methods, Zhao Mo would definitely have used all these white orchid fruits to make spiritual wine.

"Huh, the size of these white orchid fruits is actually this big?"

"I'm starting to believe what you said."

The beggar Immortal Master picked up a white orchid fruit in the room and examined it carefully. This white orchid fruit was a full circle larger than ordinary white orchid fruit.

Taking a bite, the juice splashed everywhere, and the taste was actually better than ordinary white orchid fruit.

"Not bad, this is thirty Mid-Grade Spirit Stones."

The beggar Immortal Master waved his hand and collected them, and more than half of the white orchid fruit in the room disappeared.

"My name is Chen Yuxiang. If you have any trouble in the future, you can mention my name."

Zhao Mo was still in a daze, completely failing to understand what it meant for this old beggar to tell him his real name.

"Chen Yuxiang? Is he very famous?"

Zhao Mo shook his head and went straight to the cultivation room.

Outside the cultivation room, the "Cultivating" sign was constantly swaying. Zhao Mo sat on the meditation cushion and said softly: "System, improve my cultivation."

The numbers on the System panel retreated rapidly.

A huge amount of Spiritual Qi descended from the sky, surrounding Zhao Mo.

Zhao Mo, whose attention was already turned inward, did not notice the movement outside his body at all.

His energy was now entirely focused on his Dantian. As Spiritual Qi was continuously converted into True Qi, the True Qi was then transformed into True Essence under immense pressure.

Only when the newly formed True Essence merged with the True Essence in the Dantian could this cultivation process be considered complete.

As the cultivation continued to repeat, the True Essence in Zhao Mo's body became increasingly thick.

"Phew~"

"Finally finished cultivating."

Zhao Mo let out a long sigh of relief.

Foundation Establishment Stage Level 3. His Dantian was already one-third full of True Essence, and the rest was suspended True Qi.

"System."

【Farmer: Zhao Mo】

【Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Stage Level 3 (Experience points insufficient, cannot improve.)】

【Experience Points: 830 / 900】

【Reward: None】

Sure enough, after breaking through from Foundation Establishment Stage Level 3 to Level 4, the experience points also increased, from six hundred points to nine hundred points. An increase of three hundred points was still within Zhao Mo's tolerance.

"In that case, before the white orchid fruit harvest next year, I will be able to break through to Foundation Establishment Stage Level 4?"

Zhao Mo never expected that, as someone already at the Foundation Establishment Stage, his Breakthrough speed would actually be similar to the Qi Refining Stage.

"The Golden Core is in sight~"

Zhao Mo walked out of the cultivation room.

Outside the Leisurely Residence, Ox Martial had been looking at Zhao Mo's door the whole time.

"It's time to plow the fields, why hasn't he come out of seclusion yet?"

What Ox Martial didn't know was that Zhao Mo wasn't thinking about plowing the spiritual fields at all; his mind was entirely on spiritual wine.

"Crush the mutated white orchid fruit, add distiller's yeast and ferment for twenty-one days, and the spiritual wine will be made."

"The method for refining the distiller's yeast is: clean the enlightenment grass, chop it up, and mix it evenly with spiritual rice flour. Then prepare old distiller's yeast, crush it into powder, sprinkle it as a starter on the mixed Materials, and then roll it into small balls for fermentation."

"enlightenment grass? Old distiller's yeast?"

"Where can I find these two things?"

"Sigh, too hasty."

Zhao Mo had thought that brewing wine would be a very simple matter, but he didn't expect it to be so troublesome to operate.

No wonder True Person Yuxiang looked so surprised when he heard that Zhao Mo wanted to brew wine.

"What do you want enlightenment grass for?"

"Cultivator Ding, why do you walk without making a sound? You're going to scare someone to death."

Ding Xin appeared behind Zhao Mo silently, giving Zhao Mo a fright.

"Have you heard of enlightenment grass?"

Ding Xin nodded.

"I've heard my sister mention it. This enlightenment grass is generally consumed by Golden Core True Persons when they break through to the Nascent Soul True Lord stage, used to increase the chance of Breakthrough."

"Some people also use it to refine enlightenment pills."

"It is a very expensive Spiritual Plant."

Hearing Ding Xin say this, Zhao Mo's heart went cold. This was clearly a Golden Core-level Spiritual Plant, and its price was probably not something Zhao Mo could afford right now.

"You are only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, why are you asking about this?"

Zhao Mo didn't speak, but in his heart, he gave up on the idea of brewing spiritual wine.

"Nothing, just asking."

"By the way, there is some freshly harvested white orchid fruit in the room next door, you can taste the flavor."

...

【You have completed plowing the spiritual field, experience + 10.】

Since there was no hope of brewing spiritual wine, Zhao Mo could only turn his attention to the spiritual fields.

This finally satisfied Ox Martial's wish.

Seeing Ox Martial wagging his tail, without needing Zhao Mo to shout, he plowed the ten mu of spiritual fields very smoothly.

Then he returned to the cowshed to daze off.

Of course, this was Zhao Mo's perspective; in reality, Ox Martial had long been immersed in the power of the Law.

"Damn it, why is it always just a little bit short?"

Ox Martial looked at the spiritual fields with red eyes, wishing he could go and plow the spiritual fields again right now, to exchange for another chance to gain enlightenment.
