78: Chapter 78 Zhao Mo's Low Point

Tianfeng Valley.

Zhao Mo moved the fruit seedlings over, planted them, and prepared to grow the golden marrow fruit.

As for the ice cubes, because he had lost his magic power and couldn't use any Spells, he could only ask Tong Weiping for help.

"Why don't I just plant them for you?"

"The most important thing for you right now is to Cultivate and take care of your body."

Tong Weiping said as he watched Zhao Mo struggling.

Farming these thirty-six acres of third-grade spirit field with the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer could indeed be described as hard work.

Not to mention anything else, just digging a small hole in the ridge of the spirit field and planting a green core took Zhao Mo over ten minutes.

"Forget it, I'll do it myself. There will be plenty of times I'll need to trouble Senior Brother Tong in the future."

"As for the spirit field, how could I not plant it? It makes me uncomfortable to see the spirit field lying fallow."

The most critical thing was that Zhao Mo was now completely relying on the experience points from farming the spirit field.

If he didn't farm the spirit field, there would be no experience points, so when would Zhao Mo be able to recover his cultivation?

【You have completed the spirit field planting, Experience + 20.】

After a full month and a half, Zhao Mo finally finished planting all thirty-six acres of the spirit field.

"Damn it, I'm absolutely exhausted."

A month and a half was too long a span; by the time Zhao Mo finished planting the last green core, the golden marrow fruit he had planted first was already knee-high.

"Your cultivation?"

Zhao Mo was lying ungracefully by the side of the spirit field and was startled by the sudden appearance of Ding Xin.

"Why did you suddenly come out of seclusion?"

Ding Xin looked at Zhao Mo, her eyes red.

"When I was Cultivating, I always felt uneasy. After coming out of seclusion, Senior Sister told me that you had been attacked by people from the Liu clan."

"Who was it?"

"I'll go take revenge for you."

Zhao Mo was startled and quickly grabbed Ding Xin.

"They are all Nascent Soul True Lords. Are you sure you aren't just serving yourself up as a meal?"

"Besides, the Sect Master has already spoken about this matter. Out of respect for his Face, let it go."

"Let it go?"

"How can this be let go?"

"Is he senile?"

Zhao Mo: "Holy crap, you're this fierce? You're even calling out the Sect Master?"

Ding Xin said: "I don't care about him."

"You just wait. I'm going out to inquire. No matter who it is, I will make them pay the price. If I can't take revenge now, I'll remember it. In any case, I can't just live on in such a confused state."

"Don't be impulsive~"

Zhao Mo called out from behind.

But where could he still see Ding Xin's figure?

When it was almost dark, Ding Xin returned.

But the way she looked at Zhao Mo was strange.

"What's wrong?"

"Is there a flower on my Face?"

Or did my appearance change after Blood Drop Rebirth?

Zhao Mo didn't dare say the last part, but he touched his Face and even looked in a mirror.

"What is it?"

"I found out who attacked you."

"Who was it?"

"The two True Lords, Liu Yaozhen and Liu Yaoyang."

Zhao Mo: "These crazy people surnamed Liu are truly endless. Damn it, when I reach the Nascent Soul Realm, I will definitely take revenge on them."

"You don't have a chance."

Zhao Mo didn't react for a moment.

"What do you mean?"

"Liu Yaoyang self-destructed his Nascent Soul true spirit and has already disappeared from this world. Liu Yaozhen is suffering from the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, and only has ten years of life left. After ten years, he will be dead."

"Can you break through to Nascent Soul True Lord within ten years?"

Zhao Mo stopped speaking. He was only at the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer now. Breaking through to Nascent Soul True Lord in ten years? Maybe that was more realistic in a dream.

"Huh, that's not right?"

"Did they suffer retribution? Why did one self-destruct and the other suffer the Five Decays of Heaven and Man?"

"They didn't find someone to take the fall, did they?"

Zhao Mo remembered the two people who had attacked at the time; their Aura was magnificent and their magic power was abundant; they didn't look like people suffering from the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.

"No, according to witnesses, they declined within half a day."

"Now the whole Xuan Sect is talking about it."

"Saying that you possess Karma?"

Zhao Mo: "Karma?"

"Me?"

"Where?"

As he said this, he stood up and spun around in front of Ding Xin, but he didn't see anything.

Ding Xin said: "Yeah, I'm suspicious too."

"You spend all day either farming the spirit field or on the way to farm the spirit field. Can you really farm Karma out of a spirit field?"

The two were puzzled and just assumed it was a smokescreen released by the Liu clan.

"When my cultivation returns to the Golden Core, I will go see Liu Yaozhen. If it was really him who attacked, I'll be able to tell at a glance."

After all, the memory of those two halberd shadows and whip shadows was too deeply etched into Zhao Mo's heart.

Time passed leisurely.

In Tianfeng Valley,

Every day, besides staring at the spirit field, Zhao Mo would tease Ding Xin. However, his cultivation was too low now, so he couldn't fight her at all and was suppressed every time.

"Sigh, I'm really pathetic."

"Is it time to water the spirit field?"

"Using the Water Spirit Art?"

"How do I cast it?"

Zhao Mo had a bit of a headache.

"How about I just do it slowly myself?"

Teaching Ding Xin a Spell?

He would rather die; it was much harder than watering the spirit field himself.

"Oh, I don't want you to be so tired."

"Hurry up and tell me how to cast the Water Spirit Art?"

"What water spirit?"

"What does it look like?"

"I can't feel it?"

Zhao Mo spoke until his mouth was dry, while Ding Xin listened in total confusion.

Zhao Mo died inside.

When Tong Weiping appeared, the problem was finally solved.

Watching the water spirits continuously enter the spirit field, Zhao Mo felt a pang of heartache—he lost twenty experience points.

Li Feng did not appear this year, so naturally, there was no ash from the Three-Colored Deer. Furthermore, Zhao Mo had an ominous premonition that Li Feng was likely in grave danger.

...

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

Ding Xin in the spirit field became a streak of white light, holding a machete.

She was hacking away with gusto.

It made Zhao Mo break out in a cold sweat.

This girl is too savage.

During the dozen or so days of the golden marrow fruit's flowering period, Zhao Mo once again became a spectator, painfully losing two hundred and eighty experience points from pest control.

It wasn't that he didn't want to take action, but with his Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer cultivation, he couldn't even see the shadows of these Demon Worms.

"I'll handle the harvesting of this golden marrow fruit myself."

"You cannot interfere."

On the night before the golden marrow fruit harvest, Zhao Mo said seriously to Ding Xin.

"Got it."

The spirit field was Zhao Mo's, and the golden marrow fruit was planted by Zhao Mo, but for the watering and pest control in between, Zhao Mo hadn't lifted a finger.

And without the Three-Colored Deer ash for fertilizer, Zhao Mo was already feeling a bit hopeless about this year's System rewards.

【You have completed the golden marrow fruit harvest, Experience + 20.】

【Reward: After two hundred and nineteen days of care, your private spirit field has yielded a harvest, Experience + 800.】

The yield of golden marrow fruit this year was only three hundred and twenty catties per acre. The System's evaluation was just "harvest," so it was no wonder the experience was only eight hundred.

Although he had expected this year's reward experience to be low, Zhao Mo hadn't expected it to be this low.

"System."

【Farmer: Zhao Mo】

【Cultivation: Golden Core Sixth Layer (Insufficient experience points, cannot be upgraded.)】

【Experience Points: 2440 / 2500】

【Reward: None.】

"Damn it, I'm only sixty points short."

Zhao Mo stared at the System; the cultivation line still showed Golden Core Sixth Layer.

"I wonder if the System will refresh my cultivation after the experience points are enough?"

"If it refreshes back to Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer, how many levels of the Realm can my two thousand five hundred experience points break through?"

Zhao Mo couldn't quite remember; was the experience required when he broke through to the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer six hundred or nine hundred?

"Don't worry, I will protect you."

Outside, the cold wind was biting.

This was the only year since Zhao Mo came down the mountain that he hadn't had a cultivation Breakthrough.

Ding Xin hugged him and comforted him.

In the cow shed, Ox Martial had a strange expression.

"So? Little Mo is finished?"

"I didn't expect him to be done for so quickly."

"It's time for me, Ox Martial, to stand tall."
