98: Chapter 98 Flowers in a Level 4 Spirit Field
【 You have completed spirit field planting, EXP +20. 】
With Ding Xin helping out, Zhao Mo's work was not only easy but also looked great.
In the sky, patches of white clouds drifted by.
Ox Martial wagged its tail, strolling along the edge of the spirit field.
The occasional White Jade Bees flying past added a touch of spring atmosphere.
Zhao Mo felt that maybe this was what eternal life was like.
"Zhao Mo, come over quickly."
"Look at what this is?"
Ding Xin's voice rang out from the fourth-grade spirit field.
Zhao Mo walked closer to take a look. Surprisingly, a cluster of fresh flowers had grown next to the spirit seed in the fourth-grade spirit field.
These flowers were surrounded by a faint mist.
The petals presented an indescribable emerald green, as if carved from the purest jade, yet they were softer and more vivid than jade.
Each petal was inlaid with tiny golden patterns, like the brightest stardust in the galaxy, shimmering with a gentle, non-dazzling light.
"So fragrant."
Ding Xin said.
Zhao Mo smelled it too.
This fragrance seemed to rise from the heart of the flowers, wisps of elegant scent that seemed to carry a trace of immortal Qi. Smelling it made one's spirit feel refreshed, and one's Soul seemed to be purified.
"What flower is this?"
"How would I know? If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have even noticed them?"
"Strange, could it be a companion flower to this spirit seed?"
"Is it possible that it's a competitor?"
Just like how there must be an antidote around a snake den, all things in the world have mutual generation and restraint. Perhaps these spirit flowers were indeed restraining this unknown spirit seed.
"Regardless of whether it's mutual generation or restraint, just pull it out."
Zhao Mo intended to pull it out.
"Don't pull it. They are so beautiful; it would be a pity to pull them."
Ding Xin was a bit reluctant.
"By the way, doesn't Heartless Valley always need spirit flowers? Why don't you send this one over?"
Zhao Mo...
What kind of joke was this? If it didn't survive, wouldn't that be a slap in his own face?
However, he couldn't resist Ding Xin's soft nagging, so Zhao Mo ultimately dug up this cluster of fresh flowers and took them to Heartless Valley.
Heartless Valley, Heart-Having Hall.
Zhao Mo stiffened his face and held his head high. He felt that every time he came to Heartless Valley, it was a challenge.
Damn it, it was truly a test of a person.
"Wow, wow, wow."
"What flower is this?"
"So beautiful~"
"So fragrant."
"True Person Mo, what is this flower called?"
Now that Zhao Mo went out, the Face-Changing Heart-Swapping Art was essential, and he concealed his cultivation level for as long as possible.
"What's it called?"
Zhao Mo was stunned.
How would he know what it was called?
But looking at the name of the hall, a flash of inspiration hit him, and he opened his mouth to say: "sentimental flower."
Heartless Valley, Heart-Having Hall, sentimental flower—a perfect match.
As soon as the name sentimental flower was spoken, the group of beauties looked at Zhao Mo as if they were about to melt.
Among them, Chan Er was the most excessive; she was almost crawling onto Zhao Mo.
"Brother Mo, teach us how to grow flowers."
A single "Brother Mo" called away half of Zhao Mo's Three Ethereal Souls and Seven Corporeal Spirits.
"Alright, alright, alright."
"Come, I'll teach you."
After planting one flower, Zhao Mo snapped out of it. He looked at Chan Er with fear—what a powerful Spell. Even with his Nascent Soul cultivation, he had almost fallen for it.
"Alright, I have already taught you how to plant this flower. As for the rest, you can plant them yourselves. I shall take my leave now."
Zhao Mo fled in a panic.
"Hmph, coward, I wouldn't eat you."
Compared to last time, Chan Er was not only bigger, but her skin was also much thicker.
Outside Heartless Valley, Ding Xin looked at Zhao Mo with a smile.
"Not bad, True Lord Mo, you successfully passed the test."
Zhao Mo...
They were already an old married couple, yet she was still playing games? Just wait until I get back and see how I deal with you.
The night was silent, and the many positions disturbed Ox Martial's quiet cultivation.
"Pah, truly shameless, coming here every day, aren't you tired of it?"
As the harvest of the golden marrow fruit approached, Guo Tao finally sent the items Zhao Mo had ordered.
"Take a look, do you like it?"
Zhao Mo held a ribbon in his hand; this was the Magical Artifact that Guo Tao had spent months refining.
"This is the Dancing Sky Silk, refined using Nine Heavens cloud brocade and galaxy silk threads. Like my Iron Shovel, it is a ninth-grade Magical Artifact."
Ding Xin did not expect that Zhao Mo would give a Magical Artifact just like that. She was secretly happy; perhaps there would be no problem with the Lightning Tribulation.
"I like it, thank you!"
"Then tonight~"
"I'll follow your lead."
"Hehe."
He could unlock a few new positions again.
Actually, between Cultivators, the cultivation and fusion of the Soul should be the best, but Ding Xin was only at the Golden Core Realm, too far from Zhao Mo.
Their cultivation levels didn't match, and Zhao Mo had always had a soft spot for this kind of close-quarters combat.
Ding Xin could only indulge him.
...
【 You have completed spirit field pest control, EXP +20. 】
On Zhao Mo's iron stake was skewered a Demon Worm the size of a washbasin.
"These beasts, they won't cultivate into human form, right?"
These Demon Worms were really getting bigger and bigger, and their strength was naturally getting stronger.
【 You have completed spirit field pest control, EXP +20. 】
During the eighteen or nineteen days of the flowering period, Zhao Mo was basically in the spirit field, eliminating pests day and night, eventually gaining 360 EXP.
【 You have completed spirit field harvesting, EXP +20. 】
【 Reward: After 188 days of meticulous care, your spirit field has had a bumper harvest, EXP +2000. 】
"Very good, another 2000 EXP."
"It's a pity, not enough to advance to the fourth level of Nascent Soul."
【 Farmer: Zhao Mo 】
【 Cultivation: Nascent Soul third level (Insufficient EXP, cannot promote.) 】
【 EXP: 2700 / 3000 】
【 Reward: None. 】
The golden marrow fruit had already been put into the Storage Ring by Zhao Mo. Now, on the spirit field, there was a yellow layer—it was all tianfeng bean.
"I wonder if Lucky has arrived in the Song State yet?"
Lucky, who was being thought of by Zhao Mo, was currently in the Song State.
He did not go directly to Tianxuan Palace, but instead wandered around the Song State according to Zhao Mo's request. He wanted to understand Zhao Dun and Bai Shi's way of governing.
The Song State seemed to be living in peace and contentment, but the most discussed topic in the royal capital was the tianfeng bean.
Just because the Song State was the birthplace of hybrid rice, they had obtained massive resources while promoting it.
Now, tianfeng bean was becoming popular among the nations, but the Song State was strangely isolated.
Since the tianfeng bean had been circulating, the people of the Song State had never even seen one, let alone planted it.
For this reason, Zhao Dun had asked Tianxuan Palace for help several times.
Unfortunately, Bai Shi was also being targeted, and they had nowhere to turn for help. The two of them never connected the tianfeng bean with Tianfeng Valley.
"Palace Master Bai, what should we do now?"
"Should we go and ask the Fifth Brother?"
Zhao Dun had been a king for over a dozen years. His face had not become majestic but had become increasingly kind.
Just when the two were at their wits' end, Lucky appeared at the right time.
"Reporting to the King and Palace Master, a disciple claiming to be from Tianfeng Valley is requesting an audience."
"Tianfeng Valley?"
Zhao Dun and Bai Shi looked at each other, then suddenly realized.
"Quick, quickly invite him in."
"No, we will go and welcome him personally."
Lucky was only a Qi Condensation eighth-level Cultivator. Where had he ever enjoyed the treatment of being personally welcomed by a king and a Foundation Establishment Cultivator?
He was immediately filled with fear and trepidation.
"How dare I trouble the two of you to welcome me? This is too much for this small Cultivator."
"How could that be? You are a disciple of a Nascent Soul True Lord, what is too much? Quickly, please come in~"
After the three sat down, Bai Shi, as the host, asked first: "I wonder how to address you, Junior Brother? Is True Person Mo doing well recently? Did he send you to the Song State for something?"
Zhao Dun also looked at Lucky with a nervous face. The nations of the Xuan Sect were now spreading rumors that Zhao Mo had been seriously injured, and his cultivation had even dropped to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This was also one of the reasons why the Song State was isolated in the tianfeng bean incident.
