Hoe? God?

Night fell.

Xiao Ze arrived at a somewhat decent hotel.

He had originally wanted to stay at the Rose Hotel too, but the waiter's speechless look made him leave.

What was that supposed to mean?

Did you need a woman to stay at a couples hotel?

Xiao Ze sat on the bed and took out the ring Grandpa Xiao had given him.

The ring was also a Soul Tool, and there was only a single hoe inside it.

Xiao Ze took out the hoe.

It was a Green Hoe that emitted a green light, though the Green Light was extremely faint and flickered intermittently.

The entire hoe was covered in rust, and its wooden handle was split with spiderweb-like cracks, as if it would crumble to dust at the slightest touch.

"What exactly is this? Why is it like this?"

Xiao Ze was certain that this was absolutely not a common hoe. What kind of hoe would glow and have cracks like these?

There also seemed to be bloodstains on it.

Xiao Ze gently ran his fingers over the hoe.

The next moment, a faint force seemed to surge beneath his fingertips, making the hoe tremble slightly.

Xiao Ze jumped in fright and tossed the hoe onto the bed.

In an instant, an Illusory Figure appeared before Xiao Ze.

The light gradually gathered into a tall, simple-looking figure.

It was an Old Man dressed in Coarse Cloth Clothes, radiating an Earth Aura and holding a bundle of Rice Ears.

His eyes were filled with Compassion for All Beings.

Xiao Ze looked at him, unconsciously holding his breath as shock filled his heart.

This person clearly wasn't an Ordinary Person.

"Child, thank you for waking me," the Old Man said.

"Who are you?" Xiao Ze swallowed nervously and asked cautiously.

"You may call me the God of Agriculture."

"A god!"

"That's right, but I am not a god from your planet." The God of Agriculture let out a soft sigh.

"What do you mean?"

"No need to rush. I'll explain slowly."

The God of Agriculture sat on the bed, looking at the hoe with a gentle expression.

"I was the God of Agriculture from another planet. During the God Realm War, I died. I don't know why I ended up on your planet." The God of Agriculture's eyes were full of helplessness.

"You died?"

"Yes, we all died. Even the God Realm exploded."

"Then aren't you still alive?" Xiao Ze asked curiously.

"I am different from them. Most of them achieved godhood through Faith to Become God, while I became a god through Merit combined with Faith. The God Realm Planet shattered, and Faith dispersed. But Merit does not disappear. This phantom of mine is only a Body of Merit. It can merely keep me alive, but I do not possess a shred of Divine Power."

Hearing this, Xiao Ze became interested.

Since he had come to the Douluo Continent, he was definitely going to become a god.

If he could use Merit to Become God, that seemed quite good too.

It also suited his Martial Soul very well.

"Will the gods of this planet discover you?"

"Of course not. I no longer have any Divine Power." The God of Agriculture smiled.

"Can you be resurrected?"

"No. My Physical Body has already been shattered, leaving only my Spiritual Sense." The God of Agriculture shook his head.

"Then how did you appear?"

"Because of you."

"Me?" Xiao Ze pointed at himself.

"That's right, you. I am the God of Agriculture, and what I love most is Natural Life Force. You possess a very strong amount of that power. Your Natural Life Force attracted me and woke me from my slumber."

"I see."

"So, child, from now on, I may only be able to stay by your side." The God of Agriculture looked apologetic.

Xiao Ze hesitated. Although he said he had no Divine Power, Xiao Ze had no way of confirming that.

The God of Agriculture seemed to know what Xiao Ze was thinking and smiled. "Child, don't worry. If I wanted to harm you, I would have done so long ago.

I can teach you how to obtain Faith and Merit, and help you become a god. I can also teach you how to farm. The Martial Souls on your Douluo Star are quite interesting.

Especially your Martial Soul, Black Land. It is very suitable for my instruction."

Xiao Ze gritted his back teeth and made his decision.

The bold would feast while the timid starved.

It was just a god. It wasn't as though he could eat him.

"Alright."

Seeing Xiao Ze make his decision, the God of Agriculture laughed silently.

This child was rather interesting.

"Child, I have nothing else to give you. The cultivation methods from my world are unsuitable for your world, but I can give you this hoe."

"It is called the Fertility Hoe. It was the Divine Artifact I used to become a god, but now it is only a Demigod Artifact. If you become a god, you can forge it anew." The God of Agriculture brushed his hand over the Fertility Hoe, his eyes somewhat sorrowful.

Xiao Ze's breathing quickened.

My god!

It was actually a Divine Artifact. Though it was now a Demigod Artifact, it was still an incredibly powerful weapon for him.

"Then I'll accept it."

Xiao Ze put the Fertility Hoe into his Soul Tool.

"That is not how it works. Although the Fertility Hoe is now a Demigod Artifact, it was originally a Divine Artifact. You need to imprint it with your Spiritual Power. Afterward, you will be able to summon it whenever you wish."

The God of Agriculture then personally taught Xiao Ze how to place an imprint on the Fertility Hoe.

"I will live inside the Fertility Hoe from now on."

After saying that, Xiao Ze discovered that the God of Agriculture had entered his Sea of Consciousness.

"God of Agriculture, why did you come to my Sea of Consciousness?"

"To look at the Crops you have planted. They are all quite good. Your Martial Soul is indeed very interesting."

"If I were not a god from another planet, I would have wanted to pass my position on to you."

Xiao Ze did not know whether the Douluo God Realm had a God of Agriculture or a God of Nature.

Even if it did, they were probably not very powerful.

It would be better for him to use Faith and Merit to Create Own God Seat.

"Hm?"

Xiao Ze noticed that his Crops seemed to have become excited, and even their growth rate had increased greatly.

The Agricultural Sprites had all gathered around the God of Agriculture as well.

Why was that?

Seeing Xiao Ze's confusion, the God of Agriculture explained, "Although my Physical Body and Divine Power are gone, my Body of Merit contains quite a bit of Natural Life Force, which can allow them to grow quickly."

As he spoke, the God of Agriculture rubbed Suihua's head.

"What a cute little fellow."

"I see. Then, God of Agriculture, would you like to live here?"

The God of Agriculture chuckled. "You are using me to improve these little fellows."

Xiao Ze smiled awkwardly. Who told you to be such an incredible cultivation accelerator?

It had to be said that the God of Agriculture was truly very useful.

Perhaps his Agricultural Sprites could grow rapidly.

"Fine, I'll live here. I like this place very much." The God of Agriculture had no objections.

"Then thank you, God of Agriculture."

"Go on."

The God of Agriculture waved his hand and began working again, carefully tending Xiao Ze's Black Earth.

Although Xiao Ze was not bad at farming, he was still far inferior to the God of Agriculture.

If they had to be compared, Xiao Ze relied on brute force, while the God of Agriculture refined every detail with flawless precision.

After watching for a while, Xiao Ze learned quite a lot.

Even Suihua and the others learned many things from the God of Agriculture.

Xiao Yan had an Old Grandpa, and so did he. Sure enough, he was a Child of Luck.

He really had to thank Grandpa Xiao for giving him such a tremendous opportunity.
