Mutant Chinese Cabbage, Mutated Rice
In the early morning, a thin mist hung over the fields.
On the Spirit Plant, glistening dewdrops clung.
"Coo coo!"
The Pearl Chicken's dark eyes darted around, searching for insects on the ground.
The yellow dog, Wangwang, lay down at the doorway, its two front paws crossed, its posture appearing extremely elegant.
With a creak, Xu Changqing, dressed, stepped out of the door and walked briskly towards the Spirit Fields, putting on his bamboo hat as he went.
Once he stood on the edge of the field, he spread his Spiritual Sense outwards.
Instantly, information about Spirit Rice, vegetables, Four-Leaf Clover, and other Spirit Plant appeared one after another.
[Immature]
[Undamaged]
[Abundant Spiritual Qi]
All the Spirit Plant were the same as yesterday, without any difference.
Upon seeing this, Xu Changqing's lips curled up into a smile.
For a Spirit Farmer, the happiest thing is when everything is normal.
However, he did not turn and leave.
Instead, they took off their shoes and entered the Spirit Fields barefoot.
It was a spring morning, and the temperature hadn't risen yet.
Therefore, the soil contains a slight coolness.
When disturbed by "outsiders," they all launched an attack.
However, Xu Changqing did not have Earth Spirit Root, so he was not afraid of the cold.
Soon, he arrived at a stalk of Spirit Rice.
Its height is approximately 1.2 meters.
Heavy ears of rice hung from them.
The rice grains were green and unripe.
At this moment, Xu Changqing raised his right hand, accompanied by the depletion of his spiritual energy.
The next second, a bluish light emanated from his right index finger.
Clearly, this is a low-level Law Technique [Verdant Touch Finger].
Lightly tap the Spirit Rice in front of you.
In an instant, the azure light found an outlet and surged forth wildly.
Instantly, the Spirit Rice's "delicate body" trembled.
Gradually, a faint blue light also appeared on his body.
It's visibly taller and straighter.
Unfortunately, there were no other changes.
"Let's try them one by one." Xu Changqing wasn't disappointed.
Next, he used his Verdant Touch Finger on each plant one by one.
Unfortunately, a one in a thousand chance is indeed quite low.
Ultimately, without exception, none of them mutated.
However, Xu Changqing still did not give up.
Because there are still cabbage, chili peppers, and Four-Leaf Clover that I haven't tried yet.
So, I patiently started working on these vegetables again.
Plant by plant location.
Failure after failure.
Before long, the chili peppers and Four-Leaf Clover were all taken care of.
Only a small number of Chinese cabbages remained, still "starving."
"My spiritual energy is almost depleted." Xu Changqing sensed his dantian.
If this were during the Qi Refining Realm, I would have already gone back to my room to rest after expending so much energy.
Now that Foundation Establishment Realm, my spiritual energy can sustain me for longer.
After thinking it over, he decided to order the rest of the cabbages.
But as I was clicking, a "ding" sound suddenly came from inside.
Xu Changqing thought it was a system notification, so he looked at the attribute panel.
But it turned out that nothing had changed at all.
No, to be precise, yes.
It means your remaining lifespan has decreased by a few days, which means you've aged a few more days.
Lamenting the fleeting nature of time, Xu Changqing once again searched for the source of the sound.
Ultimately, their focus settled on a large Chinese cabbage.
Because he wanted to finish quickly, he ordered very fast and didn't notice anything amiss.
I just realized that this cabbage is twice the size of the ones next to it.
There's one next to it.
It looks like a lump.
"Could it be..." Xu Changqing's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly enveloped the area with his Spiritual Sense.
The next second, information about the large cabbage appeared.
[Mature]
[Mutated Chinese Cabbage]
[Spiritual Qi content doubled]
[Pest resistance doubled]
"That's it?" Xu Changqing blinked.
This lucky cabbage received two effects.
One is premature maturity.
One is mutation.
However, no matter how things change, one fact remains unchanged.
That's water shield (Brasenia schreberi).
This thing is only used for stir-frying or pickling Chinese cabbage; it has no other uses.
Fortunately, this at Verdant Touch Finger is indeed effective.
Afterwards, Xu Changqing ordered all the remaining cabbages.
Once it was confirmed that there was only one mutated seed, it was immediately pulled out of the ground with a "pop".
Harvest 1 "Mutated Chinese Cabbage" plant; lifespan increased by 7 days.
It has a lifespan that is 4 days longer than that of normal Premium Vegetables.
"Wangwang, Pearl Chicken, today's breakfast is quite substantial." Xu Changqing held Mutated Chinese Cabbage in his hands, waved it at the two little ones, and then walked to the ditch to start cleaning it.
In no time at all, it was washed clean.
Of course, I didn't forget the mud stuck to my feet either.
Then I went to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast.
The sounds of "dudududu" rang out one after another.
The cutting board vibrated.
This cabbage even gained increased defense after mutating.
It wasn't so easy to cut it; it took a bit of effort.
Half an hour later, a delicious breakfast was ready.
Two fried eggs.
A plate of stir-fried chili peppers with Mutated Chinese Cabbage.
A pot of Mutated Chinese Cabbage Second-Grade Spirit Rice.
It may not seem like much, but it's actually much better than other Spirit Farmer.
Second-Grade Spirit Rice, others have to eat it sparingly.
Xu Changqing didn't skimp on food at all; he ate every meal.
Not to mention the mutated vegetables with even higher Spiritual Qi content.
"Coo coo!"
The Pearl Chicken hopped into the house and headed straight for the dining table.
It leaped up when it got close.
Just then, the yellow dog Wangwang rushed in, drooling.
Whether they didn't see it or did it on purpose, they simply elbowed the Pearl Chicken away.
Afterwards, he even gave Xu Changqing a fawning smile.
Its tail wagged incessantly, as if it were asking for praise.
"Gurgle~ Gurgle~"
The Pearl Chicken's calls were much softer.
They dared not approach any further.
Huddled in the corner, looking on pitifully.
"You guys!" Xu Changqing, both amused and exasperated.
However, he did not show favoritism.
Everyone gets a portion, and it's a large quantity that's enough to fill you up.
The first bite of the chili-stir-fried Mutated Chinese Cabbage was chewed.
Xu Changqing's eyes lit up immediately.
This Mutated Chinese Cabbage is crisp and refreshing.
One bite and the juices burst in your mouth.
Next up is the mutated cabbage Second-Grade Spirit Rice.
The flavor is also incredibly smooth and delicate.
The more you eat, the more delicious it becomes; the more you eat, the more you want to eat.
My stomach was full after the meal.
It contains a large amount of Spiritual Qi waiting to be refined.
Xu Changqing didn't wash the dishes; he went straight back to the wooden bed and sat cross-legged.
Then he activated the Evergreen Formula and began to refine the Spiritual Qi within his body.
Time passed steadily, and the refining was completed after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
The spiritual energy within his body has recovered, and has even increased slightly.
Xu Changqing clicked his tongue. "If I eat mutated vegetables and Mutated Spirit Grain every day, I feel like I can Foundation Establishment Perfection in less than ten years."
Unfortunately, while the Verdant Touch Finger technique is effective, the success rate is too low.
After washing the dishes, he quickly headed towards the Stone Mountain.
After all, there are still many Mutated Spirit Rice that haven't been tried.
As you get closer, a faint fragrance fills the air.
This is the unique flavor of the Mutated Spirit Rice.
The more mature it is, the stronger its flavor becomes.
Currently, Xu Changqing has no way to avoid this.
The good thing is that this place is very remote and sparsely populated.
They skillfully entered the cave and saw the Mutated Spirit Rice again.
The Mutated Mother Rice in the very center still shone brightly, appearing quite plump.
[Mutated Mother Rice]
[More Children, More Blessings]
[Spiritual Qi Cultivation]
[Domain One Zhang]
The entry hasn't changed much.
Xu Changqing felt it needed to be maintained for a long time.
Soon, his gaze fell on the rice seedlings beside him.
They are growing very well.
[Immature]
[Mutated Child Rice]
[No damage]
[Abundant Spiritual Qi]
No problem at all.
Xu Changqing decisively cast the low-level Law Technique [Verdant Touch Finger].
A rich blue light gathered at his fingertips.
We started with the Mutated Child Rice, one plant after another.
I don't know how much time has passed.
As I was clicking, a "ding" sound suddenly came from inside.
If I heard correctly, there seems to be a Mutated Child Rice... it's mutated!!!
