New World: Starting as a Farmer, I'm Growing Devil Fruit!
Time Travel Mode: Random Replacement, Complete Replacement, Clone Replaces Main Body.
Seal: completely sealed.
Unlock condition: Meet the Plot Points!
Cheat Code: Infinite Passive Farming System, pulled from the Aura System. Since I'm a farmer, I definitely need a farming cheat code. It's activated and the system interface has been generated.
"Hiss!" Ling Yi curled up on the bed, the pain in his body causing him to hiss involuntarily.
Damn it, everyone else gets Binding System first when they transmigrate, but I get beaten up first.
Before they even understood what was going on, they were beaten half to a pulp by a few people.
After absorbing the original owner's memories, Ling Yi became even more depressed.
This world is a world of cultivation, and my identity is that of a farmer in this world of cultivation.
He wasn't an ordinary farmer; he was a farmer who specialized in cultivating spiritual herbs for the Ethereal Sword School.
Even so, this was a job that the original owner had obtained after spending all her savings and going through countless hardships.
The original owner of this body lacked the aptitude for cultivation, but possessed an unwavering desire to become an immortal.
It's not that ordinary people can't cultivate immortality. Even without Spiritual Root, they can still cultivate, but they need to put in more effort compared to those with Spiritual Root.
Those with Spiritual Root can cultivate immortality by directly absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and enter the Qi Condensation Realm in one step.
For ordinary people to cultivate immortality, they must first Meridian Condensation, then Spirit Condensation, and only then can they begin cultivating immortality.
The so-called "Meridian Condensation" refers to using one's own Qi and Blood to condense the meridians in the Dantian, and then using the meridians in the Dantian to draw upon the Spiritual Root.
However, this process is extremely arduous, and even for those with great perseverance, it is difficult to succeed without three to five decades.
Meridian Condensation is easy; as long as you have the right techniques and practice step by step, you'll eventually reach the point of Perfection Meridian Condensation.
However, Meridian Condensation and drawing in the Spiritual Vein is another major hurdle, with a success rate of less than 30%.
Each failure reduces one's vital Qi and Blood by a certain amount; if one fails to Spirit Condensation three times, there will be no possibility of Spirit Condensation again.
However, even if one successfully Spirit Condensation and Meridian Condensation to guide the Spiritual Root, the Spiritual Root within is only Pseudo Spiritual Root.
It's worlds apart from those with proper Spiritual Root.
To put it simply, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, even the worst Ninth Pin Mixed Spiritual Root can cultivate much faster than Pseudo Spiritual Root.
If we use car speed as a comparison, the speed of Ninth Pin Mixed Spiritual Root is 80 miles per hour, while the speed of Pseudo Spiritual Root is only 10 miles per hour, or even lower.
These are not the key points; the key point is lifespan.
Meridian Condensation takes thirty to fifty years, Meridian Condensation Spirit Condensation takes ten to twenty years.
After the Spirit Condensation, even with cultivation techniques and sufficient pills, it takes five to ten years for Ninth Pin Mixed Spiritual Root to reach the Qi Refining Realm.
Pseudo Spiritual Root, on the other hand, require about seventy or eighty years to develop.
So, if you calculate it this way, it would take an ordinary person at least 130 to 140 years to Qi Refining and become a formal cultivator.
Even if Spirit Condensation Realm, their lifespan is at most a hundred years. Even if one successfully Qi Refining within a few hundred years, their lifespan is still only one hundred and fifty years.
The process from Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment requires an even greater amount of time for someone with Pseudo Spiritual Root, as their lifespan is simply insufficient.
Reaching the Qi Refining Realm would likely mean becoming an old man nearing the end of his lifespan.
The original owner of this body went through all sorts of hardships and spent all her family's wealth to become a farmer at the Ethereal Sword School, all for one purpose: to obtain the cultivation technique.
This Meridian Condensation Art Technique can only be obtained by joining a cultivation sect.
Even the lowest-ranking farmer in a cultivation sect can receive the Meridian Condensation Art Technique.
As for why the original owner was attacked?
The reason is simple: he didn't offer any tributes.
Wherever there are people, there are conflicts of interest; wherever there are conflicts of interest, there is Jianghu and power struggles.
Each of the farmers, Ling Yi, was allocated a plot of Spiritual Field, which was used to grow Spiritual Field.
Ling Yi and his team's job was to take care of these spirit grains until they matured.
The Ethereal Sword School only harvests 500 catties of spirit grain from each Spiritual Field; any excess belongs to the farmer.
Under normal circumstances, a piece of Spiritual Field will have three to five catties of spirit grain left over, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
The farmer can sell these three to five catties of spirit grain to the sect in exchange for Spirit Stone. Spirit Stone can then be used to purchase various elixirs such as Fasting Pill and Meridian Condensation Pill.
The income from these three to five catties of spirit grain is just enough to sustain the farmer's daily needs.
But that's all.
One pound of spirit grain costs two Spirit Stone, one Spirit Stone, one bottle of Fasting Pill, and five Spirit Stone cost one Meridian Condensation Pill.
The spirit grain ripens every two months.
For example, Ling Yi can only take one Meridian Condensation Pill every three to five months.
Just last night, Ling Yi had just bought the Meridian Condensation Pill, but before he could even take it, it was snatched away by other farmers.
Why rob Ling Yi and not others? Because Ling Yi didn't pay protection money.
The so-called protection fee was one pound of Spiritual Rice per month.
The original owner of this body was stubborn and headstrong, refusing to hand over even a pound of Spiritual Rice, and then, she really did die!
He was beaten to death last night, which led to Ling Yi's transmigration.
Perhaps due to the time travel, Ling Yi's damaged internal organs and broken ribs have been repaired by mysterious energy.
However, the external wound is still there.
My body is covered in bruises, and even the slightest movement causes me excruciating, knife-like pain.
"These bastards, they really went all out!" Ling Yi felt a sudden thirst, and despite the pain in his body, he got up and scooped a ladle of water from the water tank.
After gulping it down in one go, he grimaced and sat back down on the edge of the bed.
"Damn it, can't you just fix everything?" Ling Yi looked at his swollen arm and the bruises on his stomach and said dejectedly.
"Seriously, I've already transmigrated, so where's my cheat system?"
As soon as Ling Yi finished speaking, a series of subtitles appeared in his mind, accompanied by a notification sound.
[Ding, the Infinite Passive Farming System is being activated...]
[Ding, the Infinite Passive Farming System has been activated.]
[Ding, Farming Space is now open. Loading user instructions...]
[Ding, system repository is open, loading user instructions...]
[Ding! Lottery Function activated. Loading user instructions...]
[Ding, system panel is being generated...]
[Ding, system panel generated, now accessible by thought.]
As the last comment disappeared and the ding sound stopped abruptly, some new information appeared in Ling Yi's mind.
A few minutes later, Ling Yi opened the system interface with a strange expression.
[ Infinite Passive Farming System Version 1.0 ]
[Cultivation Level: A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality ]
[Physical Exercise: Meridian Condensation Art ( Entry )]
[Skills: None]
[ Divine Ability: None]
[ Farming Space: 2 mu of Spiritual Field ]
[ Farming Warehouse: None (1000 Cosmic Cube )]
[Lottery draw: 1 time/month (draw attempts can be accumulated)]
"Wait, this is a cultivation world, bro! What the heck is this Farming System? Are you telling me to play Penguin Farm?"
"Just because we're farmers, you give us a Farming System? And why add the 'infinite passive' prefix? Couldn't you just call it Farming System?"
"Version 1.0? Are there going to be versions 2.0 and 3.0?"
The instructions state that the system was provided, but only a basic operating manual was given.
Following the instructions, Ling Yi opened the Farming Space.
Instantly, Ling Yi felt as if a small square farm had appeared in his mind.
The farm is quite large, probably around two thousand square meters.
In the middle are two black slabs of land, which have been turned over and prepared. Around the land are green slabs of grass.
Ling Yi's physical body cannot enter the Farming Space; he can only control it with his consciousness, which is quite convenient.
To do anything, all you need to do is think about it.
In the upper left corner of the Farming Space, there is a number "2" as a prompt, and there is also a number "2" as a prompt in the upper right corner.
According to the instruction manual, the "2" in the upper left corner represents a time multiplier, meaning that the time flow rate in the Farmland Space is twice that of the outside world.
The "2" in the upper right corner refers to the number of farmlands.
By consuming Spirit Stone, you can purchase time multipliers and additional farmland.
The time multiplier is 100,000 Spirit Stone plus 1. Ling Yi's entire fortune consists of only 3 Spirit Stone. It's too damn expensive. He can't afford it. He simply can't afford it.
The number of farmlands is increased by 1 for every 1,000 Spirit Stone.
Even a thousand Spirit Stone is no small sum!
Exit the Farming Space and enter the system warehouse.
The system repository is a Fangzheng, independent space, which is currently empty and contains nothing.
The system warehouse can store anything except Ling Yi's own body, including living beings.
However, the time in the system repository is frozen.
In the upper right corner of the system repository, there is also a number "1000", which represents the current space size.
Similarly, space can be increased by consuming Spirit Stone.
100 Spirit Stone, increase by 1 Cosmic Cube.
In Ling Yi's opinion, this was very cheap.
In the original owner's memories, a storage ring with a volume of 1 Cosmic Cube was worth more than 100,000 Spirit Stone.
Here in Ling Yi, 100 Spirit Stone can increase 1 Cosmic Cube; compared to that, it's dirt cheap.
After closing the system repository, Ling Yi opened the lottery interface.
What Ling Yi was most looking forward to was this lottery interface.
According to the system description, this lottery can yield various amazing seeds and farm-related items.
Ling Yi was very curious about exactly how the "miracle seed" was so magical.
As for farm equipment, Ling Yi estimated that it would most likely consist of things like fertilizer and pesticides.
The lottery interface is a circular spinning wheel.
The turntable is divided into nine sector-shaped areas, each of the same size but with different colors.
Each area Central City only one question mark.
In other words, you won't be given any hints what you'll draw.
"A magical seed... Hmm, is it possible that it's a seed from Peaches of Immortality tree or a ginseng fruit?" Ling Yi murmured, somewhat daydreaming.
Otherwise, could it be corn, soybeans, sorghum, or radishes, cabbage, and tomatoes?
Even if it were just these things, it wouldn't deserve the word "magical"!
With a thought, the lottery wheel began to spin.
With another thought, the speed of the lottery wheel began to decrease slowly.
Finally, the pointer landed on a red question mark area.
[Ding, congratulations host, you have obtained the Devil Fruit Tree Seed, which has been added to the system inventory.]
Ling Yi froze on the spot for three seconds, then exclaimed, "Wow, Devil Fruit?"
After exclaiming in surprise, Ling Yi instantly came to her senses and cautiously ran to the window. Only after finding that no one was around did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Upon reopening the system inventory, I saw a black cesium object with strange bright red cesium patterns, resembling a walnut, lying quietly in the inventory.
