[ Devil Fruit Tree Seed: Occupies 1 acre of farmland, has a growth cycle of 60 days, and yields 8 random Devil Fruit upon maturity.]
Ling Yi forced himself to keep from bursting into laughter, but the upward curve of his lips was impossible to suppress.
Devil Fruit, huh? This is Devil Fruit.
Just how powerful are the Devil Fruit in One Piece? Think of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, the Phoenix Fruit, and so on.
Any one of them could make you Transcendent.
"However, two months seems a bit too long."
The world of cultivation is far too dangerous; people are quick to kill!
It seems I need to be as cautious and low-key as possible for the next two months.
It just so happens that Zheng Zhe's gang only comes to collect protection money once every Moon Spirit rice ripens.
I just came here yesterday, and I probably won't be coming back for at least two months.
And I happen to be short of those two months.
"No, these two months refer to the normal planting time. The time flow rate in the Farmland Space is twice that outside, so doesn't that mean the Demon Story will be ready in a month?"
Thinking of this, Ling Yi couldn't wait to move the Devil Fruit Tree Seed from the System Space to the Farmland Space.
They chose the plot of land on the left and planted it.
As Ling Yi planted the crops, the originally black fields suddenly churned and rolled.
Black, snake-like tree roots weave through the farmland, and the next moment, an ugly sapling with black and red stripes Kuku forth from the field.
In the blink of an eye, it grew to half a meter tall.
"Luckily, this Farmland Space is in my mind. If I had planted the Devil Fruit outside, the commotion would have been huge."
"However, this Devil Fruit Tree is truly ugly, dry and withered, not even a single leaf."
"By the way, does this thing bloom? Does it need pollination to bloom?"
As soon as Ling Yi finished speaking, eight dark red, wrinkled fruits sprouted from the Devil Fruit Tree, just like bubbles.
Each fruit had a unique entry on it.
[ Ice-Ice Fruit: Maturation cycle: 59 days 23 hours 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
[ String-String Fruit: Maturation cycle: 59 days 23 hours 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
[ Tremor-Tremor Fruit: Maturation cycle: 59 days 23 hours 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
[ Gum-Gum Fruit: ripening cycle, 59 days 23 hours 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
[ Flower-Flower Fruit: Maturation cycle: 59 days 23 hours 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
[ Arms-Arms Fruit: Maturation cycle, 59 days 23 hours 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
[ Huge-Huge Fruit: Maturation cycle: 59 days, 23 hours, 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
[ Chop-Chop Fruit: Maturation cycle, 59 days 23 hours 59 seconds, 58 seconds, 57 seconds...]
Ling Yi swallowed hard, his mind filled with only one thought: Oh my god, oh my god, it's all my god.
They even have Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit! Ling Yi knows just how terrifying that Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
Putting everything else aside, this one Tremor-Tremor Fruit alone is of immeasurable value.
Take a deep breath and force yourself to calm down.
While Devil Fruit are powerful, they also have drawbacks.
It is sensitive to seawater, and each person can only take one.
I wonder if these drawbacks still exist in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
He shook his head. It was too early to think about these things now; he'd wait until the Devil Fruit matured before making any decisions.
At this moment, Ling Yi Light Lock on another plot of farmland in another Farming Space.
The lottery page has run out of chances; you'll have to wait until next month.
But this field can't just sit idle.
"I wonder if Spiritual Rice can be grown in the Farming Space."
Ling Yi suddenly stood up, but then nearly fell, wincing in pain. The sudden movement aggravated his injuries, and a sharp pain shot through his body.
" Zheng Zhe, you little Laozi, I'll kill you sooner or later."
Trembling, Ling Yi walked to the wooden table, opened the drawer, and took out a bag of Spiritual Rice seeds.
Although there's only a small bag of these Spiritual Rice seeds, it still requires one Spirit Stone.
Can't mature Spiritual Rice be used as seeds?
No, it's not possible.
All Spiritual Rice can only be harvested once. If you want to continue planting, you have to go to the servant deacon and buy more Spiritual Rice seeds.
The sect is probably Mind Stone rice seeds being leaked, right?
With a thought, Ling Yi conjured the cloth bag containing the Spiritual Rice seeds in the Farming Space.
As Ling Yi gave the planting order, the cloth bag Shattering, and all the Spiritual Rice seeds automatically scattered into the farmland.
Furthermore, the spacing between each seed is exactly the same, making it a pleasing sight to behold.
This process is just like One-Click Planting when playing a farm game.
The key is that it doesn't need watering, fertilizing, or even any care at all.
Once you plant them, just wait to harvest them.
It couldn't be more convenient.
After a few breaths, one by one, green rice seedlings sprouted from the ground.
On each of the Spiritual Rice seedlings, a line of text appeared.
[ Spiritual Rice: Maturation cycle, 59 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds...]
"The time flow in the Farming Space is twice that outside, which means that a batch of Spiritual Rice can be harvested in one month."
"From now on, we'll hand over the Spiritual Rice we grow outside, and harvest the rice from our own Farmland Space. We'll get a thousand catties of Spiritual Rice for free every month."
"That's equivalent to earning a thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stone each month." Ling Yi's expression was somewhat excited.
"A thousand Spirit Stone can open another Spiritual Field. In this way, the snowball will grow bigger and bigger, Laozi will never lack Spirit Stone again."
But after a moment, Ling Yi calmed down.
"But if I sell Wu Bai of Spiritual Rice every month, it will inevitably arouse suspicion."
Ling Yi was certain that if he sold Wu Bai of Spiritual Rice every month, he wouldn't even know how he died.
A few pounds of Spiritual Rice can be fatal.
Let alone Wu Bai?
"Even if we're selling Spiritual Rice, we have to wait until the Devil Fruit mature and we have a certain level of self-defense capability."
"Furthermore, we absolutely cannot sell to any sect. It seems there's a market town about fifty miles south of the Ethereal Sword School. We can change our identity and sell directly there."
Before we knew it, dawn was breaking.
Ling Yi ate a Fasting Pill, endured the pain in his body, and left his wooden hut.
He needs to go to the servants and buy a few more portions of Spiritual Rice seeds.
The sect doesn't restrict the purchase of Spiritual Rice seeds.
If someone were to buy in large quantities, the sect would be even happier.
For a sect, a Spirit Stone and a bag of Spiritual Rice seeds are practically a risk-free business; the more they sell, the happier the sect is.
Moreover, Spiritual Rice seeds have a shelf life. These things have undergone special treatment by the sect, and if they cannot be planted within seven days, they will rot and spoil.
The sect has many servants and stewards, most of whom are outer disciples who have already Qi Refining but Spiritual Root are not very aptitude.
Each servant is responsible for a different area.
Ling Yi and his group live in the eastern region of the Spiritual Rice cultivation Eastern District, which comprises over a thousand acres of Spiritual Field and more than a thousand Spiritual Rice rice farmers.
The servant in the Eastern District, named Xiang Hao, is said to be at the Qi Refining, Third Level Refining, and is now over a hundred years old, with virtually no chance of breaking through to Foundation Establishment.
Most menial servants and stewards are basically just coasting along, waiting to die.
If you lack the aptitude to reach Foundation Establishment, you won't live more than a few decades, and you're unwilling to leave the sect. So, aren't you just wasting your life waiting to die?
When Ling Yi arrived at the steward's courtyard, he saw the steward with the Xiang Hao sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.
In front of Xiang Hao Xianghao stood a handsome but thin young man dressed in coarse cloth.
Good heavens, someone actually got up earlier than him this early in the morning.
Ling Yi did not approach, but stood at a distance.
Who knows if the two sides are discussing some kind of conspiracy or scheme?
In situations like this, it's best to stay away and avoid getting too close.
Ling Yi couldn't hear what they were saying, but it was mostly the boy talking; Xiang Hao only occasionally shook his head, looking impatient.
At a certain moment, Xiang Hao seemed to have heard something extraordinary and suddenly stood up.
Finally, something was handed to the boy, who then bowed, turned, and left the steward's courtyard.
As he passed by Ling Yi, he merely glanced at Ling Yi casually before Haste leaving.
Ling Yi didn't take it to heart and was about to walk into the courtyard.
Then, the boy's cheerful voice could be Yinyin heard behind him. "Yes, yes, we Yu Cheng!"
The sound of footsteps gradually faded into the distance.
Ling Yi took two steps toward the courtyard gate, but suddenly stopped.
Something just doesn't feel right!
But right now, Ling Yi was more anxious about the Spiritual Rice Spiritual Rice; everything else could wait until after he bought them.
"Greetings, Deacon Xiang. I'm here to buy Spiritual Rice seeds," Ling Yi said, bowing respectfully to Xiang Hao.
Xiang Hao didn't waste any words. These past two days were the time when these farmers would come to buy Spiritual Rice seeds, so it wasn't surprising. It was just that this person had arrived a little early.
However, Xiang Hao greatly admired Ling Yi's proactive move away from the people in the courtyard when he saw them.
This at least proves that the young man in front of us is a smart person with good judgment.
Xiang Hao took out a bag of Spiritual Rice seeds from his storage bag and threw it directly to Ling Yi.
" Deacon Xiang, I'd like to buy three bags." Ling Yi said, taking out all his possessions—three Spirit Stone —from his robes and placing them on the table.
"Do you know that Spiritual Rice seeds will rot if they are not planted in the Spiritual Field within seven days?" Xiang Hao frowned and reminded him.
"I plan to cultivate some more land behind the mountain and plant more crops."
Xiang Hao scoffed, "Another pipe dream. Do you even know what Spiritual Field is, or what Spiritual Rice is? Why must Spiritual Rice be planted in Spiritual Field?"
"Ordinary fields have scarce Spiritual Qi, which is simply insufficient to provide enough Spiritual Power for the Spiritual Rice to grow. You're just wasting your time."
"I'd like to give it a try; at most, it'll just be a waste of two Spirit Stone."
Xiang Hao stroked his beard, too lazy to persuade him any further, and simply took out two more bags of Spiritual Rice seeds and tossed them to Ling Yi.
"Thank you, Deacon." Ling Yi clasped his hands in a fist salute, then turned and left.
Not far from Xiang Hao's steward's courtyard, Ling Yi stopped again.
"Yes, yes? Damn, I was wondering what was wrong with that. Isn't this just English? Could that kid be a time traveler too?"
