Chapter 83
To give an analogy, the Thousand-Hand Flower that attacked people wildly yesterday was a ferocious tiger, while the Thousand-Hand Flower in front of us is more like a man-made mechanical tiger.
The Little Ox stopped Thousand-Hand Flower's movements, and Thousand-Hand Flower stood there blankly, as if it were not plugged in.
Li Yang wielded his knife with swift motion, which also expended some of his energy, but it was far easier than killing the ferocious Thousand-Hand Flower.
She kept her attention focused, carefully observing the presence of the seeds.
Li Yang wanted to harvest the plants and also keep the seeds, but she didn't know if it was possible.
[Lifespan +100 years.]
This Thousand-Hand Flower plant is also at the Third Grade Realm.
Li Yang not only received Lifespan Points, but also felt the budding excitement of breaking through to a higher realm once again.
However, the feeling was faint, and she was still in no hurry to break through to the next level.
Although these Third Grade Star Plant were of very poor quality, quantity can lead to quality. Li Yang felt that if she collected them a few more times, she might really have to use this strange method to break through her cultivation level.
Li Yang looked at the harvest she had made.
"Thousand-Leaf Flower... seems to be a medicinal herb for alchemy?" Li Yang wasn't sure, so he put it into his Qiankun Bag first.
She had been very careful to avoid the seed, and after the harvest, she actually managed to keep this one.
It remains yellowish-brown, and she needs to expend her lifespan to breed it. After breeding is complete, the seeds will turn snow-white.
The Little Ox couldn't help but exclaim, "My lord..."
"It's my younger brother."
Little Ox: "... You're amazing." He couldn't bring himself to say it; calling him "little brother" was just too difficult!
Li Yang didn't force him, but she would keep reminding Little Ox until he got used to it.
At night, in preparation for battle, Li Yang would revert to her original form, and spend the rest of the time with him in her Little Ox form.
Only when the Little Ox is completely accustomed to it will it not be exposed when it encounters other human players.
Before coming to the Divine Miracle, Li Yang had imagined many possibilities, but he never expected that he would end up planting crops in the Divine Miracle.
The Star Plant and Star Beast associated with this Divine Miracle are quite strange.
They rarely ventured out during the day, and apart from a few on the first day, no Astral Realm creatures appeared in the following days.
But at night, those frenzied Astral Realm creatures, as if they had smelled something, rushed towards the house where Li Yang was.
The Little Ox said, "It's never been like this before..."
Li Yang murmured, "Is it because of me?"
The Little Ox said, "That's possible. They all like to devour powerful humans."
Li Yang: "..." Okay, at least it saves her the trouble of going out to find Star Plant.
In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.
Li Yang's backyard is almost completely filled with Star Plant.
She not only gained a longer lifespan, but also broke through her cultivation level and accumulated a large amount of materials.
Under Li Yaowan's forceful indoctrination, Li Yang learned many elixir formulas.
Unfortunately, she didn't have the habit of carrying a pill furnace with her, nor was she willing to waste her lifespan refining it, so all these materials were just left here empty.
Li Yang started missing Jiang Yuqing again.
If this guy were here, he could definitely provide her with a large number of pills, which would increase the efficiency of planting Star Plant several times over.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yuqing was also thinking about Li Yang.
Compared to Li Yang, who only occasionally thought of him, Jiang Yuqing missed her day and night, to the point that he almost lost his appetite.
Since gaining a large amount of Shock Points from Li Yang last time, Jiang Yuqing returned to the Star-Slaying Military Academy and went into seclusion to cultivate, improving in all aspects.
He later went to see Li Yang again.
However, Li Yang was busy farming and didn't have time to pay attention to him, so he couldn't generate Shock Points for him.
Jiang Yuqing also reflected on the matter and felt that he couldn't hand over the initiative to collect Shock Points to others; he still needed to find another way to collect Shock Points.
So for the past few months he's been trying to shock people.
However, the results were minimal.
The Shock Points I've accumulated over all this time are less than what I get from being easily startled by Li Yang.
The problem is that Li Yang has been too quiet lately, refusing to go out and cause any trouble no matter what. Even when he paid for the Fast-Acting Star Recovery Pill to visit, nothing happened.
It wasn't until news of Si Kui's slaying of the Divine Venerable reached Star-Slaying Military Academy that the situation changed.
Jiang Chunhua said to Jiang Yuqing, "My disciple, this is Li Yang's teacher!"
Jiang Yuqing: "!!"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 100 points.]
The long-awaited message brought tears to Jiang Yuqing.
He's been trying to find someone to shock him lately, but no one has worked. Even though what those people did was indeed shocking, he just couldn't generate Shock Points.
Jiang Yuqing suspected that Li Yang had raised her threshold for shock.
After all, no matter how great other people's achievements are, they can't compare to what that guy does casually.
Jiang Chunhua said something quite crucial, "It would be good for you to get closer to Li Yang."
Jiang Yuqing: "?" He thought the teacher had figured something out.
Jiang Chunhua said, "She is Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer, possessing great fortune. The more you get closer to her, the better your own Heavenly Fortune will become."
Jiang Yuqing was stunned for a long time, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Could it be that he can generate his own Shock Points because of Li Yang's Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer status?
Admittedly, what Li Yang did was quite astonishing.
But before meeting Li Yang, Jiang Yuqing's shock threshold had not been raised, and he still had never experienced Shock Points from himself.
The teacher's words were like a wake-up call.
Jiang Yuqing unexpectedly came to a realization.
After the Divine Miracle was completed, Jiang Yuqing also obtained the qualification to enter.
Star-Slaying Military Academy was placed at the very back, so he couldn't see Li Yang at all.
But he wasn't in a hurry, thinking that once he entered the Divine Miracle, his first goal would be to find Li Yang.
However, Jiang Yuqing have been here for seven days and have seen many people come and go, but they still haven't seen Li Yang.
His Spirit Points was high, and he was constantly scanning, so he unexpectedly overheard something he shouldn't have.
"Still haven't found Li Yang?"
"No!"
"Boss, this guy seems to have vanished into thin air!"
"Didn't she come to Divine Miracle?"
"Impossible! She must have come in; I saw her come in with my own eyes!"
"But..."
"No buts, keep searching! We must find Li Yang before those lunatics from the Descending Star Cult. If they get there first, we'll get nothing."
"Good!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuqing couldn't help but follow the group.
Why are they looking for Li Yang?
These people don't sound like good people.
What shocked Jiang Yuqing even more was that there were actually members of the Descending Star Cult in this Divine Miracle?
Wasn't the Descending Star Cult destroyed?
Why are they looking for Li Yang? Is it for revenge?
Chapter 83
Jiang Yuqing quietly followed the group.
An individual's energy is limited, but the energy of a group of people is enormous.
He always felt that if he followed this group of people, he might be able to find Li Yang.
However, Jiang Yuqing only had clumsy undercover experience and no real tracking experience. And these people were clearly not to be underestimated. After sneaking around for a while, he lost them.
However, Jiang Yuqing were not discouraged, as they had managed to uncover some clues.
The fact that everyone on the periphery has searched the entire area proves that Li Yang's hideout may be even deeper inside.
Therefore, he decided to risk venturing into the inner city.
After searching the Divine Miracle for so many days, Jiang Yuqing have roughly figured out the surrounding situation.
Most of the Divine Miracle seekers were teleported to the outskirts of the ruined city.
The Astral Realm creatures surrounding the Divine Miracle have also been largely eliminated by the explorers working together.
Of the more than one hundred people who entered the Divine Miracle, not all of them wanted to find the Divine Miracle Core.
Many people are only interested in improving their cultivation level; only those exceptionally powerful Heavenly Chosen from aristocratic families would dream of finding the Divine Miracle Core.
Of course, finding the Divine Miracle Core is necessary.
If they can't find the core, they'll be trapped here.
There's no rush in the early stages; everyone is more eager to seize the opportunity to improve themselves.
Jiang Yuqing could improve themselves by fighting Astral Realm creatures, but compared to cultivating with Shock Points, this was far too slow.
Moreover, as an alchemist who was "too weak to even kill a chicken," he was not good at fighting.
Therefore, Jiang Yuqing had only one goal: to find Li Yang.
But Li Yang is so hard to find!
Seeing that he had lost track of the group, Jiang Yuqing gritted his teeth and headed towards the inner perimeter of the Divine Miracle!
Meanwhile, a few people from the Agronomy Department were also considering going to the inner city of the Divine Miracle.
Of course, their motivations were different.
As timid as Zhong Kun and Yu Hongyuan were, they felt there were too many people on the outside, and everyone looked like a bad guy. They didn't dare to get close to anyone. After holding back for a week, they couldn't hold back any longer!
They didn't know they were heading to the inner city; they were simply running towards areas with fewer people.
Warlike Lin Zhaoqin and Fang Chuyun didn't want to "compete for monsters" with others on the outskirts, so they headed towards areas with more Astral Realm creatures, naturally leading them towards the inner city.
The three old farmers, however, had endless worries. They were concerned about their junior brothers and sisters, always feeling that Lin Zhaoqin, Fang Chuyun, and Li Yang were the type to rush into danger wherever it was possible... After some simple reasoning, the old farmers decided they had to go and take care of them, so they also headed towards the inner city.
As for Ying Qi, she was very lucky; she met up with Shen Shangchi the very next day.
Ying Qi's goal was clear. "I need to find the core!"
Shen Shangchi was happy to help her, so the two of them headed towards the inner city.
Wang Ruika, the only exception, was a lazy bum. He was the only student majoring in the Spirit Department during this Divine Miracle journey... not just students, but no other rogue cultivators specialized in the Spirit Department either.
Therefore, he was very self-aware, and as soon as he entered the Divine Miracle, he found a place that was more like a dog hole than a dog hole, and honestly sat down to meditate.
