Chapter 161

Jiang Yuqing remorse!

He regretted not going into seclusion first; if he had followed Li Yang directly to the Sand Fruit Realm Domain, he could have gained so many Shock Points!

However, we have gained a lot, but compared to being there in person, it's several times less!

Jiang Yuqing beat his chest and stamped his feet, saying, "It's my fault, it's my fault for being so useless!"

Li Yang: "?" Sometimes she couldn't keep up with Jiang Yuqing's thought process and really didn't understand what this guy was going crazy about.

Jiang Yuqing said with a long face, "It's because I'm not talented enough to keep up with you!"

Li Yang: "..." He's a good comrade if you don't mention talent, but once you do, she doesn't want to talk to him anymore.

Li Yang focused intently on the earth-elemental Star Core, consuming his lifespan to appraise it.

Star Skill Name: Earth Shield.

Star Skill Grade: Fifth Grade.

Star Skill Description: Consumes Power of Starlight to draw upon Earth Elements and form an indestructible shield.

Jiang Yuqing asked impatiently, "What is it? What did it reveal?"

Li Yang looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Earth Shield..."

Jiang Yuqing almost jumped up. "Holy crap, we actually made it!"

[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 5000 points.]

Li Yang finished speaking, "The shield of a shield."

Jiang Yuqing: "..."

[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]

Jiang Yuqing's emotions were so intense that her voice trembled. "Sister Yang, don't tease me."

Li Yang asked leisurely, "Have any Shock Points been added to your account?"

Jiang Yuqing: "!"

He quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes! I really do!"

Li Yang: "So..."

Jiang Yuqing said proactively, "Please continue to tease me next time!"

Li Yang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Right now, with only one Sand Fruit Tree, it's definitely not that easy to activate the Earth Escape Technique. But once we plant it on a large scale, there's still a chance."

Jiang Yuqing nodded vigorously, full of anticipation. "Yes, yes, yes!"

[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 1000 points.]

He knew about the Sand Fruit Clan's Earth Escape Technique, a powerful innate Star Skill. If the Huaxia Heavenly Palace could master it, they wouldn't have to be as passive as before should there be any future wars.

If we can assemble a surprise attack team using Earth Escape Technique a type of magic that allows one to escape from the ground), we can catch the enemy off guard.

However, Li Yang was prepared. She said, "The drop rate for this Earth Escape Technique is probably not high. I'll ask the Star Nexus Pavilion later to see if they're interested in buying them all."

[Shock Points from Jiang Yuqing +2000 points.]

He followed Li Yang's train of thought and said, "That makes sense. This is a very important strategic resource. If it could be secretly cultivated, the effect would be even more amazing!"

Li Yang currently lacks the capacity to organize such a force.

But the Star Nexus Pavilion has it.

She wouldn't mind selling the Earth-type Star Core to the Star Nexus Pavilion as a package.

Since we're selling anyway, as long as the price is fair, that's fine.

There are still Shiyi marquises in the Star Nexus Pavilion.

Behind every marquis is a powerful family. If the price offered by the Marquis of Wind Pavilion does not satisfy Li Yang, she can let them bid publicly.

Jiang Yuqing were completely satisfied.

He gained a large amount of Shock Points in one go and wanted to go into seclusion again.

At Li Yang's cultivation speed, he will soon reach the Sixth Grade Realm.

His current Fifth Grade Realm is simply not enough.

However, Jiang Yuqing needed to confirm Li Yang's itinerary first. If she was going to some minor Realm Domain again, he would rather not go into seclusion and follow her.

Knowing his thoughts, Li Yang said, "Go into seclusion with peace of mind. I won't be leaving the Huaxia region for a while."

Jiang Yuqing looked at her expectantly. "If you go out, please be sure to call me."

Li Yang said, "The next time I go out, I should be at the Peak Fifth Grade Realm, breaking through the realm through battle."

Jiang Yuqing: "Take me with you! You must take me with you!"

Li Yang: "Go into seclusion in the smaller Realm Domain first, I'll call you later."

Jiang Yuqing was relieved and asked, "Do you need Star Soul Pill? I'll refine some for you first."

Li Yang really needs a batch of Star Soul Pill, not for her own consumption, but as a reward for the sword spirits.

"Okay," Li Yang said, "You can just leave it at the Nature Pavilion."

Jiang Yuqing replied promptly, "Alright!"

He could refine pills incredibly fast, in the blink of an eye.

However, he didn't have enough materials for Star Soul Pill in his Qiankun Bag, so he had to go back to the Jiang Family to ask them for a batch of materials.

The Jiang Family was also at a loss. In order to win over a Heavenly Fortune Bearer in the Alchemical Dao Department, they had long promised to cover all his alchemy materials.

He never expected that the materials his family needed for their Heavenly Fortune Bearer were so specific and so large.

It's either Fast-Acting Star Recovery Pill...

It's either Star Soul Pill...

Especially the Fast-Acting Star Recovery Pill; it's fortunate that it's from the Jiang Family. Any other family specializing in pills would have difficulty supplying such a large quantity of materials.

Jiang Yuqing were perfectly justified.

He needs these materials for his spiritual practice!

Although he gave all the refined pills to Li Yang also gave him Shock Points!

This is his path of cultivation!

Li Yang and Little Ox's family began planting Sand Fruit Tree.

100 jin of Deep Star Water can probably plant ten Sand Fruit Tree.

It wasn't that they only planted ten trees, but rather that only these ten Sand Fruit Tree produced earth-type Star Core;

Although other soils also contained a small amount of Deep Star Water, the content was probably too low to produce earth-based Star Core.

The drop rate for Earth Escape Technique is indeed very low.

Almost every one of the ten Sand Fruit Tree dropped an earth-type Star Core, but none of them activated the Earth Escape Technique.

The drop rate of binary Star Core is also relatively low.

It takes five or six Sand Fruit Tree to produce one binary Star Core.

Li Yang actually managed to get an Earth Scythe of Ice.

However, the results were not what she had imagined.

It wasn't that the sickle was moving through the soil, but rather that it created a splashing effect.

The attack unleashed Scythe of Ice, accompanied by earth-based splash damage.

If this splashing effect is utilized properly, it can be incredibly effective for harvesting Sand Fruit.

Using the Scythe of Ice could potentially damage the Sand Fruit Tree.

Like the first Sand Fruit Tree, even though Li Yang was very careful, the trunk of the Sand Fruit Tree was still swept by the Scythe of Ice, and it took some effort to take care of it afterwards.

Li Yang obtained an Earth-type Star Core, and good news also came from Li Yaowan's side.

"We've already made 5,000 pieces; we can transport a batch of Lost-Knowledge Sword Spirit to the Sand Fruit Realm Domain now."

Li Yang's spirits lifted, and he said, "I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Li to make a trip to the Sword Spirit Boundary Domain. I'll go to the Sand Fruit Realm Domain first to talk to Jiang Yue."

The cleanup of the Sand Fruit Realm Domain is also progressing steadily.

Jiang Yue is currently extremely busy.

Since Ke Li Yang wants to mine Deep Star Water on a large scale, he has to sign a contract with the Sand Fruit Realm Domain.

Suddenly, Li Yang's identity card lit up, and an urgent message came through. "Attention East District! A beast tide is about to attack!"

Chapter 161

It has been quite a while since the last beast tide.

Recently, other outer cities of the Huaxia Heavenly Palace have also been attacked by beast tides, but the eastern district has been quite lucky and hasn't experienced a second one.

Li Yang has been too busy lately and has completely forgotten about this.

Today's Nature Pavilion is not what it used to be; it no longer fears mere beast tides.

However, Li Yang wanted to turn the outer city of the eastern district into a new plantation, and if the beast tide came, it might accidentally damage these crops that would not attack on their own.

It would be possible for the Plow Ox Clan to plant a patch of actively attacking Star Plant on the outskirts, but this would delay their Plow Ox Clan cultivation and also occupy their limited land.

Therefore, upon hearing the news of the approaching beast tide, Li Yang's brows furrowed.

However, this beast tide is very difficult to eradicate.

The beast tides originate from the Astral Realm void. Unless the Huaxia Heavenly Palace changes its coordinates, it will have to face these overwhelming beast tides from time to time.

The coordinates cannot be changed.

After that great battle, the Star Nexus Pavilion exhausted the power of dozens of Ninth-Grade Supreme to find this coordinate.

These coordinates haven't been breached yet, so they can't be changed.

The Little Ox family also received the notification.

As residents of the outer city of the East District, they would also receive advance warnings.

Niu Er's expression changed, and he said anxiously, "Big brother, I'll go and get people to replant the Star Plant right away..."

The adults of the Nature Department are all in seclusion. Although Li Yang is exceptionally strong, she alone cannot stop such a large beast tide. Therefore, Niu Er wants to lead the Plow Ox Clan to plant more Star Plant to resist the beast tide.

Li Yang immediately said, "No need, you all continue planting the Sand Fruit seeds, leave the beast tide to me."

There is no realm suppression in the Huaxia Heavenly Palace, so Li Yang can directly use "Risking Life" to raise his realm to the Eighth Grade.

In any case, this "Risking Life" effort has already been exposed in the Star Nexus Pavilion.

It doesn't matter if I use it.

Li Yaowan was worried, as she was most afraid that Li Yang would use "Risking Life," fearing that she might lose control and burn out her lifespan.

Even with the longevity-enhancing effects of the "Sparse Words, Natural Heart Sutra," Li Yaowan still felt uneasy.

The news that the Eastern District was about to experience a beast tide quickly spread throughout the Huaxia Heavenly Palace.

Li Yaowan naturally found out as well, and she quickly sent a message to Li Yang: "I'll send people to resist the beast tide, you go to the Sand Fruit Realm Domain to negotiate the contract!"

Li Yang: "..."

She asked, "Isn't the Pill Division not good at warfare? This beast tide..."

"Don't listen to their nonsense. The Pill Division has a large number of mercenaries; sending just one squad will be enough!"

Li Yang knew Li Yaowan was worried about her, and her heart warmed. Her voice was sweet as she said, "Teacher Li, there's no need to go to so much trouble. I can manage on my own..."

"Don't use your 'Risking Life' on such a small matter!"

"It won't consume much of your lifespan..."

"No!"

"Okay..." Li Yang's voice was tinged with helplessness, but also mixed with joy.

A short while later, Li Yang's identity card started beeping frantically.
