Lotus Seeds Ripen, the Season of Harvest! (Continued)
They calmly drew their bows or adjusted their cannonballs, waiting for the monsters to get close before delivering a fatal blow.
Shen Xing waited for a few minutes as usual.
After confirming that there were no special circumstances, Shen Xing continued to lead hundreds of powerful warriors and jumped onto the dragon's back.
Then, using a telescope, he located the Flying Brain within the blood mist and Execute them all.
Then go to Xia Wanyin's territory and pick her up along with the other two heroes.
Then he charged straight into the blood mist and began his crazy scoring spree.
One o'clock in the morning.
Shen Xing's cumulative points have exceeded 39 million.
The Sand Lord's points have just surpassed 34 million.
2 AM.
Shen Xing's cumulative points have exceeded 43 million.
The Sand Lord's points have reached 34.7 million.
3 a. m.
Shen Xing's cumulative points have exceeded 46 million.
The Sand Lord's points have just reached 35.5 million.
Then, at 6 a. m., the sixth night of the Blood Mist Frenzy officially ended.
On the leaderboard, Shen Xing's cumulative points have officially surpassed 58 million!
The Sand Lord's points have only just reached 38 million!
In just one night, the gap between Shen Xing and him widened again, reaching an astonishing 20 million points!
The implications of this are self-evident.
Even for those top 100 lords, they might not be able to obtain ten million points by the time the Blood Mist Frenzy ends.
Even at the rate of increase in Sand Lord, it would take two days.
With such a large gap, it seems that Shen Xing's first place is already secured.
But no one knows if the Sand Lord will suddenly unleash his power and catch up in one fell swoop.
Moreover, with the Blood Mist Frenzy nearing its end, everyone is putting in their best effort, preparing for a final sprint.
Even discussions about Sand Lord and Shen Xing have decreased.
The rankings are constantly changing, with new names appearing and established powerhouses being pushed off the list.
In this tense and exciting atmosphere, time quickly came to 11:55 PM.
Five minutes until the seventh night's Blood Mist Frenzy begins.
On the leaderboard, after a day of chasing, the Sand Lord's points surged from 38 million to 49 million, narrowing the gap with Shen Xing to nine million.
However, when the time reached 00:00, the Blood Mist Frenzy erupted.
Shen Xing exerted his strength again, rapidly widening the gap with an increase of three to four million points per hour.
After a continuous six-hour sprint, the seventh night of the Blood Mist Frenzy officially came to an end.
Shen Xing's points have reached 79 million!
The Sand Lord's points have increased to 53 million.
The gap has widened further, reaching 26 million points!
However, this powerhouse seemed completely unaffected, maintaining a growth rate of nearly 400,000 points per hour as he chased the rankings.
Shen Xing did not let his guard down and continued to follow his previous routine, grinding monsters frantically at night to acquire loot and points.
During the day, they digest souls, build up troops, and cultivate, constantly improving themselves.
It's worth mentioning that the [Life-Sacrifice Evolution] over the past two days was not wasted.
Currently, Leina and Fordring, the two mainstays, have been upgraded to Overlord Three-Star and Overlord Two-Star respectively.
The power of the domain has been further enhanced, so the speed of clearing monsters has also become much faster.
Night falls, at 7:00 PM.
Today is the eighth day since the Blood Mist Frenzy began, with only two days left until it ends.
At this moment, Shen Xing, who was sitting upright on the lotus platform, suddenly opened her eyes.
Because he suddenly smelled a strong, pleasant fragrance.
It's like being in a sea of flowers; even the air smells sweet.
When he looked up, he was immediately struck by a stunning sight.
At this moment, in the center of the Lotus Pond, layers of lotus leaves spread out like emerald green skirts, with lotus flowers and leaves arranged at varying heights, reflecting the entire lake surface as if it were a fairyland.
The pink and white lotus flowers had fully bloomed, swaying gently in the moonlight.
What surprised Shen Xing even more were the lotus pods that had already stood tall.
Each one is as big as an adult's head, covered with plump, white, jade-like lotus seeds.
That enticing fragrance comes from these lotus seeds.
Looking around, countless lotus pods spread out in concentric circles around the Rain God Platform, seemingly indicating an astonishing yield.
Finally, the first batch of lotus seeds has sprouted.
A smile of accomplishment appeared on Shen Xing's face, and a strong sense of satisfaction welled up in his heart.
The other generals also stared in disbelief at the scene, their eyes filled with shock.
"So beautiful..." Leina murmured, "Training in a place like this naturally lifts one's spirits."
"Yes," Luna nodded gently, "I've heard that some places where gods reside are like this."
The two heroines focused their gaze on the blooming lotus flowers, while the other soldiers stared at the lotus seeds on the lotus pods.
"Oh! Those fruits smell so good!" Da Hou couldn't help but swallow hard. "I really want to try a couple!"
"That's not called a fruit, that's called White Jade Lotus Seeds," Gorehowl corrected. "It's a very precious treasure. The one our boss gave us last time was this kind of lotus seed, only it was a bit older."
"I see, Gorehowl, you know so much." Da Hou nodded in understanding, then looked ahead again. "Doesn't this mean we'll have lots and lots of lotus seeds to eat from now on!?"
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this, and looking at the plump lotus pods, a look of longing appeared in their eyes.
Shen Xing was also very satisfied.
He planted a total of one thousand 'White Jade Lotus Seeds' at that time.
A quick scan revealed at least eight hundred lotus pods, each containing at least fifty or sixty lotus seeds.
In other words, this first batch of lotus seeds produced a total of forty to fifty thousand lotus seeds.
A return of forty or fifty times is truly astonishing.
With a surge of spiritual energy, a plump lotus seed shot out from the lotus pod, tracing an arc in the air before being caught steadily by Shen Xing.
He held the lotus seed, its surface covered by a green husk and its interior as hard as jade, in his hand and examined it for a while.
You can feel the special vitality it contains, as well as a strange and refreshing fragrance.
"Let me see the properties of this lotus seed."
His gaze sharpened slightly as an attribute description appeared before his eyes.
[White Jade Lotus Seeds]
[Quality: Gold]
[Number of growth rings: 1 ring (3 years)]
[Effect 1: This lotus seed contains pure life force. Consuming it can rapidly heal a large amount of injuries, restore youth to the body, and increase constitution by 10 points.]
(Note: With each cycle of growth, the vitality contained in this lotus seed will gradually increase, and its effects will also improve accordingly.)
[Effect 2: Can be cultivated into lotus seeds and planted in waters rich in life force for growth.]
"Indeed, even lotus seeds that have undergone one cycle of growth have the effect of healing injuries and permanently increasing physical constitution."
"This thing is like a recovery pill in a game."
"Keep some on hand. As long as you're not seriously injured, one pill will be enough to recover."
"Then you won't have to worry about getting injured."
Of course, besides these, it has an even more important ability—to restore youth to the body.
As mentioned before, aging is the most formidable enemy.
These lotus seeds, however, can rejuvenate your body.
Although it doesn't directly increase lifespan by 100 years like the Thousand-Year Lotus Seed, it's still enough to drive countless powerful individuals crazy, making them willing to pay a huge price to buy it.
For women in particular, these lotus seeds are considered a miraculous remedy.
"Moreover... the laurel blossoms growing on that 'Moon in the Sky' also have the effects of prolonging life and preserving youth and beauty."
According to Nimue, these two treasures can also be combined to make a type of food.
This made Shen Xing somewhat expectant; what kind of effect would the food made by combining these two elements have?
"In that case, of these 50,000 lotus seeds, 20,000 will be used to make food, and the remaining 30,000 will be replanted."
"If we maintain the 100x Time Acceleration, we can harvest a round in just ten days."
"If we do a few more rounds, each batch can yield at least several million lotus seeds."
"These alone will bring me a wealth of resources and profits."
Shen Xing thought expectantly, then took out the 'communication crystal' and called the clam girl over.
A figure appeared at the edge of the Lotus Pond shortly afterward, followed by a soft splash.
The clam girl swam nimbly in the water, revealing only her smooth upper body, leaving a long ripple on the surface.
Soon, she passed through clusters of flowers and lotus leaves and arrived at the center of the Lotus Pond.
"Human, these lotus seeds have all sprouted!" Nimue popped her head out of the water and said happily, "So many, so beautiful!"
"That's right, that's why I called you here," Shen Xing said with a smile. "The harvesting of these lotus seeds is now entrusted to you."
"Plant two-thirds of the harvest, and use the remaining one-third to make food."
"No problem!" Nimue nodded happily, then asked, "By the way, human, what about the lotus roots and lotus leaves in the water?"
Shen Xing was slightly taken aback, and also remembered this matter.
This kind of White Jade Lotus Seeds can produce more than just lotus seeds; the lotus root, lotus leaves, and other parts are also rare ingredients and materials.
Shen Xing pondered for a moment, then instructed, "Then let's harvest one-third of the lotus roots."
