Chapter 1478: Yield of a Thousand Catties per Mu (Monthly Ticket Request at Month Start)

"Huu————"

"Xi————"

The surging power slowly receded, like muddy silt stirred up from the bottom of a pool finally settling back down, accumulating at the bottom to form a thick, dense layer.

Having finished sensing the Root Sea and the advancement of his divine ability, Zhang Longxiang opened his eyes; his bones shifted, he clenched his fist, and with every movement, ripples similar to Liang Qu's emerged.

"So that's how it is————"

After such a long time, Zhang Longxiang finally understood what Liang Qu's ripples truly were — proof that his growth had approached the world's limit! The current him likewise possessed a certain "universal resistance" against external methods!

It was just that the closer he drew to this stage, the more Zhang Longxiang found it inconceivable, hard to believe.

He had devoured an Immortal, a Furnace that in every aspect was a Furnace except for lacking the authority of a Grand Position Fruit — yet only thus did he reach this realm; why had Liang Qu been able to "easily" reach it over half a year ago?

At least in Zhang Longxiang's view, it was so.

Without any earth-shattering deeds, merely secluding himself to cultivate in the Imperial Capital, he then broke all common sense.

Subconsciously, he looked toward where Liang Qu's qi mechanism resided.

After leaving the Netherworld, everyone had gains, all were in closed-door cultivation; the stones in the river overlapped, indistinguishable who was who, only Liang Qu's bearing was simply different from ordinary people. Zhang Longxiang walked onto the deck.

Liang Qu was lying prone on the tabletop, surrounded by a crowd, burying his head as he "meticulously carved" a mass of mist.

Taotao walked over, raised a forefinger/toe, and shushed at Zhang Longxiang.

Zhang Longxiang nodded, did not continue approaching, waited in place for half a quarter-hour, and saw Liang Qu cry out loudly, his whole body leaning back against the chair back, extremely exhausted.

"Wow, Boss, you've worked hard————"

The Third Prince flew over, manifested a mist hand, massaged his shoulders and back, flattering and fawning.

Zhang Longxiang leaned closer to take a look.

On the tabletop there was a plate, and inside the plate was————

Rice?

"Huu, exhausted me." Liang Qu wiped his forehead, "Done!"

Zhang Longxiang, whenever he had a question, asked directly: "What is this?"

"Ha, King Longxiang has left seclusion? This is a treasure, ah." Liang Qu lifted that pile of rice, five fingers grasped it, letting them slide grain by grain from his palm, radiant with excitement; occasionally two grains bounced onto the ground, and inner attendants prostrated to pick them up.

"Treasure? Is it a treasure plant?"

Liang Qu shook his head: "I can't manufacture treasure plants; this is new rice seed!"

"What use?"

"Heiya, the effect is huge. You know my Position Fruit advanced, right?

Zhang Longxiang nodded.

Liang Qu continued: "I used my authority to perform what can be called a perfect transformation on these rice grains! Just this small plate — perfect, resistant to lodging, resistant to rice blast, bacterial leaf blight, sheath blight, rice kernel smut, resistant to brown planthopper, striped stem borer, cold-tolerant, heat-tolerant, can grow even in mildly saline-alkali soil, low chalkiness rate, uniform grains, low fertility consumption————"

A long string of it; Liang Qu looked at Zhang Longxiang, realized something: "You don't understand, do you?"

"Understand half — disease-resistant, pest-resistant, drought-resistant, cold-resistant, right?" Zhang Longxiang smiled.

"Pa!" Liang Qu snapped his fingers, smug, "Exactly. Most crucial of all — high yield!"

"How high?"

"Haven't planted it; estimate is around one thousand two hundred catties per mu.

"How much!?" Zhang Longxiang couldn't suppress his voice, almost half-shouting it out.

His family circumstances weren't too good; he wasn't someone who couldn't tell the five grains apart; in his youth he had even farmed; the current average yield per mu, even with good seed and good fertilizer, was only three hundred fifty catties!

"One thousand two hundred catties!" Liang Qu spoke with certainty, "If only targeting yield, ignoring everything else, two thousand catties is possible!

""

Zhang Longxiang's scalp went numb.

"Pity————" Liang Qu shook his head, "Manufacturing efficiency is a bit low; have to do it grain by grain. I used three days to produce just this small plate; whether the offspring can stably inherit is still not too certain."

Zhang Longxiang thoroughly understood the use of Liang Qu's authority.

A national heavy instrument, unparalleled!

In a certain sense, even more terrifying than the authority Liang Qu self-cultivated that could sublimate things.

He realized one thing.

The two entries into the Netherworld — not only did they solve the possibility of a fourth Furnace appearing, but being trapped for three months, all everyone's gains added together might not equal Liang Qu alone!

Liang Qu beckoned.

An inner attendant at the side bowed and stepped forward, carefully receiving and holding it; two inner attendants held their breath, cooperating with each other, simply lifting it like gold, treating it as a precious treasure as they placed it into a bag, put it into a treasure box; afterward dedicated personnel escorted it, straight into the Imperial Capital.

Rice grains were merely the first step of Liang Qu's seed transformation; rice, wheat, soybeans — the three-piece set — all had to be arranged, then cotton————

Once the foundation is firmly consolidated, then move upward————

Liang Qu couldn't help but feel excited.

Status rising higher and higher, strength growing stronger and stronger; right now, his transformation of the world is gradually expanding!

Really want to fast-forward a hundred years and see what the world will be like.

Cold wind biting, trees desolate.

The two leaned on the ship's railing, watching the shore scenery shift past.

Zhang Longxiang suppressed his surging emotions, noticed another matter: "You've been doing this for three days? How did you exit seclusion so fast?"

"Heh, my volume is larger than yours, so naturally I digest a bit faster."

Zhang Longxiang couldn't find words to refute; having often interacted with Liang Qu, he could already easily digest all kinds of news. He spoke seriously: "After finishing the Netherworld, what next?"

"Still one year; the East Sea Grand Hunt will convene, the Whale Emperor might come looking for me; besides that, cultivation."

"Cultivation, huh————"

Zhang Longxiang nodded lightly, blew in the wind for a while along with him, then turned and left.

As said, time flies like an arrow, and now is the time for cultivation.

On the deck, only Liang Qu remained; he drew a breath, the November chill air flooding his lungs, he clenched his fists, and turned his gaze inward.

The root sea surged with tides two thousand six hundred fifty-four times, shaking heaven and earth, swelling nearly two hundredfold.

The three authorities were as natural as limbs.

The three great arts of creation begot endless possibilities.

Chuan Guo contained a small world.

The Fourth Immortal returned to stillness.

War sustains war, harvests abound; in the journey to the netherworld, only one thing remains.

Within the spiritual link, the fat fish darted close, suddenly bursting from the waterway, lifting two masses of flesh, one Fu He straightened, leapt onto the deck.

The key material has arrived!

With a slap on the railing, he flipped over, Liang Qu leapt directly into the Yellow Shahe.

Communicate with the Ze Ding.

【Chuan Guo (false) expanded greatly, touched by yin and yang, reversible to Huangquan Guo (false), together raising the Yellow Shahe, the realm boundless.】

At this very moment, Chuan Guo has become Huangquan!

"Ah Fei!"

The gaping maw swallowed all.

Liang Qu landed anew, not floating, his feet on thick yellow earth.

The blood river flowed and wandered, the manjushrage swayed in the wind, Long Eying sat cross-legged cultivating; observing closely, yet one could see overlapping phantoms at the edge.

Flesh and spirit.

Long Eying was attempting cultivation, cultivation and Liang Qu initially grasping the gate to heaven and earth through corpse control!

After Liang Qu devoured that netherworld micro-realm, his Chuan Guo underwent transformation; many abilities still under exploration, yet some have been discerned.

Formerly, Chuan Guo was entirely a water world; the volume of water within determined its size; drain the water, and the aquatic beasts inside would be squeezed into a mass.

Besides this, everything must be brought by oneself, even the air; the "water surface" must be created, otherwise it is a solid water ball.

Now, it has become a true small world, with land and vegetation, though not large.

The Blood River Realm is a river, with banks; he inverted it, becoming a lake-heart island, two hundred li in diameter, not small; in his past life, half a small province.

After inversion into Huangquan Guo, the river would turn blood-red.

The color matters not; Liang Qu has always valued function.

Huangquan Guo possesses a most extraordinary function.

Though Liang Qu has never used it, he feels that now he needs no aid from resurrection rites, nor smuggling Chuan Guo, but can directly pass through the Yang realm—Huangquan Guo—Yin realm cycle, repeatedly.

Only requiring corresponding aquatic beasts in the Yin realm!

"Donor." Hui Zhen pressed her palms together.

"Huai Wang." Qi Ju Yan bowed respectfully.

Long Eying opened her eyes.

"Hui Zhen Master, Qi Elder, these two are flesh embryos, taking a small part of the Da Li Tai Zu Zun Zun embryo and cultivating it a second time, hence their quality is deficient, bearing a negative effect that drags down strength; thus you may confirm, upon rebirth, strength may greatly decline." Liang Qu held up the two flesh masses to remind.

"Thank you for your concern, donor."

Qi Ju Yan smiled: "Fully prepared."

"Good, Hui Zhen Master's I will take, Eying, you come help————"

Liang Qu's words paused, discovering a pair of gloomy eyes gazing upon him, instantly seizing his speech.

Long Eying's gaze swept over Qi Ju Yan once, then took the embryo.

"Thank you, Lady." Qi Ju Yan smiled.
