Chapter 418: with translation of chapter title
Ye Heng took out a small bag of seeds and said:
Ye Heng is a character, already in the glossary.
"I think the seeds from the Special Zone are no good, so I didn't buy many, just these for trial planting."
Special Zone might be a place name; it's not in the glossary, so we should translate it as 'Special Zone'.
The bag tore open, and the seeds spilled out, most shriveled or even moldy; even a layperson could tell these seeds were no good.
- No named entities.
Several elders stepped forward, pinching the seeds between their fingers to examine them, then brought them close to their noses to sniff, each furrowing their brows.
- No.
"These seeds are probably too old and have gotten damp and moldy; they're indeed no good. No wonder even the Special Zone can't grow decent vegetables—it seems our hope of self-sufficiency is unrealistic."
Special Zone again.
That one sentence plunged everyone into confusion and anguish.
- No.
After great effort we obtained the wasteland world's most precious purified soil, yet we don't know what price Team Captain Ye Heng paid to acquire it—are we really going to let it go to waste like this?
Fe Fe Tu Shi Jie Jie is in the glossary. Ye Heng Team Captain is already covered by the glossary entries for Ye Heng and Team Captain. Purified soil is not a named entity, so it's not needed.
Everyone felt unwilling, yet deeply helpless.
- No.
There's nothing we can do; this world has long lost hope, and that once vibrant world can never return.
- No.
Now this wasteland world lies barren everywhere, with no greenery left, let alone those bright flowers.
Fe Fe Tu Shi Jie Jie again.
Without seeds, all vegetation is contaminated; any new growth that sprouts is dark and poisonous, devoid of any beauty.
- No.
Even a single bite of fresh vegetable has become a luxury; the beauty that once dotted every corner of the planet may never be seen again.
- No.
The seed gap has vanished, dooming future humanity to possibly rely forever on nutrient solutions for survival.
- No.
Yet their sanctuary still enjoys the goddess's protection, so they can still make do.
Shelter is in the glossary. Goddess is a generic term, not a specific name, so it's not needed as a named entity.
But what if, over time, the goddess stops protecting them, or deems them beyond help, forcing them to rely on others' aid and thus withdraw her protection?
Goddess again.
From now on, no one can say for sure.
- No.
A oppressive atmosphere spread through the planting area, every face showing deep despair.
Planting area is generic.
But just then, Ye Heng gave a light cough, and everyone fell silent, turning their gaze to him.
- Ye Heng.
"Everyone, don't rush; I haven't finished speaking."
- No.
He pointed to the seeds lying ignored on the ground and said:
- No.
"Even the seeds brought back from the Special Zone should be planted to see how they do—just for practice."
Special Zone.
"As for the rest, don't despair—haven't you forgotten? We still have the goddess."
Goddess.
"The goddess has promised me a batch of high-quality seeds; she never deceives us, so what we must do now is seize the time to test a batch, striving to hone our planting skills before her seeds arrive."
Goddess.
After Ye Heng finished speaking, everyone remained dazed.
- Ye Heng.
Until someone suddenly pinched themselves hard—it really hurt!
- No.
"It's real! What Team Captain Ye Heng said is definitely true!"
Ye Heng as team captain; Ye Heng and Team Captain.
"Exactly, exactly! We have the goddess—what were we despairing about just now? The goddess's powers are vast; haven't we already received enough surprises from her? It's just seeds—she surely has them!"
Goddess.
Even rare varieties like pumpkins, long thought extinct, the goddess has shipped many over; she surely can change this wasteland world!
Pumpkin is generic. Goddess. Fe Fe Tu Shi Jie Jie.
Suddenly, someone thought of something, their expression becoming extremely excited.
- No.
"Team Captain, maybe we don't need the goddess's help after all—we already have high-quality seeds ourselves!"
Team Captain. Goddess.
"Haven't you forgotten? The goddess said pumpkin seeds are both a snack and a seed; in the past few days, members on routine supply runs brought back several highly valuable research books containing basic planting methods for various crops—we need to find a few experts to study them right away."
Goddess.
Upon hearing this, Ye Heng immediately took it seriously.
- Ye Heng.
The next day, they excitedly discovered that not only could pumpkin seeds be planted in the sanctuary, but the sweet potatoes and potatoes Lin Meng gave could also be sown in chunks.
Shelter. Lin Meng. Sweet potato is generic. Potato is generic.
Ye Heng immediately assigned personnel to develop planting of pumpkins, sweet potatoes, and potatoes in the planting area.
Ye Heng. Planting area is generic. Pumpkin, sweet potato, potato are generic.
He temporarily kept this good news from Lin Meng, thinking to wait until the trial succeeded before telling her, so as not to raise false hopes.
He (Ye Heng). Lin Meng.
Whether the purified soil can actually grow these things well is still uncertain; if we tell Lin Meng now and it fails, wouldn't we just make her sad for nothing?
Lin Meng.
Lin Meng has now formally entered the cultivation final stage; as long as Ye Heng and Ye Fan don't actively seek her out, she won't initiate contact either.
Lin Meng, Ye Heng, and Ye Fan (a character not in the glossary but appearing here) should be included as a named entity. Cultivation and final stage are generic.
After the recent intensive cultivation training, Lin Meng found that although she was in a poorer environment and could only rely on pills and spirit stones to obtain spiritual energy, her cultivation speed seemed truly fast, reaching the late Foundation Establishment stage in a short time.
Lin Meng. Pill, spirit stone, and spiritual energy are generic. Foundation Establishment late stage—Foundation Establishment is already in the glossary, and 'late stage' is generic. We should include Foundation Establishment as a term.
The further she cultivates, the more spiritual energy she needs, and the slower her progress becomes—this is only natural.
- No.
But perhaps because her environment naturally has thin spiritual energy, her body is in a state of extreme sensitivity to it; whenever spiritual energy enters her body, each meridian frantically absorbs and refines it, actually achieving twice the result with half the effort.
- No.
After another five-day seclusion, Lin Meng consumed all her Yellow Dragon Pills, her spirit stones nearly depleted, and finally she broke through to perfected Foundation Establishment.
Lin Meng. Yellow Dragon Pill is a named pill and should be included as a named entity. Spirit stone is generic. Foundation Establishment perfected—Foundation Establishment is needed as a term.
Just one step away, she could achieve Golden Core.
Golden Core is a cultivation realm and should be included as a named entity; it's not in the glossary, so we need to add it.
With the Ascending Spirit Fruit as a guarantee, Lin Meng doesn't worry about failing to pass this hurdle.
Ascending Spirit Fruit is a named item/treasure and should be included; Lin Meng.
For now, she only needs to consolidate her cultivation, ask Ye Fan for more pills and spirit stones, make full preparations, and then she can attempt a breakthrough to Golden Core.
Now and cultivation level are generic. Ye Fan. Pill and spirit stone are generic. Golden Core is a cultivation realm.
A Golden Core cultivator can live five to six hundred years; human swords and weapons are useless against them, making them virtually invincible on Earth.
Golden Core cultivator includes Golden Core, which is already accounted for.
Moreover, once entering the Golden Core stage, one can fly freely through the sky, staying aloft for long periods without needing to rely on magical artifacts or techniques.
Golden Core stage. Sky Flight is in the glossary, so include it.
Once Lin Meng enters the Golden Core stage, she will become a true god-like being in this world.
Lin Meng. Golden Core stage.
Just thinking about it is exciting!
- No.
Of course, after entering the Golden Core stage, Lin Meng will have even more confidence to establish an Immortal Cultivation University.
Golden Core stage. Lin Meng. Immortal Cultivation University is a named institution and should be included as a named entity; it's not in the glossary.
As the future Earth's sole Immortal Cultivation University, she does not want herself, its honorary president and founder, to have merely a minor Foundation Establishment cultivation.
Immortal Cultivation University again. Honorary president is a generic title, not a named entity. Founder is generic. Cultivation is generic. Small Foundation Establishment—Foundation Establishment is generic.
Reaching the Golden Core stage also counts as having a bit of prestige.
Golden Core stage.
Lin Meng took a deep breath and withdrew from cultivation; her vision and senses seemed to have grown stronger.
Lin Meng. Cultivation is generic.
She contacted Qin Feng, confirmed the school's site selection, and agreed to meet next week to discuss in detail.
She (Lin Meng). Qin Feng is in the glossary. School and site selection are generic.
On Ye Heng's side, after several days of test‑planting research, today is the moment to verify the results.
Ye Heng. Test planting is generic.
At this moment, crowds had gathered outside the planting area, including Luo Song's family.
Planting area is generic. Luo Song is a character name not in the glossary and should be included. Family is generic.
After Luo Song was taken into the sanctuary, Ye Heng gave him a Return Spring Pill that very night, instantly healing his injuries.
Luo Song. Shelter. Ye Heng. Return Spring Pill is in the glossary.
Even now, Luo Song feels that all of this is unreal.
Luo Song.
His legs were clearly ruined; even with proper care, he would remain a cripple for life, never to recover.
- No.
But Ye Heng gave him a small pill, and miraculously it cured him.
Ye Heng. Pill is generic.
I have to say, this Bi Hu Suo is full of miracles everywhere, and it makes Luo Song increasingly curious—just who is that mysterious goddess behind the scenes, since every single item of supplies she provides overturns people's cognition.
