Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
In the days that followed, everything became cyclical and repetitive.
Cooking, cultivating, walking the dog, tending the spirit fields.
Day after day, every day the same.
If it were someone else, they might not be able to endure the loneliness.
But every time Xu Zhangqing saw the rice seedlings in the spirit fields growing more and more robust,
his mood would be incomparably refreshed.
And as he continued to cultivate, the spiritual power within him grew to four strands.
At this moment, he stood on the spirit field ridge.
Beside his feet was a slightly grown yellow puppy.
Looking at the four-leaf clover growing silently in the corner, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Zhang Su clearly said it was 【Four-leaf Clover】.
But now, most of them had only one leaf.
This situation was obviously not right.
After all, fertilizer had already been applied where it should be.
Rain had already fallen where it should be.
When planting at first, he had even deliberately wrapped them with spiritual power.
Logically speaking, they should have grown normally.
But the current situation instead seemed uneven in quality.
Most were a single green leaf.
A minority were two leaves.
But not to mention four leaves, there weren't even three leaves.
Was it that the growth cycle was long?
Or was something overlooked somewhere?
Xu Zhangqing said firmly: "There is absolutely no problem with nutrition."
Woof woof!
At this time, the yellow puppy at his feet barked toward the left side.
Hearing the noise, Xu Zhangqing couldn't help but glance sideways.
A person was walking over from Yuan Chu.
But the person coming was not Hu Bugui.
Nor was it Lin An, Zhao Ziyao.
Absolutely unexpected.
It was actually Li Sancai.
That Senior Brother Li who had helped him multiple times at the Ling Tian Periphery.
"Senior Brother, why have you come?" Xu Zhangqing hurried forward to welcome him.
Li Sancai said with a smile while sizing him up: "My task of guarding the outer perimeter has been completed, so I have returned to the Core Area."
Xu Zhangqing's eyes brightened: "That's great, Senior Brother, give me a location, next time I'll visit your door."
Li Sancai took out a Communication Talisman and handed it over, then explained: "Last time at Hongfeng Valley Market, it wasn't that I deliberately slighted you, but my cousin had urgent business, so I couldn't delay."
"Cousin?" Xu Zhangqing took the Communication Talisman and said in sudden realization: "Ling Bi is actually Senior Brother's cousin!"
Li Sancai nodded slightly: "You also know that these past two years, the prices of all kinds of resources have been soaring, whether Lingti or Spirit Tools, even task remuneration is much higher than before."
Xu Zhangqing deeply agreed: "Indeed, I just spent twenty low-grade Spirit Stones to hire someone to make it rain."
The two walked along the Spirit Field Ridge, Li Sancai continued: "Precisely because my cousin is a Core Disciple, his demand for all kinds of resources is increasing more and more."
Hearing this, Xu Zhangqing pondered: "Could it be that Senior Brother's return this time also has this factor inside?"
Li Sancai showed an appreciative look: "I specially came to find you this time, one is to confirm the location, the other is to chat about cooperation matters."
"Cooperation?" Xu Zhangqing was very surprised, but at the same time incomparably delighted.
"Four-leaf clover?" Li Sancai looked at the robust spirit rice, couldn't help but his eyes brighten, but after seeing the Lingti in the corner on the other side, he was stunned for a moment.
Xu Zhangqing grinned: "Yes, Four-leaf Clover."
Li Sancai suddenly showed a playful expression: "You can plant Four-leaf Clover, this point makes Senior Brother very surprised, but the person who sold you the seeds, didn't they say how to plant them?"
Xu Zhangqing saw the other's expression, his heart thumped, and hurriedly shook his head: "No, I thought the planting method was the same as spirit rice."
Li Sancai couldn't help but mock: "This Four-leaf Clover has a great demand for water, so even if planting, one must find a place with more water, otherwise it will compete with your spirit rice for moisture."
Xu Zhangqing shook his head: "But the spirit rice I planted has no problems at all."
He senses it once every day.
And when 【Changqing Jue】 reaches the Fifth Layer,
he can sense all conditions of the Lingti in advance.
Li Sancai looked as if everything was under control: "One, because your spirit rice is many.
Two, the Four-leaf Clover seeds have problems."
"Three, I imagine your 【Changqing Jue】 has improved, right?"
"Is that so." Xu Zhangqing neither admitted nor denied it.
Seeing this, Li Sancai did not press further, but pointed to the spot where the four-leaf clovers were planted and said: "Next time, dig a water channel beside it, and that will do."
Xu Zhangqing sighed: "Unexpectedly helped by Senior Brother again, this kindness is endless."
Li Sancai said with a laugh and tears: "It's nothing; many things are mutual."
Although the other party had not admitted whether 【Changqing Jue】 had improved.
But that was not the point.
After all, more than half a year had passed since then.
Even if one's aptitude was poor, there would still be some progress.
What's more, judging by the current growth of the spirit rice, the yield would absolutely not be low.
"By the way, what does Senior Brother want to cooperate with me on?" Xu Zhangqing was very curious about this.
Li Sancai's smile faded, and he said with a serious expression: "My cousin Li Lingbi plans to break through to an Earth-grade Golden Core within ten years, so he needs a large amount of resources."
Xu Zhangqing couldn't help but change the subject: "What is an Earth-grade Golden Core?"
Li Sancai replied: "Golden Cores have three grades: Human, Earth, and Heaven."
A Human-grade Golden Core belongs to the worst kind of Golden Core.
Whether it is the strength of magic power or the power after casting spells, it is the weakest.
But the vast majority of cultivators are almost all Human-grade Golden Cores.
This involves many reasons.
One is aptitude.
The other is resources.
An Earth-grade Golden Core can crush a Human-grade Golden Core.
But to reach Earth-grade requires a large amount of resources.
Moreover, one must also go out to hunt thousand-year demons and obtain their core parts.
By absorbing the power of the core parts, to strengthen the spiritual roots.
As for Heaven-grade Golden Cores, even more things are involved.
Throughout the 【Tianyuan Realm】, perhaps only one appears in a thousand years.
Therefore, for many geniuses, the Earth-grade Golden Core is the limit and pursuit.
Xu Zhangqing immediately asked: "Is a Heaven-grade Golden Core very difficult to reach?"
Li Sancai said with a serious expression: "This is not a question of whether it can be reached, but rather requires a certain opportunity; without great air luck, it is almost impossible."
Xu Zhangqing thought to himself: "Others cannot, does not mean I cannot."
Even if it is Li Lingbi, a genius with three spiritual roots mutual generation.
One must seek breakthroughs within a limited lifespan.
But I am different, possessing an almost infinite lifespan, so I can accumulate bit by bit.
Seeing the other party silent, Li Sancai thought he had been struck and comforted him: "These are too far away for you; let's talk about it after Foundation Establishment."
Xu Zhangqing nodded: "Senior Brother is right."
Li Sancai returned to the subject: "Junior Brother, as long as you join our team, although you will be very busy within ten years and even face higher demands, but regardless of whether my cousin ultimately succeeds or fails, you will be given the greatest benefit."
"Benefit?" Xu Zhangqing looked thoughtful.
Li Sancai said meaningfully: "Even if my cousin fails to break through to an Earth-grade Golden Core, he is still a genius with three spiritual roots mutual generation, not something some people can compare to."
Xu Zhangqing knew who the other party was referring to, but did not directly agree, instead hesitating: "Since it is Senior Brother's invitation, I certainly cannot refuse, I'm just afraid I can't help."
Li Sancai laughed in disbelief: "Before coming, I actually had this concern too."
"Seeing you take care of the spirit rice so well, and even starting to plant 【Four-leaf Clover】, this concern was dispelled!"
