Protagonist:

Xu Changqing

Thus, another chicken appeared beside Xu Changqing and the little yellow dog.

No, to be precise, it was a 【Pearl Mother Hen】.

Its entire body was gray.

Covered in regularly spaced round white dots.

It looked indeed similar to pearls.

It laid one chicken egg every three days.

Containing faint spiritual energy.

Nutrition was still fairly rich.

Because there was no rooster, this kind of egg could not hatch.

To put it bluntly, it could only be used for eating.

It could not achieve chicken lays egg, egg hatches chicken.

"Woof woof!" The little yellow dog was perhaps seeing this for the first time, appearing exceptionally excited.

It would fake-bite from time to time.

Scaring the pearl chicken into trembling all over.

Xu Changqing grabbed the drooling dog's mouth in one hand and warned: "Dare to bite and I'll beat you!"

……

Now the spirit rain had fallen.

Fertilizer had also been applied.

Although the wood spirit qi content was continuously rising.

But unfortunately, there was no 【Spiritual Qi Tide】 in summer.

He could only let the spirit plants grow on one side while gathering wood spirit qi on the other.

Doing so, the efficiency naturally became lower.

Xu Changqing knew anxiety was useless; the situation could not be changed.

Anyway, he was already at Qi Refining Late Stage; breaking through to Foundation Establishment Stage was only a matter of time.

Half a month later.

Xu Changqing, who was cultivating the 【Iron Wood Armor Technique】 Fragmented Edition, suddenly felt a stir in his heart.

He looked at the attribute panel.

【Iron Wood Armor Technique (Fragmented Edition)↑ (First Layer)↑】

(Effect 1: Consume spiritual power to cover the body with a layer of iron wood armor)

(Effect 2: +10% resistance to Fire Attribute, Metal Attribute)

"Wait?" Xu Changqing discovered in surprise.

There was an upward arrow next to this (Fragmented Edition).

Could it be, the Shen Nong System does not only raise spell levels?

【Whether to consume Heavenly Lifespan to repair the Iron Wood Armor Technique Fragmented Edition to completion?】

A prompt appeared.

"As expected." Xu Changqing's eyes brightened.

Didn't that mean.

Although he couldn't afford a complete spell himself.

But as long as it was a fragmented edition, or incomplete, he could get it at a low price.

Then, with the help of the 【Shen Nong System】 to repair it, he could obtain a complete spell.

【Whether to consume Heavenly Lifespan to repair the Iron Wood Armor Technique Fragmented Edition to completion?】

The prompt appeared again.

"Yes." This time, Xu Changqing agreed decisively.

Although 【Heaven】 equaled approximately 41 years.

But this bit of consumption was neither painful nor itchy to him.

In an instant, countless contents regarding 【Iron Wood Armor Technique】 emerged.

In a trance, Xu Changqing used his own limited knowledge, experience, and skill.

He spent a full 41 years before finally repairing the fragmented edition to completion.

Although in the outside world, it was merely an instant's affair.

But this state was incomparably real, with full immersion.

【Successfully consumed Heavenly Lifespan to repair the Iron Wood Armor Technique Fragmented Edition to completion!】

【Remaining Lifespan: Heaven】

【Iron Wood Armor Technique (First Layer)↑】

(Effect 1: Consume spiritual power to cover the body with a layer of iron wood armor)

(Effect 2: +15% resistance to Fire Attribute, Metal Attribute)

"Effect one hasn't changed, but effect two has been enhanced." Xu Zhangqing thought secretly.

Moreover, if he remembered correctly.

During the Fragmented Edition, the Iron Wood Armor Technique was actually not High Rank.

Only after the system repaired it completely were those two words added.

【Whether to consume 888 days of lifespan to upgrade Iron Wood Armor Technique First Layer to Second Layer?】

The prompt appeared for the third time.

"Yes." Xu Zhangqing responded.

This upgrade completed in an instant.

Because during the repair, he had already mastered the experience and techniques.

Equivalent to re-cultivating after dispersing one's cultivation, the efficiency was astonishingly fast.

【Successfully consumed 888 days of lifespan, upgraded Iron Wood Armor Technique First Layer to Second Layer】

【Remaining Lifespan: days】

【High Rank Iron Wood Armor Technique (Second Layer)↑】

(Effect one: consume Spiritual Power to cover the body with a layer of iron wood armor)

(Effect two: +20% resistance to Fire Attribute and Metal Attribute)

(Effect three: wood armor surface covered with a layer of sharp thorns)

"Upgraded to the highest grade in one go." Xu Zhangqing said seriously.

【Successfully consumed 1888 days of lifespan, upgraded Iron Wood Armor Technique Second Layer to Third Layer】

【Successfully consumed 2888 days of lifespan, upgraded Iron Wood Armor Technique Third Layer to Fourth Layer】

【Remaining Lifespan: days】

【High Rank Iron Wood Armor Technique (Fourth Layer)】

(Effect one: iron wood armor evolves into silver wood armor, additional +10% defense)

(Effect two: +25% resistance to Fire Attribute and Metal Attribute)

(Effect three: wood armor surface covered with a layer of sharp thorns)

(Effect four: sharp thorns +10% counter-damage)

(Effect five: automatically absorbs Wood Spirit Qi to repair damage after activation)

"Powerful." Xu Zhangqing's eyes brightened.

He immediately activated Iron Wood Armor Technique (Fourth Layer).

Instantly, a faint silver light covered his body.

If one looked closely, there were grain patterns like tree rings.

Moreover, on top grew sharp thorns like fine needles.

Because there was temporarily no opponent, he didn't know how the defense and resistance actually were.

Xu Zhangqing simply went to the Yang Shu he had been constantly "ravaging," but this time he didn't attack; instead, he stepped forward and embraced it like an old friend.

Sizzle!

Pfft!

Instantly, the sound of piercing resounded.

Hearing the noise, Xu Zhangqing let go and retreated a few steps.

He saw the Yang Shu he had embraced, its surface too horrible to look at.

Everywhere were dense needle holes.

Although the counter-damage effect wasn't tested.

But obviously, these sharp thorns' damage wasn't low either.

Thinking it over, Xu Zhangqing's gaze fell on the pearl chicken and little yellow dog.

The pearl chicken instantly curled into a ball, trembling again.

Seeing things weren't good, the little yellow dog immediately tucked its tail and ran off.

Soon it disappeared without a trace.

"I feed you, give you drink, yet at the critical moment neither of you is reliable." Xu Zhangqing rolled his eyes.

Several days later.

Rumble!

Thunder sounded.

Soon, a mass of dark clouds gathered in the sky.

Toward this, Xu Zhangqing wasn't surprised at all.

Although summer temperatures are high, and droughts easily occur.

But occasionally it also rains.

Just thunderstorm rain.

Comes fast, goes fast too.

For Lingti, this is heaven-sent sweet dew.

Only benefits, no drawbacks whatsoever.

However, Xu Zhangqing kept a watchful eye.

After all, when it rained in spring, many 【Rice Planthoppers】 crawled out of the water.

There should be insects in summer too, just don't know what variety.

Soon, crackling sounds rang out one after another.

Rain water fell.

Spirit rice, four-leaf clover, watermelon, Chinese cabbage all received moisture.

All became water-moist and smooth.

Xu Changqing stood under the eaves.

Little yellow dog crouched sitting on the left side.

Pearl chicken stood on the armrest of the chair on the right side.

Human, animal, nature, at this moment perfectly merged.

Not a trace of discordance.

A few minutes later rain passed sky cleared.

Temperature rose again.

Xu Changqing with hands behind back, slowly paced to the spirit field ridge.

Consumed spiritual power, soon the entire spirit field was perceived clearly.

He instantly let out a "Huh?" sound.

Next second took off shoes, barefoot entered spirit field.

Soon arrived before a spirit rice plant of extremely special appearance.

Its whole body golden glittering.

Wood spiritual energy extremely dense.

Especially the rice ears, others all three to five strands.

Yet this plant, surprisingly had as many as nine strands.

Xu Changqing seeing this hurriedly circulated Chang Qing Jue.

【Mutant Spirit Rice】

【Many Children Much Fortune】

Don't know if because of the rain just now.

Or some other reason caused it.

This spirit rice plant actually mutated.

Color deeper.

Rice ears more.

Even appeared an unbelievable entry!!!
