Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

【Consume 2600 days of lifespan to upgrade Chang Qing Jue from Second Layer to Third Layer?】

"Yes." Xu Zhangqing had no hesitation.

Instantly, a large amount of experience and techniques regarding 【Chang Qing Jue】 emerged.

Not long after, the upgrade ended.

【Successfully consumed 2600 days of lifespan to upgrade Chang Qing Jue to Third Layer】

【Remaining Lifespan: 1814 days】

【Chang Qing Jue (Third Layer)】

(Effect One: Cultivation Speed +30%)

(Effect Two: Yield Enhancement +20%)

(Effect Three: Can predict and diagnose Lingti growth problems)

"Hiss." Xu Zhangqing sucked in a breath of cold air.

It had only been a few short days.

He had transformed from a piece of trash who failed consecutive assessments.

Whether Cultivation Realm or spell level, all were comparable to a Formal Disciple.

All this was like a dream, simply inconceivable.

"Strange, why did the Wood Spirit Qi decrease?"

"Wasn't there a lot just now?"

"If only there were a bit more Wood Spirit Qi, I could break through the realm ah ah ah!"

At this time, the surrounding people discussed animatedly.

Some of their complexions were very ugly.

Everyone wanted to use this seedling stage to enhance their strength, pity things went contrary to their wishes.

Only Xu Zhangqing alone obtained the biggest benefit.

Regarding this, he not only did not show off or boast.

On the contrary, he lowered his sense of existence as much as possible.

After all, although the 【Shen Nong System】 is heaven-defying, it is not invincible.

Therefore, before he has grown strong, keeping a low profile is absolutely correct.

……

……

In the following days, Xu Zhangqing was no different from the surrounding people.

Whatever should be done was done, not outstanding in the slightest.

Every day rising at sunrise and resting at sunset.

This day, after he finished eating breakfast, he once again came before the Spirit Field.

Gazing at the Lingti rice more robust than last quarter, he couldn't help but smile in relief.

The first two assessments.

The first time was because comprehension was too slow, therefore missing the assessment.

The second time was lack of experience, plus the Spirit Field had problems.

But the third time was completely different.

Han Su supplemented the Earth Qi, causing nutrition to recover.

Then relying on Qi Refining Middle Stage strength, perception enhanced.

Combined with the powerful effects of Third Layer 【Chang Qing Jue】.

As long as no accident occurs, yield will absolutely be one thousand jin.

Might even exceed it.

But Xu Zhangqing wanted to control it at a bit over one thousand jin.

As long as it meets the assessment conditions, becoming a Formal Disciple is enough.

No need to be too eye-catching, otherwise it would arouse others' suspicion.

Then, he sat cross-legged on the Spirit Field Ridge, beginning daily cultivation.

Circulating Third Layer 【Chang Qing Jue】.

The Wood Spirit Qi released by the Lingti rice ahead was immediately inhaled into the body.

Suddenly, the Spiritual Power inside the body changed from one strand to two strands.

Two strands of Spiritual Power roamed back and forth inside the body.

As time passed, a few impurities seeped out from the pores.

"Grew stronger again." Xu Zhangqing was pleasantly surprised in his heart.

"Why is Lin An bringing people over again?"

"This time it's not an Earth Spirit Root Disciple!"

"Look at the clothing, those are Water Spirit Root Disciples from the 【Water Pavilion】!"

At this moment, movement came from the surroundings.

Xu Changqing couldn't help but stop cultivating, his gaze looking toward the other side.

This fellow Lin An brought another unfamiliar face.

But this time it wasn't a man, but a woman.

Ordinary features.

Rather thin.

She scanned the surrounding people.

Seeing them all dirty, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes.

"Daoist Friend Zhao — please!" Lin An appeared very polite.

"Mm." Zhao Xin responded vaguely.

She waved her slender hand.

Instantly, the water spiritual energy in the surrounding air rapidly gathered.

Before long, a mass of thickening water mist floated above the rice fields.

Soon, pattering sounds rang out one after another.

Turned out it was raining.

This wasn't ordinary rainwater, but spirit rain containing water spiritual energy.

The spirit rice below became moist and lustrous after absorbing it.

Even the rice grains became more plump.

"Small Cloud Rain Technique?" Xu Changqing raised an eyebrow at the sight.

Compared to Earth Spirit Root disciples like Han Su who could only cooperate a few times per quarter.

This Water Spirit Root disciple is the important partner for long-term cooperation.

Because every so often, the spirit field needs irrigation once.

Ordinary spring water, stream water, flowing water, etc. only have basic effects.

But the spirit rain produced by the 【Small Cloud Rain Art】 is different.

Not only can it increase a portion of the yield.

Moreover it also repels pests, heals, and repairs damage.

Must say, to become a Formal Disciple, Lin An really went all out.

Also unknown how much harvest he'll lose this time?

One tenth?

Or even more?

After all, they wouldn't help for no reason!

Xu Changqing was somewhat tempted, but after thinking it over he still held back.

As long as nothing unexpected happens, he absolutely can pass the assessment.

No need to make an extra move for nothing.

Giving away a portion of the harvest for nothing, not to mention.

From this female disciple's strenuous expression one can tell.

She, probably hasn't mastered the 【Small Cloud Rain Technique】 deeply.

Even her internal spiritual power isn't much.

Belongs to just having entered the sect.

Precisely because of this, she could only find Outer Disciple spirit field holders to cooperate with.

If it were a Second Grade Spirit Field, it would instead be more trouble than it's worth.

Therefore, even if Xu Changqing wants to find one.

He still has to wait until after mastering the Second Grade Spirit Field.

To go find a Formal Disciple who has awakened a Water Spirit Root.

Why did Lin An look?

And so urgently?

Because this fellow only has one chance left.

What's more his cultivation is only Qi Refining Early Stage.

Chang Qing Jue still at (First Layer).

Control over the spirit field, unable to be as meticulous as Xu Changqing.

Therefore he tries every possible method to increase yield.

But also precisely because of this, he has to pay a price.

In the future, even if he becomes a Formal Disciple.

He'll still have part of his harvest taken by Han Su and this female disciple.

Can only say, this is the true portrayal of some Outer Disciples.

Unless talent is good, comprehension high, succeed in one go.

Otherwise can only keep compromising, retreating.

If there were no cheat, Xu Changqing's final outcome would be nothing more than three.

Either like Lin An constantly finding people to help, losing a portion of harvest.

Or become Formal Disciple Zhang Er's tenant farmer, losing almost all harvest.

Either completely detach from the Dongting Immortal Sect, thoroughly leaving no harvest at all.

"Xu Dao Friend, aren't you going to go ask?"

"You only have one chance left, you absolutely cannot fail again!"

"Right, right, you must seize this opportunity!"

The surrounding people were tempted, but still watched and waited.

Because they also saw that this female disciple with a Water Spirit Root lacked strength.

So they hoped Xu Changqing would go test the waters.

If the price wasn't high, naturally they could cooperate.

But if the price was too high, then forget it.

"Fine." Xu Changqing saw many people staring at him, and knew he could not refuse.

Although he did not need the other party's help.

But he had to go through the motions.

Only this way would it not arouse others' suspicion.

Coincidentally, Zhao Xin's Small Cloud Rain Art had just ended, and she was recovering spiritual power.

Lin An saw Xu Changqing come over, and a trace of resistance showed in his eyes.

Both sides only had one assessment chance left.

Therefore, in private, they were always compared by people.

Although there was no direct conflict, in their hearts they were more or less displeased.

Lin An raised an eyebrow and asked: "Does Xu Dao Friend have business?"

"I want to ask what price this Dao Friend charges for casting the Small Cloud Rain Art once." Xu Changqing shrugged.

Lin An looked hesitantly at the person at the side: "This?"

Zhao Xin glanced at Xu Changqing, then said: "Forty percent of the yield!"

These words spoken, Xu Changqing looked at Lin An in disbelief.

The surrounding people were even more dumbfounded, all backing out.

Earth Spirit Root Han Su only takes ten percent.

This Water Spirit Root female disciple actually takes forty percent.

Isn't that saying Lin An will give fifty percent of the future harvest to others.

How ruthless can one be!!!
