Protagonist:

Xu Changqing

After bidding farewell to Li Sancai.

Xu Changqing was still pondering the matter of mutated spirit plants.

If there were some method to induce spirit plant mutation.

Would that not equal an endless stream of yield and spirit stones?

He carefully recalled.

Before it rained, the spirit rice in the entire spirit field had no great difference.

The only difference was merely the number of rice ears.

Thunder sounded, after the thunderstorm passed.

Only then did this spirit plant produce its mutation.

"Could it be related to the thunder?" Xu Changqing speculated in his heart.

But why this stalk?

Why did the other spirit rice not mutate?

However, the more he thought, the more doubtful his heart became.

He simply could not figure out the critical point within.

……

Time arrived at Grain in Ear.

In the outside world, this heralds crops ripening and ready for harvest.

But in the Immortal Sect, or the entire cultivation world, it is instead just an ordinary day.

Even the most ordinary spirit rice matures in three months, one harvest per quarter.

After receiving Bai Ling'er's notification, Xu Changqing stood on the spirit field ridge waiting patiently.

But one must admit, summer is not too friendly to wood spirit roots.

Sunlight vicious, temperature extraordinarily high.

Shining on the body, in no time one's mouth is dry and tongue parched.

Fortunately, Bai Ling'er did not make him wait too long.

Not long after, a flying paper crane slowly approaching appeared in the distance.

Just this kind of remote place.

Besides Bai Ling'er.

Only Hu Bugui is willing to come.

Of course, before there was also Lin An, now this guy's whereabouts are unknown.

Xu Changqing waited for the other party to jump down, immediately stepped forward to greet: "Welcome, Dao Friend Bai!"

Bai Ling'er saw a pearl chicken wandering about, quite surprised: "You even raise chickens now?"

Xu Changqing smiled slightly: "A friend sent it."

Bai Ling'er suddenly understood, then blinked: "Do you raise fish?"

"Fish?" Xu Changqing was startled.

Bai Ling'er explained: "That kind, chubby and plump, carp."

Xu Changqing waved his hand: "Although I have water channels here, they are too shallow."

If it were burrowing loaches, eels, frogs, crayfish, and the like.

Those could be tried.

As for fish, for now let's forget it.

Bai Ling'er nodded to show understanding, then said: "Then I'll begin."

Only to see her wave her small hand, spiritual power beginning to be consumed.

Instantly, above the spirit field a large amount of water spiritual energy began to gather.

In a short while, it gradually formed a cluster of faintly black mist.

At the same time, a cool breath spread out along with it.

Xu Changqing had originally been a bit irritably hot, instantly from head to toe incomparably cool and comfortable.

Soon, "pitter-patter" rain sounds rang out.

The spirit plants below, nourished by the spirit rain, immediately became plump.

Xu Changqing saw this and his heart stirred, he asked: "Dao Friend Bai, will this Small Cloud Rain Technique turn into a thunderstorm at the end?"

Bai Ling'er shook her head: "Small Cloud Rain Technique cannot, but Great Cloud Rain Technique can."

"What difference?" Xu Changqing continued to inquire.

Bai Ling'er answered: "Small Cloud Rain Technique is a low-rank spell, Great Cloud Rain Technique is high-rank.

Casting Great Cloud Rain Technique requires vast spiritual power to maintain, therefore only Foundation Establishment stage and above can learn it."

Xu Changqing half-understanding pursued: "Can it simulate thunder sounds?"

"Of course." Bai Ling'er gave affirmation.

Xu Changqing slightly narrowed his eyes, pondering.

Perhaps he should find a Foundation Establishment Stage Water Spirit Root Disciple who has learned the Great Cloud Rain Technique to come try.

If it can truly stimulate his spirit plants to produce mutations, that would prove this method is correct.

The only problem is, inviting a Foundation Establishment Stage Disciple to act.

The Middle-grade Spirit Stones in his hand might not be enough.

Instantly, his gaze fell on Bai Ling'er once again.

"Why are you looking at me?" Bai Ling'er was quite puzzled.

"I'll ask presumptuously."

Xu Zhangqing continued: "What realm is Dao Friend Bai at now? How many layers has your Small Cloud Rain Technique reached?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ling'er said somewhat embarrassedly: "This... although my Small Cloud Rain Technique is already at two layers, my cultivation realm is only Qi Refining Middle Stage."

"Only Qi Refining Middle Stage?" Xu Zhangqing was directly dumbfounded.

He originally thought that even if the other party wasn't Foundation Establishment Stage, they would be at Qi Refining Late Stage.

After all, this Small Cloud Rain Technique of hers is indeed very powerful.

Never expected, he had actually overestimated instead.

Bai Ling'er shrugged: "The advantage of us Water Spirit Roots is that spiritual power is more enduring; this is also one of the main reasons why we take the Talisman Dao path."

Facing this explanation, Xu Zhangqing was left speechless.

Waiting for Bai Ling'er to reach Foundation Establishment Stage and learn the Great Cloud Rain Technique.

At least ten to twenty years later, a bit too long.

It seems the most direct and effective method is still to find a Foundation Establishment Stage Water Spirit Root Disciple.

Next, the two chatted on and off.

Time passed quickly.

Because the deposit had already been paid before.

So this time Bai Ling'er casting the Small Cloud Rain Technique did not need to pay money again.

After the other party stepped on the Flying Paper Crane and left, Xu Zhangqing immediately jumped into the Spirit Field.

On one hand circulating the Chang Qing Jue to sense all the spirit rice.

On the other hand carefully observing all the spirit plants.

Pity, not a single mutated one.

Whether spirit rice, four-leaf clover, watermelon, or Chinese cabbage.

Even after experiencing one Small Cloud Rain Technique's nourishment, they only became more watery and full.

And did not appear the exactly same situation as the Mutant Spirit Rice.

"Whether Small Cloud Rain Technique or Great Cloud Rain Technique, they are actually both simulating natural rainfall; in the end, they still lack a bit of meaning." Xu Zhangqing appeared slightly regretful.

Then, he rushed non-stop toward Stone Mountain.

Familiarly drilling into the internal space.

Under his meticulous cultivation, the Mutant Spirit Rice was very robust.

After all, the nutrients of this patch of Black Soil were all absorbed by this single plant.

【Immature】

【Spirit Qi Sufficient】

【Many Children Much Fortune】

After careful observation, Xu Zhangqing pondered: "When it matures, I will keep all the rice grains and cultivate them separately, to see what difference there is compared to normal spirit rice."

Seeing no problem, he turned and left.

When he arrived outside, the Pearl Chicken made "cluck cluck" sounds.

One listen and you know it laid an egg again.

Once every three days, every time at this time point, extremely punctual.

However Xu Zhangqing himself didn't eat much, all fed to the Little Yellow Dog.

In this half year, its size grew rapidly.

But because it reached an awkward phase.

So its appearance is a bit messy.

Especially its fur became extremely messy.

Every time seeing the Little Yellow Dog's monkey-like face, Xu Zhangqing wanted to laugh.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the Pearl Chicken's egg-laying spot.

The little fellow was already waiting there for a long time.

Although greedy, drooling continuously.

But because Xu Zhangqing had privately educated (beaten) it before, it didn't dare act recklessly.

"Woof woof!" It barked a few times urgingly.

"What's the rush, it's all yours anyway." Xu Zhangqing shrugged.

He took out a handful of Second-grade Spirit Rice from the Small Storage Bag.

Roughly a hundred grains or so.

Then placed them in front of the Pearl Chicken.

After it pecked them up grain by grain, only then did he pick up the chicken egg on the ground and walk toward the Kitchen.

Before long, the house was filled with the aroma of food.

And such days, one person one dog one chicken repeated almost every day!
