Protagonist:

Xu Changqing

In the early morning, a thin layer of mist lingered over the fields.

On the spirit plants, crystal-clear dewdrops hung one by one.

"Cluck cluck!"

The pearl chicken's jet-black eyeballs rolled around, searching for worms on the ground.

The yellow dog Wangwang lay at the gate, his two front paws crossed, his posture appearing extremely elegant.

With a "creak," the dressed Xu Changqing pulled open the door and stepped out, walking toward the Spirit Field with light steps while putting on his conical hat.

When he stood on the Spirit Field Ridge, he spread out his divine sense.

Instantly, information about the spirit rice, vegetables, four-leaf clover, and other spirit plants appeared one after another.

【Immature】

【Undamaged】

【Spirit Qi Sufficient】

All the spirit plants were the same as yesterday, without any difference.

Seeing this, the corner of Xu Changqing's mouth curled up, revealing a smile.

As a spirit farmer, the happiest thing is nothing more than everything being normal.

However, he did not turn and leave.

Instead, he took off his shoes and entered the Spirit Field barefoot.

On a spring morning, the temperature had not yet risen.

Therefore, the mud contained a faint coolness.

When disturbed by an "outsider," they all launched attacks.

However, Xu Changqing is not an Earth Spirit Root, so he is not afraid of the cold.

Soon, he arrived before a stalk of spirit rice.

Its height was about 1.2 meters.

Heavy rice ears hung on it.

Bearing grain after grain of green, unripe rice kernels.

At this moment, Xu Changqing raised his right hand, accompanied by the consumption of spiritual power within his body.

The next second, a layer of green light rippled on his right index finger.

Obviously, this is the low-rank spell 【Green Finger Point】.

Aiming at the spirit rice before him, he lightly "pointed" once.

In an instant, the green light found an outlet and surged over madly.

Immediately, the spirit rice's "delicate body" trembled.

Gradually, a faint green light also emerged on its body.

Visibly to the naked eye, it became more upright and sturdy.

Pity, besides that there were no more changes.

"Let me try them one by one." Xu Changqing, seeing this, was not disappointed.

Next, he cast Green Finger Point on them one stalk after another.

Only pity, a one-in-a-thousand probability is indeed a bit low.

In the end, without exception, none of them mutated.

However, Xu Changqing still did not give up.

Because there were still Chinese cabbage, chili peppers, and four-leaf clover that hadn't been tried.

So, next he patiently started on these vegetables again.

Pointing stalk by stalk.

Failure after failure.

Not long after, the chili peppers and four-leaf clover were all done.

Only a small amount of Chinese cabbage remained "waiting eagerly to be fed."

"Spiritual power is almost exhausted." Xu Changqing sensed his Qi Sea.

If it were the Qi Refining Stage, consuming this much he would have long since returned to his room to rest.

Now at the Foundation Establishment Stage, spiritual power supports him longer.

He thought it over and simply decided to finish pointing the remaining Chinese cabbage.

But as he was pointing, a sudden "ding" sound rang out.

Xu Changqing thought it was a sound from the system, so he looked at the Attribute Panel.

The result was that he discovered not a single change.

No, to be precise, there was.

It's just that the Remaining Lifespan had decreased by a few days, representing that he had aged a few more days.

Sighing that time once gone never returns, Xu Changqing searched for the sound's source again.

Finally, his gaze locked onto a Chinese cabbage.

Because he wanted to finish as quickly as possible, he had just tapped very fast, and simply hadn't noticed.

Only now did he discover that this Chinese cabbage was twice as large as the same kind beside it.

Beside it was one.

It looked as if it were a group.

"Could it be..." Xu Zhangqing's heart stirred, and he hurriedly enveloped it with his spiritual sense.

The next second, this Chinese cabbage's information appeared.

【Mature】

【Mutated Chinese Cabbage】

【Spirit Qi Content Multiplied】

【Insect Pest Resistance Multiplied】

"Just this?" Xu Zhangqing blinked his eyes.

This lucky Chinese cabbage obtained two effects.

One was maturing early.

One was mutation.

However, no matter how much it changed, it couldn't change one fact.

That is, it's a vegetable.

Besides being used to stir-fry Chinese cabbage or pickle Chinese cabbage, this thing has no other use.

Fortunately, at least it proved that the Green Finger is indeed useful.

Afterwards, Xu Zhangqing tapped through all the remaining Chinese cabbages.

After confirming only one had mutated, he immediately pulled it out of the ground with a "pop" sound.

【Harvested "Premium Large Cabbage" 1 plant, Lifespan +7 days】

Compared to normal Spirit Vegetables, it added +4 more days of lifespan.

"Wangwang, Pearl Chicken, today's breakfast is very rich." Xu Zhangqing held the mutated Chinese cabbage in his hands, waved it at the two little ones, then walked to the water channel side to start cleaning.

In a short while, it was washed clean.

Of course, he didn't forget the mud stuck to his feet either.

Afterwards he came to the kitchen, and began preparing today's breakfast.

"Thump thump thump" sounds rang out in succession.

The cutting board trembled along with it.

This Chinese cabbage's defense also increased after mutating.

Chopping down wasn't that easy, it was a bit strenuous.

Half an hour later, the fragrant breakfast was ready.

Two fried chicken eggs.

One plate of chili pepper stir-fried mutated Chinese cabbage.

One pot of mutated Chinese cabbage second-grade spirit rice porridge.

It looks not rich, but in reality it's much better than other spirit farmers.

Second-grade spirit rice, others have to eat sparingly.

Xu Zhangqing doesn't save at all, he eats it every meal.

Not to mention the mutated vegetables with even more spirit qi content.

"Cluck cluck!"

The Pearl Chicken jumped into the room, heading straight for the dining table.

When the distance was close, it leaped up.

Just at this time, the yellow dog Wangwang drooling rushed in.

Unknown if it didn't see, or did it on purpose, it directly elbowed the Pearl Chicken flying.

Afterwards it still turned a fawning smile toward Xu Zhangqing.

Its tail wagged non-stop, as if claiming merit.

"Cluck~ cluck~"

The Pearl Chicken's voice also weakened a lot.

It didn't dare continue approaching.

Shrinking in the corner, it looked on pitifully.

"You two!" Xu Zhangqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But he didn't play favorites.

Everyone gets a share, and the portions are large and filling.

When the first mouthful of chili pepper stir-fried mutated Chinese cabbage entered his mouth and he chewed.

Xu Zhangqing's eyes immediately brightened.

This mutated Chinese cabbage was crisp, tender, and refreshing.

One bite down and juice rolled in his mouth.

Next was the mutated cabbage second-grade spirit rice porridge.

The taste was even more soft and delicate.

The more he ate the more fragrant, the more he ate the more he wanted to eat.

One meal eaten, his belly was full and drum-round.

Containing a large amount of spiritual energy waiting to be refined.

Xu Zhangqing didn't wash the bowl either; he directly returned to the wooden bed and sat cross-legged.

Then he circulated Chang Qing Jue, beginning to refine this spiritual energy within his body.

Time flowed by second by second; after one incense stick, the refinement was complete.

The spiritual power within his body had recovered, even increasing slightly.

Xu Zhangqing clicked his tongue: "If I eat mutant vegetables and mutant spirit rice every day, I feel I could reach Foundation Establishment Perfection in less than ten years."

Pity that although Dian Qing Zhi is useful, its success rate is too low.

After washing the bowls and chopsticks, he quickly walked toward Stone Mountain.

After all, there were still many mutant spirit rices he had not tried.

Upon approaching, a faint fragrance permeated the air.

This was the unique taste of mutant spirit rice.

The more mature, the stronger the taste.

For now, Xu Zhangqing had no way to avoid it.

Fortunately, this place was very remote, with few people.

He skillfully drilled into the cave and saw these mutant spirit rices again.

The mutant mother rice in the center still shone with golden light, appearing quite plump.

【Mutant Mother Rice】

【Many Children Much Fortune】

【Spiritual Energy Cultivated】

【Domain One Zhang】

The entries had not changed much.

Xu Zhangqing felt he could maintain it for a very long time.

Soon, his gaze fell on the child rice beside him.

They were growing very robustly.

【Unripe】

【Mutant Child Rice】

【No Damage】

【Spirit Qi Sufficient】

There was no problem at all.

Xu Zhangqing decisively cast the low-rank spell 【Dian Qing Zhi】.

Rich green light gathered at his fingertips.

Starting with the mutant child rice, one stalk after another.

Unknown how long passed.

As he kept casting, suddenly a "ding" sound came.

If he heard correctly, it seemed one mutant child rice... had mutated!!!
