Chapter 112

The big words [In urgent need of nutrient supplementation] began to disappear quickly.

Xu Zi'an also felt relieved.

Immediately, he entered the seeding command for the Steel-Bone Grass into the main control panel of the ultra-small plant cultivation room.

He chose a quantity of 12.

Immediately, the drones in the other boxes were dispatched, and the ultra-mini mechanical arms scanned them.

They immediately locked onto the flower bud at the top of the Steel-Bone Grass and carefully peeled off the seeds inside.

Then, one by one, they were neatly planted in the twelve boxes.

[Plant Name]: Steel-Bone Grass

[Plant Grade]: No Grade

[Plant Function]: Widely used for tempering and strengthening human bones

[Plant Status]: Weak vitality

[Plant Age]: Zero years (seeding period)

Xu Zi'an took a look.

Each Steel-Bone Grass seed also needs 10 wealth points.

He didn't talk nonsense either.

He applied wealth points to all of them one by one.

Consumed again!

And these twelve Steel-Bone Grass seeds.

Were also growing rapidly.

Even...

Breaking through the soil and sprouting, it was visibly fast.

If there are no accidents.

Today.

It will be able to reach one year of age!

And then...

He can use it directly!

Xu Zi'an was full of anticipation.

Heavenly treasures cultivated by his own hands...

He didn't know what the specific effect would be.

However, he believed it would definitely not be bad!

Xu Zi'an was full of anticipation.

A communication came through on his communicator from Sister Haitang.

Sister Haitang.

After graduating from Shenzhou Academy, she had stayed on as a lecturer.

However, as a lecturer, she was somewhat unconventional.

If she was in a good mood, she would go and give a lecture.

If she wasn't, she wouldn't.

Shenzhou Academy also placed very few restrictions on its teachers.

If you are willing to teach, no problem, you get a certain number of credits per class.

If you aren't, that’s also fine; you are free to do as you please.

Since enrolling.

Xu Zi'an hadn't gone to see Sister Haitang yet.

He had originally planned to pay her a visit after some time—

The main purpose, of course, was to wait until his bio-energy was full and then ask Sister Haitang to act as his guardian.

To go hunt space pirates!

Sister Haitang was, after all, one of the ten top geniuses of the Earth Federation.

Her strength was naturally beyond doubt.

Among the cruiser captains at Shenzhou Academy.

Her strength was definitely among the very best.

The communication connected.

Sister Haitang’s signature cold yet magnetic voice came from his optical brain watch.

"Xu Zi'an, do you have any time recently?"

Sister Haitang asked.

Xu Zi'an didn't know what she wanted, so he replied: "It's alright, not very busy, but not very free either."

"Why, is there something you need?"

Sister Haitang gave an 'mm' on the other end and said slowly: "I have a student."

"Her starship is currently a Tier 5 scout ship, and she wants to upgrade it to Tier 6."

"She wants to find a capable evolutionist to help her evolve the starship."

"The goal is an overall blue rare quality."

"If she goes to the Evolutionist Association, their asking price is too high; she doesn't have that much money."

"The teachers in our school's evolutionist department could do it, but if she hires them, the credit cost is also too high."

"So I thought of you."

"How about it, are you interested?"

Xu Zi'an laughed.

Sister Haitang...

She was specifically referring business to him!

How could he refuse? He said immediately: "Overall blue rare quality, no problem at all."

"How about the day after tomorrow? I have things to do tomorrow, how is the day after?"

Sister Haitang had no objections and said: "The day after tomorrow is fine."

"Then it's settled."

"Mm, okay, thank you!"

He hung up the communication.

Xu Zi'an couldn't help but look toward the evolution factory.

He sighed inwardly.

How long had it been.

Finally...

He was going to open for business.

Regardless of the number of credits.

This time, Xu Zi'an intended to do a good job with the evolution for that person.

Moreover, since the other party was Sister Haitang’s student, Xu Zi'an would certainly evolve it well for her.

Additionally, Xu Zi'an also wanted to use this to make a name for himself.

In this way, he believed that many students would come to him to evolve their starships.

Of course, he could completely go to the Evolutionist Association to take evolution orders.

There were even plenty of orders; he could get them easily.

But firstly, he didn't have that much time.

Secondly, with the time spent on evolution, Xu Zi'an would rather take the school's orders!

Because school orders, while not giving cash.

The credits were undoubtedly more valuable and precious!

Especially after he expanded his planting scale later, the demand for credits would be even greater.

The next day, it was still before dawn.

Xu Zi'an didn't even wash up before rushing excitedly into the cultivation room.

As soon as he entered, Xu Zi'an’s eyes lit up.

Stalks of Steel-Bone Grass, already twenty centimeters tall, filled his field of vision.

Each one was glowing green, a delight to behold.

He checked the status—

【Plant Name】: Steel-Bone Grass

【Plant Grade】: First Grade

【Plant Function】: Widely used for tempering and strengthening human bones

【Plant Status】: Vigorous vitality

【Plant Age】: One year (growing rapidly)

As expected!

It had increased by one year in one day.

And the one-year-old Steel-Bone Grass had just reached the standard for consumption!

Unable to restrain himself any longer, Xu Zi'an immediately ordered one of the drones to dig up one of the stalks entirely.

For a natural treasure like Steel-Bone Grass.

It could only grow once.

Other than that, one could only sow seeds.

It wouldn't be like many plants that could grow again after being cut.

The drone sent the dug-up Steel-Bone Grass into the storage room of the ultra-small plant cultivation chamber.

Xu Zi'an went over, took it out, and brought it home.

Such natural treasures would not lose their effectiveness within an hour of being dug up.

Xu Zi'an naturally had no such worries.

Back at the villa, after carefully washing it clean with clear water.

Without a second word.

He stuffed it into his mouth and started eating.

Yes.

This was the only way to use this natural treasure.

Of course, referring to this type meant for consumption.

There were also natural treasures for external use, which were definitely a different method.

For example, the natural treasure awakening liquid used during awakening.

That was not for consumption.

It was refined into liquid, placed in a safe, and finally atomized to stimulate bio-energy awakening.

Natural treasures meant for eating had to be eaten raw like this!

Even juicing them wouldn't work.

Whether heated or processed, it would greatly affect the effectiveness of the special substances within.

As for the taste...

A little sour and astringent.

And a little bitter.

In any case, it had nothing to do with being delicious.

And the moment he ate it.

Xu Zi'an used Wealth Points to accelerate absorption and tempering without impurities!

The consumed Wealth Points were also very few.

It only required 1 Wealth Point.

The amount of Wealth Points consumed was determined by the age and grade of the natural treasure consumed.

For this kind of first-grade, one-year-old...

1 Wealth Point was enough.

After using the Wealth Points.

In his field of vision.

A countdown appeared.

This countdown was very small, and if you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't see it.

But if you looked closely, it would be clearly displayed.

【59:59】

One hour!

That is to say.

This one-year-old Steel-Bone Grass could be fully absorbed in just one hour.

And it was the kind of direct strengthening absorption, not the slow kind.

And so...

It had only been ten seconds or so.

Xu Zi'an felt the heat in his entire skeletal structure begin to rise gradually.

And there was a strange sensation.

Xu Zi'an understood.

This was the Steel-Bone Grass taking effect!

Just like that, about an hour passed.

The strange sensation in his bones began to dissipate.

Following that.

Was a slight urge to defecate in his stomach.

Xu Zi'an’s expression was slightly strange.

He finally understood how the impurities were expelled.

He had thought they would be expelled through pores or similar places.

Never would he have thought...

It was actually by pooping.

Alright.

Actually, it was very reasonable.

And very direct.

The effect of the natural treasure had been absorbed.

Xu Zi'an felt it.

Indeed, he could slightly feel that the bone strength had indeed increased by a tiny bit.

But the increase in strength was very, very small.

For a one-year-old stalk...

Don't expect it to have much of an effect.

Next, Xu Zi'an didn't go to harvest new Steel-Bone Grass to consume.

Today, he was just testing the effect.

After all, he had never consumed a natural treasure before; trying it today, it certainly didn't disappoint him.

If consumed long-term.

Xu Zi'an felt that his physique would undergo a earth-shaking change.

But for these next few days.

It was definitely out of the question.

10 Wealth Points had already been spent.
