Chapter 571: 570

“Didn’t Ji Zhi and Ji Kongkong co along?” Jiang Li and his companions walked through the Spirit Plant Sect, observing various peculiar spirit plants.

“Ji Zhi said he has already seen everything once with his heavy pupils and didn’t need to co again,” Yu Yin replied.

“Tch, big deal he knows the path of ti,” Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu scoffed simultaneously, expressing their disdain for Ji Zhi’s mastery over ti.

Yu Yin looked at the two obstinate n, his heart gentle, and decided not to call them out on their bluster.

“The spiritual grains cultivated by the Spirit Plant Sect greatly benefit the continent of Jiuzhou. The yield has increased by sixty percent compared to several hundred years ago and it’s now more resistant to drought, cold, and lodging,” Yu Yin comnted as they passed a wheat field.

The Spirit Plant Sect researched high-quality spiritual grains, with the three having made significant contributions behind the scenes.

Jiang Li suggested that the Spirit Plant Sect research spiritual grains, Bai Hongtu provided technical assistance, and Yu Yin purchased the spiritual grains and promoted them throughout the Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty, advertising for free.

Only then did the yield of the spiritual grains in Jiuzhou increase year by year, reaching heights previously unimaginable to cultivators.

The three passed by a saline pool which was hundreds of ters deep, with spiritual grains planted at the bottom of the pool.

“What’s this for?” Jiang Li asked a disciple who had just surfaced from the pool.

The disciple grimaced, “It’s a task assigned by the elders. The Dragon Palace entrusted us with a project, hoping we could develop spiritual grains that can be cultivated on the seafloor of the Four Seas, so they no longer need to purchase from the mainland. The elders passed the task to .”

“Any results yet?”

“Yes, after three months of underwater experintation, I learned to swim.”

“…”

“Anyway, besides that, I didn’t gain anything.”

“I have a fellow senior brother who is in the sa predicant. The elders assigned him the task of researching spiritual grains that can also thrive in the extre north.”

“What use is that?”

“It’s a commission from the monsters of the extre north. They say there’s a shortage of supplies in the north, not enough food. If this continues, they might end up massacring each other and destroying themselves.”

“So how far along is this senior brother of yours in his research?”

“He’s already got the monsters of the extre north working together to solve the food issue. For his next step, he plans on persuading them to leave the extre north for wherever they wish.”

“…your senior brother has quite the idea,” Yu Yin comnted, too tired to retort.

Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu looked at each other, finding nothing wrong with the idea.

Isn’t this the first thing people think of normally?

The disciple sighed, “Unfortunately, my senior brother’s thod provides no insight. The Dragon Palace can’t possibly move to the land.”

“So how do you plan on tackling this project?” Jiang Li wasn’t very familiar with spirit plant cultivation.

“Advance my cultivation to surpass the elders and give the project back to them.” The disciple was full of fighting spirit; this was his motivation to cultivate.

“We’ll stop pestering you now; I need to claim a spot under the large banyan tree. If I co late, I’ll be left with a spot at the back. I want to sit closer to the front, to close the distance with Jiang, the Human Emperor.”

The disciple waved goodbye to Jiang Li and headed to the great banyan tree to find a spot closest to the Human Emperor.

“Waterlon Hybrid Experint Field?”

In front of Jiang Li was a waterlon field filled with waterlons of all shapes and sizes.

“Venerable visitor, are you interested in this waterlon field?” The Old Farr, who was sitting in the middle of the field, warmly welcod Jiang Li and his party when he saw them.

Jiang Li recognized this person as a God-transformation stage cultivator, at the elder level within the Spirit Plant Sect.

“Never seen anything like it.”

“Then let show you.”

The old farr picked up a waterlon that was densely covered with seeds on its rind. When he cut it open, the inner flesh was red and completely devoid of seeds.

“This is the result of a hybridization between a waterlon and a strawberry. Compared to the original seedless waterlon, there’s no need to buy seeds separately, and the taste is much more layered.”

“There’s only one problem.”

“What is it?”

“People who have trypophobia may feel uncomfortable at the sight of the waterlon rind, such as this female cultivator.”

Yu Yin looked at the waterlon with a disgusted look and then turned her head away.

The farr picked up another fruit that looked normal on the outside, but when he opened it, it was filled with waterlon seeds.

“This is a hybrid product of waterlon and dragon fruit. The seeds, when dried, can be eaten.”

“This is a hybrid of waterlon and coconut. It is full of waterlon juice and saves the process of juicing, but it also has a problem.”

“What is it?”

“The waterlon rind is too hard, not until the Foundation Establishnt Stage, can it be broken open. So, many Qi Cultivation Stage youngsters co here to buy my waterlons and modify them into hamr-like weapons.”

“What annoys the most is that Dao Sect’s Artifact Refinent Peak people ca to poach , saying that my talents are wasted in the Spirit Plant Sect!” The farr was indignant. It wasn’t his fault that his painstakingly cultivated waterlons had beco weapons.

It’s all thanks to the waterlons.

“You’re being modest. Your skill in artifact refining, compared to Jiang Li, is rare. It would be understandable for the Artifact Refinent Peak to approach you.” Bai Hongtu said.

The farr shook his head and laughed, thinking this was impossible.

Jiang Li was wondering if Bai Hongtu could bear his punch that contained full power.

Before they left, the farr gave them each a waterlon, and asked them to promote his fruits when they returned ho.

The three of them agreed with a smile.

Next, the three of them saw a row of tree houses up ahead. A disciple of the Spirit Plant sect took out a seed, planted it in the ground, murmured sothing, and the seed absorbed the spiritual energy, quickly grew into a large tree, with the branches intertwined, forming a dense, windproof house that could shelter from the weather.

“If I rember correctly, this is the house tree the Spirit Plant Sect is planning to promote. However, the growth of these trees requires chanting the ‘Planting Trees Spell’, which is not easy to master. That’s why it hasn’t been successfully promoted yet.” Yu Yin seed to have so impressions about these new Spirit plants.

The Spirit Plant Sect disciple was surprised, he didn’t expect that even outsiders knew about their house trees, “You have a quite broad knowledge, senior. This is our improved version of the House Tree, which no longer requires the user to chant the ‘Planting Trees Spell’.”

The Spirit Plant Sect disciple planted a seed, then took out a recorder, infused it with spiritual energy, and the recorder automatically recited the ‘Planting Trees Spell’. Under the influence, the seed grew into a house.

“This is a recorder developed in collaboration with Ming Zhong World. It can recite the weakened ‘Planting Trees Spell’. The house Tree growth speed is slower by half, but it’s not like we are in a battle, there is no need to chase speed.”

“We have developed both long-term and disposable household trees, suitable for ho use and vacations respectively. They are absolutely environntally friendly.”

“We are preliminarily considering getting intellectual property rights in Zhou Dynasty and then promoting it as a trial.”

“I heard from the officials in Zhou Dynasty, it’s quite troubleso.”

“How is it troubleso?”

“Zhou Dynasty is debating whether to tax it as a real estate or as regular goods. The officials are divided.”

This is a problem that the Zhou Dynasty often faces. Usually, when cultivators invent sothing new, they will try it out in Zhou. Once Zhou understands their invention, they’ll start selling it to other dynasties.

The other dynasties will directly use the results researched by Zhou. For instance, with the House Trees. If Zhou decides that it should be taxed as real estate, other dynasties will also tax it as real estate tax. If Zhou decides to tax it as common goods tax, other dynasties are likely to tax it as real estate tax anyway.

But it’s not excluded that so dynasties will tax it at the highest rate.

“You three seniors should be the guests invited by our Spirit Plant Sect. It’s late now, and if you don’t have a place to sleep, you can spend the night in my tree house.”

All three of them were interested in the House Tree, so following the hint of the Spirit Plant Sect disciple, they went into a Tree House and spent the night playing cards.

The next day, Jiang Li went to the base of the big banyan tree and started his lecture.

Yu Yin placed her wishful gourd on her lap and listened to Jiang Li’s lecture.

Bai Hongtu tore off the curse talisman and sat on it without a care.

He added a small line next to the sentence “Whoever sits here is a puppy” – “Exceptions are Bai Hongtu and dogs.”

Turning into a dog, impossible. I, Bai, am a very cautious person.
