(Ding: Host opened the Cultivation Treasure Chest and received 50 Cultivation Points.)
(Ding: Host opened the Cultivation Treasure Chest and received 50 Cultivation Points.)
(Ding: Congratulations Host, you've hit the jackpot! Upon opening the Heavenly Dao Diligence Treasure Chest, you received a Secret Realm!)
(Ding: Congratulations Host, you are truly blessed by the God of Joy! Upon opening the Heavenly Dao Diligence Treasure Chest, you received the Geomancy Secret Art, Spirit Seeking Art!!!)
The sound was very loud.
And it came with two congratulations.
However, this time there was no Divine Beast Embryo.
Could it be, as the System said, that the probability of obtaining a Divine Beast Embryo is extremely low?
System: 'Host, do not doubt, the probability of obtaining a Divine Beast Embryo is indeed extremely low, extremely low, extremely low!'
Li Ping'an chuckled, "You are the System that is omnipotent, above and below, you should have a way to increase the probability, right?"
System: 'Don't try to trick me, this System is smarter than a monkey.'
"..."
Li Ping'an pouted, this System was a bit silly, even scolding itself.
His thoughts flickered, focusing on the Secret Realm in the System's warehouse to examine it.
'Secret Realm'
'Grade: First Grade'
'Area: One mu'
'Status: Lifeless, requires Spiritual Qi replenishment with Spirit Stones before it can be planted, can also be used as a warehouse.'
'Description: The Secret Realm is a unique small world. Planting within it does not require consideration of seasons. It can be upgraded to expand its area. Upgrade conditions require two Secret Realms of the same grade.'
"Use."
(Ding: Use successful)
As the sound fell, Li Ping'an's mind trembled, and then he saw a Secret Realm with an area of one mu.
Inside, it was empty, truly lifeless.
Li Ping'an asked, "How many Spirit Stones will it take to make the Secret Realm vibrant?"
System: 'At least several hundred Spirit Stones.'
Li Ping'an was a bit troubled, "I don't even have one."
System: 'No Spirit Stones? Spiritual Plants, Spiritual Fruits, Divine Medicines, anything like that will do.'
Li Ping'an pouted, "I have even less of those things."
System: 'Don't try to deceive me, isn't there half a First-Grade Corn Essence in the warehouse?'
"A First-Grade Corn Essence will work too?"
Li Ping'an showed a smile, that was indeed a method. Although half a Corn Essence was far from enough, it would slowly accumulate.
"Swish~"
His thoughts flickered, and his entire body entered the Secret Realm.
"Woof woof~ Boss, where did you go?"
"Moo~ moo~ Lost, Boss is lost."
Heihe and Niuniu became restless.
"Stop barking aimlessly, both of you come in with me."
Li Ping'an locked onto the two of them and directly brought them into the Secret Realm.
"What is this place? Why is it as desolate as a mass grave?"
Heihe looked around with curiosity in his eyes.
"It's so quiet here, Boss wouldn't have ill intentions towards us, would he?"
"Slap~ Slap~" Li Ping'an gave them both a slap, "If you can't speak properly, don't talk nonsense."
"This is a Secret Realm. In the future, when it's windy or rainy, we can hide in here, it's very safe."
The System spoke, 'Host, you are not safe at all like this. When the Secret Realm is released, there is an entrance left outside.'
'Therefore, when releasing it, the Host must be in a safe place, or set up an illusion array or a killing array.'
"In that case, it's not quite perfect."
Li Ping'an muttered, then called Heihe and Niuniu to leave together.
After coming out, he indeed saw the entrance to the Secret Realm.
It was like a ripple suspended in the Void Realm. Even if ordinary people didn't know what it was, cultivators would certainly understand.
Putting away the Secret Realm, Li Ping'an focused on the so-called Geomancy Secret Art, Spirit Seeking Art.
Upon seeing this, Li Ping'an immediately grinned from ear to ear, "Spirit Seeking Art can locate Spirit Stone veins and auspicious geomantic sites based on mountains, rivers, the Qi of clouds and water, and the myriad phenomena of stars."
"Good stuff, this is truly good stuff. Let me use it!"
(Ding: 100 Cultivation Points deducted, Geomancy Secret Art, Spirit Seeking Art comprehended to the first stage: Observe Terrain!)
His mind trembled slightly, and he mastered the Secret Art.
Li Ping'an pondered for a moment, deciding to try it out to see the effect. Perhaps there really would be a spiritual field nearby.
"Buzz~"
When Li Ping'an performed Observe Terrain, his entire being entered an ethereal state. He seemed to be able to hear the wind's whispers and clearly perceive another kind of Qi fluctuation in the Void Realm.
And this, should be the so-called Spiritual Qi!
At the same time, his Spirit Power began to decrease rapidly at a rate of 100 points per second. The surrounding terrain was all mapped into his mind.
There seemed to be a layer of gloom that, as his Spirit Power decreased, began to spread and expand from his body as a point, covering the forests and land.
(Ding: Observe Terrain has reached its maximum exploration range limit, and no auspicious geomantic site was found.)
It failed.
It wasn't too surprising.
However, the Spirit Power deduction was too terrifying.
In just this short time, 3000 points were wasted!!!
"No more, no more, no more."
Li Ping'an stopped exploring, feeling a deep heartache.
If this were used for watering, it would be thirty times, at least 60 Cultivation Points.
"Little ones, continue shucking corn."
Li Ping'an sat down, tearing at the corn, "Remember, this time there's good stuff, so no stealing, it has a big use."
Heihe obediently nodded and joined in.
In this regard, Niuniu was clearly a bit inferior to Heihe, but he had his own method.
One bite at a time, and when he spit it out, the corn cob and the corn kernels were perfectly separated.
After all the corn kernels were done, Li Ping'an was shocked to find that he hadn't gotten a single First-Grade Corn Essence.
In other words, all the special harvest from these two mu of spiritual fields had been eaten by the two of them!
Two days passed peacefully. The thirty mu of corn in Da Huai Village had already matured. Although it was already autumn, the air still carried the heat wave of late summer.
In the farmland.
Li Ping'an, slightly excited, led the two little ones to pick corn. This was thirty mu of land. Even if there were no First-Grade Corn Essences, there should be plenty of Cultivation Treasure Chests and Heavenly Dao Diligence Treasure Chests, right?
He displayed his full speed, his corn-picking hand speed becoming increasingly skilled, darting about rapidly.
The plot was too large.
Even so, it took a full day to completely pick all the corn from these thirty mu.
This time, Heihe and Niuniu showed no changes. Perhaps they hadn't discovered any special harvests, or they had obediently not stolen any.
What was disappointing was that these thirty mu of farmland only yielded three Cultivation Treasure Chests and three Heavenly Dao Diligence Treasure Chests!
After clearing away the corn stalks, Li Ping'an wielded a hoe and turned the soil.
Indeed, just as the System had said, these farmlands that had been destroyed and had already yielded two harvests would no longer provide Cultivation Points.
Therefore, this area had to be temporarily abandoned.
Under the night sky.
Li Ping'an continued to shuck corn with Heihe and Niuniu, working so diligently that even the System greatly admired him.
"Open all treasure chests."
(Ding: Opened Cultivation Treasure Chest, obtained 50 Cultivation Points...)
There were no surprises.
The three Cultivation Treasure Chests only gave 150 Cultivation Points.
(Ding: Congratulations Host, opened a Heavenly Dao Diligence Treasure Chest, obtained the Farmer's Legacy: Great Harvest Art.)
(Ding: Congratulations Host, opened a Heavenly Dao Diligence Treasure Chest, obtained the Myriad Things Growth Technique.)
(Ding: Congratulations Host, congratulations Host, jealous of Host, kill Host! You obtained the Farmer's Legacy Secret Art: Puppet Scarecrow upon opening a Heavenly Dao Diligence Treasure Chest...)
