Chapter 950: I Am A Mortal (2/2)
”Thank you Elder SIster Mian He.” Mo Wuji quickly thanked her as he received the god crystals.
”60 high grade god crystals, so I'll give you 60 Green Dew Rice seeds.” Guang Zhi threw a small sack onto the table.
Without taking the sack immediately, Mo Wuji calmly asked, ”Manager Guang, if I harvest intermediate grade or high grade Green Dew Rice, do I have to submit 20 catties as well?”
Upon hearing this, Guang Zhi looked at Mo Wuji impatiently, ”If you harvest intermediate grade, submit 8 catties. If it's high grade, submit 4 catties, and for unique grade, submit half a catty, as long as you have the ability to produce them.”
Mo Wuji didn't bother about Guang Zhi's mocking, and asked again, ”If I manage to harvest a higher grade of Green Dew Rice, can I exchange it for some lower grade Green Dew Rice seeds?”
”Haha…” Guang Zhi burst out laughing, and after he was done, he stared at Mo Wuji, ”You can submit whatever you want. But if you can't even meet the minimum quota, don't blame me for not giving you face. Please leave, I still have work to settle here.”
Mian He pulled Mo Wuji out of Guang Zhi's room with a sour expression on her face. While they had already left the room, he could still hear Guang Zhi's laughter.
”Mo Wuji, I won't send you to the farmland already. I'll go back and speak to my lady and see if she can do anything for you.” Mian He had already developed a good impression of him after this half day of interaction.
In response, Mo Wuji corrected her, ”Elder Sister Mian He, please don't report what happened here to your master, just tell her that everything has been arranged properly for me.”
This made Mian He fall silent, as she understood what Mo Wuji meant. A moment later, she nodded her head, ”You're a pretty good guy, my lady wasn't wrong to help you. I'll be taking my leave, if I have the time in the future, maybe I'll pop by to visit you.”
After she finished her piece, Mian He took out a flying ship and disappeared completely.
…
An hour later, Mo Wuji stood at the foot of a mountain, which was littered with pebbles and weeds, with an ugly expression on his face. This was plot D79.
Even if this plot of land wasn't of such poor quality, it was still located at the extreme borders of the Minor High Firmament Village's god spiritual array.
Based on the information he gathered, planting good Green Dew Rice required good spring water. The people who planted Green Dew Rice also invited some god array masters to set up spiritual arrays and dug a well. But all these required god crystals.
Thankfully, Mo Wuji was a Grade 4 god array master himself. His main intention of coming here was not to plant Green Dew Rice, but to investigate why he couldn't advance in cultivation level. Since this area had god spiritual veins and an energy gathering array, god spiritual energy here was extremely dense, making it very suitable for cultivation.
As he thought of this, MO WUji immediately drew out a high grade immortal equipment cave, and asked Da Huang and Shuai Guo to come out to clear up the plot of land. He would continue to absorb god spiritual energy in the cave while searching for the reason for his inability to advance in cultivation level.
All of the people who planted Green Dew Rice here were very busy men. If they did their jobs well, the excess rice could be consumed by themselves and even sold. However, Mo Wuji was focused on cultivating and finding out why he couldn't progress in cultivating.
”Shuai Guo, you and Da Huang enter the cave and cultivate. Let me plant these Green Dew Rice seeds.” Ultimately, Mo Wuji decided to humbly plant the Green Dew Rice.
Initially, when he faced the tens of cultivators from the Nine Evolution Sect and Phoenix Soul God Estate, he consumed a large number of pills, so who knew if that was when he became afflicted with pill poisoning.
Theoretically speaking, he had the detoxification meridian, so there shouldn't be the problem of being poisoned. However, pill poison was different from normal poisons. Pill poison wouldn't affect anything but one's cultivation. Green Dew Rice could serve as an antidote, hence he could try to eat some of the rice he harvested in the future.
When they crossed the Nirvana Ocean, Da Huang and Shuai Guo knew how important one's strength was, so now that Mo Wuji asked them to cultivate in an area with more than enough god spiritual energy, both of them simply went to cultivate.
Mo Wuji began to consolidate his thoughts and started to work on his plot of land.
He had done some farming before on Earth. Regardless whether it was normal rice or Green Dew Rice, they were harvested from rice paddies. On top of that, he was a biologist and a Pill Emperor, so he couldn't believe that he wouldn't be able to produce a slightly better quality rice.
After the farmland had been sorted out, he set up a simple rain array. Then, one by one the seeds were planted into the ground with a regular spacing between them.
At first, Mo Wuji still wanted to finish the task as soon as possible, but once he began planting the Green Dew Rice into the ground, he totally forgot that he was a cultivator. In that moment, he was just an ordinary farmer. The most ordinary of mortals who worked hard for food.
When he forgot that he was a cultivator, when he did not cultivate anymore, when he seriously planted seed after seed into the ground bent over back, the obstacle in his cultivation level was torn apart in that instant. The cultivation level that remained stagnant for years started to rise wildly, and in a short period of time, he went from elementary Nascent God Level 3 to intermediate Nascent God Level 3.
”I understand now, I am a mortal.” Mo Wuji slowly straightened his back with a glint of excitement in his eyes. But this emotion disappeared as quickly as it came, and he once again turned into an ordinary mortal planting rice.
