Three months later, at Green Jade Mountain, within a Spirit Field.
“Order spreads swiftly, as fast as wind and fire, call forth drought or rain at will!”
“Wind rises!”
“Clouds gather!”
“Thunder arrives!”
“Rain falls!”
Xiao Miao stood at the edge of the field, forming hand seals, chanting spells, and mana flowed from within him like water.
Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, thunder rumbled faintly, and a patch of rain clouds gathered above the field, quickly turning into a downpour.
After an unknown amount of time, the clouds dissipated and the rain cleared. The rice plants in the Spirit Field were all brilliantly shining, verdant and dripping with life, carved as if from beautiful jade. They didn’t resemble rice plants at all but rather seemed like jade or emerald seeds, it was as if someone extravagantly treated these precious materials as mundane, planting them right into the field.
“Phew!”
As the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped, and the spellcasting was complete, Xiao Miao too let out a sigh of relief, wiping imaginary sweat from his brow and thinking to himself, “The ‘Cloud Cover and Rain Skill’ from the Taoist Scriptures is indeed profound, its effect is almost three times that of the ordinary Cloud Rain Skill, no wonder this Green Jade Rice grows so well, yielding two harvests in just three months.”
“It’s not that exaggerated. Although the Cloud Cover and Rain Skill is mystical, it can’t possibly be three times more effective than the ordinary Cloud Rain Skill. The rapid growth of this Green Jade Rice should be attributed to the seeds and the Spirit Field,” a voice rang out, and in his mind, Elder Zhen commented, “Who knows what methods that person employed to double the yield of the Spirit Plants and significantly improve their quality. Could it be that besides Array Formation, he’s also proficient in the cultivation of Spiritual Medicine?”

“This…”
“That’s for sure, that old monster is just that, an old monster, he knows all kinds of messy stuff. With that spare time, why wouldn’t he focus solely on Array Formation? Maybe he could’ve become an Immortal Spirit Formation Master or even a True Immortal of Array Formation by now.”
Elder Zhen grumbled on, leaving Xiao Miao speechless, but he couldn’t just interrupt, so he had to wait for him to calm down.
“However, it’s also good. If he were a True Immortal of Array Formation, then he would surely be unbeatable by that tortoise egg Tianshu from the Big Dipper Immortal Sect, and the ownership of the Void Spirit Realm wouldn’t be in any doubt,” Elder Zhen continued.
“Now, with two tigers fighting, one is bound to get hurt. It’s the perfect opportunity for us to fish in troubled waters…” Elder Zhen rambled on while Xiao Miao had no choice but to listen patiently.
Just then, someone approached, raising a hand in greeting to Xiao Miao, “Impressive Cloud Cover and Rain Skill, Miao bro!”
It was an old farmer with white hair and a face lined with age but still sprightly and agile.
He came to Xiao Miao’s side and looked at the Green Jade Rice that had just been bathed in the spiritual rain and then at Xiao Miao, who looked as usual. He couldn’t help but express his admiration: “Young is good, you learn everything so quickly. In plot number three of the third class, it is your field that is cultivated the best. No wonder the overseer has commended you numerous times.”
Xiao Miao smiled, “I’m just lucky to have both Water and Wood Spiritual Roots, which give me an advantage when using such spells. It’s nothing special. Rather, it’s Uncle Tian who has the genuine skill of a Spiritual Plant Farmer. You must be tier two by now.”
Hearing this, the old farmer also waved his hand dismissively, “I’ve farmed for over a hundred years, gaining a bit of insight through hard practice, it’s nothing impressive. If you’re interested, Miao Bro, I would sell my skills to you for a low price, a few Spirit Stones will do.” freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
“This…”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Miao was also taken aback.
“This old guy is just here to swindle Spirit Stones, don’t bother with him. What kind of Spiritual Plant Farmer’s abilities can compare to a single finger of me, a Formation Master?” Elder Zhen said disdainfully in his mind, “Moreover, why buy a Spiritual Plant Farmer’s inheritance when Green Jade Mountain has already given you one? That ‘Taoist Scriptures · Agricultural Book’ is top-notch knowledge for Spiritual Plant cultivation, do you need his shoddy tier two inheritance?”
Elder Zhen was scornful in his speech.
However, Xiao Miao did not refuse but looked at the old farmer with his white hair and deeply lined face, and probed, “Uncle Tian, are you collecting Spirit Stones to attend an auction?”
“No,” replied the old farmer, shaking his head with a bitter smile. “How could my meager possessions dare to aim for treasures at an auction? I just want to go to the market to buy a Foundation Building Pill to see if I can break through to Foundation Establishment.”
After saying this, his eyes became earnest and fiery as he looked at Xiao Miao, “Miao Bro, the overseer has rewarded you with so many Spirit Stones, could you lend me some?”
“I will give you my Spiritual Plant Farmer inheritance, and the Green Jade Rice in my field, which is growing quite well; it’s definitely going to be a bountiful harvest. I’ll repay you with interest.”
“Although Green Jade Mountain has bestowed the Agricultural Book, blind trust in books is not as good as no books at all, you still have to combine theory with practice.”
“Why else would my field be the best cultivated if everyone has the Agricultural Book?”
“It’s because of my many years of experience as a Spiritual Plant Farmer!”
“I can teach you hands-on, and I guarantee you’ll become the top Spiritual Plant Farmer in plot number three of the third class or even the entire third class.”
In his plea, he pinned all his hopes on Xiao Miao.
Xiao Miao, seeing this, felt helpless but produced a Storage Bag, “Let’s draw up a promissory note then.”
“Of course, of course!”
Upon hearing this, the old farmer immediately took out paper and pen from the Storage Bag, drew up a promissory note with Xiao Miao, and after receiving the Storage Bag, he said, “Brother Xiao, I am indebted to you for your great kindness and will repay you one day!”
Xiao Miao merely nodded, not saying much, but he sighed inwardly.
The farmer before him, with his Perfect Qi Refinement cultivation, shouldn’t have to be so humble.
However, he was a prisoner, a cultivator of the Green Jade Sect, stripped of all his possessions, and now had to rely on farming to make a living.
That would have been enough, but then Spell King Shifa took over the Green Jade Sect and reopened the market, promoting a big sale, brutally slashing the prices of cultivation resources like Spirit Rice, Spiritual Medicine, and Spirit Pills.
Included among them, was the Foundation Building Pill.
