I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 509 - 7: Sorting the Spoils

Honestly, these treasures were casually chosen by Ning Zheng.

But they shouldn’t be the most precious.

Ning Zheng sighed.

"Their tomb was very large, likely with treasures hidden in concealed mechanical chambers. How could I have time to play treasure hunting with them back then? I could only take the items they had with them."

"Now their grave has been dug three feet deep, all sorts of hidden sects and secret chambers have been pried open and taken away long ago."

"It would have been better if they had left them to me at the time."

Taking the big share was almost joining the various great sect forces of the Giant God.

Giving it to them is given.

Everyone contributed, so taking things is appropriate.

It’s not like I didn’t take anything either.

Taking a bit from each tomb’s forbidden area, all these Heavenly and Earthly Treasures are enough to sustain the foundation of a Holy Land.

"Let’s sort these out."

Ning Zheng poured out the items from the Storage Ring.

The entire manor was brightly lit with shimmering colors.

"Alright!" Jiucai Rong extended a hand, and a group of Little Qilin Child rushed forward.

"Is this a Celestial Spirit Root?"

"Wow! It really is a Celestial Spirit Root."

"This is Nether Flow Divine Gold, such a large piece, enough to craft a Divine Artifact...no, an Immortal Artifact!"

Everyone’s eyes bulged out in surprise.

What an amazing Manor Master!!

Bump up the electronic wooden fish for the Manor Master, burn more paper money for luxurious estates, and find hundreds of beautiful maids to serve.

Initially, they thought after experiencing such a big event, this time around after going online, there would be some sort of buffer period.

Let everyone rest, but who knew the activities kept rolling in?

Now the entire manor was bustling with activity.

Jiucai Rong led the team to sort these treasures; luckily, the items Ning Zheng took were all exquisite and small, finishing sorting in just over ten minutes.

After all, they were no longer ignorant, with refined knowledge of treasure division.

Meanwhile, the Yin Yang Creation Furnace also started for the first time in a hundred years.

"Ape God, activate!"

Crash!

Bloodline fusion, Ancient Ape bloodline of the Human God + Qilin, an egg quickly fused together.

After hatching, a young blacksmith eagerly landed.

This Qilin Child seemed a bit stocky now, much more robust.

"Use this grip gauge, hmm... Strength increased by thirty percent."

"Push-ups, hmm... Endurance increased by seventy percent."

"Impressive!"

"Indeed, the ancestors of the ancient Human Race!"

They were swift and decisive.

Immediately came up with several basic fusion models, and even a primitive ape tribe member emerged, covered in fur, scratching its ears, with its mouth full of nonsense like ’Old Jade Emperor, taste this strike from old Sun!’

The entire manor was bouncing around, a troop of monkeys practically turning this place into Huaguo Mountain in the ocean.

Ning Zheng watched for a while and knew this manor would be full of the descendants of the Human God in the future!

If the outside forces saw this, they would surely be stunned, thinking the Human God had left some tricks up his sleeve.

Of course, Ning Zheng could almost foresee:

In the future, defeating each opponent would be like collecting a figurine, able to land a "build boss character."

Young blacksmiths would inherit the opponent’s will and body and carry it forward.

This is probably the spirit of Green Hat Manor.

Ning Zheng sighed with emotion.

In the future, their manor would not only have various Immortal Beast Ancestors but also various historical behind-the-scenes bosses.

Outsiders coming to the manor would feel like they were seeing historical illustrations, their expressions would surely be wonderful.

Merely the Chronicles of Time, recording historical imperial mausoleums, would fall short here.

"Ultimately, it’s because the Yin Yang Creation Furnace is too powerful, species fusion gives us many character choices!"

Ning Zheng did not think much, arranging work with the Spirit Farmer district chief Mudworker, prioritizing cultivation of the Human God’s Celestial Spirit Root.

After all, still waiting to advance.

Stepping into the Immortal Spirit Root himself was keeping up with the times.

Mudworker was savvy enough, storing the fresh blood in special storage to prevent energy loss, explaining:

"Sir, the innate spirit root inside the human body cannot be fully converted into the postnatal spirit root in plants."

"We can only use a low-tier Spirit Grass of the Yang Spirit Root... irrigating with the Human God’s blood, targeted mutation, generations evolve closer to the original Human God’s bloodline Divine Techniques, finally becoming... Human God Grass."

Ning Zheng understood.

Even the Xinyi Family, trying to steal the Celestial Spirit Root from their own bloodline to cultivate it into a targeted plant, hasn’t managed to achieve a complete cultivation in countless years, depicting the difficulty!

"What Spirit Grass do you plan to use as a base to nourish the blood of Human God?" Ning Zheng frowned.

"The Middle Grade Yang Spirit Root of the Blood Separation Flower would be quite good."

Mudworker replied respectfully, "This Spirit Root is the one we’re most familiar with, it’s quite suitable for variation."

"Moreover, the Blood Separation Flower doesn’t have any Upper Grade Spirit Root for reference, just a complete blank. It’s better to advance in the direction of Human God."

"With constant nourishment of Treasure Blood, the Blood Separation Flower transforms into Upper Grade, Celestial Grade, and ultimately integrates into an Immortal Spirit Root. Theoretically feasible."

Ning Zheng thought about it and decided not to intervene, as he wasn’t professional: "So, are any resources missing?"

Mudworker scratched his head cluelessly, "We’re not lacking in resources; we have even stolen techniques from Doukou Hong. We possess the basic skills for targeted cultivation; maybe it’s just a bit of luck that’s missing."

"Luck?" Ning Zheng fell into contemplation.

"You’re aware! Spirit Farmer is the profession most reliant on luck. Some plants have mutated hundreds of times, each time negatively, relying heavily on a person’s character."

"Why is the Doukou Family the top Shennong family? Because they don’t rely on luck, their family’s Divine Techniques can roughly lock onto the direction of possible mutation and fusion, and conduct qualitative selection."

"They eliminate the element of luck, hence they are the first Shennong."

"Luck, huh?" Ning Zheng nodded, understanding that he could eliminate the element of luck, or rather, enhance it.

In a certain sense, he was the opposite of the Doukou Family.

But lately, he indeed lacked some luck.

After sleeping for a hundred years, he used the Qi Fortune Value of 10 billion accumulated over a century from female prisoners to awaken, leaving him penniless.

Mudworker said:

"If luck isn’t in our favor, we could contact the Doukou Family for help?"

Ning Zheng shook his head, "We’ll research it ourselves and believe our luck will be good."

Mudworker’s eyes lit up.

"The developer eventually favors us; are they going to adjust the probabilities again?"

"Utterly inconsiderate of humanity!"

Indeed, nothing in this world escapes the malicious developer who modifies parameters sneaky, poor Doukou Hong and other NPCs, so tragic.

Ning Zheng ignored him; anyway, these blacksmiths could guess what was going on due to much experience.

The Doukou Family is undesirable as dependency.

Previously, with their various fusion and mutation predictions, they saved him a lot of time and resources, creating various series of weapons.

But those weapons were for sale.

The bloodline of Human God presently, involving his core, he dared not let them research it!

It was precisely because he’d done too many unscrupulous things, leaving hidden traps in everybody’s commercial orders, like Eternal Sun Moon and Eternal Nine-State Cauldron...

He could do it, why couldn’t they? It’s normal for the Doukou Family to leave hidden traps in the Spirit Root order!

While Ning Zheng was thinking, beneath the floor hatch and corners of the house walls, little blacksmiths poked their heads, chattering secretly.

"Damn, why not let the Doukou Family help?"

"Mommy, developers must also consider gameplay, okay? Always outsourcing, are you here to play games or what? We need to forge iron and farm ourselves."

"You don’t understand, you farm, I play NPC, tricking them to work, gives joy too."

"You truly don’t know, this time not letting the Doukou Family help involves our roots; know we are the Cao Manor, and what’s the trait of Cao? Jealousy and suspicion! Doukou Hong might leave hidden traps!"

"Damn, suspicion!! I’d rather be jealous of all than let all be jealous of me. That’s consistently following the core idea of the game’s main storyline."

...

A group of little blacksmiths mystically huddled in the corner, deeply shocked.

Indeed, Sword Casting Manor has profound intentions, under the guise of suspicion, letting them unfold further research.

Ultimately, mastering core technologies keeps one autonomous!

"Looks like we still have to accumulate Qi Fortune Value."

Ning Zheng was used to their whispering now; ordinarily, people couldn’t stand lurking darkly watching themselves.

Now, still, it’s a hundred years ago, with a speed of 25,000 Qi Fortune Value per day; it’s somewhat insufficient.

million Qi Fortune Value to break through a Two-Phase Realm.

Now it takes 40 days to breakthrough!

A full forty days to break through a realm, more than a month.

That’s become tortoise speed.

"Got to find a way to reap some Qi Fortune Value."

Ning Zheng thought, having once been wealthy, reaping Nine-State Qi Fortune with explosive increments like +2 billion; with frequent billion-level transactions, his sights had been lifted somewhat.

But only in those Nine-State level crises could he deceive the public to "donate," now he lacked that kind of opportunity.

The manor in front is running again, and he tossed a huge amount of loot, set various tasks, letting them start gathering crazily.

These few days, small blacksmiths were busy.

Ning Zheng considered it might be time to head out himself, visit Xi Rong City, and observe the Qi from afar to see if anything happened to the Sword Fairy and others.
