Raising Ducks for Daily Rewards-Chapter 71: Starting a new Experiment

"Haha, I am babbling on.

You two, don’t take it seriously.

While it’s true that there is such a big open scheme, in fact, it doesn’t really affect us minor cultivators.

As long as we work hard and cultivate well, we will only feel like it’s normal and not feel uncomfortable.

Only those reckless who don’t know how society works will reject such behaviour.

But those people... can’t possibly appear among rogue cultivators, only among sect and family members."

The twins looked at their senior brother in silence, their eyes revealing deep shock and confusion.

Was there really such a scheme? And... was it ’open’?

How come they never saw it? How come no other cultivator they knew perceived it?

Maybe for their senior brother, who had a clear sight, this seemed open.

But for them...

"Anyways, back to the topic. Is he useful or not? The main thing here is that both are important, and there’s a third point –

Intelligence.

He’s neither strong nor works hard and isn’t intelligent either. If he was, he would’ve escaped right after the Beast Attack.

Since he’s lacking everything, such a person doesn’t have much hope on the path of immortality.

The city doesn’t block your path, but if you don’t even know how to follow it, then don’t blame them for making use of someone like you!

Most normal cultivators won’t actually be like him – in the middle age, with the fifth stage, and yet still only cultivating one acre.

In a grassy plain, talented people are trees, normal people are flowers and people like him are grass.

They come and go, and it seems like there are countless of them, but they achieve nothing and aren’t memorable!

Alright, you know the three important things, and I believe both of you have the last two.

Although your strength is lacking, with cultivation, you will gradually be able to fight those enemies of your stage on your own, and with trump cards you might even beat an enemy above.

Aiming for more is of no use, since we’re not going to fight all the time anyways.

Well, go and cultivate your fields, don’t be too shocked about what happened today, yeah?" Fengyu smiled as he walked away towards his own field.

Seeing they were gone, Zimu spoke up, "Quack, brother, why did you tell them all this?"

"Hehe, I believe they have talent, and I think they have their own secrets.

Someone who can open up one of these three points is called a teacher, someone who opens all three is called a master.

Today I opened up their ’intelligence,’ which earns the great title of teacher.

Although they called me senior brother all along, they only did so because I am older and because my cultivation has been higher than theirs.

But from now on, they will gradually catch up and go further.

I can see that their cultivation talent is very high and they’re also creation masters. With my help, achieving great things is indeed possible!"

"Quack, is that also why you’re helping those wolves?"

"Hmm?"

"Quack, the wolves, those who like the moon. Are you also helping them because you see their potential?"

"Potential? I can’t judge their potential. Although the leader has strong bloodline, I don’t really care about that. Bloodline is a blessing and a shackle.

Beasts outside, even if they’re Spirit Beasts, without a clan supporting them, will have it difficult to achieve something beyond their bloodline.

I am simply helping them for the sake of comprehending recovery arts.

Every time I successfully make a wolf recover from their injury, I gain some expertise in my spell, which is quite good, isn’t it?"

Fengyu smiled as he explained.

Any other reward, such as the stalks they talked about, wasn’t very interesting.

He could feed it to his ducks and allow them to cultivate faster on their own, but since all his ducks focused on their bloodline currently, it wasn’t really of help.

Spiritual plants like grass have to be used shortly after being plucked, or at least stored in some jade box.

He got one and intended to keep the grass, maybe giving them out when his ducks needed them, or selling them together later.

...

Back in his field, Fengyu went right to the ducks. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"How should I handle this?"

He looked at an item in his spatial bag –

An organ that looked like a poison sac, yet it had fiery red patterns!

It’s been over a month since he got it, and it was starting to rot slightly.

Even though the space in the spatial bag is without any outer influence, time itself is an influence. After all, this bag is merely an expanded spell and not a separate realm, so it followed the time flow outside.

Keeping the fire sac any longer would waste it.

He looked at the high-quality Spirited Ducks ahead and had a thought, then shook his head.

"No, this sac came from a low-grade fire bear, too strong for a Spirited Duck to handle.

Even if I did give it to them, they would at most gain some fire affinity...

Such affinity isn’t very useful, and it would barely leave a mark in their body.

No wait, what if... what if I expanded the experiment?

What if I didn’t focus on these two, but rather on their bloodline?"

Fengyu had a plan and instantly called forth two high-quality ducks, one being Silver Feather’s descendant, the other being the first Spiritual Duck couple’s descendant.

The female duck was the normal Spiritual Duck’s descendant, whose bloodline is infected with various things, unlike the bloodline of the other beast that has the bloodline of Silver Feather.

He looked at them and took out the fire sac, putting it on his hand and reaching out to the duck to feed it.

"Quack?"

"Yes, this is food for you."

"Quack, quack...?"

"Yes it’s edible."

"Quack quack, quack?"

"Haha, don’t worry, I will make sure you’re fine after eating it!"

"Quack!" the duck grinned and lowered its head, eating the sac right away!
