The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife-Chapter 487: Spiritual Soil (Fifth Update, Making up for Yesterday)
The Black Dragon was also unaware, but Jiang Nuo thought back to before this bird appeared, what was he doing?
It seemed like, he planted the spiritual soil, and it sprouted a crop of Spirit Rice?
Wait, breathing soil?
"Honey, do you still remember the spiritual soil you gave me before?"
Mu Qiuniang was confused, "I never gave it to you!"
"Little Fish, have you forgotten?" Jiang Nuo reminded her.
Mu Qiuniang suddenly realized, "I remember now, but you found it yourself!"
Jiang Nuo grinned, "You handed it to me, and you even told me it was breathing soil."
[You have spiritual soil?] asked the Black Dragon.
"Yes! But only a handful!"
The Black Dragon was speechless, a handful is already a lot, how much more do you want?
[Is it Shennong’s spiritual soil? It’s said his soil can give birth to all things, and every time something grows, it’s different. If so, then it’s the function of breathing soil.]
"But where did these birds come from?"
"Maybe you created the conditions for it to grow, so it appeared!" Mu Qiuniang pondered, there’s an ancient saying that phoenixes are attracted to parasol trees, maybe it’s something like that.
However, they used Spirit Rice, and what it attracted were Spirit Rice birds.
[Hmm, it’s possible. You can try planting other things to see what else you might attract.] suggested the Black Dragon.
Jiang Nuo seemed troubled, "But I’ve used up all my spiritual soil?"
[Well, wait till next time?]
"Wait, I think I have some special seeds..." Including that one, initially suspected to be a close relative of Mu Wanlian, but later confirmed by her not to be.
But as for what it actually is, no one knew.
Jiang Nuo took out a seed.
The Black Dragon frowned, [I seem to smell a particularly familiar scent, it’s my least favorite smell.]
"There’s no smell, this seed... actually smells quite fragrant!" Jiang Nuo brought the seed to his nose and sniffed it.
[Hmm...] The Black Dragon shook its head, [It’s definitely my least favorite smell, in all the inherited memories, there’s nothing more unpleasant than this.]
Jiang Nuo joked, "Could it be the scent of your natural enemy?"
He was just joking, but unexpectedly, the Black Dragon seriously nodded, [Quite likely!]
Jiang Nuo hesitated, "Then should I still plant it?"
The Black Dragon laughed, [There are so many things in this world that I dislike, you can’t just plant none of them, can you? Go ahead, plant it. I just dislike its existence, it’s not that you can’t bear its existence. Besides, this is a new world, rich in species and resources, and that’s how it should be!]
Since spiritual soil can grow anything, even things that grow in water, can thrive here.
Thus, Jiang Nuo wasn’t worried at all that it wouldn’t grow.
If even spiritual soil can’t grow something, it just means that thing was never going to grow.
He uprooted some Spirit Rice stalks, cleared some blackened soil, dug a hole, and buried the seed.
"Should I water it?" Jiang Nuo asked.
The Black Dragon thought for a moment, [If there’s Spiritual Spring, you can pour some over it. In my inherited memory, this thing loves Spiritual Springs!]
Mu Qiuniang said, "I have some Spiritual Spring!"
She then took some out from her Space Ring and poured it over the seed.
"There doesn’t seem to be any movement!" Jiang Nuo stared at where he planted the seed, rubbing his chin.
[Maybe it needs time! This thing may cause quite a stir!] said the Black Dragon.
"Then honey, let’s go do something else first, and come back to check later."
"Okay!" Mu Qiuniang nodded.
So, Jiang Nuo wielded the Divine Weapon Thunder Light Sword and continued flying in the sky toward the front.
They didn’t know how long they flew, but they still hadn’t reached the end. As they flew, Jiang Nuo continuously cast spells, covering the ground with green. As more and more plants appeared on the land, various forms of life emerged among them, blue butterflies with glowing wings, cicadas with a pleasant chirp, and small animals running across the grass.
But, no humans!
Jiang Nuo even picked a particularly high mountain, dug a hole at the peak, and scattered Spiritual Springs inside. Because Mu Qiuniang told him, this kind of environment easily generates Spiritual Springs, if there’s an existing Spiritual Spring as a primer, and a Spirit Gathering Array is set up, it would grow even faster.
Because the Spiritual Essence Little Light Ball was still sleeping, they couldn’t make it dig spirit veins, so they took the spirit stones it produced, found another place, planted them, and set up a Spirit Gathering Array.
Hoping one day, a new spirit vein might grow.
They worked hard for a long time, and Jiang Nuo’s stomach began to feel a bit hungry.
"Honey, don’t you feel a bit hungry?"
"Yeah!"
People at the Divine Separation Stage wouldn’t feel hungry anymore; Jiang Nuo, being used to living as a normal person, still felt hunger.
"Why does it seem like it’s still early, yet I’m getting hungry so fast?" Jiang Nuo looked at the sun in the sky, puzzled.
Mu Qiuniang was also puzzled, "Don’t you think we’ve already done a lot today?"
"Yeah, it feels like time is passing a bit slowly!"
[Not slow, very slow!] The Black Dragon’s voice suddenly interjected.
Jiang Nuo was startled, "Weren’t you resting?"
[I wanted to rest, but I realized something, you forgot to set day and night. I couldn’t sleep at all lying there.] 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Jiang Nuo: "..." Is that even possible?
Mu Qiuniang looked at him, and for some reason, Jiang Nuo felt she had a pitiful expression in her eyes.
"I didn’t mean to!"
"I know!"
"I’ll set it up now, wait, how do I set it up?"
The Black Dragon replied, [Aren’t you the Creator God? Shouldn’t you know this?]
Jiang Nuo was at a loss, "I don’t even know how this world was created. It seems like I just thought about it..."
The nighttime scenery appeared in his mind.
The whole sky darkened, everything was covered in a pale moonlight, a golden crescent hung high in the sky, a vast wilderness...
[Stop, stop, stop...] The Black Dragon hurriedly stopped him, if he imagined any further, the earth would have to change again.
Jiang Nuo came back to his senses and found that the mountain they were previously standing on had turned into a nighttime plain.
Jiang Nuo: "..." Did he do that?
[You just need to think ’day’ and ’night,’ no need to think too much!] said the Black Dragon.
Jiang Nuo’s expression was a bit strange, "What if, I start daydreaming?" Like, thinking about his own personal affairs.
The Black Dragon taught him a method, [It’s simple, set a ’key’ for yourself, when you need to change the world, use the ’key,’ and when you don’t need to change the world, don’t use it. That way, your thoughts won’t disrupt the world.]
