Jiang He withdrew his spirit from the jade scroll.
Beside his ear, a System notification jingled —
[Ding!]
[Immortal physique art detected: Nine Heavenly Star Body Formula. Consume 5000 Farm Points to cultivate the First Tier of the Nine Heavenly Star Body Formula?]
"Learn!"
[Ding!]
[- 10000 Farm Points.]
"Congratulations, Host, you have cultivated the Nine Heavenly Stars Body-Forging Technique to the first level!"
Ooom!
In the split second that the System Notification jingled, Jiang He felt the Universal Force around him changing in a curious manner. It was as if all the Universal Force within several kilometers was drawn by him, surging towards the various acupoints all over his body.
At the same time, streaks of starlight descended from the skies, drowning Jiang He's body.
Starlight descending in broad daylight was a bizarre visual contrast … but the truth was that stars existed at all times, although the sun was too bright during the day, obscuring their radiance.
In that very moment, Jiang He could clearly feel his body rapidly strengthening.
The streaks of starlight refined his qi, blood, flesh, tendons, bones, and skin. Even his bones were faintly tainted with starlight, becoming crystalline.
Soon.
The strengthening stopped.
Jiang He promptly clenched his fists …
Boom!
The air rumbled.
He clenched his fists to the point that air exploded.
"My physical strength alone has increased by at least a few hundred thousand catties!"
"Even top rank-nines would have a hard time penetrating my physical defense …"
Jiang He could feel the changes in his body as he extended his senses, and realized in shock that his Dragon-Elephant Prajna had mysteriously improved by another tier …
"Nine Heavenly Star Body Formula!"
"Dragon-Elephant Prajna!"
"Indestructible Diamond!"
With a thought, Jiang He charged all three cultivation manuals at once, and in that very moment, he resembled a divine general.
Nature Qi swirled around his body, and his body shone in golden radiance with specks of starlight. The silhouette of a divine dragon danced over his head, while a divine elephant trumpeted at the skies, his entire aura resembling that of a savage beast.
Gales billowed, kicking up dust.
Jiang He clenched his fist and punched out into the air.
Kaboom!
Even the air in the void was compressed and exploded by this punch. After this punch, a thunderous explosion rang out.
Withdrawing his fist and his aura, Jiang He said in satisfaction, "Right now, my physique alone is enough to kill a rank-nine elite … if I go all out, cutting down a rank-nine elite would be a piece of cake!"
"My body's defense and recovery ability have both greatly increased. If I were to face the Black King Drake again … its tail might not be able to break my bones."
Of course …
The overall increase in strength was not too strong.
At most, it had increased by ten percent. It was too inconspicuous.
Musing to himself for a while, Jiang He came up with a simple and clear plan for his future path.
In terms of body refining, he mainly practiced the Nine Heavenly Stars Body Forging Technique. As long as his physical strength increased, the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique would naturally improve.
As for the Qi Refinement and Immortal Cultivation technique, he would see if he could "create" one later. If he couldn't "create" one, perhaps he could ask around and see if there were any aristocratic families like the Murong clan who had "immortal techniques" in their collection.
Before that, he had to first cultivate the [Nine Yang Divine Art (Strengthened)].
From Jiang He's perspective, the Nine Yang Technique that he had strengthened would not lose out to some rubbish immortal cultivator.
As for the blade technique, he must not lose out to the Ninefold Thunderblade.
This thing involved the power of the Thunder Concept … He reckoned that if he could cultivate the Ninefold Thunder Blade to perfection, he might be able to forcefully raise his Thunder Concept to perfection as well.
Perfecting the Boundary of Wills was the key to ascending to divine-tier.
"Maybe I could get another sword technique to improve my sword will."
Jiang He could not help shaking his head as the thought crossed his mind, chuckling, "Of course, that's just a temporary plan. What if I come up with a Qi Refinement cultivation technique? What's the point of cultivating the sword or the blade? Wouldn't it be better to go straight to Qi Refinement, Golden Pellet, and True Child?"
With a turn of his hand, Jiang He took out half a sword tip.
It was one of the rewards given to him by the Martial Arts Department (MAD), and was said to be a fragment of a mystic item that Wang Hou had found in a heritage site on Mount Hua.
Of course.
Jiang He did not know the specifics, and he was not bothered to find out.
He would naturally know if it was true.
He dug a hole.
He poured the rest of the Mysterious Soil, buried it, and watered it.
It was lunchtime when he checked the time.
When Jiang He returned home and washed up, Sora had already placed the piping hot dishes on the table.
Today's dish was' Small Gutted Noodles'.
Jiang He had requested for something lighter, which was why he only made stir-fried black wood-ear over meat and tomato egg soup.
Jiang He first had a sip of the tomato egg soup …
Beside him, Sora quickly asked, "Master, is the tomato egg soup to your liking?"
After tasting another mouthful, Jiang He imitated the judges of food shows and closed his eyes to feel it, smacking his lips … but he did not feel anything at all. It was just a plain tomato egg soup, and the taste was just as plain as usual.
"It's alright. After all, tomatoes are just normal tomatoes and eggs are just normal eggs. I'll just plant some tomatoes when I'm free."
"As for eggs …"
"I'll think of a way to get my hands on Feral hens. If there aren't any, I could buy a few hens and think of a way to mutate them. The eggs they lay would definitely be tastier and more nutritious."
Jiang He suddenly did a double take as he ate.
Hens laying eggs?
How troublesome would that be? Moreover, chickens would run all over the house and leave their droppings everywhere, which would easily damage the environment. Should he buy some eggs and try planting them?
"Eggs might really work!"
"Moreover …"
"I have to plant some high-grade rice and noodles to suit my taste."
Jiang He thought then.
Now that his farm had expanded and he had more space, he could plant some rice and wheat.
Just as he finished his meal and was about to have some rank-nine Origin Fluid to rest, Jiang He's face dropped even before he drank a mouthful.
He could feel an immeasurably sharp sword will abruptly bursting out from outside.
Rushing out of the mansion, Jiang He looked up to find a streak of sword light shooting out of his farm like a waterfall, shooting straight up into the clouds. Even the dark clouds up above were torn apart by the sword, before slowly fading away.
What the heck?
Jiang He was speechless.
He did not have to look to know that the other half of the mystic item fragment must have grown!
But why did you have to make such a big fuss over it?
Was it not good to keep a low profile?
Jiang He could not help feeling a headache when he remembered the phenomenon of the Violet Qi when he planted the Violet Flame Lingzhi.
The sword light must have been seen by Duan Tianhe, Cheng Dongfeng, and the others who were stationed at Lingzhou City.
To prevent them from coming to his house and causing trouble again, Jiang He decided to call them ahead of time.
And yet …
Jiang He did not know that Duan Tianhe and Cheng Dongfeng did not feel it.
For one, the sword light lasted too short, and for another …
Normal Martial Dao Grandmasters would not be able to detect anything that involved the power of the Intent Realm.
He dialed Cheng Dongfeng's number.
It rang for several seconds before Cheng Dongfeng answered, smiling, "You're back from Jiangnan, Jiang He?"
"Yeah, I just got home this morning."
"How was it? You must have gained a lot from your trip to Jiangnan, didn't you? Tut, tut … the Blue King Drake attacked the city, General Pei fought, and even Minister Wang fought in the end. I would have gone to Jiangnan too if I knew this would happen. "
Cheng Dongfeng sighed and asked, "By the way, are you alright … calling me?"
"It's nothing."
Jiang He smiled. "Didn't I buy some tufts of Sword Will Barrenwort from Jiangnan?"
"I accidentally grasped sword will just now and caused a little phenomenon. Did it startle you guys?"
"…"
Cheng Dongfeng, who was discussing important matters with Duan Tianhe at the Martial Arts Department (MAD) of Lingzhou City suddenly froze.
His phone was on speakerphone, which was why Duan Tianhe could hear Jiang He's words. All at once, both of them stared at each other, unsure what to say.
"Hello?"
"Hello?"
"Are you there, Master Cheng?"
Jiang He shouted into the phone, but was left speechless and cursed inwardly, "Forget it. I won't call them next time if there's anything. They're always silent halfway through the call. Are they doing this on purpose?"
Thud!
Jiang He promptly hung up.
Now that he had informed them, it was time for him to collect his "magic treasure".
He strode out into the farm.
In a corner of the farm, Dumbo and Trumbo were hugging each other, shuddering and their teeth chattering.
When they saw Jiang He enter, they promptly broke into a run and ran behind Jiang He.
Cat and dog were hugging Jiang He's thighs, both poking their heads out to look at the center of the farm. Dumbo was even pointing with its paw, shuddering as it said, "Master, what is that? The Sword Qi up there is almost scaring me to death! "
"Get lost!"
Jiang He kicked both Dumbo and Trumbo away, barking, "You're all drama queens. Why aren't you running out if you're that scared? What are you waiting in the yard for?"
That's right!
Dumbo, who had just crawled up from the ground blinked a few times, a human-like look flashing over its canine face as it raised its paw and slapped itself on the face, exclaiming in frustration, "Look at my dog brain, why am I so dumb?!"
"Meow, meow, meow ~ ~"
Trumbo clutched its belly and rolled around on the ground, laughing weirdly.
Jiang He was amused.
Withdrawing his gaze, he turned towards the sword light at the center of the farm.
The sword light hung in the air, and Jiang He could clearly sense its sharp Sword Qi even from twenty to thirty meters away.
And at the center of the sword light hovered an ancient scarlet longsword.
Jiang He walked up, extended his hand and plucked the scarlet longsword from the sword light.
[Ding!]
[+ 10,000 Farm Points.]
A System Notification jingled beside his ear then.
Jiang He's spirit stirred … 10,000 Farm Points meant that the scarlet longsword was equal in value to the Nine Heavenly Star Body Formula.
He focused his eyes, and a bunch of data slowly appeared over the scarlet longsword.
[Scarlet Flame Sword]
[Tier: Premium soul weapon]
[Gentle reminder: Sacrifice a drop of blood before use.]
