The Scarlet Flame Sword turned into a crimson sword ray that danced around the farm. The sound of the sword cutting through the air was endless.
"Return!"
After playing for a long time.
With a wave of Jiang He's hand, the Scarlet Flame Sword turned back into a scarlet flash and returned to the sea of swords between his brows.
Turning on his System Panel, Jiang He stared at it —
[Name: Jiang He]
[Cultivation: Immortal Cultivator, full-fledged Qi Refinist; Martial Arts: rank-eight pinnacle]
[Ability: Royal Sword, fire]
[Martial Arts Cultivation: Indestructible Diamond (Mastery +), Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms (+), Blind Princess's Eight Practices (Second Practice +), Strengthened Nine Yang Technique (Fifth Tier +), Ninefold Thunderblade (Third Tier +), Dragon-Elephant Prajna (Fifth Tier +), Nine Heavenly Stars Body Formula (First Tier), Three Thousand Calamities (First Tier)]
[Owned Land: 3 Mu]
[Farm Level: 4 (EXP 10800/50000)]
[System Backpack: 18]
[System Shop: Unlocked]
[Farm Points: 62,000]
There were some changes in the System Panel. For example, the 'Cultivation' column, which only displayed martial arts before, now had an 'Immortal Cultivator'. It was more or less what Jiang He had guessed.
His farm's EXP and Farm Points had increased exponentially as well. The Three Thousand Calamities and the two extra-large tufts of Twenty-Seven-Leafed Sword Will Barrenwort alone earned Jiang He 40,000 Farm Points and 4,000 EXP.
"Mystic energy, True Qi."
Jiang He could not help chuckling as he felt the two energies coexisting in his body. "I'm cultivating both martial arts and immortal arts now, am I not? According to novels, those who cultivate both martial arts and immortal arts at the same time would usually fail, with the exception of the pig trotters … I might be an average martial arts newbie and immortal arts novice, but I don't think it's that hard to cultivate martial arts and immortal arts at the same time. "
"If push comes to shove, I'll farm more … I'll eventually cultivate to the pinnacle."
How awesome did martial arts and immortal arts sound?
Of course.
Jiang He's main objective was to hide his trump card.
The world was dangerous, and Jiang He had a deep understanding of it. The Sky Demon Cult, for example, would send a bunch of elites to kill him whenever they had nothing to do, from the rank-four Cordo to the Sentinel of the Right and the others …
If it wasn't for the fact that he had some attainments in martial arts, he would have died eight or ten times over.
"From now on, I'll focus on cultivating the Immortal Dao and minor in the Martial Dao. I'll show off my Martial Dao to others and make them think that I'm just an ordinary martial artist … At the crucial moment, I'll directly control my sword to kill someone and explode in an instant, catching them off guard!"
"Right now, I'm already at the Great Circle of Qi Refinement. I can barely be considered a qualified beginner in the Immortal Dao. However, it's not enough to just have a cultivation level. Only by successfully cultivating the sword techniques of the Immortal Dao can I be considered to have stepped from a beginner into the Immortal Dao."
His heart stirred, and the sound of the system notification rang in his ears —
"Ding!"
[Consume 50000 Farm Points to cultivate the first style of Three Thousand Calamities, White Foal Crosses the Rift?]
"Cultivate!"
"Ding!"
[-50,000 Farm Points.]
"Congratulations host, you have successfully raised the first move of the [Three Thousand Calamities], 'White Foal Crosses the Rift' to the advanced stage."
Mysterious information flowed into his mind.
In an instant, Jiang He felt …
He had fully grasped 'White Foal Crosses the Rift'.
The reason he chose to cultivate 'White Foal Crosses the Rift' first was because Jiang He felt that he was lacking in single-target attacks at the moment … killing a novice Feral King Drake would take him over a dozen minutes …
"Now that I've cultivated 'White Foal Crosses the Rift' to Mastery, I could instakill trash like the Black King Drake with a single swing of my sword, achieving my goal of improving my ability by up to three times."
Jiang He nodded in satisfaction.
'White Foal Crosses the Rift' was now his most powerful single-target attack.
As for the AOE attack … he just had to cultivate 'Three Thousand Calamities' in the future. For now, he would use the pea bombs to make up for what he lacked.
Jiang He sighed when he glanced at the System Panel.
His Farm Points were really easy to spend. In just a dozen minutes, he was left with 12,000 Farm Points …
"I'll save them for now and not spend them. I'll just use them as a cover for my martial arts cultivation, and it's barely passable at rank-eight pinnacle … I'll improve in all aspects after I find a new way to earn Farm Points."
"Eh?"
Jiang He's gaze suddenly twitched at that thought.
Earning Farm Points …
Yuan and Yuanbao could no longer keep up with his farm level, but …
What about the Orirocks?
He had obtained 14 Orirocks from the Lin family and used up ten to level up his farm, leaving him with three …
He glanced at Dumbo, who understood and pointed a paw at the ground —
Ooom!
An earthen-yellow halation appeared over its body, surging to the tip of its paw and shooting at the ground.
On the ground.
The soil churned, instantly forming a small crater.
Dumbo's face was all smiles as it chuckled in its Sichuan-Xibei dialect, "Master, don't you think I'm awesome?"
Jiang He narrowed his eyes.
Shuddering in shock, Dumbo quickly tapped the ground with its paw and made three more craters.
Throwing four Orirocks into the craters precisely, Dumbo tapped the ground again, and the soil squirmed to fill the four craters. Then, it spat out a stream of water from its paw to water the craters.
Four Primordial Stones were planted in the soil.
Jiang He was a little envious at that …
The combination of earth-type and water-type superpowers was truly a powerful tool for farming. As the son of a farmer, Jiang He felt that he must come up with a way to awaken both superpowers.
"If I could really awaken earth-type and water-type superpowers, farming would be much easier …"
"It is said that there is a chance of awakening superpowers after consuming floral spirits. I'll ask Mu Wanqiu and Duan Tianhe later to see if the Superpower Research Department and the Martial Arts Department (MAD) have such floral spirits. If they don't, I'll have to post a thread on Warrior Home."
He glanced at the time.
It was almost midnight.
Jiang He returned to his mansion and took a bath before returning to his room. Changing into his silk pajamas, he found a cup and a plate and poured himself a cup of rank-nine Origin Fluid. Then, he simply rubbed a plate of purple-gold sunflower seeds and dried them with fire-type powers, beginning his dull and tasteless nightlife.
Both items were treasures that improved spirit, and Jiang He had a feeling that he was the only one on Earth who could be so extravagant.
Getting his laptop, Jiang He spent a lot of effort to open a webpage.
"Damn it!"
"Why is the internet so bad all of a sudden?"
A little speechless, Jiang He gave Duan Tianhe a call and had him ask around, only to learn that a nearby mobile signal tower had been destroyed by Ferals. Jiang He's house's internet was connected to that mobile signal tower.
As for fiber optics?
Jinyintan Village was covered in fiber optics before, but the poles that carried the fiber had now been uprooted by some Ferals who had nothing better to do.
"I can't bring my farm with me, so I'll have to stay in the village for now … not without internet."
Jiang He was a little upset.
He could still use his phone and make calls, but it lagged badly when he tried to go online.
"As for mobile phones, I heard that the military has developed a new satellite phone that has a signal network even deep in the mountains and forests. I'll get Commander Chen to get me a few after I'm done."
"Go online … contact the Martial Arts Department (MAD) and ask them to launch a satellite for me? Hmmm … that's a little embarrassing, but they could also get me a signal tower near my house. "
"Forget it, I'll just make do with the satellite phone's hotspot network. The internet speed wouldn't be bad, and I don't play large-scale games or watch weird movies."
As a martial artist …
No.
Since he cultivated both martial arts and immortal arts, it was not right to call him a martial artist — he should be a cultivator.
As a cultivator, being able to endure hardships was the most basic quality. After all, he had survived days of eating cucumbers and carrots every day, and all he had to do was turn on his phone's hotspot before going online, grit his teeth and persevere. It counted as a form of training for his martial arts heart.
Since he could not go online, Jiang He could only kill time by munching on purple-gold sunflower seeds.
When he felt thirsty while munching on the melon seeds, he would use the Rank-9 Origin Fluid to moisten his throat. It was not a bad idea.
Hence, the plate of purple-gold sunflower seeds slowly diminished. Jiang He felt a little sleepy and was about to sleep …
Ooom!
A unique ripple emanated from his body.
In that split second, the drowsiness that Jiang He had built up after much difficulty vanished without a trace …
"Hmmm?"
Extending his senses, Jiang He realized that his spirit seemed to have reached a certain threshold. Even his thoughts became much clearer, and an epiphany arose in his heart …
"My spirit has ascended?"
"Now, it could almost match the spirit of a divine-tier elite?"
What the hell!
Jiang He cursed, feeling a little helpless.
Of all times, he ascended when he was about to feel sleepy?
That left him invigorated and without a hint of drowsiness. How could he sleep?
"How could this be?"
Rising to his feet, Jiang He put on his clothes and stared blankly at the night sky outside the window, only to find that it was dotted with stars and a cool autumn breeze.
"Could it be that I couldn't sleep because I was worried about the Sky Demon Cult's next move? It was like that yesterday, falling asleep at daybreak and waking up before six in the evening … Hmmm … "
Withdrawing his gaze, Jiang He blinked.
He felt that he had realized the crux of his severe lack of sleep.
I slept for the entire day yesterday, so of course I couldn't sleep at night!
It was all caused by the reversal of day and night, and irregular living.
And the source of it all …
"The Sky Demon Cult!"
"If they didn't keep assassinating and ambushing me, leaving me in a constant state of panic, my biological clock wouldn't be messed up and day and night wouldn't be reversed. All I have to do is farm quietly, bathe at night, and sleep."
Killing intent flared in his heart.
Jiang He decided that he would attack the Sky Demon Cult on his own initiative after his trip to Tantra was over.
He definitely would not sit around and wait for his death!
"Since I can't sleep, I'll take a stroll around my farm. I wonder if my Orirocks have grown."
Jiang He headed downstairs.
His Mental Energy radiated outwards, ready to test how far his Mental Energy could extend after the breakthrough.
500 meters, 800 meters …
Soon, he reached his previous limit.
And yet, Jiang He did not feel any discomfort at all, and appeared very relaxed.
His spirit continued to radiate. 1,000 meters, 1,500 meters, 1,800 meters …
He had reached his limit.
"1,800 meters isn't even two kilometers … is a divine-tier spirit that weak?"
"Hmmm?"
Jiang He's eyes flashed suddenly.
His spirit …
He seemed to have noticed something.
At the same time.
In the spacious yard around 1,500 meters away from Jiang He's house, Three Blades Lin, who was snoring loudly in his sleep, abruptly opened his eyes …
