Jiang He did not mind the look on Unknown Fox's face, and smiled instead. "Unknown Fox, do you know the specific location of the Black Demon Star?"
Unknown Fox shook his head and said, "I have not been to the Sky Demon Star, my lord, but it is very famous and close to the Milky Way. It would not be difficult to find it as long as we find the right direction."
Phew!
Jiang He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "I'm relieved then. I was worried that the legion of the Hundred Races Alliance would return empty-handed."
Still, Jiang He ignored Dumbo, Trumbo, and the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers who were having fun on the moon.
There was no rush in finding trouble with the Hundred Races Alliance. The most pressing matter at hand was to plant immortal crystals.
Counting the time, the new batch of immortal crystals had probably ripened, and Jiang He promptly entered his farm in a flash.
Inside the farm, immortal crystals glimmering in immortal radiance were hanging on the crystalline immortal crystal tree. With a wave of Jiang He's hand, the immortal crystals detached themselves and flew towards him.
[Ding!]
[+ 10,000 Farm Points.]
[Ding!]
[+ 10,000 Farm Points.]
[Ding …]
System Notifications jingled incessantly in his head.
Soon, every immortal crystal in his farm had been plucked.
He glanced at his System Panel.
He had accumulated more than 200 billion Farm Points, and harvested a sea of immortal crystals.
After all, Jiang He had harvested a total of 510,000 immortal crystals this time.
Planting one immortal crystal would yield a hundred immortal crystals and a million Farm Points.
And now, Jiang He had planted over two hundred thousand immortal crystals.
"Hmmm …"
"In other words, I have around twenty million immortal crystals on me right now. That counts as a small fortune, doesn't it?"
After all, a Golden Immortal like the Ten Thousand Swords Daoist only had around five hundred thousand immortal crystals.
Of course.
Twenty million immortal crystals did not affect Jiang He's mentality at all.
Man is a very strange animal.
You would fantasize about being rich when you lacked money, but when you were truly rich to a certain extent, money really was just a number.
It was the same for Jiang He, immortal crystals.
It was fine if he could use them as seeds, but what use were they if they could not?
"Eh!"
"It's not that it's useless. I could use it to win people's hearts, or if push comes to shove, I could give it to Dumbo and the others for their cultivation … in fact, if I have the chance to go to the celestial battlefield, I could use these immortal crystals a second time."
"Using Immortal Crystals to collect Immortal Crystals, or I can use Immortal Crystals to buy Dharma treasures, plant and strengthen them, and then sell them. Wouldn't I be able to get as many Immortal Crystals as I want?"
Jiang He's eyes lit up at that thought.
This method …
Feasible!
After all, using Celestial Crystals to buy Celestial Crystals sounded like a pervert!
"Moreover, farming immortal crystals would definitely decrease once the farm levels up, but we could look for other things to earn Farm Points. As long as we have money, would we not have to worry about not being able to buy suitable treasures?"
Jiang He's mind became active then.
He summoned Dumbo and had it use its Earth-type powers to plant another batch of immortal crystals.
"Master, we're barbecuing outside. Do you want to join us later?"
Dumbo asked, and skipped away after Jiang He nodded.
The corner of Jiang He's mouth twitched as he watched the dog leave.
Barbecuing on the moon …
Only the two of you could come up with that.
Jiang He was about to leave his farm when a special aura suddenly arose behind him. He promptly turned to find that the nine Divine Sky-Mending Stones that had been silent for a long time were now shining with divine light.
Those nine Divine Sky-Mending Stones were the plants that had the longest growth cycle out of all the plants Jiang He had planted so far.
At first, they were shining with divine light, but their radiance faded as they grew. Moreover, they had grown so crooked that it would be ugly to dig them up and use them as fake mountains, which was why Jiang He did not pay attention to them.
Who would have thought that they would come back to life today?
That's right, they were alive!
Aside from the dazzling divine light, there seemed to be a faint aura of life slowly awakening within each of the nine Divine Sky-Mending Stones.
At first, those nine auras were so weak that even Jiang He could barely sense them. Even so, after ten minutes, they became stronger!
Kaboom!
The nine Divine Sky-Mending Stones shook endlessly and rumbled loudly. Though they were only ten feet tall, they gave off the feeling of majestic divine mountains trembling.
Abruptly, all nine Divine Sky-Mending Stones exploded at once. Nine streaks of divine light shot out from within, darting out of the farm with a whoosh and outside.
"What the hell!"
Jiang He cursed.
With his vision, he could naturally tell the essence of the nine streaks of divine light.
There were nine of them …
Baby monkeys!
They were neither too small nor too big, just half a meter tall.
They had just leapt out of the stones, but they were flying rapidly. Moreover, Jiang He could clearly sense the rapidly increasing auras over their bodies.
[Ding!]
[+ 100 million Farm Points.]
[Ding!]
[+ 100 million Farm Points.]
[Ding …]
Nine consecutive System Notifications jingled in Jiang He's head.
Ignoring everything else, Jiang He dashed out of his farm in a flash.
Meanwhile, aside from Dumbo, Trumbo, the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers, Unknown Fox, Hu Mei, Boa, and the other girls who were having a barbeque, all looked up into the skies in shock.
Up in the skies, the nine little monkeys were standing on thin air, thunderclouds gathering densely over their heads.
"Is that … the Four Lesser Heavenly Retributions of the Nine Nine?"
Jiang He's gaze twitched. Still, before the thunderclouds could fully form, the nine little monkeys tore them apart as if they were twigs.
At the same time, their auras rapidly ascended to Golden Pellet, True Child, Yuan Spirit, and Convergence-tier. Soon, thunderclouds rolled over the horizon again, and the nine little monkeys had ascended to Sufferance.
Daemonic Qi swirled over their bodies, and their half-meter tall bodies had now grown to 1.78 meters. All of them were baring their teeth at the thunderclouds, their ferocity in full display.
"Impressive!"
Jiang He came to his senses then, and could not help exclaiming, "Are those nine mongrels trying to become immortals in a single go?"
And it turned out that Jiang He was right.
The nine monkeys hence began to weather their retributions.
Still, there was a long gap between each thunderbolt, and Jiang He found it troublesome to wait. With a flick of his finger, a sword light tore through the nine thunderclouds.
Once the thunderbolts of retribution were broken, the nine monkeys' auras strengthened and rapidly reached full-fledged Sufferance before reaching Mahayana.
Around an hour later.
Boom!
A unique aura emanated from one of the monkeys' bodies.
An Immortal Dao rapidly condensed in its body, followed by a second, a third …
Soon, each of the nine monkeys had condensed an Immortal Dao and reached Heavenly Immortal-Novice.
At this moment, the nine monkeys shook their bodies and turned into nine youths, descending in unison.
They appeared to be around fifteen or sixteen years old and looked identical. All of them were clad in silver armor, and all of them knelt before Jiang He, greeting him loudly, "Master!"
"Good, good!"
Jiang He was all smiles as he ordered them to rise, but soon became worried.
Well …
They looked almost the same. How was he supposed to tell them apart?
Dumbo, Trumbo, Hu Mei, Boa, Sora, and the Seven Fairy Maidens whom Jiang He had planted were not surprised by the sight. Unknown Fox, however, was gaping as if he had seen a ghost and stammered, "My … my lord … are they … Wise Rock Monkeys?"
"What?"
Jiang He did a double take.
Wise Rock Monkeys?
It seemed that the Journey to the West had mentioned the Four Monkeys of Chaos.
And Sun Wukong was the Wise Rock Monkey?
There were also the Six-Eared Macaque, the Long-Armed Ape, and the Red-Bottomed Horseape, each of which had their own godly powers and were extremely mystical.
Remembering that the nine monkeys shared the same origins as Sun Wukong, Jiang He nodded after a blank look and said, "That's right. They are definitely the Wise Rock Monkeys."
"Impossible!"
Unknown Fox felt as if he was going mad and exclaimed in shock, "The Wise Rock Monkeys are spiritual beings born from heaven and earth and are immeasurably mystical. How could nine of them be born at once?"
