[Ding!]
[+ 100 Farm Points.]
[Ding …]
Jiang He plucked the remaining six bottle gourds and read them one by one —
[Second Brother]
[All-seeing, all-hearing, adept at scheming.]
[Usage: Blow to use.]
[Gentle reminder: Remember to charge before use. Method of charging: Sun.]
[Third Brother]
[Copper head, steel arms, steel bones, impervious to blades and spears.]
[Usage: Blow to use.]
[Gentle reminder: Remember to charge before use. Method of charging: Sun.]
[Fourth Brother]
"…"
"As I thought, these seven bottle gourds are the Seven Bottle Gourd Brothers. In other words, each bottle gourd seed of mine is equivalent to a rank-seven grandchild?"
"Bleh, bleh!"
"What grandchild?"
"They're more like tools … but come to think of it, this is similar to the puppets in fantasy novels. I just don't know how long it would take to charge and how long it would last."
Hence, Jiang He placed all seven bottle gourds under the sun.
One must say that the charging method of basking in the sun was very humane.
He turned his head and looked at the walnut tree.
It was fully grown, and there were walnuts hanging all over it. Each walnut was of normal size and did not appear special.
[Ding!]
[+ 10 Farm Points.]
Jiang He plucked one of the walnuts and focused on it —
[Walnut]
[Effect: Walnut meat is rich in protein, fat, and carbohydrates, as well as many other essential trace elements and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and iron. It has anti-aging and improves brain function.]
[Gentle reminder: Better effects when eaten with walnut skin.]
Jiang He: "???"
"Why does it feel like the System is getting more and more indecent?"
He fell into deep thought.
Anti-aging was easy to understand since it should extend lifespan, while enhancing brain function was clearly used to improve spirit, which was exactly what Jiang He needed.
Most importantly, what the heck was better effects when eaten with walnut skin?
"Can walnut skin really be eaten?"
Jiang He put the walnut in front of his nose and sniffed.
It was weird.
The plain-looking walnut actually smelled like a Dove hazelnut chocolate.
He took a bite.
It did not hurt as much as he imagined. Instead, it was crispy, and the skin melted in his mouth, thickening the Dove hazelnut chocolate flavor.
"This walnut skin is so fragrant!"
Jiang He sighed inwardly. Crunch, crunch. He ate the entire walnut, including the skin and the kernel.
He carefully experienced himself.
He could even feel that his "mental strength" had clearly increased by a tiny bit. Even the sea of swords in his mind was trembling slightly. The light sword floating in the sea of swords seemed to be slightly brighter than before.
Beside them, Dumbo and the Three-tails Demon Cat were gaping at them.
Master actually …
Eating walnuts like that?
He plucked all the walnuts from the tree.
There were 300 walnuts, earning Jiang He 3,000 Farm Points. It was a huge harvest!
Rumble!
Both the walnut tree and the bottle gourd vine dropped to the ground, reduced to black ash. Still, Jiang He did not even have to say a word — Dumbo had already volunteered to help, picking up a shovel and scattering the ashes.
Jiang He nonchalantly threw a cucumber at him.
On the other hand, Dumbo was quite loyal. It took the cucumber and gestured with its paw, eventually splitting it into two and handing one half to Trumbo with a pained heart.
Of course.
The cucumber he handed to Trumbo was about a tenth of its own.
Jiang He was speechless.
Be that as it may, Trumbo was now close to rank-four and the cucumber did not have much effect on it, so it did not matter if it ate a little.
"It's a shame that I've finished the qi pellets I planted before … I'll plant another tree later, and it would be perfect for grooming Dumbo and Trumbo while earning Farm Points."
Jiang He thought to himself, but his eyes were on the System panel.
[Name: Jiang He]
[Cultivation: Rank-Five Advanced]
[Ability: Royal Sword]
[Martial Arts Cultivation: Indestructible Diamond (Initiate +), Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms (+), Blind Princess's Eight Practices (First Practice +), Strengthened Nine Yang Technique (First Tier +)]
[Owned Land: 888m ²]
[Farm Level: 3 (EXP 100/5000)]
[System Backpack: 12 boxes]
[System Shop: Unlocked]
[Farm Points: 4,363]
"Oh?"
"I've already accumulated 4,363 Farm Points without me even knowing?"
"Still, it's not enough. My ability is still too weak right now, and I should earn more Farm Points to improve my ability."
With a thought, he touched the "+" behind the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art.
[Ding!]
[Consume 2,000 Farm Points to improve Indestructible Diamond up to Beginner?]
The System Notification jingled in his head, but Jiang He did not choose to confirm.
Then, he tried Blind Princess's Eight Practices.
Movement techniques were important.
He could run if he could not beat his opponent, chase if he could beat his opponent, and use movement techniques to circle his opponent to death when his ability was equal.
[Ding!]
[Consume 5,000 Farm Points to improve Blind Princess's Eight Practices to Second Practice?]
"…"
Jiang He's face promptly darkened.
5,000 Farm Points?
Why don't you just rob a bank?
Moreover, Blind Princess's Eight Practices was a mediocre-level martial art, and he needed 5,000 Farm Points to improve it. What about Strengthened Nine Yang Technique then?
He gave it a try.
As expected!
Ten thousand Farm Points were needed to improve the Strengthened Nine Yang Technique to the second tier!
"I'll put Strengthened Nine Yang Technique aside for now."
Jiang He set a short-term goal for himself.
Indestructible Diamond up to Beginner.
Second Practice of Blind Princess's Eight Practices.
He would learn a few more styles of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, get himself a mighty and imposing blade, and plant a cool blade technique.
"The first small goal could be achieved right now …"
Jiang He thought at that.
[Ding!]
[-2000 Farm Points.]
[Congratulations, Host. You have gained Beginner's Indestructible Diamond.]
In that split second, all Jiang He could feel was the sound of a thousand stampeding horses echoing inside his body. Soon, his flesh, skin, and bones were all strengthening rapidly.
Charging his True Qi, the silhouette of a golden bell materialized and covered his body.
He knocked it with his hand.
It was a solid, solid sound.
Phew ~ ~
Jiang He breathed a long sigh and muttered, "As I thought, only with a strong defense would I feel safe. Now that I've gained Beginner's Indestructible Diamond, I feel much more secure even when I sleep …"
"Next small goal, Second Practice of Blind Princess's Eight Practices!"
Jiang He glanced at his System Panel.
He only had 2,363 Farm Points left, and he needed over 2,600 points to reach Second Practice of Blind Princess's Eight Practices.
With a turn of his hand, three qi pellets appeared in his palm and he planted them.
Moreover, the ashes of the walnut tree and bottle gourd vines could not be left empty. Jiang He went to the entrance of the village and bought a bag of pepper seeds to plant.
