Qin Di stared at the map for a while and asked, "Old mister, I see that there are still a lot of rank one spiritual fields left in the corners. These spiritual fields seem to be unmanaged. Are they just barren?"
The old man replied, "It's not completely barren. Every spring, some odd-job disciples will go over and plant some low-level spiritual grass seeds. After planting them, they don't care about them anymore. They wait until autumn to harvest as much as they can. These are all missions issued by the sect to ensure an unlimited supply of low-level spiritual grass. "
"Why doesn't anyone want the spiritual fields in the corners? Is it because of the distance or because of something else? "
The old man patiently explained, "The entire Red Fire Continent is very safe. The demonic beasts are all enclosed and there are no foreign invasions. It's because of the distance. The Red Fire Continent is a large island, shaped like an olive, three thousand six hundred li long and two thousand li wide. We are almost close to the center of the island, slightly to the southeast. From here to the south, we are only eight hundred li away from the sea. If we go north, it's 1,200 kilometers to the holy land of spiritual fish, the Thousand Feet Rock. It's farther to the west, about 2,000 kilometers. To the east, it's 1,600 kilometers. It's so far away, and those renting the rank one spiritual fields are all low-level outer disciples. It's very inconvenient to travel, so no one goes there. "
"What if we use the Flight Talisman? It won't take more than an hour to travel a thousand kilometers. "
The old man smiled and said, "The Flight Talisman also has a lifespan. Generally speaking, low-level Flight Talismans can only be used a hundred times at most, and each flight costs spirit stones. Although it doesn't cost much, it's still a huge expense over time. It's not easy for outer disciples to accumulate spirit stones. Who would be willing to spend it on this?"
Qin Di thought, "I can still afford this bit of spirit stones." He then asked, "Old mister, if I rent a place at the edge of the island, other than the Thousand Feet Rock, will there be other places where I can catch spiritual fish? The surrounding area is the Tongtian River, and the spiritual fish should be wandering around, not just the Thousand Feet Rock, right? "
The old man shook his head slowly and said, "You can fish anywhere. However, the high-level spiritual fish in the sea are hidden in the relatively deep water. The Thousand Feet Rock is straight up and down, and you can reach deep water with a swing of the hook. It's very convenient for fishing. The water on the other shores was relatively shallow. If one wanted to catch a big fish, they would have to go deep into the water. Don't forget, once a person enters the water, it's not easy to stand firm. Fishing for Spiritual Fish was also dangerous. People were more vulnerable in the water. Because of this, people have chosen to go fishing at the Hundred Feet Cliff. No one goes anywhere else. "
Qin Di nodded. "Thank you for your guidance. I want to rent a place in the south. This spiritual field doesn't look small. "As he spoke, he pointed at the map.
The old man looked at it and asked, "You mean Golden Spear Horn?"
Qin Di was a little surprised. "What did you say? This place is called Golden Spear Point? So this area is Golden Spear Bay, right? "
He suddenly remembered a book of miscellaneous notes that mentioned Golden Spear Point and Golden Spear Bay, as well as a related story.
"Yes, this is called the Golden Spear Point. Look at this pointed peninsula, twenty li into the sea. Doesn't it look like a golden spear?"
However, Qin Di knew that the Golden Spear Point was not named because it looked like a spear, but because it came from a kind of spiritual fish. He read a description in a very old book that said that three thousand years ago, someone caught a fourth-rank Golden Spear Spirit Fish there. At that time, it caused a great sensation, because third-rank spiritual fish were treasures that the late stage of Foundation Establishment and even the early stage of Gold Core dreamed of. If there was a fourth-rank spiritual fish, it would attract the crazy pursuit of the late stage of Gold Core, and even alarm the great cultivators in the early stage of Nascent Soul. These spiritual fish could strengthen the body, which was of great benefit to resisting the heavenly tribulation.
"What's the terrain of the nearby seaside?"
The old man thought for a moment and said, "There are some low cliffs on the seaside here. Some people have tried fishing there, but I haven't heard of anyone catching it. Not to mention second-rank spiritual fish, not even first-rank spiritual fish."
Speaking of this, the old man smiled. "Young man, do you want to rent a spiritual field? Or do you want to fish? If you want to rent a spiritual field, this land is too big. I'm afraid you can't take it. The rent for a year is not a small amount. "
Qin Di asked, "How big is this land? How many points do you need? "
"Starting from the top of the peninsula, this spiritual field is more than ten thousand mu. Even if it's ten thousand mu, the rent for a year is one hundred thousand points. Hehe, young man, I didn't scare you, did I? "
Qin Di didn't reply, but lowered his head and continued to look at the map. After a while, he asked, "Old mister, I'm still a little worried. Is there an enemy invasion in Golden Spear Corner?"
The old man laughed and said, "Don't worry. Young man, don't worry about it. Our Red Fire Continent is very safe. There is a great formation outside. For ten thousand years, no enemy has attacked the island. Our battles with other sects are limited to the islands outside. If you go to the outer sea to guard the island, you have to be careful. In the Red Fire Continent, there is absolutely no problem! "
Qin Di said, "That's good. I want to rent this land. Can I rent it for five years first?"
The old man was surprised and said, "The annual rent for a first-rank spiritual field is one point per mu. Ten thousand mu for five years will cost fifty thousand points! Young man, you are only a second-layer Qi Refining disciple, do you have that many points? "
"Can I pay spirit stones in exchange?"
"Yes, one spirit stone for one hundred points. This is the price set by the sect for many years."
"What if I want to renew the contract in the future? Do I have the priority to renew the contract? Will it be snatched away by someone else after I worked so hard to modify it for five years? "
"Priority to renew the contract? You have to have that! This is also a rule left by the ancestors of the sect, a tradition that has been maintained for tens of thousands of years. As long as you have the lease and enough points to renew the contract, others can't invade it. No matter where this lawsuit goes, even if a Nascent Soul Perfected Lord is invited, you will still win. "
"Then I'm relieved. I'll pay five hundred spirit stones for five years first. I'll renew the contract when I have more points in the future. "As he said that, he poured out a small pile of spirit stones from his storage bag.
The old man was very surprised. His narrowed eyes unconsciously widened and his chubby cheeks trembled slightly. He sighed and said, "Not simple! Young man, if you didn't have the support of your ancestors, you would be too amazing to earn these spirit stones by yourself! To be honest, I rarely see people do this. Even inner sect disciples and some elite disciples can't take out so many spirit stones, let alone a second-layer Qi Refining outer sect disciple like you. "
Qin Di blinked and said with a smile, "Hehe, I dug these spirit stones out from the ground. I worked hard for many days."
