Western Region, Sand Continent border.
Inside the fort.
Hong Yi and the rest finally used the All Saints Palace to return to the Vast Thousand World. Along the way, no one stopped them.
Back at the Western Region Sand Continent border, Hong Yi hurried to a fort because Mu The Younger and the rest were cultivating inside. Mu The Younger kept the Taisha Rainbow God Streamer and broke through to the Ghost Immortal Realm, but his foundation was still not stable. He needed to accumulate, so he stayed in the Sand Continent to cultivate.
…
"Mu The Younger, how's your cultivation? And Jin Xuner, Xiao Shu, Xiao Sang, Xiao Fei, how's your cultivation? "
In the fort, Hong Yi walked in and saw Arachnida Gigantea crawling on the ground in a square shape. She was breathing, and two blue fangs stretched out, but they did not look ferocious at all. They looked like two cute little tiger fangs.
Seeing Hong Yi walk in, Arachnida Gigantea cheered and jumped onto Hong Yi's shoulder, standing up shakily. Then, her soul came out of her body and turned into a little girl.
Xiao Shu, Xiao Sang, and Xiao Fei, the three little foxes, who were cultivating, stopped and let their souls out.
The three little foxes were all dressed in pure white dresses, like the daughters of a rich family. They were elegant and quiet, with a scholarly air. They were worthy of being called spirit fox beauties. They were exactly the same as the fox girls in the supernatural novels.
"Brother Yi, our soul power is now extremely strong, and we are also working hard to understand the Ghost Immortal Barrier. It's just that we feel that we don't have enough accumulation."
Xiao Shu said quietly.
"I'm just a little bit away. I'm much stronger than them." Arachnida Gigantea bared her fangs and brandished her claws. At the same time, she patted Hong Yi's shoulder with her chubby little hand and shook her butt.
"Well, Jin Xuner, you were about to break through to the Ghost Immortal Realm a long time ago, but you haven't broken through yet. That's also because you haven't accumulated enough temperament. This time, you'll come to my All Saints Palace to study and help with farming. You'll have to do some manual labor to accumulate more temperament."
Hong Yi looked at the five girls and smiled. The All Saints Hall appeared in his hand, and a stream of light flew out, sucking all five of them in.
Then, Hong Yi waved his hand, and the Enduring Monk, Chi Zhuiyang, Shen Tianyang, and Shen Tiezhu also entered the All Saints Hall. The vast world, the magnificent palace, and the majestic dragon pillars with the majesty of divine beasts appeared in front of everyone.
"Hong Yi! Your dao technique! It was so powerful just now! " The Enduring Monk said in horror, "I was meditating just now, circulating my Qi and blood, and adjusting my spirit. This is the moment when my spirit is at its most sensitive and most powerful. No Dao technique can invade it, but Hong Yi, you sneaked in without a sound and used your mana to capture me! I didn't even have the slightest ability to resist! This … this, just how powerful are you? Heavens, you used a transportation dao technique to capture a Wu Sheng, and a Wu Sheng who is close to his peak … "
"It's just that after I cultivated the 10 Dharmic Seals of the Buddha's Palm, my soul strength has become stronger, and I have also merged with the Pan Huang Life Spirit Sword. Now, I am only a step away from becoming a Creator. Capturing Wu Sheng is not impossible. The 10 Dharmic Seals of the Buddha's Palm originally belonged to the Daizen Temple. Now, I'm handing them over to you. You can use them to revive the Daizen Temple in the future! "
Hong Yi waved his hand, and a golden page flew out from the bookshelf in the hall and landed in the Enduring Monk's hand. It was the General Principles of the Present Rulai Sutra.
This originally belonged to the Daizen Temple, so it was only natural for it to be handed over to the Enduring Monk.
The surrounding people, including Yun Xiangxiang and the others, all had different expressions when they saw Hong Yi hand over such a peerless secret manual. But they all had a strong sense of trust in him. Although the Dragon Girl and the others wanted to witness this strength, they all retracted their hearts.
"Okay, let's plant the Dragontooth Rice together. There are thousands of seeds here and each one is really precious. Moreover, if we plant them in the large world, it might be leaked. Only by opening up farmland in the All Saints Hall can we plant them! "
Xie Wenyuan said solemnly.
Everyone's eyes shot towards the Dragontooth Rice seeds within the Yuan Ice Cube.
At this moment, the Essence Ice Cube had been opened by Hong Yi using the Jambu Formation. Although Essence Ice was stronger than steel, how could it block a high level dao technique?
With a wave of his hand, a three chi and three centimeters long sword-like piece of rice fell into Hong Yi's hand.
This rice was really heavy. Although it was white and crystal clear, it wasn't naked rice. It was wrapped in an ivory-like outer shell. Layers of tree-ring patterns were on the outer shell.
Inside the outer shell was pure white rice without any impurities. It was the pure essence of the rice.
"This is, Dragontooth Rice?" Enduring Monk was shocked once more. After keeping the Present Rulai Scripture, he rubbed his eyes. It was obvious that he recalled the ancient records.
"Enduring Monk, you have already cultivated to a really high realm. But even with the Present Rulai Scripture, it will be tough for you to reach Human Celestial. This is a problem with your body. Although the food you eat every day is exquisite, compared to Wu Sheng, it is too rough. After absorbing the nutrients your body needs, your stomach needs large amounts of essence energy to wash the impurities in the food to keep your body clean. That will waste essence blood. " Hong Yi said, "But after we plant the Dragontooth Rice, eating it won't be that taboo. You don't need to fast every few days. Even my body will be able to replenish energy and reach Human Celestial Realm."
Wu Sheng needed to fast often to clear out the impurities in his body. When one reached Wu Sheng's realm, one had to choose their food carefully. Just like Monk Yin Yue's description of the Sun Devouring One Elephant, once every four hours, there was no other way around it.
...
"To plant the Dragontooth Rice, we can't use normal soil. First, we need to refine the Five-Colored Soil and then water it with Jade Spring Water! At the same time, you also need to control lightning and life energy, and coordinate with the essence of the sun and moon at all times … "Xie Wenyuan took out some of the tortoiseshell books that contained planting methods and translated the ancient characters on them into the current style. Then, he said," The formula for the Five-Colored Soil is recorded in the book, and the formula for the Jade Spring Water is also recorded. As for controlling the Lightning Energy, Celestial Capital Jade Huang can do that. We don't have any problems. I heard that when the ancient Sky Dragon Race planted the Dragontooth Rice, they captured many Lightning Tribulation Ghost Immortals to help them farm … "
"Okay, then let's refine the Five-Colored Soil and Jade Spring Water to plant the Dragontooth Rice."
Hong Yi also took the tortoiseshell books and read through them. He grasped some of the important points. Although some of the things were complicated, for someone like him who had accumulated a lot of experience, it wasn't a problem.
A month passed by in a row …
Hong Yi and the other experts were all in the All Saint Hall, refining the Five-Colored Soil and Jade Spring Water. Hong Yi often used his clone to use the Celestial Capital Jade Huang to absorb the Lightning True Qi.
Refining the Five-Colored Soil required many materials but Xie Wenyuan, Yun Xiangxiang, Dragon Girl, and the others were all experts with rich collections. Naturally, they didn't lack any herbs and they took them out when refining.
Under the joint efforts of the few experts, a small space was added to the All Saints Palace in a month's time.
In this space, a giant red ball hung in the sky. It was a Fire Pellet, similar to a small sun. On the ground, there was a plot of land with a circumference of ten mu.
The soil in the field was of five different colors, and a fresh, earthy fragrance wafted out. Beside the field was a small pond. The water in the pond was really sticky like a 10,000-year-old stalactite or like the liquid of melted jade.
Many pieces of Dragontooth Rice were stuck in the field and it was like a sword tomb.
Chan Yinsha used the Celestial Capital Jade Huang in the sky and used a technique. Dark clouds rumbled and lightning brewed within. Life energy spread out from the lightning.
At this moment, Chan Yinsha was like an ancient god that controlled lightning. He controlled the clouds and rain, causing all things to grow.
In a month, Chan Yinsha was much better at controlling lightning. Planting Dragontooth Rice allowed her to gain much experience. Mu The Younger and the others were busy in the field, taking care of the Dragontooth Rice. They were trying to understand the mysteries within. Although they couldn't increase the strength of their techniques, it was a huge accumulation for their souls.
One could see that after the Dragontooth Rice was planted and harvested, the person taking care of it would gain huge rewards. The three little foxes and Arachnida Gigantea might even be able to break through the Ghost Celestial Realm.
Ninja Monk was all smiles. He carried a small jade hoe and poked around in the field. It was as if his heart was connected to the seeds in the ground.
"I've planted a total of more than nine hundred of them. I reckon they'll take root and sprout soon. You left 100 seeds. I really want to have a taste of this Dragontooth Rice. "
Looking at how all the Dragontooth Rice was planted according to the ancient method, Ao Luan felt tempted. The grain of the Ancient Sky Dragon was really tempting to her half human half dragon body.
"Let's talk about it after it is planted. If we can't plant it, each one of these 100 seeds is really precious. "Xie Wenyuan said. He then looked at Hong Yi," We have to talk about the four family heads. "
"Eh, but Majestic God King seems to be looking for me. It seems like Ji Xiang still hasn't refined the Origin Qi Relic. " In the center of the hall, a chaos giant egg was still spinning. Jixiang Tian's talisman was stuck to it but the Mixed Heaven Essence Energy Relic didn't decrease. It was like there was no end to it. Who knew when Jixiang Tian would be able to refine it?
But it was just a matter of time. While speaking, Hong Yi's body moved and he exited the All Saint Hall. He came to a bright hall.
In the hall, Majestic God King Yang Tuo was drinking tea like he was waiting for Hong Yi.
Seeing Hong Yi suddenly appear, Yang Tuo was not surprised. He only said, "Hong Yi, you are getting more and more powerful. For the past month, you have been at the borders refining magic treasures and cultivating dao techniques. Do you know that something big has happened in the imperial court? Also, some of my wife's herbs and pill recipes have been prepared. It is time to start refining the Earth Essence Spirit Pill and Human Essence Pill. "
"Wang Ye's body is at the peak of Wu Sheng. Unfortunately, there aren't any celestial treasures for him to eat, which is why he is in a rush to refine pills for his main food." When Hong Yi heard Yang Tuo say that, he thought back to how Concubine Xie Pianpian and he had worked together to refine pills.
"Of course, but I am curious. What do you eat every day? Is it the Lantian Silver Grain Rice left by Daizen Temple? "Majestic God King Yang Tuo said.
Hong Yi's All Saint Hall did store the rice left by Daizen Temple. It was called Lantian Silver Grain Rice. The rice grains were long and there were thin silver lines on it. It was also an ancient variant but it was 100 times weaker than the Dragontooth Rice.
"Wang Ye seems to know a lot about me." Hong Yi smiled. He knew that Yang Tuo knew that he had stored the rice in the warehouse but he didn't care.
"There is no rush to refine pills. What happened in the dynasty?" Hong Yi asked.
"Three huge matters!" Yang Tuo's expression was solemn and he raised three fingers, "First, the Emperor ordered the various Governors to measure the land of the country. Second, he ordered the various Governors to check the population of Da Qian. This time, even the aristocratic families have to be checked to the end. The third was a big case. The Chen family of Chi Province was involved in the case of Third Prince Zhou's rebellion. Now the Art Saint of the Chen family, Qian Daozi Chen Zimo, had been captured and brought to the capital. The Chen family was also raided by the army from the capital. Even Chi Zhou Governor Nie Yuangai doesn't know about it. "
"These three matters are no small matter!" When Hong Yi heard this, he knew that a storm was brewing. He didn't expect that the Da Qian Royal Family would act so quickly.
"Measuring the land of the country and checking the population may not be so easy. I've also paid attention to the country's population records in the Ministry of Revenue. It's recorded that there are one billion people in the country, but this number is actually from the time when the country was founded. It's far more than this number. The slightly larger aristocratic families keep servants. The servants give birth to sons, and the servants give birth to sons. The slightly larger hundred-year-old families have hundreds of servants. Not to mention the first-rate aristocratic families, they have tens of thousands of servants, secret guards, and martial masters! These will not be reported, and there is no need to pay a poll tax. They will not let the court have the records. This is a muddled account, and no dynasty has been able to figure it out. "
Hong Yi said. He naturally had a clear grasp of the people's livelihood in Da Qian.
The Marquis Wu Wen Residence had a population of seven hundred, but that was twenty years ago. Now, some of the servants had sons, and the sons had grown up. However, they did not marry into the family. They were born to the Marquis Residence, and when they die, they are ghosts of the Marquis Residence. They had developed to one or two thousand people. This was also something that Hong Yi knew.
During the imperial examination, some aristocratic families' disciples came to the capital with hundreds of servants. This was also a fact.
The one billion recorded in the Da Qian Household Register. If they really did a thorough check, it would not be a problem to double the number.
"This is just the beginning. They are just using this time's census to clean up some of the smaller families. In any case, I think the court is very determined this time. They have sent a few princes to the various provinces to supervise! Prince Yu, Prince He, the Crown Prince, and a few other dukes. "
Yang Tuo continued.
