9 Chapter 9: Spirit Rice Ripens
Translator: 549690339
Xu Fan, who was harvesting spirit rice, smiled brightly. He controlled the sickle with his spiritual power, and it didn’t take much time to finish harvesting the ten or more acres of spirit rice.
Spreading the spirit rice on an empty space, Xu Fan directly casted 4-5 Sunlight Skills in the air to ensure that the spirit rice had enough sunlight.
Then, it was time for husking and separating the grains. Finally, Xu Fan looked at the more than 1,200 kilograms of spiritual rice and smiled contentedly.
“Not easy, ah, it takes a year to mature, and the yield per acre is less than 100 kilograms. But that should be enough.”
Xu Fan casually took a bag of 10-kilogram spiritual rice and placed it in the kitchen.
“No matter how expensive, I have to try it. Red-braised pork with rice tonight, that delicious taste~~.” Xu Fan indulged in saying that. He had tasted it when the spirit rice was harvested last season, and he almost didn’t sell it after trying.
At this moment, pleasant bells rang within the Restriction.
“What a dog’s nose.” Xu Fan frowned slightly. The kid definitely arrived just in time.
“Brother Xu, look what I brought.”
Wang Yunlun came over with a Pear Blossom Pig at the Qi refining second layer.
“Didn’t Brother Xu say last time that the best meat for steaming spiritual rice is spiritual pig meat?”
“I bought it specifically from the Beast Taming Hall.”
Looking at the Pear Blossom Pig in Wang Yulun’s hand, Xu Fan’s smile appeared, and he said that widely-known sentence.
“Since you are already here, just bring something.”
Xu Fan smiled and took the Pear Blossom Pig from Wang Yulun’s hand, controlled it with spiritual power, killed the pig, bled it, and cut the meat.
His smooth movements left Wang Yulun dumbfounded.
Two hours later, the two happily finished eating the spiritual rice red-braised pork rice.
“Brother Xu, you were right, red-braised pork with spiritual rice is indeed a perfect match.” Wang Yulun said with an enchanted look on his face.
“I knew that you had been thinking about my spiritual rice.”
“Hehe, isn’t it just wanting to follow Brother Xu and eat something good?” Wang Yulun said with a grin.
“How’s your A-Class Hall task going?” Xu Fan casually asked. The last time the kid had trained here, he felt that his combat power had soared and directly took on the Battle Hall’s A-Class Hall task, causing a sensation in the entire Heavenly Sect’s Outer Sect.
“I’ve killed three demon beasts at the 7th Level of Qi Cultivation so far, and there are seven more to complete the task.” Wang Yulun said with a smile.
“Don’t be careless, I know that the A-Class Hall tasks get harder and harder.”
“I heard that the last beast at the 7th Level of Qi Cultivation has a strength comparable to the 8th Level of Qi Training.” Xu Fan said with a slightly serious expression, as this task involved the risk of death.
“Have you considered going to the high layer of Qi refining before challenging it? At least you’ll have the support of artifacts and it’ll be a bit easier.”
“I know Brother Xu is trying to help, but the sooner I enter the A-Class Hall, the more benefits I can get.”
“Entering the A-Class Hall will give you a chance to enter the Thunder Element Secret Realm, a good opportunity to cleanse the marrow, temper your spirit, rebuild your talent. If you’re lucky, you might even obtain a spirit body.”
“The lower the realm, the greater the effect.”
“Entering at the 4th level of Qi is an excellent opportunity.”
Xu Fan looked at Wang Yulun’s determined eyes and sighed.
“Who cares about your well-being? I have to say that at your current strength, you definitely can’t pass the last few trials.” Xu Fan laughed and scolded.contemporary romance
“Hehe, didn’t I come to Brother Xu for special training?” Wang Yulun flattered.
“With your combat talent, if you want to reach the 4th level of Qi, you’ll have to go through a battle of life and death. It’s hard to make a breakthrough otherwise.” Xu Fan shook his head and said.
He could see that Wang Yulun’s combat talent had already been developed to its limit. If he wanted to break through, he would have to experience a desperate situation.
“I know, so I want to see if Brother Xu has any tricks, and I want to beg Brother Xu for some guidance to see how far my strength is from Brother Xu’s.”
Xu Fan looked at Wang Yulun with the eyes of someone staring at a fool, thinking, “You want to compete with me? I have a million ways to stop you from even making a move.”
“Are you sure you can even get a chance to take a shot if you want to compete with me?” Xu Fan asked casually. Although he had never fought demons outside the sect, he had a clear understanding of his own strength.
Beating ten Wang Yuluns would be a piece of cake.
“Um, what I meant was, let’s have a fair and square competition using only attack and kill Techniques.”
“Fine, let me show you what the limit of a Qi Cultivation 4th level’s combat power looks like.”
Xu Fan spoke and pointed his two fingers like a sword at Wang Yulun’s Sun-point.
Heaven and Earth changed, and both of them appeared in a competition arena with a thousand-meter diameter.
The two were a hundred meters apart, but Xu Fan’s voice still reached Wang Yulun’s ears clearly.
“I’ll only use the sect’s standard techniques, use whatever methods you want.”
“Alright, Brother Xu, I won’t hold back then. Let me see your true strength.”
Wang Yulun activated the Light Feather Wind Technique, transforming into an afterimage and charged towards Xu Fan.
A wooden spear engulfed in raging flames shot at Xu Fan from a tricky angle, completely sealing off the surrounding space.
“This angle proves that you aced your technique prediction.”
Xu Fan smiled and took a small step back and to the left, just avoiding the Fire Spear Technique.
“It’s not over yet!”
Wang Yulun appeared behind Xu Fan, a golden fist aimed at Xu Fan’s head.
“Brother Xu, you underestimated me.”
Just as Wang Yulun thought he was about to win, Xu Fan’s figure slowly disappeared, leaving behind a frost-covered trap that ensnared Wang Yulun.
An extreme cold air instantly froze Wang Yulun, and a most ordinary Fireball Technique hit him squarely. The battle was over.
Back in the real world, Wang Yulun looked at Xu Fan in shock, feeling as though he had just discovered a whole new world.
“Brother Xu, what trick is this?” Ignoring the piercing pain in his head, Wang Yulun eagerly asked.
“It’s just a simple Light and Shadow Technique, a Cold Ice Trap, plus a Fireball Technique.”
“That’s it, that simple.”
“This kind of method easily deceives people like you who can’t think outside the box. Works every time.” Xu Fan shrugged and replied with a smile.
“Brother Xu, can you teach me?” At this moment, Wang Yulun’s eyes were fixed on Xu Fan.
“Sure, sure. 1,000 Spirit Stones for a beginner course, 10,000 for an intermediate course, and 100,000 for a lifelong course.”
“As long as you have the Spirit Stones, I can teach you every day, no problem.” Xu Fan squinted his eyes and spoke. Taking advantage of others was too much, and friendship alone couldn’t fill his belly.
“1,000 Spirit Stones!”
“Brother Xu, can you make it a little cheaper? I only have 600 Spirit Stones on me, and that’s what my dad gave me for the apprenticeship gift.” Wang Yulun said with a sad face.
Damn, this kid actually has 600 Spirit Stones. He’s definitely from a well-off family.
“You can pay in installments, but give me 500 Spirit Stones first.”
Xu Fan held out his hand, seemingly with the thought that once he got the 500 Spirit Stones, his initial plan could be significantly shortened.
“Brother Xu, can you leave me some? How about I give you 300 Spirit Stones first?” Wang Yulun bargained.
A flash of light shot out from Xu Fan’s hand, and a way out appeared in the Restriction.
“Take care, no need for a send-off.” Xu Fan snorted coldly, not accepting to haggle on his exclusive business.
