Chapter 1799: Subdued
After a commotion, everyone gradually dispersed.
Duan Tianliang was once again in the limelight among the many medicinal farmers and stewards. He could not help but blush and gloat internally.
However, he calmed down quickly.
That was because he knew that although he was the one who planted the immortal herb seeds, the fact that they grew overnight should have nothing to do with him.
It was as though the Essence Qi gathered in the 13 Mu of spirit fields had suddenly turned richer overnight, allowing the two immortal herbs to grow rapidly!
“Strange,”
Duan Tianliang rubbed his chin in confusion.
There was no way he could link it to Su Zimo.
Even Earth Immortals and Heaven Immortals could not do such a thing, let alone someone who had just ascended from the lower world.
Duan Tianliang decided to continue guarding here to check things out.
At the same time, Su Zimo sensed what was happening outside and gradually understood.
The Creation Green Lotus was an utmost treasure that stole the creation of Heaven and Earth.
His Green Lotus True Body was already at an extremely high level after advancing to Grade 9 and it was nothing much for him to absorb Heaven and Earth Essence Qi!
If Su Zimo wanted to, he could absorb and refine the lifeforce essence of all the immortal herbs within 5 kilometers!
The Creation Green Lotus was the supreme of plants!
Of course, with that, all the immortal herbs within five kilometers would wither.
It was daytime and there were many medicinal farmers coming and going. Out of caution, Su Zimo did not cultivate and absorb Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.
Although Heaven and Earth Essence Qi was invisible, once he cultivated, the Essence Qi in the surrounding 13 Mu of spirit fields would increase exponentially. It would be much richer than outside and would be easily sensed by others.
This matter concerned the Creation Green Lotus and must not be casually exposed.
The fewer people who knew, the better!
Of course, Su Zimo was not idle either. Instead, he continued comprehending the contents of the Prajna Nirvana Sutra.
There were not many Sanskrit words etched on the walls of the tripod. However, every single word seemed to contain a mysterious truth!
Before long, night descended.
The surrounding medicinal farmers had already dispersed.
Duan Tianliang was the only one lingering around the spirit field.
For the entire day, Duan Tianliang had been staring at the spirit field. In the end, he could not gain anything nor did he find anything unusual. He could not help but feel disappointed.
However, after thinking about it, he was still indignant and moved a bamboo chair to sit in the spirit field.
When Su Zimo sensed this in the straw hut, he pondered for a moment and decided to start cultivating, absorbing Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.
It was impossible to hide this from everyone.
Furthermore, from the looks of it, Duan Tianliang was clearly prepared to guard this spirit field at all times.
It was impossible for Su Zimo to not cultivate just because Duan Tianliang was guarding here.
He could control a mere Duan Tianliang!
…
Duan Tianliang leaned against the bamboo chair. Initially, he was a little energetic.
However, he looked up at the skies and listened to the sounds of frogs and crickets. Gradually, his gaze turned blurry and he fell asleep.
Duan Tianliang had been thinking about this matter the entire time.
Even if he fell asleep, he would not feel at ease.
Suddenly, Duan Tianliang jolted awake!
It was already late at night.
Duan Tianliang suddenly felt that something was amiss!
The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi around him turned extremely rich!
Duan Tianliang’s eyes widened and he was invigorated instantly.
He could not believe it and thought that it was his imagination. He even ran far away from the radius of the surrounding 13 Mu of spirit fields.
The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi elsewhere was still extremely thin.
The Essence Qi was only shockingly rich in the area of these 13 Mu of spirit fields!
Duan Tianliang looked at the two immortal herbs in the spirit fields.
In just a few hours, the sprouts of the two immortal herbs seemed to have grown taller!
“How could this be?”
Duan Tianliang’s eyes flickered with a bewildered expression.
After pondering for a moment, he raised his head and looked at the ordinary straw hut in the middle of the spirit fields!
“Could it be…”
He thought of a possibility.
It was truly a ridiculous a.s.sumption.
He had lived in Snow Wind Ridge for 10,000 years.
Such a strange situation had never happened before. However, it only happened after that person ascended!
In other words, there was a high chance that this matter was related to that person!
“This is a huge matter!”
Duan Tianliang s.h.i.+fted his gaze and was prepared to report this matter to the Territorial Lord of Snow Wind Ridge through the night!
He had just turned around when he nearly b.u.mped into someone!
Duan Tianliang took two steps back instinctively and was about to curse.
However, when he saw that person, he could not help but be scared out of his wits. He swallowed the curse words that he was about to say!
“B-B-Boss Su! Why are you out so late at night without a single peep of sound! You scared me!”
Duan Tianliang’s voice was trembling.
“Cultivating here will only benefit you,”
Su Zimo said slowly.
Those were not lies!
Cultivating in such an environment with rich Essence Qi would make every day equivalent to a hundred days!
“However…”
Su Zimo changed the topic. “There are some things that you should keep to yourself and not tell anyone.”
“Definitely, definitely!”
Duan Tianliang said hurriedly, “Boss Su, don’t worry. My lips are the tightest!”
Actually, Duan Tianliang was already planning to report this matter the moment he left this place alive!
Su Zimo did not say much. He looked at Duan Tianliang deeply before turning to walk towards the straw hut.
Duan Tianliang sneered and was about to leave.
For some unknown reason, his heart skipped a beat and he released his spirit consciousness to circle around Su Zimo.
Psst!
Duan Tianliang could not help but gasp when he checked!
Level 3 Black Essence realm!
At that moment, Duan Tianliang’s pupils constricted and his hairs stood on end!
A day ago, this person was only a Grade 2 Black Immortal.
In just a day, that person was already a Grade 3 Black Immortal!
What sort of cultivation speed was that?
Could this person be the reincarnation of an Exalted Immortal?
Duan Tianliang was shocked and fearful.
Initially, he truly intended to report this matter.
But now, he could not help but shudder when he recalled the deep gaze Su Zimo gave him before leaving.
“No!”
Duan Tianliang was secretly alarmed. “My every move has long been watched by this person! If I leave now, I’ll probably die here!”
At that thought, Duan Tianliang let out a long breath and returned to the spirit field obediently.
No matter what, such a cultivation environment was indeed rare and this matter was a combination of fortune and misfortune.
With that thought, Duan Tianliang started cultivating!
In just a single night, his cultivation had advanced significantly!
The immortal herbs in the spirit field grew rapidly and news of this spread quickly among the medicinal farmers of Snow Wind Ridge, causing everyone to click their tongues in wonder.
However, it was only 13 Mu of spirit fields and did not attract much attention from Snow Wind Ridge.
In the blink of an eye, a year pa.s.sed.
Duan Tianliang watched as the immortal herbs in the spirit field grew faster and faster.
The immortal herbs that were supposed to ripen in a hundred years were about to ripen in a short year!
This matter finally attracted the attention of some Black Immortals in Snow Wind Ridge!
