As soon as he stepped into the spiritual field, there was a strong spiritual energy coming from him, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The spiritual energy in the inner city is already three-thirds richer than that in the outer city, and the concentration here is much higher, at least twice that of the outside world.
If you can practice in a place like this for a long time, your cultivation speed will definitely be faster.
Unfortunately, I can only stay for five days this time.
After gathering his thoughts, Xu Wen raised the sickle, which was as tall as a person, and chopped it down with all his strength.
A huge ear of rice, one foot long and weighing more than ten kilograms, fell to the ground. Before it hit the ground, he quickly stepped forward to catch it, stuffed it into a sack and twisted it hard.
Amidst the sound of "swishy", soybean-sized pearls of rice fell into the sack one after another.
The sickle rose again and cut off the pearly rice stalks as tall as a person with several consecutive cuts, leaving only less than a foot of rice stubble on the ground.
Pearl rice is extremely tall, nearly two people tall, and is somewhat stronger than ordinary trees.
But it is actually an annual herbaceous plant. After harvesting the rice ears, the seedlings must be cut off to prepare for regeneration in the next year, which is somewhat similar to harvesting bananas.
Nourished by spiritual energy, the straw of pearl rice is stronger than iron, but it is also extremely sensitive to magic. Once it comes into contact with magic or magic weapons, the roots will easily be damaged or even die.
Therefore, you cannot use magic weapons or spells to harvest pearl rice, you can only rely on brute force. This is why Liu Yubo had to recruit Xu Wen and other casual cultivators.
Mortals have no choice but to obtain strong straw, and it is impossible for people from the Zhiyuan Sect to do such hard work.
Practitioners in the middle and late stages of Qi refining are not good either. The price is too high and it is not cost-effective to harvest such low-level spiritual rice. After all calculations, it can only be done by Xu Wen and others in the early stage of Qi refining.
These long-handled scythes look inconspicuous, but in fact they are mixed with a little black iron and are extremely sharp. In the mortal world, any one of them can be called a peerless magic weapon.
Even so, everyone was soon sweating profusely after swinging with all their strength again and again.
Compared to others, Xu Wen was a little more relaxed.
He has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years, and his physical strength is strong, and his movement skills are far better than ordinary people. Although he has never done this kind of work, he has mastered the trick after a few times.
With the sound of "swish, swish, swish", each pearl rice plant was cut off, and half an hour later, a full bag was harvested.
Send it to the ridge of the field, get a new empty bag and start again...
After turning around the spiritual fields one by one, Liu Yubo couldn't help but nodded slightly when he saw that everyone was working hard.
In fact, there is no need for his supervision. Only a fool would not cherish the work of 10 spiritual stones a day, the benefits of spiritual rice and spiritual energy, and the relationship with the Zhiyuan Sect.
Moreover, Liu Minghe was not just someone he found. He knew these people well, and they were all down-to-earth and willing to work hard.
Three hours later, Xu Wen harvested another sack of spiritual rice. Just as he was about to send it out, his stomach suddenly tightened slightly, and he suddenly felt a long-lost hunger.
After completing the Qi refining method, he no longer had this kind of hunger at the muscle level. The high-intensity work for several hours in a row actually reawakened the primitive functions of the intestines and stomach.
I selected more than fifty grains of plump and round pearl rice, and with a slight rub, the black rice husks fell off one after another, revealing the crystal-clear rice grains inside like white pearls.
High-end ingredients only require the simplest cooking methods!
No other cooking utensils are needed, just find a pearl rice leaf on the spot, roll it into a ball and hang it on the straw, add rice grains, pour water, light a fire and boil.
When the rice is slightly browned, the remaining heat will be absorbed by the water and will not actually burn.
After a while, the water began to boil, and a strange fragrance suddenly filled the air.
The people around who were still working hard to harvest the pearl rice couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and stopped one after another to start cooking the pearl rice.
Although pearl rice is not particularly valuable, it is not something casual cultivators like them can afford casually, so they cannot let go of this opportunity.
The water is still boiling, but the special fragrance is getting weaker and weaker, and finally disappears completely.
Xu Wen knew that this was a sign that the spiritual rice was cooked.
Extinguish the flame, pour a few grains of pearl rice into your mouth, and make several soft "bop-bop" sounds, as if the berries have been bitten and burst, and the mellow rice juice suddenly fills your mouth.
The clear feeling goes straight to the intestines and stomach, but before it reaches the lungs, it turns warm again, making the whole body feel slightly warm and extremely comfortable.
Xu Wen suddenly felt his energy shaken. His energy, which had been a little tired due to the loss of essence and blood, suddenly recovered a lot.
Spiritual rice is different from spiritual stones and elixirs. Although it has less spiritual energy and takes more time to absorb, it is more mellow and thick, and is easier to be absorbed by the body. There is no hidden danger of drug resistance.
After taking Huangya Dan, the essence and blood have recovered a lot. With this meal of spiritual rice, the depleted essence and blood finally returned to the passing line.
At this level, the essence and blood can circulate and recover by themselves. Even if you no longer take spiritual rice and elixirs, you can slowly return to normal levels without worrying about damaging the source.
After meditating for a long time and locking the spiritual rice essence in his body, Xu Wen jumped up, wielded the long-handled sickle again, and worked hard to harvest the spiritual rice.
…
One day later, while looking at the vast spiritual field, Xu Wen, who was resting, had a sudden idea and inspired the Heavenly Eye Baoguang Technique.
There are still several days before we can leave. The Heavenly Eye Baoguang Technique has been fully restored. It would be useless if we don't use it, and it would be a waste to keep it.
In an instant, densely packed precious lights rose.
Since mastering this spell, this is the most precious light he has ever seen.
Although pearl rice is just a low-grade spiritual rice, pearl rice and rice are serious first-level spiritual objects.
In fact, in addition to the pearl rice, the wormwood on the side and even some inconspicuous weeds are all spiritual things.
Like ordinary fields, spiritual fields also have weeds. No matter how we clear them, it is impossible to completely eliminate them.
The tall pearly rice gives them space to live, and knee-high weeds can be seen everywhere.
As long as there are not too many that affect the growth of spiritual plants, Ling Zhifu will not care.
Many of these weeds are ordinary weeds, but a few have mutated under the baptism of spiritual energy and become spiritual weeds.
Looking at those inconspicuous spiritual herbs, an idea suddenly arose.
Liu Yubo only asked them to harvest the spiritual rice and not to damage the spiritual wormwood. He didn't mention these weeds at all. He obviously didn't care.
The price of these spiritual herbs is not high, and most of them can only be used to make talisman paper or weave some low-level fabrics.
The Zhiyuan Sect looks down on these things, and even hates them very much, because they will compete with the pearl rice for spiritual energy and consume the fertility of the spiritual land.
But for Xu Wen, if he could collect more, it would actually be a good income.
Looking around, there was only movement coming from far away, and no one was there.
Everyone's efficiency in harvesting spiritual rice was different. They were far apart and blocked by dense wormwood, so they couldn't see each other at all.
Liu Yubo also just passed by here and will not be back in a short time.
It is beneficial to oneself and not harmful to others. There is no reason not to do so.
After a brief thought, he hesitated no longer. He quickly walked through the tall pearly rice, marking out all the spiritual herbs along the way.
