Chapter 107: Chapter 5 Golden Rain [New Book Seek Monthly Ticket!] _1
Atop Silver Sword Peak, Liu Xiaoyu had a premonition when she saw the beaming face of Chu Liang approaching.
"Is another blessing coming?"
"You’ve been working hard."
Liu Xiaoyu shook her head, feeling that this person was rather peculiar.
Chu Liang quickly arrived inside the White Pagoda, where those black fur balls had run off at quite a speed, with about dozen cut down during the chase. The rest had dispersed and were nowhere to be found, so he didn’t bother searching for them.
These little ghosts probably wouldn’t yield anything too valuable, so he came back to check on the spoils first.
With the help of the koi, he pressed the "Refine" character.
Boom——
A flash of light, and a tiny white radiant orb floated out.
[Berry seeds]:
When planted, they will yield Gold Pattern Flowers and Gold Pattern Berries, which when consumed can replenish vitality, detoxify, and nourish the skin.
"Seeds?"
Because he had previously gotten Spirit Beast Egg, this tiny seed didn’t surprise Chu Liang too much.
However, he silently said a word to those black fur monsters in his heart.
According to the code of conduct in the Jianghu, if someone gives you a seed, you should say to him... May good people always be safe.
Chu Liang didn’t forget this courtesy.
Then, he gave it a thought, there was nothing else to do, so he familiarized himself with the seed and planted it first.
He stepped outside to find a flat, empty space on the hillock to plant this seed.
Although it wouldn’t require much space, a good amount of open space was still necessary. After all, he has a dozen or so black fur balls left in the White Pagoda. Maybe this place could eventually become a large orchard in the future.
However, he didn’t know exactly how long it would take for the seed to sprout, blossom, and bear fruit, so he decided to go directly to the Pill Furnace Pavilion to buy a bag of Plant Spirit Medicine Powder.
This medicine powder was a type of spiritual medicine commonly used on Shu Mountain for catalyzing the growth of spirit plants and planning vegetation. It could quickly replenish the spiritual energy necessary for plant growth.
Even so, this Spirit Plant Powder wasn’t cheap, costing three sword coins a pack.
After buying the medicine powder, Chu Liang returned to the spot where he had previously planted the seed. He carefully pinched a bit of the powder with his fingers and sprinkled it on the soil before watering it.
After that, it was just a matter of silently waiting.
Upon seeing this, Liu Xiaoyu found it odd and came over to ask, "Big Brother Chu Liang, what are you doing?"
"I’m waiting for the seed to sprout." Chu Liang responded.
Liu Xiaoyu found this quite interesting, so she stayed to watch.
The two of them squatted together on the barren land, their heads tilted as they stared blankly at the empty patch of soil.
The Plant Spirit Powder was remarkably effective. After a short while, they saw a young tiny shoot break through the soil. It was pink, tender, and very small.
Moreover, it continued to grow at a rate visible to the naked eye. In less than an hour, the plant quickly grew taller, spread out its leaves, blossomed, and bore fruits.
Soon, a large, ripe, red fruit broke out from the slender stem, putting so much weight on the plant that it drooped towards the ground.
"Wow..." Liu Xiaoyu exclaimed, "It’s actually bearing fruit."
"Indeed." Chu Liang also looked pretty pleased. After all, this was like growing a large fruit from a small twig.
After he gently plucked the Gold Pattern Berry, he noticed that it was about the size of a baby’s fist, with a soft skin full of luscious juice. There was a golden pattern on it, hinting at its spirituality.
This was probably considered the most basic kind of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure. It had a little more spirituality than ordinary fruits, but less value than the real Spirit Plants.
After picking the fruit, the leaves slumped, but the remaining flowers were blooming, indicating that more fruits could be harvested.
"Not bad at all." Chu Liang muttered to himself.
This could be a sustainable business.
Musing over it, Chu Liang spontaneously bit into it. As expected, it was juicy and splashed a sweet, refreshing flavor into his mouth. The texture was excellent.
Even if the items from the White Pagoda weren’t always useful, they were always tasty.
Consuming all of the skin and flesh in a few bites, Chu Liang wiped his hands, thinking that all of the seeds could be planted. Even if it was just for seasonal fruits, it would still be a nice gesture for Silver Sword Peak.
As he was about to proceed, he lowered his head and saw Liu Xiaoyu squatting on the ground, her face tilted upward, her eyes gazing at him eagerly.
"What’s wrong?" He asked.
Liu Xiaoyu blinked, "I also want to eat."
"For the first fruit, I will try it for you," Chu Liang said unperturbed, "If you want to eat, we will plant more."
With that, he continued to dig the holes, refining the imprint of the dozen or so black fur balls, then planted the seeds in the soil, and sprinkled them all with the spiritual medicine powder.
He then handed the water bottle to Liu Xiaoyu.
"Do you want to eat the fruit? I have a task for you. From now on, you’ll be in charge of watering these gold pattern flowers every day. When they bear fruit, they are yours to eat," said Chu Liang.
"Okay!" Liu Xiaoyu nodded vigorously.
In no time, a large swath of gold pattern flowers sprouted and fruited, forming a small field of beautiful flowers, vibrant and dazzling.
"Wow..." Liu Xiaoyu asked, "Can I eat them now?"
"You can now." Chu Liang concurred, immediately reminding her, "In the future, don’t forget to water them."
"What if I forget?" Liu Xiaoyu furrowed her eyebrows.
"If you forget, there will be no tasty fruits to eat," Chu Liang solemnly told her.
After instructing Liu Xiaoyu, he was ready to return.
Even though this Gold Pattern Berry was delicious, it was, after all, just a fruit and did not confer significant benefits to cultivation, so he didn’t need to be overly concerned about it.
As he was about to leave, he heard Liu Xiaoyu, carrying her small kettle, sigh quietly, "It would be nice if it rained every day."
Chu Liang shook his head with a smile.
Before he reached his room, however, he saw a patch of dark clouds forming overhead and, in a blink of an eye, a light rain started to fall.
He turned around and looked at Liu Xiaoyu in amazement, quite taken aback.
On Shu Mountain, it was rare to see rainclouds because the cloud sea was beneath them and the spiritual energy rose, making it very rare for rain or snow to fall.
Besides, even with normal rain, it didn’t usually form clouds one second and start raining the next. This was happening too fast.
Was their luck to have made such a wish fulfilled to such an uncanny degree? This was simply stunning.
But, it was too unbelievable.
As he stood there, surprised, the raindrops fell on him.
He felt a certain itchiness in his physical body, not an uncomfortable itch, but a subtle sensation of spiritual energy seeping in.
What was this...?
He looked up at the rain in the sky and collected a few drops in his hand. He found that when the rainwater entered his hand, it contained a hint of gold.
Golden rain?
After the droplets fell into his palm, the golden color quickly disappeared, seeping into his skin.
What was happening?
Without knowing the cause, he quickly pulled Liu Xiaoyu under the eaves to take refuge, temporarily avoiding the rainwater.
Shortly after, an old voice was heard from Tontian Peak, reverberating throughout Shu Mountain.
"A real dragon dwells in Shu Mountain. From now on, there will frequently be rain transformed from dragon breath. This rain nourishes the physical body and benefits cultivation, there is no harm. Disciples of each peak do not need to panic."
The voice seemed to be that of Pill Furnace Elder. Upon hearing this, Chu Liang became aware that the rare rain on Shu Mountain came from the dragon.
He almost thought that it was brought by Liu Xiaoyu’s wish.
Since it was a good thing, there was no need to avoid it in the future.
Wait...
Chu Liang looked up at the rain clouds in the sky, a hint of puzzlement on his face.
Even if the rain transformed from the dragon breath was normal...
The rain cloud was only over the top of Silver Sword Peak, directly targeting my mountain peak. Was this really normal?
