Chapter 684: Chapter 13: Creating the Pure Essence Space, The Effects of the Xuanhuang Analysis Technique! (14,000)_2

"Hmph, his grandson was only fifteen at the time, yet he ordered all the officials to come and wish his grandson longevity. Simply ridiculous!"

"This act was merely to showcase Sulin Prince’s authority and eliminate dissenters."

Zhao Xing nodded, acknowledging that in the Great Zhou’s traditional customs, wishing longevity was usually something that juniors did for their elders.

Mi Fei was already a hundred years old, writing congratulatory messages for a fifteen-year-old child, also being made to present paintings as gifts, how could it not be absurd?

This was akin to calling a stag a horse, purely an insult, using this matter to demonstrate his own authority.

Even after a long time, Mi Fei was still not satisfied.

He then pulled Zhao Xing to another place: "It’s so dark here, let’s find another place to drink."

Swish swish~

The two of them rode the clouds together, flying from the government office to another location.

Zhao Xing thought Mi Fei would take him to his own residence, but unexpectedly, they flew to the Fan Mansion in the south of the city.

Mi Fei went into Fan Mansion and immediately ordered the servants to bring wine and dishes.

The head of the Fan Mansion seemed already accustomed to this, obediently preparing a banquet in the main hall.

Zhao Xing didn’t ask much about why Mi Fei brought him here.

Because Mi Fei’s character was rather peculiar.

"Don’t be fooled by how dutiful these folks look, they are all ruthless." Mi Fei pointed to the head of the Fan Mansion who had withdrawn.

"Returning Ruins City is filled with officials and criminals exiled here. Before I came, the government here was less effective than they were."

"The divine temple is not set up in the Star Ruins Realm to avoid losing divine power after it’s shut down."

"I frequently send clones to these people’s mansions to reside permanently."

Zhao Xing nodded, understanding that the Star Ruins Realm was equivalent to a prison. The exiled officials and nobles thrived and multiplied here, eventually giving rise to many descendants of criminals.

They could no longer be considered citizens of the Great Zhou. If several generations later they had no criminal record, they’d have a chance to become Zhou Dynasty citizens again.

Mi Fei’s method was using Self Grassman to perform the duty of Yin God surveillance. Usually, the Grassman remained stationary in the mansion, but if anyone dared to commit wrongdoings, they’d have to consider if they could evade Mi Fei’s watchful eyes.

Zhao Xing also understood why Mr. Mi brought him here, purely to see if he was truly ’one of the same path.’

If he didn’t agree with Mi Fei’s methods, their previous exchanges would significantly diminish, and he might even be turned away by Mi Fei.

"Mr. Mi’s method is indeed marvelous. Just with one Grassman, it makes these criminal officials behave themselves."

"Hahaha, Chen An understands me." Mi Fei laughed cheerfully.

....

In the following half month, Zhao Xing stayed in Returning Ruins City.

He didn’t do anything else, just invited Mi Fei to eat and drink well, then chatted with him.

Mi Fei too found the more they talked, the happier he became.

Far away in Pinghai State, there was such a junior who admired him so much. It indeed gave him a wonderful feeling.

Moreover, Zhao Xing suited his taste very well.

Whether discussing the Minister of Agriculture Dao or painting Dao, musical Dao, Zhao Xing could keep up and had quite the insights.

Zhao Xing wasn’t just flattering aimlessly but had real substance in his words.

After half a month of eating and drinking, Mi Fei even developed a sense of regret meeting him so late.

And Zhao Xing indeed wasn’t insincere flattery.

In fact, he knew more about Mi Fei than about Liu Tianning.

In his original plan, Zhao Xing intended to apprentice under Mi Fei, not Liu Tianning.

Mi Fei held a very high status among the players.

How high?

Mi Fei had the title of ’Founder of the Common People’ among the Minister of Agriculture players.

Because Mi Fei’s Xuanhuang Analysis Technique allowed Minister of Agriculture players to activate the Pure Essence Soil.

In the Primordial Qi Era, the spiritual energy items required for cultivating the Xuanhuang Analysis Technique were precious, but after the Spiritual Energy Recovery Era, these items became easier to find.

Just this one Secret Technique lifted the Minister of Agriculture players out of the then ’sewer occupation.’

Don’t think it’s easy for Zhao Xing to obtain the Secret Technique now, but in later generations, the path to learning spells was scarce and demanded a huge cost.

The combat strength of Minister of Agriculture players was relatively weak back then. It wasn’t until the Gathering Essence 50th Rank that the Pure Essence Soil appeared, and opening it consumed immense resources.

Even if opened, many common players’ Pure Essence Space was not large, unable to accommodate many plant species.

Even now, generally, the combat effectiveness of Ministers of Agriculture was still lower than other occupations.

Zhao Xing, being a Military Minister of Agriculture Officer, was an extreme exception. Ordinary Ministers of Agriculture, even military ones, did not have his encounters.

Ordinary Military Ministers of Agriculture couldn’t possibly learn the Ten Thousand Skill Grass Man at this time, they’d at most learn one school of spell.

Meanwhile, in the same time, players of other occupations were out conquering heavens and earth, while Ministers of Agriculture were still farming, earning money, begging for training, not daring to go out fighting monsters.

But the development of the Xuanhuang Analysis Technique changed this phenomenon.

Moreover, the plants that could be grown in Pure Essence Space were rare and expensive.

In Mi Fei’s later years, he compiled "Pure Essence Derivative Species," listing over 800 plant species that could be grown in Pure Essence Soil!

These species were cultivated through hybridization, in simpler terms, Mi Fei researched many low-cost, decent combat alternative plant species.

What he passed down to future generations also included the book "Plant Troop Techniques," which shone brightly in the Spiritual Energy Recovery Era.

Liu Tianning’s Ten Thousand Skill Grass Man was too advanced. In later stages, Liu Banfeng’s storyline tasks were many, the rewards were high, and carried much mystery.

But his popularity couldn’t surpass Mi Fei, because those were tasks only high-level players could accept. In the hearts of the vast majority of Minister of Agriculture players, Mi Fei was the true master!
