Chapter 1 Moonlight Grass

The sun is shining brightly in the sky, scorching the earth.

“It’s hard to be a casual cultivator…”

Fang Chen, who was lying under the shade of a tree, slowly sat up and rubbed his brows to relieve the swelling feeling caused by receiving a large number of memories.

Just half an hour ago, he traveled through time and space to the body of a person with the same name and surname, and was then confused by the original owner's memories, and only now did he digest them.

That's why I expressed my feelings.

The original owner's family of three were all casual cultivators who worked in Lianyunfang City to earn spirit stones for their cultivation.

Until a while ago, both parents broke through to the fourth level of Qi training. They thought it was time to try their luck in the Lianyun Mountains, and then they died there.

The original owner died of grief after hearing the news, giving Fang Chen the opportunity to travel through time.

"It seems that the original owner has to take care of the spiritual fields in the market today. Damn, I was a cow and horse before I traveled through time, and I am still a cow and horse after I traveled through time. Didn't I travel through time in vain?"

Having said that, Fang Chen still stood up, patted his butt, and went out to work.

Today is the monthly salary payment time, and it would be uneconomical to run away now.

The house his family bought is located on the outskirts of Lianyunfang City. Just a few steps from the door, he reaches the five acres of spiritual farmland he is in charge of, which is also the maximum area that a cultivator at the first level of Qi training can take care of.

After going over the original owner's memories in his mind, Fang Chen tried to mobilize his magic power and cast the Earth Spirit Spell.

This spell can increase the spiritual energy content in the soil. If it is cast on a field for a long time, it can even improve the quality of the spiritual field.

It sounds impressive, but it's actually just a common spell.

According to the original owner's memory, the proficiency of spells can be divided into five stages: entry, proficient, mastery, perfection, and ecstasy.

As far as the Earth Spirit Mantra is concerned, the effect on the spirit field in the entry-level and proficient stages is not as good as loosening the soil with a hoe. Only at the proficient stage and above can it have a visible impact on the spirit field.

The original owner was chosen by Feiyun Market because he was talented in practicing spells and had mastered the Earth Spirit Spell at the proficiency stage at a young age.

However, Fang Chen's proficiency in casting spells was naturally not comparable to that of the original owner. Although he did cast the Earth Spirit Curse successfully, he was only at a proficient level.

"Is this magic? It's magical."

Fang Chen didn't care about it at all. Instead, he was immersed in the novelty of casting a spell for the first time.

However, he also knew what was important and what was not, and knew that he should get his work done first, so he cast the Earth Spirit Spell again.

With the experience of the previous master, after practicing for about ten times, Fang Chen also practiced the Earth Spirit Spell to the level of proficiency.

Soon, the earth spirit spell was cast on all five acres of land.

Most of Fang Chen's magic power was also consumed.

"It is said that to turn a mortal into a cultivator of the first level of Qi training, all it needs is one spiritual fruit. After that, let him learn the Earth Spirit Mantra and take care of five acres of spiritual fields. Even if he only grows spiritual grains, he can generate more than two thousand low-grade spiritual stones in a year. If we split the profits 50-50, I will make a lot of money."

The work was done, and Fang Chen looked at the five acres of spiritual fields in front of him and imagined the future.

This is of course unrealistic.

To cultivate spiritual fields, one needs spiritual veins. However, currently, almost every spiritual vein in the cultivation world has an owner, and the ownerless spiritual veins are all occupied by monsters and beasts. It is not something that a mere Qi training level cultivator like him can possess.

"Is it my illusion? Why do I feel that the spiritual plants in this acre of spiritual field are not as energetic as before?"

With a great dream in his mind and his eyes wandering in the spiritual field, Fang Chen soon noticed something strange.

He squatted down and carefully observed the condition of the spiritual plants. He found that their leaves began to turn yellow, the branches bent down, and their vitality was rapidly lost.

"hehe--"

Just then, a burst of mocking laughter was heard.

Fang Chen looked up and saw Li Ji standing on the ridge of the field, looking at him with a gloating look on his face. This was one of his colleagues, whose level of earth spirit spell was not as good as his, and whose monthly salary was also slightly lower than his, so he often came to cause trouble.

"Hey, isn't this our genius Fang Chen?" Li Ji mocked, "What's wrong? Your Earth Spirit Curse doesn't seem to be that good. Look at these spiritual plants, what have you done to them?"

Fang Chen ignored his ridicule and just looked at the spiritual plants with a frown. The most important thing now was to find a way to save these spiritual plants, not to argue with Li Ji.

Seeing Fang Chen ignore him, Li Ji became even more proud and continued, "I heard that the spiritual plants in this acre of spiritual field are important assets of the market. If something goes wrong, the manager will not let you off easily."

As he spoke, a smug smile appeared on his face, as if he had already seen Fang Chen's miserable look when he was punished by the steward.

Fang Chen took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He knew that what Li Ji said was right. If he couldn't come up with a solution as soon as possible, he would not only lose his job but also face huge compensation.

This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him as he had just crossed over and had no stable source of income.

However, at this moment, Li Ji suddenly turned around and ran towards the market, saying as he ran: "I will go tell the steward and let him come and see what you have done."

Looking at his back, Fang Chen forced himself to calm down. The manager lived deep in the market town, and the use of magic power was prohibited on the streets of the market town. It would take at least two hours to go back and forth.

There is still time.

Fang Chen closed his eyes and began to carefully recall and search the original owner's memory, trying to find a way to solve the problem of the spiritual plant.

Soon, he realized the crux of the problem - because he was not proficient enough in casting the Earth Spirit Spell several times before, the spiritual energy was not completely introduced into the soil, and part of it was absorbed by the spiritual plants.

This spiritual plant called Moonlight Flower is notoriously delicate in the world of cultivation. It can release spiritual energy under the moonlight, but it does not contain a trace of spiritual energy itself, nor does it actively absorb spiritual energy.

Reiki is the biggest poison to it.

Only the mastery-level earth spirit spell can guide all the spiritual energy into the soil and prevent the spiritual energy from being injected into the moon grass.

That is why Fang Chen, who has the best level of spiritual spells among all the spiritual plant husbands, is in charge here.

"I see……"

After finding out the crux of the problem, Fang Chen felt annoyed and could only blame himself for not noticing it earlier.

This problem will not occur even if you release the Earth Spirit Spell on other spiritual plants for training.

But now was obviously not the time to regret, so he immediately adjusted his mood and started thinking about solutions.

However, as time passed, he could not think of any solution.

This cannot be blamed on him. Moonlight grass, a spiritual plant that can produce spiritual energy, is naturally known to everyone in the world of cultivation. The reason why it cannot be cultivated on a large scale is because of its delicate nature.

After thinking hard and to no avail, Fang Chen couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

Considering how precious Moonlight Grass is, Lianyunfang City might ask him for more than just compensation. He might even lose his life.

For a low-level casual cultivator like him who was at the first level of Qi training, his sudden disappearance in Lianyunfang City would not even cause any ripples.

"What kind of world is this? A blade of grass is more important than a human life."

Thinking of this, Fang Chen became a little annoyed. He reached out and grabbed a moonlight grass, trying to pull it out by the roots.

Then, a stream of information flooded into his mind.

Name: Moonlight Grass
Features: Moonlight
Moonlight: Absorb the power of moonlight and transform it into spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Found a new feature, do you want to save it?
