As the gold coins in the system suddenly decreased, a small earth crystal appeared in Li Tianxiang’s hand.

This so-called earth crystal was about the size of his palm. It was a translucent brown crystal that was shaped like a spindle. At the center of the crystal was a star jade that seemed to be made of sand. The star jade was rotating extremely slowly in the crystal.

Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise, but Li Tianxiang took out the Earth Magic Book he had rewarded yesterday from the system space.

[Do you want to learn the basic earth magic?]

Yes.

As a faint light flashed, the magic book in Li Tianxiang’s hand disappeared. At the same time, the basic applications of earth magic appeared in his mind.

After pondering for a moment, Li Tianxiang spread out his hands. The Ground-Piercing Spell condensed in one of his hands as he placed the earth crystal that was worth 500,000 gold coins in the other.

The so-called Ground-Piercing Spell was a skill that extracted the energy of earth magic from the surrounding environment and gathered it in one’s hand. Then, one could shape this energy into an extremely sharp earth spike with one’s thoughts and fire it.

At this moment, Li Tianxiang only wanted to see the connection between the elemental earth energy and the earth crystal. Thus, he didn’t deliberately shape the magic power in his hand. Instead, he simply allowed it to continuously condense and dissipate in his hand.

As a result, a yellow cyclone appeared in his palm. It was somewhat similar to the star jade, which was made of sand, in the center of the earth crystal.

Li Tianxiang held his breath and slowly brought the earth crystal in his hand closer to the cyclone in his other hand. His nerves were tense as he was afraid that an accident would occur and cause him to suffer from injuries. After all, based on the stinginess of the system, the treatment would probably cost a lot.

However, most importantly, this earth crystal cost 500,000 gold coins. If anything happened to this earth crystal, he would probably feel the pinch for several days.

Under the control of Li Tianxiang, who felt as if he was carrying a weight of 1,000 kilograms, the earth crystal and earth elemental cyclone gradually approached each other. Just as they were about a palm’s length apart…

He could see that the speed of the cyclone in the earth crystal was increasing again. Meanwhile, the cyclone in his hand was also attracted by the earth crystal and was leaning towards it.

As a result, the cyclone turned into a strange shape. One end of the cyclone was round, while the other was sharp. At the same time, Li Tianxiang also sensed that the elemental energy in his hand was showing signs of losing control.

Li Tianxiang didn’t dare to delay. He quickly condensed the cyclone in his hand into an earth spike and shot it towards an empty space. Then, he forcefully pulled the earth crystal away.

However, when he pulled the earth crystal away, a magical attraction was formed between the cyclone and the earth crystal. As a result, the two objects were pushed a distance apart from each other like magnets. Li Tianxiang had wasted a lot of his energy on doing so.

Li Tianxiang panted slightly. In this short period of time, he felt his power decrease greatly. He could even feel that he would not be able to condense the elemental earth power again in a short period of time.

However, he had proven one of his guesses — the earth crystal was related to the earth elemental power. In that case, if he could find a place where the earth element was abundant, he might be able to find some earth crystals.

“Boss, Boss!”

Siebel’s excited voice sounded from behind Li Tianxiang. He turned around and saw her running over with a handful of germinated soybeans.

“I’ve succeeded!”

Siebel sounded excited, which puzzled Li Tianxiang. He didn’t believe that his words yesterday would make her so interested in farming.

However, no matter what her motivation was, as long as it was beneficial for his farming, Li Tianxiang didn’t care.

Siebel placed the bean sprouts on the table, looking very proud of herself.

Li Tianxiang smiled and opened the bean sprouts. Then, he carefully examined them. Yes… They had already germinated perfectly. The roots and leaves had already developed.

The endosperm had also been used up. However, if the seeds with this degree of development were planted in the ground, it would save him at least half a month. Furthermore, it would also have a relatively high resistance to the climate.

[Congratulations on completing the cultivation stage: Germination. Reward: Fertilization formula.]

Li Tianxiang had previously thought that fertilizer was essential for growing crops. However, ever since he had been transported to this farm, he had never seen any traces of fertilizer.

If he continued to plant his crops like this, even if his harvest this year was guaranteed, the fertility of the land would quickly decrease. In the future, he probably wouldn’t be able to grow any plants, let alone harvest any crops.

Now, it seemed that the system was very scientific when it came to farming. After all, it had given him the so-called fertilizer formula while he went through the steps of planting crops.

However, this fertilizer was not manure, wood ash, or industrial fertilizer that was produced by modern technology. What exactly was going on with this formula?

Pa.

With a light sound, a thin, black notebook with a soft cover landed on the table in front of Li Tianxiang. There were a few golden words printed on it, making it look very exquisite.

“Global Farming System Production Guide”

He flipped open the notebook. The first page was filled with a content page, but a large number of items in the content page were filled with question marks now. Only the middle chapters on fertilizer had been unlocked. Just as Li Tianxiang’s thoughts turned to the fertilizer, the notebook automatically began to turn the pages. About a second later, the notebook was spread out in front of him.

[Elementary-Leveled Fertilizer Formula: Magic crystal x3, crop growth speed increased by 1%.]

As he continued down this line, the entire page was blank. After some thinking, Li Tianxiang understood. He estimated that as he continued to explore the farming system, more words would appear in this production guide.

It was a very convenient system.

After pondering for a moment, Li Tianxiang silently chanted the words “earth crystal.”

[The level of the land is too low to unlock this vocabulary.]

The corners of Li Tianxiang’s mouth twitched. This meant that to understand the method of obtaining or making earth crystals, he had to upgrade the land first.

If he wanted to upgrade his land, he had to obtain a large number of earth crystals first. However, it was probably impossible to obtain a large number of earth crystals with just gold coins.

“Eh? Isn’t this an earth crystal?”

Just as Li Tianxiang was in a daze, Siebel noticed the small crystal he had placed in his palm.

“Do you know this?”

A different kind of hope rose in Li Tianxiang’s heart.

Siebel could not understand Li Tianxiang’s question.

“You have so many magic crystals. Don’t you know about earth crystals?”

Li Tianxiang was slightly stunned. He did not know what connection the two crystals had.

“The magical crystal is a combination of earth crystals and other elemental crystals. It’s a pure magical crystal.”

Li Tianxiang was elated and asked her nervously.

“Then do you know how to obtain earth crystals?”

Siebel tapped her chin with her jade-like fingers before speaking regretfully.

“Succubi rarely use this thing, but humans often use it. It’s said to be very beneficial for the cultivation of magic. Furthermore, among the humans, the alchemists who can synthesize and break down magic crystals seem to possess earth crystals.”

“Siebel! You must be an angel sent by the heavens!”

Li Tianxiang jumped up excitedly. Without caring about Siebel’s reaction, he summoned the teleportation portal from the system.

After watching Li Tianxiang disappear behind a light blue curtain, Siebel whispered.

“An angel? Who wants to be that kind of thing?”
