[In the fourth year, the second batch of Gathering Spirit Flowers you planted matured again, and you harvested fifty mature Gathering Spirit Flowers and eighty Gathering Spirit Flower seeds.][You transplanted the mature Gathering Spirit Flowers into the Spirit Gathering Array, then started a new round of planting.]
Su Xing chuckled to himself upon seeing this:
"Wow, I didn't expect this Shennong talent to be so powerful!"
"On average, they mature every two years, and the number of seeds harvested is about one and a half times the original amount. With this rate, I could easily grow more than a thousand Gathering Spirit Flowers this time!"
Thinking of this, the corners of Su Xing's mouth lifted slightly.
If there really were over a thousand Gathering Spirit Flowers, he wouldn't have to worry about energy for a while.
"And this Spirit Rice, the yield has doubled... one acre yields twenty thousand jin a year, and the effects of the Spirit Rice are even better!"
"So, with my five hundred acres, doesn't that mean a total annual yield of ten million jin?"
Su Xing raised his eyebrows; if this trend continued,
then he could advance his plan for large-scale Spirit Rice cultivation on Blue Star.
The simulation of Gathering Spirit Flowers was now almost sufficient; all that was lacking were Spirit Stones.
His gaze shifted to the simulation panel.
[In the fifth year, you accidentally discovered that after ascending to the Divinity Transformation Stage, Soul Condensing Pills once again had an effect on the expansion of your Divine Sense.]
[Although the effect was small, it still expanded the range of your Divine Sense by about fifty meters each year.]
[You made a mental note and then distributed most of the Soul Condensing Pills to Luo Shuying.] Sёarch* The Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
[In the sixth year, a new batch of Gathering Spirit Flowers matured.]
[At this point, the number of newly planted mature Gathering Spirit Flowers in your hand reached one hundred sixty, with seeds numbering one hundred.]
[You started a new round of planting.]
[In the seventh year, your Spirit Rice project was a great success. In the Spirit Field Blessed Land, each acre could yield twenty thousand jin of Spirit Grains a year, totaling ten million jin of Spirit Rice from five hundred acres.]
[Not only that, but you also sealed off two large mountains in the suburbs of Kyoto, totalling three thousand acres, which you specifically used as a testing ground for planting Spirit Rice.]
[But it took you an entire year to only set up a few hundred small Spirit Gathering Arrays, far less than you expected.]
[Left with no choice, you had to temporarily halt the planting of Spirit Rice and instead improve your mastery of the Spirit Gathering Array.]
[In the eighth year, the number of Gathering Spirit Flowers you planted each year continued to soar rapidly. With the increasing number of Gathering Spirit Flowers, you had to spend two hours a day ensuring their maturity.]
[In the ninth year, your Qi Refining Cultivation increased further, and you felt yourself getting closer and closer to the second realm of Divinity Transformation.]
[As time passed, the Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Field Blessed Land became even more abundant.]
[Spiritual Energy was no longer a barrier to your strength, but advancing in the Divinity Transformation Stage was several times more difficult than in the Nascent Soul Stage, and even a small advancement was not easy.]
[In the tenth year, the number of mature Gathering Spirit Flowers in your hands reached four hundred, and the number of seeds was a full one hundred and fifty.]
[While planting one hundred and fifty Gathering Spirit Flowers, you had to spend three hours a day caring for them, despite your talent in nurturing spirits, to prevent their withering.]
[In the eleventh year, your Qi Refining Cultivation Level remained at the first realm of the Divinity Transformation Stage.]
[The good news was that, due to daily use of Demon Emperor Flesh Essence, your Body Refinement Cultivation Level experienced some breakthroughs, and you became a Cultivator of the fifth level of the Divine Strength Realm!]
[In the twelfth year, you made some breakthroughs in your research on the Spirit Gathering Array, with the success rate of setting up arrays reaching over sixty percent.]
[Over the years, you had set up five hundred small Spirit Gathering Arrays.]
[That same year, the Spirit Rice plan was implemented on a large scale, and you transplanted five hundred Gathering Spirit Flowers into the Spirit Rice test fields, supplemented with Spirit Stones. Each acre on Blue Star could yield up to ten thousand jin a year!]
[Five hundred small Spirit Gathering Arrays could cover one thousand five hundred acres of Spirit Fields, resulting in an annual Spirit Rice production of fifteen million jin on Blue Star!]
[In the thirteenth year, you reported the progress of the Spirit Rice planting to the higher-ups of the Great Xia, which drew serious attention from the officials.]
[The Great Xia Military even sent a legendary professional and two Martial Emperor professionals to ensure the safety of the Spirit Rice test fields.]
[Fifteen million jin of Spirit Rice a year was enough for a million people to use, meaning that each year, the Great Xia Country could cultivate nearly a million more silver-level professionals and a large number of talented professionals.]
[In the fourteenth year, after implementing the Spirit Rice project, you focused more on planting Gathering Spirit Flowers and elevating your own Cultivation Level.]
[In the fifteenth year, your Qi Refining Cultivation Level finally made some breakthroughs, and you successfully advanced to the second stage of the Divinity Transformation Realm.]
Su Xing sighed and said:
"Ah, even with abundant Spiritual Energy, it takes nearly fifteen years to break through a minor realm?"
"Although this speed is extremely fast among Divinity Transformation Cultivators, it is still not enough for me!"
Divinity Transformation Cultivators have a lifespan of a thousand years, and by taking longevity medicines, living for thirteen to fifteen hundred years isn't a problem.
However, advancing in the Divinity Transformation Stage is more difficult, and for ordinary Divinity Transformation Cultivators, it might take twenty to thirty years of hard cultivation to advance one level without a fortuitous encounter.
Su Xing, with his dual True Spiritual Roots, cultivated nearly twice as fast as ordinary Divinity Transformation Cultivators.
But even so, breaking through a minor realm in fifteen years meant that even if he cultivated desperately, he could probably only reach the third realm of Divinity Transformation in one simulation session.
And the higher the cultivation, the more difficult it became!
"Sigh, it seems that to rapidly improve my cultivation, I need to obtain a higher-level Spiritual Root!"
Su Xing let out a sigh, his current Spiritual Root being a blue True Spiritual Root. If he could draw a purple Spiritual Root, his cultivation speed would skyrocket.
But drawing a Spiritual Root was not within his control; it was all down to luck.
"Well, there's no use worrying about gifts of talent. I'll just focus on the present matters!"
Su Xing's gaze returned to the simulation panel.
[In the sixteenth year, as the base number of Gathering Spirit Flowers grew larger, you even had to spend nearly a third of your time each day tending to them.]
[But it was all worth it! This year, the number of Gathering Spirit Flowers in your Spirit Field Blessed Land was close to seven hundred, with the number of seeds reaching three hundred.]
[Based on your estimations, if the number of Gathering Spirit Flowers could reach three thousand, your Spirit Field Blessed Land might undergo a transformation!]
[The dense concentration of Spiritual Energy might elevate your personal Spirit Field from Blessed Land to Heaven's Cave level!]
