Chapter 77: The Breathing Technique of All Things!

Just as Ji Yang was about to make a move, he saw the grayish-yellow earth dog not eating the spiritual grains but instead stretching out its tongue to swiftly swallow a Rice Water Beetle that was clinging to the roots of the grains. After chewing it lightly a couple of times, it swallowed it down.

After finishing the spiritual insect, the grayish-yellow earth dog wagged its tail again and playfully ran toward Ji Yang with a charming expression.

This made Ji Yang ponder for a moment, and he slowly sheathed his Superior flying sword.

The earth dog seemed somewhat extraordinary, but most importantly, it could help him catch insects.

His Thousands of Sword Energies had become quite refined after days of practice, but he had yet to develop the new Golden Rain Technique. If this dog could help him with pest control, that would save him a lot of trouble.

As he watched the earth dog continuously nudge against his pant legs, Ji Yang spoke lightly:

"Since you’ve eaten my spiritual grains, you’ll have to work to repay your debt!"

"From now on, you’ll help me catch insects for twelve hours a day, and you’re not allowed to take weekends off. If you dare to eat my spiritual grains again, my sword won’t spare you!"

After Ji Yang’s threats, the earth dog obediently nodded.

This brought a small smile to Ji Yang’s lips.

You’re quite sensible!

"I’ll give you a name!"

"You’re grayish-yellow, ugly, and like to eat spiritual grains, so I’ll call you Little Black!"

The grayish-yellow earth dog paused for a moment upon hearing this, even its wagging tail stopped for a bit.

Ji Yang didn’t mind; he simply shouted,

“Come here, Little Black, roll over!”

Little Black reluctantly rolled over on the ground but still followed the command.

Seeing this, Ji Yang felt quite satisfied and waved his hand, lying back on the wooden chair.

As for Little Black, Ji Yang unfeelingly sent it to the spiritual field to start catching insects.

In the spiritual field, pest problems never ceased, with new spiritual insects appearing from time to time.

While Little Black caught the bugs, Ji Yang used his primordial spirit energy to observe its movements. He didn’t fully trust this earth dog; if it dared to continue stealing food, he would have to eliminate it without hesitation.

However, Little Black seemed very focused, diligently catching spiritual insects and remaining obedient.

Only when it glanced at the supreme spiritual grain “Golden Fruit” in the center of the field did its eyes widen in surprise.

Upon seeing that special “Golden Fruit” spiritual grain, its gaze turned blank, and saliva trickled from the corner of its mouth involuntarily.

After swallowing some saliva, Little Black looked back at Ji Yang, finally turning its gaze away with reluctance.

On the thirteenth day of planting the spiritual grains, Ji Yang harvested thirteen cultivation points, dozens of Yun Ling Dans, and countless White Light Points.

With Little Black’s help, Ji Yang only needed to intervene occasionally; the rest of the time, he practiced his spells.

Having reached the Golden Core Stage, Ji Yang’s understanding of spells deepened, giving him hope to integrate the Thousands of Sword Energies into the Large Cloud Rain Technique.

Moreover, after reaching the Golden Core Stage, Ji Yang felt he should be able to eliminate a flaw in all three types of spiritual grains, which would make the seeds of the top-quality spiritual grains even more perfect.

However, this would need to wait until this batch of grains ripened.

It was uncertain what would happen after he eliminated the flaws and planted another batch; he was intrigued to see if he could still harvest Blue Light Points, which would require some experimentation.

Aside from the spiritual grains, the Mid-tier Spiritual Plants planted beside the wooden house also grew remarkably fast, likely due to the abundant spiritual energy at Jingtan Peak.

It seemed that in no time, they would be ready for harvest.

However, the seed of the Seven-Leaf Soul Flower still showed no signs of change, and there were no sprouting shoots.

Even the elders of the sect couldn’t find a way to make it grow, and Ji Yang could only helplessly give up; such spiritual plants were clearly not easy to cultivate.

On the fourteenth day after planting the spiritual grains, Ji Yang harvested fifteen cultivation points!

At this point, all the spiritual grains were on the verge of maturity, with plentiful ears of rice on the stalks, making for an excellent harvest.

In the past two days, Little Black had also been diligent, working very hard with no signs of stealing food, which made Ji Yang quite pleased; he decided to reward it later.

A big stick must have a sweet date!

On the fifteenth day after planting the spiritual grains, Ji Yang emerged from the wooden house early.

What greeted his eyes was a vast expanse of Green Light Points mixed with a small number of Blue Light Points; although they were few, there were definitely more than yesterday.

At this moment, the spiritual grains were completely ripe!

After witnessing all the harvest, Ji Yang didn’t rush to gather them but focused his attention on his capable assistant, the flawless “Golden Fruit.”

This “Golden Fruit” spiritual grain was now fully matured, and as Ji Yang gazed at it, a glimmer of delight appeared in his eyes.

It had turned out to be Purple Light Points!

It was worth the effort of nurturing it with a Superior flying sword’s sword energy.

At this moment, beneath the “Golden Fruit,” Little Black was eagerly waiting, eager to climb up the rice stalks.

However, upon seeing Ji Yang’s silhouette, Little Black retracted its gaze.

Seeing this, Ji Yang nodded in satisfaction and began to absorb the Light Points.

He first absorbed the Purple Light Points; delicious things must be eaten first.

After collecting these, Ji Yang did not rush to check but instead collected the other spiritual grains one by one before summarizing.

Today’s harvest was plentiful, with over a hundred Green Light Points and twenty Blue Light Points! It was indeed the peak of the past few days!

The harvest over these past few days equaled that of multiple days of mining, and that was merely during the mature phase of the spiritual grains.

When the next batch of spiritual grains came, it might not yield such great results unless he could find new types of grains that were different from these few types.

This would be challenging, as most spiritual grains in the Cultivation World were slowly cultivated from a few basic types, and other sects’ spiritual grains were likely quite similar.

After collecting all the Light Points, Ji Yang no longer paid attention to the remaining spiritual grains but focused on the Purple Light Points he had just gathered.

The Breathing Technique of All Things: All things in heaven and earth breathe!

This was the product of the Purple Light Points and also a divine ability!

However, as he looked at the description of this divine ability, Ji Yang felt a bit puzzled.

But it didn’t matter; he would understand by trying it out.

In the next moment, Ji Yang concentrated and activated the divine ability!

His internal magic energy quickly drained away; this divine ability was not ordinary, but given Ji Yang’s Golden Core mid-stage magic energy, this consumption was nothing.

As the divine ability activated, Ji Yang felt he returned to the state he had during the Heart Sword divine ability, but everything before his eyes transformed.

Unlike the Heart Sword divine ability, he saw no flaws.

Before him stood a field of spiritual grains, but now these spiritual grains appeared pale green to Ji Yang, with a hint of light yellow and withering color.

Ji Yang walked toward the spiritual field and finally fixed his gaze on the “Golden Fruit” spiritual grain right in front of him!

Golden Fruit: My task is complete! Hahaha!

Ji Yang was momentarily taken aback; did this spiritual grain just speak?
