Chapter 1440: Chapter 60: My Disciple Wang Ruobing! Possessing the Stature of a True Demon (Vote for Monthly Ticket)_2

Moreover, its rhizomes are thick and extremely tough, penetrating deeply and extensively. Only a Spirit Plant Master of the Purple Abode Realm possesses the necessary Divine Sense and Mysterious Energy to fully encompass its roots and barely manage to clear it.

“Sixth Grand Elder.” Wang Shouzhe stepped forward with a cupped fist salute to greet him.

“Shouzhe has come.” Wang Xiaohan laughed robustly, “Come, come, come, your Grand Elder has brewed some fine wine, you must come to my humble dwelling and taste it.”

Wang Xiaohan, although still appearing elderly, was now full of vitality and vigor.

More than thirty years ago, the Advanced Wedding Blood Gu Essence Edition that they first acquired from the Blood Venerate’s relics was prioritized for Elder Xiaohan, to significantly boost his bloodline.

And over ten years ago, Elder Xiaohan successfully overcame the Heavenly Tribulation, becoming one of the family’s Purple Abode Elders.

“Shouzhe has other matters today, I will have to take a rain check and drink to our hearts’ content with the Sixth Elder another day.” Wang Shouzhe looked around at the lush Immortal Spirit Fields and remarked emotionally, “This Immortal Spirit Barnyard Grass really gives one a headache. No matter how many times it’s cleared, it grows back even more. It surely has given Elder Xiaohan quite the trouble.”

“It’s not too much trouble, I can still manage these mere twenty acres of Immortal Spirit Fields,” Wang Xiaohan said shaking his head, “The Immortal Spirit Barnyard Grass is manageable with persistence. It’s the increasing variety of pesky creatures like Spirit Sparrows, Spirit Rats, and spiritual insects that come with the ever-thickening Immortal Spirit Qi we have here. Some of these species are particularly troublesome–invisible, burrowing creatures, swift as the wind–they really give me a headache.”

“Fortunately, His Majesty places great importance on Sacred and Immortal grade fields, and would personally intervene in the event of a disaster, thereby ensuring the harvest of the Sacred Spirit Rice and Immortal Spirit Rice.”

Humans often clear away larger Fierce Beasts and hazardous plants while cultivating land. However, it is very difficult to completely eradicate various small, elusive creatures such as Spirit Rats, snakes, and birds.

The higher the grade of a Spirit Field, the more likely it is to attract the covetousness of advanced spiritual rats, sparrows, and insects over time. One of the main jobs of a Spirit Plant Master is to battle these various “disasters.”

Indeed, it is preferable to have at least one individual in the Divine Power Territory with a Spiritual Realm Transformation to protect the top-tier Sacred Spirit Fields of the Immortal Dynasty, while Immortal Spirit Fields often require at least one from the Transcendent Void Realm to patrol and watch over them.

In addition to the difficult disasters, one must also guard against human theft.

The value of Sacred Spirit Rice and Immortal Spirit Rice is extremely high, and they are highly attractive to those in the Transcendent Void Realm. Without powerful guardians and various precautions, there is a constant risk of theft.

Fortunately, the Wang family’s Sacred and Immortal grade Spirit Fields are all within the Main Residence of the Wang family, the stationed location of Li Xian, making it extremely difficult for anyone to carry out theft without alerting both the Wang family and Li Xian’s main form.

And the Wang family is not without means; as it stands, they can secure both the Sacred and Immortal Spirit Fields.

However, the other Spirit Fields of various grades are currently in a state of chronic manpower shortage, which is why the Wang family is recruiting and training a large number of Spirit Plant Masters.

These are not problems that can be solved in a short time.

After some casual conversation with Elder Xiaohan, Wang Shouzhe went straight to the Stay Immortal Residence.

It was originally a place for Shouzhe to laze around and cultivate in seclusion, but it had been long occupied by Emperor Longchang – and now even Master Jiang has taken guest residence there.

The reason is simple: although the Immortal Spirit Qi of Li Xian is still relatively weak, it is highly attractive to those in the Void Realm. Staying here long term and freeloading off the ‘Little Immortal’s’ Immortal Spirit Qi can’t guarantee a rise in cultivation, but it certainly promises the benefit of a longer lifespan.

As soon as Wang Shouzhe entered the Stay Immortal Residence.

Voices calling out “eat, pong, mahjong” could be heard from the courtyard.

It was a gang of old buddies playing mahjong: Liu Ruolan, Wang Luoyi, Emperor Longchang, and Jiang Zhencang.

All of them were big shots even Shouzhe couldn’t control.

“Shouzhe, you’ve come at the right time.” Emperor Longchang said with a lordly air, “I’ve had bad luck today, lend me ten million Qian Gold first.”

“…” Wang Shouzhe was speechless, “Your Majesty, didn’t you accumulate a good amount of Contribution Points from this last Blood Venerate copy clearance operation? You’ve already lost it all? It’s only been a few months.”

“Er… mainly because I lost quite a bit before… Stop the nonsense, are you lending it or not?” Emperor Longchang said annoyed, “As the Great Emperor, would I ever renege on such trivial money from you?”

“Can’t you all play for smaller stakes?” Wang Shouzhe took out a stack of Purple Gold Notes, helplessly saying, “We’re all on the same side, what’s the point of gambling so heavily?”

“When it’s between our own people, playing big is no issue. After all, the meat stays in our own pot,” Emperor Longchang took the Purple Gold Notes with a carefree attitude, “I’m about to go extract that top quality Spirit Vein from outside. Once I make some money, I’ll pay you back.”

“Whatever you say, Your Highness,” Wang Shouzhe said resignedly, “Continue with your game, I need to deal with some ‘Demonic Artifact’ matters with Li Xian.”

“Demonic Artifact?” asked Emperor Longchang while arranging his mahjong tiles, “Is that the Blood Demon Cloak left behind by the Demon Lord Xietong?”

“That’s right, it’s so saturated with hostility that communication has failed time and time again,” as Wang Shouzhe took out the tattered Blood Demon Cloak from his Storage Ring [Sea of Storage], the cloak still arrogantly declared, “Wang kid, I don’t mind pledging myself to you, just sacrifice the Essence Blood of a hundred thousand people to restore me, and I’ll become your strongest protector. I can ensure your safety even against the Void Realm.”

“And I’ll ask you one last time, can you drink milk?” asked Wang Shouzhe coldly, “We have our own dairy farm and can provide you with a large source of milk.”
