Chapter 303: Twelve Golden Hairpins
The elven divine tree in the heart of the earth realm had bloomed and borne fruit!
Lin Xuan immediately sensed that something had happened inside. He put down the Lanka Sutra in his hand and entered the heart of the earth realm. He stood under the elven divine tree and looked up at the ten huge fruits on the tree. He knew that the dragon elves were being nurtured inside.
The fruit was about to ripen, but it would still take a long time for it to absorb the spirit in the air to breed these dozen or so dragon elves. Logically speaking, Lin Xuan should be choosing the best crop to keep. This would speed up the breeding of dragon elves and also filter out a portion that was of lower quality.
However, this was the first batch, and it meant a lot to him. Furthermore, the area of the heart of the earth realm had expanded a lot compared to before. Lin Xuan was still afraid that these dozen or so dragon elves would not be enough, so why would he be picky?
If he didn’t have enough spiritual energy, he could make up for it with dragon blood!
Compared to the spirit absorbed by the elven divine tree itself, the effects of watering it with dragon blood would be much better. Not only would it speed up the nurturing of dragon elves, but it would also improve the quality of those dragon elves that were slightly inferior. Most importantly, it would increase the content of their dragon blood altogether.
Lin Xuan took out the dragon blood bottle and watered the tree. The bottle might not have been big, but there was a lot of dragon blood in it. It was all processed earth-rank dragon blood and did not contain any soul fragments.
Three seconds later, Lin Xuan put away the bottle of dragon blood. He knew that too much dragon blood was as bad as not enough. Once too much dragon blood is poured, the dragon bloodline would overtake the elf bloodline. It was not that turning dragon elves into elf dragons was bad, but Lin Xuan wanted a group of dragon elves that could farm!
The dragon elve fruit on the tree became plumper and plumper. Finally, the fruit ripened and the stem fell. The fruit burst open, and the dragon elve inside fell to the ground!
Dragon elves had also experienced the entire growth transformation from newborn to adulthood. Landing on the ground meant that they had matured, and this was one of the differences between the first batch of dragon elves compared to the others.
This was a method set up by the dragon clan’s experts to help the user overcome the initial difficulties as soon as possible. Once there was a good start, the subsequent development would be very easy.
After a simple count, there were a total of 12 dragon elves, but there were no males. Elves were the same as humans, and there were various categories within them. They were classified according to skin color, such as dark night elves, golden sun elves, green forest elves, and so on. One of the categories was whether there were male elves!
In order to satisfy his own selfish desires, Lin Xuan chose to have no male elves!
“Greetings, my Lord!”
The 12 beautiful and graceful dragon elves in chiffon and thin clothes bowed to Lin Xuan in unison. “Please give me a name, my Lord!”
Bestowing a name was an extremely important step. All dragons had their true names, which were determined by the heavens at birth. Their true names and true spirits would be recorded in the great Dao. This was an extremely important point to prove their identity.
The dragon elves were not considered pure dragons, but they had pure dragon blood in their bodies. Furthermore, before they were born, they had been programmed by the powerful dragons, and there was a small amount of dragon legacy in their souls. Therefore, once Lin Xuan gave them names, it would be equivalent to recognizing Lin Xuan as their master. It was the great Dao that they were going to have to climb for the rest of their lives!
“There are twelve of you, and you’re all from the same clan, so I’ll call you the Twelve Golden Hairpins!
“Now that you’re my subordinate, you should follow the tradition of Taixia Country by taking my surname, Lin, supplemented by your names.
Lin Xianling, Lin Yunling, Lin Nongling, and Lin Qiaoling were startled.
For a moment, Lin Xuan reveled in his successful naming.
The twelve dragon elves replied shyly. Lin Xuan came back to his senses and saw their thin clothes and trembling bodies. He couldn’t bear to tease them, but for the sake of not letting others mistake their master as a pervert, they had to bear with it!
It was improper for a man to provide the necessary clothes for women!
With a wave of his hand, Lin Xuan took out a large pile of items that he had bought back then from his personal space, including but not limited to the elf tribe’s spell inheritance, farming skills, purple jade grapes, dragontooth rice seeds, and so on. The dragontooth rice was a treasure that even the Dragon Clan treasured.
“You guys need to learn this in the near future. Take a look and plant these purple jade grapes as soon as possible. The dragontooth rice can wait a little longer. It’s better to enhance your farming skills before proceeding with this!”
After much hesitation, Lin Xuan kept the dragontooth rice seed. It was safer to keep it in his personal space than to leave it here.
The dragon elves were very talented mages. Not only did they inherit the dragon race’s magic talent, but they also had the elves’ super intelligence. They could learn spells at a glance, and after using it a few times, they can make fine adjustments to the spell, tweaking it in a unique direction.
Moreover, the elves were naturally attuned to nature. They didn’t need to be taught how to farm, and nature would tell them how to do it.
Lin Xuan sat under the elven divine tree and watched the Twelve Golden Hairpins work hard in the fields. They didn’t work hard with sweat pouring down their faces. On the contrary, they had a beautiful sense of elegance. He closed his eyes quietly as if he had understood something.
This was the Righteous Body of the Wudang Immortal. The core of it was the Daoist’s inaction. Lin Xuan had never understood it before. Inaction was nothing but inaction. It was only at this moment when he saw the Twelve Golden Hairpins farm that he had a slight understanding.
This bit of insight was not of any help to the improvement of his own combat strength, but it was of great help to his cultivation path. It was not just for his future path, but also for Lin Xuan to create his own cultivation method.
However, it was impossible for Lin Xuan to follow the Wudang Immortal and walk his path. He could only use it as a reference and use the source of Righteous Body as a template for reference.
For a time, he had a lot of insights. Lin Xuan did not stay to disturb them. Everything in the heart of the earth realm was handed over to them. There would be new dragon elves born later on, and when the time was right, the heart of the earth realm would become a resource point in Lin Xuan’s hands, paving the way for him to advance to earth-rank, or even beyond!
