315 Qingqiu’s Advancement
This opening match was undoubtedly exciting. The audience on stage, whether they could understand it or not, were all clapping with all their might.
On the high platform, many directors of major departments in Taixia Country had arrived. Besides supporting the event, they were also looking for suitable personnel to join them and fill in new blood for their departments.
There was no doubt that Lin Xuan and Jiang Bo’s performance was flawless. Although it was obvious that they had hidden many things about themselves, the combat power that they had just displayed was enough to make the people in charge happy.
It was a pity that Jiang Bo had already been booked by a big shot in Nanjiang to intern as soon as he graduated from high school. Although they weren’t afraid of that big shot, the Western Capital had always been in contact with Nanjiang.
“Forget it, we don’t need Jiang Bo. There’s still Lin Xuan.”
“We can’t afford to offend either.”
“You’re being so tactful. As for Lin Xuan, let’s just forget about it. The Blacksky Alliance has spoken, and they’re eyeing him.”
“Blacksky Alliance? Who said that? Why didn’t I receive any news?”
“The two immortals from Wudang Mountain and the Blue Sea Palace said so!”
“That’s amazing. What about Li Rui? Is he also booked?”
“His teacher is one of the national dragons, and he himself has already passed the first round of the selection.”
“Whoa, they’re not leaving anyone behind. Then why are we here?”
“We’re here to watch a show!”
“Aren’t there any other potential candidates? If no one wants them, we can take them!”
“What a beautiful thought.”
Several high-ranking officials were sitting upright on the high platform, so no one could hear their private voice transmission. Di Yi, the principal, was also smiling, but he sighed silently in his heart. The Blacksky Alliance? It was quite appropriate for Lin Xuan!
Lin Xuan walked down the arena, took his things, and left. His battle for the day had ended, and he was no longer needed. It was a good time to go back and soak in the medicinal bath and comprehend the Thunder Dao Stone. However, he had used quite a lot these days, and now that he was almost out, it was time to replenish his stock.
However, there was one more thing that needed to be dealt with now, and that was Qingqiu’s advancement.
Lin Zhenxing’s luminous dragon had entered the mystic-rank a few months ago, but Qingqiu with more potential was still in the yellow-rank. Other than Lin Xuan wanting it to have a stronger foundation, he was also waiting for the cultivation of green dragontooth rice. Now, it was finally time to harvest it.
When he returned home, Lin Xuan could not wait to enter the earth realm. Under the elven divine tree, a wooden house had already been built. It looked like it was directly grown from Twelve Golden Hairpins. This was also the type of wooden house that Lin Xuan had bought back then.
There were a total of 100 seeds of the green dragontooth rice, and Lin Xuan regarded them as the most important. The main reason was that the dragon race valued them a lot. Since they valued them so much, they must be extremely precious. Since Lin Xuan valued them, the Twelve Golden Hairpins valued them too. They took good care of them, and none of the 100 seeds died.
As he looked at the plump grains hanging on each wheat head, a fragrance wafted out from within. The dragon blood in Lin Xuan’s body surged, and an inexplicable appetite surged in his stomach. He wanted to eat his fill too!
Qingqiu was dozing off beside the dragontooth rice field. Before sending him in, Lin Xuan told him seriously that before the dragontooth rice ripened, he definitely could not eat it. He was very obedient and did not touch it at all, but it was sad that he could not eat it. He could still smell it, right?
A few days ago, Lin Xuan went to The Beekeeper’s Union and asked for a box of gathering bees. He wanted to use the fragrance of the dragontooth rice to make honey. Then, he asked Su Tian to make pastries for Qingqiu. Today was the first taste test for the pasty.
Qingqiu was lying on the ridge of the field and smacked his mouth. Suddenly, a piece of soft and sticky pastry was stuffed into its mouth. It was so fragrant and delicious.
He opened his eyes and saw Lin Xuan in front of him. Qingqiu immediately pounced on him and started crying.
“Alright, alright, they’re all ripe and ready to be harvested. You can also advance to mystic-rank now!”
He let the Twelve Golden Hairpins harvest the rest of the dragontooth rice, leaving the seeds behind. As for the rest, he rubbed off the surface, revealing the crystal-like rice flesh inside. A grain of rice was the size of a fist. The spirit concentration in this place was not high enough. Otherwise, it would be the size of a Dragon’s Tooth.
In the next second, Qingqiu advanced to the mystic-rank, and his true body began to change. All kinds of bloodline techniques began to be derived. The breakthrough was not something that could be done in an instant, but it took the accumulation of years. It was just that Lin Xuan had told Qingqiu to hold back the last step before, and now that he had let go, the advancement was just a matter of nature.
Qingqiu’s body sent a distress signal to Lin Xuan’s consciousness, and he was in urgent need of nutrients. If it was a dragon from another world who advanced, it would enter a deep sleep at this time and slowly absorb the free spiritual energy to supplement itself, extending the transformation of the advancement to 10 to 20 years.
However, Lin Xuan had green dragontooth rice, which was the best food to supplement Qingqiu’s energy.
Dragontooth rice wasn’t normal rice. It was more like a fruit that could be eaten directly. Qingqiu bit down and the rice juice splattered. The fragrance spread out and even Lin Xuan was attracted to the smell.
Qingqiu happily bit down. Lin Xuan couldn’t resist the temptation and picked up a piece, swallowing it in one gulp. Not only was it beneficial for the azure dragon bloodline, but it also contained a huge amount of food essence.
Lin Xianling’s body swayed as she walked toward Lin Xuan. She held a cup of purple wine in her hands. This was a top-grade wine made from purple jade grapes. Lin Xuan took a small sip, and the taste was sweet and clear. It was indeed a top-grade wine!
This was another special product produced by the earth realm. He should be able to sell it for a good price.
Previously, Lin Xuan sold a batch of purple jade grapes to the Zhu family and received a lot of money. However, after thinking about it, he still made a loss. He could only make a bit of money by being a raw material supplier, and he could make a lot of profits by creating brand products. Therefore, he had the idea of letting the Twelve Golden Hairpins develop new products. He didn’t expect them to have finished products so soon.
Other than the purple jade grapes, Lin Xuan also planted many spiritual plants and magic medicines inside. Some of them did not need to be harvested when they ripened. As for those magic medicines that were better the longer they grew, they were left to slowly grow. Lin Xuan did not lack money right now.
After eating dozens of dragontooth rice, Qingqiu fell into a deep sleep. It wasn’t because it didn’t have any nutrients, but because it had indigestion and was too full!
