Chapter 468: Planting A Pile of Corpses?
“Master!”
Dumbo howled, leaving an afterimage as it dashed towards the crater. Sprawled beside it, it stared at Jiang He as he lay beneath the hole and cried, “Master, you can’t die… what would happen to us if you die?”
Whoosh!
Beneath the hole, Jiang He abruptly opened his eyes and seethed, “Who is going to die, dog? Now fill this hole!”
The crater he punched out was three meters wide and around five meters deep, which was quite huge. However, Dumbo had mastered earth-type powers and was able to fill it rapidly with just a thought.
After it filled, Dumbo stared at the filled hole…
“Something seems to be missing.”
Muttering to himself, Dumbo directed his earth-type powers to move the dirt and soon piled a brand-new grave over where Jiang He lay.
At the same time, Trumbo got another stone plaque and scratched it, writing ‘Master Jiang He rests here.’
It then added in another line—’survived by cat, Trumbo.’
Staring at the crude tombstone, the appearance of another tombstone flashing in his mind just then… it realized that the tombstone was missing a photo.
But that was not difficult.
“Third Brother, you are good at drawing. Here, draw a picture of Master.”
Dumbo turned around to Third Brother.
He was faking tears, and opened his mouth from afar…
Hetui!
A breath of Blade Qi shot out.
It scratched away over the tombstone, and while it did, Fourth Brother was muttering, “One old codger owes me two eggs, I told him to return the eggs in three days but he said four… so I said buzz off…”
When the carving was done, a rather unique portrait was left on the plaque.
Enraged, Third Brother bellowed, “What are you squawking about while I’m drawing?!”
With that, he started fighting Fourth Brother.
Eldest Brother and Second Brother walked up, yelling, “Stop fighting…”
At the same time, Jiang He was left speechless beneath the grave.
As a million curses coursed through his mind, he could not help wanting to jump out of his grave and kill those little animals… but eventually repressed that impulse.
He carefully sensed the motion around him.
That unique energy had seeped into the soil all over the Farm, altering it.
Beside his ears, System notifications jingled—
[Ding!]
[Your Farm Area is expanding.]
[Ding!]
[The soil of your Farm is improving…]
[Ding…]
Around ten minutes later, another crisp System notification jingled—
[Ding!]
[Farm leveled up.]
[Congratulations, Host! You have improved your Farm to Lv7. Additional rewards: godly seed x1, soul treasure seed x1, System backpack +48, cultivation manual planting slots x5.]
At the same time, the unique energy rapidly faded.
Bang!
Jiang He jumped out of the ground then, and was fuming inwardly after feeling around his body.
Damn it.
He thought that there would be something different.
Even so, he was exactly the same as he had been when he entered.
Still, there were important things to do…
A vein was bulging on his forehead after he saw the ‘tombstone’ that was sent flying after he jumped out, he gave both Trumbo and Third Brother a kick, sending them several kilometers away… literally.
After all, Jiang He’s square-shaped Farm, which was 100 Mu at Lv6, was merely 260 meters in length and width. It had now expanded countless times at Lv7, its length and width reaching ten thousand meters.
Ignoring Trumbo and Third Brother, who were faking tears in a corner, Jiang He’s eyes fell on his System panel—
[Name: Jiang He]
[Cultivation: Immortal Path—full-fledged Grand Luo; Martial Arts—Void-tier)]
[Martial Techniques: Indestructible Diamond (Mastery), Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms (Mastery), Strengthened Nine Yang Technique (Mastery), Ninefold Thunderblade (Mastery), Dragon-Elephant Prajna (Mastery), Nine Heavenly Stars Body Formula (Seventh-Fold+), Three Thousand Calamities (Seventh-Fold+), Twenty-Three Swords (Mastery), Scripture of Chaos Thundersword (Mastery), Secret Art of Chaos Thundersword (Mastery).]
[Arrays: Nameless Sword Array, Great Nine Heavens Array of Dragon Sealing, Nine Heavens Thunderflame Array, Earthen Black Tortoise Array, Ten Thousand Phenomenon Array.]
[Owned Land: 10 square kilometers]
[Farm Level: 7 (EXP 0/50 million)]
[System Backpack: 84 boxes]
[System Shop: Unlocked]
[Farm Points: 186 billion]
“Hmmm…”
“There doesn’t seem to be much change aside from the area expansion and the soil quality change.”
Jiang He could not help complaining, but that was plenty enough—there was a limit to how many immortal crystals he could plant to earn Farm Points each time, and a million immortal crystals would have taken over ten days to plant.
Right now, his farm area had expanded over 1500 times, and he definitely could plant crops by a large batch to earn Farm Points.
Even if a crop only get him one Farm Point each time, the Farm Points accumulated over the expanded Farm would be sizeable after some time.
“Godly seed?”
“Soul treasure seed?”
Jiang He glanced at this System’s rewards, but he could not help being shocked when his gaze reached the cultivation manual slots.
What the hell!
He had one more cultivation manual planting slot when his Farm was still Lv6. However, though he was planning to plant a martial cultivation manual before he leveled up, hanging about the house and goofing around… made him forget about it.
“System, what about the remaining cultivation manual planting slot from before?”
[Added to number of new slots.]
The System replied simply and plainly.
Jiang He could not help breathing a long sigh at that…
“In other words, I have 6 more cultivation manual planting slots.”
“I could plant the martial cultivation manual as soon as possible… eh?”
Just as Jiang He thought about planting the martial cultivation manual, a weird sound could suddenly be heard, followed by two screams.
Jiang He turned to find Dumbo and Trumbo huddling together and trembling. The fur on their tails bristled, and their tails straightened like a stick.
Their teeth were chattering.
Dumbo’s teeth were chattering as it pointed a paw ahead and stammered, “Master… z-z-zomb… zombies!”
“…”
Jiang He was at a loss for words.
You two are full-fledged Mahayana and owned sets of premium-grade immortal items given by me. With your other acquired soul treasure, Violet Sky Thunder Talismans and the like that could kill even average True Immortals, you are still spooked by zombies?
Most importantly, where did those zombies come from?
It obviously was the bunch of Golden Immortals and True Immortals he had planted!
Crunch, crunch…
Meanwhile, the weird sounds continued as if bones were scraping together.
Then, the soil of the unorderly mass of graves wiggled. Beneath it, white skeleton palms with pieces of flesh sticking on it poked out.
In the other corner of the Farm, the graves of the 80 Golden Immortals and 360 True Immortals from the Hundred Races Alliance all exploded.
Corpses that were basically skeletons climbed out from beneath the dirt.
Jiang He was dumbstruck.
It looked like a scene out of a zombie movie!
