Chapter 72 Delivering the Commission (Plus)
Chapter 72 Delivery of the commission (plus more)
After Xu Chuniang filled the pit, and then on the newly filled soil, sprinkled from a layer of soil that was the same color as the house, and continued to step on it.
These soils are from the surrounding uniform over, after laying this layer of soil, you can no longer see what is different inside the house.
After finishing her work and taking a look at the room, Xu Chuniang nodded with satisfaction.
The originally abundant spiritual energy in the earth house had been lost due to the excavation of the spiritual soil.
When another period of time passed, it would completely dissipate into the heavens and earth.
After checking once more and seeing that there was nothing missing, Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, withdrew the shielding mode of the formation, left the spiritual field, and walked towards the peak.
Steward Sun was counting the spirit rice, and when he saw Xu Chuniang arrive, a smile appeared on his face.
“Girl Xu, how was the harvest this time?”
“Same as always.”
Xu Chuniang took out two bags of long-prepared spirit rice.
Steward Sun wasn’t surprised, other than those two times in the first year when she surrendered her spiritual rice, every time this girl paid spiritual rice, it was the unchanging 400 pounds.
He didn’t believe that she had really only harvested this much.
However, those extra spiritual rice is part of the welfare, as long as the disciples don’t violate the rules of the door and take it to sell, how to deal with it.
After paying for the spiritual rice, Xu Chuniang took out the formation talisman and returned the spiritual weapon that collected the spiritual rice.
Steward Sun received the items and said with pity while inspecting them.
“Do you really not intend to farm again? You’re very talented in spirit planting, and your character is calm, if you have an idea, I’ll get you a better piece of spirit field!”
Frankly speaking, he kinda liked disciples like Xu Chuniang, with a low-key personality that didn’t cause trouble, and a single-mindedness to take care of the spiritual fields, basically accomplishing the goal of surrendering every time.
If Spirit Plant Peak could have more disciples who were this kind of trouble-free, how much less worry could he have?
Xu Chuniang shook her head, “These five years have also saved quite a few contribution points, so I won’t be farming for a while.”
“Alright, when your contribution points run out and you still want to farm, you must come to Spirit Plant Peak!”
Steward Sun checked that there was no mistake and put the things away, looking at Xu Chuniang with a rather emotional look.
This girl was only at the third level of qi cultivation when she first arrived, a skinny and small one, at a glance, she couldn’t take the pain, and wasn’t the material to be a Spirit Planter.
But who would have thought that she had stayed down in the Spiritual Plant Peak, and the spiritual fields were also well served?
It seems that in the future, you can’t underestimate female cultivators.
Xu Chuniang nodded with a smile, bid farewell to Steward Sun, and walked towards the bottom of the mountain.
Looking at the patchwork of spirit fields on both sides of the mountain road, Xu Chuniang’s heart was slightly emotional, if nothing else, this might be the last time she appeared in Spirit Plant Peak.
Thinking back to these five years of calm and busy life, every day was very fulfilling, and every day was progressing.
In the world’s evil and dangerous cultivation world, such peaceful days were rare, and it was also the easiest to call for indulgence and forget one’s beginnings.
Xu Chuniang never forgot her goal.
Life in Spirit Plant Peak was wonderful, but a closed-door drudgery would only make one’s immortal path narrower and narrower.
This was also the reason why, Spirit Plantation Fellows were generally not strong in battle, because within their hearts, they lacked that ruthlessness of the Great Dao Struggle.
After cultivating for five years, it was time to go and see the outside world, and in the meantime, test what he had gained in these five years.
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, when she finished handing in her commissioned tasks and then went to the Hall of Miscellaneous Affairs to pay her contribution points for the year, she would be able to do what she really wanted to do.
Inside the Hall of Commissions, after Xu Chuniang submitted her mission, she found that forty contribution points had been added to her token, a full ten points more than in previous years.
Seeing her puzzlement, the black-faced steward spoke up and explained, ”For five consecutive years, you’ve completed the commission every year, and these extra ten points were issued to you as a reward.
On the contrary, if you have not completed the commission for several consecutive years, you will be penalized accordingly by deducting a certain amount of contribution points.” Only then did Xu Chuniang realize that there was an extra reward for completing the commission well.
Ten contribution points wasn’t a lot, after all, she had only earned eighteen contribution points after deducting the contribution points paid by the sect for a year of farming.
After coming out of the commission hall, Xu Chuniang went back to the miscellaneous affairs hall.
Zhang Donglai took the token handed over by Xu Chuniang, deducted the amount paid, and when he saw the remaining contribution points displayed on it, his eyelids jumped heavily!
A full hundred contribution points!
In other words, in these five years, the ugly girl had completed the sect commissions on time and in accordance with the amount every year, thus earning the reward of ten contribution points.
Although in Zhang Donglai’s eyes, ten points of contribution was nothing at all, but what cultivation level was he and what cultivation level was she?
Moreover, this was merely the ugly girl taking up, the first commissioned task.
Not to mention, she had still successfully completed the commission with a lower cultivation level.
Even Zhang Donglai himself had suffered a lot and taken many detours when doing his first commission in his life.
What gave him a little comfort was that the ugly girl’s cultivation level, so far, was still stuck at the fourth level of Qi Practicing.
He thought that she had been busy farming for the past few years and had no time to cultivate.
Thinking of this, Zhang Donglai’s eyes revealed mockery and contempt, stupid is stupid, wasting the time for cultivation for nothing.
What’s the use of tending the spiritual fields even better.
Like that Sun Er Yong, who had dealt with spirit fields for his entire life, but his cultivation had stopped at the eighth level of qi cultivation, and he was the bottom of the list amongst all Outer Sect Stewards!
“What an excellent spirit planting husband ah, do a good job, the future is bright.”
Hearing Zhang Donglai’s conspiratorial voice, Xu Chuniang hooked her lips and smiled, pretending not to understand the sarcasm in his words, “Then I’ll take your good advice.”
After saying that, she put away the token and turned around.
This light-hearted attitude exasperated Zhang Donglai to the point of tilting his back.
His eyes were sinister as he stared at Xu Chuniang’s departing direction, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xu Chunniang did not care about everything behind her, and after leaving the Hall of Miscellaneous Affairs, she walked in the direction of the cave she remembered while calculating what she was going to do next.
In these five years, she had been farming and practicing hard at Spirit Plant Peak, and hadn’t really returned.
It was also unknown if the cave was intact and if it had been occupied by anyone else.
Following the path from her memory, Xu Chuniang walked into a dense mountain forest.
Five years had passed, and the trees in the mountain forest had flourished a lot, but the terrain hadn’t changed much, and she easily found the location of the cave.
Because no one had been there for a long time, the entrance of the cave was filled with weeds and vines.
Xu Chuniang pushed these plants aside and jumped in sideways, her feet tapping twice on the mountain wall, easily entering the cave.
In the cave, there were originally two pieces of spiritual soil, rich in spiritual qi, but five years had passed, the spiritual qi in the spiritual soil had passed most of the time, and the remaining less than 20%.
It was believed that it wouldn’t take long for them to completely lose their spiritual qi and become ordinary with the surrounding soil.
Xu Chuniang only glanced at the two pieces of spirit soil before withdrawing her gaze.
There were still ten pieces of spirit soil in her storage bag, and she wasn’t in a hurry to use them now, so let’s scrap them.
What she was most concerned about now was her own cultivation.
Ever since a year ago, when her cultivation reached the peak of the sixth level of qi cultivation, no matter how much Xu Chuniang cultivated, there was no more increase of aura in her body.
She knew in her heart that she had reached the second “bottleneck” of the Qi Practicing Stage.
If life doesn’t go your way, you have to be brave and move forward. Wednesday is very hard, to give you more, cheers!
The heroine’s farming career has come to an end, and she is about to start a new journey.
