I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 580 - 69: The Birth of the Celestial Spirit Root, the Shadow Crocodile’s Final Move

Afternoon.

Sword Casting Manor.

Even underground, the entire manor was bathed in warm, bright sunlight, with blooming flowers and gushing mountain springs, truly resembling a paradise on earth.

Ning Zheng was inspecting the research progress on the Celestial Grade Human God Flower when he suddenly saw a few blacksmith apprentices rushing over.

After Jiucai Rong explained the general plan,

Ning Zheng looked a bit odd, "You want our Manor Master to cooperate with you?"

"Yes."

Jiucai Rong felt somewhat awkward too, "That overseas student, seems to have some brains, not needing the main body to come over..."

"We can also use other means to trick the main body out, but luring him out using the Xi Rong identity is both the quickest and foolproof."

"Once we've dealt with him, we can reach the entire race!"

"This is a powerful merfolk race, second only to the Divine Beasts... reputed to be the most beautiful race of the Sea Race, with both male and female consorts emerging in endless successions throughout history."

"The most crucial part is, every individual in their race is born with an Upper Grade Spiritual Root, and they have tens of thousands of clan members... that's an enormous number!"

Jiucai Rong's eyes turned red as he said this!

Successfully dealing with the other party would indeed bring great fortune.

Tens of thousands of Upper Grade Spiritual Roots seem like a lot, very strong.

But in reality, it's only moderately strong.

Considering the vast area of the Nine-State and Four Seas, a race with only tens of thousands of members is practically on the brink of extinction!

But the Sea Race is structured in this way, where a high-tier race has tens of thousands, while the ones that can reproduce more have around a hundred thousand members.

Unlike the Human Race, where even a single city can have billions...

But the Human Race reproduces well because they are born with no inherent Spiritual Roots or attributes, with the energy contained in their childhood bodies being minimal, all born as Mortal Bodies.

Moreover, the tens of thousands of Upper Grade Spiritual Roots among the Sea Race don't represent tens of thousands of Two-Phase Realm cultivators.

Quality is quality, and realm is realm.

A genius comprises both [Perception Talent] + [Spiritual Root Quality].

Of 100 Human Race members with Upper Grade Spiritual Roots, typically, unless they fall, 90 can reach the Two-Phase Realm.

Because the Human Race has a priori quality... confirming you as a highly perceptive genius before bestowing a precious Upper Grade Spiritual Root upon you.

The quality matches the perception, belonging to the double-strength category.

And what about 100 Upper Grade Spiritual Root possessors among the Sea Race?

Giving an Upper Grade Spiritual Root randomly to a hundred creatures, how many geniuses could you get?

Most would be mediocrities.

Even if they are geniuses with Upper Grade Spiritual Roots, lacking perception and intelligence, they can't get very far.

It seems that although the other side possesses tens of thousands of Upper Grade Spiritual Roots, those breaking through to the Two-Phase Realm are relatively few.

"What's the specific plan?"

Ning Zheng said:

"Although the Manor Master is indeed looking forward to the combat power of a Two-Phase Realm being, maintaining the logic from when alive will actively support the manor's development... as long as the plan's success rate is high."

Jiucai Rong scratched his head, "We aren't directly meeting him; instead, we reveal certain clues as if by accident, allowing him to delightfully discover where Xi Rong might be hiding..."

"Of course, we will perfect all the details of the plan, using Yan Shuangying to approach him, understanding his personality, behavioral logic... to establish a targeted enticement scheme."

"Their family's elders would never imagine that this wealthy second generation, who admires and idolizes foreigners, would become the source of their calamity."

"I understand. If the plan is feasible..." Ning Zheng thought for a moment, nodding anyway, "I will inform the Manor Master."

"Thank you, master." Jiucai Rong happily left.

Ning Zheng sighed.

He felt that he had sacrificed quite a lot for these blacksmith apprentices.

That guy was clearly a fervent fan of a Xi Rong statue.

They acquired a Two-Phase Realm cultivator... but what he lost was +2 from an ardent fan every day!

How could he turn against his own fans?

Ning Zheng turned back, looking at the mudworker in front, "Now that the matter is settled, continue with what you were saying."

"Yes, master."

The mudworker continued, "Our Upper Grade Human God Flower is ready to advance, hence inviting the master to witness the ceremony."

Their eyes were sparkling like stars in the sky, with excitement almost overflowing.

Were they coming to witness the ceremony?

They were hoping to come and gain some luck buffs!

Ning Zheng wasn't sluggish; an image of the ethereal Qi Fortune Gambling Table emerged in his mind, displaying a line of text after the transaction was completed.

[Celestial Grade Human God Flower: 8 million Qi Fortune Value]

The number jumped out.

Ning Zheng exclaimed at this good fellow.

The Spiritual Root of this Human God was indeed valuable!

Just a Celestial Grade Spiritual Root, and it's a Human God's... it was indeed worth eight million, a fair price, even feeling a bit cheap.

After all, previously deciphering the Human God's abilities could cost billions in Qi Fortune Value...

Yet those eight million were merely the entry fee for the Human God's ability, a Divine Technique seed.

Even such a cheap Celestial Spirit Root made Ning Zheng feel his resources were tight:

[Current Qi Fortune Value: 5.98 million]

Now was nothing like the days when a few thousand to tens of thousands of Qi Fortune Value were a concern, the expenditure was getting higher.

These were the quotas accumulated over half a month after establishing the Bone Demon Sect.

And this was already quite a sum!

Because the Sword Fairy was stirring up popularity again, the Pseudo-human Calamity appearing, causing the populace to panic and frantically join "Pinduoduo," take a slice, in hopes of reviving Xi Rong Saint who died saving the Human Race.

The Sword Fairy's lines were like this:

"The Pseudo-human Calamity has arrived, please lend your support to the revival of Xi Rong, who died for the people of the world; the people of the world should also unite to welcome his return."

Tricking these people into trading their Qi Fortune Value, frantically -2-2.

Ning Zheng felt a deep sense of guilt.

Our people are simple and honest!

Thus, the original daily 100,000 Qi Fortune Value, plus the worship of the statue bringing 200,000 to 300,000 daily, had accumulated over fifteen days to reach this number.

"Only three or four days left, I can wait."

Ning Zheng sighed emotionally.

Fortunately, he hadn't rushed to elevate his realm.

Otherwise.

1,000,000 for the Second Phase.

Another 1,000,000 for the Two-Phase Cycle, directly achieving Great Perfection in the Two-Phase Realm!

This is all thanks to the Xi Rong Kingdom established by the little blacksmiths, the title of the Nine-State's First Saint, and the Qi Fortune Value gained allowed the building of a Minor Two-Phase Realm with ease!

Next, Ning Zheng continued cultivating.

Cycling every day.

Chatting with Ning Jiaojiao, Sun Moon Su Yuniang, visiting the prison occasionally, checking the progress of the blacksmiths on the mountain, and observing the tortured Pseudo-humans in the laboratory.

Then he went to Xinyi State City +2+2.

These recent days have been very happy and fulfilling.

Meanwhile, the outside world was also turbulent.

The Pseudo-humans seemed to be scared after being beaten by them, no longer sent gifts down from the heavens here, afraid of being thrown into the Forging Furnace, and instead of attacking for revenge, they went to intrigue an Ocean Race sect in the Two-Phase Realm.

It seemed to be a rare sponge-like Demon Race.

Nearly overturned the entire sect, possessed most of the cultivators, if it wasn't for the support from other forces arriving with a bunch of Dharma Aspects in the Two-Phase Realm, and jointly suppressing them, major problems would have arisen!

This Two-Phase Realm sect's fall shocked the entire Ocean Race, with various threat theories emerging endlessly.

Even in Ning Zheng's sect, the streets, teahouses, and every region people discussed it, some even thought their Bone Demon Sect might be next.

After all.

They offended the Pseudo-humans too badly here!

And this newly emerging Two-Phase Realm sect, with only one cultivator in the Two-Phase Realm... Even numerous established Two-Phase Realm sects and the ancestral tombs in the One Heart Realm had fallen, theirs might truly be in danger.

This caused some small Three Flowers forces in the city to start fleeing.

Including the City Lord of Thorn Shell City.

At this time.

The Thorn Shell Race people hesitated:

"Chieftain, do we really have to run? Life here is good, I'm used to this place, I don't want to go back to Pure Water City and smell other passersby."

Some tribe members hesitated: "Yes, although we haven't settled in One Peak, we have the Kissing Fish Race as old acquaintances, we are doing well here, if we continue to develop, there is a possibility of settling on a mountain peak, becoming part of the Sect Elder Faction."

The City Lord of Thorn Shell City said: "We arrived at the wrong time, too late, we gain nothing here, and might even be broken... Better to take this chance to escape."

"I was wrong once before, but this time I should be right."

He looked complexly at the Bone Demon Sect's gate behind him.

"I cannot gamble the family's heritage on those ethereal fortunes, it's irresponsible for the family; we must focus on stability!"

"Today we say farewell, not knowing what the future holds."

With that, they raised Shell City, leaving the sect.

Many seafolk like him also took the opportunity to leave these few days.

A powerful and ancient Two-Phase Realm sect being broken had a huge blow to everyone's confidence!

Even.

Holding darker thoughts.

Possibly some Two-Phase Realm sects had upper management secretly composed of Pseudo-humans, long infiltrated... Can you still expect them to use those Magical Artifacts to check for Pseudo-humans within the sect?

All just for show.

With the upper management's fall, not examining, unknown how many are hiding within the city.

"Let them go." When Ning Zheng received this news, he wasn't concerned, coming and going, it's very normal.

However, that Two-Phase Realm handsome Mermaid, these days, seemed to genuinely open up to Yan Shuangying and others.

As if finding kindred spirits.

"Almost time, the net can be drawn." Jiucai Rong continued to lay out his plans.

Ning Zheng similarly didn't mind how Jiucai Rong's plan managed to lure them out.

His attention these days was focused on Human God Flower.

Adding points

-8,000,000 Qi Fortune Value!

A sum that made Ning Zheng's heart ache heavily dropped down.

The entire Upper Grade Human God Flower started evolving, mutating inside the glass dome, in a few days, the Celestial Grade Spiritual Root will be completely formed.

And the Celestial Grade Line-type Pseudo-human Spiritual Root was also being cultivated simultaneously.

"Almost there, Human God, Pseudo-human... Yang Spirit Root retrofusion will form my Yang Attribute foundation."

Ning Zheng looked forward with anticipation.

He felt when his Spiritual Root undergoes qualitative change, there will be a groundbreaking transformation at the Immortal Spirit Root stage.

Just then, Jiucai Rong finally sent information:

"Sir, the net has started to be drawn; that detective truly believes he is a master detective... thinks he found clues and is excitedly tracking down Xi Rong's true body."

"His greatest regret in life will be coming here to investigate; his self-assured detective skills will lead him to death."

Ning Zheng hung up the Communication Token, understanding clearly.

It seems his Shadow Crocodile Spiritual Root will have its last activity in life, declaring the formal cease of existence for this root.

"Time to give Xi Rong's Ocean Race followers a solemn farewell with the Shadow Crocodile."
