Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Cooking in a Small Stove

Translator: 549690339

The relationship between He Song and Zhao Lin evolved over time.

From a wealth of emotions when they first met.

To familiarity as they got to know each other more.

And eventually, to deep friendship that had them wishing they had met sooner.

Over those three years, the bond between He Song and Zhao Lin tightened, their interactions became more frequent.

Now, the two could be considered good friends.

Although He Song had yet to introduce Zhao Lin to his mini social circle with Wei Fan and other friends, he was already making preparations to do so.

Zhao Lin was friendly with Meng Guan and has now established a decent rapport with He Song himself.

To include him in his group of friends was something that He Song had to consider.

Today,

After practicing his Spirit Rain Skill for a half-hour on his managed spirit field, He Song headed towards the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.

Now that his cultivation was stable, it was time to claim a few more acres of the spirit field.

After all, his annual income in the future would be much higher than during his early Qi Refining days.

Soon, He Song was seen at the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.

Inside the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion,

Zhao Lin was on duty.

Hence, when He Song showed up, Zhao Lin, who was initially busy reading some miscellaneous books, instantly stood up.

“Congratulations on breaking through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and your remarkable progress in cultivation. You are now closer to Foundation Establishment!” In the blink of an eye, Zhao Lin congratulated him enthusiastically.

Although he was at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining himself, he saw He Song as a good friend. So, naturally, he wanted to congratulate him on his breakthrough.

Meanwhile, several spirit amulets quickly appeared in Zhao Lin’s hands. “Come, come, these are a few Thick Earth Amulets that I have personally

drawn. They’re not expensive, I’m just offering them to congratulate you.” Handing over the Thick Earth Amulets to He Song, a flash of joy passed through Zhao Lin’s eyes.

The breakthrough of his friend strengthened Zhao Lin’s own footing in the Immortal Pavilion.

If anything were to happen in the future, it would definitely aid him to some extent.

Just like Meng Guan.

After making friends with him, he was assigned to manage the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, a position with significant benefits.

So, in Zhao Lin’s eyes, exchanging benefits with friends often had its own perks. freeweb(n)ovel

“Many thanks to you, Mr. Zhao. I happen to be in need of such life-saving spirit amulets. Your generosity is much appreciated.” He Song did not decline and took the Thick Earth Amulets offered.

These Thick Earth Amulets that could save his life in critical situations, He Song would take them even if he did not need them.

Besides, Zhao Lin himself was an amulet Tao master; the Thick Earth Amulets he made would only cost their production price.

He Song never forgot the close call he had three years ago. So, he was constantly working on bolstering his survival skills. Only then could he survive in the brutal Cultivation World.

All spirit stones he earned in the past three years went into inscribing array patterns. As a result, he only had a few left. Now that he has an income, he can always use more.

As for owing a favor… well, he owed it to a good friend, he could return the favor when the right time came.

The He Song who had successfully advanced to the Qi-refining mid-stage was no longer the same as before.

He could gather ninety spirit stones a year now. A few Thick Earth Amulets were not a big favor to repay.

“You must be here for those two acres of the spirit field right?” Zhao Lin asked, feeling satisfied when he observed He Song accepting the Thick Earth Amulets.

He clearly approved of He Song’s straightforwardness.

Just as He Song was about to nod,

Zhao Lin suddenly shook his head at him with a smile.

“I’m afraid you’re a bit late. As soon as you mentioned that you were going into seclusive cultivation to break through to the mid-stage of Qi refining, I have already assigned those two acres of spirit field under your name. So now, the location of the two acres of spirit field is right here.”

Zhao Lin, speaking and winding his way around the point, fetched a map from the side and pointed out the location to He Song.

In the large map of spirit fields outside the Immortal Pavilion, all spirit fields were marked with names of their owners.

A surprised He Song noticed his own name in a quick scan.

Two regions, one big and one small, marked “He Song”.

But the two regions were connected to each other. The black line connecting them signified that the smaller region was added later.

He Song quickly noticed that there were many faqadeades for whom multiple regions were marked on the map.

For instance, he saw a name, Chen Zhou, written at two different places. But before He Song got a chance to inquire,

Zhao Lin’s finger had already directed towards He Song’s name on the map.

“Look here, the big area that was originally yours is your five-acre spirit field. The small added area is the newly assigned two acres of spirit field. Both spirit fields are adjacent to each other, so it saves you from having to shuttle back and forth to cast the Spirit Rain Skill twice a day.”

He Song was initially taken aback to hear Zhao Lin’s explanation, but he quickly understood.

There probably weren’t many spiritual plant farmers like him, who could add a new spirit field next to their original one.

Other mid-stage Qi Refining spiritual plant farmers often had their newly added spirit fields in another location.

Just like Chen Zhou that He Song just saw, he had two regions with his name on it.

As a result, these cultivators had to visit two different spirit field areas every day and cast the Spirit Rain Skill twice.

Casting the Spirit Rain Skill twice a day, each time half an hour, and also traveling a long distance to the other spirit field, the whole process was time-consuming.

But what about He Song?

He Song only had to cast the Spirit Rain Skill once at his own spirit field location. Although the area was slightly larger, he didn’t need to travel around, and it only took half an hour.

Comparatively, cultivators like He Song, with his two spirit fields next to each other, definitely had it better than those who had to visit two separate spirit fields and cast the Spirit Rain Skill twice a day.

“I thank you, my friend!” He Song felt a warmth in his heart at Zhao Lin’s blatant preferential treatment and his impression of him also rose.

Zhao Lin not only assigned the additional two acres of spirit field to He Song when he went for his breakthrough, helping him to get his annual salary quicker,

But he also forcefully combined He Song’s two spirit fields together, allowing him to earn more without spending much time.

In doing so, it seemed like Zhao Lin had done everything he possibly could for He Song.

Whether it was the early assignment of the spirit field,

Or forcibly combining the two spirit fields together,

Both made He Song have a new understanding of Zhao Lin, and the power dynamics of the Cultivation World.

So, power in the Cultivation World could be used like this.

It turns out that Zhao Lin indeed had connections. If needs arise, he could genuinely make things easier for He Song.

“You don’t need to thank me. What’s the use of these words between us? It’s a small matter. As long as I am in this Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, I will handle everything perfectly for you.”

In response to He Song’s gratitude, Zhao Lin shook his hand nonchalantly, downplaying the favor as if it were not valuable.
