Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing
Chapter 6: Medicine Garden Dominates, Road to Counterattack
Xiao Bei was flipping through the "Secret Book of Spiritual Herb Cultivation" and his eyes were fixed on the "Bi Luo Huang Quan Flower".
The name sounds very childish, but the effect is really tempting - it is said to be able to bring the dead back to life.
However, the cultivation conditions are also quite harsh, requiring "Nine Nether Cold Spring" and "Fiery Yang Soil".
Where can I find this?
Wait, system!
Xiao Bei's idea moved, and he opened the system panel and searched for keywords.
Really!
The Nine Nether Cold Spring and the Blazing Sun Soil are both in the sect's forbidden area...
Forbidden place?
excuse me!
Farewell!
Let’s start with the simple Linglan grass.
Although this Linglan grass is not a magical herb, it is also an important material for refining certain basic elixirs. It is also of moderate difficulty to cultivate and is suitable for practice.
Xiao Bei did what he said and ran to the medicine field the next day and started tinkering with it.
He followed the methods in the secret book, carefully selected the soil, controlled the water and light, and even used the "spiritual liquid" exchanged from the system.
"What's this kid doing again?" Several old errand disciples looked at Xiao Bei's actions and shook their heads.
"This Linglan grass is very delicate. How can it be so easy to grow? I think he is just wasting his time."
"Exactly. A rookie who just got started really thinks he's some kind of spiritual plant master?"
"Leave him alone, let him struggle. Once he fails, he'll behave himself."
Xiao Bei turned a deaf ear to these rumors and continued to do as he pleased.
Are you kidding? I’m a man blessed by the system!
How can a mere Linglan grass defeat me?
As time passed, Xiao Bei's Linglan grass grew well and was about to mature.
"Oh my god! Is this kid really grown?" The old errand disciples were stunned and couldn't believe their eyes.
"How is this possible? What method did he use?"
"Could it be...he is some hidden boss?"
At this moment, Sun Bo came over and saw the thriving Linglan grass. He was also surprised: "Xiao Bei, you did a great job! The quality of this Linglan grass is better than the ones I planted before!"
Xiao Bei smiled modestly: "Uncle Sun, you are too kind. I just did it according to the method in the secret book."
Sun Bo patted Xiao Bei on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you have a bright future! Work hard, I'm optimistic about you!"
When the news spread, the entire medicine garden was in an uproar.
Xiao Bei also became famous because of this and became a "big shot" in the medicine garden.
However, at this moment, a cold voice sounded in the corner: "Humph, it's just bad luck..." Lin Hu stared at Xiao Bei with a sinister look, and his fists were clenched so hard that they made a clattering sound.
Lin Hu felt uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly when he saw Xiao Bei being praised by Sun Bo.
Why?
Just because he's lucky?
Why should he, a newbie, steal his limelight?
"Hmph, just wait and see!" Lin Hu said in a low voice with gritted teeth.
That night, Lin Hu sneaked into the medicine garden.
In his hand, he held a small bag of "Soul-Eating Bugs" that he had caught from the back mountain. These bugs specialized in eating the roots and rhizomes of spiritual herbs and could be called spiritual plant killers.
He smiled sinisterly and scattered the insects around the Linglan grass that Xiao Bei had carefully cultivated.
"Now let's see how arrogant you can be!"
The next morning, Xiao Bei came to the medicine garden as usual to check the growth of the Linglan grass.
However, the scene before him shocked him.
The originally green and upright Linglan grass is now drooping, with yellow spots appearing on the edges of its leaves.
"What's going on?!" Xiao Bei quickly squatted down and took a closer look, and soon found the culprit - the soul-eating insect!
"Damn it! Who did it?!" Xiao Bei was furious. These Linglan grasses were cultivated by him with great effort. They were about to mature, but were secretly destroyed by someone. How could he swallow this!
The errand disciples around saw this scene and gathered around.
"Hey, Xiao Bei, what happened to your Linglan grass?"
"Are you sick?"
"Looks like a bug bite to me."
Lin Hu also pretended to squeeze into the crowd and asked with a look of "concern": "Xiao Bei, what's wrong with you? How did the Linglan grass become like this? Is it because of your planting method?"
Xiao Bei suppressed the anger in his heart and glanced at Lin Hu coldly. He knew that Lin Hu must be involved in this matter.
"Lin Hu, stop pretending to be sympathetic here!" Xiao Bei said in a cold tone, "I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter. Whoever did it will pay the price!"
Lin Hu's heart trembled, but he pretended to be innocent on the surface: "Xiao Bei, what do you mean by this? I came here out of kindness to care about you, how could you wrongly accuse me like this?"
"You know whether you have been wronged or not!" Xiao Bei said coldly, turned around and left the medicine garden.
He must find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise not only will all his previous efforts be wasted, but he will also be severely punished.
After returning to his residence, Xiao Bei anxiously flipped through the "Secret Book of Spiritual Herb Cultivation", but he still couldn't find a way to deal with the soul-eating insects.
"Is there really no other way..." Xiao Bei muttered to himself. Suddenly, he raised his head abruptly, a gleam in his eyes, "System!"
Xiao Bei immediately opened the system mall and searched for "natural enemy of soul-eating insects".
Sure enough, it really exists!
A little creature called "seven-colored ladybug" is the nemesis of the soul-eating insect.
Xiao Bei exchanged a batch without hesitation and secretly put it into the medicine garden.
The next day, Lin Hu ran to the medicine garden early in the morning, waiting to see Xiao Bei make a fool of himself.
However, he was dumbfounded.
The Linglan grass, which was originally dying, miraculously recovered and grew more vigorously than before.
What shocked him even more was that all the soul-eating insects had disappeared!
"This...how is this possible?!" Lin Hu widened his eyes, unable to believe what he saw.
At this time, Xiao Bei walked over slowly, with a sneer on his face: "Surprised? Excited?"
Lin Hu's face turned pale, he knew he was in trouble this time.
"You...what on earth did you do?!"
Xiao Bei didn't answer. Instead, he took out a colorful ladybug from his arms and waved it in front of Lin Hu: "Do you know this little guy?"
Of course Lin Hu didn't recognize it. He just thought that the insect looked fancy and harmless.
"This is the natural enemy of the Soul Devouring Insect—the Colorful Ladybug." Xiao Bei said calmly, "Well, now you know where your Soul Devouring Insect went?"
Lin Hu was suddenly struck by lightning and his face turned pale.
He never thought that Xiao Bei had this skill.
"You...how do you know all this?!"
"The secret of heaven cannot be revealed." Xiao Bei smiled mysteriously, "However, I can tell you one thing, that is - you are finished!"
Xiao Bei told Sun Bo and Zhao Lao about Lin Hu and others secretly destroying the Linglan grass.
Sun Bo and Zhao Lao were furious and immediately decided to severely punish Lin Hu and others.
Lin Hu was expelled from the medicine garden, and the other disciples who participated in the chores were demoted to the most difficult chores, responsible for cleaning the toilets.
As for Xiao Bei, because of this incident, he became a core figure among the errand disciples in the medicine garden. Even Sun Bo looked at him with admiration and taught him some techniques of cultivating spiritual plants from time to time.
"Xiao Bei, I see that you have an amazing talent and are a good material for cultivating immortality..." Sun Bo stroked his beard and said meaningfully.
Xiao Bei became a celebrity in the medicine garden overnight. His treatment was like rocketing!
Those old servants who used to ignore him now all came forward to call him "Brother Xiao" or "Master Xiao" with such enthusiasm.
Even Lin Hu, who usually looks down on others, now has to keep his tail between his legs and take a detour when he sees Xiao Bei.
"Brother Xiao, do you think my spiritual herbs are lacking water?" A errand disciple carefully held a pot of wilted spiritual herbs and asked Xiao Bei for advice.
Xiao Bei glanced at it and said calmly, "Lack of water? I think you're stupid! This is clearly a lack of fertility, do you understand? Go back and read the "Basics of Spiritual Herb Cultivation" carefully, and stop messing around all day!"
The disciple was so embarrassed by Xiao Bei's retort that he blushed, but he didn't dare to refute and left in shame.
"Master Xiao, you are so amazing! The spiritual herbs I planted never grow up. Can you give me some advice?" another disciple asked with admiration.
Xiao Bei waved his hand and said, "Give you some pointers? Sure, help me turn over this piece of land first!"
For a time, Xiao Bei became a "hot commodity" in the medicine garden, and the menial disciples all rushed to work for him, hoping to get his guidance.
Xiao Bei was also happy to have some free time. While enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention, he was also thinking about how to use the system to do something bigger.
With the improvement of status, there are naturally more opportunities to access resources for cultivating immortals.
In the past, he could only access some ordinary spiritual herbs, but now, some precious spiritual herb seeds also began to appear in his field of vision.
"Hey, system, look at what good stuff this is!" Xiao Bei secretly took out a "Purple Yang Ginseng" seed from the pharmacy. This is an important material for refining the foundation-building pill and is priceless!
The system panel immediately displayed information about the Purple Yang Ginseng: a rare spiritual medicine, rich in spiritual energy, which can be used to refine foundation-building pills and increase the success rate of foundation-building...
"Foundation Building Pill? Increase the success rate of foundation building?" Xiao Bei's eyes lit up, "Looks like I have to study how to grow this thing!"
With the seeds of Ziyang ginseng, Xiao Bei was full of energy. In addition to completing the tasks in the medicine garden every day, he spent the rest of his time studying how to cultivate Ziyang ginseng.
He consulted ancient books, asked Sun Bo for advice, and even secretly used the system to exchange for some high-grade fertilizers and spiritual liquids. He really put a lot of effort into it.
Hard work pays off. Under Xiao Bei's careful care, the seeds of Ziyang ginseng finally sprouted!
Looking at the tender green sprouts, Xiao Bei's heart was filled with joy and anticipation.
"Foundation Building Pill, here I come!" Xiao Bei clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with light.
However, at this moment, a mysterious figure appeared outside the medicine garden. He was wearing black clothes and a conical hat. His face could not be seen clearly, but the powerful aura emanating from his body made Xiao Bei feel a palpitation.
The man in black walked to the entrance of the medicine garden and stopped. His eyes seemed to penetrate through layers of obstacles and fell on the purple ginseng seedling in Xiao Bei's hand.
"Purple Yang Ginseng..." the man in black murmured in a low voice, with a hint of greed in his tone, "Looks like I have to change my plan..."
