Bank of the Universe Novel - Chapter 265
Chapter 265: Planting Dragontooth Rice
Li Xiandao looked on as Seven and Tian Ya left. He returned to his room and took out the Dragontooth Rice.
Li Xiandao placed the Dragontooth Rice that Tian Ya shrunk onto the table.
“You can transform back and then we can have a chat.” Li Xiandao said calmly.
Dragontooth Rice returned to normal. It was half Tian Ya’s size. Its body was red in color and had five features.
It wasn’t strong but its body was filled with an ocean amount of energy.
This was the energy to reproduce.
“You are Tian Ya’s Granddad Deity?” Dragontooth Rice asked.
Li Xiandao nodded and said, “I am the owner of the Bank of the Universe. From now onwards, you belong to me.”
Dragontooth Rice didn’t argue, “If you want to own me, you will face huge pressure.”
“What pressure?” Li Xiandao asked.
“Pressure from the Nine Skies and Celestial World.” Dragontooth Rice stood up and said.
“So, you are saying that people from both Nine Skies and Celestial World want you?” Li Xiandao asked.
“Obviously. Who doesn’t want a godly item like me?” Dragontooth Rice said proudly.
“True, I have read many ancient records and you were all over the Ten Lands and Nine Skies.” Li Xiandao said.
“That was so long ago. Let’s not talk about it.” Dragontooth Rice was a little sad.
“You were once in the hands of the barbarian race experts of the Ten Lands but then why did you disappear? And then how did you appear again?” Li Xiandao was curious.
“Because I was too strong and people were jealous, so they wanted to destroy me in the Ten Lands.” Dragontooth Rice said.
“Who wanted to kill you?” Li Xiandao asked.
“I can’t say. The moment I say his name, he will be able to sense it. When he crosses worlds, you won’t be able to block him and I won’t either. I don’t want to be captured the moment I appear and get locked up forever.” Dragontooth Rice said nervously.
“He is so strong?” Li Xiandao looked at it with a weird expression.
“He is just that strong. With one finger he can squash you.” Dragontooth Rice didn’t hold back.
Li Xiandao didn’t get angry and muttered, “Since he is so strong, then he must be from the Celestial World.”
Dragontooth Rice looked at Li Xiandao, “I didn’t say that. You were the one who guessed it.”
Li Xiandao looked at it and changed the topic, “In that era, Celestial World, Nine Skies and Ten Lands were all equal. People from the Celestial World felt that they couldn’t be equals so they destroyed you, starting that war. From then on, the Nine Skies and Ten Lands were below Celestial World?”
All of these were Li Xiandao’s own guesses based on historical records as well as what Dragontooth Rice said.
Dragontooth Rice sighed, “So what if you know everything?”
“I just want to understand who destroyed you, so I can prepare.” Li Xiandao said.
He didn’t go back to that period in history to take revenge for them or challenge the position of Celestial World.
Tens of thousands of years had passed already. Only a fool would think about taking revenge for them.
Li Xiandao definitely wouldn’t do anything without benefits.
“If you want to know who attacked me, then you should exceed Celestial Realm first. You are strong now but the Ten Lands are the weakest of the three worlds. When you enter the Nine Skies you will have to start from scratch. Let’s not talk about Celestial World yet.” Dragontooth Rice didn’t hold back.
“That’s true!” Li Xiandao nodded as he looked at Dragontooth Rice, “Since you don’t want to say it, then I won’t force you. From now on, you will remain in my Bank of the Universe peacefully giving birth to Dragontooth Rice so that my men can eat it.”
“No problem, that is what I am good at,” Dragontooth Rice agreed.
“How many can you give birth to at once?” Li Xiandao asked.
“It depends on the thickness of spiritual energy; in the past when it was the Ten Lands and Celestial World were the same, I could produce billions of grains of Dragontooth Rice.” Dragontooth rice said proudly.
“What about now?” Li Xiandao asked.
“The spiritual energy in the Ten Lands is too thin. The spiritual energy here is still decent. I think I can produce the Dragontooth Rice of a few hundred people.” Dragontooth Rice guessed.
“Good, then how long will it take you to reproduce once?” Li Xiandao asked.
“A month!” Dragontooth Rice said.
“So fast?” Li Xiandao was shocked. He thought that he would take half a year to a year.
“I am a top being in the world and even celestial artifacts aren’t even 1% of my worth. In the past, I was able to split into many clones and spread everywhere. No one would go hungry and no one would die from old age.” Dragontooth Rice reminisced about the past.
It had been destroyed by the Celestial World expert then and been resting for many years, slowly recovering but it was still far from its peak state.
“Then, why did you sign the contract with Tian Ya?” Li Xiandao asked.
“She is the one destined for me. That year when that bastard destroyed me, he grabbed my source and used a formation to suppress me. This was why I was trapped on that island for tens of thousands of years. Even when half of my body was recovered, I still wasn’t able to escape.” Dragontooth Rice sighed.
“If she hadn’t dug me out, I wouldn’t even be out now and you wouldn’t be able to find me. The island was surrounded by formations and only Tian Ya could enter.” Dragontooth Rice exclaimed.
“I understand!” Li Xiandao nodded and looked at Dragontooth Rice.
“Do you need soil to produce new Dragontooth Rice?” Li Xiandao asked.
“I do. You need to provide me with farmland.” Dragontooth Rice nodded.
Li Xiandao stood up and walked outwards. “Follow me, I will bring you there!”
He couldn’t bring him to the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository as the entire mountain was a book depository. There were book spirits within and it wasn’t suitable as farmland.
He couldn’t head to Legacy Hall as many spirits and souls were buried there. If he farmed there, then wouldn’t he be planting rice on their coffins?
He couldn’t head to Seal Mountain Peak as it was covered in seals and if they were damaged, Li Xiandao would feel really heartpained.
Thinking about it, Time Hall was the only one left.
On the Time Hall mountain peak, only one Time Hall stood in the middle. The other areas were empty.
It was really suitable to open up farmland.
Li Xiandao brought the Dragontooth Rice over. He reached out and pointed at the ground.
Explosion!
The ground rolled. Like an earth dragon surging out of the ground, numerous pieces of farmland were opened up.
He directed water to wet the soil and after forming a standard plot of farmland, Dragontooth Rice flew down and scattered its seeds.
“Just wait. One month from now, the new Dragontooth Rice will be born.” Dragontooth Rice was looking forward to it.
Tens of thousands of years had passed and this was the first batch of seeds he planted since he returned.
