Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank - Chapter 705
705 The Birth of the Spiritual Field
“What a miracle! These snowflakes can fuse into the rice grains, causing them to change. It’s like the most perfect work of art in the world. It’s so beautiful!”
“The heaven and earth vitality seems to be constantly fusing into the grains, causing them to become even more mystical and filled with Spiritual Qi. It’s completely different from common rice and has a strong Spiritual Qi. It even has a cool feeling to it, which is very wonderful.”
The civilians nearby were very curious and excited about the changes in the rice fields. They watched the changes without blinking.
“Who is this person?” Zhou Qing asked curiously.
!!
“I didn’t expect him to grow a new type of spiritual rice. This is unbelievable,” said Huang Chengyan in shock after taking a deep breath.
This was spiritual rice, the real spiritual rice. He had seen spiritual rice so he knew the difference very well.
“He’s Song Yingxing!” said Li Xiang slowly.
He had some understanding of Old Song before this and had even carefully reviewed and verified his information. After he had successfully cultivated the spiritual rice, Li Xiang was sure of who the person was.
This was a rare talent in the history of Huaxia- Song Yingxing.
He was a Han Chinese Fengxin from Jiangxi and a famous scientist from the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty.
According to Li Xiang’s understanding, Song Yingxing had devoted his life to scientific research and investigation on agriculture as well as handicraft production. He had collected a wealth of scientific information. At the same time, his advanced thinking made him a thinker who criticized feudal architecture and medieval academic tradition. He had many famous works, which covered different subjects of natural science and human science. The most outstanding one was “Tiangong Kaiwu”.
“Tiangong Kaiwu” was a great work in the history of Huaxia.
It was divided into three volumes and eighteen chapters. The entire book included agriculture, handicraft, machinery, brick, porcelain, sulfur, candle, paper, weapons, gunpowder, textile, dyeing, salt-making, coal-mining, oil-pressing, and other production techniques.
This was an extremely rare encyclopedia back then, and its value was immeasurable.
He had done in-depth research in many areas and had produced results. He would personally try out some of the skills and techniques to confirm that they were feasible before writing them down in his book.
After knowing that Song Yingxing was also in the Kingdom of Dawn and had been cultivating new rice seeds, Li Xiang had suppressed his thoughts of recruiting him. He would like him to study in peace until he succeeded to produce rice seeds.
He did not expect that this day would come so quickly.
Furthermore, it was obvious that the new seed of rice had been cultivated. Even heaven and earth were giving out strange signs and even bestowed gifts, directly transforming the new seed into spiritual rice. It was a boundless fortune.
It was no longer snow pear rice. Under Li Xiang’s inspection, this new rice was called snow crystal rice.
This kind of snow crystal rice was like an ice crystal and grew in cold places. It tasted like a popsicle in the summer. One would feel was cold and comfortable. It contained Spiritual Qi and was the best summer-heat relieving spiritual rice. It could exorcise inner demons and calm the heart. Its grade was of a mythical Rank 7, which can be considered a high grade.
It was obvious that the original snow pear rice could not reach the mythical level even if it became spiritual rice. Now, it had undergone a fundamental transformation because of the creation of heaven and earth.
It was a type of spiritual rice that was cultivated by humans. It could even be said that it was the first artificially cultivated new species in the entire Myriad World Continent. Only then could it attract the creation of heaven and earth, undergo a transformation, and advance to become one of the top spiritual rice of the mythical level.
Most importantly, the appearance of spiritual rice had given the Kingdom of Dawn another choice of spiritual rice.
The golden spiritual rice that Li Xiang had previously obtained was an extremely rare divine-grade spiritual rice. It was not easy to grow it, and there were certain requirements for cultivation and environment. So, it could only be planted in the World Tree Space.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to release it, but the spiritual rice was a strategic resource to a certain extent.
Its benefits for the transcendents were simply too great, to the point that it could not be any greater.
It could assist in cultivation, strengthen one’s body, and even slowly change one’s aptitude and improve one’s talent.
Everyone knew the benefits of spiritual rice, but it was also a problem as to who to give the spiritual rice. Furthermore, there was a prerequisite to growing spiritual rice. It had to be planted on a spiritual field.
What was a spiritual field? All the soil in a spirit field contained Spiritual Qi, and there had to be an endless supply of Spiritual Qi underground. If there were no spiritual veins underground to support the spiritual fields, they would have to continuously grind spiritual stones into a powder and use them as fertilizer to maintain the spiritual fields.
This was not a small investment, and not everyone could afford it. The best spiritual fields only appeared in the spiritual vein. It was born naturally from it. Such a spiritual field did not need to be nourished and could always maintain its Spiritual Qi with the help of the spiritual vein.
The Kingdom of Dawn had countless spiritual stone mines and spiritual veins, but the amount was only considered for the whole kingdom. If one were to average them out, there wouldn’t be many.
Without a spiritual vein, one could only form a spiritual field by using a special method. One had to arrange a spiritual gathering array, crush crystals, and fuse them into the soil. In the end, it would form a temporary spiritual field. Thus, planting on the field would naturally be very difficult.
Furthermore, planting spiritual rice would naturally absorb heaven and earth vitality and plunder the nutrients in the soil. If the nutrients were insufficient, it would greatly reduce the soil fertility and the gains would not make up for the losses.
It was not that ordinary rice fields could not be planted with spiritual rice and spiritual plants, but their growth would be very slow without sufficient Spiritual Qi. It might even take several times longer than in a spiritual field.
For example, many of the golden wheat planted by the Straw men in the valley were not on the spiritual fields, but they could still grow. It was just that the growth cycle would be longer, and they even had to be nurtured with the bones and flesh of various fierce beasts that contained Spiritual Qi.
But now, Li Xiang could see that as the snow crystal rice transformed, the heaven and earth brought about a change in fortune. The countless corpses and blood of the fierce rats on the ground had strangely fused into the ground. The few acres of fertile land that Song Yingxing had been cultivating previously was now emitting a layer of strange spiritual light.
“Is this the creation of the heavens and earth, giving birth to spiritual fields?”
Cai Yong also came to the rice fields. When he saw the spiritual light that was being emitted from the rice fields, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
“Under the nourishment of the blood and flesh of the millions of fierce rats, it is normal for-new spiritual field to be formed. This is the second phenomenon of the snow crystal rice- The heaven and earth spiritual evolution field!”
Huang Chengyan’s eyes could not help but reveal a trace of touch.
Spiritual fields were very precious in the Kingdom of Dawn, especially since they were so close to the city.
“Look, there’s a spiritual spring in the rice field!” Someone pointed at the rice field and exclaimed.
