Chapter 122: New Attempt, Cultivating Spirit Rice!
[Ding! This simulation consumed 3,500 energy points, leaving 26,031,234 energy points remaining. No remaining simulation attempts.]
[Simulation Start!]
[Spend 1,000 energy points to draw a Green Talent, 10,000 energy points to draw a Blue Talent, or 100,000 energy points to draw a Purple Talent. Do you wish to draw?]
"Draw a Purple Talent!"
Su Xing said without hesitation.
[Congratulations on obtaining the Purple Talent: Numerous Descendants!]
[Numerous Descendants]: Purple Talent. Your fluids possess extraordinary vitality. Your "planting" success rate is 100%. When you reach old age, you will surely have numerous descendants...
Su Xing was stunned after seeing this talent and burst out cursing:
"What the hell is this considered a Purple Talent? Goddamn 'Numerous Descendants'? Isn't this a perfect match for 'Paying a High Price for Children'?"
Su Xing's face darkened.
Clearly, this talent could only be used in extremely rare situations.
For example, when humanity is on the verge of extinction and only Su Xing remains as a male... would he need to step up?
Or perhaps... for those races with extremely low reproductive rates, would it be needed?
"Sigh, whatever! Let's pretend this talent doesn't exist! Let's simulate first!"
[In the Spiritual Field Paradise, you realize that you are in a simulation.]
[You start to consider expanding the cultivation of spirit rice. You first conduct a trial in the Spiritual Field Paradise, spending a month clearing wasteland and then planting more spirit rice.]
[Next, you start trying to set up a Spirit Gathering Array. With the support of the Spirit Gathering Array, the growth rate of the spirit rice will further increase.]
[At the same time, you give 10,000 catties of spirit rice to Jin Congxue to sell. The sales of the spirit rice are unexpectedly good, with most buyers being around 20 years old, Bronze and Silver-level professionals!]
[Initially, when the spirit rice was first released, it was criticized for being too expensive at 300,000 per catty. However, when a little girl bought ten catties of spirit rice in one go, her strength increased by 2,000 catties a month later, and she successfully advanced to the Silver-level professional!]
[After that, the Taro Chamber of Commerce's spirit rice became a complete hit, and everyone went crazy trying to buy it!]
[For a time, the Taro Chamber of Commerce was bustling with customers, and the sales of other goods also increased rapidly.]
[For these professionals, this spirit rice isn't just rice; it's a precious dungeon item that can permanently increase physical attributes! You know, ordinary items that increase attributes in a dungeon are only 300,000 per catty, which is too cheap!]
[You know, dungeon items that permanently increase attributes are incredibly precious, costing millions or tens of millions. Only high-level professionals can afford them, and the attribute increase is very small. Compared to that, spirit rice is incredibly cheap!]
[Gradually, not only Bronze and Silver-level professionals came to buy spirit rice, but even Gold-level professionals wanted to buy it!]
[In just one month, the 10,000 catties of spirit rice you initially put out were sold out, so you could only take out another 30,000 catties of spirit rice for Jin Congxue to sell!]
[Next, you have Jin Congxue instruct her subordinates to record the repurchase rate of spirit rice customers and the extent of their strength increase, hoping to use this to test the effects of spirit rice.]
[A few months later, Jin Congxue tells you that the repurchase rate of spirit rice is almost 100%! Moreover, the vast majority of people can't buy spirit rice. Now, one catty of spirit rice on the black market has been hyped up to 1 million Daxia coins!]
Su Xing was speechless when he saw this.
"Gosh, 1 million for one catty of rice, who the hell can afford this?"
You know, one catty of spirit rice brought out of a dungeon is only worth 1,000 energy points, which is equivalent to 200,000 Daxia coins. If exchanged for dungeon items, it would only be worth around 100,000 Daxia coins...
As a result, it can be resold for ten times the price?
Of course, making money is secondary, it's just to recoup the cost.
What Su Xing values most is whether spirit rice can be mass-produced, thereby enhancing the overall strength of humanity...
And if Su Xing does this, will there be any risks?
The main risk, of course, comes from the Descending Church!
Su Xing thought this way and continued reading.
[You discover that the professionals who buy spirit rice have all had their strength improved to varying degrees, with the fastest even able to advance from the peak of the Bronze level to the Gold level within a month.]
[The slower ones can also achieve a transformation in strength within three to five months!]
[But spirit rice on the market is quickly suppressed by several other chambers of commerce. They say that the spirit rice sold by the Taro Chamber of Commerce is disrupting the price order of the grain market.]
[So, Jin Congxue publicly announced that spirit rice is a type of dungeon item and does not belong to food in the strict sense. With Jin Congxue's efforts, the sales of spirit rice on the market are actually increasing.]
[Countless low-level professionals regard spirit rice as a gift from heaven that allows them to quickly improve their strength!]
[Experts even predict that if spirit rice can be sold at a low price to every Daxia citizen, then in ten years, Daxia's overall strength will be raised to a higher level.]
[In other words, as the saying goes: Gold is everywhere, Silver is like a dog...]
[Soon, Jin Congxue tells you that the Daxia military has contacted her and hopes that she can discuss the matter of large-scale cultivation of spirit rice. Jin Congxue is undecided and comes to you for your opinion!]
[You think for a moment and tell Jin Congxue to set a time, and you will personally discuss this matter with Daxia.]
Su Xing couldn't help but focus when he saw this.
Because the attitude of the Daxia officials is also very important. If the Daxia officials forcibly demand that he hand over the spirit rice, Su Xing will also be in danger, which is unacceptable to him.
[One day, you officially meet with a representative of the Daxia government. This representative is Jin Congxue's grandfather, Lu Yuanwu.]
[Lu Yuanwu's attitude towards you is very good. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, he begins to inquire whether this spirit rice can be mass-produced.]
[You truthfully tell Lu Yuanwu that it cannot be done currently, but it is possible that the annual output of spirit rice will be around 20 million catties in the future.]
[Lu Yuanwu is slightly disappointed after hearing this. 20 million catties seems like a large number, but it is completely insufficient for the entire Daxia country.]
[On average, this batch of spirit rice can only be consumed by 2 million people annually, and each person consumes no more than ten catties a year.]
[What the Daxia officials want is for this batch of spirit rice to be consumed by the entire Daxia nation, thereby improving Daxia's overall strength!]
[Even so, Lu Yuanwu still expresses that whether you can cooperate with the government to cultivate this batch of spirit rice and sell it at a low price. As compensation, Daxia says you can make any request.]
[Without much consideration, you agree to this, but you state that the promotion of spirit rice will be carried out two years later.]
[Although Lu Yuanwu is puzzled by this, he still agrees to your condition.]
[You return to school and continue your daily routine of farming in the Spiritual Field Paradise. A new batch of spirit rice in your field is about to mature.]
[One day, Wang Qingxuan finds you, and due to the nature of your talent, you have carefully taken precautionary measures.]
[After that, you join the Descending Church.]
[This time, your goal is clear: to empty the treasure vault of the Descending Church.]
[You directly expose your strength. Your powerful Divine Power Realm strength directly overwhelms the elders, and a faction leader personally receives you. He says that as long as you are willing to join the Descending Church and perform well within three years, you can become a Protector-level figure!]
Su Xing's heart stirred when he saw this, Protector-level!
That's equivalent to the strength of the Daxia Martial Emperor...
There are probably only about seven or eight Protector-level figures in the entire Descending Church, and most of them come from other worlds and possess strange abilities.
Su Xing's Divine Power Realm strength is obviously worthy of such serious attention from the Descending Church.
"Protector-level, does that mean I will be eligible to know more secrets of the Descending Church?"
Su Xing fell into contemplation.
Currently, his understanding of the Descending Church is only average.
He only knows that the members of this organization are all powerful, from Blue Star professionals to people from other dungeon worlds. This organization serves alien races and harms the interests of Blue Star.
"Currently, what I know is that the strongest person in the Descending Church should be the faction leader, with strength comparable to a Legendary-level figure... As for above the leader, whether there are higher positions, that's unknown..."
Su Xing shook his head slightly. His interest in the Descending Church is actually still in the medicinal herbs in the treasure vault.
After all, those medicinal herbs can also be said to be the foundation of Su Xing's fortune!
"If I could just loot the Descending Church's treasure vault... that would definitely get me a huge amount of energy, and my strength would definitely have a qualitative leap!"
Su Xing suddenly had a flash of inspiration, but then felt a little disappointed.
"Unfortunately, the Dragon Protector who guards the treasure vault is incredibly powerful, definitely no weaker than a peak Nascent Soul stage expert!"
"But my current strength is not weak either. Maybe when I get stronger, I can try it?"
Su Xing thought this way and then looked at the simulation panel.
[You successfully join the Descending Church. For a time, all the elders and protectors of the Descending Church come to see you personally, but the Dragon Protector is not among them.]
[You look at Elder Dog's hypocritical smile and know that he probably wants to attack you, but he is probably afraid of your strength.]
[The next day, you find Luo Shuyin, confess everything to her, and use the code phrase to gain her trust.]
[You stay in the Descending Church for a few months. Because of your strength, many followers respect you very much, but you can also feel a few auras constantly watching you, obviously not trusting you.]
[You complete the tasks assigned to you by the Descending Church every month, but this time the tasks are not alchemy, but to meet with some faction spies in various dungeons because you have just joined, so the tasks given to you are simple.]
[But this gives you more time. You have Luo Shuyin exchange a large amount of medicinal herbs for you, and when you have nothing to do, you hoard pills for future use.]
[One day, Elder Dog finds you. He inquires about which reality world you came from and wants your spirit rice.]
