Exiled Clan 28 Sea Serpent Rice
It was midnight and there was a clear moon.At the back of the hill, there was a crystal pathway. After a short walk through a shrub, the view ahead was a vast field with much flora and fauna.The rice grains here were large as a pearl and shone under the moonlight.There was also a fertile Emerald Guava fruit tree. The deeper the color, the stronger the medicinal effects of the Truth Clover, and the ones here were purplish-black. There was also the Dragon Apple Fruit Tree, Shark Gra.s.s, and many other rarer medicinal plants and food; it was as though the place had undergone a shocking transformation.Of course, if people found out about this place, they would definitely take advantage of it.Only in the legends would there be such a miraculous place!And this type of place belonged to the Spirit River Sect, or rather Rishi.It would be hard for a person to believe that this was not a farmer sect or even high ranked one at that.In the center of the fields, there was an extremely detailed haven that had tall hedges encircling it. In it grew some Sea Serpent Rice. Each grain of rice appeared full of vitality and was also easy on the eyes.This was his moneymaker, this was the bad boy that had filled his pockets to the brim.Rishi was clad in a long white robe, with a piercing look in his eyes and a sort of careless aura about him. One would find it hard to believe that such a scholarly looking man would be a farmer.Rishi went to a specific empty plot of land.The moon rose to the top and the moonlight was bright, making it rather visible.With the aid of the moonlight, Rishi used a hoe and carefully dug a hole and scattered the Sea Serpent Rice in it."This Sea Serpent Rice needs to be planted at night, the water needs to be from the ocean, the serpentine head of the rice plant must be watered with ocean water...."Rishi had mastered farming under the guidance of Master Ren but lacked hands-on practice.Though it seemed effortless, his sweat trickled into the soil.The Heaven rank spiritual plants were far more delicate than other types of plants, and therefore planting them requires more effort.When Rishi planted the last of them, the sun's brightness had already begun to shine through the horizon."Phew… Finally, it's done…"Five months ago when he was skimming through the book he had borrowed from his master, he came across the Sea Serpent Rice it was an Earth-Heaven rank Spiritual plant that could only grow in the deep ocean floor.Sea Serpent Rice helped help with the cultivation of Water-based Qi, and in this Spirit River sect it was in high demand, he had expanded his operations so that he could even supply the Sea Serpent Rice to the Spirit Ocean Sect.Sea Serpent Rice was selling like hotcakes, all the Heaven rank Sea Serpent Rice was taken by the Sect Elders who paid him generously and the rest Earth rank Sea Serpent Rice was sold in markets.
Disciples of the Spirit River Sect enjoyed the first harvest of Sea Serpent Rice all to themselves but when the word of Sea Serpent Rice spread out even the disciples of Spirit Ocean Sect and the other branches like Spirit Waterfall Sect, Spirit Lake Sect, and others were fighting for even a single grain of Sea Serpent Rice.All of this made Rishi's pocket full of money and contribution points.But because of the constant demand for the Sea Serpent Rice, Rishi was hardly able to walk out of his farm to check out the Sect Library or the much-awaited Sect Mess Hall.Sea Serpent Rice's demand was growing with each pa.s.sing day. And now Rishi had been able to grow Spirit Shark Gra.s.s which was a feed of Shark type beasts. The Shark type beasts were the most common of the beast that was tamed in Spirit Ocean Sect. Spirit Shark Gra.s.s, grown by him in a shallow pond would also be a hot selling item if he had planned to sell them he was keeping it under wraps.Rishi was able to grow the Sea Serpent Rice them on his fields, defying the notion of Sea Serpent Rice growing only in the deep ocean which had allowed him to step into the ranks of Heaven Rank Farmer which was equal to his Master Ren.But growing the deep sea Sea Serpent Rice on land was no easy task-it was only possible after a very long arduous process. But the breakthrough came one day when he realized that it was the Sea Serpent Rice's serpentine head that needed to be watered with ocean water and only ocean water and no other water and its roots were not needed to be watered.The next three months Rishi spent the money earned by selling Sea Serpent Rice to purchase other higher rank spiritual plants and planted them across his home and fields.He even purchased rare flower pollinating species of Jade bees and Empyrean b.u.t.terflies to improve the productivity of his field.Even one looked at this area one would have a hard time believing it to be not a part of a Farming sect.
