Shu Feng drew a Spiritual Spear and pulled the trigger. Three Spiritual Light Beams shot out, blasting the three bandits and killing each with a shot to the head.
"Thank you for saving my life, Sir!"
The young Dog Race Sub-human girl thanked Shu Feng and hurried off in the direction of her ho.
"No, Mama, Papa, don’t die! Please, don’t die! Don’t you die! WAAAAH!"
As Shu Feng stepped into the small wooden cabin, he saw a male Dog Race Sub-human and a middle-aged human woman lying in pools of blood, no longer breathing.
The young Dog Race Sub-human girl was sprawled over the body of the human woman, wailing loudly. The woman was clearly her mother.
Shu Feng asked, "What’s your na?"
The young girl’s eyes were red from crying. "My na is Nancy!"
Shu Feng said, "Nancy, I’ll bury your parents for you. From now on, you’ll be with ."
Nancy sobbed quietly. "Yes, kind Sir!"
"Bury them."
With a wave of his hand, Shu Feng released the bandits he had subdued along the way and ordered them to handle the bodies. He himself walked out to the farmland.
In the farmland outside, patches of black tubers were planted. They were sparse and grew with great difficulty.
Shu Feng studied the farmland carefully. As a flash of spiritual light flickered in his eyes, he saw faint traces of Void Demonic Qi and a gray miasma drifting over from the swamp. ’Void Demonic Qi,’ he mused, ’and probably interference from the swamp miasma, too.’
Here on the Void Demon Battlefield, all swamps contained a toxic miasma. Within a hundred ters of them, not a single blade of grass could grow. Even a Spirit Warrior Level expert would face certain death if they approached without an Antidote or special equipnt.
’Analyze the soil and climate,’ Shu Feng commanded internally. ’Modify the genes of Earth Star’s rice and wheat to allow them to grow rapidly in this environnt.’
Shu Feng crouched before a patch of soil and issued the command.
Transparent tentacles extended from Shu Feng’s fingers, piercing deep into the ground.
Innurable data points surged through the Central Analyzer as it began to parse the local soil and environntal conditions.
A prompt appeared from the Central Analyzer: "Recomndation: Fuse the genes of Blue Star rice and black tubers within the Source Energy Evolutionary Mutation Nest to create a new mutant plant."
’Interesting!’
With a thought, Shu Feng entered the Base Space and stood before the Source Energy Evolutionary Mutation Nest.
’Fuse the genes of Blue Star rice and the black tuber to create a new mutant plant,’ Shu Feng instructed. ’The Mutant Evolution should be directed toward absorbing the Power of Void Demon and swamp miasma, adapting to the environnt, being high-yield and non-toxic, and ideally, beneficial to the human body.’
Shu Feng took out a grain of rice and tossed it into the Source Energy Evolutionary Mutation Nest.
Countless tendrils of sli surged from the Source Energy Evolutionary Mutation Nest, enveloping the grain of rice.
Streams of mysterious Source Energy poured into the rice grain. It trembled slightly and began to grow at a rapid pace.
One minute later, the single grain of rice had fully grown into a giant, two-ter-tall rice plant, entirely pitch-black and covered in heavy ears of grain.
"Mire Black Rice: A black rice capable of absorbing the Power of Void Demon and swamp miasma. Non-toxic. Two harvests per year, with a yield of 1,500 jin per mu. The grain provides a minor enhancent to the human body. Consu Source Energy to continue inducing mutation?"
’It only took a Hundred Sources to create this Mire Black Rice. I’m really quite amazing.’
A slight smile touched Shu Feng’s lips.
Now that this Mire Black Rice had been created, the Mire Dragon Territory—a place so poor that birds wouldn’t even lay eggs there—could transform into a massive breadbasket, guaranteed to rake in a daily fortune.
After all, much of the food on the Void Demon Battlefield was teleported from Blue Star. A jin of rice that cost three or four yuan on Blue Star sold for over a hundred yuan here.
The Royal Luo Family, as well as the Zhu Family and the Shangguan Clan of the Eight Great Clans, all controlled several fertile territories on the Void Demon Battlefield. They had cultivated rice and wheat suitable for this environnt, allowing them to reap enormous profits from the grain trade.
Once this Mire Black Rice was cultivated, the Mire Dragon Territory would undoubtedly beco a great breadbasket on the Void Demon Battlefield, transforming from a barren territory into a rich and prosperous one.
’Continue inducing Mutant Evolution! Prioritize enhancing human physical attributes. Attempt various mutational pathways.’
As Shu Feng issued the command, transparent tentacles plucked the seeds from the Mire Black Rice, subrged them in sli, and tossed the parent plant aside.
A massive and continuous stream of Source Energy poured into the Mire Black Rice seeds.
The Mire Black Rice seeds began to grow rapidly, forming a variety of different rice plants.
Many of the plants were bizarrely shaped: so produced grains the size of apples, so grew razor-sharp leaves, and others yielded highly poisonous rice.
The failed mutations were imdiately plucked from the sli by transparent tentacles and tossed aside, their genetic data rely recorded in the gene bank.
Once the data was in the gene bank, new seeds could be synthesized in the Warrior Synthesis Nest, provided there were sufficient resources.
As stalk after stalk of different rice grew, Shu Feng’s eyelid began to twitch. The Source Energy reserves in his Base Space were being consud at a frantic rate.
After 3,000 points of Source Energy had been consud, a two-ter-tall rice plant erged from the sli, its ears of grain shimring with a faint, black light.
"Mire Pearl Rice: A black rice capable of absorbing the Power of Void Demon and swamp miasma. Non-toxic. Three harvests per year, with a yield of 1,000 jin per mu. Can significantly enhance human physical attributes. A Yellow-level Upper Grade Treasure of Heaven and Earth. Consu Source Energy to continue inducing mutation?"
A grin spread across Shu Feng’s face. ’Excellent! A Yellow-level Upper Grade Treasure of Heaven and Earth! With this, my Mire Dragon Territory has a flagship product—the very foundation of its future prosperity!’
The Dragon Essence Pill Shu Feng had once consud, which was worth over one hundred million, was rely a Yellow-level Middle Grade Treasure of Heaven and Earth. Although the imdiate effect of the Mire Pearl Rice couldn’t compare to the Dragon Essence Pill, its advantage was that it could be eaten daily. Consud over the long term, its benefits would absolutely surpass those of the pill.
Shu Feng exited the Base Space and, bringing along Nancy, the young Dog Race Sub-human girl he had just taken in, left the area and returned to the city.
"Xuan Yi, I’m coming in!"
Shu Feng knocked on an office door.
A woman’s startled shriek imdiately sounded from within the office, followed by the rustling of soone getting dressed.
"Co in!"
After a long mont, Li Xuan Yi’s lazy voice drifted out from inside.
