Azure Cloud Peak, Purple Bamboo Immortal Market.
Spiritual Field District.
Beside a field ridge that had already been harvested stood two figures, one tall and one short.
"Not bad, your Family's harvest is very good this year. I'll give you two extra Spirit Stones."
The fat Steward squinted his small eyes, nodding in satisfaction and praise.
"Hehe, thank you, Lin Steward. This is all thanks to your usual care, esteed Steward."
Su Bai carefully placed the Spirit Stones into her dusty Storage Pouch.
She then painfully took out over ten Spiritual Crystals and handed them to Lin Steward.
Lin Steward acted as if he hadn't seen them, keeping his hand on his large, fat belly, but as he turned, he quietly took all the Spiritual Crystals and put them into his Storage Pouch.
This Lin Steward was the person specifically managing Spiritual Farrs among the three major Foundation Establishnt Families here.
She couldn't afford to offend him.
Seeing the Spiritual Crystals taken away, Su Bai consoled herself internally.
After accepting Su Bai's Spiritual Crystals, Lin Steward nodded in satisfaction.
"Sensible."
"Not at all, not at all. I'll see you off."
Su Bai bowed and scraped as she saw Lin Steward off.
She waited until Lin Steward left aboard his Flying Magical Artifact.
Only then did she secretly spit.
Bah! Lin the Flayer!
What you took from , sooner or later, I'll make you spit it all back out!
He already has a Flying Magical Artifact, yet he still covets my asly Spiritual Crystals!
Looking at the disappearing silhouette of the other party.
Su Bai angrily kicked the dirt in the field and spat again.
She worked so hard as a Spiritual Farr, and this year, the Spiritual Rice harvest increased by twenty percent!
Yet, she only earned seven Low-Grade Spirit Stones all year!
The dozen or so Spiritual Crystals she just gave away were enough to exchange for one Low-Grade Spirit Stone, which could buy a pot of good Spiritual Tea to enhance her cultivation base!
And this Lin Steward still demanded a kickback!
But she couldn't refuse to give it.
Otherwise, next year she would inevitably be suppressed by Lin Steward in collusion with the other Spiritual Farrs.
She didn't want to be the scapegoat.
"Ugh..."
This action happened to pull at the wound sustained during a previous conflict with other Spiritual Farrs.
Su Bai clutched her left arm, which was throbbing from the excessive movent.
She sucked in a cold breath.
Seeing her low cultivation base, they tried to extort her.
Su Bai was naturally unwilling and tried to use the Lin Family as leverage, refusing them with excuses.
However, those guys weren't afraid at all. She was beaten up the day before the Spiritual Rice harvest, injuring her arm.
Since she didn't have Spirit Stones to buy Spirit dicine for treatnt, she could only endure the pain and slowly recover on her own.
When harvesting the Spiritual Rice, she nearly missed the harvest window due to her arm injury.
She could only grit her teeth and bear it.
While others were cultivating or sleeping at night, she was still rushing to harvest the Spiritual Rice in the dark fields.
She was afraid that if too much ti passed, the spiritual energy of the Spiritual Rice would dissipate, making it unsellable and wasting half a year of effort.
She might even have to pay compensation in Spirit Stones.
At that point, Lin Steward certainly wouldn't let her off easily.
She definitely wouldn't escape another severe beating.
Fortunately, everything was over. Now that the Spiritual Rice harvest was complete and she had sold it for more Spirit Stones than in previous years, she could rest well for a few months.
Just as Su Bai turned to head ho, a figure suddenly blocked her path.
Seeing this, Su Bai frowned, feeling a bad premonition, but she still questioned:
"Wang Mazi, why are you blocking ?"
Facing Su Bai's question, Wang Mazi, who had a face full of fleshy jowls and a pair of shifty little eyes, chuckled and rubbed his rough fingers together.
"Su Bai, it's a good harvest today, and Lin Steward ca to settle the accounts. You must have quite a few Spirit Stones, right? Lend so to spend first."
He called it borrowing, but it was actually robbery!
Her injured arm was precisely wounded by Wang Mazi and a few other Spiritual Farrs working together!
Wang Mazi had conflicts with her parents before this.
Ever since her parents passed away, this guy ca looking for trouble every few days.
Su Bai frowned, a hint of anger showing on her face.
Wang Mazi wasn't afraid of Su Bai at all. His two small eyes squeezed together, and a hint of vicious nace appeared on his face as he threatened:
"Hmph! You little thing without parents, hurry up and hand over the Spirit Stones!"
"It's an honor for this great master to take your Spirit Stones today!"
"Hand over the Spirit Stones to ! Otherwise, don't bla this great master for being impolite!"
Seeing that Wang Mazi was about to resort to violence, Su Bai sternly said:
"Lin Steward hasn't gone far yet. Aren't you afraid he'll co back?"
Wang Mazi seed not to hear Su Bai's warning and slowly moved closer.
Seeing that this tactic was ineffective, Su Bai took out a Talisman; it was a Fireball Talisman.
Seeing the Talisman, Wang Mazi paused and did not continue forward.
The Lin Family had rules prohibiting Spiritual Farrs from private fights. Last ti he injured Su Bai, Lin Steward demanded five Spirit Stones directly to settle the matter.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to remain a Spiritual Farr for the Lin Family.
Moreover, his cultivation base was only slightly higher than Su Bai's, and this Fireball Talisman could still injure him.
The Talisman Su Bai held was bought after she was injured, purchased by gritting her teeth: one Low-Grade Spirit Stone for three Rank One Low-Tier Talismans.
"Little girl, be sensible, don't hurt our harmony. We live very close by; you can hide for a mont, but not forever."
Seeing that Su Bai was still clutching the Fireball Talisman, Wang Mazi dared not press too hard.
"Hmph! You better not leave the Market Area in the future, don't let catch you alone!"
Leaving behind a threat, Wang Mazi departed.
Only then did Su Bai slowly exhale.
Daring not to linger, she quickly ran toward her ho.
Actually, Su Bai was a Transmigrator.
She had Rebirth and Transmigration into this current Immortal Cultivation World.
Both her parents died while seeking Opportunity by venturing into a Secret Realm.
Helpless, she had to take charge early on, planting Spiritual Fields and harvesting Spiritual Rice.
As the simple daughter of a farr, Su Bai usually lived as a Tenant Farr for the Lin Family.
The Spiritual Rice harvest was split three-seventy: they took seventy percent, and she only got thirty.
Aside from keeping a portion of that thirty percent for herself to eat, she sold the rest to exchange for Spirit Stones to Cultivate.
She couldn't earn more than a few Spirit Stones throughout the year.
Today was the harvest day. Su Bai sold the Spiritual Rice for Spirit Stones, and the other party even flayed away a portion as a 'hardship fee'!
Afterward, Wang Mazi tried to rob her. If she hadn't been prepared and bought a Talisman beforehand, she would have certainly lost money today.
That Wang Mazi was at Qi Refining Level Three, possessing so strength.
The Lin Family was one of the three major Foundation Establishnt Families in the Purple Bamboo Immortal Market.
She was just a low-level Qi Refining Cultivator at Qi Refining Level Two, unable to offend either of them.
Lin Steward, who was in charge of the Spiritual Farrs, was a Qi Refining Stage Cultivator.
The Qi Refinent Stage is divided into ten levels: the first three levels are Qi Refining, the middle three levels are Qi Refining Stage, the latter three levels are Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase, and the tenth level is Perfection.
The other party was two minor Realms higher than her!
She could only be a little sweeter with her words.
Shaking her head helplessly, Su Bai picked up the ancestral Low Grade Magical Artifact, the Black Iron Hoe, beside her and walked toward the Small Wooden House.
After entering the house.
Su Bai quickly affixed a Concealnt Talisman to the door.
A look of heartache flashed across her face.
This was bought along with the Fireball Talisman and cost her over thirty Spiritual Crystals directly.
But for the sake of her secret, she endured it!
Pushing aside the Earthen Bed where she usually ditated and slept, a passage leading underground was revealed beneath it.
After ducking down and entering, she restored the Earthen Bed to its original position.
She had dug a private Basent here.
Inside the Basent, a fist-sized Luminous Pearl was placed for illumination.
With an excited heart.
Su Bai closed her eyes.
A small cauldron appeared in her mind.
In front of the small cauldron was a panel.
[Divine Soul: 3
Physique: 5
Mana: 3
Creation Essence: 3]
This small cauldron had been with Su Bai since her Transmigration.
As Su Bai grew older, the System panel's Attribute Points increased by one every year.
Every attribute has a marvelous use!
Divine Soul strengthened Su Bai's Sea of Consciousness, allowing her to abandon introspection and possess Divine Sense—sothing only available to the Foundation Establishnt Stage—even though she was only in the Qi Refinent Stage!
It could survey the area one Chi around her!
Physique, as the na suggests, strengthens the physical body.
If her Physique hadn't been strengthened, her injuries would have been much worse when she was beaten by the Spiritual Farrs; she might not even have been able to get out of bed.
Mana enhanced the power of the Spells Su Bai cast and her ability to precisely control spiritual energy.
As for the Creation Essence, it was the reason why Su Bai's Spiritual Rice yield was twenty percent higher than other Spiritual Farrs'.
In fact, it could increase the yield even more, but Su Bai only used a little, fearing it would attract attention.
Unexpectedly, the effect was quite good!
She completely attributed the twenty percent increased yield to her deceased parents, saying that they had properly managed the Spiritual Field in the past, making the land quite fertile, and she, as their child, was rely the beneficiary.
Su Bai nad the small cauldron the "myriad realms cauldron."
Since it was nad the myriad realms cauldron, its function was naturally represented by that na.
World Transmigration!
This Transmigration function was activated two years ago, in the twelfth year after she Transmigrated to the Immortal Cultivation World.
When the Transmigration function started, it also granted Su Bai immortality...
