Through his persuasion, Song Chen successfully survived under Mu Feng's control.
They have been granted the right to work within the Spirit Spring Space.
In the first year, he dawdled, dug a pit for the spirit spring, and smoothed the area around the spring with his fingers, bit by bit.
The spring suddenly turned into a small pool.
Mu Feng came to fetch water again and was very satisfied with the situation.
He looked at Song Chen and said with a wicked smile:
"Once the job is done, you're worthless and deserve to die."
However, Song Chen raised his hand and responded with practiced ease:
"Immortal Master, please wait. In this Peach Blossom Paradise, all labor cannot be done without human effort."
Now the spiritual spring exists, but these barren fields remain.
Why don't you let me live a few more days and let me continue to cultivate in this space?
All you need to do is give me some books, and after I read them, I can help you cultivate countless spiritual fields.
The spiritual spring water irrigates the spiritual fields, and the spiritual plants grown there will surely be of extremely high value.
Upon hearing this, Mu Feng seemed to have a new perspective.
He was cruel and vicious, but his thinking was somewhat inflexible. He was completely intimidated by Song Chen's words.
Mu Feng left all the books in his storage bag in the Peach Blossom Paradise.
"Then I'll trust you one more time. I'm short of money right now, so I can only make money by killing and robbing."
If you can solve my money problem, I'll spare your life!
If spiritual plants could truly grow in these places, then the desolate secret realm could truly be renamed the Peach Blossom Spring Secret Realm.
After saying this, Mu Feng left behind a pile of farming tools and departed from the desolate secret realm once again.
After Mu Feng left, Song Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Over the past year, he has simulated his conversations with Mu Feng countless times in his mind.
Having seen through Mu Feng's true nature, he finally survived.
He couldn't even read the books on immortal techniques, and in fact, he didn't know anything about how to cultivate spiritual plants. He only knew that good spiritual herbs were worth a fortune based on his past experience of taking medicine.
Song Chen picked up the scattered stacks of books from the ground and moved them to the side of the spirit pool.
He casually flipped through a few pages and found that he still couldn't get into the content.
Without the support of spiritual energy, these things simply don't register in one's mind.
Thinking of spiritual energy, Song Chen quickly drank a sip of spiritual spring water.
He held the spring water in his mouth and resumed reading his books.
This time, with the support of spiritual energy within him, he was even able to understand some of the content of the books he read.
And so, Song Chen began his arduous journey of studying.
Besides turning over the soil, he spent his days reading all kinds of books.
Mu Feng brought a lot of books, and they were quite varied, covering all sorts of genres.
It encompasses all kinds of magical arts, including talisman making, alchemy, weapon crafting, and so on.
Mu Feng bought the books but didn't study them, which benefited Song Chen.
Six months later, Mu Feng threw in another large batch of seeds and professional planting books.
Song Chen officially began cultivating the land in the secret realm.
With the blessing of the spiritual spring, Song Chen's first year of farming brought a bumper harvest to the secret realm, with all the spiritual plants from the land selling for 5,000 gold.
Because of this incident, Mu Feng laughed arrogantly for half an hour in the secret realm.
"Hahaha! I have to kill and rob a hundred people to collect a hundred or two gold coins. I never thought that planting spiritual plants would be so profitable!"
Mu Feng looked at Song Chen and grinned maliciously:
"Don't die. If you live, you might create greater value."
I have recently mastered a secret technique that can turn you into an immortal monster.
That means extracting your intelligence and stuffing you into the bodies of different spirit beasts.
What do you think of this method? You are an ordinary person now, with a very weak body. It takes you a whole year to harvest a single crop of crops.
I'll prepare several spirit beast bodies for you; they'll definitely be much better than what you have now.
Mu Feng originally thought that Song Chen would burst into tears and beg for mercy in the face of such sarcasm and threats.
But to my surprise, Song Chen simply said:
"I don't want this body anymore. I have to endure hunger every day and fall into a deep sleep every day."
But unfortunately, human hands are the most dexterous; have you ever seen a mythical beast that can refine pills or forge weapons?
As Song Chen spoke, he took out several pills from behind his back.
He held the pills in his hand. The pills were very rough, and the surface was not smooth. They were just a few low-grade pills.
But when Mu Feng saw this, he was shocked and drew his flying sword, placing it against Song Chen's neck.
"You can cultivate now? Cultivators who can cultivate are not allowed to linger in the Peach Blossom Spring Secret Realm. You must die!"
Song Chen smiled calmly:
"Of course not. I still cannot cultivate. These pills were made by me soaking in the spiritual spring and drawing on its spiritual energy."
Upon hearing this, Mu Feng's eyes flickered.
At this point, driven by self-interest, the relationship between the two had begun to change.
Now that Song Chen had the confidence to negotiate, he was no longer afraid that Mu Feng could kill him at any time.
Song Chen said coldly:
“I have read all these books. If you have a way, please get me some more books, all of them.”
Also, prepare some alchemy furnaces and weapon-refining furnaces.
When I have nothing to do in the secret realm, I practice my skills.
The spiritual plants in this space are worth 5,000 gold coins when sold, but if they are sold as pills, they would be worth 10,000 gold coins.
Anyway, I'm stuck in this Peach Blossom Paradise for the rest of my life, unable to leave, and I'm going to die sooner or later.
How much you can get out of me depends on your performance.
Hearing Song Chen's threat, Mu Feng wanted to get angry, but when he saw the completely renovated Peach Blossom Spring Secret Realm and the pill that looked like a mud ball, Mu Feng's anger was extinguished.
After a long pause, Mu Feng tossed his hair and said:
"I am the master of this secret realm, and you can't try anything funny!"
I will collect what you need, but don't be lazy when you do things!
Otherwise, I can crush you as easily as crushing an ant!
I've killed countless people in the Peach Blossom Spring, you should have seen it. If you don't want to end up like them, you'd better behave yourself!
After saying this, Mu Feng left.
Half a month later, a pile of new books appeared in the Peach Blossom Spring.
Song Chen devoured the books. To survive, he needed to catch up with Mu Feng's cultivation progress and not fall too far behind.
He dug a small pool for himself and scooped water from the spirit pool every day to soak in it.
By touching the water of the spirit pool with his skin, he can read these books and activate the alchemy furnace and weapon-refining furnace.
Gradually, the pool grew bigger and bigger.
Because Song Chen needs more and more spiritual energy.
When Mu Feng returns.
Song Chen said:
"My meridians are too weak, and I'm afraid that the pills I refine will stop growing after the Foundation Establishment stage."
"If you want to take pills for the Golden Core stage or the Nascent Soul stage, then go and find me a cultivation technique that can free me from the constraints of my body."
Upon hearing about the Nascent Soul stage pills, Mu Feng couldn't help but feel excited, and he kept these words deeply in his heart.
"I will think of a solution. Three years from now, we need to prepare for the Immortal Realm Grand Competition on the Tianyan Continent."
You need to focus on farming and alchemy these days. I need to have enough money to spend before the Immortal Realm Grand Competition!
Otherwise, your death is in three years!
