Chapter 239 Ironwood Spirit Wheat (1/2)

Feng Tianzong did not hesitate and immediately took Nong Mingquan to the ironwood plantation. Because ironwood grows slowly, the ironwoods planted now have only grown for ten years and are still saplings. It will take a long time for them to mature.

Feng Tianzong experimented with the small magical power he had just learned to accelerate growth. He saw that the saplings were getting thicker and bigger at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon they became taller and bigger, covering the sky and growing into towering trees.

How powerful a magical power is depends entirely on how much mana is used when it is used. In Nong Mingquan's hands, the small magical power of accelerated growth can only make ordinary plants grow quickly. When encountering spiritual medicines and spiritual herbs, which have spiritual energy, the role it can play is very small.

The more precious the plant, the more spiritual energy it contains. If you want to accelerate its growth rate, the more mana you need to consume. So this accelerated growth is just a small magical power, it cannot accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy by plants.

For example, for a spiritual medicine, this magical power can indeed accelerate its growth, but it cannot replenish the spiritual power needed during its growth process. After the accelerated growth, the precious spiritual medicine can only become mediocre due to insufficient spiritual power.

And this small magical power of accelerated growth, in the hands of Feng Tianzong, can make spiritual plants such as iron wood grow rapidly. Nong Mingquan was dumbfounded by the mana consumed during the period. There are not no Jindan-stage cultivators in their Shencao Sect, and there are many of them.

But the accelerated growth they exerted has never been so exaggerated. Nong Mingquan has never even thought that this small magical power of accelerated growth can play such a big role.

Feng Tianzong looked at the towering tree with lush branches and leaves in front of him and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Even with his three Jindan mana, it has been completely consumed.

However, the iron wood in front of him is indeed mature. In his perception, he can also feel that this iron wood is already a qualified wood.

Moreover, the ironwood in front of us, judging from its thickness, can at least be compared with the ironwood that has grown in the wild for more than 300 years. Moreover, compared with the ironwood that grows naturally in the wild, this accelerated ironwood has no damage caused by insects, nor any crooked parts. The straight trunk is a pillar of material.

Although ironwood is relatively hard, there are also some spiritual insects in the world of immortal cultivation that can build nests on it.

"Now I haven't cultivated this spell into a magical seed, so it is inevitable that the consumption of mana will be relatively large when I use it. If I cultivate this spell into a magical power in the future, the consumption should not be as large as it is now.

However, if the effect of the formation is used to accelerate growth, the effect should not be so obvious. However, the biggest advantage of the formation is that it is a long-term effect. Although it is not so obvious, it can also accelerate the growth of ironwood. At least it can be increased tenfold.

The ironwood that takes a hundred years to grow should only take ten years to grow under the acceleration of the formation." Feng Tianzong calculated in his mind.

"Come, let's cut off its branches and leaves first, and combine them with rice and wheat to see which one is more compatible with ironwood." Feng Tianzong ordered.

Nong Mingquan quickly started to work, and the operation process was very fast. He not only tried rice and wheat, but also tried millet. After trying, he found that the combination with wheat consumed the least mana.

Feng Tianzong did not delay. Since wheat was suitable, he combined this ironwood with wheat. Soon, this ironwood turned into a wheat tree, which was full of wheat ears.

At this point, Nong Mingquan's mana was not enough, and Feng Tianzong had to take it up himself. Huge mana continued to flow into this wheat tree.

I saw that the wheat ears on the tree quickly became full, mature, and turned golden. Feng Tianzong's mana was also consumed violently at the same time.

This consumption was no less than when he just accelerated the growth of ironwood, and Feng Tianzong's huge mana was consumed again.

However, the more mana he consumed, the happier Feng Tianzong was. All the mana he consumed was absorbed by the wheat tree. Ordinary wheat could not absorb so much mana. The fact that it could absorb so much mana only meant one thing. That is, the wheat grown on this tree is no longer ordinary wheat.

Sure enough, not only the ironwood contained a faint spiritual fluctuation, but also the wheat ears grown on it contained a faint spiritual fluctuation.

Although this fluctuation was very weak, weaker than the ironwood. Ironwood was basically the most spiritual plant with the weakest spiritual energy in the world of immortal cultivation.

The spiritual energy contained in this wheat ear was even lower. If Feng Tianzong had not cultivated so high, it would have been almost impossible to detect. But no matter how low the spiritual energy contained, it was still a spiritual plant. The wheat ears on this wheat tree could be called spiritual wheat.

And because the ironwood grew tall, all the branches and leaves on it were trimmed by Feng Tianzong and replaced with wheat. You can imagine how much wheat there would be on this tree.

Feng Tianzong only roughly estimated that at least tens of thousands of kilograms of grain could be produced. This was just a rough estimate. The exact amount would not be known until the wheat was harvested and shelled.

Even though the spiritual energy on each grain of wheat was very thin, the wheat tree produced too much, which was the reason why Feng Tianzong's three golden pills were completely consumed.

"Send someone to harvest the grain immediately. I want to see how much spiritual wheat this ironwood tree can produce." Feng Tianzong's order was quickly passed down. When he came, the gardener who took care of the plantation came to serve him.

With Emperor Feng Tianzong watching here, things were done very quickly. In addition, the gardeners who came were not ordinary people. Those who could enter the plantation to work were all successful in martial arts.

The work here is relatively leisurely, and the spiritual energy in the plantation is abundant, which can also be of great benefit to them, martial arts practitioners. Therefore, entering the plantation to work is actually a reward for outstanding disciples in the martial arts academy.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, this ironwood tree has harvested a total of 12,000 kilograms of wheat. However, it still needs to be shelled and ground into powder, which requires some consumption." Soon, an official ran over to Feng Tianzong with an excited face to report the good news.

These officials are different from practitioners like Nong Mingquan. They understand more about the significance of the appearance of the ironwood tree to Da Shang.

Feng Tianzong waved his hand, and his magic power surged. The wheat grains quickly hulled and turned into powder.

In the face of his officials' congratulations, Feng Tianzong seemed very calm: "Go steam buns, pancakes, and noodles. Make more, and everyone can try it. What is the difference between the wheat produced by this ironwood tree and ordinary wheat?"

Soon a strong wheat aroma came over, which was different from ordinary white flour. Although the things made from ordinary white flour also had a wheat aroma, it was not so strong.

Feng Tianzong saw that several followers around him were desperately swallowing their saliva after smelling the smell. Even Nong Mingquan, a foundation-building cultivator who had long since stopped eating, moved his throat. Obviously, he also had an appetite now.

The first good thing was noodles, followed by scallion pancakes, and finally steamed buns. Feng Tianzong took the first bowl of noodles brought over by his subordinates. It was made by the imperial chef in the palace, and the craftsmanship was very good. A simple bowl of hot soup noodles made Feng Tianzong smell fragrant.

It is definitely a top-notch noodle dish with good color, aroma and taste. The meat in it is also monster meat, and this bowl of noodles is rich in nutrition.

Feng Tianzong picked up a chopstick of noodles and ate it in big mouthfuls. He couldn't stop eating it. It is indeed delicious, and you can also feel the faint spiritual energy contained in it.

However, such a little spiritual energy is really useless for his cultivation, and even for cultivators in the Qi Refining Period, it is not very useful, it is better than nothing.

But for those warriors below the Xiantian, this is definitely a tonic. This bowl of noodles is almost the same as the Baicao Dan that Feng Tianzong had refined before. However, compared with Baicao Dan, the spiritual energy contained in this kind of noodles is easier to absorb.

If this ironwood tree can be planted on a large scale, at least the national strength of Dashang can be increased several times. The martial arts strength of the people will be improved very quickly.

Don't look at the fact that the Baicao Dan made by Feng Tianzong is not very effective, it is very low-level, and the cultivators are too lazy to even look at it. Even dogs in the world of immortal cultivation would not eat it.

However, in Da Shang, not everyone can have it. Only students who can be admitted to the Martial Arts Academy can get a certain supply.

Therefore, this Baicaodan is also a very rare panacea in Da Shang. If it can be supplied to all the people, the national strength of Da Shang will be rapidly improved.

Although Feng Tianzong is preparing to build an alchemy workshop, even if the third sister takes office, it is not enough. Da Shang has a population of more than two million, and the Baicaodan needed is simply a huge amount.

But now with the ironwood tree, it is different. As long as the ironwood tree can be cultivated on a large scale, it can satisfy all the people of Da Shang.

Being an emperor is so cool. Feng Tianzong ate a full bowl of noodles by himself under the eyes of everyone.

No, most people don’t even have the qualifications to look at him. Only a few people have the qualifications to look at him, and others can only look at the ground.

"Come, everyone try it." Feng Tianzong put down the bowl and ordered. As an emperor, he doesn’t speak, and others can’t speak first.

Soon, someone brought a bowl of noodles and handed it to Nong Mingquan, who had the highest status among the people present. Then came the others. From the order of eating, it can be seen that the class is clearly divided.

This class distinction is advocated by Feng Tianzong. It can be clear in small matters, but in big matters, it must be equal. Killing someone means paying for his life, and debts must be paid. It is natural. Whether it is an official or a commoner, they are all equal in Feng Tianzong's place. They are all leeks that can pay him taxes.

"It's delicious, it's really delicious, Your Majesty, I didn't expect it to be possible. This magical power of accelerated growth is really playing its due role in your hands. In our Shencao Sect before, it was really a waste of money!" Nong Mingquan said flatteringly.

Feng Tianzong could hear that it was half flattery and half sincere.

"Okay, in the future, you will slowly transform our plantation and transform all these ironwoods into wheat trees. I will go back to design the formation now, and use the power of the formation to accelerate the growth of these ironwoods." Feng Tianzong ordered.

"Your Majesty, I really can't do it! You know, if you want to accelerate the growth of ironwood, my mana is not enough, and this plantation is too big, right?" Nong Mingquan wailed. This workload is unbearable for the donkeys in the farmers' homes!

"There is no need to accelerate the growth, that is the business of my formation. Your current job is to transform all these ironwood seedlings into wheat trees. These ironwoods are still seedlings and do not consume much mana.

And I don't want to have a harvest immediately. I will transform them first, and then use the power of the formation to make them grow slowly and accelerate.

It doesn't matter if there is no harvest now, as long as we do it now, there will be harvest in the future." Feng Tianzong said calmly.

His vision is not focused on the present. As a cultivator who can live forever, he does not need to worry about the fact that the predecessors planted trees and the future generations enjoyed the shade. He planted trees himself, and he would be able to enjoy the shade in the future.

So Feng Tianzong has a very long-term vision, focusing on the future, the next hundred years, or even a thousand years later. Prepare for a rainy day.

For ordinary cultivators, that is a very distant thing. They only care about their own cultivation, and it is not certain whether they can live to that time. But for Feng Tianzong, he will definitely live to that time.

"Collect all the flour harvested today and transport it to Weiyang Palace." Feng Tianzong ordered.

Although the spiritual energy contained in this flour is negligible and useless to him, it tastes good. In the future, Feng Tianzong will use this flour as a staple food every day.

And although these flours containing spiritual energy are useless to him, they are a great tonic for the women in his harem.

If there are any good things in Da Shang, they must be limited to supply the harem.

At the same time, he was also thinking about transplanting some spiritual plants with richer spiritual energy from the world of immortal cultivation, and then combining them with rice to strive to grow more advanced spiritual rice.

Thinking of the harem, Feng Tianzong suddenly thought of the third sister. When the third senior sister went to the harem, he was so happy that he took the old man Nong Mingquan and ran away, forgetting about the third senior sister. His dirty thoughts were all exposed in the harem. Let's not talk about anything else, just talking about the gauze clothes worn by the palace maids in the harem, what would the third senior sister think of him?
