Just as Zhong Yi was feeling slightly disappointed, text once again appeared before him:
【Some of your farmland has been upgraded to Spirit Fields!】
【Spiritual energy is being continuously gathered…】
Zhong Yi lowered his head to glance at the ground beneath him.
Upon closer inspection, the barren field was divided into five rows.
The central row, previously desolate, was now covered in lush greenery, with faint golden spiritual energy rising from the soil.
"So it really is a Spirit Field."
Zhong Yi was curious—why was this being pointed out to him so abruptly?
At the same time, he noticed a number appear in the upper-left corner: one hundred fifty.
"One hundred fifty? What does this mean?"
Zhong Yi was puzzled once more.
The floating prompt continued:
【Occasionally, plants awakened with spiritual consciousness may appear in the air.】
A new wave of fruits descended.
Among them was a golden-glowing pea pod, likely the "spirit plant" mentioned in the prompt.
Without hesitation, Zhong Yi swung his blade, slicing apart all the fruits and plants.
【Do not destroy spirit plants. Use the back of your blade to guide them onto the Spirit Field—you may reap unexpected rewards…】
"……"
Zhong Yi clenched his fists in frustration.
Why the hell didn’t you say so earlier?!
It’s already been chopped to bits!!!
Fortunately, the next wave of fruits quickly refreshed, and another spirit plant—a pea pod—appeared.
This time, Zhong Yi avoided the pea pod and used the flat of his blade to adjust its trajectory, ensuring it landed precisely on the row of Spirit Field soil.
The moment it touched the spiritual earth,
the pea pod swiftly transformed into a Peashooter with beady eyes and a pointed mouth.
The number in the upper-left corner dropped from one hundred fifty to fifty.
At the same time, the golden spiritual energy from the Spirit Field coalesced into a radiant orb, flying automatically toward Zhong Yi.
With a soft "gulp,"
the number in the upper-left corner increased by twenty-five, rising to seventy-five.
"I get it now!"
Zhong Yi’s eyes lit up with realization.
"The number in the corner represents the spiritual energy generated by the Spirit Field. Growing spirit plants consumes a set amount of energy—the number beneath each plant is its cost!"
In this regard, Zhong Yi’s comprehension was remarkably sharp.
The earlier disappointment had completely faded.
A vague intuition stirred within him—
This illusion…
was anything but ordinary!
It might even overturn the entire Lingxiao Sect…
No!
The entire cultivation world!
Before him, the prompts continued:
【Outside your farm, a horde of zombies eyes you with malice…】
【Stop their advance!】
The moment the prompt vanished, Zhong Yi saw the zombies near the Spirit Field begin to move.
His heart clenched at first, but then he couldn’t help but feel exasperated at their limping, sluggish pace.
He half-expected these elderly zombies to trip over pebbles and perish before even reaching the field…
"But how exactly am I supposed to kill them?"
Zhong Yi pinched his chin, deep in thought.
His only weapon was the sword in his hand.
Yet when he tested it, he found he couldn’t harm the zombies with it.
His range of movement was severely limited—he could only slash at falling fruits and plant spirit crops in midair.
Fruits and spirit plants rained down relentlessly, demanding his attention.
Zhong Yi kept slicing while racking his brain for a solution.
Soon, the shambling zombies reached the edge of the Spirit Field.
Just as Zhong Yi grew anxious, hoping for another prompt,
the Peashooter in the field spat out a round pea from its mouth.
The pea shot like an arrow, striking a zombie square in the forehead and leaving a visible crack.
"!!!"
Zhong Yi’s eyes widened in shock and delight.
Suddenly, he understood exactly how this illusion worked!
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
