Chapter 9: Glazed Immortal Eyes
In the following days, after Lin Jing learned the Spirit Nurturing Technique, he stopped his cultivation and devoted himself to reading various books to understand the world of immortality.
The main reason was that his cultivation efficiency was too low.
Compared to cultivating by himself, he was waiting for the Spirit Power feedback from the Pine Leaf Mouse after its breakthrough to enhance his own cultivation!
This was the normal way for disciples of the Beast Control Sect to become stronger.
Currently, although the Pine Leaf Mouse was not absorbing Spirit Qi normally, its frequent use of Spirit Power to accelerate the growth of spiritual rice was also a form of training for its Spirit Power.
After several days, the spiritual rice had grown tall and was close to maturing.
One had to admit that the talent of his Pine Leaf Mouse was indeed impressive.
From various books, Lin Jing learned that an ordinary Pine Leaf Mouse at the third level of Qi Refinement, without external assistance, would take about half a month to mature a stalk of spiritual rice.
However, his Pine Leaf Mouse had completed the task in less than half that time.Although he occasionally used a bit of true qi to relieve the Pine Leaf Mouse's mental fatigue through the Spirit Nurturing Technique, as a mere first level Qi Refinement practitioner, his help was minimal.
Fortunately, the Pine Leaf Mouse had cultivated extremely pure Spirit Power and was patient, never slacking off.
“You're simply a natural-born farming saint.” Lin Jing closed the book and generously praised the Pine Leaf Mouse, which was busy accelerating the growth of the spiritual rice.
“Zhi!”
Although the Pine Leaf Mouse did not understand what a natural-born farming saint was, it knew it was praise and became even more motivated.
With its emerald green eyes, it eagerly looked at a stalk of spiritual rice before it.
Buzz!
Not long after, the spiritual rice finally changed from a milky white to a golden color, emitting a rich rice aroma, which was a sign that it had matured!!
“Did it succeed?”
With the spiritual rice fully matured, Lin Jing immediately rushed to the side of the Pine Leaf Mouse and together they peeled back the rice husk, revealing translucent and plump white spiritual rice inside, looking incredibly tempting!
“In terms of quality, it’s not much different from the bag we received.”
Lin Jing’s heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed.
It was stable!
“Zhi Zhi Zhi!” The Pine Leaf Mouse nodded happily.
As expected of it.
Next, Lin Jing and the others immediately separated the remaining rice husks, and in the end, thousands of grains of spiritual rice appeared on the ground, gleaming brightly.
Looking at the pile of spiritual rice, Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Mouse were in an exceptionally good mood. Although this wouldn’t last long, it was a very good start.
The Pine Leaf Mouse looked at the pile of spiritual rice.
Then it looked at Lin Jing.
Its intention was clear.
“Storing food is a good habit.”
“However, we still need to eat these.”
“How about this, you can take 100 grains.”
As if seeing through the Pine Leaf Mouse’s thoughts, Lin Jing said with a smile.
After all, these were the results of the Pine Leaf Mouse’s hard work. Taking out 100 grains wasn’t a big deal and could satisfy the Pine Leaf Mouse’s hoarding habit.
They wouldn’t starve to death just because they took 100 grains away.
Who knows, if they were ever poor enough to eat dirt, those 100 grains might come in handy.
Let it hoard!
“Zhi……” As Lin Jing finished speaking, the Pine Leaf Mouse was overjoyed and immediately ran over to take 100 grains, setting them aside in a separate pile.
Although 100 grains of spiritual rice was not much,
Looking at this pile of rice that belonged to it, the Pine Leaf Mouse felt completely at ease, as if its energy pores had been opened, and its strength and Spirit Power surged.
However, just then, an unexpected change occurred.
The Pine Leaf Mouse’s emerald green eyes suddenly radiated a light, making its pupils shine like emeralds.
Then, in the panic of the Pine Leaf Mouse and the surprise of Lin Jing,
Two beams of emerald light shot from the Pine Leaf Mouse’s eyes.
They landed on the 100 grains of spiritual rice.
Immediately, something astonishing happened; wrapped in the green light, the 100 grains of spiritual rice vanished in an instant.
As the green light dissipated, what lay on the ground was a single new golden spiritual rice grain…
…………
At the same time.
In the mind of the Pine Leaf Mouse,
A mysterious inheritance message appeared.
It was as if a divine ability hidden in its bloodline had awakened.
Allowing it to understand without a teacher.
**"Glazed Immortal Eyes"**
Even a pile of worthless stones, when seen through the Glazed Immortal Eyes, would be transformed into precious glazed gems.
The Glazed Immortal Eyes could merge a certain quantity of the same type of resources into another precious resource.
Like a celestial technique, turning stone into gold.
…………
“Zhi?”
In the eyes of the Pine Leaf Mouse and Lin Jing, the 100 grains of white spiritual rice transformed into a single golden, mysterious spiritual rice grain.
Such a change shocked both Lin Jing and the Pine Leaf Mouse.
“I knew there was something special about the changes on the day of the contract.”
“You have indeed transformed from an ordinary spirit beast into a rare beast.”
“The divine ability of the rare beast is right here!”
Turning the rotten into the miraculous, like turning stone into gold; a method that turns quantitative changes into qualitative changes!
This golden spiritual rice grain looked obviously more valuable than the white spiritual rice!
Lin Jing couldn’t help but exclaim.
But the next moment, he couldn’t hold back.
He saw the Pine Leaf Mouse directly kneeling on the ground, picking up the golden spiritual rice grain, tears streaming down its face.
“Zhi!!!”
It didn’t want one golden spiritual rice grain; it wanted 100 grains of white spiritual rice!!!
Lin Jing twitched his mouth.
This little mouse seemed to have fallen into a deep obsession.
This golden spiritual rice looked much more precious!
Did it really care that much for its 100 grains of white spiritual rice?
“Alright.”
“I'll give you another 200 grains of white spiritual rice in exchange…”
Lin Jing was about to say that he would use 200 grains of ordinary spiritual rice to exchange for that golden spiritual rice grain for research.
Unexpectedly, the Pine Leaf Mouse, filled with sorrow, glared fiercely at the golden spiritual rice grain.
Then it bit down hard, crushing it and swallowing it!
As if to take revenge.
“Whoa, you just ate it like that.” Lin Jing was shocked again.
He didn’t even know its effects.
“A grain of golden spiritual rice formed from 100 grains of ordinary spiritual rice should, in theory, have effects more than 100 times that of ordinary spiritual rice, right?”
“Otherwise, this divine ability would be meaningless, and the so-called rare beast would be a misnomer.”
“It’s not as if it was 100 bowls of rice; it shouldn’t burst its stomach.”
Thinking of this, Lin Jing relaxed a bit.
“If its effects can rival that of a spirit stone, that would be great.”
Lin Jing had initially thought that this golden spiritual rice grain would be like a spirit stone, providing substantial benefits for cultivation.
Unfortunately, the reality was not so.
After consuming a grain of spirit-rich golden spiritual rice, the Pine Leaf Mouse’s eyes actually flashed with a hint of scarlet, and instead of feeling full, a strong sense of hunger spread throughout its heart.
Then, under Lin Jing’s silent gaze, it seemed like a starving ghost, with its stomach growling thunderously, rushing toward the pile of spiritual rice, madly stuffing the freshly produced spiritual rice into its mouth.
Due to the bloodline contract with the Pine Leaf Mouse, Lin Jing could sense its current state.
Hungry. Very hungry.
The effect of that golden spiritual rice was not to satiate hunger, but to induce a feeling of hunger in the consumer!
Driven by this hunger, the Pine Leaf Mouse went into a feeding frenzy, rapidly shoving spiritual rice into its mouth. In the past, it would have immediately been stuffed and unable to quickly digest the nutrition and Spirit Power within.
But this time, its digestive ability seemed to have undergone a terrifying enhancement. The entire pile of spiritual rice was swept away, and not only did it appear completely unaffected, but its own aura also continued to rise, as if… it had instantaneously digested all the nutrition of the spiritual rice and converted it into its own power!
Only after consuming everything did the Pine Leaf Mouse’s gluttonous frenzy gradually come to a halt, returning to a state of clarity…
“Enhanced digestive ability, rapid absorption of nutrients? The effect of the golden spiritual rice… is actually this powerful.” Lin Jing took a deep breath. This was much stronger than merely enhancing the quality of spiritual rice. What exactly was this rare beast’s divine ability…
Was it an inheritance of an immortal, transformed by an alien race due to starlight? Could this be considered a form of immortal inheritance?
“Regardless, as Elder Mo said, rare beasts are indeed incredibly powerful. We won’t be short on money in the future.” He sighed.
However… Lin Jing was happy, but when the Pine Leaf Mouse regained consciousness and saw that all its hard-earned spiritual rice had vanished, it widened its eyes in confusion, including the 200 grains Lin Jing had just given it… all of it was gone.
The plan to hoard food was shattered once again!
“Zhi!!!!” In the courtyard, the Pine Leaf Mouse let out a heart-wrenching cry. What a useless divine ability, it can’t hoard anything at all! Why couldn’t it awaken a spatial
divine ability!!!
