Chapter 967 Demon Emperor Essence
Under the effect of [Crazy Growth], the plants in the [Black Tower] grew ten thousand times faster. As a result, the heavy ears of wheat fell naturally and merged into the black soil to become seeds, and the cycle began again.
What does ten thousand times the speed mean?
The crops in the [Black Tower] can be harvested four times a year, with an average cycle of three months for each cycle.
The skill [Crazy Growth] is indeed worthy of its name. It can increase the speed of crops by 10,000 times. That is, the maturity period of crops that take three months to mature will only take...
12.96 minutes!
One round can mature in thirteen minutes!
This growth rate can only be described as "crazy".
And this was just Mo Cheng's conscious control. He could feel that this was not the limit of [Crazy Growth]. If he wanted, he could even increase the speed even higher.
But Mo Cheng did not do so, because at this time the soil power contained in the fertile land in the [Black Tower] has reached the limit of what it can support. If the speed continues to increase, no one knows what will grow.
[Crazy Growth] lasted for three rounds. After half an hour, Mo Cheng slowly retracted the hexagram ice crystal. It was not that he did not want to continue, but the soil's energy had been almost exhausted.
Someone was hired to inspect the crops that were grown, and the conclusion was that they were edible and their efficacy was not compromised.
After hearing this conclusion, Ling Ying looked at Mo Cheng with a very strange look.
"Was that the ability of the [Exotic Treasure] just now?"
Mo Cheng nodded, "That's right, but inducing birth consumes too much earth power. If I didn't know that your earth power can be replenished through the Nine Heavens Star Power, I wouldn't dare to use this ability."
Just three rounds of ripening will use up all the land's fertility that can produce four crops a year. This is obviously a loss and not cost-effective in the long run, but in fact it cannot be calculated in this way.
Because food is urgently needed, instead of waiting for half a year and adding unnecessary variables to the war situation, it is better to directly consume the land to produce three rounds of crops.
After getting the accurate answer, Ling Ying took a deep breath and said, "This treasure is unparalleled in the world. It is really terrifying."
Mo Cheng didn't know what he had just done, but Ling Ying knew its meaning.
The crops that were just ripened were not ordinary crops. In fact, all the crops planted in the [Black Tower] were spiritual crops, such as spiritual rice and spiritual fruits. Although due to the production volume, the efficacy of these crops could not compare with the spiritual objects grown in the wild, they were also real spiritual crops.
Even the lowest level of spiritual crops are beyond ordinary things.
These crops are mainly supplied to the monks in the city. Monks with low cultivation levels can even improve their cultivation levels by eating spiritual rice.
At the same time, the monks stationed in the city mainly cultivate qi and blood or the evil spirit of the military formation. These monks do not have the concept of "fasting". Ordinary food is difficult to replenish, so they need spiritual rice to supplement it.
It is well known that spiritual crops have spiritual energy of their own, even if it is only a little bit, so they are not affected by a series of growth-inducing spells such as [The Art of Harvest] and [The Art of Pulling Up Seedlings].
Because the essence of this type of spell is to use spiritual energy to stimulate the growth of crops, it will disrupt the spiritual energy that the spiritual crops themselves possess, thus causing the seedlings to die.
Then just now, Mo Cheng not only ripened a batch of spiritual plants in front of Ling Ying, but also ripened them three times.
Even if they were disciples of the [Farming Family], they could only shorten the time it took for spiritual crops to mature, but there was no way they could mature three times .
Thinking of this, Ling Ying couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. She knew very well that if there were any functions of the [exotic treasure] in Mo Cheng's hand that had not yet been discovered...
No, just based on the abilities it has demonstrated so far, this [exotic treasure] is enough to cause greedy people to scramble for it.
The food that was produced has been collected. Mo Cheng went to the other two [Black Towers] to produce food again. After using it several times, Mo Cheng has roughly figured out the ability of this [Crazy Growth].
This is an amazing skill. With Mo Cheng's current strength, he can completely permanently change a certain terrain and ecosystem.
As long as he wanted, he could create a forest in the desert, or build an island on the sea by entangled trees.
The limit of [Crazy Growth] is not yet clear, but what is certain is that this skill is much more effective in some places than simply binding the enemy.
After exhausting the land power of the three [Black Towers], Mo Cheng silently watched how the [Black Tower] drew the Nine Heavens Star Power to infuse the earth. While watching, Ling Ying's hesitant question came from behind, "You actually have learned a lot from many schools of thought, right?"
Mo Cheng remained silent. Although he had attributed many of his extraordinary abilities to the [exotic treasure], what he had demonstrated could not be explained by being a mere [Jixia student].
Not to mention that the abilities that Mo Cheng has demonstrated these days are within the realm of what the Jixia Academy would never teach.
"There are many conflicts among the hundreds of schools of thought. If you try to forcibly unify them, you will easily go astray."
Ling Ying looked at Mo Cheng with some worry. The more schools of thought one practices, the more serious the conflicts among the doctrines will be. Once an irreversible conflict really happens, the parties involved will either have to disperse their power and give up all their cultivation, or wait to self-destruct in the madness of the conflict.
The last guy who was well-versed in all schools of thought, obsessed with evil, and the most famous was the Demon Emperor.
And speaking of the Demon Emperor...
Ling Ying glanced to the side, not looking at Mo Cheng anymore, and spoke some information as if she was talking to herself, "The Demon Emperor has always been fond of women, and has abducted many women from various sects and holy places, and combined with celestial phenomena and other factors, he intends to give birth to the strongest and most perfect cultivator in the world."
"The Ten-Direction Demon Bandits attacked the Nanli Dao Territory because the fundamental skills they practiced were compiled by the Demon Emperor and contained huge hidden dangers. That is why they tried to enter the Demon Emperor's Tomb at all costs after knowing it had been revealed."
"What the Ten Directions Demon Bandits want to find is probably the Demon Emperor's Essence, which is the result of the Demon Emperor's cultivation and the teachings of hundreds of schools of thought. They want to use the Demon Emperor's Essence to make up for the shortcomings of their fundamental skills."
At this point, Ling Ying paused for a while, and then continued, "It is said that the [Essence of the Demon Emperor] is the product of the Demon Emperor's cultivation and the teachings of hundreds of schools. Therefore, through the [Essence of the Demon Emperor], one can also display the magical powers of hundreds of schools."
Mo Cheng now understood something, "So some people suspect that I am the descendant of the Demon Emperor, and then..."
He pointed at the six-pointed star ice crystal in his hand, "Do you still doubt that my [exotic treasure] is that [Devil Emperor Essence]?"
After being treated as someone else's disciple, I was then treated as someone else's son. I really don't know how to describe this feeling.
