Pick up the treasure bag and start cultivating immortals from the shrinking lamp.

Chapter 42: First Battle of Childhood Friends
The Sinong Palace has two choices for the spiritual plant farmers who go to the Shiwanda Mountains to open up wasteland.

One is to plant the already cultivated high-quality spiritual fields, with the area of ​​fields ranging from ten to thirty acres.

The second is to reclaim wasteland and turn it into spiritual fields.

It is not easy to cultivate a spiritual field. One needs to use spiritual cultivation techniques to warm the soil so that it becomes spiritual and can absorb the spiritual energy floating in the air.

Quite time-consuming and laborious.

This is also the reason why the sect rent is so high, and why so many outer disciples are flocking to it and are willing to become spiritual farmers.

Naturally, the sect also provides subsidies in this regard.

Spiritual plant masters who are willing to open up new land can give priority to a small mountain peak rather than the plains at the foot of the mountain.

After all, the spiritual energy on the mountain is much higher than that on the plains.

Secondly, there are also some discounts on rent.

Especially in the early stages when the spiritual fields have not yet been cultivated, basically no rent is collected.

After the land is cultivated, corresponding spiritual seeds will also be provided.

Xia Chen naturally chose the second option.

Soon, Yue Qing brought a contract document.

"The barren mountain you are reclaiming is Qingzhu Peak of Ziyun Mountain. You don't need to pay rent for the first three years. In the next three years, the amount of land you reclaim must be more than ten acres, otherwise the Ministry of Agriculture will take back the barren mountain."

Xia Chen looked over the contract document carefully and found nothing missing, so he signed his name.

"There are many poisonous insects, snakes and rats in the Shiwan Mountains. Junior Brother Xia, you should bring more detoxification pills, anti-malaria pills and the like when you go there." Yue Qing kindly reminded.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Yue!"

Xia Chen bowed and then left the Sinong Hall.

After returning to the Xuzihao shantytown, he began to pack up his belongings and put everything in the wallpaper room.

Even the daily necessities such as bamboo beds, bamboo houses, bamboo stools and bamboo tables were not left behind.

After all, Qingzhu Mountain is a barren mountain, so don't expect to find caves or anything like that. You need to build them yourself.

If he wasn't afraid of causing trouble, he would have planned to shrink the bamboo house and pack it up and take it away.

At noon the next day, Xia Chen hosted a banquet for several good neighbors, such as Zhang Wang and others.

Even Zhou Hai was invited.

After all, he is the captain of the night patrol team in the Xu-shaped shantytown, so he still has to do his job well.

After finishing his meal, Xia Chen left the shantytown and headed for the Shiwanda Mountains, eight hundred miles away.

Just when he was thirty miles away from Cuiwei Mountains, he felt someone following him.

"Captain Zhou, you are following me stealthily. Are you reluctant to let me go?" Xia Chen laughed.

There was silence.

"If you don't come out, you won't have a chance!"

Five breaths later, a masked monk flew over from not far away.

He took off the mask, and it turned out to be Zhou Hai who was drinking and chatting happily just now!

"I've been to the Chenzi shantytown in Xiaocangshan, and there's no such person as Li Gui. It seems that Li Gui and you are one and the same!"

Zhou Hai sneered and said, "No wonder you and 'Li Gui' have never appeared at the same time!"

"We are both members of the Xu-shaped shantytown, so why did Captain Zhou try to kill us again and again?"

Xia Chen sighed.

"Two years ago, you were just a waste at the third level of Qi Refining. Now you have become a spiritual plant master, and you have changed your appearance and possessed a fire magic weapon. It seems that you have inherited the legacy of a great cultivator. Hand it over, and I may be able to spare your life!"

Zhou Hai said coldly.

Xia Chen asked with great interest: "Since you think I have a fortuitous encounter, why do you dare to come here alone? Aren't you afraid that I might get some powerful magical instruments or talismans?"

"You have adventures, but I don't?"

Zhou Hai laughed and patted the yellow robe on his body. Suddenly, wisps of hazy smoke enveloped him and he could not see clearly.

"This is a top-grade robe with unparalleled defensive power. I got it by chance. What can you do to me?" "Top-grade robe?"

Xia Chen was slightly stunned.

Dharma robes are rarer than ordinary magic tools. Even ordinary cultivators in the foundation-building stage can own a top-quality Dharma robe.

But he nodded and smiled, "This robe is nice, but I don't like wearing dead people's clothes!"

"court death!"

Zhou Hai was furious. He pinched his hands together and suddenly a sword light appeared, like lightning, illuminating the void and slashing towards Xia Chen.

It turned out to be a mid-grade magical weapon.

Xia Chen also took out a green-bladed long sword and swung it repeatedly. The magic power passed through the sword body and condensed into a sword light with extremely lethality, which pierced through directly. This area was actually completely covered by the sword light.

This is also a mid-grade magic sword, which was obtained from the ugly-faced monk.

The two of them only took over for a short while, but the difference between them was already apparent.

Xia Chen's sword was unpredictable. In just a few breaths, he chopped, cut, shaved, pressed, washed, stabbed, picked, drilled, and spun...

With each stroke, the force is concentrated on one point without any waste.

This is the "Wanhua Guiyuan Sword Technique", which was tailor-made for him by the computer pencil.

Even though Zhou Hai had a mid-grade magic sword, he only practiced the most common "Yi Mu Sword Technique". How could he fight against it?
However, this top-grade robe is truly powerful. No matter how sharp Xia Chen's sword is, it can never break through the defense of the smoke and cloud.

This made Zhou Hai extremely arrogant and he kept swearing.

Xia Chen also got a little angry. He raised his right hand and a wallpaper appeared.

Then, a golden "crutch" flew out from the wallpaper, shining brightly, and hit the smoke cloud hard.

Zhou Hai only felt a huge force coming out of the smoke and cloud, shaking his internal organs and making them feel very uncomfortable.

"What kind of magical weapon is this, and why is it so heavy?"

He was shocked.

But the golden "crutch" came like raindrops, one after another.

Zhou Hai had no choice but to try his best to activate the top-grade robes on his body.

But as the force grew stronger, the smoke and clouds could no longer hold on and dissipated!
boom!
The golden "crutch" hit Zhou Hai's back hard. He felt a black screen in front of his eyes and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"Do not kill me!"

Just when Xia Chen was about to sacrifice his childhood sweetheart and kill him in one fell swoop, Zhou Hai begged for mercy.

"Don't kill me, as long as you spare my life, I can give you anything!"

Zhou Hai was completely scared.

Every blow of the golden cane was like a small mountain.

If this hits me again, I'm afraid I'll be beaten into a pulp.

"Oh? Seriously?"

Xia Chen seemed to be somewhat interested.

"If you let me go, this storage bag will be yours. It contains all my treasures!" Zhou Hai took out a gray bag.

Xia Chen nodded and said, "After all, you are the captain of the night patrol team recognized by the Sinong Palace. It is indeed inappropriate to kill you. Hand over your storage bag and high-quality robes, and I will spare your life!"

After hearing this, Zhou Hai immediately felt relieved.

He quickly took off his robes and handed them over along with his storage bag.

Xia Chen waved his hand, collected the two things, left a sentence "Take care of yourself", and left.

Looking at Xia Chen disappearing into the sky, Zhou Hai's eyes revealed a deep murderous intent:
"This isn't over yet! I can't do anything to you, but there's always someone who can kill you!"

At this moment, not far away, a two-foot-long, inconspicuous green grass shook its leaves, and dozens of sword energies burst out.

Zhou Hai was shot into a sieve immediately.
